Ch 18 - Training
"Okay have you all picked your weapons?" Sango asked
"Not quite." Koga said walking up to the table.
Everyone turned to see Koga and the other two. They were in workout clothes, Koga was even wearing a sweat band.
"What the hell are y'all doing here?" Inuyasha asked stepping in front of Kagome.
"We're here to help," Koga said standing up straight and confident
"I don't think so!" Inuyasha snapped
"Inuyasha stop, we need all the help we can get. We are already out numbered nine to four. These at least helps level the playing field." Sango interjected.
"Fine" Inuyasha rolled his eyes and the seven of them continued training.
Finally they were all standing in a row before Sango. She was holding her boomerang blade. It was about half her height and the entire thing was made of steel except for the middle bar for her to hold. All the edges were shaved down to a blade. She spun around holding it, it slowly rose with her arm and she stopped spinning and let go, it took off spinning and cut her target in half and came spinning back and she caught it with ease. "There, now I want each of you to hit your target."
Inuyasha was next he drew his sword and ran and jumped into the air, landing with his sword slicing down the center of his target. He walked back to the lineup and Sango nodded at him with a smile.
Next up was Miroku, he pulled out his knives and started throwing them, most of them landed in the center and a few on the outside of the target and two on the ground. Sango nodded again "Keep practicing"
Kagome walked up next and pulled back on her bow and let the arrow fly. Dead center. She did it three more times, all perfectly center.
Ginta walked up next he also had knives, he tossed them strategically, most of them landed center, one landed outside the center. "Very good!" Sango said.
Hakkaku came out next and had a gun he aimed and fired. He hit the target all but twice. Sango nodded and then looked to Koga.
Koga walked up with no weapon. He walked up and punched the target, ripping it in half.
"Okay, that's hardly fair." Inuyasha said "Anyone can walk up and punch a piece of paper."
"I don't need a weapon I have the best martial arts training available." Koga said crossing his arms with his nose in the air.
"Let's move on, now combat training" Sango said, "Hakkaku because you are using a gun do not use it during combat training. Miroku I think you would be better suited with a gun, you did good at the shooting range with it. You two follow me. The rest of you practice."
Inuyasha pointed his sword at Koga "You think your special training can beat a sword?"
"You're on" Koga said and the two of them began to fight.
"I guess that leaves us two" Kagome said to Ginta.
They continued to practice while Sango took Miroku and Hakkaku a safe distance away. She set up wooden targets set up on moving bars. "Practice shooting at a moving target" She said.

Sesshomaru looked down at them train from his bedroom window.
"Dad, are you going to go fight too?" Rin said walking into his room.
Sesshomaru turned around and picked her up and sat on the bed with her. "Do you think I should?"
"I think you are the toughest guy ever! No one can beat you daddy!" Rin said with a big smile, then she looked down "Will Kagome be okay?"
Sesshomaru looked down in slight surprise "Do you like Kagome?"
Rin nodded, "Yes! Her and her friends are very nice, I don't want anything to happen to them."
Sesshomaru nodded, "Maybe I should help them then."
Rin smiled and hugged her dad.
