A Feudal Fairy Tale
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Rurouni Kenshin
It was quiet in the forest around the clearing that Shippo was in, there was no sound other then the sound of his breathing and the quiet of the breeze in the trees. For what seemed the fifth time Shippo searched the treetops for any sign of Inuyasha but could'nt find any.
In the two years after Naraku's defeat everything had quieted down a lot. It turned out that all the demons that had come after them were sent by Naraku even before they knew of him. All the demons, including the Thunder Brothers. That really caused Shippo's blood to boil when he learned that, and because of his hot headedness he attacked Naraku. Or tried to, Naraku struck him down in one shot and gave Shippo a long scar along his right shoulder and down to the middle of his back.
The fight against Naraku was tough, Inuyasha, Kouga, and Sesshomaru did most of the fighting against Naraku. Maroku, Kirara, Sango, and himself fought against the hordes of demons Naraku summoned and Kagome fought against Kikyo.
That was a fight to remember but Shippo wished he did'nt remember because Kikyo was a lot stronger than Kagome in priestess abilities and archery. At one point the army of demons backed off and Shippo looked around and saw Kagome with at least eight arrows in her and Kikyo with only three.
The battle raged and finally a well placed Wind Scar got him from behind. But like all superpowerful bad guys Naraku had to go out with a big bang. His final attacked nearly killed everyone but Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, but Kirara died of her wounds and the poisen of a youkai they did'nt have a cure for, and also blew the Shikon no Tama in half. And like before the pieces were scattered all over the place.
All that's in the past now but Shippo knows that for the hundreds of years he lived he will never forget that day or the passing of a friend. A noise caught his attention and pulled him out of his memories of the past to the present but it was only a bird. He sniffed the air but he knew Inuyasha would be down wind, he was a lot better at this than he was.
Ever since the defeat of Naraku Inuyasha started teaching Shippo hunting and fighting skills for when he started living on his own. This was a hunting and fighting lesson, sneaking up on you're enemy or prey and taking them by surprise. Shippo has gotten better but was never able to beat Inuyasha in a fair fight, but they've only been at it for a year.
A tree moved and Shippo looked in that direction but relized it was a mistake. "Gotcha!" Shippo tried to dodge the attack he knew was coming but then was punched in the head into the ground. Shippo ate dirt for what seemed the tenth time that day. As he got up and brushed himself of he turned and glared at Inuyasha.
His mentor had changed little over the course of two years, everything was the same exept for the scar he had on his neck from the battle with Naraku where Naraku tried to decapitate him. Even the smug grin was exactly the same as it had been for about the five years he knew him.
He decided he would punch Inuyasha but decided not to because he knew Inuyasha would counterattack and he would eat dirt again. The camp was a good distance from where they were so he turned to Inuyasha. "How 'bout we just go back to camp with what we have so we could cook and eat? I'm starving?" They originaly came out to catch some game for dinner and they got about eight rabbits and where on there way back when Inuyasha dissappeared.
"All right, but as soon as the sun hits the horizon we are out here for another hour of training before Kagome wakes up." "Alright." They have been searching for the remaining pieces of the Shikon no Tama ever since it broke. And every mourning before Kagome woke up Shippo and Inuyasha would hunt or fight. Maroku and Sango decided to start a family and that left them alone, but Shippo did'nt mind as long as he was with Kagome he was happy.
As they entered the camp Kagome looked up and again Shippo felt a pang of sorrow for the scar that marked her right forearm, it did'nt seem to Shippo that anyone came out of that battle with at least three or more scars, Shippo knew Inuyasha had at least five new ones. But she smiled at them while they gathered around fire and Inuyasha and Shippo began to skin and gut the rabbits while Kagome dipped into thier supplies and pulled out some vegetables to cook with the rabbit.
Shippo did'nt really like vegetables but for Kagome he would eat just about anything. After awhile dinner was finally finished, Shippo had two rabbits and a bunch of vegetables. The vegetables had funny tastes to them and were'nt really filling to he ate them first to get them out of the way and tried to savor the two rabbits but they were finished all to fast.
Inuyasha relized Shippo was still hungry and gave him half of his fourth rabbit while Kagome ate her single rabbit with more vegetables than Shippo had. Shippo finished his half of rabbit and while he was'nt full it was enough, Inuyasha told him that he should get used to only have enough for the times when his hunts are'nt that good. Inuyasha was just about to jump into the tree that overlooked the camp when... "Eat your vegetables Inuyasha" said Kagome in a quiet voice.
Inuyasha stopped in mid-jump and looked at the plate with the funny tasting vegetables on it then looked at Kagome and was about to jump anyway before she told him to eat it again. "Why should I? It's not like I'm a growing boy like Shippo." "Because if you want Shippo to eat his then you have to set an example.""Even if I don't eat mine he will still it his because you tell him to."
Kagome looked at him through half closed eyes and said, "Is that what you're going to tell our children?" Inuyasha looked at Shippo and back at Kagome but he smelled uneasy. As he was growing his sense of smell began to enhance he was able to smell people's moods and how they are feeling. Right now Kagome smelt calm but a little embarrased and Inuyasha's unease was growing.
Finally with a last look at Shippo he sat down and wolfed down his meal with a grimace. Then he set it down and jumped into his tree. Shippo Knew the old Inuyasha would'nt have eaten this stuff unless he was threatened with the "sit" word, and even after he would have had some sort of smart remark for Kagome, but ever since they were...married?... he thought that's what the word was, Inuyasha has calmed down and listens to Kagome a lot more.
Kagome cleared everything and got ready to lay down when, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" a scream ripped through the air it sounded like a boy but it also souded scared. "Let's go Shippo." "What do you think it was? It sounded human to me.""I don't know but you stay here Kagome." She nodded and said "You be careful, remember were near a town alright?" They both said ok and went of into the night.
That's it for chapter 2, take a guess who screamed and what does it mean for my third chapter? I did'nt really like this chapter but I hope you did and I promise the third will be better than the first. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! EVERYBODY!!!
