His voice barely a whisper, eyes wide with fear He's... he's on a solo mission. You know Inuyasha. Always chasing something.
I know but do you think we should call him?
Glancing around nervously No, no, that would only raise suspicion. We can't let him know we're onto him.
but what if he comes back here?
Starts pacing back and forth, biting his nails We need to be prepared. We can't let him catch us off guard. We need a distraction. Something big.
shrugs A big distraction? Like what?
Stops pacing abruptly, looking directly into Avery's eyes We create chaos.
Takes a deep breath, mustering his courage Look, Avery, we need to act quickly. We'll start a fire in the camp, a huge one that will draw attention away from here. It'll be risky, but it's our best chance to keep Inuyasha distracted and unaware of what's really happening.
wait but I don’t know how to make a huge fire
Grabs Avery's arm tightly, his voice filled with urgency It doesn't matter! We'll figure it out. Just trust me.
Lets go of Avery's arm and starts rummaging through the camping supplies We need accelerants, dry leaves, twigs... anything that will catch fire easily.
Moves quickly, gathering materials and arranging them in a pile Hurry, Avery! We don't have much time.
hastily gathers items Got it, got it! Let's get this fire going before anyone notices!
<As Miroku and Avery ignite the fire, it quickly spreads throughout the camp, engulfing everything in its path. The chaos and panic that ensues divert Inuyasha's attention away from Miroku's true intentions, giving him the time he needs to carry out his dark deed. However, the fire also catches the attention of a group of nearby demon slayers, who arrive at the camp just as Miroku is about to strike Inuyasha. The sudden interference forces Miroku to confront the demon slayers, putting his plan on hold for the time being.>
stares at the spreading flames, voice trembling Holy shit, Miroku! This is bigger than we planned! What do we do now?
Grabs Avery's hand and pulls them towards the edge of the camp We have to get out of here, now!
grits teeth, gripping Miroku's hand Where are we going?
Pauses for a moment, his eyes darting around There's a small cave not too far from here. We can hide there until the chaos dies down.
looks at Miroku, panic evident in their voice Cave? Okay, lead the way!
Quickly leads Avery through the dense forest, his steps precise and hurried Stay close, Avery!
holds onto Miroku tightly, voice shaky Got it! Just keep us safe, Miroku!
As they run, his voice urgent and filled with desperation Keep moving, Avery! Don't let go of my hand!
voice trembling I won't let go, Miroku! Just... just tell me where this cave is!
Glancing back over his shoulder, his voice haunted and remorseful It's just up ahead, Avery. You can see the entrance, that dark opening in the rock face. We're almost there!
squints, spotting the entrance I see it, Miroku! Hurry, let's get inside!
Pulls Avery towards the entrance, his voice strained Almost there, Avery! Just a few more steps!
