"What was that 'Ox Tiger' direction you were mumbling about last night?" InuYasha asked groggily. InuYasha sat up from where he was sleeping. Kagome was already awake. She just came back from her era to get 'Ninja Food' and supplies.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Kagome replied. "But the direction of the Ox Tiger is near Mount Hakurei. I saw Sesshomaru fly off in that direction with his demon pet, A-Un."
InuYasha growled softly.
"I know you don't like him, and I don't either. How about we beat him to a pulp this time for sure?" Kagome said confidently.
InuYasha nodded. "I would love that. Thank you, Kagome."
"Anything for you," she winked. "InuYasha."
InuYasha blushed profusely. "Don't mention it."
********************************************************
InuYasha and Kagome were traveling in the direction of the Ox Tiger to find Sesshomaru. So far, they haven't run into him...yet.
They trekked until they got to Mt. Hakurei, the sacred mountain. Kagome was hardly able to walk since they left, and the journey was tiring.
"Should we go around the mountain?" Kagome panted.
InuYasha smelled the air. "We'll rest, but not go around. Sesshomaru's scent is here." He said disgusted.
They headed for a small, spread out forest about a quarter mile from the mountain. There, they set up a small fire and layed out one big sheet that Kagome brought back from her era.
"I'm going hunting, do you want to come?" Kagome asked politely.
"Yea, I'd better go with you so I can protect you...or if there's any demons I can slay 'em" InuYasha remarked excitedly.
Kagome laughed. "Okay,"
********************************************************
InuYasha splashed around in the water trying to catch a fish. Kagome used a fishing rod instead.
"I can't catch a fiiish!" InuYasha whined.
"Try using this," Kagome handed him her fishing rod.
"This stick smells strange," InuYasha sniffed.
"Try it anyway. It'll help. You can't always use your claws ya know." Kagome informed.
They sat there holding the fishing rod together. Suddenly, the rod tugged slightly.
"FOOD!" InuYasha yelped excitedly.
Kagome laughed. "Calm down. Let's reel it in."
Kagome winded the string and on the hook, was a six inch trout.
"YEA! WE WON'T STARVE TONIGHT!!" He yelped again.
Kagome laughed. How can he not be funny when he's soaking wet? She thought to herself.
*************************************************
When they gor back to their "campsite", the cooked the fish over the ablaze wood.
"I don't eat fish all that much, but it's really good smoked." InuYasha said thought a mouth full.
"It is really good," Kagome smiled. "When we get back to traveling, are we really going throughout Mount Hakurei? Because when we can here last time, you were turned into a mortal."
"Yea, but that isn't important right now. All I want to do is kill Sesshomaru with my bare hands." InuYasha grabbed the air and pretended to strangle it.
Kagome yawned. She was getting tired. "I'm going to sleep. Goodnight."
"Goodnight Kagome. I love you."
"I love you too."
