Time Traveler Katsumi

The Omake Chapter

"Phew! I've finally managed to make it back to Japan again. I really thought I was a goner that time!" the boar youkai, Chokyukai, said as he walked through a wooded area. After being hit by Kagome's sacred arrow with a Chinese o-fuda tied to it, he had been forcibly sent back to China, but Chokyukai liked Japan better, and he just couldn't let Inuyasha and the others go after what they did. He lost so many beautiful brides that day! His kappa and monkey henchmen were too cowardly to return with him, so he just left the two useless fools behind. "I can't believe they managed to get their hands on a talisman from my homeland! And sweet and lovely Kagome actually shot me, too!" he cried in disbelief. "Unforgiveable! I just can't forgive them! I won't rest until I—" Chokyukai instantly froze when he felt a 'ping' on his bishoujo radar. "Ah, the scent of a young and beautiful girl~!" he cried happily, completely forgetting about his grudge. "Ojou-san~!" he called out cheerfully as he dove out of the bushes and charged at the golden-haired beauty ahead of him. She turned around to face him, and Chokyukai was practically reduced to a puddle of goo at the mere sight of her lovely visage. He had never seen such beauty before! Her golden locks... her shining eyes that were a unique combination of a lovely green with copper around her pupil... her fair skin... her slender and graceful curves...! He just had to have her!

Katsumi stared at the strange creature before her, a little disturbed by the drool that was starting to drip down from the corners of his mouth and the hungry look in his eyes. She had smelled him coming a mile away, but she had hoped he would just mind his own business since she was busy trying to find some meat for Rin to eat while the young girl was searching for wild plants to eat as a side dish for a more balanced meal. She was a growing girl, after all, so Katsumi wanted to make sure Rin was getting the proper nutrition. She wanted to continue her search, but it felt like it might be a bad idea to turn her back to this weirdo, so Katsumi decided she might as well find out why he was staring at her like that.

"... Can I help you?" Katsumi asked, raising an eyebrow at the pig. The words themselves might have been polite, but it sounded more like she was actually saying "Get lost." Her woman's intuition was telling her he was probably some kind of pervert or the creepy stalker type.

"Are you concerned about me? What a kind girl! With such kindness and beauty, you must be a tennyo!" Chokyukai exclaimed with admiration, obviously missing the real meaning behind her words. He was already blinded by infatuation with his lovely new target. Katsumi grimaced as she shuddered.

'This guy... is definitely the creepy stalker type...' she thought as she slowly started inching away from him. "Right... thanks, but I have to be going now. My friends are waiting for me..." she said cautiously, preparing to make a run for it. There was something about this pig that made her feel like the moment she made any sudden movements, something extremely unpleasant might happen to her.

"Ah, wait! Will you be my bride!?" Chokyukai asked anxiously as he stealthily got ready to pull out one of his mind-controlling coronets, just in case.

"Not a snowball's chance in hell," Katsumi replied bluntly. Normally she would've tried to let someone who had just confessed to her down a little more gently, but you had to be really clear and blunt with his type, or they'd never get it through their thick skulls that 'no' means 'no'.

"Eh!? Why not!?" Chokyukai cried in dismay, seriously shocked by such a harsh rejection.

"I might like pork chops, but that doesn't mean I want to marry a pig," Katsumi deadpanned. "Besides, I'm already in love with someone else."

"I'm a boar!" Chokyukai shouted indignantly. Why was she saying the same things as that treacherous Kagome!? And was she really already taken!? He refused to believe it!
