Manten:
Now that you
mention it...
| Interested,
Hiten walks
over.
| Sorry, anchan!
I
found some but...
| Hiten:
What do you
mean, 'but'?
Surely you didn't forget these shards
because of a girl,
|
|
|
|
|
| and let
them | out of
your | GRASP?! | Such ferocity!
|
|
|
|
|
That girl slumps down
dead.
Fried too,
one would
suppose.
| Manten:
Anchan, so
s-sorry!
| Hiten:
Really,
you're so useless!
If you weren't my brother, I'd'
have killed you more than once!
| Kagome:
Wh-what's with this guy? He's
more dangerous!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Eyecatch!
| Some time passes.
Manten must've told his
brother of Shippou, because Hiten
says:
| What? That fox brat
had Shikon shards?
| Manten
asks where
he's heading.
Isn't it obvious? Let's
go.
|
|
|
|
|
Kagome sneaks
off:
A
chance to escape...
| Manten:
Wait a bit, anchan.
| He hurls down a Kagome-sized
| butcher knife, she just makes it past its
cutting line.
|
|
|
|
|
Kagome demands
to know what he's doing.
[Must've hit her head a bit
in that explosion, ]
| Making sure you won't escape by killing
you, what else? You're my precious
hair-potion-to-be.
[trying to escape with her
captor still here...] | Kagome hooks
in:
Wait! If you kill
me...
| Manten takes the
bait:
If I kill
you...
|
|
|
|
|
And Kagome's
reeling in:
Um.. you'll never get
the Shikon no Tama!
| Good, this
might work.
| This idiot is
okay.
| The older one
is..
Alright! This'll work!
|
|
|
|
|
You two..have you
heard
of Inuyasha?
He's really
powerful.
| Hiten has!:
Powerful? I've heard of him, but he's just
hanyou.
| Kagome insists:
He's powerful!
He's destroyed all the
youkai he has met so far...
| ...and now has
collected almost all of the Shikon no Tama
shards.
The two are surprised, and -
|
|
|
|
|
Good, they fell for
it.
| Hiten:
Hey.
You're not lying, are you?
| Kagome keeps their
attention:
You see...
Inuyasha is in love
with me. | Hiten doesn't look so trusting. Manten
is...
well, Manten.
|
|
|
|
|
If you offer me, he'll
give up all those Shikon no Tama shards with no
fuss.
| Manten:
Hiten-anchan,
she's certainly
lying...
Hiten:
I'm
willing to believe her.
| Girl!
Show us where
that Inuyasha guy is.
However!
| If that story of yours
turns out to be a
lie...
|
|
|
|
| This
cute face will turn into a charcoal lump. | Kagome:
He means
it...
| ...that
monster.
