Wolves in the Stronghold
- Nuriko and Hotohori, pretending to be women, serve a group of bandits some drinks. Hotohori worries about Miaka...but is interupted when a guy starts hitting on him again. In another part of the room, a group of bandits are talking about Eiken (that's the gross leader dudes' name....his NAME is even ugly!!!!!) and how he just took over as leader when Genrou (the real leader) is away on a trip. They comment on how Miaka is in for a rough time. Hotohori hears all of this and gets pissed. The bandits figure out that they (Hotohori and Nuriko) are really men.
- Eiken attempts to rape Miaka, and Koji can hear her screams. He contemplates as to whether he should help her......but he doesn't. He thengets ambushed by Hotohori, who holds his sword up to his neck and asks him to take them to Miaka. Before things go too far, Nuriko punches a hole in the wall where Eiken is and they save her. Hotohori insists on killing Eiken for even TOUCHING the Miko, but Miaka stops him.....for he has to tell them who has a character on his body. But she gives Nuriko the "OK" to hurt him a bit. Eiken gives in a yells out "Tasuki has the character on his body!!!"
- A breeze blows through the room, and Miaka dissappears. Genrou, a handsome fiery-haired young man, in the doorway takes Miaka as a hostage. He says that his trip is over and that Eiken has made himself leader. He also thinks that Miaka is Eiken's wife!!!!!!!! Hotohori tries to attack Genrou, but Genrou throws some papers at him that turn into wolves!!!! He escapes with Miaka and says that Eiken has to challenge him for the positiion as leader.
- Eiken takes out a special fan, which can throw flames, and burns the wolves. Nuriko and Hotohori escape to get Miaka......leaving a VERY pissed off Eiken. He yells out that without the fan, Genrou doesn't have a chance against him.
- Genrou, who has taken Miaka to an isolated house that only him and his friends know about, tries to get with Miaka. She smacks him and says he shouldn't underestimate her. She starts acting like an idiot by saying all this boxing stuff...pretty funny actually. Genrou says that he gives up and that he doesn't really like women anyway, but Miaka is still his hostage. Miaka takes off his shirt, to his dismay, trying to look for a character on this body. He screams at her that he has no idea what she is talking about....and Koji walks in.
- In Kutou, Tamahome thinks about Miaka. Yui comes in and gives him some new clothes to wear. He tells Yui that him and Miaka know that she was attacked when she came to Kutou. Yui gets upset and says that she tried to kill herself and that she should have died. Tama comforts her. Nakago sees this whole thing outside her window.
- Miaka says that she will help get Genrou his leader position back. Koji explains that their former leader died and wanted Genrou to be leader. But when Genrou left on a trip, ugly Eiken took over.
Now in the bushes, Genrou, Koji, and Miaka watch Eiken preach to the bandits that they will fight against Genrou and Koji tonight. The only reason why the bandits are obeying Eiken is because of the tessen (the fan that can incenerate enemies). Genrou takes out the "papers" that he threw at everyone before. He explains to Miaka that you can write whatever you want on the paper and it will appear. So.....Miaka starts writing stuff on them and gives them back to Genrou (who doesn't know she wrote on them)
- Hotohori and Nuriko meet up ready to kill Genrou, but Miaka convinces them to help Genrou get the tessen back instead.
- The bandits attack and Genrou throws the papers at them and says "appear wolves!!" Instead, a piece of cake appears!!!!! He tries again and again but more food appears!!!!!!! Turns out baka Miaka wrote different foods on the papers...what a baka!!!!!! Eiken appears with all the bandits and stupid Miaka runs to him and tries to take the tessen from him, making herself a hostage. (her stupidity is amazing) Now they are in big trouble.
- Suddenly, Tamahome appears!!!! He kicks the crap out of the bandits and Eiken, and Genrou takes the tessen back. Miaka is so happy to see him that she runs over to embrace........but he turns into one of those papers. She wrote his name in one of the papers so that he would appear.......she holds it and cries.
