Summary The old man want to go to the shrine to pray
The Adventures of Princess Puppy and Ouji

Inuyasha could not stop grumbling. The old man was too feeble to walk, but insisted that he had to properly thank the kami that they had sent the dog-earred fellow to rescue him.  When he protested, Kagome grabbed him by the ears and told him that he thank his lucky stars she did not sit him for that comment.

And so they trouped up to the shrine. Kaede to lead the prayers. Inuyahsa to carry the stranger. Kagome to steady Kaede and make sure that Inuyasha did not do anything stupid. She sent Ouji to Princess Puppy’s shrine earlier to stay out of the line of fire. That was one thing at least she did not have to worry about.

The old man complained all the way up the stairs with his bump he had to endure. Worse his pipe put out the most foul smelling smoke that Kagome ever smelled. Inuyasha could barely stay on his feel as he staggered up the hill. When they reached the shrine area, Inuyasha was glad to finally be relieved of his cargo.

The old man surveyed the shrine ground. Two kami. He could not see them, but he knew they were there. One was in a grave marker. The other was too well hidden. He had not had such a hard time in finding kami since his sister hid herself in her cave.

If the kami of this shrine would not show herself, he would have to smoke her out. Puffing away the smoke completely filled the shrine ground..The old man finally zeroed in on the other kami when he heard coughing.

He laughed “Yuuyakke. You might as well come out. I may not be able to break the seal on your cave, but my smoke will make you damn miserable.”.
