So read and review please!

Author's note:

I finally uploaded the first chapter. This is my first story, so I hope it would be good. And here, I would like to thank Cristael and maroonite for their encouragement (especially the bucket of goo with cockroaches in it). So, here goes...

Chapter 1

"Nani?" the tajiya was astounded by the little information that she had received from the miko, who was sitting beside her in the hot springs. A while ago, they had tied a perverted houshi to a tree, so that they could have a peaceful time bathing.

"It's true! You must believe me!"

"Oh my god!"

The new discovery that she had made was indeed outrageous and would even take a particular hanyou's breath away. That is if he found out about it, of course… Nobody would ever expect something like that to ever happen…

"Shouldn't we tell the rest about this?" asked Sango. Surely, the guys have the right to know about this, and Inuyasha actually has the most privilege of all, surprisingly. Well, he is his half-brother after all, whether Sesshoumaru likes it or not…

"We should, but Shippo-chan should not know of this…"

"I agree."

Even though Shippo is indeed 50+ years old, he is still a kid. And kids are not allowed hear of such things, especially something as ridiculous as this one. After Sango and Kagome had finished bathing, they start walking towards the campsite, where the rest of the guys are. Miroku was still tied to the tree, looking particularly glum.

'And I even cared enough about him to let him be tied to the tree, sitting on the ground. I should have tied him to the tree, standing! Who cares whether he is comfortable or not!' Sango thought.

On one of the topmost branches of the tree Miroku was tied to, Inuyasha was resting. Shippo was just wandering about the plains nearby the area, probably looking for some acorns or something nice to play with.

'What a great opportunity!' Kagome and Sango's thoughts were in sync.

Miroku had noticed that the girls were coming. Inuyasha must have already heard them coming long before they came into sight. He is a hanyou after all. From where Miroku was sitting, he could say that there is an ominous cloud over their heads. The chilling looks on the girls' face told him that something bad was bound to happen, but what, he doesn't know. Tilting up his chin, he spoke to a highly innocent hanyou.

"Hey, Inuyasha! Don't you think that the girls are acting a little weird today?"

"Eh?"

Kagome and Sango would not be able to hear what Miroku has said even if they were just five feet away from him, since he was speaking so softly. He knew that Inuyasha would be able to hear it though, and very clearly too… Inuyasha has those cute, fluffy and sensitive ears, which enabled him to pick up Miroku's voice, or maybe even a rabbit running half a mile away. Inuyasha took a glance at the girls who were currently walking towards camp. However, his brain is probably not as sensitive as his ears are. Nothing gave him a warning signal about impending danger or anything.

"I don't see anything weird about them," he concluded.

Miroku gave a short and defeated sigh. He knew he had asked the wrong person. Inuyasha was just as clueless as before. He just can't seem to detect such things that even a child like Shippo was able to. The two girls walked up to the campsite and immediately called for a conference.

"I have something important to tell you guys, and we must make it quick. And whatever I tell you, you guys must make sure that Shippo-chan will not get to know of it, understand? Get down from the tree, Inuyasha! Before I sit… Oops!" said Kagome.

Inuyasha had created an Inuyasha-shaped crater in the ground.

"Hey What did you do that for?" grumbled Inuyasha.

"I'm sorry, it just slipped…" Kagome said, while trying to look as apologetic as possibly, but failed miserably. "Just gather around, okay. It's important!"

"It'd better be," mumbled Inuyasha.

He moved in to form a circle with the other three people, while sitting down. They put their arms behind each other's back and squeezed with one another, like the way Kagome's friends in school share a secret or plan with one another. Miroku, however, was not able to do anything but listen. A few whispers was heard and…

"Nani?" Inuyasha had jumped up from the place where he was sitting and all his face showed was astonishment.

"This is a joke, right?" asked the houshi, not really sure whether to believe it or not.

"It isn't a joke!" the miko from the future tried to convince them.

"Kagome-chan wouldn't lie to us," said Sango.

"But, I just can't believe it…" said Inuyasha, almost whispering. The expression on his face was undeniably hilarious. It was as though he had not gone to the washroom for seventy days already. He wasn't even sure whether he was going to break into tears or laugh his lungs out.

"Say, shouldn't we celebrate? You know, a party? It is his birthday after all…" said Kagome.

"Keh! As if somebody like Sesshoumaru would want to celebrate his birthday with a bunch of humans. And who in the world would want to celebrate Sesshoumaru's birthday anyway?"

"Hey, I've an idea!"

They were in a circle again, and excited whispers were exchanged. When they let go of one another once more, each face was graced with a grin so evil that they almost look murderous. However, the grin left Inuyasha's face and was replaced with a frown.

"But how do you know that he'll…"

"If it's Rin, he will!" Kagome had cut him off before he could finish what he wanted to say.

"So, will you help, Inuyasha?" asked Miroku.

The evil grin graced the hanyou's face once more.

"Since you guys need my help so desperately…"

Then, the group of four chuckled. These horrible and eerie chuckles would stay in Shippo's mind forever. Shippo was peeping from a distant tree and could not hear the slightest sound of their little discussion since they were whispering, and especially since he was hiding in a place so far. However, he knew something was up, and trouble is brewing. But what, he knew not. Even so, he was sure that he would find out soon enough.

"But guys, don't you think we should get me untied first?" asked Miroku.

Yay! Is it good? Please do review! I really hope to have at least a dozen... But I'm not going to force anybody too. It really ticks me off if there are statements like "I'm not going to update till I get '...' reviews." But anyway, I still hope you would review. If you have no comments, then that's alright. I just want to let you know that you rock!

Meanwhile, I will be writing the next chapter... And remember, I'm evil.So, if you're not prepared for this evilness, please do not keep reading. You are warned. Read at your own risk. Muahahaha... Of course, reading on would be fun. Just don't take it too personally, okay? You rock!
