A/N: Yo everybody. Here's chapter 12. I wasn't really sure what to name it… Anyway I have a new story out now that I'm sure all you Gaara fans would love. Just look at my stories and it'll be the one named 'Strange Mission' err… something like that. Now, ENJOY THIS CHAPTER DAMN IT!
Kagome stared a human looking Shippo. Kagome had told him to transform so he wouldn't be notice. But even as a human, He was sooo cute! His hair and the same, except for the baseball cap on his head at a angle and his pony tail lowered a bit. The stick of a caramel sucker came out of his mouth. His ears were rounded, his fangs and claws gone. Shippo's tail and demon legs were gone and replaced with human ones. He wore some of Sota's old clothes, a plain blue T-shirt and white shorts. He also wore some dark blue sandals. Their was a small green backpack that Kagome and him went through the trouble of buying. Altogether he looked like a cute little three year old.
Kagome looked into another shop window and gasped, "Shippo wait right there," he nodded and waited on the side walk as she ran into the store. Shippo stood on his tip-toes as he gazed trough the window. It was no use. Kagome's back was facing him so he couldn't see what she was doing. She came running out. Shippo stared at a little black and green object she held in front of her face. Then a bright burst of light came. Shippo sat on the sidewalk trying to regain his vision. He had almost lost control of the transformation spell.
"Ow… What was that? Kagome?" Shippo said as he stood up.
"Oh! Sorry Shippo. I didn't think about the flash. Let me turn it off," Shippo watch as she looked for the switch, "It's a camera. Like the one I brought through the well before. Except that one is silver and this one's black with some blue and green paper on it. I wanted to take your picture since it's your first time here."
"Oh… You could of gave me a little warning though!" Shippo yelled.
"But the look on your face was so adorable!" Kagome reasoned.
"So when do we get the picture?"
"When the camera's full. Then I'll get the shots developed," Kagome paused, "Let's see. We bought the sandals, backpack and now a camera. So I have about 76 dollars left. Mom was so nice to give me so much. I need a new bag and we need supplies. Let's go."
Shippo nodded and they started to walk, "Where are we going now Kagome?"
"To the Sport's Market. They usually have bags, maybe we'll get another sleeping bag while we're there. The old one is getting worn out any way. At the least we might get all that for 35 dollars, if we're lucky then we can spend the rest on supplies."
Shippo tried to take in everything she said, "Sports Market?"
"Just the name of the place that sells sports supplies. They also have outdoor equipment there too and they have better prices then some places."
"Oh. Okay."
"Maybe we can fill up your bag too while we're here."
"Sure! That 'ill be great!"
About an hour and a half later Kagome had a new bag. It had only one strap but was still a backpack. She hadn't felled it to much because she knew Inuyasha wouldn't be there to carry it when she was tired and there was no way she was taking her bike along with Sesshomaru. Kagome's bag had a frying pan and a sauce pan along with some matches, three bottles of water, some freeze-dried food, a powder for making artificial orange juice, ramen, bowls that were squeezed into the sauce pan to save room and after that to small bags of candy, the frying pan had some smaller plates in it, there were also some eating utensils, soap, shampoo, conditioner and her hair brush. (A/N: It may sound like a lot but a lot of the stuff is small and arranged nicely so it fits better and her bag looks flatter.) Attached under the bag was her new sleeping bag. She would have to remember to pack clothes when she got home. Shippo's bag had stuff packed only for him. Some candy, powders to make flavored water, a box of crayons and a sketch pad.
Kagome and Shippo now sat on a bench next to the street with there newly filled bags, waiting for Kagome's mom to pick them up. Soon a red car stopped in front of them.
"Come on Shippo!" Kagome yelled as she opened the door.
Shippo was over come by emotion, "I'm going to ride in a car?!"
"Not if you don't hurry now jump in!" Kagome was already sitting inside. Shippo hurried in and closed the door. Shippo knew about cars from a model Kagome had showed him.
Shippo grabbed the seat belt and began to pull, "Am I doing this right?" he grabbed the buckle in his other hand.
"Why, yes you are. You must be Shippo. Kagome told me all about you," began a new voice. Shippo stared at the driver, "Hello. I'm Kagome's mother."
"So you're my grandma?" asked Shippo.
"Grandma?" Kagome and her mother said.
"Well I kind of think of Kagome as a mom so can I call you grandma?" asked Shippo.
"Well of course you can," said the new grand mother as the car started to move.
