Ch. 4

Kilala V.S. Shippo

The sound of the steam and the warmth of the sun seemed unsettling to the sleeping Shippo. Words and images of the night before caused the little fox demon to wake. Before he could open his eyes he noticed that his pillow was breathing and moving. 'I'm going to die' kept going through his head, until the soft creature he had been lying on grew quite small and gave a 'Mew' like sound. The startled Shippo fell backwards. Finally gathering enough courage to open his eyes he yelled "Kilala! Kilala! It's so nice to see you! Kilala? What's wrong Kilala?"

Kilala transformed again this time putting one of her fiery paws on Shippo's chest.

"Kilala! It's me!!" Shippo screamed pushing Kilala's paw away and running towards the river, but Kilala kept going and getting closer. Shippo was now at the edge of the river, though he didn't notice it until he was face down in the cold, rushing water.

Soaking wet Shippo ran passed his old friend, who now was trying to kill him, and into the forest. He ran and ran, looking over his shoulder in terror the whole way, dodging several trees and hitting several more. Finally, after what seamed like an eternity of running, he came to a small meadow. He stopped for a moment to look around, then heard a low growl from behind.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He yelled darting from his place behind the tree.

"Did you hear that?" Sango asked, grabbing her boomerang.

"Hear what?" Miroku questioned, trailing after her, walking in the direction of the door. A moment later everyone in the house heard a loud yell.

"That." Sango said, pulling open the door.

Outside the sun shown bright, for now it was high over head. Miroku, Inuyasha and Sota ran after her. When finally they caught up, Sango was staring at two demons. One seemed to be running from the other one. All four of them just stared at the unusual scene, until the first demon ran and hid behind Inuyasha.

"What the heck do think your doing!?" Inuyasha yelled hitting the strange demon on the head, "I'm not your shield you know!!!"

"Owwwwwww!!!! That hurt!" The demon said standing back up. "You didn't have to hit so hard!"

"Why you." Inuyasha said raising his fist.

"Sorry!" The demon running off in the opposite direction. Inuyasha took off after him, fists raised and ready to fight.

Sota, Sango and Miroku had not moved an inch since the arguing begin, so they didn't notice that the second demon was coming closer. It walked up next to Sango and nudged her arm.

"Kilala!!!" She said surprised at what was rubbing her arm. Kilala transformed.

"Mew. Mew." Kilala responded, happy to see her human friend.

"Sango," Miroku said, "Doesn't this seam a little to familiar to you?"

"What do you mean?" Sango asked, a puzzled look came to her face.

"I mean the fighting, doesn't this remind you of something?" Miroku responded, his face becoming very serious.

"Now that you mention it, it does." Sango said intrigued by this discovery. "But what?"

"I'm not sure." Miroku began, closing his eyes to think. Seeing this, Sango begin to ponder it as well. Sota just looked at them very confused. Yes, he had been listening to the conversation, he didn't seem to understand it one bit. So he decided to watch his father try to bet the heck out of the unknown demon.
