Bathe

They had now been in the South for a month and Kagome groaned as they continued on. All of the girls had been in a foul mood the whole week and the guys had an idea as to why it was but wanted to be sure. Kouga glared at Miroku he was not stupid enough to ask four very annoyed looking females what was wrong so like any male that had self-preservation in mind he pushed Miroku forward to ask.

With a worried glance in Kouga’s direction Miroku cleared his throat, “Excuse me ladies but I was wondering what was bothering you?”

Sango answered in a snarl, “It is hot and we are all dirty! It has been a week since we last camped near a hot spring!”

Kagome screamed, “I hate being dirty and grimy!”

Kagura just glared at thin air.

Kikyo was the only one that answered calmly however you could still hear the bite in her voice, “We all need to bathe none of us have ever gone longer than one day without bathing. Considering the heat and all is making it much worse than what it normally would be.”

Now understanding the situation and what needed to be done to solve it the males looked at each other.

Kouga nodded his head in understanding, “I will scout ahead for a place to make camp and I will make sure there is a hot spring nearby.”

The girls all sighed in relief at Kouga’s announcement. It was not long before Kouga returned to them.

He stopped before them and spoke, “I have found a suitable place to camp and I believe I have a nice surprise set up for the ladies and children. Camp has already been set up and dinner is already cooking over the fire.”

Kagura immediately transformed her feather and everyone climbed on to follow Kouga.
