Last time: Kagome sighed and placed a hand over her eyes, "Miroku you really messed up this time. Sango might have been able to put up with your lecherous ways while you still had the wind tunnel but now that Naraku's gone you have no excuse."
"While I think I have a great excuse for not going after her to apologize," the monk moaned. "I can't move."
Yuki walked forward and stood over the fallen monk. "You're lucky that Vitanie let her anger out on you before I could. I would have killed you before stopping," he spat before walking out the door to find Vitanie. Hiroshi and Kagome also rose and left leaving the monk lying on the floor in pain.
Vitanie stalked threw the village scaring everyone around out seeing an angry demon walking by. She ignored them all and just continued out toward the forest just past the last hut. When she entered the trees she finally slowed down and began trying to cool her temper down when she felt someone watching her.
She followed the feeling and stopped just inside a clearing where she found Inuyasha sitting up on a branch in a dead tree glaring at her.
She just glared back at him as she snapped, "What's your problem!"
She got another 'feh' before he snapped back, "I don't have to answer to you, you stupid cat!"
Vitanie started at the insult and then started to laugh, "Is that the best you can come up with? Stupid cat? Man at least Yuki get a little more creative and Hiroshi forces me to fall asleep with his music, but you got is stupid." Before she was able to finish she had to grab her sides from laughing. When she finally got control she looked up at Inuyasha and saw that he was staring at her with surprise and confusion written all over his face. That just made her laugh even more.
When she got control of herself she jumped up and landed on the end of the branch in front of him.
"What do you think you're doing up her!" he exclaimed once he found his voice again. "Get down!"
"No," she replied with a twitch of a smile. She was enjoying getting Inuyasha riled up.
He noticed the small smile and stood up to face her before yelling, "GET OUT OF THIS TREE NOW!"
Vitanie just smiled all the more when she sat down on the branch looking off over the land and trees around them.
------
Yuki followed Vitanie's scent until right before the clearing where she and Inuyasha where have mostly a nonverbal argument so far. He stopped and watched with a small smile when he heard Inuyasha yell at her and all she did was sit down which was exactly the opposite of what the half demon wanted.
She trying to tick him off just like she does with m, he thought with amusement then he leaned back against a nearby tree to watch and see just how much she was willing to tick off the short tempered half demon.
-------
Vitanie just listened to him yell for a bit. He was basically saying the same thing over and over again, get out of the tree and leave me alone. She smiled a little smugly; this is even easier then getting Yuki upset.
When he stopped for a breath she inserted very calmly, "We aren't here for the shikon jewel."
He was just about to yell start yelling again when he heard the comment and it made him stumble a little which caused him to lose his footing and fall right out of the tree. Vitanie saw him slip and jumped down after him. Standing there with a smile when he got his feet back under him with a huff.
"Well I think I got your attention again, so maybe I should repeat that. We don't want the shikon jewel. I can actually care less for it. All I want is to find the elemental stone of spirit bore someone else does," she stated simply. "And I can tell you that shikon jewel that you are so interested in is not the jewel I'm looking for."
"Then what are you doing here, if the stone you want isn't here then get out of here," he grumbled still upset that she caught him off guard and made him fall.
She glanced over at him and saw that the fall had actually cooled his temper a little and knew that he might actually listen to her. Even though he had been rude to her she hadn't meet another half demon before.
"Usually I would leave, but we've been searching for two years and haven't found anything. Our search has led us to Kaede and I might have gotten some information about the stone if that perverted monk hadn't asked me to bare his children and then grab my butt," she snarled.
Inuyasha nearly fell to the ground in shock. "You mean he asked you that?" Then more to himself, "Sango going to kill him.
She saw the shock and amusement pass over him before the regular more surly expression replaced it. "I don't know what Sango will do to him, but I left him on the floor unable to walk for awhile. Unfortunately he seemed to have some information on the stone. But I much rather continue hunting aimlessly then ask him," she sighed in frustration.
After that was said she heard Hiroshi playing his lyre coming closer to where they were, she also sensed Kagome with him and Yuki she had known for sometime was just outside the clearing.
"They're coming this way," she commented.
Inuyasha decided that he had had enough and with a 'feh' jumped into the tree. Once he was leaning against the trunk again waiting for Kagome to enter the clearing he smiled slightly to himself, this might be interesting.
When Kagome and Hiroshi entered the clearing followed shortly by Yuki Kagome spoke up, "I'm sorry about Miroku, we were hoping he would stop doing that now. And he's never asked a half demon that before, at least not knowingly."
Hiroshi smiled at that and then turned to Vitanie, "Vee what is it with you getting all the guys attention. First my parents try to marry us off, then Sen keeps watching over you," he paused for a second and glanced over a Yuki but decided not to say anything directly about him. "Then you have all of Yuki's pack protecting you, and now a human monk. Maybe we should lock you away so no more guys fall for your charms," he teased playing a happy, springy little tune.
"Maybe I should just carry my staff again and hit every guy over the head and save myself the trouble," she retorted sharply even though she had a smile on her face. "But that means I would have to keep hitting you and Yuki and I don't think I want to carry both of you guys everywhere."
Before Hiroshi could joke back Yuki spoke up, "So are we going to get the information here or are we leaving?"
Vitanie sighed in frustration, Inuyasha smirked up in his tree, and Hiroshi glanced over at Vee. But it was Kagome who spoke up.
"Please come back to the hut, we'll make sure that Miroku behaves himself and he did seem to have some information that might help you."
After a minute of thought Vitanie agreed, "Fine, but one move from him and I can't guarantee his safety." Kagome grimaced a little not wanting to see one of her friends get hurt, but nodded.
"I understand, but I think we should go find Sango and have her there to help Miroku in line. He wont be as likely to try anything else with her around."
"It didn't seem to stop his last time but alright. Let's go."
With that Inuyasha jumped down from his tree and walked next to Kagome, Vitanie was on the other side of her listening to the young priestess. Hiroshi continued playing his lyre absentmindedly behind them with Yuki bringing up the rear. The wolf demon stopped and took one last look around the clearing and shivered. Ever since they had come near this forest and village he had the feeling they were being watched. He didn't like it one bit.
Well that's all for know. Sorry it's been a few days, but I've been busy with work. And then every time I tried to write this chapter today the phone started to ring. That would throw me off and then I would have to try to remember what I was thinking before the interruption.
If you haven't noticed my main character has the same name as me. I used her name as my pen name; she is my main inspiration right now. I have another story with my original characters in it while they're looking for the other elemental stones. So far they only found the wind stone but I'm getting there. I decided that I would join the Inu group with my group as an alternate way for them to find the spirit stone and fight their major enemy (He already made an appearance in my original story, but I haven't found a name for him yet).
Please review, this is my first fanfic and I want to know what people think of my writing. If I don't get any reviews I wont update anymore. Thank you for reading so far.
