Strange
Chapter Seven
Flower Field and Resolved Fights
"Bankotsu, hurry up."
Bankotsu reached the field just moments after Kagome did. He was breathing heavily. "Tired already Bankotsu," Kagome asked while smiling. "No, its just that you took off so fast that I had to run even faster to catch up with you." "I beat you this time didn't I Bankotsu," Kagome asked him, already knowing the answer. "I guess you did. If you don't count the cheating part," he added. Kagome looked at him and said, "Hey, it wasn't cheating. I just ran faster." "It wasn't really a race either," Bankotsu explained. "What are you trying to say?" "I'm trying to say that if you had told me it was a race, I would have ran faster."
"What are you trying to say, that I can't beat you?" Kagome asked. "That's exactly what I am trying to say. Well, I doubt that you would have won. Your already out of breath right now." "Because I never ran that fast in my life." Kagome sighed. "Excuses, excuses." Hearing this, Bankotsu grew a little mad. He didn't like the idea of his strength taken for grant.
"That isn't true Kagome."
"Is to."
"Is not."
"Is to."
"Is not."
And they continued arguing like this for another five minutes without even noticing that Renkotsu, Suikotsu, Ginkotsu, and Jakotsu had come.
"Do you think we should stop them From arguing?" Renkotsu whispered to Suikotsu.
"No, I like seeing people argue," Jakotsu casually told them. "Besides, they need some bonding time."
" I don't think arguing is going to help them bond," Renkotsu told Jakotsu.
"Gesh," Ginkotsu agreed.
"I'll go," Suikotsu offered.
"Is to."
"Is not."
"Is-"
Suikotsu cut Kagome off.
"It is and isn't."
"When did you get here Suikotsu?" Kagome asked.
"About seven minutes ago," he replied.
"What are you doing her?" Bankotsu asked. "I told you not to come. "Big brother, you guys took too long and we thought that you might be in some sort of trouble So we came looking for you," Suikotsu explained. "We?" Kagome asked him. "Are the others with you too?" Bankotsu asked Suikotsu. Yes. I brought them along as well. Just curious, Bankotsu. What are you and Kagome doing in a field of flowers?"
Before Bankotsu could answer, Jakotsu came along with Renkotsu and Ginkotsu.
"Big brother," Jakotsu yelled.
"So, what were you doing here?" Renkotsu asked. He wanted to find out more about what was going on between Kagome and Bankotsu.
"Oh, Kagome needed a break from walking. So she decided to come over here."
"Kagome? Big brother, who's Kagome?" Jakotsu asked.
"Don't start with me Jakotsu," Kagome warned him.
"Wench," he mumbled under his breath.
"I heard that," Kagome yelled.
"You were supposed to," Jakotsu yelled back.
"Gay cross dresser."
"wench."
"Man whore."
"Wench."
"Retarded freak."
"Wench."
"Is that all you can call me?"
Jakotsu wanted to say some other things but he had a feeling he shouldn't say anything to his to-be sister-in-law He was confident that Bankotsu and Kagome did love each other.
"Well…"
"sorry."
Kagome looked at him like he was crazy.
"Why are you giving me that look. Can you stop. Its starting to creep me out."
Kagome was beyond shocked. She expected more like, "cut out that look or I will cut off your head" or "look at me one more time with those eyes and I'll rip them out" or some other kind of threat.
Kagome widened her eyes.
"Stop staring at me like I am crazy."
"You are."
"That's enough."
Kagome really expected a rude comment this time. Since she didn't get one. Kagome widened her eyes more.
Jakotsu sighed.
"Are we going to the garden or what?" Suikotsu asked.
"Yea lets go, Kagome needs her break," Bankotsu said.
Everyone followed him including Kagome.
Kagome walked into the field with everybody else.
"Isn't this soo beautiful Bankotsu."
She ran and started spinning inside the field.
Bankotsu couldn't help but watch her.
Suikotsu walked closer to Kagome and cleared his throat.
"So you and Kagome have been spending some time together," Suikotsu stated.
"I guess…
"Bankotsu look," Jakotsu called out. "Doesn't this flower look so pretty in my hair?" It was a white lily. Jakotsu touched the flower in his hair. "And I thought this flower would look really nice in Kagome's hair. He held up a light pink flower.
Kagome stopped spinning.
"Oh Kagome, thanks for not spinning right now. Won't this flower look lovely in your hair? I picked it up from the bunch of flowers growing over there." He pointed to his left. "I'll put it behind your ear for you." He moved her face to the left.
Jakotsu found that there was already a flower there.
"Oh hey, is that a forget-me-not?" "I bet Bankotsu was there with you when you found it. That means you'll remember him forever. Right?"
Kagome nodded.
She saw Bankotsu looking her way and she blushed.
Jakotsu saw it.
So they do like each other. I knew it.
"Hey big brother, look at these roses I found," Renkotsu said.
"I think its beautiful, don't you?"
Everyone looked at him.
They didn't expect Renkotsu to be a flower-lover.
Bankotsu broke the silence.
"Okay, its time to go. Where's Ginkotsu?"
"Over there, eating a flower," Suikotsu said.
They all looked over at him.
"Gesh."
"Lets go Ginkotsu," Renkotsu called.
They were already leaving.
