Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, or its characters. Or the Burns from That 70's Show.
Okay,
So after reading all your reviews (Which I love by the way! You guys all rock) I read through the story again and thought, they are completely out of Character. But who cares, they'll probably stay like that for the whole story. Sesshomaru's whole speech about humans and demons was just something I threw in there so it made sense why he wasn't killing Kagome. Read and Review.

"Please"
"No"
"Please"
"No"
"Aww, come on Sesshomaru can we please just stop for a moment?" I complained. My feet ached, we had been walking for two days straight, without stopping for rest at all! Okay, to be fair Sesshomaru let me stop a few hours ago at a town for food and water. But I still hadn't gotten any sleep in days. At least with Inuyasha I had the others to complain with me, peer pressure, it made me wish Rin was here too.
"Girl, we stopped not long ago. You can wait" He was always so distant, like he wasn't angry, or sad, or happy. Wasn't I at least getting on his nerves?
"But I'm tired! I haven't slept in days. And for god sakes my names Kagome" I whined. I eyed him carefully. I had made him smile days ago, maybe I could get him to show some emotion now.
"You will survive" His face stayed void of any emotion, what a hardass. Why was I trying to annoy him? He could kill me any moment he got sick of me complaining, boy, I must be suicidal.
"Just because you're some Demon Lord doesn't mean you have the right to be so…so…infuriating!" It came again, like word vomit I couldn't control my yelling. I bit my bottom lip to keep myself from saying anything more.
"Well Ka-go-me, if you wish to sleep you are more than welcome. But I will not wait for you, you will continue on by yourself" Sesshomaru spoke through his teeth. The anger on his face was only apparent for a moment, but it was something. I tried to hide a grin by turning my face to the side. "What is it girl?" He asked defensively
"You're angry" I smiled at him confidently.
"You enjoy my anger?" His voice sounded angry, but the curiosity was obviously there.
"It's better than your stupid Zen act. You have to feel something, it's not natural to not feel anything" I shrugged
"You prefer anger?"
"Yep" I beamed
Sesshomaru's POV
What is with this girl? Why would she want to make me angry, is she suicidal? This is simply infuriating. I cannot kill her, not until I find Inuyasha. When I find him, and refuse to give up his precious Miko, he will have to give me the Tetsuiga.
"You are weird girl"
"KAGOME!" She corrected, she rolled here eyes and continued to walk. I grated my teeth together. How dare she roll her eyes to me!
"Can we just rest here?" She asked as we came across a river bank
"It is a poor choice for a rest. But, you may rest here if you wish" I sighed as I sat beside the roots of a tree.
"Eww…It's muddy" She complained as she stepped beside the bank. I groaned and resisted the temptation to throw her in.
"Then sleep further away from the bank" I sighed and closed my eyes to think. I heard the crunch of leaves beside me and opened my eyes. The girl lay not too far away from me. "What are you doing?" I asked with menace
"Resting" She answered simply.
"I mean what are you doing sleeping so close to me?" I sneered
"Boy, you are so touchy. I'm like, a metre away from you. In that case, I'm helping you deal with your social phobia" She beamed and continued to rest beside me.
I closed my eyes and fell into a gentle sleep before the girl began to talk again. It's not as if she doesn't talk enough when she's awake, she has to sleep in her sleep as well.
"Mmm…Inuyasha…" She mumbled, I hung my head back in disgust. Who could dream of that worthless scum? "Inuyasha you're such a manwhore" I tried unsuccessfully to hold back a chuckle. "Sesshomaru?" I opened my eyes to check if she was awake yet, she wasn't. "Sesshomaru…You really need to loosen up" What a weird girl.
I closed my eyes again and fell into sleep.
"Wakey Wakey Mr. Sleepy" I voice laughed from in front of me. I opened my eyes to face the girl, her nose almost touching mine. I lowered my brows and attempted to move my head away from hers. I moved my head backwards and it hit the tree trunk.
Kagome's POV
I giggled when he bumped his head on the tree, he seemed to hit it pretty hard. Do demons feel pain like we do?
"Are you okay?" I smiled as I mounted off of him.
"Yes, lets just go" He huffed
"Not a morning person, huh?" I asked
"Believe me girl, if I wasn't a morning person you'd be dead by now" I was guessing he was serious. Sesshomaru was a very serious person.
"My name is Kagome. You know, you're almost as irritable as your brother" I decided to push his buttons a little longer
"Do not compare me to that half breed" He growled
"Who cares if I do? You know you're better then him, comparing you to him is only going to give him self esteem issues" I shrugged
I saw the side of his mouth twitched into a smile for a moment before it turned back into his normal, emotionless expression. "Tell me girl, why do you travel with Inuyasha?"
"Oh. Well, you know the Sacred Jewel?"
He nodded in response.
"I'm the one who broke it" I bit my lip in embarrassment "But, I though it was a good idea at the time. I mean, shoot the bird with its own leg and it will hit. I didn't think it would hit that well"
"I do not understand. Why would you then journey with Inuyasha?"
"Well, I needed to collect the jewel shards. And I couldn't fight whatever else wanted it. In a way I guess Inuyasha was employed as my personal bodyguard" I laughed, it sounded much, much cooler then it really was "then I decided I would help Inuyasha, Sango and Miroku fight Naraku"
"Why?"
I shrugged "I guess I was bored"
"Do you not love Inuyasha?"
"Loves a funny word" I sighed "Inuyasha has Kinky Hoe-I mean- Kikyo. I'm just her reincarnation"
"You don't look like that priestess to me"
I looked at him happily "Thankyou"
"We only have a few sundowns until we reach our destination, you will need to increase your pace if you plan to get there in time" He warned
I smiled and increased my pace to meet his.
"Girl?" Sesshomaru asked
"Yes? And it's Kagome"
"Next time you choose to force rest upon us would you mind extending the courtesy of stopping at an inn? I think I have a twig in my pants"
"What a coincidence, so does inuyasha" I giggled.
Hey Guys,
Okay, so I can't take credit for that last burn. I got that off That 70's Show. But it does kind of suit Inuyasha doesn't it? Kagome has been really cruel about Inuyasha this chapter hasn't she? I wasn't really planning that, but do you guys like it? Or should I loosen up on the poor doggy? So, Review Please! REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
