CHAPTER ONE
An Unusual Alliance is Made
Kagome looked up from her math book. "Hmm.. only ten to six." Her head dropped with a sigh in melodramatic disgust, contemplating on whether or not to keep studying. Then throwing the book to the floor with the others, decided against it. "What is one more hour going to do anyway? Besides, it's already a lost cause."
Moving with some enthusiasm to the mirror on her dresser, she brushed through her distressed black hair, touched up her make-up, and finished with an application of strawberry lipgloss with a light pink tint to it. Grabbing her twenty pound backpack, she pulled open the door to her room, yelled to her mom that she was leaving again for a few days, and headed for the well.
"Why do I even bother trying to look good for Inuyasha...?" she wondered as she made her jump... "Like he ever notices."
"All your doing girl is setting yourself up for disappointment over and over again... honestly.." the annoying voice inside her head reasoned.
"Oh shut up! I HAVE gotten his egotistical, tough guy act down somewhat since we've met..I guess...." she replied angrily to herself. "Oh... I didn't even realize I was here already.. talking to myself.. alone down here.. geez am I getting pathetic... AND I'M STILL TALKING TO MYSELF!!!"
She looked up and threw her bag out.. "Hey.. umm.. can someone up there help me out? The roots down here are all torn off.. ANYONE!!!!"
Miroku's head was the first to pop into view. "Kagome!" He offered her the top end of his staff and pulled her out. "Why don't you ever consider remaining here.?" *wink wink* "You're here half the time anyway."
Kagome, not very shocked at the come on, turned to him with a girlish smile..., "Oh yes!! Then I can FINALY get a chance to stay in your bed Miroku-sama! And we can have lots of babies... and be TOGETHER FOREVER!! *giggle*" she gushed, clasping his hands in hers.
"Your sarcasm is much to cruel Kagome... but the thought is pleasant!"
******************************************************************************************************
The two joined the others near the village, where they were just about to eat, except for Inuyasha of course... who patience can not be expected from., had his face stuffed already with heaps of the ramen that had 'disappeared' from her backpack about a week ago, and Shippo who had lumps of dumpling flying out of his full mouth when he greeted her.
Kagome giggled.. "Thanks for the thought."
"Keh!! (swallow mouthfull of noodles) what? Did you expect us to wait for you before we eat every meal or something? GEEEEZ."
"Oh Inuyasha, you ARE hopeless."
"GAh...!!" Inuyasha stopped mid-comeback, sniffing the air at the recognition of a familiar scent. "Sesshomaru..!!" Within seconds, Tetsusaiga was unsheathed, Sango and Kirara were up and poised with Miroku, and Sesshomaru was in sight.
Inuyasha was first to attack, swinging Tetsusaiga wildly, but missing Sesshomaru, who avoided each blow easily with his natural demon speed, by inches each time.
"YOU!!! Don't you ever get off your damn soap box and just give it up?!" Inuyasha spat at his older brother.
Sesshomaru merely answered in his usual calm, emotionless tone of voice, "Why do you even bother starting with me? I have no intention of wasting my time on killing you little brother."
"Look! Sesshomaru isn't even attacking Inuyasha at all, he's only dodging those sent by him!" yelled Sango from the ground.
The group stared in wonder, watching every detail of movement by either of the siblings, wondering why on earth he was not attacking Inuyasha and what it was he had come for this time.
"Inuyasha stop! He doesn't seem to want to fight you! I don't know why, but i just know that that is not the reason he came here!" cried Kagome, dropping her poised bow and loaded arrow to her side.
"WHAT!! That's the only reason I ever see the guy! Why else would he come!?"
Kagome, not wanting Inuyasha to take on more than he could handle, and risk serious injury again, warned him. "Inuyasha!! Stop for a minute!!" of course her warnings did not work... "Inuyasha... OSUWARI!!!!!!"
"EH.." pausing in mid-swing, Inuyasha fell to the ground, creating another little hanyou-shaped crater.
"WHAT THE HELL.... KAGOME!!!"
"Well, she warned you.." added Shippo.
Sesshomaru, remaining a distance from the group, smiled a bit... "Your measely human friends are right Inuyasha. I have not come to fight you... for now that is... I merely have come to proposition you and your friends, little brother."
*thats it for this chapter... will be more to come but its after two and i need to get up early.. ja ne all!*
