I love saying this I don't own Inuyasha.
The Yōkai Child
Rainy days the get old fast part four
The walk was a quiet one as they made their way through the dark tunnel. About half way through the tunnel a sudden cry from Kagome made all three fox yokai cover their ears. After she stopped moving around the tiny tunnel, she looked at them. A nervous laugh escaped her.
"Ha-ha sorry a spider kind of fell on my face." she said with a shiver. The foxes didn't know what to say as they just kind of looked at her. Shippo did a facepalm just before a spider landed on his face.
After it was all over the group was laughing as they continued on their way. Slowly the tunnel started to open. And the foxes put out their lights. When they did this a sudden light shone from above. Kagome was amazed by this little trick. As the were pulled up in to the castle. In the fire light Ling and Ping looked her and Shippo over. Clapping their hands four maids in pink popped out of nowhere. They too were foxes except their fur was pure white while the brothers were light brown.
"Sisters we found someone who maybe able to help the Master!" they said together.
The sisters looked the black-haired girl over and then the young kitsune over and giggled.
The tall one bowed. "Please come with us. You brothers can take care of the kitsune." she said with authority.
The castle was dark not many torches were lit. Making it hard for Kagome to tell what hung on the walls. The floors were well maintained and glowed faintly in the low fire light. Kagome felt a sudden chill from nowhere. Spooky was the only work to describe the feeling she got from the place.
"So where is everyone?" Kagome asked as the quiet started to get to her.
"They are gone. Only me my three sisters and my two brothers are left." the elder sister stated without going into any details. As to the reason they were gone.
Kagome was lead to a natural underground hot spring. After the sisters stripped her of her clothing and leaving her to fend for herself. She found what she need and proceeded to bath. Than relaxed before the up tight group returned. She was rosy pink and thankful for being able to remove the mud that had stuck to her. When the group came back a short time later with bundles of clothing in their paws.
