"Hey Inuyasha watch where you put your hand. You smelly mutt!" Koga griped

"What do you mean watch where I put my hand? My hand is in your hand. That's where it's suppose to be for Sesshomaru's plan to work" Inuyasha replied matter-of-factly

"Fine. But I still am very creeped out by it. Can't I at least hold hands with Zakuro." Koga pleaded

"Nope. I'm good over here next to Mint and Lettuce. You know yay girl power." Zakuro replied

"Okay guys, I really don't think us standing in this corridor arguing is really getting us anywhere. We could get ambushed at any second" Mint said

"Let's go then!" Inuyasha yelled as he began to run forward. His companions struggled to keep up with him as they were accidentally thrust against walls.

Suddenly Inuyasha's foot got caught in a bucket and he tumbled backwards dragging everyone with him. There were in a pile and had knocking over a Bonzai tree. Mint and Shippo landed in the koi pond. A koi flopped on Mint's head laboring to get back into the water.

"Gross get it off me!" Mint screeched

Without warning, the sky grew dark and gray clouds rolled in. A flash on lighting appeared in the sky directed Inuyasha and friends.

"I didn't mean electrocute it off of me!" Mint yelled with more panic in her voice

"Run!" Miroku yelled

"Everyone head back to the corridors" Lettuce hurriedly said

The lighting stuck the tree stump. As quickly as it as come the sky returned to its normal blue. An orange oval looking creature and a tall human popped out of the skinny tree stump.

"I didn't know hamster demon's existed" Inuyasha said puzzled

"I'm no hamster! I'm the Lorax. I speak for the tree's." he replied

"I'm the Once-ler. I hope you didn't chop down this tree because then the Lorax will harass you." he said drawing on personal experience

"We more of tripped and it broke our fall." Kagome replied

"That seems like a more terrible fate. To be squished to death by a bunch of people than chopped down. But since it was an accident, we will be on our way. Just don't ruin anymore trees!" The Lorax said as they began to float away

"Well that was bizarre." Taki said

"Re-ameba!" Inuyasha yelled as he grabbed Kagome's and Koga's hands and began running. Everyone scrambled to regroup up.

"Not another bucket!" Inuyasha yelped as he tripped once again this time crashing and ripping apart a rice paper wall.
