Wow this one took forever.

This is a filler chapter, but it's pretty hilarious. It's mostly all InuYasha and Kagome. Read on.

InuYasha- Chapter 392- Peaceful Table

"Well this is unusual, isn't it?" Keade asked the demon slayer, in front of her hut. The sky was clear and crisp, a nice breeze blowing through the area. Sango and Keade were by a fence, Sango squatting and chopping wood with an axe. Keade stood next to her chopping stand, roping together the cut wood. "InuYasha being worn out I mean."

Sango recalled the battle with the crazed Toushuu, "He took quite a beating though."

"Ah…"

Kagome had asked InuYasha if he wanted to rest in her time, and he had decided he had nothing better to do. The two had gone through the well, to Kagome's time.

"It's a pretty good opportunity. Sango, it's been a while since you've been able to relax."

Meanwhile, a little ways away, Shippou's transforming cloud poofed into the air. "How's this Miroku?"

"Oh! That's incredible Shippou!" He stared at his exact double, leaning down to the hip region. He inspected it thoroughly, and then smiled. "It's exactly like me no matter where I look!"

The copy Miroku, (otherwise known as Shippou), asked, "What should I do?"

"Lounge around beside Sango." He closed his eyes and smiled again, saluting the kitsune. "I'm off to spread my wings a little. See you."

Smack.

Sango stood over the unconscious monk, a halved log in her grasp. Miroku lay face down upon the ground, a bump forming on his head. Sango had a popped vein upon her head; however her face had that of satisfaction.

Shippou untransformed, fearing he may be hit as well. "I don't know a thing!"

"I know that," Sango sighed, looking at the moron at her feet. What an idiot.

In the present day, Kagome and InuYasha had arrived at her home.

"What?! Mama you're sick?!" Kagome exclaimed, shocked.

Mrs. Higurashi nodded and mumbled an "mm hmm," before coughing behind her mask. "I'm sorry Kagome," she said with a muffled voice. She shifted under her blanket. "You've just come back after all…"

"It's ok! Go to sleep!" Kagome ordered, kneeling next to her mother's futon.

Mrs. Higurashi looked pale. "But what about InuYasha-kun?"

"Yeah," Kagome admitted, "he came along with me."

InuYasha lay in Kagome's room, upon her bed. He had Tetsusaiga tucked into his arms, holding it tightly with both fists. His face looked angelic as he slept, a few band aids upon his little puppy face. Kagome leaned over him, her backpack on her shoulders.

"Good, he's fast asleep." She stared at him with worried eyes. Well, he can't help it, right? He'd been injured pretty badly. He should have time to sleep until I get home from school.

As soon as Kagome shut the door behind her, InuYasha's eyes shot open. He sat up, using Tetsusaiga for support. Cracking his neck, he scanned the room for Kagome. Nope. Hopping up, he clapped his hands together.

"Alright! All healed up!"

Kagome's grandfather stood outside, gazing at his bonsai tree collection. Such a perfect day to admire the beauty of a small tree…

"Ah, magnificent," he sighed, smiling at the plants. "When I gaze at its beautiful branches like this, it feels as if my soul is being cleansed!" He closed his eyes, the air sparkling around him.

InuYasha jumped out of Kagome's window, landing feet first upon the shelf of bonsai.

Crash.

Kagome's grandfather stared at it with wide, teary eyes, tearing his hair out with frustration. InuYasha's nose danced as he ignored the old man. "That Kagome. Where'd she get off to- Ugnh?! Gueh?!" InuYasha clutched his nose, his eyes starting to spin.

The old man had started a fire, burning sacred scented sutras over a fire. He sat, bent over it, his face black with malice. "Uu ra mii haa rah sah de…my spell is on you!"

InuYasha leaned against the house, shaking from the smell. "Sto-o-p tha-a-at!"

He obeyed, stopping his rite. He grabbed a broom, getting ready to clean up the mess. "Kagome said that if by chance you woke up, you weren't allowed outside."

"Huh?!"

The geezer turned his head to the right, closing his eyes all smuggy-lectury like. "Do as you're told. Kagome is just worried…" He turned back to where InuYasha stood. But he wasn't there. "Ah! Hey!"

At Kagome's school, her friends sat around her desk, squealing at her over a boy, as usual.

"Oh, Oh, Oh, Kagome!" Eri said, excitedly. Obviously.

"You're still with your tow-timing boyfriend?" Yuka asked, afraid. "I wanna hear all about on the way home!"

Kagome moved her ruler about her desk, getting tired of their rants. "Sorry, today is kinda…"

After explaining, Ayumi asked, "Your mom has a cold?"

"Yeah, that's why…. I have to go home early and make dinner."

Kagome clasped her hands together as her eyes filled with dreamy sparkles. She could just see it now…

InuYasha will be there too. Sometime's he has to be given nutritious foods….

(Commence Kagome's fantasy mode);

She would be standing over the table, placing another plate of delicious food out for him. He would be holding his bowl out, chopsticks in his mouth for the hundreth time. The atmosphere would be sparkling with his admiration for her.

"Delicious! What delicious food!" he would say, surprised. He would turn to the side, wiping his eye of a stray tear.

Kagome would ask, "What's wrong?"

"This is the first time…since I've been born, that I've eaten a meal as glorious as this."

Kagome would hold her hand to her heart, touched by his words. "Is that so? Don't worry; just take your time eating, ok?"

"Ah I'm so happy," he would respond, the tears forming in his eyes. He would grab the whole bowl of oden, getting ready to dig in. "And this is such a delicious meal!"

(End Kagome's ridiculous fantasy).

InuYasha…Kagome thought, resting her head on her hand. She turned her attention to stare out the window. I wonder if he's still sleeping..

"Ah, that's too bad," Eri said, continuing the conversation from earlier.

Yuka sighed, "Yeah, I wanted to talk more."

Kagome almost fell out of her seat when she saw a certain half demon dart across the window.

"SIT!"

Boom.

Kagome got up and began to walk out of the room, going to find the retarded half demon.

"Kagome..?!" Ayumi asked as she excited.

Down the length of the window, InuYasha lay, imprinted into the ground. His hands were pressed into that familiar "love" symbol, his legs and arms outstretched around him. The soccer team watched in amazement and wonder as a very pissed Kagome pulled the pancake-like hanyou from the ground and dragged him away.

Near the tennis courts, Kagome finally stopped. "Oh you…I told you not to come."

"I'm not listening!"

"Just take it easy for one day!" Kagome said, kneeling on the grass next to him.

InuYasha squatted like a dog, itching his ear with his foot. "Feh. I can't hear you."

Kagome clutched her hands together and put on her best begging face. "Please, for me?"

InuYasha blushed and pulled back slightly.

Back at Kagome's home, InuYasha ran around her dining table. It appeared he was chasing his tail. Kagome's grandfather sat, the newspaper halfway in front of his face. You could tell by his eyes alone that he was agitated.

Kagome…please hurry back.

"She's late, isn't she?" InuYasha asked, heading out the window. "Should I go after her?"
The old man grabbed the hem of his pants, "Hold it."

"Nee-chan went shopping."

"Souta-kun?"

The little boy smiled up at InuYasha, "She's going to make something good for Inu-nii-chan."

"Food?!" InuYasha asked, a malicious smile on his face. There was a mischievous glint in his eye. "Okay! I got it!" He jumped out the window, and away.

Souta tried to beckon him back. "Hey! Wait!"

"I wonder if I bought too much," Kagome asked herself as she bounded up the temple stairs. She had three overflowing bags of food in her clutches. Once she got the house, she opened the door, a smile on her face. "Sorry I'm la-a-ate!"

A hundred pigeons flew up in her face.

Pigeons?!

InuYasha sat on the floor, holding two of the pigeons by their feet. One sat on his head, a few in his lap. "Hey Kagome. Hurry up and cook."

Her face was one of disgust. The pigeons?!

Two fancy-looking fish danced upon her floor. She dropped her bags. "And carp?!"

"They were swimming."

Souta stood to the side, laughing at the situation. "In someone's pond, right?"

"Put them back," Kagome glared at him.

"What? I went through all the trouble of getting them though."

"Do it for me please!" Kagome bellowed in a deep voice. Her head clouded over the man, her face shadowed by evil. Her eyes were wide, like a demon's, and demonic aura swirled around her.

"…Okay."

Later that evening, everything had settled down. Pots of boiling water and soup sat upon the stove, accompanied by vegetables and fish to their right. Kagome stood over her counter, proud of what she had accomplished. She rolled a tomato in her hands, shining it free of dirt. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail, an apron on her body.

I'm sure this will be wonderful cooking after all.

She turned to her side, "I'll be done with it soon, so just wait, ok?"

InuYasha stood right behind her, a pigeon on his head. He had a bowl of udon in his hands, noodles spilling out of his mouth. He slurped them twice in response.

Kagome ripped the bowl from his hands, causing him to fall over. "Wait for your food, idiot!"

He tried to grab it, but she kept him back with her foot.

"Why-y-y!?" he wined. They pigeon flew away.

Finally, Kagome had completed her mission. "It's made!" she said with joy. "Now all that's left is to arrange the food."

Her fantasy came flowing back to her, causing her to smile.

"Oh that's right!" she remembered. "I have to bring the okayu to mama." She placed the bowl of rice-porridge on a tray, carrying it out of the kitchen. When passing through the living room, she asked, "Souta, get out some plates?"

"Okay!"

Souta went into the kitchen, and began following his orders. He stopped when he heard a strange scratching from the cupboard under the sink. He ran back into the living room, going to tell the others of the horrors within.

"What cockroach?!" the geezer asked.

Souta picked up a magazine, rolling it up tightly. He pressed his finger to his lips. "Be quiet so I can get rid of it."

"A cockroach, eh?" InuYasha asked, walking into the kitchen. The other two followed him in. "I'll take care of it."

InuYasha drew Tetsusaiga, raising it high above his head. Souta and Kagome's grandfather sweat dropped. But it was too late.

In Kagome's mother's room, all she heard was;

Smash! And running water.

She ran into the kitchen.

Water sprayed onto all the food, soaking it through.

"You broke the water faucet?" Mrs. Higurashi asked, a blanket around her shoulders.

"Yeah, kind of," the geezer replied.

Souta was worried for his sister's sanity, "Nee-chan, are you ok?"

InuYasha's eyes were wide in fear. He didn't dare look at the girl next to him. Kagome's face was dull and scary.

"I was wrong to take my eyes off you, wasn't I? Isn't that right, InuYasha?"

"Inu-nii-chan became really quiet," commented Souta, later in the doorway of Kagome's bedroom.

Kagome's grandfather sighed, "Yeah and Kagome finally stopped moving."

Kagome had her head on her bead, resting it on her arms. She had her face pressed to her comforter, refusing to look at the man at her feet. InuYasha bowed to her Japanese style, his entire body shaking. His face was pale and scared.

Poor, poor puppy.

The wrath of a woman is sure scary, isn't it, InuYasha?
