SA ch. 4 - Into the Well
Souta's Adventure ch. 4: into the Well

Souta sat in his room, thinking about what Kagome had said about Inuyasha. 'I know he can't love Kikyou more than Kagome. Inuyasha's smarter than that.' He opened his hand, revealing the Shikon shard he had stolen from Kagome months before. "I'll just go and see him," said Souta. "And they'll get back together again."

Shippou sat on the edge of the well, staring down into the darkness, waiting for Kagome. There was a flash at the bottom of the well and Shippou stood up. "Kagome!" he cried, and jumped into the well. He could feel the presence of one of Kagome's Shikon shards. However, when he landed at the bottom of the well, the person there wasn't Kagome. "Who are you?' asked Shippou.
"My name's Souta," said the young boy. "I'm looking for Inuyasha."

So, you're Kagome's brother?" asked Shippou.
"Yeah," said Souta, nodding.
"How's Kagome doing?"
"Not so good," said Souta, frowning. "She's really depressed. She thinks Inuyasha hates her or something, but I know that's not true."
Shippou folded his small arms across his chest. "I know Inuyasha doesn't hate Kagome, too, but he can be a real jerk sometimes."
Souta shrugged. I have to talk to him. Are we close to the village you were talking about?"
"Yeah," said Shippou. "Inuyasha might not be there, though. But Miroku would probably know."
"Who's Miroku?" asked Souta.
"He's a monk. He's always hitting on girls and making money by doing fake exorcisms and stuff. But he really does have magic."
"Is he the guy with the hole in his hand that Kagome told me about?"
Shippou nodded. "Yeah. Naraku cursed every male in his family with an Air Rip in their hand. Miroku says that if Naraku isn't destroyed, the Air Rip will someday kill him."
Souta frowned. "Shippou, you're a full-demon, right?" Shippou nodded. "How come you're not evil, like most demons?"
"I was raised differetly," said Shippou. "Why?"
Souta shrugged. "I don't know. If you had the Shikon no Tama, what would you use it for?"
Shippou stopped. "I don't know. For Naraku to disappear, I guess. Or maybe for my father to come back."
The two were silent for the rest of the walk to the village.
