I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA!
Chapter 24: Taking Their Leave
Miroku came down stairs in his purple violet monk outfit that he hadn't worn in the past two and a half weeks along with his staff. Today is the day they would take their leave and go back to the Feudal Era. In recognizing that the monk thinks back to when they took their first steps into this era. He takes one last rummage around the familiar curves and corners of the residence; predicting that he will never lay eyes on this place again.
Might as well make the best of it while you can.
"Come on Miroku we don't have all day ya know," a grumpy voice creeps into the house as Miroku then brings out a smirk and follows the source of the sound. Exiting the front door the sun welcomes him into the outside world as he saw Inuyasha and everyone outside waiting for him patiently.
Well almost everyone.
"Bout' time you got out here, now come on day light is burning!"
"I guess this means that you won't be attending school next fall then," Mayu generously smiles in pushing her daughters hair behind her peachy ears. Kagome's ears were just like hers along with having the shadowy dark hair from her long lost husband. Mayu always wished that her child would have her husband's hair from when she first found out she was pregnant with Kagome.
"I guess so," the mother's first child shrugs her bony shoulders in approval.
Mayu sighs, "now you take care of yourself over there because this is something that you will have to do on your own. And that is in living on your own. I won't be there to help you on your problems that surround you and Inuyasha….okay."
Kagome giggles and reassures her mother, "I'll be fine mom. I've practically lived there for two years, but I am gonna miss you," the child hugs her mom around the neck passionately. Mayu joins in embracing the girl back. Actually, that little girl that accidently fell down that old rigid well on her fifteenth birthday wasn't a girl anymore. From the hardships that she had to bare in having a continuing two year encounter of battles and duels it has formed this teenager into a young and strong woman.
"I am so proud of you," Mayu rocks Kagome in her arms as the miko moves with the motion. Kagome releases herself from her guardian and keeps her smile attached to her face, "I'll come back around the summer solstice."
"All right dear, be careful," Mayu kisses her daughter on the forehead. Kagome puts her bag of arrows and her bow on her shoulders. The arrows making a wooden chime in the solid carrier she cheers, "I will, all set and ready to go."
Right when Kagome was heading off to the hanyou her mom halts her, "oh, Kagome wait!" The lady rotates around in her favorite turquise summer dress with the sleeves down to her elbows and the edges expanding southward to her knees. She wore her nicest grass, green sandals as her mother goes on, "where did you put your high school uniform? I'll need to take it back to the district and say you just dropped out of school. Or do you want me to tell the school what you told your friends?"
"No don't tell the school that, just say I dropped out and the uniform is on top of my bed. I put it there for you," Kagome calls out.
"Good, now the only problem is finding a good purpose in why you dropped out. Probably your grandfather has a good one from making up all those sicknesses? "
"And I already have one," jii-chan walks into the conversation while resting on the shady bench under the Goshinboku. Souta sits next to the old geezer in a hyper pounce, "yeah, we have a perfect one. It would've been more fun if we could also find an excuse for Yuri but her's is already solved," Souta jokes around.
This world does think that Yuri is 'supposedly' dead…
"I HEARD THAT SOUTA!" roars out a certain female demon out in the distance of the shrine. The four humans hunt until they could catch a glimpse of where she remained. She pokes out her lethal fangs as the sun shines her bronze, shoulder lengthen straight hair. The said woman was balancing herself on the roof of the house as she gloriously wore her battle outfit of many fabrics and armor. A death glare bolts toward the young boy.
A chill runs down Souta's spine.
Paying attention to the two males Kagome claps her hands to get them back on track, "so what excuse did you two think of?"
"Marriage!" gramps jumps up and sticks out a finger to the sky in his great announcement. His shouting got everyone's eyes to him. Kagome becomes as red as a cherry.
Me and Inuyasha…m-married! Why? That's a bit overboard don't you think?
Mayu just blankets her mouth in a giggle that she just couldn't hold. Fortunately Yuri was the only one to have heard it – because everyone else was too far away- as she seemed as though she was going to faint and fall off the roof. Her eyes were as big as saucers.
He did not just say what I think he said…I. Did. Not. Just. Hear. THAT! I'm praying for you Kagome!
Everyone else just trails over to the commotion with whispers of 'what did he say?' or 'what's going on?' as Sesshomaru stays back in not wanting to be suffocated by the crowd.
The first to be by the priestesses' side Sango waves a hand over her best friends facial expression of humiliation. She had her pink and green kimono on, "Kagome are you okay?"
"What happened Kagome?" shouts Shippo, landing on the poor woman's shoulder.
"Oh nothing," Mayu waves her hand in guarantee and starts a lie, "it was Souta's doing. Being the little brother that he is he said something that got Kagome embarrassed."
"No I didn't," Souta facts.
Mayu gives him a play along glare and he reverts back to his normal self, "uh, I mean yeah…I did."
"Wow, is your yellow backpack all packed with ninja food?" Shippo hops and cheers in delight. The modest fox demon with his orange bushy tail, jade eyes, and red hair plays Follow the Leader in straggling behind his adoptive mother as she steps to the soil toward the well, "Yep, and a lot of it too. Maybe too much."
"There never can be too much ninja food," Shippo utters to her as she views downward to him.
"Second on that too," Yuri agrees in leaning over the edge of the Bone Eater's well with her own package. Sesshomaru stood right beside her in his armor and with his swords on his hip. His white fluff laying on his shoulder and down his back. Kagome points at the eccentric blackish bag on Yuri's shoulder, "what's in that?"
"Pockys, ramen crackers, ramen, some other sweets and…." Yuri digs in her bag to check if she had everything, "…my sketchbook, pencils, shading tools, and-wait…don't tell me I don't have it? Oh thank god, and my favorite book, Labrinth," Yuri reveals her hard covered book from the bag.
Inuyasha arrives in snatching the sunflower backpack, in which was as big as a television, off his girl's back. Kagome then freaks from having all that weight suddenly coming off of her until she realizes it was Inuyasha. He grunts in shifting the stuffed luggage on him, "Damn, what do you got in here bricks?"
"Excuse me, but all of what's in there is what everyone likes to snack on," Kagome requested in getting pissed. He ignores her outlook and makes that face and she rolls her eyes, "and yes it has your ramen in there," he gives her another familiar glare, "and I have the jewel with me don't worry."
Miroku and Sango held hands along with the Hiraikotsu. They seemed eager to go back home at last. Miroku gleams up at the well house entrance where Mayu, Souta , and gramps stood and he bows, "thank you for letting us stay and visit for the past two weeks. We all greatly appreciate experiencing this new world with ya'll."
"You are very welcome. And all of you guys are always welcomed to come back anytime you like," Mayu requests.
Saying their farewells the whole gang in order of Yuri, Sesshomaru, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kagome and Inuyasha leap in the well as they were all swallowed by the magical blue light and disappear to the Feudal Era.
Floating in the mists of the blue sea Inuyasha grabs hold of Kagome's waist and then chuckles. Kagome knew that type of chuckle, "what is it Inu?"
"Where gonna have a problem that we'll have to deal with soon if you're going to live with me," he smirks. Their hairs and cloths ripping in the sapphire mist.
"What's the problem?" concerns Kagome.
Inuyasha gives her a glance of his fiery amber eyes, "Kouga…"
Kagome stiffens, not expecting that.
Oh boy…
