Hehe! I love this story~ Especially Shippo!
"Nice place for a bunch of poor rats." InuYasha stood above his mat, then, unfortunately for him, a familiar quote split the air. "Sit boy!"
InuYasha crashed down on the floor with the impact of meteor. "Aaahhooowwww..." He whined. Shippo bit back a laughing fit. He saw Shirokii and Tanymaii run outside, Shirokii stayed inside for a second, "Daddy, can we go outside? Oh! And Shisake is sill awake! She's coming."
Myaki nodded. "Alright, you can go outside, be careful!" He warned. Shirokii nodded and bounded outside.
Shippo looked to the side, he saw a girl walk out of a room. He instantly felt a warm feeling overtake him. He guessed this was Shisake, she had a big, puffy tail like Shippo's the only difference is that is was white as snow, she had little fox ears that stood out on the top of her head, also white. As she got closer Shippo noticed she had light blue eyes, with silver swirled in. She had a small ponytail, her hair was black as ink. She had pale skin and fox feet, like Shippo's.
Yawning, she looked up at Myaki. "Hey, Dad!" She greeted happily. "And who are these people?" She asked.
"Visitors, you know what?" He added. He leaned in closer, and whispered, "You look quite like that little boy there." Myaki murmured in Shisake's ear.
Shisake walked forward, her blue eyes curious. "I'm Shisake!" She held out her hand to Shippo.
Shippo reached out his hand and touched Shisake's hand. "I'm Shippo..." He managed to croak out. He felt as though he was going to collapse.
"You wanna go outside with me?" Shisake asked, her tail flitted around excitedly. The bow in her hair was a sharp silver, it reminded Shippo of swords. "Sure..." He replied, still having trouble talking.
InuYasha seemed to notice tht Shippo was exceptionaly shy with this girl, and he smirked at him, telling him he was goig to be made fun of later.
Shisake pulled his hand with her, and they ran outside. The black haired fox girl looked around, then ran forward towards what looked like a forest park. "I need to go to my secret place." Shisake whispered.
"I'm not accepted into this city, so we need to keep hidden." Shisake pulled Shippo into the forest, after running for what seemed like an eternity, they came up to a pile of leaves, branches, and a bush with huckleberries on it. Shisake removed all the leaves, branches and debris that covered the entrance.
"Where does that lead to?" Shippo asked, blushing a bit.
"It leads to my secret place, you can come with me!" She exclaimed happily, Shisake jumped inside, Shippo following close behind her.
After running in the tunnel, which actually was very well-designed, it being about the size of the top of Kagome's legs, and other tunnels, probably to confuse other founders.
Light burst through an opening, moonlight. Shisake climbed out, and Shippo did the same. Then he discovered why Shisake wanted to keep this a secret.
There was a large, circular pond in the middle of a clearing, it was more like a lake, though. The reflection of the moon shone off it like a mirror, it made the water look an unexplainable, late evening blue, with black rimming the edges, and the reflection of everything sketched with silver.
Surrounding them, were trees, it probably was part of the forest, but too deep for too many people to wander into, besides, this was off the path of dirt, and completely concealed by the trees.
Bushes lines the rim of the entire clearing, holly bushes, blueberry bushes, and everything else you can think of. There were even grape vines in some places. You could climb them, to get at the small, round, pieces of fruit.
And to top it all off, there was a small meadow with tall grass, till about Shippo's elbows, that had several dandelions in it, Shisake looked at Shippo, her blue eyes in the moonlight made them look dark, royal blue. "Wanna go sit by the lake?" She asked quietly. "It's my favorite." She added.
The kitsune nodded, walking towards it, the grass was soft and springy, he could just sleep on it. He sat by a ledge, Shisake sat next to him, putting her fox paws in the water, rippling it, making the pictures shake and wiggle.
Suddenly, a twig snapped, telling them they weren't alone. Shippo stood protectively in front of Shisake, the bushes rustled, and the sight nearly scared Shippo out of his skin.
A giant, gray wolf stepped through the bushes, his tongue lolled out, and his eyes gleamed.
