I like to put humor in my work... Um.. That's all I have to say I'm kinda tired.


I had fallen asleep on An and Un. We were moved on as I slept. I'm surprised I didn't wake up! My eyes fluttered as I woke up. I sat up on the two headed dragon, and scratched my head. "Lord Sesshomaru, Chilo has finally woken up." Rin announced as she followed close by the dog demon.

"Hey, Sesshomaru I have a question. How can I learn if nobody teaches me? I don't know my potential yet but you do! That's kinda selfish don't you think?" I asked boldly. It was a dumb question, but what else could I do? Sesshomaru paused. So did everyone else including myself. He turned to look at me for a long moment. This reminds me when my science teacher used to stare at me literally for a minute if I didn't get an important assignment turned in.

"The real question is if you can train yourself. I have no intention on spending my time teaching you. All I have to give is advice. What do you believe you are capable of...?"

I stared back at him dumbfounded. He was right. The only way I could learn is by teaching myself.


InuYasha and the gang had just woken up at dawn getting ready to pack up so they could continue on with their journey. Kagome had noticed something was missing. "Hey, InuYasha, don't you just have that feeling we've forgotten something?" She asked him. InuYasha pondered for a second.

"Yeah, now since you've mentioned it."

Miroku looked around. "Where's Chilo? I believe that's what is missing here." Sango agreed, "Yeah. It seems she's gone somewhere else. I haven't seen her all morning." Kiara meowed. InuYasha went over to the tree I had slept in. He sniffed around and sighed.

"Sesshomaru took her. I can smell 'em." He announced.

"Maybe she decided to get training from him because you're such a bad trainer.." Shippo said. InuYasha punched him in the head, HARD. "Idiot." The hanyou growled.


Teach yourself...

I laid on my back watching the clouds go by in a grassy field, letting the soft wind flow through my hair. I noticed a butterfly fluttering around near me. In a split second, faster than your eye could blink, I caught the butterfly with my hands. I cupped my hands around it, and let it flutter around in my hands trying to escape.

"I really don't have interest in power. Why should I teach myself when I have no interest in fighting?" I grumbled to myself. "I feel about as trapped as this butterfly." I sighed as I let it go. Dazed, I watched it fly off in the wind.

I'm so hungry I can literally eat a horse..

I licked my fangs and put a hand to my stomach. It was growling like you couldn't believe. After a while I couldn't take it anymore. I got up and walked into the forest. Sesshomaru was meditating as Rin watched him. Jaken tried to find traces of Naraku with his staff. My fangs stood out of my mouth as I walked past Jaken. I was craving something to kill and eat.

"Where do you think you're going?" Sesshomaru asked flatly without looking.

"I'm going to wind up thinking about eating humans from that village we're right next to IF I don't eat something in the next 5 minutes."

Rin's eyes lit up as she remembered something. "Oh yeah! I forgot! There's as stream near by." She got up and followed close after me. Sesshomaru kept meditating on thinking of places where Naraku might be hiding.

"Me lord..." Jaken started to ask.

"What is it, Jaken. Can't you see I'm trying to concentrate."

The toad blinked.

"Something has been bothering me about how Chilo can be your sibling. Seeing how young she looks, she looks like the youngest! How can she be younger than InuYasha, and be your sister, if your father had died right afterward? It just makes no sense!"

"Did I say she is my sister?"

"No, Me lord, but it is very apparent to me that she is."

Sesshomaru suddenly threw a stone at Jaken's head.

"She is my sister you idiot. But InuYasha is the eldest. Half-breeds age like mortals, and Chilo is full fledged. It'd disappointing how you are so ignorant."

Jaken rubbed the newly formed giant bump on his head.

"Sorry me lord..."

Sesshomaru then sensed something in the forest. Some kind of demon. Before Jaken knew it, Sesshomaru disappeared in the forest. Jaken franticly scurried around in circles, "Lord Sesshomaru where'd you go?! Don't leave me here!!!" The dog demon rolled his eyes, leaving the toad behind as he usually did.


My footprints in the soft soil made a slight footprint as I walked along. Rin hopped with one foot landing on each of my footprints as she hummed a cheerful tune.

"I don't see any river, Rin. Are you sure you saw one near by?"

I was growing impatient and more hungry every second. Rin stopped to think.

"I'm not sure now... I saw one somewhere. Maybe it wasn't in the forest."

I wanted to yell at her, but I have a soft spot for children. That, and if Sesshomaru found out something had happened to Rin he'd kill me. I breathed, "Come on.." Rin caught up with me. "So, are you Lord Sesshomaru's sister?" I blinked. "I guess so..." I answered not even sure myself. "We'll chat after we get something to eat.." Something made me stop in my tracks.

I felt movement beneath my feet. It grew stronger and stronger until it felt like an earthquake! I staggered and planted my feet to the ground. Rin got on her knees and held onto my arm. A giant snake demon appeared in front of us. It was about a hundred feet high, and had poisonous fangs. I stood up, and Rin let go.

"Hide between a tree or something, kid." The girl nodded and did as she was told. The snake demon hissed, "How dare you think you can just stroll through my territory!" I grinned.

This is a great opportunity to use the only power I'm good at right now...

"How dare you get in my face." I said smoothly with a big smirk on my face.

"Smart talk isn't gonna save you! Die!"

The demon struck at me but buried its face in dirt. I jumped backward and collected demonic energy into my hands. They then started to glow orange. The snake hissed. I whipped out one acid whip out of each hand and struck fast as lightning several times. The snake glared at me as I landed.

"Is that all you've-"

It stared out in blank space.

It fell in pieces and flesh fell everywhere as it died. "Woh!" Rin said in awe as she ran to me.

"Sesshomaru has the same thing, but your whips are orange!"

I smiled, holding up my wrist.

"Actually his is a laser-like whip I think. Mine's acid."

"Actually it's neon energy charged lightning."

Sesshomaru said as he hopped down a tree Rin was right under. "Lord Sesshomaru! Did you see what Chilo did?" Rin smiled. I looked at him."I wanted to see what you remembered. You have progressed I can give you that much." He said as he walked off. Rin watched him leave. She turned to me. "Maybe I'll remember some more on an empty stomach." I chuckled.

I suddenly smelt something nearby. It as moving. I sniffed the air. "What is it?" The girl looked around. I put my ear to the ground. I sensed shallow foot prints to my right. Rin squatted, looking at me curiously.

"What is it?"

"Shhhhhhhhh..."

I heard a snorting sound and ruffling leaves. I jumped up. It was a warthog!

"PIG!!!" I squealed. It noticed me running towards it. Out of instinct, it snarled and rampaged at me in defense.

"AAAGH!!"


Sesshomaru came back to Jaken and An Un.

"Lord Sesshomaru, where'd you go to?"

He didn't say anything as he sat back down to meditate. "Chilo's been gone for a while now, me lord. What do you suppose she's doing now?" Jaken asked. The dog demon flicked something out of his claws.

"She's now discovering her powers once again. She'll be powerful once she finds her full potential. Yet when it comes to getting a meal, she's making Rin look useful."

"What do you mean by that?" Jaken asked confused.

Right then, that warthog that charged after me was squealing as it stampeded, bucking around like a bull out of the forest right in front of Sesshomaru and Jaken with me hanging on for dear life. I cursed at the pig, trying to gain control of the wild animal.

I snarled, "YOU DUMB PIG STAY STILL SO I CAN EAT YOU!!"

Jaken choked, "Ok I see what you mean now." Rin sat down next to Sesshomaru. He was sighing in disappointment in his mind watching me wrestle a wild pig like a neanderthal.

"She seems desperate." Rin commented.

"Can't you help her, Lord Sesshomaru?"

"She must learn things on her own."

Rin looked back at me in curiosity. She found it a little funny seeing me wrestling a pig!

"AAGHHH!!"

The pig jumped off a rocky sloped cliff. Both me and the wild animal rolled down the rough terrain. Rin ran over to the edge and got on her knees. She watched me and the stupid animal fall into a shallow river on our heads.

"Now I know where I saw a river! It was off this cliff!"

The collision killed the pig, and gave me a giant lump on my head. Sesshomaru and Jaken stood behind Rin and looked down. I looked up with a big sheepish grin on my face.

"I killed it!"

The animal's muscles twiched. I screamed and kicked its head, making me fall in the water again. I jumped out and shook around like a dog. Rin laughed.


I'm a little tea pot short and stout! Here is my handle here is my spout!

... Whatever.
