He'd been following their little rag tag group around for a week and he had narrowed down his target to the little female of the group. She was the one he wanted. She was the one with the shikon jewel shards.
No he did not want the shards for their power, not at all. In fact he scorned the weak minded simpletons who made it their life goal to gain the shards to increase their power. He wanted the jewel because everyone else wanted them, and being the good little thief he was he had to steal the shards before anyone else did.
He needed to conduct more research before he did anything else though. That little disappearing act down the well had surprised him. Yoko Kurama did not like surprises. He had heard the kitsune kit tell one of the villagers that the girl had gone home.
Maybe she lived on the other side of the well? That would certainly explain all the odd things she carried around in that big yellow bag of hers.
Well until she got back all he could do was gather some more information. Leaving a notch on his tree he got up from his perch and raced off to the village to go spy on its inhabitants.
'Three days. Three days and those shards are mine.'
Hey guys. This is my way of avoiding a.p homework. I'll update the next chapter later today but please feel free to review; I really would love some constructive criticism. Later.
