Someone I Care

Chapter IX

(Y/n) returned from the bridge between the two worlds, she approached the village and heard a commotion. (Y/n) saw Miroku, who was being tied up, and Kagome, then Sango, who were trying to talk to the residents. 

I watched from the top of the tree. "Are you sure it was Miroku who tricked you?" Sango said. The residents unanimously said yes, "wow..." said (Y/n), surprised to see the residents were so angry.

Inuyasha finally spoke and shouted, "YOU ARE SO NOISY...!!! (all residents are silent) If Miroku is the culprit, you should have proof," said Inuyasha. The residents all grinned and took out evidence in the form of leaves, "pffttt... hahaha" (Y/n) couldn't help but laugh so loudly. 

This made all the residents and Inuyasha's group turn towards her. "(Y/n)?!" Kagome and Sango said in unison. "Miko?" said several villagers who saw (Y/n).

"Ooo... I'm sorry if I disturbed your conversation hahaha", said (Y/n), who was still laughing. "What are you doing, laughing at us? We are in a disaster," one of the residents protested to (Y/n). 

"I'm sorry hahaha... but you were fooled by a raccoon demon (glances at Miroku), and I'm sure the priest knows who did it," said (Y/n), grinning now. "That's why I said let go of my ties," said Miroku. 

I got down from the tree, and Kagome approached me. "(Y/n)-chan, what are you doing here?" asked Kagome. "I'm doing my duties, (turns to the residents) do you know this Grandma, uhm... her name was Chio, and His husband's name is Otsuka?" asked (Y/n) to the residents.

A small child approached (Y/n) and told her where Grandma and her husband lived. (Y/n) thanked the small child. Inuyasha got closer to (Y/n), "What are you going to do to them?" asked Inuyasha, a little annoyed. 

(Y/n) just smiled at Inuyasha. She knew Inuyasha didn't like her, but at the same time, she knew that deep in Inuyasha's heart. He was very worried and cared about her. (Y/n) Just giggle, "If I tell you, you will be surprised even though you already know my identity", said (Y/n). 

"tsk... whatever", said Inuyasha, leaving (Y/n) and Kagome.

"So? What are you going to do with them?" Kagome asked again. "I'll pick them up, it's time for them to go," said (Y/n). 

Hearing this, Kagome got a bit startled, "Aren't you lonely carrying out duties like this?" Kagome asked again. (Y/n) just smiled and went to do her job. Kagome looked at (Y/n) with a sad expression and turned back to her friends.

(Y/n) walked to the house where Grandma Chio and her husband Otsuka were, when (Y/n) entered the house, Grandma and her husband had breathed their last breath. "Are you ready to go?" (Y/n) asked them, and they answered by nodding. 

Then (Y/n) started walking while being followed by the souls of Grandma Chio and her husband, Otsuka. (Y/n) then went to the next village to pick up another soul. There was only one soul left that (Y/n) had to pick up, and he was a little boy named Kuro. 

(Y/n) found the child and Inuyasha's group. (Y/n) approached them, Kagome turned towards (Y/n), and she was very surprised to see (Y/n) who was followed by many spirits around her.

Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara were also surprised when (Y/n) stood in front of them. Inuyasha tried to block (Y/n) but was held back by Kagome. They let (Y/n) pass, and (Y/n) approached the child. 

He was in his mother's lap, who was crying. "He's gone... I'm not ready to be abandoned by him... sob... sob..." said the mother, sobbing because she had lost her child. (Y/n) wiped the mother's tears, "Sorry I couldn't save him, but I came to pick him up," said (Y/n).
