~T: Hmmm. Should Buyo have a humanoid form, like Lord Sesshomaru-sama? Or should he have a battle form, like Kirara? I think the humanoid form would be funnier. That way, he could yell at InuYasha for not properly protecting Kagome. What do you think Whiteblaze? WB: Personally, I agree with Young Lady Kiniria on this one. But, you should wait and see what the reviewers have to say. T: Ok, they have till the 6th chapter to tell me what they think. Disclaimer: *sniff* I don't own InuYasha! *snifsnif* Though I dearly wish that Lord Sesshomaru-sama was mine! (I'm not going to cry. I'm not.)~

Welcome Home Dad!
Ch.4: Buyo and the Light Bulb

"When will InuYasha get it through his thick skull?" grumbled Kagome as she jumped into the Bone Eaters Well. "If he would just."the familiar bluish-purple light surrounded her as she fell. As she landed, the light faded away. She looked up to see the roof of the well house and if she looked to the side, she would see the ladder her mom and grandpa put there for her. She swung her bag on her back and started to climb. "If he would just let me go home when I want to," she complained. "I wouldn't have to sit him so much."
Once she reached the top, she immediately started to climb the steps leading to the outside world. As she blinked her eyes to adjust to the light outside the well house, she felt something brush against her leg. Startled, she looked down to find, "Buyo! What are you doing out here?" Kagome questioned her big, old cat. "Your not supposed to be out here," she said while bending down to pick up her beloved cat.
Just looking for you, mistress, thought Buyo. I can't trust that dumb dog to look after you.
"Well, it doesn't matter," sighed Kagome as she walked up to and inside the house. "Mom? Grandpa? Souta? Anybody home?" called Kagome as she set down her bag and walked into the kitchen still holding Buyo. (She took off her shoes outside) On the table was a note:

Kagome,

We have gone to visit your aunt in Kyoto. Be back by the end of the month. The kitchen is fully stocked and I know that you can take care of yourself. Keep an eye on Buyo and we'll see you soon

Love, Mom

"Alright! Looks like its three weeks with just you and me, Buyo!" exclaimed Kagome as she went to grab a soda out of the fridge. "Well, come on," said Kagome as she dropped Buyo so she could open her soda. "I think I'll take a nice, hot bath. Than some studying before dinner. But first, LUNCH!" With that, Kagome set to work on making herself a lunch that didn't consist of ramen.
Wow, contemplated Buyo. I never noticed how capable my mistress is at taking care of herself. What, with the Lady of the East taking care of everything, my mistress doesn't get that often to shine. The Lord would be proud! Sigh, Lord Higurashi, were are you?
"Here you go Buyo! Eat up!" said Kagome happily as she placed his dish on the floor in front of him before taking her own seat.
Dang! That was fast! Especially since her demon abilities haven't even been unlocked yet! Than Buyo was lost in a sea of bliss as he started eating the meal his mistress make for him.
After lunch, and the dishes were clean, Kagome and Buyo made their way upstairs. They both went into Kagome's room. While Kagome proceeded to get a change of clothes, Buyo curled up on her bed for a little nap.
"Ahhhh, this feels great!" sighed Kagome as she sunk into the hot water of her bubble bath. "Senjioku jidai is great and all, but you can't beet a modern day bath!" Than, Kagome proceeded to enjoy her bath. (I'm switching to Buyo's POV until she's out of the bath and dressed)
Ok, thought Buyo. Time to figure out a way to go back in time so I can protect my mistress. I don't trust that dog to do an adequate job. Plus, it would be nice to see the young lord again.
Buyo had been thinking on how to go back in time for the past hour. By the time his mistress had gotten out of the bath, dressed, went down stairs to retrieve her bag and came back up stairs and started studying, he had a grand total of zero ideas. Grrr! Why can't I think of anything? He growled inside his head.
Finally fead up, he jumped off the bed and stocked towards Kagome's yellow backpack. It's not fair, he grumbled. This stupid bag can go back in time, yet.I.THAT'S IT! Buyo finally had a light bulb go off in his head. I'll crawl into the bag and hide when my mistress is ready to leave! If you looked at Buyo right now, he would look like the cat who got into the cream. I am such a genius, I even amaze myself sometimes. With that, Kagome picked him up and carried him over to her bed.
"Come on, Buyo," she yawned. "Time for bed." That's when she turned out the light and curled up with her beloved cat. In a matter of minutes, she was fast asleep.
Studied through dinner again, I see, thought Buyo. I'll just have to make sure she eats something in the morning. Than, Buyo drifted off to sleep. Purring contently in his mistress' arms.
