AN: I hope you all had a happy fourth, residents of the USA! (And hey, even if you aren't from the US, I still hope you had a good one.)

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or the characters, I just like to mess with them.


Bankotsu drummed his fingers on the cover of the strange book. "What is this for?" He asked, trying to successfully read the cover.

"That's my history book." Kagome answered, not even looking up from her notes.

"You mean it has stuff in it from here?" Bankotsu questioned, the book suddenly sparked his interest. If only he could read all the huge words in it.

"Yep," She replied, again her eyes not venturing from her cue cards.

Bankotsu flipped the book open to a random page. "Does that mean that it has information about the Shichinintai in here?"

"No, people have never heard of you in my time." For the first time since Kagome had pulled out her textbooks an hour ago, he actually had her full attention.

"What?" Bankotsu shouted.

Kagome shushed him, "Calm down, Bankotsu."

"How can I calm down? People don't even know I exist!"

"I know you exist though." Kagome said smiling.

"True, and you are the only one who matters." He whispered in her ear, causing Kagome to blush.
