"Fate" of Shippo? (spoilers)

[Shamu]

So, anyone else wonder what happened to the main story line in the latest manga chapter? It was a cute chapter and I'm glad it was a lighter one at that, but I was kinda like, isn't Inuyasha (or anyone else for that matter) going to say anything to Kagome about her asking Kouga to join their gang? Or the fact that she keeps asking EVERYONE to join them? Oh well. And Shippo seems to be in more danger from Inuyasha than from this new girl, Mujina . Guess we'll just have to wait until this weeks chapter to find out the "fate" of Shippo and the main plot! Oh yeah, I thought Shippo's serpent toy biting Inuyasha's head was hysterical!

[Kuro]

Actually, the only fate I see for him now is that he's going to get a good pounding by Inuyasha when it's all over....

[A guest]

Nice sword you've got there Mujina. Are you connected to Kajinbo or the baby?

Who cares? Everyone's waiting for the inevitable Shippo smash.

[Shamu]

Oh yeah, when I said the "fate" of Shippo, I meant that if Inuyasha didn't get him with that Kaze no Kizu to Mujina's den in chapter 383, then he would with something else! Now, thanks to Shippo's "great cuase" I don't know if even Kagome will be able to save him from Inuyasha for this one ! But I'm taking bets as to whether or not she asks Mujina to join the group when this whole mess is (hopefully) figured out ! As for Mujina being connected to the baby or kaijinbo, I'm guessing that her father's death was somehow linked to Naraku...if indeed her father was killed by a great youkai and that wasn't just some sob story to get Shippo in cahoots with her (which wouldn't suprise me). Either way, I'm guessing she's got a link to Naraku somehow.

[Chizuru]

You know, she never actually said that her father died. Or that she was trying to avange his death.... Shippou just assumed. Poor Shippou.

But wow, everybody was wrong. That was quite a weird turn of events aye?

[Kuro]

Didn't she? I don't have the chapter in front of me, but I do remember it:

SHIPPOU: What happened to your father?
MUJINA: Why... are you asking about my father?
SHIPPOU: I could smell his scent in the den.
MUJINA: My father... is dead. He was killed by an evil youkai.

*goes back to check*

Shippou was the one who suggested that she was avenging his death, but she lied to him about that, after all. When Shippou asked if she was doing it for vengeance, she told him she was.
