Miroku: (looks at Mr.D suspecting that he was human had not been paying attention when Kagome told them that he was Dionysus, the god of wine) I highly doubt you would have even survived the opponent that Inuyasha faced down.
Mr. D.: I would have simply looked at him, and he would've gone insane.
Miroku: Sesshomaru would have sent you flying and running for your mommy.
Mr. D: Ah, sadly, I have no interest in petty demons. I am a god, and I am stuck here with little tyrants, such as Katelyn here, or that pesky Peter Johnson.
Sango: Ah I see your problem. you look at everything from the wrong perspective. you see children as a burden you should look at this as an oppurtunity to pass your knowledge and experience to these young people and help prepare them for the challenges that they will face in the outside world
Mr. D.: That is a waste of my time. Now, Sally, what exactly could I profit from that?
Sango: the name is Sango. and you can profit from it because you will know you have helped Children reach their full potential and made the world a better place. where I grew up the entire village would help take care and train the young girls and boys to learn the trade. our village's trade was Demonslayers.
Mr. D.: And here we raise a bunch of monster slayers. However, I do not see being trapped with these twirps for a hundred years a good thing. The girls and boys can learn from each other by knocking one another unconscious, that would improve my headache.
Sango: Obviously you have never been a parent or if you did you are one of those kind of parents that see their children as not being worth their time.
Kagome: His son actually lives here. The twin died in the war that just ended.
Sango: either way Kagome he obviously couldn't care less about his children since it is obvious that he hates children all together.
Shippo: except maybe he likes to bully children
Kagome: He's pouting, he actually cares about us, he just doesn't like to show us.
Mr. D.: Bullying children sounds like fun.
Miroku: Children as made to be cherished. they are a priceless gift that only a fool would despise. I have interests to meet some of the little gifts from heaven that dwell in this place and hear their stories.
Sango: And your interest only lies in making them!
Miroku: Sango you know well enough that the only woman I would dream of making children with is you. and the only reason my interest lies there is because if I fail to destroy Naraku before my Windtunnel grows large enough to engulf me it would be nice to know that one or more of my offspring might succeed.
Sango: *sigh* Yes, yes, we've heard that one before!
Miroku: Kagome when you left Inuyasha how was he.
Kagome: Sleeping like a rock. The healers put him under, so they could heal him easier.
Sango: oh yeah he will be pissed off when he wakes. considering what to night is. (looks outside seeing the sun is setting) infact I think you might want to warn the healers so that when his transformation into pure human happens they are not surprised. since to night is the New moon
Chiron: What does the New Moon matter?
Sango: being only a half demon Inuyasha has a period of time when he is as weak as any human. as all Half demons do. his just happens to land on the night of the new moon and on that night he is usually sleepless because if any of his enemies found out about it they would wait to kill him then.
Chiron: I see. I guess he must learn to rest easy here. He will be safe among our borders. We have many a good fighters at our disposal here.
Kagome: though we can't say that even here he will be completely safe I might let's Face it the kids from the Ares' cabin usually want to fight anyone or anything.
Chiron: That is true.
Kagome: and they might see inuyasha as an easy target
Mr. D.: Hurrah. Call me out when he's about to die. I want to watch.
Sango: if you say that again pest you might find your head on the ground. I have no qwalms about seeing how my Hiraikotsu would stand up against you considering that Inuyasha is a very good friend of mine as well as Kagome's closest companion.
(pulls her Hiraikotsu off of her back and fingering it)
Kagome: Yeah, but it's Mr. D. No one cares that he's rude. He's a bitter whiny youngest child.
Chiron: Plus Mr. D doesn't really mean what he is saying he wouldn't wish harm to anyone here. not truely he just is throwing a bit of a fit to see if he can get Zeus to relent on the punishment he gave him.
Kagome: *giggling* But that probably won't work very well, since kids dying on his watch will get him more years on his probation.
Chiron: though I really don't think that having him run this camp was really meant to be part of the punishment I think it was mainly your father's funny way of saying Dionysus is a trust worthy guy who will do a good job watching over the children that will be in his care. in a way it was a vote of confidence. or so I would assume.
Kagome: Or so you would assume?
Chiron: yeah you know I never question your father's business.
Kagome: True. Who really does?
Chiron: only those who want to get blasted into cinders.
Sango: I wouldn't be to sure of that. considering that when Inuyasha first met Kagome's father he questioned him pretty good thinking that Zeus might be one of Naraku's underlings.
Kagome: Dad does give a bit of rope to the ignorant ones. When things are explained, and their heads are still to thick to understand, then they're ashes
Shippo: we are just lucky that Inuyasha's head was not that thick.
Miroku: Yes, we are.
Sango: I must admit to stupidity myself considering that instead of analyzing the situation I assumed that Kagome and Inuyasha were in trouble and attacked on instinct. (remembers throwing her Hiraikotsu at Zeus and seeing how easily he deflected it.)
Kagome: Yep. Dad's pretty forgiving that way. Now, if you pulled that with Ares, then you wouldn't have lived to catch it again.
Miroku: Yes Kagome your father is a wonderful man in many ways. he probably also realised that Sango sees you and Inuyasha as being almost as close as her siblings since her brother Kohaku was stolen away by Naraku.
Chiron: Not to mention that our last enemy was Hermes' possessed son.
Sango: (looks like she is going to start to cry) Next time since it seems to me the only way to free my brother from Naraku. I will kill him and then soon after myself.
Chiron: That would be counterproductive, my dear Sango. What exactly would that accomplish. Killing him may be a necessity, as he is probably dead already, in reality. But killing yourself, that would eliminate the last demon-slayer, and then, what would our dear Miroku have to settle for company?
Kagome: She wasn't thinking rationally she loves her brother so much that she can't bear the thought of him being alone in death. once she calms down reason will return to her.
Chiron: It seems that the easiest way to do that would be for Miroku to comfort her. However, since he cannot do so without groping her, I'd be tempted to drug her like they did Inuyasha.
Shippo: good luck with that idea mister Chiron. she is nothing if not a fighter. of course so is Inuyasha I now must wonder how they managed to drug him?
Kagome: They probably got him with a tranquilizer dart.
Miroku: funny I didn't think that summer camps kept store of tranquillizers of any kind.
Kagome: You can't really say that this is a normal summer camp.
Miroku: normal is a relative term Kagome. if you were a stranger to me and did not know my habits wouldn't you think I was a normal monk?
Kagome: Exactly. From the outside, this looks completely normal. Just a bunch of strawberry fields.
Miroku: (walks over to comfort Sango and as usual begins rubbing her behind) everything will be alright Sango. Your brother will be rescued and Naraku will be defeated.
(doesn't even seem to care that Chiron and Mr. D are watching. )
Sango: Hentai monk! *hits him with Hiraikotsu*
Miroku: Ow that hurt. Sango you know I love you why is it you just can't take the comfort I give.
Sango: I would if you gave the appropriate type of comfort!
Miroku: we are practically engaged how is what I am doing inapporpriate? since I am almost your husband.
Sango: Because I don't want comfort in the form of touching me like that! Whatever happened to a normal hug and moral support?
Miroku: I am sorry Sango. I just thought that a touch like that would be equally as comforting. because it let's you kow that I love you and will be there to support you all the way. So I have my own way of saying it who is to say that is wrong?
Shippo: I think it also embarrasses her because there were more people here than just you and her.
Kagome: It also probably doesn't help that you do it to every girl that you see, so it's not exclusive.
Chiron: well I think we should consider checking up on Inuyasha's progress and thus give Mr. D a chance to meet the half demon.
Mr. D : Thrilling.
Chiron : or if you don't wish to meet Inuyasha you can stay here. Mr. D I how ever was only hastily introduced to him and would like to be better acquainted with him.
Mr. D : Alright then, go ahead. I'll play pinochle with the satyrs.
Miroku: oh what is Pinochle? can you teach me to play?
Mr. D.: As long as you are not a dunce, I think it is considerably simple.
Miroku: we don't have that kind of game in the Feudal era of Japan. which is where we come from. is it similar to pai gow poker?
Mr. D: It is a game of betting and trickery, if that is what you mean.
Miroku: sounds like fun.
Mr. D: Do not play with Chiron. You will go broke.
Miroku: is he really good?
Kagome: I've never seen Mr. D win against him.
Miroku: I see.
Chiron: (leads the others to the infirmary) come on let's let Mr. D teach miroku in piece. beside I think I can hear the healers having trouble with something.
Kagome: Oh no...
Inuyasha: (had awakened and was now trying to get to his feet.)(has atleast 10 healers trying to hold him down)
*They all run down to find him*
(as the sun was not completely down yet he still has some of his demonic strength)
Kagome: *running to his side* Inuyasha, relax!
Chiron: What is going on in here? (looks at the healers) why is Inuyasha in a state of panic?
Kagome: He has trust issues. And infallible pride.
Inuyasha: Kagome you now Darn well why I have the trust issues. with the exceptions of you, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo. name me five people who accept me knowing what I am knowing full well that I am a half demon.
Kagome: Kaede, Jinenji, Chiron... OOH my mom and Sota!
Shippo: And Kagome you can't forget about your father though I think in his case it is more or less tolerence.
Kagome: Hm... I didn't think about that... Mr. D is okay, he doesn't really like anyone...
Chiron: Kagome is right Inuyasha I do accept you and I think you really need to trust us to take good care of you.
Shippo: though it does look like the wounds are closed up enough to where inuyasha should be able to get up and move around a bit.
Kagome: Yeah, but he's not doing it alone.
Chiron: Kagome you can head to your cabin you can trust inuyasha to my care for now we will all see you at dinner.
Kagome: Okay, I'll see you all later.
Sango: (had been looking up to the hill where they had all been not very long ago when they had arrived at Camp Half-blood) Uh I think some one followed us here.
Inuyasha: (gets to his feet and goes over to Sango and looks where she is looking) yeah someone followed us alright and unless I am mistaken it looks like my half brother Sesshomaru. Well there is a little daylight left I will face my brother. (some one stop him)
Kagome: No! Sit (hee) down! Chiron, back me up!
Inuyasha: (at Kagome's command of sit goes crashing into the earth)
Chiron: Yes. I think it wise to lay back and let the campers take care of him.
Clarisse: (having come from the Ares' cabin) I will do battle with the villian outside our camp.
Chiron: Be careful, Clarisse.
Inuyasha: (scoffs as he looks at Clarisse) you little girl? only if you want your innerds ripped out. trust me he won't go easy on you just because you are a girl.
Clarisse: *at the loud, yelling volume of Clarisse's normal voice* What would you know, dog boy? I'm ready to kick some butt!
Inuyasha: (yells Back) Because that is my brother out there I know his skill he kills for the thrill of it. and for the fun of defeating fighters far more strong than you.
Clarisse: I don't care. I have my pride with me, I'll fight anything.
Kagome: Clarisse take it easy Inuyasha is only trying to warn you to take extreme care. Sesshomaru is dangerous and his venom claws are no laughing matter.
Clarisse: I'll take that into account, princess.
Chiron: Go on Clarisse but like I said before becareful I don't want to think about what your father will have to say to me if you get hurt fighting Inuyasha's brother.
Clarisse: Yeah, yeah. He looks like fun! *walks toward Sesshomaru*
Sesshomaru: (looks at Clarisse and sneers) So my cowardly baby brother sends a mere girl to fight me?
Clarisse: Your "cowardly baby brother" is too weak to stand. I'm just filling in the blanks, meathead.
Sesshomaru: well you will at least make a good warm up.
Clarisse: You wish. *Runs to attack*
Sesshomaru: Venom Claws.
Clarisse: *dodges, and spins, bringing her sword to his neck*
Sesshomaru: (dodges and brings out his tokijin and runs at Clarisse.) Die pitiful mortal.
Clarisse: Oh, HADES NO! *Deflects his blade and tries to slice at his wrist*
Sesshomaru: I am more than a match for you girl I will show you mercy this one time go and run away home.
Clarisse: News flash: I am home!
Sesshomaru: well then get in side before your family starts worry about you little girl. I am being kind this one time since you are not strong enough to withstand me alone. (Turns around to leave) I will be back when baby brother is able to face me himself.
Clarisse: Hey, would it be interesting to know that the human girl he travels with is my family?
Sessohmaru: Kagome is as human as any of my half brother's friends are.
Clarisse: Nuh uh. She's part god, too. So, she's still family.
Sesshomaru: I saw her father he is mortal. he has black hair and wore a crazy suit.
Clarisse: Nope. He's a god. He was in his human form at the moment.
Sesshomaru: I could have easily broken his arm.
Clarisse: Maybe... *thunder rolls* SORRY! But kill him? No chance.
Sesshomaru: I nearly killed Kagome with him standing right there
Clarisse: Yes, but the gods aren't allowed to interfere. There are rules that he broke.
Sesshomaru: Since he is a god shouldn't he be above rules?
Clarisse: The rules were made to prevent bitterness among them all, because as a god making the rules, he must follow them.
Sesshomaru: well go tell your sister that when her friend is stronger I will be back to kill her and him. (turns around and walks away. )
Clarisse: She's a cousin, not a sister!
Clarisse: *to inuyasha* I hate your brother.
Inuyasha: join the club I hate him with everything I have.
Clarisse: Good. I think we at least have that in common.
Inuyasha: (now looks completely human since the sun has fully set) we also both have a temper
Kagome: Why are you more like my family than I am?
Inuyasha: maybe because after age four I had to raise myself So I got traits that are similar to your family.
Kagome: Maybe... I was raised like them though... I just have to wonder...
Inuyasha: you and your friends here and your family at least had the boon of being accepted by both sides of your heritage. Half demons are accepted by neither their human nor their demonic breathren. to be honest we half demons are alone in the world.
Kagome: That's true... But we have to hide to be accepted. The mist masks what we really are... Anything that has happened that shouldn't be real, humans make up lies that fit into their version of reality.
Clarisse: Kagome what does he mean by he is not accepted. by anyone? (is now quite curious) He has been accepted here. has he not who here has turned their backs on him?
Kagome: Clarisse, he lived in the Feudal Era of Japan... People had demon attacks everywhere, and so the people didn't really accept him, and demons call him half blood and tainted.
Chiron: we can further discuss this after dinner but for now let's go get food.
Kagome: I didn't even get to go to my cabin...
Inuyasha: go on Kagome go settle in. I will just do what I usually do these nights. you know my habits
Kagome: You are eating. The food here is better than ramen.
Sango: you know what inuyasha meant he will eat no doubt but after wards if I know him he will sit up and await the dawn wakefully
Kagome: We have Argus and Peleus for that... While he's healing, I want him to sleep.
Shippo: you know darn well he never sleeps on the night of the new moon. and I doubt he will start now.
Clarisse: why is that little fox?
Kagome: I will have them shoot him with another dart! He's a demon, but he's nice, cute, and cuddly
Shippo: (decides to answer Clarisse's question) because as you can see Inuyasha now looks human and he is now as weak as any human but when the morning comes he will once more have his demonic strength again. and Kagome you don't want to make inuyasha mad it might be best to let him alone if we all know what is good for us.
Kagome: Fine. But I'm at least walking him to dinner.
Shippo: suit yourself Kagome.
Kagome: I will.
Kagome: *pulls Inuyasha up, and puts his arm over her shoulder, and tries to take him to the dining pavilion*
Inuyasha: Kagome I can walk you know I think I can handle walking myself.
Kagome: No. Just do this for me, please?
Inuyasha: (sighs in defeat and lets her lead him to the Dining pavilion)
Kagome: Thank you, Inuyasha. I'll go get us our food *setting him down at the table*
Inuyasha: (smiles knowing he is making Kagome happy)
Kagome: *returns with a plate heaping with food* Here, dig in! I didn't know what you would like, so I got you a bit of everything...
Inuyasha: (looks at the food) my this looks good. I have never seen this much food in my life.
Kagome: *smiles* Hey, we're Greek. We like feeding people...
Miroku: (seems to have made friends with Mr. D and is talking with him while they eat) Inuyasha's father was named Inutaisho and his mother was a human woman named Izayoi. from what I know of the history Inutaisho was one of the few Demons who had a soft spot for humans and a desire to protect them and to that end Inuyasha's father had two swords made. both were forged from his own fangs
Mr. D: Fangs? How big were they?
Miroku: normal demon fangs. the first sword Inuyasha bears which is called the Tetsusaiga it can slay a hundred enemies in a single swing. and the second the Tenseiga can save a hundred lives in a single swing. Sadly Sesshomaru bears that one.
Mr. D: I see what he did there... Protecting humans.
Miroku: yeah I wish I had gotten a chance to know inuyasha's father. but he died long before I was born.
Mr. D: What year was this? I know I was around.
Miroku:it would have been about 200 years ago as we from the feudal era of Japan would make it. we came to this time period through one of the only time passages known the bone eater's well is the door way that allows us to visit this time at all.
Mr. D: Well, I assume I was somewhere in England at the time. Time travel? Sounds intriguing.
Inuyasha: (looks first at Miroku and Dionysis and then at Kagome) Miroku seems to have made a friend here.
Kagome: I'm glad, Mr. D and Miroku seem to make very little friends.
Inuyasha: it is very odd Kagome. I actually feel accepted by people in your family which is not the norm for a half demon.
(has finished eating) and the food here is very good.
Kagome: Well, as we're half breeds ourselves, we'd be hypocrites, don't you think? Plus, we fight for our lives from monsters who prey on us because we're half-breeds of the gods. We're really similar, just the breed is different.
Inuyasha: I suppose you are right. the only other difference is that where as Half demons like me have times of weakness. you guys don't have that. but other than that we are almost completely the same.
Kagome: Yep. That seems to be the only difference... It's easy that way.
Inuyasha: (having finished dinner now begins noticing that everyone is finishing up their dinners) well Kagome I wish you untroubled sleep. I will find a place to settle myself and sit up and watch for danger and await the dawn. (is un aware of one of the demi gods who had helped in carring for his wounds is now sneaking up behind him)
Kagome: Okay, goodnight Inuyasha *hugs him so he doesn't fall over because she noticed*
Inuyasha: Goodnight Kagome. (starts to stand up)
Kagome: *Stands up with him*
Inuyasha: (turns around to walk away then notices the kid) ok... who are you and why are you standing behind me?
Kid: Sorry, it's for you, man. *sticks him*
Inuyasha: (goes unconscious)
Sango: (hurries over to inuyasha) what did you do to him?
Kid: Put him to sleep.
Kagome : *to Chiron* where do we put him?
Sango: Kagome how can you be so calm this kid knocked Inuyasha out.
Kagome: This way he'll heal faster.
Sango: we both know he never sleeps on the night of a new moon.
Kagome: I know, but healing is more important. He'll hate us in the morning, but honestly, I think it's worth it.
Clarisse: Kagome I don't think Inuyasha will be to angry at us especially if we all do a good job of guarding him.
Kagome: I hope so, but he's got the pride of your whole cabin and the Aphrodites put together!
Chiron: as for where we will place him for now. he and the rest of your friends can stay at the big house with mr. D and me.
Kagome: Okay. I'll head to my cabin. G'night...
Chiron: Night (with Sango's help carries Inuyasha off to the house) Mr. D we are having guests over at our house. since I don't want to over step bounds and place these guys with the other campers we will have them staying with us. Until we get some info from Zeus and the others.
Kagome: Reasonable.
Clarisse: come on Princess you need your sleep I will walk you to your cabin and then get my own sleep.
Kagome: Thanks, Clarisse. G'night, guys.
Sango: Night Kagome be safe.
Clarisse leads Kagome to the Cabin for Zeus' children)
Kagome: Kay, see you later, Clarisse.
Clarisse: you to Kagome. (walks back to the Ares' cabin)
Chiron: (gets Sango, Shippo, Miroku, and Inuyasha settled into bed and then heads to settle himself in for the night)
Everyone: *in bed*
