The Fight With Sesshomaru

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

When we last left our heroes, the boys had just recovered from a really bad case of the love bug, thanks to Shoga, who was trying to trick Myoga into falling in love with her by mixing a love potion in with their soup! However, some good did come out of this crazy turn of events. Inuyasha ended up revealing his true feelings for Kagome and the two are planning on getting married. In that time since, Miroku and Sango are finally together... but Sango still insists that they CANNOT have twenty children. (She got Miroku to agree on only five.) And as for Shippo and Kilala, they are still not on speaking terms. Kilala won't let Shippo anywhere near her, for fear that she will get chased down a hollow log... again! But, for the most part, everything is back to normal.

But there was one thing that the group did not count on... Shoga had brown bagged some of her soup. And she's going to try again with Myoga!

That evening, the group was camped out in front of a warm fire. They were all eating grilled cheese sandwhiches for dinner. Shoga was heating up the leftover soup over the fire. She turned to the group. "I've said it before and I'll say it again: DO NOT TOUCH THIS SOUP!"

"Oh, don't worry! We won't!" Inuyasha exclaimed. "I'm still ovewhelmed from the last time!"

Kagome chuckled. She knew he was happy, deep down inside. After all, they almost had to thank Shoga for her crazy concoctions. Otherwise, they never would have known how they really felt about one another. She took another bite of her sandwhich. "Yum! These are great sandwhiches Sango!"

"Thanks... I'm practicing my cooking skills for when I have my five children."

Miroku moaned. "Please Sango! There's nothing wrong with at least fifteen babies?"

She shook her head. "Nope! If there's one thing I really don't need, it's a whole school of kids! We're having only five!"

Shippo looked over at Kilala, who was giving him the evil eye. "Kilala, I'm sorry, okay? It was the love potion, not me!" He chuckled. "Actually, when you think about it, you're not even my type." The only responce he got to that last remark was gatting a scratch on his face. Everyone laughed. "What did you do that for!?" Shippo shouted. "I thought you'd be happy about it!"

Kagome's laughter was cut short when she heard the sound of foot steps coming their way. She looked around, so did everyone else. Finally, they heard a high pitched voice exclaim, "There they are, master!"

Jakin... Sesshomaru's little tag-along. This couldn't be good. Shoga was quick to place the cover back over the soup. "Oh, no you don't!" she told herself in a whisper. "If there's going to be a fight, I'll not have my soup get spilled all over the place!"

They all stood up and made ready to fight. Sesshomaru came striding up to them, stopping at only a few yards away. His long silver hair was flowing in the wind. "Inuyasha," he said in his deep, arristocratic voice. " it is time."

"Time for what, old man?" Inuyasha drew his Tetseiga.

Sesshomaru drew his Tokijin. "Time for you to return that sword of yours to it's rightful owner!"

Inuyasha just chuckled. "Forget it... WIND SCAR!" The mighty blast shot out from the sword with one swoop. Of course, Sesshomaru jumped up in the air, dodging the attack. He landed next to the campfire, catching everyone off guard. Sesshomaru had no real expression on his face, just his usual can-we-get-this-over-with look. He raised his hand in the air, extending his index and middle figer together. A whip of light formed in between his fingers and he whiped it around, putting the fire out and knocked all of their camp suppies everywhere. The container of Shoga's soup flew up in the air. Sesshomaru reached out, caught the container in one hand and stuffed it in his pocket.

"HEY!" Shoga exclaimed. "THAT'S MINE!"

"You win for now, Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru declared. "But I will return for my sword!" With that, he turned and began to walk away, dissapearing into the night.

Everyone was left bewildered. "Huh? That doesn't seem like him. He didn't even put up that much of a fight," Kagome pointed out.

Inuyasha just shrugged as he put Tetseiga away. "Well, maybe he's beginning to realize which one of us is the strongest!

o O o

"Master Sesshomaru," Jakin asked. " may I ask you a question?"

"Go ahead."

"Why is it that you did not really put up that much of a fight for the Testeiga?"

"Because the Tetseiga was not my goal, for once."

Jakin's mouth dropped open. "What!?... Then, why in the world--"

At that moment, Rin came running up to them. "You're back, Sesshomaru! I was worried."

Sesshomaru reached into his pocket and took out Shoga's soup. "As promised, I've brought your dinner, Rin."

Jakin almost fell to the ground with a big sweat drop on his face.

Sesshomaru opened up the container and sniffed it. "Hmm... Not bad." He handed the container to Rin, who was beaming with smiles.

"Sesshomaru, do you want to eat some, too?"

His eyebrow rose. "Are you sure there's enough?"

"Of course! Jakin, would you like some?"

"NO WAY!" Jakin marched away from them. "I am not interesting in anything Inuyasha eats!"

Rin just shrugged. "More for me and Seshsomaru then!" She reached into her pocket and took out two spoons. "Let's eat!"
