My Story: A Human `Tail'
Chapter 10- Two Princes
 
 
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT AND WILL NEVER OWN INUYASHA. But I do own the idea of this story.
 
A/N: Hey guys. Sorry for the long wait. I've had writers block for a while, then I was preoccupied with Band Camp ( but I'm not actually in the band, I'm on the flagline.), then school started and it was very stressful cause they gave me classes I didn't want and would let me switch for two weeks ( I Just wanna kill the bozo who made up that rule). Any ways, the point is most of the stress is gone, and I can start updating more often….hopefully. SO now, the moment you've all been waiting for….
 
 
 
 
 
Myoga turned at the sound of his name, and looked upon two men. Both appeared to have white, no wait,Silver hair, and bright amber eyes. I could tell they were not human by the look of them. The taller had blue markings on the sides of his face and a crescent moon on his forehead, while the shorter had no markings, but a pair of fluffy white doggy ears on the top of his head. They were not human no, but they were not immortal either, and I am sure of that.
 
“Oh its you.”
 
“What's that supposed to mean old man!?” The shorter man retorted.
 
“You know exactly what it means, but nice to see you again too Inuyasha” Myoga stated with a twinkle in his eye.
 
So his name is Inuyasha. It sounds very familiar, but I don't recall where I've heard it….Oh well.
 
“Hn”
 
“What can I do for your highnesses today; we were just heading back to the shop now.”
 
Highness? Oh the rulers of these lands I'm guessing. I remember Sango mentioning something about them.
 
“Who's this” asked to taller one.
 
“Oh, how rude of me. Kagome, this is Sesshomaru, Oldest prince and first in line to the throne of Canderri.”
 
SO they are princes. How interesting.
 
“And that is Inuyasha, second prince in line for the throne”
 
“Nice to meet you …”
 
Myoga muttered to bow to them in my ear, but why. What is bowing supposed to do. Some of these human customs are very strange…
 
I bowed awkwardly, not really having any idea what I was doing, while the two princes looked at me strangely.
 
Myoga broke the silence.
 
“Ok, why don't we head back to the shop now, before it gets dark, and I'll see what I can do for you boys?”
 
With that we headed back, the brothers walking the horses rather then riding them this time.
 
We walked for about an hour with Inuyasha glancing at me out of the corner of his eye. I suppose he thinks I'm strange.
 
“What happened to your arm” I looked down.
 
I had forgotten I was injured
 
“Oh…nothing”
 
“Ha nothing” Myoga burst out “She practically saved my life”
 
Inuyasha looked interested “What happened?”
 
“We ran into some trouble yesterday, Gulans to be exact. They cornered us, but we fought them off. Eventually Kagome was able to kill them, but not with out wounds.”
 
The princes looked surprised.
 
“Gulans are said to be immortal. Not even the strongest demon could kill it. How could a mere girl take down even one of them?” Sesshomaru asked with distain.
 
Inuyasha looked curiously at me.
 
“That is true” They looked surprised that I answered “Gulans are immortal, therefore they cannot die. You could spear it, poison it, drown it, push it off a cliff, do anything imaginable to it, and it will not die. But there is one thing not very known, it is one of the most harmless things in the world to you, but one of the most deadly things to them….”
 
“And what, may I ask, is this so called Harmless, but deadly item”
 
“Let me ask you this. What is the best healing leaf found in this land?”
 
“The Tyra leaf? But how does that kill something that cannot be killed?”
 
“It just can” and I walked away, seeing the shop through the trees.

When I reached the shop I went into the back room hoping to avoid questions from the two princes.
 
After a few minutes I heard the voices of the three men walking into the shop, and listened through the door.
 
“So what can I do for you boys? I know you didn't come to Visit this old man” came Myoga's muffled voice.
 
“We need some weapons” It was Inuyasha
 
“What kind?”
 
“Any thing. Daggers, bows, My Bows keep breaking, so I thought maybe you would have something.”
 
I heard footsteps walking to the left, towards the bows.
 
“Let's see, we have this one”
 
A few moments passed,
 
“Nope, not strong enough, I'll break this wood like a twig.”
 
“How about this” Myoga asked again
 
“Um, the wood looks good and strong, but the string will snap after the second shooting. Do you have anything or could you make one with the strongest of wood to withstand my strength, but string that it easy to shoot with but the strongest type? Is there any way”
 
Oh no, there was silence. That means Myoga is thinking. Most likely his thoughts are directed towards my creations.
 
“Well” Came Myoga's dragged out answer
 
“There is one bow. One of a new style. Every one made by this person, has a unique design that tells a story, the wood is made out of the bark of the strongest tree, and a string that is so thin that it could be hair, but its stronger then the thickest rope….”
 
I knew it.
 
“And where could we acquire such a bow as this…” came Inuyasha's anxious voice
 
“Yes, I too am curious, for never have I heard of such a well made bow” Sesshomaru added.
 
“Er um. Well you would have to ask the maker of the bow if you could buy one off of her….”
 
“HER!?”
 
“Yes, Kagome here is the maker of these bows; you can come out now kagome. I know you are listening.”
 
DAMN him and his all knowingness. I quietly open the door and slide out.
 
“Girl show me the bow” Sesshomaru asked coolly.
 
Apparently Myoga saw my annoyed glare and butted in.
 
“Now Kagome would you be as kind as to show them your work.”
 
I nod my head reluctantly. I turn around and go into the back. Two minutes later I came out again with one of my bows and a quiver of my home made arrows.
 
I put it down gently
 
“Here, probably the strongest bow you will come across”
 
Inuyasha walks up to it and picks it up. He gives it a look down and begins to test the wood and string. The wood would break if given too much force, but that's only with regular wood. This wood has some of my magic in it. Though very little is in it, it is still there.
 
“Hm, it seems very good. It's the best yet, in fact. But how does it shoot.”
 
“Try them if you don't believe me. There are some targets set up in the back.”
