Others who seek the Shikon no Tama [Page 8/9]

Enigmas of a Puffy:
And strike it



...doesn't.



Inuyasha falls in defeat.
Kagome:
Is Kikyou really a
master archer?
Inuyasha:
It's you who's a fake!


Puffy has enlarged!
Alright, the target's bigger.
Shoot!

 And once more the arrow fails to complete its path.
No more can
Inuyasha stand this.


I got it now! You are definitely not Kikyou's reincarnation!

I won't expect anything from you anymore! exclaims our hot-tempered bishie before leaping off.Leaving Kagome alone who calls him, but he doesn't return.
Puffy flies over a village..
Homing inonthis cute l'il kid,
and flying him off. Woman:
No! My baby!
Inuyasha:
Quick to attack, are you?
I'll slice you up
along with your food!
Onlookers watch from the bridge.
Kagome!:
No! You have to
save the baby!
Inuyasha: Idiot! 
He says,
 
SANKONTESSOU!
slicing Puffy, 
 
whose pieces fall to the river, along with the kid.
 
Ah!
 
 
Inuyasha rock-leaps, searching for that evading purple jewel.Meanwhile, the poor kid drifts away as villagers chase.Kagome runs along the river bank, removes her socks and shoes,
and dives in.
 
 
 
 
She's thankful for having taken a swimming class.
 
 
From shore, the villagers comment on an unusual swim, remarking on Kagome's speed.
One shouts out that it's a water sprite, and his first time seeing one.
Kagome tells the boy to relax as she helps him,
 
and that fellow onshore further comments on 'Water Sprite's' ability to swim.
Kagome doesn't like that
all that much.
Inuyasha:
Hey, girl! Where's the Shikon jewel?
Mother and child greet.
 
 
And Kagome gives Inuyasha the coldest of 'Hmmph's.
 
Wh-what?!
 
 
Kagome is greatly thanked.
 
Puffy's pieces
 
collect together,
 
and the whole Puffy rises once more.
