The Big List of Why

By:KitsuneArasi

Don't own it!

And before I get flamed, no I don't hate Inu Yasha! In fact, I like the guy.

Let's just say I couldn't help myself. -


It's a warm summer day in Japan. Birds are singing, children are playing, and Kagome Higurashi is up in her room, making a list to help her rationalize her growing feelings for a certain wolf prince.

The list is as follows:

Inu Yasha

Good Points

Occasionally sort of nice

Strong

Good-looking

Jumps really high

Bad Points

Cocky

Stubborn

Rude

Mean

Unfaithful

Possessive

Immature

Foolish

Violent

Short-tempered

Impatient

Overzealous

Annoying

Childish

Selfish

No manners (Chew with your mouth CLOSED!)

Giveaways:

Ears

Tendency to attack anything that moves.

'Oh I can just see it now: "Ahh! No! That's a POLICE OFFICER!" And then the orange jumpsuit. I'd just love to explain to the government how someone who doesn't exist managed to assault (and possibly maim) a police officer. But then…Kouga…'

Kouga

Good Points

Nice

Strong

Good-looking

Runs really fast

Caring

Sweet

Polite to anyone that deserves it.

Bad Points

Arrogant

Stubborn

Giveaways

Tail (Easily concealed)

Winner:

Kouga

'Thought so.'

A few days later…

As the prince of wolves came to his mate-to-be in her group's campsite he was pleasantly surprised when she swung her bag onto one shoulder, took the kitsune up in her arms, jumped into his and said determinedly, "Take me, I'm yours."

On the other hand, the spurned inu hanyou was scared shitless that he'd gone insane when, as the wolf prince began to walk off, ignoring his insults, Kagome responded not by screaming 'Sit boy!' but by kissing the wolf soundly and flipping the hanyou off over his shoulder.

Sango and Miroku grinned and clapped, happy for their friend and…

Kirara meowed and scratched at a flea.
