****Chapter 11****

Kagome was watching and snickering watching Kenichi get beat up by a woman with a rolled up newspaper. She had to admit though Shigure was skilled very skilled she could probably give her a run for her money but knew the woman couldn't hold a candle to Sesshoumaru. Think of the demon she couldn't help but wonder where he was and how he was and if he made it to her time, just thinking about him she reached up and fingered her necklace that he gave her symbolizing her status as a member of the west.

Apa noticed Kagome fingering her necklace and saw the shape and thought it was very beautiful but in his opinion the stone's color didn't have anything on her eyes. He was begin to wonder if she realized she was still holding his hand not that he minded it just made him think she enjoyed hold his hand.

"Kagome you said you were looking for a place to live and a job correct?" Akisame asked drawing her attention to him which he was happy about.

"Well yes I don't want to impose on my family for long and thought I would enjoy space of my own so Shippo and I can sometime enjoy time to ourselves and what not." She told him while smiling the she really did want a place of her own, but she also wanted somewhere that Shippo would be able to drop his illusion and not have to worry about anyone seeing him.

"You also said you had medical training plus being taught the full practice of a miko?" he asked again he was already thinking of asking her if she would be interested in working for him knowing with the skills she was trained with as a miko she would make a excellent helper for him and Kensei in their offices.

"Well yes I took all the classes and passed with almost perfect scores all I needed to do was take the test and I could either be a nurse or a doctor's aide." She told him wondering why he was asking.

Hearing that all she needed was to take the test to work Akisame got really happy knowing he knew a few that were on the medical board he knew he could ask a favor and have a test sat up for her to take but decided not to say anything yet wanting to know what see would say to him offering for her to work for him.

"Well Kagome I happen to own a bone sitting clinch am always looking for help if you would be interested but you would have to take the test first and pass it before I could actually let you work but I think you would be a wonderful helper." He said seeing the look of happiness on her face he mental patted his self on the back and if she did work for him it would give him more time to spend with her.

Apa couldn't help but be happy at the thought of Kagome working with Akisame if she worked for him, he would see her more often and get to spend more time with her and really get to know her he was hoping she would say yes.

Kagome was a little bit shocked yes she knew it wouldn't be hard for her to past the test but knew all the tests had been done and she would have to wait another month or two before they did their testing again. She figured she could till then try and work as a teacher's aide till the test come back around it wouldn't be a long wait. "Thank you Akisame that sounds like a wonderful idea, but I know all the tests have been done right now and I would have to wait a month or two if you don't mind keep the job open till I can take the test I was going to apply to become a teacher's aide at Kenichi's school then when the test is ready I'll take it then come work for you. Would that be okay if you really need help I don't mind you giving to job to someone else?" she told him still smiling at him hoping he wouldn't change his mind.

Akisame knew that since she knew the tests were already over he couldn't ask a favor to get her to be able to take the test, but knew a month or two wouldn't be that long and he saw her spending a lot of time here so he was okay with it. "That would be fine Kagome, and I don't mind keeping the job open for you at all and I am sure that Kenichi's school will hire you." He said smiling at her.

Kenichi lost his footing at hearing Kagome saying she was going to try and get hired as a teacher's aide at his school. He knew she would be hired in a instant become his school's teachers do need some help he knew of one or two teachers that had gotten sick and needed someone to fill in for them, one teacher was pregnant and needed to leave for doctors orders. But he really didn't want her around some on those people that go there like the ones in the karate club or the member of the eight fists. He was happy when Shigure stopped with him losing his footing and scurried over toward Kagome on his hands and knees till he was right in front of her.

"Kagome I don't think that would be a good idea I mean most of students at my school are really evil I don't want to near them what if you get mixed up in everything and got hurt?" he asked getting a little scared at the thought of her getting hurt.

Miu thought it would be a great idea to have Kagome at their school then she would get to spend more time with her. She was startled when Kenichi super crawled over toward them then started saying that he didn't like the idea and what would happen if Kagome got hurt. She didn't want to admit it but after hearing him say that she did get a little bit worried.

Kagome couldn't help but smile and give a little laugh at how Kenichi was acting but knew he was just worried about her, "Kenichi it is okay I isn't like I would be there long and I can protect myself so it will be okay." She told him while patting him on the head trying to show him it would be alright.

Seeing that they had finished training Kagome decided now would be the best time to talk to his sensei's about what she saw to help Kenichi with his training. Kagome just noticed she was still holding Apachai's hand looking at him and giving a small blush and noticing how much bigger his hand was than hers she took her hand from his still blushing, then sat Shippo down to stand up beside Kenichi after getting him to stand.

Turning and facing everyone hoping they wouldn't get offended when she spoke, "Um, I hope known of you get upset but while watching Kenichi I noticed a few errors in his stance that leave him open would you mind if I show him how to fix them?" she asked still with a blush knowing she had probably really just offended them.

Everyone was shocked but not upset they knew Kenichi had slight problems in his stance and they had all been trying to figure out how to fix them. Curious to see what Kagome could do to fix his stance they all looked at each other before nodding.

"Kagome if you think you can fix his stance you may try we all knew about it but was trying to find a good way to fix it." Kensei told her really interested in what this young woman could do not many could see the problem in his stance, but for her to have found it after only just watching him he knew she was an incredible fighter.

Apa was finding more and more to like about this small woman he had watched her blushing when she saw that they were still holding hand but didn't she didn't jerk away but eased her hand out of his hand still blushing as she did. He knew she was a skilled fighter just by how she defended Kenichi but didn't think she would notice that Kenichi needed help on his stance. She even offered to help fix it and thought she was going to offend them; he had to admit watching her blush was making him think of what she would look like sitting of his lap with less clothes on while looking up at him while shyly blushing. He shook his head trying to clear those thoughts away but had to admit that those pictures looked so good but knew he couldn't think like that or he would have to leave before someone noticed.

Kagome couldn't help but be relieved that they didn't get upset and turned to her cousin looking him over she grabbed his shirt and pulled him a little ways from porch where everyone was sitting and watching. "Okay Kenichi get into your stance for me please." She said while smiling she always noticed that his stance was one used for karate while he stood there she circled him looking him from top to bottom. When she came to stand in front of him she wasn't smiling, "Okay Kenichi while you are in that stance I want you to lower right arm till it is almost centered with your lower ribs." She told him while looking at him.

Kenichi couldn't believe what he was hearing and dropped his arms while looking at his cousin, "Kagome I think my sensei's are better at teaching me how to fight than you are." He told her not wanting to hurt her feelings.

"Oh are you sure about that?" she said with a grin on her face, "Shippo will you come over here for a second sweetie?" she asked her son never looking away from Kenichi.

Shippo ran to his mama knowing he was going to enjoy this, his mama didn't like him to fight but she still taught him and he knew it would take time till he could fight his mama on her level but he knew what she was wanting him to do to Kenichi and he would enjoy it. Kenichi shouldn't think his mama didn't what she was talking about and he would show anyone and everyone that his mama was the best.

"Yes, mama?" he said coming to stand beside her.

"Alright Kenichi if I don't know what I am talking about you won't have any problem fighting Shippo here now would you?" she asked knowing she had just shocked everyone by what she had asked her cousin to do.

"Kagome! No I won't fight him, he could get really hurt and I don't want to hurt him." Kenichi said

Giving a evil chuckle while looking at Kenichi she couldn't help it, it was just too funny she knew Shippo could beat Kenichi right now just because of the way his stance was so no she wasn't worried that he would hurt Shippo.

"Kagome no." he told her again while turning to walk back to the others. So if didn't notice the gleam that entered Kagome's and Shippo's eyes, but everyone else did.

"Kenichi, sole disciple of Ryozanpaku I Shippo Higurashi challenge you to a fight between disciples." Shippo said while standing in front of his mama with his arms crossed.

Everyone froze when Shippo said that especially Kenichi knowing he could not turn down a challenge of disciples. He turned and looked at his cousin and her son and finally saw the gleam in their eyes and knew there was no way out of it, but still looked to his senesi's hoping one of them would say something but saw the looks on their faces and knew he would have to accept Shippo's challenge.

"Fine Shippo I will fight you but please don't get mad when you can't do anything." He said while turning to look at Kagome and Shippo and seeing the look on both their faces wishing he hadn't said anything just then.
