"Inu-Inuyasha…? Y-you're… oh man, how am I going to explain this one? Wait! I don't have to! My family is gone! Yes! But that still leaves me with you. What am I to do..?"
Inuyasha stared at Kagome blankly from the bed. He would have started to explain his situation, only he couldn't quite remember anything and the words he wanted to use to talk to her, were fading away. The Inu hanyou just sat there, doggy style, on Kagome's bed, the sheets covering his lower half. With a sigh, he crashed against the girl's bed, inhaling the beautiful scent on the pillow.
"Inuyasha? I need to get you some clothes! But, I don't know if I have anything—unless I let you borrow some of my dad's clothes! You can wear them until I find you something else!" Kagome said with a large grin plastered onto her delicate face.
Inuyasha's ears perked at the sound of her voice and he grudgingly sat up not forgetting to scratch one of his triangular ears with his foot.
"I'll be right back, ok boy? Don't go away!" Kagome nodded at him and rushed out of her room towards her mother's large room. Inuyasha could surely wear her dad's clothes and maybe she could go shopping later on to get him new ones. The girl ravaged through the closet until she reached a few old boxes she presumed were some old clothes. She lifted the box cover off of one, sniffling at the fond memories. Her father use to wear a strange red Haorie and red Hakama's on Halloween. He always claimed that it belonged to some half demon from the Sengoku Jidai. He was always full of stories just like jii-chan.
Kagome got a sudden shiver go down her spine. You know the ones that usually happen when you know someone is watching you? Yeah that. Not to mention she could feel someone breathe against her neck.
"EEK!" Kagome screeched huddling into the closet for cover.
Inuyasha yelped in surprised, backing a few steps also. The poor guy was tangled in Kagome's sheets and was most likely scared half to death. He growled dangerously at Kagome as if a warning to never do that again.
A long sigh of relief escape Kagome's lips, "You scared me! I thought you were a robber her something!" She scurried out of her mothers closet with the clothes in her hands, "Do you like this? It use to belong to my d-dad." She cleared her throat, "you can go the feudal era look!"
Inuyasha stared at her, blinking a few times then at the clothes. The Inu hanyou gasped in surprise. Those looked exactly like his old clothes! He sniffed them cautiously nodding at the thought. Yup, they were definitely his, but another scent covered them, most likely her fathers. He wore those clothes when he was just a little boy. His haorie was passed down to him from his mother. Once he started working for Cirque de freak, they let him wear his red Haorie and Hakama's, but when the circus master decided to turn him into a dog, his clothes were put elsewhere. He never found them after that. Naturally, Kagome's father ended up finding the strange clothing at a store. The man in charge of the store told him a phony tail about a half demon once wearing those same clothes in the Sengoku Jidai. No doubt the poor fool believed him and bought the clothes.
Inuyasha was pretty shocked to actually find them still in good shape. Though, what happened to his Tetsusaiga? Probably in a museum by now. He'd have to find a way to retrieve it.
"So you like them?" Kagome piped.
Inuyasha nodded vigorously at her. Yes, he did like them. They brought back some fond memories.
"Ok, I'll leave them to you to change, ok?" She set them down in front of him. "I'll just go wait in my room." She stood up, and walked towards her room steadily.
Inuyasha blinked down at his clothes. He starred at them for a good few minutes now trying to remember how to put them on. He could barely remember anything! It's like, if he's a dog, he knows everything, but when he is in his human/dog youkai form, he has the same mind as a dog! He leaned his head down to scoop up the clothes with his teeth while trotting back towards Kagome's room on all fours, still tangled in the white sheet.
Kagome was currently getting her towel in her closest until Inuyasha rounded the corner and entered her room with a whimper.
"Hn? What is it Inuyasha? Why haven't you changed?"
He dropped the clothes on the girl's carpet letting out another whine.
"You don't remember how to dress yourself, do you..?" Kagome mumbled nervously.
She took his silence as a yes. This guy was pretty stubborn.. "Ok, I'll help you.. A bit, ok?"
Inuyasha nodded at her, waiting for her magic to work!
"Ok, first you take the Hakama's—"
Inuyasha sniffed one of the parts before yanking on the Hakama's with his fangs and looking at her if he was right.
"—Yes those, and then you, er.. Slip them on over your –gulp- legs.." she added. She motioned for him to come to her so she could show him..
She held out the Hakama's pointed at the legs, "See, you slip one leg in, and the other in the second.. Get it?"
Inuyasha growled pulling it out of her hands with his fangs. He was about to remove the sheet, but then he felt like he needed a bit of privacy. The Hanyou let out a menacing growl at Kagome as if telling her to obviously turn around.
Kagome rolled her eyes, "Right, sorry mister bad attitude." She muttered under her breath turning around.
In a matter of seconds, he HAD them on, but he sadly placed them on backwards.
"Inuyasha? You done?"
A snort was his response.
She whirled around and just about died on the spot. Sweat dropping, she approached him, "Inuyasha, you have them on backwards, try turning them around.."
Inuyasha felt his face flush in embarrassment grumbling things under his breath.
'hn? Was he grumbling words?' she thought, blinking at him for a few minutes.
A warning growl coming from the fiery eyes of the hanyou dog told Kagome to piss off and turn around again. She knew it for a fact! "Sorry." She hissed at him while turning away from the boy again.
This time, Inuyasha had successfully put on his pants the right way. With a grunt, Kagome turned back around and helped him out with his white under garment. ((A/N yes he has that too, forgot to say, but he does!)) He placed his hands on Kagome's shoulder to steady himself since he wasn't quite use to being just on his two feet.
Kagome mentally groaned, "Inuyasha, how about you sit down? It'll be easier."
Inuyasha growled at her before sitting doggy style.
"Ok, now your haorie goes on like this," She placed it over his shoulders, slipping one arm at the time in each sleeve. "Ok, then you tuck it in—" she tucked his haorie in smiling proudly, "—and you're done!"
He glared down at himself in amazement. He loved his clothes. Just loved them. He grinned at her briefly having the grin get replace by a wild dog smile. He crawled up to her and nuzzled her neck gently as a thank you. Not usually his style, but hey, he was happy to be reunited with his clothes.
Kagome blinked, "Er, you're welcome?"
With a strange noise Inuyasha made, he ran out of the nice scented room, towards the bathroom. He sniffed around the little room until he reached the famous toilet. He whimpered not remembering anything on how to use it..
((A/N POOR KAGOME! XD))
Kagome was speechless once she reached the bathroom, 'Kami, where's Souta and jii-chan when you need them!' she though hopelessly. "U-uh, you have to go to the bathroom?"
Inuyasha whimpered again, dancing a bit on his toes. He needed to go! BADLY!
"U-uh, well you uh.. She walked over to the toilet and lifted the seat, "Go to the bathroom in there.. And uh… do you remember?"
Inuyasha stared down at the water in the toilet. Seeing his reflection, ((A/N EWWWWWW)) he scrunched up his nose, nodding his head at her. He did remember. ((A/N luckily..))
"Ok."
-Deadly growl- -strange whimpering noise- -deadly growl-
"OK! I'm out!" The raven-haired girl snapped, walking out. She closed the door, waiting patiently for him to come out.
Yup, she heard the toilet flush, and his claws scratching against the door to be let out. Kagome frowned opening the door, "Hold it buddy!"
Just as he was going to make his escape, a furious Kagome blocked his way.
-Deadly growl-
"Wash your hands!" She ordered.
-Deadly growl-
"Inuyasha…!"
-Deadly growl- -huff- -snort-
Kagome smirked since he pulled the booster towards the bathroom sink with his fangs, grudgingly. He stood up on it, not forgetting to grip the counter for balance. He did not want to have a meeting with the floor today! Nope! Not today!
Kagome giggled at his antics. 'Probably can't get the water running.' She thought. She walked to his side gently showing him how to turn the sink knobs to allow the water to flow. She squeezed some soap into his clawed hands telling him to rub his hand together and to rinse them off.
He knew how to do it. Sure he did! Once he was done, he shook like a wet dog once again attempting to walk out on her until she called, "Inuyasha."
-Little wimper-
She pointed at the toilet seat, "Remember, you have to put the toilet seat down when you are done!"
Inuyasha rolled his golden eyes at her. It would take a million years before he did that for her.
"Inuyasha..!"
Oh shit, warning voice. He backed up towards the toilet and put the seat down just for little miss princess. He snorted at her as if telling her if she was happy. Of course she was. She was very happy. She won the battle! But not yet the war..
"Great, now you're potty trained!" She clapped her hands together happily.
"Next, I must show you how to use chopsticks!" She declared.
"ch…p…st….k..?" he tried to say. But it really didn't come out right.
"You almost had it!" Kagome cheered.
As fast as his memory came, the faster it went back into hiding. He growled out of frustration, hating this torture!
When will it end!
.:.:. With Cirque de Freak.:.:.
"Master, the mutt is still missing? Are we gunna leave without it?"
"No, we need that mongrel. He's our main act! There aren't many half-breeds such as him out there! He's the only one I can have fun with on stage! Go and use as many wolves as you can Ookami! I want him back!" The man seethed.
"Yes, master Naraku." Ookami agreed, leaping out of the trailer in search of Inuyasha once more.
"That mutt has got to be found." He glared down at the shikon no tama within his palm. "Hmm, this jewel seems to be purifying itself, but how?" he tightened his grip on the gem. "He is changing back.. No, he DID change back into his hanyou form. This should make our search easier.. Someone else is purifying the jewel allowing him to return to his normal self. This isn't good. Ookami better find that dog! Or his wolves will be the demons next meals!" he boomed, crushing the jewel into his deadly grip.
.:.:. With Inuyasha .:.:.
"You almost have it…" Kagome cheered but in the end, the chopsticks fell out of his grip once again. He was getting closer and closer to holding the chopsticks, though, they were still very far from actually using them.
With a big huff, Inuyasha crawled out of the chair, chucking the chopsticks at the fridge angrily before stomping off doggy style towards the TV room.
"Inuyasha! It's ok! You nearly had it! I can always make soup if you want. All you have to do is sip it!" Kagome beamed. She had followed him towards his destination with a big encouraging smile.
"KEH!" Inuyasha glared away from her, his nose in the air.
A gasp-escaped Kagome's lips, "You said 'Keh'!"
He blinked dumbly. Did he say that? It just kinda slipped from his mouth.. Though it's not really a word.. Meh, it's still progress!
"C'mon Inuyasha, I'll make some pancakes and waffles! And a few batches of cookies! Ok? And for dinner I'll order Pizza!" the Girl squeaked.
Pancakes, waffles… COOKIES! Talk about drool fest! Those things sounded so good… So good that he trotted back towards the kitchen waiting for these goodies to magically appear before him! Though, he was afraid that her cooking might not be good. That she might poison him or something. He watched patiently, Kagome was currently making the batter for the pancakes. She had a finger on the pancake page of the cookbook, following all the instructions carefully.
"… Flour…. Sugar….Baking powder.. Salt… Uh huh…milk…egg…. Vegetable oil…ok! Got it!" he could hear her mumbled.
After a few minutes, he could hear sizzling noises coming from the weird looking thing on the big metal box. (a.k.a the stove) He sniffed the air feeling like he was in heaving. It smelled delicious and guess what happened next? Kagome flipped the pancakes and pulled out a white saucer thing. Now he remembers! It's called a plate! He watched placed the hot pancakes on the plate, stacked up with a little bit of butter and a lot of syrup on top. He was practically drooling! Wait, crossed that out, he WAS drooling. All over the kitchen floor might I add!
Kagome placed the plate on the table smiling, "Sit on the chair Inuyasha. And I'll allow you to eat this with your hands." She simple said.
Inuyasha wasted no time to get up on the chair and wolf down his pancakes. He did use his hands to eat them. In fact, by the time Kagome came back with a second round of pancakes, his fingers were sticking together!
"More?"
He nodded vigorously wolfing them down again. This day had a pretty good start to it! He couldn't wait for those waffles or the cookies. If the pancakes taste this good, imagine the cookies!
