Ch7: Mystery of the Shards

Y/N POV

A few minutes later after my talk with Kagome I was half dressed when I heard some rustling in the nearby foliage. Considering that I knew that Kaede was still nearby the fire and watching the other jewel shard and Kagome was still in the water, there was only one person.

"How long have you been watching me Inuko?" I asked.

"I just got here." She replied.

Inuko POV

Actually I had been watching him since he first got out of the water, but he didnt need to know that. I had to keep reminding myself that Y/N is 14.

Once again, he is too good looking to be 14!

Why couldn't he be 15 that way it wouldn't be that awkward. The 185 year age difference not included.

Y/N POV

"Anyway since you are here, I guess that you are trying to steal the Shikon Jewel shards the me and Kagome have." I said, getting her to nod.

"You are half right." Inuko said. "While I'm perfectly okay with getting that girl's shard, after last night I'm not risking killing you for that shard until there is a way it could be removed safely."

Honestly I was not expecting that as a response. Before I could even respond, Inuko continued.

"The only reason I'm even saying that is because you are the only person in this village who has gone out of your way to see if I'm alright. Besides if I'm to travel with you and that girl to look for the shards like the old hag said, then you will help to make sure that she will stop saying that accursed word!" She ranted, causing me to chuckle.

"I'll try, but only if you try to be nicer to Kagome. That way she will be less likely to say osuwari." I said, causing Inuko to flinch before sighing and fixing a glare at me. "My bad, but you get the point."

"Like I said 2 days ago, I'll think about it. Only I'll give it a lot more thought this time. I really would like to not taste dirt anytime soon." Inuko said before her ears perked up. "Speaking of which I better get away that is exactly going to happen. I advise that you fo the same."

As she disappeared back into the nearby shrubbery, I decided to follow her advice.

Thankfully it was just in the nick of time.

I had exited to see Kagome carrying the spare set that Kaede gave her, only that she had a towl to cover herself.

We both blushed at our current situation before splitting up and running in different directions. Kagome ran into the bushes while I ran over to Kaede and a very amused looking Inuko. As I sat next to the firepit, the drawstring pouch in Kaede's hands emitteda soft purple glow and lazily started to pull itself in my direction.

"It's still doing that?" Inuko questioned with her amusement now gone. "I thought that shard would have stopped doing that by now."

"Considering what happened last night, I think that if this happens everytime we find a jewel fragment then it's going to take a while to get used to." I said grimly while thinking about what happened last night.

(Flashback- Last Night)

After Kagome and Inuko came back, Kaede answered their questions about what had happened and had tasked all three of us to collect the shards before they fell into the wrong hands. 

Considering that they were flung all over Japan there was a high chance that some of them were already in the wrong hands. If not, then the shards will soon be sought be all kinds of people looking for their power. Word of an event like the Shikon Jewel shattering will spread out throughout Japan and humans and yokai from all walks of life will do anything to gather them.
