Chapter 3: Shopping TripPart 1

 

 

~*Morning*~

 

Shippo woke to find an uneasy tension among all his friends, so he went to Kagome to ask what had happened. As Kagome began to explain he couldn't help but laugh at the now sulking InuYasha and the bruised Miroku.

 

“That's what you two get. I can't believe you two thought you could get away with watching and listening unscathed.” Shippo said, throwing himself on the ground in a fit of laughter.

 

“Feh! What makes you think that I wanted to eavesdrop? I only went along to restrain Miroku.” InuYasha shot back quickly at Shippo.

 

As he was winding up to hit the kitsune, Kagome shot InuYasha a look that would have frozen a lake solid.

 

“InuYasha….don't you dare!” Kagome warned.

 

At that InuYasha pulled back and sat in Indian Style near the now dying fire, looking away from everyone. Shippo stuck his tongue out and scurried to Kagome.

 

“So, what are you packing for Kagome?” Shippo inquired as Kagome was placing some items in her bag.

 

“Well. Songo and I…” She paused as she saw InuYasha's ears perk up. “We're going to spend some well deserved girl time together. That's all.” She continued. As she got to her feet, lifting the backpack to her shoulders.

 

Songo and Kirara came from around some bushes. Songo was dressed in her Kimono and Kirara had transformed into her larger form.

 

“Ready to go Kagome?” Songo asked petting Kirara.

 

“Yep.” She quickly replied.

 

As they hopped on to Kirara's back Kagome sliced InuYasha a disconcerting look.

 

“Do Not follow us, InuYasha, you've been warned.” Kagome threatened.

 

His ears fell down and flattened to his head as he responded, “Don't worry sounds boring anyway!”

 

“That goes double for you monk.” Songo hissed.

 

Miroku cringed as the seriousness on her face. He turned away and began to redress his newly found wounds.

 

“Let's go Kirara!” Songo urged to two-tail.

 

Shortly after her command the girls were off and were out of sight.

 

InuYasha slowly rose and walked over to Miroku. He sat down beside him and began to inform him on the details he left out about the previous night.

 

“I over herd more than I told you last night.” InuYasha whispered, still thinking the girls could be close by. “You wanna know?”

 

“I'm battered, bruised and in a lot of pain…of course I want to hear it.” Miroku said with a rather large smile on his face.

 

“They weren't taking about us… before you get your hopes up.” InuYasha began. “Kagome was describing something called Christmas. It happens in her era around this time of year. She said that people exchange presents to those they know and care about.”

 

“Do you think that's where they went? To go and get our presents?” Miroku asked wide eyed.

 

“I guess so; I wonder what they could be getting us?” InuYasha pondered.

 

Miroku was already dreaming about Songo buying some sexy undergarments and brandishing it only for him. He started to snicker and drool at his wonderful thought. A quick punch brought him back to reality though.

 

“I'm going to follow them.” InuYasha whispered. “You take Shippo and look for something to make up for our blunder, which will give me the chance to sneak out.”

 

“Sounds good.” Miroku agreed and stood up. “Hey. Shippo, do you know of any wild flower fields around here?”

 

Shippo, who was amusing himself with his top turned and looked curiously at the monk.

 

“Why would you want to know that?” Shippo asked.

 

“Because I want to show the girls how truly sorry I am for my behavior last night.” Miroku lied, sounding very convincing.

 

“Oh, okay then.” Shippo agreed, satisfied with his answer. “There is a field a little not to far from here, in that direction (points to the South).”

 

“Can you take me?” Miroku asked.

 

“Sure. Are you going to come to InuYasha?” Shippo asked as he looked toward InuYasha.

 

“No!” He replied indigently. “I didn't do anything wrong.” He said as he turned his head.

 

“Suit yourself.” Shippo said with a shrug and he set off with Miroku to the flower field.

 

InuYasha had waited long enough; it was time to go in search of Kagome and Songo. He hopped into the tallest tree he could find and sniffed the air hoping to catch Kagome's scent. After a few short seconds he turned north east to follow her sweet sent.

 

“They flew off in that direction!” He smirked and took off after them dropping to the ground so he wouldn't be spotted from the air.

 

~* The Bone Eater's Well*~

 

Kirara touched down softly and Kagome hopped off of her back.

 

“What are we doing here?” Songo asked, looking puzzled.

 

“Meeting Totosai.” Kagome said plainly.

 

“Why would he be here?” Song asked becoming even more puzzled.

 

“Because she asked me to be here.” Came a voice form the woods. Songo spun around to see Totosai standing behind her; with an object in his hand.

 

“Is it finished?” Kagome asked, her eyes sparkling with hope.

 

“Yes it is, but, I must admit; this is as interesting request.” Totosai said extending the parcel to Kagome. “It will work, but, it all depends upon him as to how well it will work.

 

“Thank-you so much Totosai.” Kagome exclaimed after peering at the item. Songo could not see what she had, but, it wasn't very large. What could the old sword maker have created for her, Songo wondered.

 

Kagome gave Totosai a peck on the cheek, put the item in her bag and jumped onto Kirara's back.

 

“What did you get?” Songo asked.

 

“InuYasha's first present.” Kagome smiled brightly.

 

“First?!?” Songo said shocked and puzzled.

“Yep, that's why we have to get to the marketplace, so I can get the second.” Kagome explained.

 

“Okay, if you say so. Kirara….” And Kirara took to the air once more so they could reach their destination.

 

 

 

Well my husband wrote this chapter. It was so long that I needed to split up into a few parts. Of course I had to put some of my own touches in there so that made it even longer. Two heads are better than one.
