Kagome Higurashi sighed in contentment as she walked into her three bedroom apartment with her older brother Souta, shaking snow off of her clothes as she came in. He had come home to visit from abroad just to visit her, and had even taken her on a shopping trip! What a phenomenal day! He had picked her up from her modeling job early. She was a Cover Girl, and modeled for Gucci and Chanel from time to time. She was quite the entrepreneur in the modeling business, and dated a well to do designer, Hojo Katawa, to boot. Setting down her packages on the leopard spotted couch, she began to giggle as she watched watched her brother walk through her apartment, checking all her doors and windows. Taking off her knee high leather boots, she sat them down beside the gas logs to dry, along with her lavendar wool scarf. Walking into her kitchen, it's sandstone tile floors and marble counter tops shining, she popped her head over the bar to look down the hall in the direction he had gone.
"What are you doing Souta? I doubt the boogie man came to visit while we were gone."
"Well you never know Kagome, I just want you to be safe you know." he called back.
Rolling her eyes in an exasperated fashion, she pulled out two mugs with snowmen on them from above her head in a rack.
"I know that Souta. You know, I AM twenty-three years old! Now will you come on? I bought some of your favorite hot chocolate at the store, why don't we sit in the kitchen and have a cup for good old times sakes? I hardly ever get to see you any more, and when I do, you're so uptight! Relax bro, let's have some fun!"
"Okay, Kagome."
He smiled as she quickly pulled back her long raven black hair with a srunchie, her pretty blue eyes shining as she began to rumage under the counters for a mixing spoon. Her slender little form made her the perfect candidate for the business she had chosen, she was perfectly proporioned, hips, bust, and all. Souta was very protective of his little sister....and he had good reason to be...if HE ever found out about her.....Souta couldn't bear to think of what would happen to his little sister, the only family he had left in the world since their mother and grandfather had died in that car "accident". He would never forgive HIM for that one.... His thoughts were interupted; however, by the rattling of an old and battered box. Looking up, he smiled as his younger sister held up a battered copy of Milton Bradley's Scrabble, the game they had played at as children.
"So how bout it bro? You up for the challenge?"
Laughing he banished all dark thoughts of....him.....from his mind, and ran over to the large mahogany table like a kid, opening the taped up box as his sister swung the door to the microwave open, and provided the promised hot chocolate...and indeed, it was his favorite kind....Smores!
"Heck yeah Kagome! There's no way you're beating this genius!" he yelled out loud, ecstatic at the thought of his favorite sweet, chocolate. Giggling, Kagome lifted a bag of large marshmallows from underneath her chair and placed them on the table. Souta literally stuck his head in the bag as he reached for marshmallows to put into his hot chocolate.
The two laughed as the cold winter's day grew old, playing Scrabble long into the night. Kagome managed to beat him soundly with the word 'quickly' on the triple word score, with double letter scores underneath. Squealing like the children they used to be, they kicked each other under the table, and soon began to throw marshmallows that Kagome had sitting on the table at each other.
"TAKE THAT SOUTA! AND THAT!" Kagome yelped as she turned her kitchen table over, a bag of Food Lion brand marshmallows with her, along with a bunch of scrabble letters. Rapidly, she began to stuff the letters inside the marshmallows, throwing one at her brother. He caught it in his mouth, and laughing even harder, bit down, only to find a wooden letter inside. Gagging he collapsed on the floor, flopping around like a fish, while his sister howled with laughter from where she hid behind the table. Still throwing marshmallows, Souta began to make an ellaborate speach about his death by a marshmallow and wooden letter.
"OH! You got me! I....I can see the light.....MY TEETH! OH MY JAW! Ah! ROOT CANAL! You're PAYING FOR THIS ONE! I think you cracked my tooth! Damn! Who knew those fricking little pieces could hurt so much!" Yelping, he began to spasm about on the floor, flipping onto his stomach and doing the worm, Kagome in the background with tears streaming down her cheeks from trying not to crack a rib laughing. His dark hair had a gooey marshmallow stuck in it, and his brown eyes were tearing like hers as he continued his deluge. "Oh! SAVE ME!" he began to flop about like a fish out of water, gradually getting closer to the pantry. Immediately Kagome saw what he was doing, and rumaged in a cabinet behind her to pull out her favorite trusty snack, Twizlers.
Leaping up, he once again began to throw marshmallows, soon followed by black eyed peas and a gigantic stuffed teddy bear he had won for Kagome at the arcade that afternoon. (The black eyed peas of course were procured from the nearby pantry.) Kagome made a small sling shot out of a Twizlers Pull and Peel, and began to fling Starburst jellybeans at her brother.
"GOD KAGOME!" he yelled.
She stared at him, shocked from his outburst as he gazed upon her pantry with reverence akin to adoration.
"I thought you were a model! Models aren't supposed to eat this kind of stuff! MAN! All they eat is green beans for lunch, and a pea for dinner! How the heck can you get away with eating Rice Krispies and Cinnamon Toast Crunch?!"
"Fast metabolism?"
"You must have a personal trainer!"
"Are you saying I'm fat?!"
"No, I'm just wondering how you stay the way you are."
"So you're saying I'm fat."
"NO! Kagome, nooooo!"
Neighbors in nearby surrounding apartments rolled their eyes as the two nocturnal elephants went at it again, Kagome beginning to beat her brother with a large Chiquita banana. She squealed in surprise as the banana broke, her brother collapsing with laughter from the odd circumstances. Ignoring him, she grabbed a large squashed and melted Zero bar, and began to ooze it out of one end, pinning him beneath her as she smeared it on him. He began to tickle her, and with a yelp of surprise she leapt in the air and over the table faster than you could say 'scat.'
Souta laughed until his sides felt they were about to burst, and crawled around the back side of the table, sneaking up on Kagome as she peeped out over the top looking for her target. With a yell he tackled her, and the two of them wrestled their way into the living room, ending up lying on the floor at opposite ends of the room, crying from pains in their sides, loud hiccups coming out between the giggles that insued.
Souta smiled at her, so beautiful and serene, without a care in the world. He had never told her what he did for a living, nor was he planning too, it was too dangerous. And yet, although he would probably die tommorow, he loved the fact that he got to be with his sister one last time. A dangerous mission had come up, too dangerous, and he had been assigned the project, but only because of the fact that he knew the enemy they were facing best. After all, Inuyasha had only been his rival for as long as he had been on the force....the two of them had had more run ins than anyone could count, Inuyasha always coming out on the winning end.
After the giggles had subsided, the two popped in the movie Kagome had rented, 'Lilo and Stitch' and settled into her extra large brown leather chair. Smiling, he stroked her hair as she snuggled up against him like she used too, underneath a large spotted safari blanket that matched her couch. She dozed off half way through the movie, a small happy smile on her face, her dreams of her childhood, of her momma, and papa, of jii-san and Souta.....
If Inuyasha were to ever find out about the hidden life behind Souta's facade, about...Kagome. Souta would never forgive himself.
================
Unbeknownst to Souta, a pair of golden eyes watched the scene carefully, examining every escape point from the room. So Souta Higurashi, his long time enemy, had a female aquaintance, or rather more than that, so it seemed. And boy was she a looker to boot! Chuckling under his breath his bared primeval fangs and growled at the man who had caused this to happen to him, this abnormality that ostracised him from the outside world. Souta Higurashi would pay.....oh yes....he would pay.......
