Chapter 4: Shopping Trip Part II

 

~* Approaching the Bone Eater's Well *~

 

InuYasha was in full stride, but, still barley made a sound as he breezed through the forest. He still could still smell Kagome's scent, but, just barley; he paused when he came into the clearing.

 

“The Bone Eater's Well?” InuYasha thought, `Why did she come here? Maybe she went back to her time?'

 

He sniffed the air once more and found that she had only stopped there for a brief moment and headed west. After discovering their new direction he took off with great haste following their smell.

 

“I wonder why they stopped there.” InuYasha thought to himself. “Oh well I've got to keep moving if I want to keep up.”

 

As he ran, InuYasha thought about what Kagome would get him… if anything due to his being a pain in the ass lately…but, he wasn't that bad ….was he? Just then another question hit him…What was he going to get Kagome? What did she want?

 

Soon InuYasha was coming along the outskirts of a bustling city. He could hear the clamor of numerous peoples and the mixture of smells overwhelmed his senses. InuYasha knew it would be tough to track the girls in that crowd. He searched the town via roof tops so he would not be spotted.

 

After looking down a few streets, he finally caught a glimpse of them coming out of a jewelry store. Kagome and Songo walked out of the store with a smile and Kirara was curled up in Songo's arms.

 

`I wonder if they have gotten me anything yet?' InuYasha thought as he secretly followed them.

 

Kagome and Songo continued to browse the marketplace, talking and discussing the recent events that had transpired. They abruptly stopped in front of a store when a rather beautiful kimono caught Kagome's attention. It was made of pure silk and the colors of a sunset danced all over it. Even InuYasha was taken aback by its beauty. So he decided to watch on from his hidden position.

 

Kagome and Songo quickly entered the store. The clerk greeted the girls and Kagome quickly indicated that she wished to try on the kimono in the window. A few minuets passed as she changed and then she emerged from the dressing room.

 

The moment she came out she went to find a mirror, once she did she began to twirl and pose in front of it. Kagome had a smile on her face, a sparkle in her eyes and her cheeks had become flush. InuYasha's jaw had dropped at what he had seen before him.

He began to think that he had never seen Kagome in this light before; she was elegant, poised, and dare he say it even beautiful.

 

`I wonder if she'll wear that around me?' InuYasha began to think to himself.

 

 

“I guess it would be okay to get something for myself.” Kagome said happily. Songo agreed with a smile as Kagome reached into her bag to pay for the outfit.

 

“Oh no!” Kagome said disheartened, “I don't have enough!”

InuYasha snapped back into reality when he herd the pain radiating from her sweet voice.

 

Kagome reluctantly took off the kimono and gave it back to the clerk. Songo and Kagome pause to look at the beautiful garment one more time before exiting the store.

 

“Well you did already spend a good deal on him.” Songo stated.

 

“Yeah, but, he's worth it. I guess I'll just have to dream about it for the time being.” Kagome sighed, continuing walk down the road and proceeded to turn the corner.

 

InuYasha was still staring at the kimono and thinking to himself. `She did look gorgeous in that, but, how could I get it? I could steal it…No, that would only make her mad at me.' At that moment Shouta's words echoed in his mind. `Diamonds are very valuable; you could make lots of money with those.'

 

“That's it!!!” InuYasha exclaimed, proud of himself for finding a non-violent solution. So he quickly departed the roof top and headed to a near by mountain.

 

~* Back in the Marketplace*~

 

The girls rounded the corner and found the shop Kagome was looking for. It was the mystical tailor shop. When she entered the store the shop keeper instantly came to greet her.

 

“Lady Kagome, welcome!” The shop keeper very excitedly. “I assume you have come for your order?”

 

“Yes, I have. Is it ready?” Kagome asked.

 

“Why, yes it is. Give me a moment to retrieve it from the back room.” The shop keeper replied and vanished into the back room.

 

“What did you get in here?” Songo asked curiously.

 

“You'll see!” Kagome teased.

 

At that moment the shop keeper emerged form the back room; he held a deep blue outfit similar to InuYasha's Fire Rat clothing. When he came to the counter he carefully placed them into a box for Kagome and bid them a due.

 

“This is present number two.” Kagome said. “This outfit is fire and acid repellant. I had the tailor mix fire rat fur with a strong base that I had composed in a chemistry class in my time. Do you think he'll like it?” She asked.

 

“Well if he doesn't, I'll gladly take it.” Songo said.

 

They both laughed as Kagome put the second parcel in her bag.

 

 

Well that's it for part two. Part three is on the way. There will be some closure to the shopping trip. Soon after we will get into a pretty gruesome battle. Yes, there will be a lot of blood, carnage and many other ghastly things.
