Shashomiru: Another chapter!

Hack: Indeed.


This new… thing with these ears stood with a huge sword against his shoulder.

"Are you… the cowardly lion?" Seto pointed at the newcomer.

"What! A cowardly lion! I ain't no cowardly lion!" He stood firmly on his feet and held his sword in front of him. "And I can prove it! Take one step and you'll see!"

"Oh, Inu Yasha, you know you wouldn't do that!"

"K-Kagome."

A girl stepped forward from the foliage and walked up beside this… Inu Yashaaaa…

"You know you're too much of a softy to do anything to these people."

"A softy! I'll show you!" With that, he held up his huge sword and ran in the direction of Starecro.

"Oooohh!"

"Sit, boy!"

"GAH! OI!" Inu Yasha had a direct face plant.

Starecro held onto Seto tight as Seto held him in his arms, strangely enough.

"Please, don't hurt me! I want my Mommyyy! Waaahahahaaa-gah!"

Seto placed him on the ground and stepped over him. He walked up to Inu Yasha.

"Hmph. If you're not the cowardly lion, then who are you?"

"You've got those ears. Why?" Starecro stood up and eyed him closely.

Fro-Fro ran up to Inu Yasha. "Domo gana Zing-Zing?"

"Eehh…."

"Why do you have a big sword?" Starecro approached him.

"Well? Are you going to answer my question, or are you too coward?" Seto imposed.

"You're asking me so many questions!" Inu Yasha looked around at everybody.

"Inu Yasha, are you alright?" Kagome looked at him.

"Why aren't you answering my question, coward!"

"You've got pretty hair. How'd you get it?"

"Zing-Zing! Zing-Zing!" Fro-Fro hopped up and down.

"Inu Yasha, are you feeling okay?"

"Wanna buy a pen?" Penman shoved a handful of pens in Inu Yasha's face.

"GaaaAAAAAAAAHHH! You're all nuts! I'm out of here!" Inu Yasha turned and ran past Kagome.

"Inu Yasha! What's the matter?"

He turned and looked at them while he ran. "You're all ridiculous! That's what's the matter! Gaah! Oof!" He tripped over some thing. (Durr.) So, therefore, he fell flat on his face.. "Ouch."

"Wow. I didn't even have to tell you to sit, InuYasha." Kagome walked up to Inu Yasha.

"Whatever... I'm busy."

"Busy kissing the dirt?" Seto walked up beside Kagome.

"Grrr…" Inu Yasha stood up and held his sword up to Seto's throat. "I swear, if you ask me another question..."

"You think I'm scared?"

Inu Yasha puckered up his lip and stared at Seto. He brushed him aside and turned to Kagome. "I swear, he's next, Kagome. Do you think he's a Demon?"

"I seriously doubt it, Inu Yasha."

"Hmm." He turned back to Seto. "I'll be watching you."

"Like you weren't already watching us before?"

"No! I wasn't watching you! Gah! Forget it! Let's go Kagome!" He began walking away.

"Hm. Touchy. Don't mind Inu Yasha, this isn't one of his better days."

"You think he's got it like that? We're stuck here!" Seto put his hands in the air.

"And so is Inu Yasha." They heard a small voice from above.

"Oh, no. I know that voice…"

"She's in that tree. I see her." Starecro pointed to a tree. In the tree was that peculiar little fairy that Seto recognized oh so much! (Oh joy!)

"What are you doing here?" Seto gasped. "Causing more curiosityyy?" He looked at the fairy as his face shifted into a sarcastic awe.

The fairy was just finishing a fruit she had been able to nab. "Thank you, Fruit Tree."

"No problem."

"Ooo… That prods. That really prods." Seto slipped his fingers into his rustled hair. "Now, what were you saying?"

"Inu Yasha's got it just as you." The Fairy fluttered towards the group. "I see you've expanded your friendship list."

"They aren't my friends. Now, what do you mean he's got it just as me?'"

"You may think that being stuck here for a day is something. Well, he's been stuck here for two months."

"YEAH. But only because YOU won't tell me how to get the heck outta here!"

"I said I couldn't tell you. All you have to do is go to the Spazz of Os and she may be able to give you what you want. But unless you're too stubborn and you'd much rather play by your own rules, then I'd suggest that you'd just forget about it. There is no other way, that there isn't!"

"A lot of help you are. Why don't you just tell us where this Wizard is so we won't have to waste our time searching!"

"Because, SETO, if you succeed then you will learn a lot from your adventure. You all have something you're striving for. You and Inu Yasha are working to escape from Os."

"I'm looking for more ink for my pens."

"And I'm looking for better contact lenses."

"What do you need contact lenses for? You can see well enough!"

"Not really. What happened to your shoes?"

"NOTHING." Seto turned from him.

"Well, I can see that you sure haven't changed your attitude since we first met."

He clutched his fists and lowered his head. "How… can I change… my attitude… if I don't… know… what I'm doing!" He turned, grabbed the Fairy and held her tight. "Okay, Thumbalina'. This is your BEST CHANCE to tell me how to return to my normal home. And if you don't I swear I'll-..."

"Please, little Fairy! Tell him how to make it home! He'll do it! I know! Waaaahahahaaa!" Starecro knelt to his knees and began to cry.

"Hey! Do you think we could wrap it up here! The ink in my pens is beginning to dry up!" Penman held his pens in the air.

"Zing-Zing! Zing-Zing!"

"Inu Yasha, what's going on?" Kagome watched as things went on.

"Please don't hurt her, Setooo!" Starecro sat on the ground, crying his eyes out.

"Um, the ink is drying!" Penman waved his hand around.

"Ziiiing-Zing!" Fro-Fro tugged on Seto's pant leg with his teeth.

"Don't do this Seto." Fairy shook her head.

"I might." Seto clutched his hands

"Inu Yasha, do something," Kagome requests.

Inu Yasha looked at the ground, filling with intensity. He clutched his hand tightly on the hilt of the Tetsusaiga.

"Let me go."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes!"

No! I'm not letting go! La-la-la-la-la-la-laaa! I'm sorry! Lalalaaaa lalalaaa! Dancing Ponies!"

"Seto! Seto! Seto!" the Fairy chanted.

"I said Dancing Ponies, darn it!"

"GrrraaaAAHH!" Inu Yasha unleashed his reign as birds scattered from the trees.

Everybody got quiet.

"All of you are ridiculous and loud! Let's go Kagome!" He turned and walked away.

Seto watched as Inu Yasha began on his way. Meanwhile, the Fairy had other things on her mind. She gazed at Seto's hand and bit into his finger.

"Ahh! You little…"

"I said to let me go!"

"Grr. Fine! What am I going to do with a British Fairy anyway? You remind me of Ryou Bakura…" He let her go and she fluttered into the air.

"Ahem. Yes, well, I haven't the slightest." She adjusted herself. "Now, most certainly you aren't going to run out on your own, now are you, Inu Yasha?"

"WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME QUESTIONS! Plus, I WON'T be alone! I've got Kagome!"

"Heeey! Don't get me caught up in this, Inu Yasha!"

"Well, I've gotta have SOMEBODY by my side! You're all I've got!"

"Hey, don't forget about us." Just then, out of the blue, Miroku, Shippo, and Sango all walked out of… um… the blue. Eh heh.

"There you guys are. Where have you been?"

"Looking for a way out of here. Remember?" Sango shook her head.

"Of course, I remember! That's all that I've been trying to do for the past TWO MONTHS!"

"It's getting into his head. He's forgotten why we're even here in the first place." Shippo hopped onto Inu Yasha's head and gently knocked on it.

"Ehhh..."

"NOW, what's going on?!" Seto implored.

"Oh. Everybody. Meet everybody else. Seto, these are some of Inu Yasha's other friends." The Fairy gave a friendly smile.

"Oh great. More people to confuse."

"You better watch it!" Inu Yasha pointed his sword in Seto's direction.

"That'll be the day."

"It sure will be you-"

"Come on, Inu Yasha. We aren't going to get out of here yelling at each other." Kagome placed her hand on his shoulder.

"Yeah. I guess you're right. Let's go then!"

"Wait!"

"Huh?" They all paused.

"Why don't you all work together, and be friends to each other, and search for the Wizard together?" The Fairy rose her head and closed her eyes.

"Oh, great. You're starting to sound like TEA, now." Seto turned his head and clenched his teeth.

"I thought you said that I was like Ryou Bakura."

"…" Seto stared at her. "I don't have time for this." He began walking the trail once again.

"Hmph." Kagome stepped forward. "You boys are all so odd about getting help from people!"

"We aren't all like that. I like your wings." Starecro smiled.

"Um… thanks. I guess."

"You have your eyes fixed on so many things at once. Fine. We'll play your little game. But I swear, if I don't make it home, it'll be your little fairy ass." Inu Yasha stared at her.

Once again they continued walking. (Maybe they will actually get somewhere this time.)

"Not unless I get to it first." Seto followed.

"Hmph. We'll see about that." The Fairy then transformed into her bubble form and floated onward. (Like Flying Gerbils!)

(Meanwhile, while everybody else was being incredibly weird, they were not aware that somewhere, far away, in a dark, lonely castle, the Bitch of the North was scheming her plan on Seto.)

She looked into her translucent ball with her hands on her hips.

"Ah! It looks like he's got more friends than Dorothy had ever gotten… That means he's more popular than I am! That just won't do. Joey! Approach me!" The witch ordered to her decorated monkey.

Just then a Gorilla made its way to The Witche's side. (Guess who plays him!)

"Oo oo. Ahh ahh," he muttered as she stared at him.

"Argh! I don't even know why I decided to buy a Gorilla as my assistant. Why couldn't it have been something more like a, a, a dog or something smart? But nooo. I got a… big overgrown monkey that doesn't even know how to serve croutons!" She picked up a nearby vase and threw it in Joey's direction. It shattered to pieces. (Not Muffins.)

Joey let out a loud screech and covered his head. "Oo! Oo! Oo! Huh?"

The Witch walked to her window and put her hands on the windowsill.

"Oh. Why? Why am I in here on such a beautiful day?" It was very dark outside. The clouds were a glorious gray color, all the dark birds screeched and squawked about everywhere. "It's not every day you get weather like this." She relaxed her head onto her arms.

"Oohh. I should REALLY do something special. Maybe spend some time with Joey."

"Ooooo?" Joey looked up in enthusiasm.

"Nah."

"Aww…" He laid back down.

"It's too special a day to hang out with THAT ape."

"Grrrr…"

"There has to be SOMETHING that I could do." She put her face in her arms and grew silent…

….She flung her head up suddenly. "Oh! Of course! I'll delve into more of my reign on the others! It's brilliant! Ah hah hah!" She ran and grabbed her broom and and then ran to her translucent ball. "Come here, Joey, you big ape!"

"Huh? Oo, oo." He walked up to her side.

"I have a brilliant idea! I'll release my wild herd of flying hamsters onto those fools! Ahah! It's so brilliant!" (I'm sure that we all know how brilliant it is, now.) "And Joey!"

"Hrr?"

"Since you're some flying baboon, I want you to bring me back Seto Kaiba. The guy who's more popular than I am. Got it!"

"Errhrr." He nodded his head in agreement.

"Good." She looked into her translucent ball again. "Mhmm. Soon. I'll get you my fool. And all your little fan girls too! Aaahahahahahaa! Ahahahahahhaa!"

"Eee! Eee! Eee!"

"Mmmhehehehehehehe… Now. To figure out why in the world I'm holding my broomstick again…. Oh yes. Joey! Clean up that vase! Now!"

"Grrr…"

And with that Joey cleaned up the vase while our heroes continued their journey to the Spazz of Os unbeknownst to the fact that the Bitch of the North was scheming a plan with her league of hamsters.
