Hiten:
Ho, Manten.
You're
pretty useful now. | Manten laughs
and laughs:
Anchan complimented me!
Hya hya hya hya!
| This is all
too much for Shippou:
Unforgivable!
| and he
launches himself, teeth gripping
Manten's neck. |
|
|
|
|
Manten calls
him an idiot, trying to wrench him off.
| But Shippou is
persistent:
Even if I die,
I won't let go!
| Hiten pulls:
You brat, let go!
| Shippou won't
relent.
|
 |
|
|
|
If you don't,
I'll smash your skull!
|
|
Hiten:
Manten, get too
excited; and you'll get blood on the fur. Then it can't be a good hat.
| Manten agrees,
and Shippou fights on.
|
|
 |
|
 |
Inuyasha:
Geez...
| I ain't the nicest guy in the world, but you guys sicken even me! | And he
blood-blades to Hiten.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hiten:
Interesting! Fight me
more!
| Inuyasha runs
to Tessaiga.
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Hiten dodges,
challenging Inuyasha's aim.
| Inuyasha:
Did I get him?
| Manten turns
to see-
|
|
|
|
|
|
| He calls his
brother!
| Kagome runs
over:
Shippou-chan!
Tessaiga transforms to its rusty self.
| Tessaiga! I have to get it to Inuyasha...
Shippou mumbles 'father...'
Right, the fur of [his]
father...
|
|
|
|
|
Hiten speeds
forward to:
Manten!!
| Inuyasha
shouts:
Kagome! Get away from
there, quickly!!
| Hiten
thunderizes Kagome away with a blast,
| hurling hard
the two to the ground.
|
|
|
|
|
Hiten braces
him up:
Manten... | He answers:
Hiten-anchan, I lost all
my hair...I don't want to live anymore.
| Hiten:
What are you talking
about, Manten?! Get a hold on yourself!
| Manten:
Anchan's hair...is
Father's...I wanted to look like Father, too.
|
|
|
|
|
It would've been better if Mother was a bit prettier,
and had more hair...
| But you know, I wonder what it was Father loved about
Mother enough to marry her? Hiten-anchan...
| Hiten:
It doesn't matter how you
look like! You're my only precious little brother!
| Manten:
Thank you, Hiten-anchan..
I used to think, to be a caterpillar in my next life...
|
|
|
|
|
|
One all covered in hair...
But not any more...
| Next time I'm born again, even without any hair,
| I still want to be your little brother again...You
don't mind, do you, anchan? | He falls
silent.
Hiten:
Manten! Hey, Manten! |
