Alright. Here we have Challenge X. X as in the roman numeral for ten.

I'ma do something special, by returning to my roots in FanFiction. My roots stemming from the Inuyasha franchise. As much as I like to see x-overs, mainly involving Naruto. This, however, t'will not be so.

Challenge X: An Inuyasha fic.

Rating: M

Genre: Adventure/Romance (Fantasy).

Pairing: Sesshoumaru x (...Wait for it...) Kagome! (Seriously, if I could just meet her... I'd die happy.)

I'm not gonna give a real summary, more of an Idea I've had for quite a long time: So I'm thinking that this'll take place after Kikyo dies in 'The Final Act.' (I have volume 1 on DVD, and Vol. 2 on Itunes.) After seeing Inuyasha grieve for the undead's death, Kagome flee's. Heading towards the well. Just before getting there, she can be attacked. Or she could find a somewhat injured Sesshoumaru.

If attacked, he could save her. If he is found injured, she will heal him (Being the selfless person that she is... Like a certain Ninja we all know.). From there, I'm torn. Despite mulling this over for the past six years, I never really got that far in it. So from there it would be up to the author. But the end goal would be the two falling in love.

I'll admit that for a long ass time I hadn't kept up with Inuyasha. And I haven't read many fics about it lately. I was happy to find 'The Final Act Vol. 1' at Best Buy. And I was even happier to find Vol. 2 on Itunes. So once I get the chance to actually watch them, I'll probably get started on my own fic.

Rules Time! Yay! Zippity Doo Dah!

1: Most importantly besides the two getting together, is Sesshoumaru's Character. He has always been a Hardass. Cold, Calculative, and Blunt. I will probably never see another Character EVER be as blunt as 'The Killing Perfection.' Now that doesn't mean he can't be kind. He does, after all, show a bit to Rin. But he can't be all 'Unicorns and Daisies.' He can show affection to those who are close to him. But still needs to be a BADASS. (Sephiroth has nothing on the Badass that is Sesshoumaru. No disrespect to The Great Sephiroth. Sesshoumaru himself is off the charts of Badass, he has created a league of his own in the Badass Department.)

2: Lemons. As with all of my other fics. A scene of Lemonade is good, EVERY NOW AND THEN. Not in every chapter. I'll admit, we live in an age where sex is damn near an everyday conversational subject... But seriously? It's getting old. Extremely fucking fast. As I stated in another challenge; I am not a big anal fan. I detest it, and I still think it would be painful for a woman. So no! NO ANAL! (Sorry. But I am set in my ways.)

3: We all know that Kagome is shown to be underpowered in the anime. (UP, much like OP, only emphasize the U as in Under.) Soooo... Let's change that! We all know that she is, IS, the most powerful woman ever. (Oh! I'm sorry Sakura. You may be able to turn a mountain to dust with a punch, but our Shikon Miko can infact reduce you to ash with a single touch. Lol.) Therefore, Kagome shall be trained. Not just with a bow either. I read a fic once where she used a sword. (Can't recall the name or author, but I might be able to recognize the summary.) I like swords. Granted I can see the use for a gun, but I like the up close and personal feel of a blade... Much more intimate, and civilized, than a firearm ever could be. (Along with my bare hands... There's just something about the feeling of crushing a windpipe... And watching the life slowly leave their eyes... Damn! I really have lost it! Lol.)

4: Mate Mark and Life Force Sharing. This is an old system, but I think it works. It's something I use. Sesshoumaru will mark Kagome, and she will have the same Lifespan as him. The science might boggle some people, but... Meh. Basically he bites her on the junction of neck and shoulder during sex. A tattoo appears, and through old magic she gains Longevity. Meaning she will not age, but they could still die from battle. (Like a Vampire, only she doesn't need blood to survive.) Of course it doesn't have to be placed when they are doing the nasty. The Horizontal Tango. Practicing Multiplication. Playing Mister and Misses Bunny. Making Lemonade... I'ma stop now... Adding to the tree!

5: Try to stick with the Canon Power Elements. A Miko's Energy can purify Yokai. And Yoki can poison Nature. However, with Willpower, those obstacles can be removed. Kagome can Will her power to heal a Yokai, and Sesshoumaru can Will his Yoki to heal instead of poison. This does not mean it will happen to everything else. Only to the two, or to Yokai/Ningen that are not evil. (Ningen is a rough translation for human. I think it actually means 'The People.' Much like how another word in a different language means The People, as the language is too old to recognize scienctific or general terms for humanity. Much like how we english idiots see Yokai as meaning demon. Not true. There are Kappa, and Oni, and so many other names for demons. We are just not bilingual prodigies, and therefore I refer to most who speak English as a Native Language are infact Lingual Idiots. It is a fact that English is the hardest language to learn, and we get so used to it that all other languages are just too damn simple for us to pick up very well, and we therefore lable it as hard... End of rant!) (I apologize if that offends some people.)

6: The Bone Eater's Well. A lot of fics I've read made it out to where she either stopped using it, or it somehow lost power. That is fine, but only at the end. And only if she get's through the 500 years to see her family again. It's overused, or so I've been told, but it works.

So there we have it. Challenge X. Will it be my finale challenge?... Hell Fuckin Nah!

As I stated, I had thought about this for damn near six years. Six. Fucking. Long. Ass. Years... And I still haven't really gotten anywhere with it. This Friggin Idea is what forced me to finally decide in making an FFN account. See where it has gotten me. Damn near nowhere. I'm still jumbling this one arround. I've scratched so much shit off of this, that I don't even know what to fucking do with it... Maybe I should just stick with X-overs. I do Ninja's much better than this. I may do a Naruto and Inuyasha X-over. with a challenge at somepoint... Ah well.

Dueces! Methos-Kyuubi777 is signing off... For Now...

I SHALL RETURN! And that is no threat... THAT'S A FUCKING PROMISE! (Guards start to haul me off stage.) I PROMISE TO RETURN! AND IT WILL BE GLORIOUSE! ALL WILL BOW TO MY GENIUS! (Sounds of fighting from backstage.) GET YOUR BITCH ASS HANDS OFF ME! I'MA HELLION! I'MA BE PISSED HERE IN FIVE! (Suddenly all noise stops as an announcer walks on stage.)

Announcer: We apologize for the display. Methos-sama is having a hard time lately, and is prone to random acts of shouting and violence. Please keep in mind that life can be a bitch, but it does not excuse Methos-sama from his violent tendencies.

Me: BITCH! I'VE GOT THE MOTHERFUCKING RIGHT TO REMAIN VIOLENT! I GOT SOME HOLLOW POINTS HIDING IN MY CLIP! COME HERE!

Video cut's out as gunshots are heard...

Me (Audio.): THAT'S RIGHT! FUCK YOU!
