Juromaru and Kageromaru
Shippou- Sure is quiet and peaceful out.
Kagome- You said it. Our battles seem just like a bad dream. [gasp] I can sense a Shikon jewel shard.
InuYasha- What?
Kagome- And it�s closing in fast.
Inu-Tachi- [scream]
Kouga- Yo.
Kagome- It�s Kouga.
Kouga- I picked up on your scent, Kagome. So I came to see ya. You�ve been well I hope?
InuYasha- What do you want ya mangy wolf?
Kouga- [growls]
Kagome- Come on, don�t go picking a fight already.
InuYasha- Stay out of it. I may have to kill him, or worse.
Kouga- Psh. You haven�t changed one bit, Mutt. You�d think you could lose the arrogance once in a while. Kagome, dont�cha get tired of being with this guy?
Kagome- Uh-oh.
InuYasha- You�
Shippou- Don�t be so rude to my poor friend Kouga. you see, he�s not always like this. He just gets uptight when you come around, because he thinks you�re going to steal Kagome away.
InuYasha- Save it!
Shippou- Owww!
Kagome- (True as that may be, you�re not helping.)
Kouga- You really need to grow up Mutt-face.
~ Title ~
Juromaru and Kageromaru
InuYasha- You want me to tell you where Naraku lives? If I knew that, I wouldn�t be wasting my time, battling his demons.
Hakkaku- Does that mean you don�t know?
InuYasha- It�s almost impossible to find. Naraku�s projected a barrier around his castle. Let us avenge the death of your comrades. All I ask is that you hand over those jewel shards in your legs.
Kouga- [growls]
InuYasha- And high tail it back to your den! Uhh!
Kouga- Something the matter, Mutt-face? You�re swinging your sword offly slowly.
InuYasha- [growls]
Shippou- The Tetsusaiga�s still too heavy for him.
Miroku- And it wont get any lighter overnight.
InuYasha- Come back and fight!
Kouga- Sorry Dog-Breath. But I don�t have any time to waste sparring with you.
InuYasha- Coward! Come back here!
Kouga- Now, you take good care of my Kagome while I go waste Naraku. Don�t you dare lay a finger on her. [grunts]
InuYasha- What?
Sango- He sure is cocky for a guy who just ran away from battle.
Kagome- Come on InuYasha. Now don�t get so riled up.
InuYasha- [grumbles] [ear-tweak] Who said I was riled up?
Kagome- [sigh] (His jealousy is flattering sure, but I wouldn�t mind if he was a bit nicer.) You�re exhausting.
InuYasha- Huh? You mean you really are tired of being with me?
Kagome- Huh? What are you getting all depressed for? Don�t worry about what Kouga told you, InuYasha.
Miroku- He�s more concerned about what you told him, Kagome.
Sango- Um-hmm.
Kagome- Huh?
Kouga- [grunts]
Hakkaku- Huh? What is that?
Kouga- Looks like insects.
Ginta- Wait, Kouga!
Kouga- This is the same scent as Kagura�s. No mistaking it. Uhh. Huh?
Naraku- The young leader of the Wolf Demon Tribe. You picked up on my scent even before InuYasha.
Kouga- I know you. You�re Naraku! (His scent is identical to Kagura�s. He must be Naraku. You slaughtered my comrades and now I will avenge their deaths!)
(flashback)
Random Wolf- [screams]
(end flashback)
Naraku- [laughs] Pity for you, but I�m afraid you shall become fodder for my new incarnation.
Kouga- A cage. Pufh. I don�t know what kind of beast you brought, but the timing couldn�t be better, I�ll gladly get my revenge for my men.
Naraku- [laughs] Kouga, meet your opponent. Emerge from your cage Juromaru.
Kouga- [growls] (What�s the deal with him?) Have it your way, Naraku. I�ll take him out first. Then I�ll mash you both into the ground. what�s the hold up here? Hurry and release his shackles so I can get my hands on him.
Naraku- No. He�ll be enough of a challenge for you just as he is.
Kouga- [growls] All right. It�s his funeral! Uhh! Die! Uhh! [grunts] Argh! Get off me! [breathing heavily/grunts] He�s fast. Maybe even faster than me. Wait. What�s that chill in the air? It�s coming from that bit in his mouth. [grumbles]
InuYasha- I can smell Naraku!
Kagome- Wait up, InuYasha!
Miroku- Don�t go running off on your own! InuYasha, your not even strong enough to wield the Tetsusaiga yet!
InuYasha- Spare me! (It�s more than just Naraku�s scent. the stench of that pesky Kouga�s coming through, too. I�m the one who�s going to bring Naraku down. I won�t let that mangy wolf get him first!)
Kouga- Uhh! Uhh!
InuYasha- Kouga! What do you think you�re doing?
Kouga- Leave me alone! Can�t you see I�m busy?
InuYasha- What�d you say?
Kouga- Huh? How�d he catch up with me?
InuYasha- [grunting] Ahh! Nice job escaping, as usual, Kouga. He�s gone. Huh? Nuh! Uhh!
Naraku- You�ve finally shown up have you InuYasha?
InuYasha- Naraku!
Miroku- Naraku!
Naraku- Kouga must�ve fled when he saw he had no chance of victory. [laughs] He�s more intelligent than I took him for.
InuYasha- Huh. Who cares about him? I�m in a whole different class all together.
Miroku- Wait a minute. Is that another of Naraku�s incarnations?
Naraku- Juromaru. I shall remove you shackles. Go forth and fight to your hearts content.
Juromaru- [decapitates Naraku]
InuYasha- Huh?
Tachi- [gasps]
InuYasha- (What�s with this guy?)
Naraku- [Wicked laughter] Juromaru is unstoppable now that his mask has been removed. He will slaughter everything in his wake.
Juromaru- [exhales]
InuYasha- (I don�t like the looks of this Juromaru. He makes my skin crawl.)
Miroku- Even if Naraku was a demon puppet, it�s hard to believe he just beheaded his own ally.
Sango- Perhaps no one is his ally.
Kagome- That would explain why Naraku kept him shackled and bridled.
Juromaru- [exhales]
InuYasha- Uhh. Uhh! (What�s with this guy? He didn�t even try to dodge my attack. Is this a trap? No, that demon�s all brawn, he couldn�t think up complex battle plans.) All right, I�m gonna have to finish you off here and now. Uhh! Iron Reaver Soul� Uhh!
Miroku- He blocked it!
InuYasha- Uhh! Ah!
Kagome- InuYasha!
InuYasha- Uhh. Uhh. (How the hell? Did his arms just grow? Can he transform or something?)
Juromaru- [exhales]
Wolves- [howl]
Hakkaku- Did you find Naraku?
Ginta- Yeah. How come you came back?
Hakkaku- Don�t tell me you ran away?
Kouga- Ha! No chance. That Naraku brought another stupid looking side kick along with him. But that guy gave me a bad feeling, and I�ve learned to trust my instincts. Heh, I bet InuYasha wishes he�d done the same. He�s probably getting beaten to a pulp by Juromaru as we speak.
Hakkaku- You mean you saw InuYasha?
Kouga- Yep.
Ginta and Hakkaku- Huh?
Hakkaku- Uh, Kouga? I could be out of line for saying this�
Ginta- If he�s in danger and Kagome�s with him, doesn�t that put her in danger as well?
Kouga- Ahh! Why didn�t you tell me that earlier, you clowns?
Ginta and Hakkaku- Why didn�t you notice it first?
InuYasha- Uhh! [grunting] Gotcha!
Kagome- Good one!
Shippou- He cut the demon�s arm off!
InuYasha- (What the hell? Why didn�t I feel his arm sever? It�s almost like it separated from Juromaru.) Huh? Y�Aah! Uhh!
Juromaru- [exhales]
Tachi (sans Sango)- Huh?
Shippou- His arm�s still on?
InuYasha- Huh? (I knew it. That wasn�t his arm I hacked off.) [groans in pain]
Miroku- Look! From the ground!
Kagome- InuYasha!
InuYasha- [still groaning in pain]
Miroku- What the hell is that thing?
Kageromaru- [licking lips] Thanks for the meal. Your innards were simply delicious.
InuYasha- Damn it! So there were two of you all along. [grunts] Who the hell are you?
Kageromaru- [wicked laughter] I am Kageromaru and I have been lying dormant inside Juromaru belly.
Kagome- What do you think that�s supposed to mean? Oh no! Don�t tell me that�
Miroku- That bit seems to be the only thing that was keeping it inside!
Kageromaru- [laughs] Juromaru obeys no one but me. Not even Naraku.
Sango- W-what?
Kageromaru- Now let us feast on the others, shall we, Juromaru? We�ll gorge ourselves!
Miroku- Wind tunnel!
Kageromaru- [laughs]
Miroku- Uhh! What the?
Juromaru- [exhale]
Sango- Miroku!
Juromaru- [exhale]
Sango- Hiraikotsu! Uhh! Uhh.
Miroku- Sango!
Sango- Uhh!
Miroku- Uhh!
Kageromaru- [laughs]
Miroku- Wind Tunnel!
Kageromaru- [laughs] What are you hoping to eliminate?
Miroku- Over there!
Kageromaru- Too late.
Miroku- Huh?
Kageromaru- Do you honestly hope to defeat us with such sluggish speed?
Miroku- Aah!
InuYasha- Uhh. Miroku! [grunting] Ahh! Miroku, you alright?
Miroku- [breathing] Yeah. Your sword scared me more that anything.
InuYasha- Then pull up the covers and don�t watch this part. He�s mine this time.
Kagome- No! Don�t do it InuYasha!
Shippou- You�ve get a hole in your gut for starter!
InuYasha- So what! It�s not like I�ve never been wounded� huh?
Kagome- [breathing heavily]
Kageromaru- (This girls life belongs to me now.)
InuYasha- Kagome!
~~ Commercial ~~
InuYasha- Kagome!
Kouga- Uhh! Damn!
InuYasha- Huh?
Kouga- Kagome, are you all right?
Kagome- Where�d you come from?
Kouga- What do you think you�re pullin� here, Dog-Face? How dare you put my Kagome in danger!
InuYasha- Who are you to talk, running off with your tail between your legs? I will thank you for saving, Kagome though, ya mangy wolf.
Kagome- Are they saying I was in some kind of danger?
Shippou- Seems like.
Kouga- So what�s the story behind this strange-looking demon?
InuYasha- He came out of Juromaru�s gut, or so he claims.
Kouga- (Figures. No wonder I was sensing a chill from Juromaru. It was him.)
Miroku- I can see that Kageromaru is much to fast for even the likes of us to keep up with him.
Kouga- Heh. Why don�t you speak for yourself, monk. There�s no one who�s capable of escaping from me.
Kageromaru- [wicked laughter] Words are your only true weapon.
Kouga- I�ll call ya on that one, after I twist your head off.
Kageromaru- [wicked laughter] You�re not half the warrior you claim to be. Is that truly the best you can offer?
Kouga- Pfft. Huh?
InuYasha- Juromaru, I�m your only real opponent here!
Kouga- Uhh!
InuYasha- Uhh! [grunting]
Kagome- InuYasha!
Kouga- Huh! Shame on you, Mutt-Face. That lame excuse for a demon should be easy prey.
InuYasha- What? Uhh! Get off me. Who are you to criticize. I don�t see Kageromaru laying face down.
Kouga- Ha. Don�t compare yourself to me. Huh? Huh. I�m starting to get the hang og this. Yaaa! [growling] I�ve got ya. Huh!
Shippou- He�s predicting Kageromaru�s moves.
Kagome- That�s unreal.
Kageromaru- [growls]
Kouga- Huh! Uhh! You�re dead! Uhh!
Sango- Got him!
Kouga- Huh?
InuYasha- Uhh!
Kouga- Huh? He�s gone. He�s got away on me. Huh?
InuYasha- Huh? He came out of the ground!
InuYasha- Uhh! [grunting] Aah!
Shippou- Uhh.
Kagome- InuYasha!
Kouga- He got away on me again! [grunts]
Sango- Huh?
Miroku- No.
Sango- Um.
Miroku- There�s no way he�ll ever win with an injured leg.
Sango- And InuYasha�s still unconscious.
Kageromaru- [laughter] Perhaps I shall eat your liver next, little girl.
Shippou- [screams]
InuYasha- What?
Kouga- Kageromaru! Don�t lay a hand on her!
Kageromaru- I�ll eat her bones and all!
Kagome- Ohh!
Kouga- No, you wont!
Juromaru- Uhh!
Kouga- Huh?
Kageromaru- Too late.
Kagome and Shippou- [screaming]
InuYasha- Uhh.
Kagome- InuYasha!
InuYasha- Now, die!
Sango- What just happened? Did the sword just become lighter? He wielded Tetsusaiga with one hand.
Miroku- He�s so simple-minded that when he got angry, he forgot how heavy the sword was.
InuYasha- [breathing heavily] Simple-Minded, huh?
Miroku- He heard that?
InuYasha- Is he underground?
Kagome- InuYasha! [panting]
InuYasha- Kagome, are you all right?
Kagome- I am, but you�re seriously hurt.
Kouga- Uhh! So Dog-Breath is still alive, is he?
Shippou- Kouga�s leg has been badly injured.
InuYasha- Hmph. Like he�d be of any use to me. Stand back and watch the master. I�ll take Juromaru out by myself� [crash]
Sango- Did Tetsusaiga get heavy again?
Miroku- It was his desire to protect Kagome that made the sword seem lighter.
InuYasha- Uhh.
Kouga- Coward. Lost your nerve huh?
InuYasha- [grunting] Spare me. I�ll finish you off while I�m at it. Yah!
Kouga- Uhh.
InuYasha- You�re a dead man. Uhh!
Kageromaru- Yaa!
InuYasha- Uhh!
Kouga- Yaa!
InuYasha- Don�t expect a �thanks.�
Kouga- You�re such an ingrate. Hya.
InuYasha- Uhh. Uhh�
Sango- I the battle goes much longer, not even InuYasha will be able to hold out.
Miroku- And there�s no way of knowing where Kageromaru will emerge from next.
Sango- Wait. InuYasha will have a chance if we can restrain Kageromaru. Miroku, give me your staff please.
Miroku- Why? What do you have planned?
Sango- Watch. This poison won�t last very long, but at least it�ll get Kageromaru out of the ground. Uhh!
Kagome- The Earth�s starting to turn red.
Kouga- Hmm?
Kageromaru-Yaa!
Miroku- It worked.
Sango- Now capture Kageromaru! He�s going to be slowed down by the poison!
Kageromaru- Uhh. Damn you.
Kouga- Uhh!
InuYasha- You�re mine now. [grunting]
InuYasha and Kouga- Ohh! [grunting]
Kouga- Uhh! That was just great, Dog-Boy. You gonna die this time around?
Kagome- InuYasha! Don�t move around.
Kouga- Don�t worry Kagome. I can handle both demon�s on my own.
InuYasha- [growls]
Kouga- Now that Kageromaru can�t do his little underground trick, I�ll take him out. But you�re going down first.
InuYasha- (Why can�t I sense Kageromaru? Is he hiding in the shadows somewhere?) [gasps] I know where he is.
Juromaru- [exhales]
InuYasha- Fool! Stay away from him, Kouga.
Kouga- Take your own advice why don�tcha?
InuYasha- [grunting]
Kagome- Don�t go. You�re too weak.
InuYasha- Out of the way.
Juromaru- [exhales]
InuYasha- Move it or you�re going down with those demons.
Kageromaru- See you in hell! What? Your fate is sealed now!
InuYasha- We�ll see about that! Uhh!
Kageromaru- Huh. [screaming]
InuYasha- [growling slightly]
Kagome- Oh!
Shippou- Nothing but ashes.
Miroku- He did it.
InuYasha- It�s over, despite someone getting in my way. Uhh.
Kouga- You fiend! We�re you actually going to kill me too?
InuYasha- [sheaths Tetsusaiga]
Kouga- That�s a good enough answer for me.
InuYasha- There you go.
Kouga- I�m gonna waste you.
Kagome- Knock it off you guys.
Kouga- Nothings sacred to you when you�re swinging that thing around, is it Dog-Boy?
Kagome- He knows how fast you are, so he was sure you�d get out of the way in time. Right, InuYasha?
InuYasha- Why should I explain myself to that mangy wolf? Listen, if you ever get in my way again, next time, I really will kill you?
Kouga- I�d like to see you try it, you lame excuse for a half-dog.
InuYasha- Pardon?
Kagome- InuYasha, sit.
InuYasha- Uhh! [crashes]
Kagome- Kouga, maybe you better leave us for now.
InuYasha- Would you stop doing that?
Kagome- You�ve got some serious injuries. Do you have any idea what�ll happen if you keep fighting like this? Hey, Kouga, thanks for all your help today. You know, we really couldn�t have done it without you.
Miroku- Ok. Now he�s definitely not gonna wanna leave.
Kouga- Kagome. You�re my woman now. Man, I hate leaving your safety in the hands of that incompetent Dog-Face.
Kagome- [sighs]
InuYasha- (That creep. He�ll pay for this.)
Kouga- I will always come to your rescue when you�re in danger. Farewell.
Miroku- Huh?
Sango- He left her.
InuYasha- Get back here, you coward!
Kagome- Sit, boy!
InuYasha- Uhh! You let Kouga get away again.
Kagome- [sighs] You�re just too banged up, I tell ya.
InuYasha- Do you honestly think that mangy wolf could defeat me?
Kagome- Hmm.
InuYasha- [sighs]
Kagome- Now turn over, and let me dress your wounds.
InuYasha- I�ll pass. Anyway, what do you think your doing flattering him with all that sweet talk, and even flirtin� with him? Don�t deny it, I heard ya. You�re so disgusting. I couldn�t even bear to watch. I thought you were above all� huh?
Kagome- [whimpering]
InuYasha- What are you looking at me like that for?
Kagome- I�m going home.
InuYasha- Huh?
Kagome- Home to my era.
InuYasha- Go ahead. I�m not stoppin� ya.
Miroku- Ugh. Shall we, Sango? This is going down hill fast.
Sango- Yeah. I�d rather be dressing your wounds, for one.
Kagome and InuYasha- Huh?
Shippou- You two should grow up and be like them.
Kagome- Huh?
Kagome and InuYasha- Hmph.
