Chapter: decision

They had been sitting around the fire for a while and Miroku was getting impatient. He had already tried to get into conversation with Linn all evening, but Inuyasha had thwarted his plans every time. Given that Inuyasha had only learned the duties of an older brother a few hours ago, his protective instincts towards his little sister were already very strong. He guarded her with eagle eyes and each of Miroku's advances was punished with a threatening look. That way, the intimate togetherness would never turn out to be something ... While he was considering how he could best distract Inu Yasha, Sango suddenly spoke up: "I hate to disturb your conversation, but I think we should really leave soon. As long as that Naraku is still out there, we are not safe here. ”There was an uncomfortable silence. "You are right," Inuyasha said seriously. "We should hurry up so that bastard doesn't get away!"-" And I will accompany you! ", Linn shouted resolutely." No, you won't! ", Inuyasha replied gruffly. Linn looked at him questioningly." But why not? Don't you want me with you I could help you! "-" That's way too dangerous for a girl! "Inuyasha tried to justify himself." Oh yeah? ", asked Kagome and Sango as if from one mouth." This argument is more than questionable. And besides, I'm no ordinary girl. I am a half demon just like you and I can take good care of myself! ", Linn replied angrily." Listen, I don't want anything to happen to you. We just found each other and if something happened to you, I could never forgive myself. ", Inuyasha said seriously and grabbed Linn by the arm. But she tore herself free and hissed at him:" But can you send me away? You are a beautiful brother! Why did I spend months looking for you when you want to send me home right away? And if you stand on your head.I will accompany you! "-" She has the same stubborn head as Inuyasha ... ", Miroku whispered. Kagome nodded in agreement and then said:" Well, Inuyasha, I don't think you can change her mind and besides, I don't think it's a bad idea, that Linn comes with us. If she's half as strong as you, she could really be of great help to us. "Linn looked at her gratefully, but Inuyasha was less happy about this comment." Why are you all stabbing me in the back? "he shouted angrily." Give it up, Inuyasha! ", Shippo squeaked." Well wait, you little pest! ", Inuyasha hissed and started to jump. Shippo ran away screaming and Inu Yasha ran after him into the forest. Linn looked after the two of them questioningly." Does that mean I can go with you now? ", she asked Kagome helplessly." I think so. ", she replied." He's already cooling off again. He's just worried about you. "-" I know that, but I'm no longer a small child either.He can't tell me what to do. ", Linn said firmly." And besides, you still have me. ", Miroku interjected and put his arm around Linn's shoulder." I'll protect you, my darling! "-" Oh thank you, Mr. Monk. I immediately feel a lot safer! ", Linn laughed and Kagome giggled too. Only Sango didn't seem to be able to laugh at that ... Then the four started packing up their things. After all, they wanted to be ready when Inuyasha returned from his Shippo hunt for them could finally leave.
