Miroku was standing out side the palace waiting for Shippo and his assassins. He looked around the city still admiring the architecture of the fox demons. The palace was the biggest building here. In front of it was smaller buildings, which got smaller when closer to the middle. In the middle was some kind of statue of a diamond table with a huge golden star on it. The ball was made of the substance as the strange colored stones that line most of the roof. According to the fox demons, it’s called a glow stone.

 

 

Miroku sighed and looked at the palace door.

 

 

What’s taking them so long? He thought.

 

 

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

 

 

In the palace basement the selected team was getting ready to depart. A young redish brown head male fox demon was watching them with envy. Just then the celling doors open and in came Shippo and his other advisor, Kalohu.

 

 

“We’re ready sire,” said one.

 

 

“Good,” said Shippo

 

 

He turn to the young male, who smiled at him.

 

 

“Shuro I need you to stay here and watch over the city while I’m gone,” Shippo ordered.

 

 

Shuro frowned.

 

 

But,” he started in protest “Je suis assez vieux pour combattre !” <I’m old enough to fight!>

 

 

“No,” Shippo said firmly, “You will stay here. Kalohu make sure he does.”

 

 

Kalohu bowed and said, “Yes sire.”

 

 

Shippo started to walk out behind the rest.

 

 

“Father!” Shuro shouted.

 

 

Shippo stopped and looked over his shoulder at him.

 

 

“Ce qui es-tu si peur de?” <What are you so afraid of?> Shuro asked.

 

 

Shippo look ed away.

 

 

“Votre mort.” <Your death.> he answered before he left.

 

 

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Shippo looked away.

“Votre mort.” he answered before he left. (Your death.)

 

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

 

Miroku lead them to the eastern forest temple. It took them all day, but that didn’t bother the fox demons much. Especially the trained assassins. There were use to it. They were now at a wall that wasn’t guarded.

“My monks and I will distract the guards at the front while you and your people can sneak in through here,” Miroku instructed Shippo while pointing at the wall, “You can jump the wall, but we can’t. The high priest will be expecting us, but not you. Kill all the rest if you want, but make sure the high priest stays alive.”

“All right,” Shippo said, “We’ll wait for your signal.”

Miroku nodded and lead his party to the front. Once the guards were all there Shippo and the fox assassins moved toward the temple entrance.

“Une fois nous entrons, a divisé dans les groupes de trois,” ordered Shippo, “Une fois vous trouvez l’haut prêtre, l’entourez. Tuer tout dans votre chemin.” (Once we enter, divided in the groups of three. Once you find the high priest, surround him. Kill all in your path.)

“Oui Empereur Shippo,” they said. (Yes Emperor Shippo.)

After a few moments the fox demons had the high priest surrounded. He pulled his blade out.

“That won’t work,” said Miroku coming through the crowd of fox demons, “these fox demons are the same ones that cut China’s population in half.”

The high priest’s eyes went big.

“Now if you be so kind as to come with me,” Miroku said, “The feudal lord has a few questions for you.”

The high priest glared at him.

“Long live Lord Hoku!” he yelled.

In a blink of an eye the high priest put his blade through his heart.

“Damn,” said Miroku.

He looked at Shippo.

“Thank you for your help, old friend,” he said. “I need to head back to my lord and give him the news.”

Shippo looked over at his people.

“Retourner à Solarira,” he ordered, “Je serai de retour dans quelques jours. Et un de vous aurait-il des objections disant mon fils pour ne pas s’inquiéter ?” (Return to Solarira. I’ll be back in a few days. And would one of you mind telling my son not to worry?)

“J’engendrerai,” said one of the assassins. (I will sire.)

“Merci,” said Shippo. (Thank you.)

He tun back to Miroku.

“I would like to meet this lord,” he said.

Miroku stared with his mouth open for a while.

“Okay, but don’t expect a royal greeting,” he said.

Shippo laughed.

“I don’t really mind,” he said.

 

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

 

It took them half a day to get there. They were standing outside the gate.

“All right Shippo be ready to be amazed,” Miroku said.

They walked into the gate and Shippo gasped. This city was five times bigger then Solarira.

“Welcome to Demontra,” said Miroku, “the city were demons, half demons, and humans live together in piece.”

They went to the other side. Miroku bowed at the guards at the front entrance.

“Is the feudal lord in today?” he asked.

“Yes,” answered one of them, “He should be in the throne room.”

They went into the throne room. There a man with long silver hair, white puppy ears, wearing a red Kamoto with a white jacket was standing in front of the throne chair. Miroku bowed. Shippo hesitantly did the same.

“My lord I bring you some good news and some bad news,” said Miroku.

The lord’s golden eyes looked from him to Shippo then back at him.

“What is the bad news?” he asked.

“The high priest from the Eastern Forest Temple has taken his own life,” answered Miroku, “he was a loyalest of Hoku.”

The lord closed his eyes and sighed. He open them again.

“And the good news?” he asked.

Miroku pushed Shippo forward.

“I’m sure you have heard that the fox demons have come back?” Miroku asked.

The lord nodded.

“This is their Emperor,” said Miroku with a smile, “but doesn’t he look familiar to you?”

The lord looked at Shippo’s eyes.

“Yes,” he answered.

“Go ahead and tell him your name,” Miroku said.

“My name is Shippo,” he said.

The lord smiled.

“It’s been years,” the lord said.

Shippo just looked at him.

“I’m Inuyasha,” he said.

Shippo’s eyes widen.

Who died and made him lord? He thought.

Inuyasha laughed.

“I know that would surprise you,” he said.

Shippo smiled. Them a white blur dashed behind Inuyasha. Shippo lend to one side a little to look. He saw a boy with ears, hair, and eyes to match Inuyasha, but he also had a white tail and a crescent moon shape mark on his forehead. Inuyasha pushed the child in front of him.

“This is my son Yuko,” introduce Inuyasha, “Yuko this is Shippo, the kit I always talked about.”

“Nice to meet you,” said Yuko with a bow, “Um is it okay if I call you big brother?”

“Sure,” said Shippo with a smile and going down to his eye level, “How old are you?”

“Six,” Yuko answered.

“Two years younger than my son,” said Shippo.

“You have a son?” Inuyasha asked in surprise.

“Why yes,” answered Shippo getting back up, “How would you like to meet him and see our city?”

“I would love too,” he answered.

Shippo smiled. He couldn’t wait to bring the man that he always seen as his father since he was a kit to see the city he fought to long to bring to life.
