So this is a random idea for a fic I had. It's going to be a few chapters long, so be on the look out for it, But it's just this random idea that popped into my head. Have fun :)

"thoughts"

"Talking"

---------------------

Chapter One

----------------------

"InuYasha."

"..."

"InuYasha!"

"..."

"INUYASHA!"

"..."

Kagome stared at the irritating hanyou.

"Are you going to answer me or not?!"

"..."

"Fine then. Sit!"

She stomped away, leaving the hanyou eating dirt, laying face first on the ground.

"Why, for Kami's sake, must he be so annoying! He hasn't been talking all day!"

---------------------------------------------------------

The forest where they were camping had been quiet, earlier that day. Of course, that was well before the screaming girl, the silent hanyou, the monk and demon slayer, and the child kitsune had arrived. Now the forest was filled with noise and the small forest animals had long fled, along with some weaker youkai that didn't want to stick around to find out what was making the noise.

At the camp, the screaming was seen to be directed at the hanyou.

"INUYASHA! Just talk to me, for Kami's sake! Insult me, say anything! Just talk!"

"..."

"InuYasha, can you please say something just to get her to be quiet for a few minutes?" Miroku asked. "It's not like it will kill you. Though, she may for you having been silent so long."

"..."

"That's it! That is it! You are driving me insane, InuYasha!"

Kagome was in full out anger mode, raging loudly at the still silent hanyou, who was now looking at her with a smirk on his face. He yawned and jumped up to a branch in a tree overhead.

"InuYasha! Get down and talk to me or no ramen!"

His ears drooped a little at this, but the silence was held. This served to push Kagome farther over the edge.

"SIT!"

The hanyou crashed down out of the tree, landing face first on the ground, leaving a small crater where he had hit. Normally by now, there'd be cursing...She waited, knowing there would be cursing.

"..."

There was no cursing.

"..."

Kagome turned and marched over to her backpack. pulling out her sleeping bag, she moved to the farthest edge of camp, curled up in the sleeping bag and sulked.

----------------------------

He grinned silently to himself. He had found the perfect tactic to annoy her.

"Hehe. Just keep this up, she'll go crazy in no time! This is your best plan yet!"

A smirk twitched at the corner of his mouth as he leaped back up into the tree, free of the suduing spell for the moment. Leaning back against the trunk, he looked down at the girl who he was currently trying to drive to insanity with his ploy.

"This is priceless. She's so annoyed, and I'm not even really doing anything!"

He fell asleep with a smile on his face.

------------------------------------------------

Kagome curled up tighter in her sleeping bag as she thought about the day.

"He's so annoying!"

A scowl crossed her face as her thoughts continued.

"This is deliberate, I know it is. But how to get back at him?"

'Kagome." Sango had edged away from the fire and come and sat down near her.

"Yes Sango?'

"Try not to kill him. I know you're planning something, but don't include anything life threatening, okay? He's the strongest of us...and we can't beat Naraku without him. You know that."

"Yeah, I know. I'll try not to."

"Goodnight, Kagome."

"Night..." she yawned "Sango..."

Sango returned to her spot near the fire as Kagome continued plotting. By the time she fell asleep, she had a plan...several in fact.
