Dreamstar: I'm tired today, so let's just hurry with the reviews and get on with the story. Kaori!

Kaori: Our first review is from Soul-harvester from chapter 2. It reads:

Hey I'm only on the 2nd chapter right now but I had to point something out. Under no circumstances is Kagome as strong as InuYasha. I'm not sexist but InuYasha is easily the better fighter, just because Kagome has Priestess powers doesn't meen she can fight, after all have you ever heard of a priestess who could kick ass with her fighting skills. Now I am not dissing Kagome either but you kind of are making her a lot more powerful than InuYasha because not only does she have the strength of InuYasha in your story but she also has Miko powers. So you made Kagome as good as InuYasha in strength and are wasting him in holy power, damn throw the dog a bone lol.

Dreamstar: Oh no, it's not that she's stronger. See, if you have tons of hatred towards someone, you usually end up wanting to hurt that someone badly. You end up stronger this way. Kagome had that surge of energy and wanted to beat up Inuyasha badly. Just cause he was mean to her in the beginning. Inuyasha in real life is stronger than Kagome-

Kagome: HEY!

Dreamstar:-but Kagome can easily overpower him by anger. Whew! That was a long explanation. Sorry it's almost been a month. I had a little writers block. And for a while, my parents have been using the computer. I'm thinking of posting the sequel to my other story soon, so look out for it. Don't get your hopes up, I've been having a lot of tests lately. My neck is killng me right now. Well, let's get on with this story.

Disclaimer: Man, do we have to do this every time? I don't own Inuyasha, end of story, good bye!


Chapter 7

Babysitting Troubles

Today was just your normal any day. Inuyasha and Kagome fighting over something. Miroku grabbing Sango's butt, yup those were the days. It always seemed that when Inuyasha and Kagome got a little closer, they fight about something stupid and it brings chaos into Shikon High. Anyways, it started out like this…

"Hey Inuyasha, are you going to eat that?" Kagome asked pointing to Inuyasha's odd-looking brownie.

"No, you want it?" Inuyasha asked as he watched Kagome eye the brownie.

"Can I really have it? Thanks." Kagome swiped the brownie and began to eat it.

"You actually like that stuff? You're weird. Everyone knows the cafeteria's brownies are gross." Inuyasha said as Kagome began glaring at him.

"What do you mean weird? You're weirder than I am!" Kagome yelled Inuyasha.

"Oh, so just cause I'm hanyou I'm weird?" Inuyasha said.

"Why do you always go back to that? Of course not. It's your personality. It's weird!" Kagome yelled. Sango and Miroku watched their friends bicker as Miroku placed his hand on an all to familiar place.

"Kyah! HENTAI! PERVERT!" Sango yelled as she smacked him out of the school. Inuyasha and Kagome seemed too busy to notice because they were still arguing.

"That's it! I've had it. You two argue so much, you don't even hear Miroku screaming his head off while being launched into the air about 5 miles above the school! How can two people bicker so much?" Sango yelled questioningly as she stormed off in search of the still screaming Miroku. They both stared at each other.

"What's with Sango?" Inuyasha asked Kagome. Kagome just shrugged.

"Beats me." was all Kagome could answer before they headed off to their next class.

"Man, we have math next." Inuyasha said as the chubby old teacher walked in. He started the usual, lecturing the ears off students and talking about his life of getting surgery and what not. If you looked around, you would see some students sleeping, some students listening to I-pods, and some chatting with friends. Even the smart people who loved math weren't paying attention. Kagome was chatting with Sango about shopping while Inuyasha and Miroku were snoozing away.

"We should go shopping this afternoon." Sango said. Kagome didn't answer. "What's wrong?"

Kagome looked up at Sango. "I'm sorry. I can't go shopping. I'm babysitting Souta today."

Sango began to laugh. "You just reminded me. I have to baby-sit my brother today too. Why don't we baby-sit together?" Sango asked. Kagome smiled.

"That would be great!" Kagome said. They heard a thud and looked behind them to see Miroku on the floor, a river of drool flowing out of his mouth.

"Somebody might want to pick him up first." Sango said. Kagome nodded. Inuyasha kicked him awake, and Miroku looked around, noticed the class laughing, and sat back down. Miroku still didn't know why everyone was laughing, so he played along and laughed too. This made everyone laugh even more. The teacher, not even noticing all of this noise, continued talking about, you guessed it, his life.

Night of babysitting…

Ding! Dong! Kagome ran to the door. It flung open with a group of four people.

"Sango, I'm glad you came. I already ordered lots of pizza. Inuyasha? Miroku? What are you doing here?" Kagome talked so much Inuyasha had to cover her mouth just to shut her up.

"Miroku wanted to help Sango. So with nothing else to do, I decided to come over." Inuyasha explained, although only half telling the truth. Kagome nodded. She looked over at the little boy next to the group of teens.

"You must me Kohaku…KAWAII!" Kagome screamed as she hugged Kohaku. Kohaku didn't say anything. A cough was heard coming from behind Kagome.

"Oh yeah, Souta, this is Kohaku." Kagome introduced as Souta and Kohaku began to run away from the teens upstairs.

"Where are you guys going?" Kagome and Sango yelled in unison as they ran after the two. Inuyasha and Miroku looked at each other.

"Think they have any food here?" Miroku asked. Inuyasha looked over in the kitchen and spotted a box full of ramen.

"When it comes to ramen, every man, youkai, and hanyou for themselves!" Inuyasha yelled as he grabbed the box and ran off with it. Miroku chased after him.

"Inuyasha, how do you expect to eat it without hot water?" Miroku yelled as they continued running around the house.

With Kagome and Sango…

"Souta! Kohaku! Where are you?" Kagome yelled as she and Sango frantically searched the house. While searching, they spotted Miroku and Inuyasha running around the house with the box of ramen. Kagome sighed. "It was bound to happen. Inuyasha found the ramen. Now, if I were two 10 year old boys, where would I be?"

"If I were Kohaku I would a) be chasing a stray animal b) playing soccer or c) playing video games." Sango said as they continued to think. Then, it hit them.

"Of course!" Kagome yelled as they ran towards Souta's room. Right in front of the two girls, were the two 10-year-old boys, in front of Souta's most prized possession, his new game console (to lazy to name it). Souta and Kohaku were glued to the screen as they tried to beat each other up in this epic feudal era based game. Souta was playing as a monk and Kohaku was playing as a demon slayer.

"Oi! What's going on?" Inuyasha asked as he slurped some ramen from his cup. Souta turned towards him.

"You any good at this game?" Souta asked as he tossed a third controller at him. Inuyasha just stared at him. Miroku came in, out of breath from chasing an Inuyasha around the house trying to get something to eat.

"What? I have to play you two? Ha, as if I'd let you win." Inuyasha said as the game began. Inuyasha was a dog demon against Kohaku's demon slayer, and Souta's monk. The fight began, with Inuyasha at a great lead. Kohaku and Souta were losing, badly.

"What the heck? How is this guy so good at this game?" Souta yelled as Kohaku tried to sweep kick Inuyasha (in the game). Inuyasha just smirked.

"At the arcade, I'm known as Lord Inu of video games. Weird name yes, but I still slaughtered everyone at any game." Inuyasha explained as Souta and Kohaku went into a daze.

"You're…" Souta started.

"…Lord Inu of video games!" Kohaku finished. They were both pale. They had heard tales of him, but never had they known all this time, their sisters were friends with him. It seemed illogical. Souta looked towards his sister.

"It's up to you now sis." Souta said as he pointed towards his sister. Kagome didn't know what he was talking about.

"Souta told me all about Kagome. How she was the best at any game thrown at her all of her life. How she was known as Queen Kag of video games." Kohaku explained to Miroku and Sango. Inuyasha cracked his knuckles.

"Good, I've always wanted a real challenge." Inuyasha said. Kagome began to laugh.

"But, I haven't played these kinds of games in so long. You would have to go easy on me. I probably won't be that good." Kagome whined as she picked up the controller. The game started…with Kagome's priestess winning.

"I thought you said you wouldn't be that good!" Inuyasha complained. Kagome smirked.

"I said probably, doesn't mean I wouldn't kick your butt!" Kagome yelled as she finished him off with a sacred arrow. But that was only Round 1, Round 2 was about to start. Inuyasha, knowing Kagome was going to be a tough opponent, pulled every trick you can think of and won Round 2 with a nice combo. The last round began, both wearing the other down with every second. Who was the winner going to be?

"WHERE THE HECK IS SOUTA AND KOHAKU!" Sango yelled as both Inuyasha and Kagome fell off the bed, being disrupted from concentration. Miroku turned off the console, and faced his friends.

"Let's calm down. Two ten-year-old boys are missing. This is probably just a prank they're trying to pull. Let's not be alarmed." Miroku said as Sango began to calm down.

"Ok, you guys let's split up into two groups to find Kohaku and Souta. Inuyasha and Kagome, you will be in one group, Miroku and I will be in another." Sango explained as she grabbed Miroku's arm and ran off. Kagome began to laugh. Inuyasha looked at her.

"What's so funny?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome tried to settle down from her laughing fit.

"Souta has a couple of hiding spots he and Kohaku are probably hiding in. Let's just let Sango and Miroku run around for a bit. Souta and Kohaku will probably fall asleep before those two find them." Kagome explained as she sat down and turned on the TV. Inuyasha sat next to her and they began to watch a movie.

With Miroku and Sango…

"Where the heck could they be? They're just two little boys, how can they be gone this long?" Sango asked as she looked around every little thing in the shrine. She sighed. "It's no use, we'll never find them. They could be anywhere in this big shrine."

Sango and Miroku began walking back to Souta's room…to find Inuyasha and Kagome just watching TV.

"WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU GUYS DOING? SOUTA AND KOHAKU ARE STILL MISSING!" Sango yelled. Inuyasha and Kagome looked at them.

"If you two are done playing around, I would like to show all of you where Souta and Kohaku are." Kagome explained as they followed Kagome. Kagome took them to a little hut not too far away from the shrine. Inside were games, a TV, a DVD player, a game console, a couple of sleeping bags, a refrigerator, a microwave, a stove, a fireplace near the corner, and…two sleeping boys in front of an unfinished videogame. Sango and Miroku had very wide eyes. This was like a house, only smaller. Inuyasha was impressed by all the stuff in the hut.

Slowly, Inuyasha picked up the two sleeping boys and headed off back towards the house. The pizza finally arrived, and the four teens ate as a small conversation began between them.

"You must be lucky for you and Souta to have a sleepover hut. It must have cost a lot to have all that stuff in there." Sango said as she gulped down some soda.

Kagome shook her head. "We got them all from family members from our birthdays and Christmases. The TV and DVD were bought by my mom and the stove was always there."

"Didn't you just move here this year?" Miroku asked. Kagome shook her head again.

"I've always lived here, I just keep moving schools." Kagome explained.

"Why?" Inuyasha asked. Right before Kagome could answer, a loud yawning could be heard. They turned towards the drowsy do, Kohaku and Souta.

"Don't we get pizza too?" Souta asked as he and Kohaku stumbled towards the table. Kagome smiled.

"Of course. What kind of babysitters would we be if we didn't give you any food?" Kagome replied. They smiled…and stared at Inuyasha. This made Inuyasha feel very nervous…and he was never nervous.

Suddenly, their were yells of "Inuyasha is the coolest!" and "I want to be just like him!" Inuyasha, being the very confused hanyou he was, just patted their heads and walked away. Kagome grabbed Inuyasha's hand and pulled him outside, although, she didn't notice the dark blush that crept onto Inuyasha's face. She pulled him towards a very big tree.

"This is one of my favorite spots. It's perfect to climb and to get away from family and school matters. It's called the Goshinboku tree." Kagome explained as Inuyasha stared at the tree in front of him. It made him feel, comfortable. He always preferred trees to buildings, even though there were more trees than buildings.

"Hello? Inuyasha?" Kagome asked as she waved her hand in front of him. Inuyasha snapped out from his thought.

"What? Huh?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome giggled. Inuyasha just stared at her. There was something about her…that was different then most girls he know like Sango and…yuck…Kikyo. It made him feel…weird.

"Come on, let's go! Unless of course you don't want anymore pizza!" Kagome said as she ran into the house. Inuyasha smiled as he raced after her. Yes, there was something different, and he wanted to see what it is that made him feel this way.


Sorry if there wasn't enough Inu/Kag fluff for you all. I tried to finish this as fast as I could. I'm really tired so I'll end it here. Thanks for the reviews from last time. Can I have at least 7 this time? That way I will have a total of 50! REVIEW NOW!
