This story takes place BEFORE Shippou finds his way into Kagome and Inuyasha's camp.


Inuyasha's Sister

That just wasn't right. How dare Kagome pose the very thought? Kagome might think she knew everything, but really, who was Kagome anyway?

"Kagome, yo, what did you just say?" Inuyasha just had to verify it…to be sure.

Kagome looked up from the pot of ramen she was stirring. Mm, breakfast ramen. "Oh, I was just asking if you think your brother looks like a girl, that's all. It's been on my mind since we met him."

It was just the two of them. She did have to wonder if they would ever encounter anyone else. She didn't like Inuyasha all that much, considering he had tried to kill her and his brother did the same, but he did promise to protect her for all her life.

"My brother… looks like a girl?" Inuyasha choked on the idea. Really, the girl was a pest, bringing up stupid ideas like that. Sure, Sesshoumaru looked pretty feminine, but his chest was flat and he had a very low, fairly masculine voice.

He wasn't a girl.

"Duh! You don't have to repeat it like a moron." Kagome said snappishly. "And I was just wondering anyway! Thinking out loud."

"Well, maybe you shouldn't think, 'cause you don't know how!" Inuyasha yelled at her.

"You know what?" Kagome snatched up the tiny bag of jewel shards and kicked the pot of boiling ramen so it spilled into the fire. It didn't matter… he didn't like it that much anyway. "I'm going home." She walked off in (he assumed) the direction she thought the well was in. Too bad that was the wrong way.

"Good riddance! Stay there, if you ever get there! I'll get the jewel on my own and come after yours when I've got 'em all!" Inuyasha yelled at her back.

Meanwhile, Kagome had stormed off like an idiot. Sometime after walking for thirty minutes, she realized her feet hurt fairly bad due to walking over pine cones and other miscellaneous forest foliage on the hard wooded ground. She nearly tripped on a fallen tree which she miraculously had not seen.

After almost an hour, she realized she didn't take anything except the jewel shards. Of course, that was rather unhealthy for her as she found in moments that she had no idea where the heck she was and didn't the jewel shards attract demons?

Well, either way, her thoughts were still centered around Sesshoumaru for some reason. It did not seem as implausible to her that Sesshoumaru could actually be a 'she'. He seemed to be very tall and shared a beauty that rivaled the gods.

"Not to mention those beautiful golden eyes and long, incredibly feminine lashes!" Kagome giggled. "And his eyebrows? Perfect arches. I know girls who would kill for those eyebrows alone!" Kagome wasn't sure who she was talking to. Perhaps it was just to fill the silence. Perhaps it was to alleviate her stress over the fact that night was approaching and she was lost.

Who knew?

"And his figure seems more effeminate!" Kagome tripped on a rock and squeaked. "Ouch!" Said rock got in her shoe, meaning it wasn't much more than a pebble. She sat up to deal with it. "But he wore that bone armor and that—oh goodness," she stopped fiddling with her shoe for two seconds to think.

"That fluffy fur boa!" Kagome was sent into another fit of giggles. "Now if that isn't feminine, I don't know what is!" she finished with her shoe and stood again, brushing herself off, swinging the bag of shards haphazardly as she went along.

"And that hair!" Kagome almost squealed in delight at the very thought of herself having such long, beautiful hair. "How totally unfair!"

KERSPLASH!

If Kagome had been paying attention, she would have noticed the deep stream ahead. The cold water carried her downstream and dumped her over a short waterfall into a deep pool of water.

When she surfaced, she gasped for breath. Out of sheer habit, she screamed. After all, it was what a girl did when faced with an unknown danger of the sort that fell under the category of "evil stream carrying person downstream over a possibly dangerous waterfall into a perfectly heated hotspring".

She figured the warm geyser or whatever it was that heated the water must have been offset enough by the cool spring to create such a nice temperature.

Unfortunately, she had the unhappy privilege of courting possible death.

Standing up in the water closer to shore was Sesshoumaru, his back to her, up to his waist in water. He was looking at her with his head half turned. She tread water for a moment before realizing she had stopped screaming and immediately started up again.

"Inuyasha! Inuyashaaaa! Inu-ya-shaaaaaaa!"

In an instant, Sesshoumaru ducked down into the water and swam like a bullet toward her, gold eyes no longer a normal cold glare but rather more panicked than anything. She felt him grab her and cover her mouth. She nearly lost her water-treading balance at the same time.

"Stop it!" Sesshoumaru demanded in that deep voice.

She stopped. She didn't know why, but she did. Eventually her mind caught up with her eyes, and she saw his chest as he moved away from her, seemingly assured she would not scream anymore.

"Oh my god, you really are a girl!" Kagome breathed, her soaked bangs falling into her eyes.

"Do not call for Inuyasha. I will spare your life if he never finds out." Sesshoumaru stated.

Kagome blinked. Then she dipped her head under the water and resurfaced. For some reason, seeing the murderous Sesshoumaru with a bosom made him (her?) a lot less scary.

When she surfaced, she smoothed her hair back at the same time and returned to water-treading. Sesshoumaru was getting out. And he was most definitely a she. "Dear heavens, Inuyasha would never believe me anyway," Kagome muttered before deciding getting out was her best option as well.


ONLY TK HAS THE GUTS TO CHALLENGE THE MASSES OF WORLD-WIDE SESSHOUMARU FAN-DOM (to which she consequentially belongs). WAHAHA! (please do not attempt this at home as it may result in severe injury or death)
