Fluff? Detail? Got it. So here it is folks! Chapter 7! Enjoy and review!


Chapter 7: I'm your Venus

The last thing Kagome remembered were she and Inuyasha's terrified screams as they plummeted down into the hole in which the vine came. Shortly after falling however, everything went black. Comfortably snug against an unknown source of warmth, she cuddled deeper into it. That was when something slithered across her cheek. Instantly, she opened her eyes to see that she was lying n somebody's chest. Curiously, she looked down through the darkened area they had landed and could make out fluffy ears and the small glints of light from off of smooth skin. She had been lying across an unconscious Inuyasha.. Flustered, the girl sat up and blushed through the darkness.

"Um….Inuyasha…." Her hand wrapped around his toned shoulder and she began to feel her throat close up as the dimness wrapped around them. She felt him shiver from her touch before he stirred slowly. He sat up to make out Kagome's form straddling his hips. She quickly however moved from off of him and both of them blushed. Luckily it was too dark for the pair to notice each other. By the time they had stood up, their footing was sabotaged by the squishy floor beneath their "sneakered" feet. Kagome cried out in surprise as they both braced themselves up against whatever wall there was. She could feel Inuyasha's arm against her own. Something slithered across his hand and he jerked it up to his face.

"Something's crawling across my hand…"

"What is it?"

"I can't tell…" Kagome squinted in the dimness and noticed that the floor was moving. She screeched and a strand of grieve fanned down to her feet. Inside her, her mind instantly began to look at the odds.

'So this is what it feels like when you're about to die painfully and you know it…'

"Listen up Kagome. I might know what's going on right now." Came her "partners" voice. He sounded stern and determined that he had a plan. Kagome predicted where his face was and turned to face him.

"I'm listening."

"Okay. I'm going to attempt to get me lighter…-" It went silent for a second and she could hear the sounds of shifting clothes and jeans. Then thankfully there was that instant flick, and then there was light. The orange glow in his hand only brought for more terror. The 'room' they were in, first off, was "indeedidly" not a room at all. Infact everything surrounding them was pink, drooly, and fleshy. It also didn't seem to lack those killer plants. They scattered themselves in numbers and blotched the flesh walls with grace. It was almost like if the two had been standing in a fleshy, green shoebox from hell. Kagome made gagging noises and disgusted whimpers.

"Ugh…where are we?" Her response was a cool chuckle.

"Heh. I know where we are now…in a plantoid." The girl gave him a look.

"Um…there's a 'wee', little language barrier if you haven't noticed."

"IT'S A GIANT MAN EATING PLANT! GOT IT NOW! IT SUCKS THE BLOOD RIGHT OUT YOUR VEINS!" He snapped. Kagome gulped.

"So how do we get out?" Inuyasha looked around their surroundings.

"Million dollar question." His golden eyes fell upward to a pitch-dark tunnel overhead. "Well that's it's stem. Can't go up there." He shone the lighter back down and continued scanning until he found what he was looking for.

"Ah-ha! Found it!" Immediately, he flew on his knees to the left 'wall' least covered in vines and pulled off some lingering stems. Kagome made a confused face as he handed the lighter back up to her. "Hold this." Obediently, she took the lighter and watched as he managed to strip off as much weed as possible. Then things were starting to heat up. He unzipped the hoodie vest and tossed it behind him revealing the white t-shirt underneath. Not bad now. BUT, then that came off too. Obviously uncomfortable, a shocked priestess blushed madly.

"Um Inuyasha? What are you doing?" He didn't answer her right away but stuck his hand straight into the wall of the plants soft 'flesh'.

"Boring my way out of here. C'mere." He motioned her over to where he was kneeling. One hand looked sucked into the wall and he was using the other to scoop pieces of gut out (which grossed both of them out)

"Eww….what do I have to do?" Kagome made herself available and sat by his side. The shirtless hanyou was caught up in something.

"Wait a sec" He dug his hand in deeper until his entire arm was inside. Biting more than she could chew she leapt up from her seat.

"INUYASHA THAT IS FREAKING ME OUT!!"

"CALM DOWN! IT'S BASICALLY A MUTATED VENUS FLYCATCHER! THAT'S ALL IT IS! IT'S NOT LIVE MEAT!"

"we…ARE LIVE MEAT!" She roared back. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and continued feeling around in the wall. Kagome, in her crossed arm position felt her anger melt away as she looked down at the jewel around her neck. It was her gentle reminder to keep things together. "Okay, okay, we got to stop this'

"What." He didn't look at her

"This 'arguing'. If we're going to get out of this weirdness alive, then it'll have to be done together. Whattya say? Deal with each other for the time?" She smiled sweetly and declared peace between them like a peace treaty. It actually surprised her when he accepted.

"Fine, now get over here and help me pull this nerve" Without hesitation, she wrapped her arms back around his waist and began to pull along with him. Bubbling noises could be heard from the stuck arm. In the moment, the events played through a confused girls head. That was when the judgment and argument started battle in her head:

You know what? He's not as bad as he tries to look. He's a total softie underneath. Yep. I can see it…WHOA…my hands are on his abs…this feels weird…but yet, very right…this is interesting. sniffs unnoticeably and he smells good too! Okay, I gotta stop this right here! This can't go on! Mind begins to drift to somewhere distantooooh…and he so warm…and cute…WAIT A SECOND! KAGOME! BAD GIRL! It's not the time you bimbo! Wake yourself up!!

Her thoughts were interrupted when Inuyasha yanked out his arm holding onto what looked like a wet piece of seaweed. It squiggled like a caught fish and he instantly threw it behind them. Kagome pushed the squirming mess aside with the tip of her toes.

"I got another question."

"And what would that be?"

"Why would a plant have guts and nerves?"

"Evolution. That's my only guess." He said this as he continued digging a hole through the weed plant wall. Kagome didn't say anything. She held his objects in her hands and sighed with exasperation.

'This will take forever'

Actually, it didn't. With one swift tug a small stream of sunlight poured into the cramped plant stomach in which they were stuck. Kagome shielded her eyes and made her was to the hanyou's side.

"Help me make a bigger hole!" She nodded and began pulling at the pink moist wall. Of course it wasn't a mammal, but its fleshy body would confuse people other wise. The two finally made a hole big enough, and more sunshine busted through. Inuyasha slid through first and disappeared into the light. Kagome passed his items to him and his hand shot back to her. She grasped his warm hand gently and he gingerly pulled her out to join him in safety.


Kagome and Inuyasha stood side-by-side staring at a huge green zit in the ground with a gaping hole in it where they had escaped. The plant expanded and collapsed in breathing like pattern giving them the impression that it was alive. Inuyasha shock his head and slipped his t-shirt back on over his tattooed arm. Kagome took a deep breath.

"That was the oddest thing that has ever happened to me." She turned around to her partner who was just zipping up his vest.

"Feh.You'd be surprised." He placed his lighter in his back pocket and observed where they ended up. He could here the sounds of a road full of cars zip by past all the trees and overgrown weeds. In the tangle of small trees and plants where the plantoid sat he could see the stem. Turns out, the stem was stationed against a large gray steel wall. The wall back into Tokyo. Putting two and two together, it occurred to him that the plant was probably right on the opposite side of the wall that they were on. It must have smelled them out and burrowed underneath to get them. He turned back to her as she was wiping away a few stray vines.

"Kagome."

"Yeah?"

"We're in the Wasteland." Kagome watched him intently as he stepped over a tree stump and made his way closer to the road right besides them.

"Oh. We might as well start looking for that Naraku guy." Expecting approval, she was surprised when he snorted.

"As if! We're gonna have to get supplies first." He threw a smirk at her. "I know just the guy to go to. He can get us anything."

"Okay I guess…he sounds good."

"But there's a catch." That line drew her attention briskly.

"What kind of catch?"

"We need cold hard cash." His eyes linked with hers in a serious stare.

"And how exactly will we get that?"

"Welllll…" He looked away from her and began pacing in a flat space. "It's a bit dangerous…but it's manageable…" Impatient the female growled.

"Tell me!"

"Fine. But your not going to like it..." Inuyasha explained his plan for making enough money and Kagome's eyes widened.
