AN: Sorry for the delay, I've just been feeling a lack of inspiration lately, but I seem to have gotten out of it. Remember to reveiw, they make my day!

Kagome smiled and laughed, attempting to dodge the snowball aimed precisely at her already chilled head. Unfortunately, a round slushy ball of ice bombarded her face, causing drops of melting snow to slide down her cheeks in waves. Her smile slowly left her face and her eyes became set with new determination.
"Take this!"
Plunk
Bankotsu frowned; he hadn't expected Kagome to actually hit him. The top of his head was now sporting a large chunk of ice that was sure to melt soon.
"You know, your confidence is going to be your downfall one day." Kagome walked up to the miffed mercenary.
"Hey!" Kagome once again made a feeble attempt at dodging, with the same outcome. At this rate, she would be soaked soon. Her black hair was already wet, sticking to her coat and her hands were numb, only a sensation of cold remained.
Bankotsu walked up to her, a cool smirk on his face. He was the victor, the pro, and he definitely knew it. "I have every right to be confident, judging by the way I'm beating you."
Kagome said nothing; a light frown marred her features. She tried to look at the wet snowflake that had landed on her nose, and managed to go cross-eyed as a result. Shaking her head, she looked up at Bankotsu, who was hovering over her, a large snowball in hand.
"Snow suits you." He commented offhandedly.
Kagome stared at Bankotsu quizzically. She blinked three times before laughing, causing Bankotsu to wonder if she was suddenly going to combust from too much laughter in her system. He dropped the snowball and walked over to her, who had fallen over from laughing so badly. Bankotsu raised an eyebrow, decided between his options. Should he attack, or should he back away slowly? Maybe he shouldn't have hit her head so many times…
"You're so cute!" After laughing for a few more minutes and seriously worrying Bankotsu, she placed a hot kiss on his cheek, contrasting with the chilling numbness of it.
Bankotsu sighed, perplexed by her antics. He knew she must have been trying to distract him from the fact that he was going to beat her.
"It's working…" He grumbled, earning a puzzled look from Kagome.
