Chapter IV: Further Understandings or a Lack Thereof

Flesheater777: Well, it seems that I got out of the Wind Tunnel okay, though two of the best sensei I ever known are forever lost to us.

Miroku: And not a moment too soon! Kagome and I couldn't tell this story with a 16-year old's head sticking out of my hand. Hey, wait a minute, how could you get stuck in the Wind Tunnel? It's supposed to absorb anything, any size, no matter what!

Flesheater777: I am an author. My power here is infinite. As the Wind Tunnel struggled to reduce my size, I was constantly increasing my size at 1.5 times the rate of reduction, therefore making it impossible for me to pass through the Wind Tunnel.

Miroku: Huh?

Kagome: Shouldn't we be getting on with the story?

Flesheater777: Yes, yes, no time to argue the improbability of my power in this story. Lady Kagome, why don't you start?

Kagome: Uhhh... Only if you don't interrupt!

Flesheater777: As you wish.

Kagome: ...Ummm... Okay... I seems like he's gone Anyway...

Anyway, Miroku just got back from school. Everyone started crowding towards him. I started to get nervous. Why are they doing that? What did I forget to teach him? I was trying to think of every possibility when it happened.

"Hey, Kagome! Did you bring those bento lunches?"

"Where's my ninja food?"

"Did you bring those faceless octopuses?"

Then it got worse. After Miroku froze up, they all turned to me! They started saying things like: "Miroku, why didn't you get excited? Don't you like Kagome's cooking?" and "Miroku, what the hell?" I had to think fast.

Miroku: So you pinned it on me!

Kagome: Hey! It was all I could think of! Oh, we forgot to tell them!

Miroku: Them? Oh, the audience! Oops... Yeah... Kagome said, "I just noticed the look on Kagome's face and figured she forgot to bring the lunches. I knew better than to get excited." Then Inuyasha looked at me with an unsettling glare in his eye and said, "Is this true, Kagome?" in a tone more ominous than Naraku and Sesshomaru combined could achieve. So I said, "I didn't have the time! I failed another test and the teacher made me stay after school. By the time I got home, I passed out from exhaustion!" Inuyasha then did the most awkward thing he's ever done.

Kagome: Oh brother! Don't remind me! He posed like some sort of hero and said, "For the sake of freedom, Kagome, and the ninja food, I will kill the bastard who kept Kagome after school!!!" Thinking quickly, I said "Now, now, he did it with Kagome's education in mind. No need to kill him." Inuyasha walked away growling something under his breath, and Shippo said, "Yeesh, the guy will find any excuse to kill something..." Remembering I was Miroku, I said, "Uhhh, yeah! Ibet he'd especially try to find an excuse to kill Koga!"

Miroku: That was truly genius to say, by the way.

Kagome: Thank you! Anyway, after a couple of laughs, Shippo said, "Uhh, I think I left something in the forest. Sango, would you help me look for it?" Sango took the hint and said she would, and they walked into the forest. Miroku and I looked at each other nervously. "You don't think they've caught on, do you Miroku?" "Kagome, they may think something's wrong, but I doubt they've figured out all of it at once. Still, now we have to try more than ever to not slip up, now that they're suspicious." Umm... I'm still not good at that author-all-knowing stuff. All I'm getting is a blur. How about you, Miroku?

Miroku: Nope. Not a thing. I suppose that we have to bring that... that... Flesheater777 person back to do the job.

Flesheater777: As you wish.

Miroku & Kagome: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Flesheater777: Pardon the interruption, but it seems you require my talents.

Kagome: Grrr... He may be a jackass, but he's the only hope of telling the story right now. At least until we get a hang of this...

Flesheater777: Not that I mind terribly, but I can hear you. And yes, I'll admit I'm a jackass.

Miroku: Grrr... Take it away.

Flesheater777: Sango and Shippo caught up to Inuyasha in the forest. Inuyasha immediately sensed them and turned. "What's up?" Sango was out of breath and panting heavily in a manner that would have pleased Miroku greatly.

Miroku: Grrrrr...

Flesheater777: Shippo, however was able to talk immediately and said, "Hey, Inuyasha, don't you think Sango and Kagome are acting kinda weird?" Inuyasha paused in thought, and said, "Yeah, they are acting kinda funny. They're covering for each other like they did something wrong or something." Then Sango, having caught her breath, said, "You don't think they killed someone, do you?"

"No. I don't smell human blood on them at all. But it's kinda weird... They... ummm... smell like each other."

To this, Sango yelled, "What!?!" Then Shippo spoke up. "Maybe they're... you know... together?" Sango then punched Shippo the way Inuyasha normally does and said, "Are you saying they're having an affair!?!" Then Inuyasha said, "I don't think it's necessarily like that. It's really weird because I can't get a scent of Kagome from Kagome, or Miroku from Miroku. It's like they switched scents or something." Sango paid no attention to this and said, "I know! 'll seduce Miroku and see if he still loves me! If he doesn't I'll kill him!" Immediately she ran towards camp, Leaving Inuyasha and Shippo together. Inuyasha spoke up. "I think they got their souls switched or something. I'm gonna go talk to Kaede about this. You have to stop Sango." Shippo then screamed, "You expect me to stop Sango?" Inuyasha then thought about it for a few moments, truely incredible since it was the second time in one day, and said solemnly, "If you have to, tell her the truth." Shippo immediately lost it. "WHAT??? ARE YOU INSANE INUYASHA? THAT WOULD JUST MAKE THINGS WORSE!!!" Inuyasha then said, "If you can think of something better, go ahead and try. They should've just told us in the first place anyway." Shippo mumbled nervously for a couple of seconds, then ran back towards camp. Inuyasha leaped towards Kaede's direction, and the story was then turned over to Kagome. Lady Kagome?

Kagome: Oh my god! That's how much they knew? If I knew they knew that I would've freaked out!!! At least it explains what San- Oh wait! I should save that for the next chapter!

Miroku: An excellent place to stop. Stay tuned for Chapter V: The Unthinkable Gets Worse! And hopefully we'll be able to usurp Flesheater777's power and be rid of his annoyances.

Flesheater777: You're most welcome to try. R&R, dearest readers! Later!
