Slippery Suds

Lady Nefertiti

Summary: Just the scent of her. Curious even….

A/N: another fic to add to my 'Sticky Situations collection' as usual list can be found on my profile page and I don't own Inuyasha of course ;) thanks.

Oh and for this fic I used the generic 'soap' word. I'm not labeling a brand name or anything and don't forget to review!

Chapter 1: Losing one's Sanity over various reasons...

Soap: a substance used with water for washing and cleaning, made of a compound of natural oils or fats with sodium hydroxide or another strong alkali, and typically having perfume and coloring added.

Uses for soap:Many but mostly Cleaning (usually for oneself)

Directions:remove wrapping, lather on skin and wash with water. Repeat if needed. Store in a cool, dry place. (keep item safe-especially if taking it to another era/time)

Warnings:External use. In case of eye-contact flush with water. if ingested call poison control. Keep out of reach of children-and of course curious dog demons named Sesshomaru.

-Future- (Kagome's home)

A black, green and red image could be seen dashing, running about very fast about Kagome's home words barely inaudible. Grandpa and Sota were watching this sitting in the living room. Sota was watching wondering how Kagome was moving so fast, Grandpa was telling her to slow down or she'd get hurt.

Her mom was sighing looking at Kagome rush past her while she was cutting vegetables in the kitchen. She heard Kagome say, "Well I can't believe the nerve….." and "It's not like I'm just an…" and also "how many times has Sango and Miroku….." as Kagome zipped by her and up the stairs something about needing to pack more panties since they would be going west this time. Why that certain item though? Was her mom's thought.

For Sango (since they probably didn't wear any at the time) were there more girls added into the tachi? She knew about that 'Kikyo' girl Kagome mentioned and also a girl named Ayame and also a little girl named 'Rin' that followed around Inuyasha's half-brother Sesshomaru.

-Upstairs-

CRASH!

"Owww!" a voice called- from a pile of clothes atop her.

"Kagome! Are you okay?" Sota came running up and into her room. She was sitting on the ground in front of her closet and rubbed her head-pushing clothes off of her head-glaring at the closet pointing at it rudely like it was evil muttering she'd 'sit' it to hell gladly if it was Inuyasha. Sota still had to hold back a laugh and swallowed it, coughing and looking elsewhere.

"Sota..What..is...it?" Kagome said still not looking at him and still staring at the closet as if it would jump out and attack her…again. Well fine then! She, Kagome would be ready this time!

'…'

"I was well….I just wanted to see if you were okay….uhhm yeah." Sota said and scratched his head with a sheepish (embarrassed) expression and walked off, hands in his pockets and down the stairs not before hearing his sister say (from her room on the ground) "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT INUYASHA!"

'….'

"I think she's losing her very sanity." Sota said sighing and shaking his head.

-Back in feudal times (With Inuyasha)-

As usual he was sitting in his cross-legged position by the bone-eaters well in the clearing, arms crossed and eyes closed. His ears twitched as he thought he heard his name from the depths of the well. Couldn't be.

"Shall I be the one to beat some sense into him?" Sango asked Miroku in a whisper. She raised her boomerang in emphasis. It was newly 'cleaned' and 'sharpened' you could say to 'smack' sense into Miroku, Inuyasha and other men who agitated her. It was also very useful for enemies too.

'….'

A little fox jumped onto the top of the boomerang and gazed down into Sango's purple eyes with a sad look. "It's always Inuyasha's fault Sango! He always makes Kagome-mama run off in tears! This time we are going west! You know how Sesshomaru-sama is too! It always 'irks' him when Kagome-mama is upset for some unknown reason. Something about how women should not be mistreated and hurt etc….curious even." He said with a thoughtful look and jumped down to give Inuyasha an evil look of how it is all his fault.

Inuyasha's eyebrow twitched as he heard Shippo mumble something about (him) Inuyasha. Kagome was 'rubbing off' on this kit-all of his habits and expressions. Too bad he was too far away that Inuyasha couldn't give him a good beating…..

Perhaps that wasn't the real reason Inuyasha was agitated though. They were going west and had to stay in the palace for a while-and he did NOT want to stay in Sesshomaru's palace. Maybe he'd camp out in the woods. Yeah that's what he'd do. He could protect himself for a few nights. Make his own shelter. Gather water. Hunt for food etc….great. He sounded like a caveman.

What did Kagome call him one time? Hmm….. "Tarzan?" was it? Inuyasha wondered who that person was.

-Back to Kagome- (Future)

She sat on the ground not paying attention that she looked rather cute with clothes all around her, a shirt that had floated on her head like a hat-good thing she wasn't injured. She stood up-a woman on a mission and headed to the bathroom. There were certain items she had bought and left in the bathroom. She remembered that Sango had said she needed some feminine items, along with panties and scented soap. Cherry Blossom was Sango's favorite.

Kagome had also remembered to pack unscented for the boys. Even her little Shippo needed a good scrub. She smiled as she grabbed the bars of soap and made way towards her yellow backpack which was lying deflated for now (until she packed countless ramen and other things) on her bed. Poor thing. Seemed like it needed replacing. It'd seen better days. Too bad there was no place she could plug her hair-dryer…handy item. She laughed inwardly remembering Inuyasha's face and panic when she'd brought it and shown it to the group.

Ha! Like it was a dangerous weapon. She couldn't even turn it on. He'd jumped into the highest tree and looked at her from behind the leaves and told her to take it back home right now! He hadn't been scared! Not at all! She sighed looking at it in her hand and wondered when they'd develop plugs and electricity in the past.

But one would ask: Why had Kagome started pulling things from the top of her closet anyway?

-Back to Feudal times-

Sango was watching Inuyasha from behind the tree like a predator itching to hit him with her boomerang, unlike her calm and composed manner when it came to her friends. Inuyasha was a special case. His eyes might be closed but the way his ears were 'moving' he definitely knew what was going on around him.

"Lady Sango. Why don't we wait at Kaede-san's for lady Kagome to come back home. We can have tea sit and plan on how and what to do in/at Sesshomaru-sama's palace. He might keep humans, monks and slayers in his employ but it IS a palace of demons. They probably won't take kindly to us even if we are Sesshomaru's guests."

In truth, he too was worried and also hoped Inuyasha wouldn't cause anything to anger Sesshomaru. Miroku sighed and shook his head. He was just asking for a fight-or be killed. He knew that Sesshomaru had a reputation in western demonic court-and to have his own brother make him look bad….well that wouldn't be very good (to say it an in easy way).

"But…Okay fine. I guess." Sango said and bit her lip. She'd 'do away' with Inuyasha later. She sighed and hoped Kagome would be back soon. She'd left a few days ago. Usually Inuyasha always ordered that she return as soon as she went. Like in an hour or two. But this time he'd oddly been silent about it and just told her to be on her way.

-With Sesshomaru- (on his way to the bone-eaters well/Kaede's village)

He hadn't wanted to leave Rin behind in the palace while he went to the old lady Kaede-san's place but this time it was important that he speak to the inu-tachi alone, by himself. His late father-Inu-Taisho had told him to treat Inuyasha as a brother and look after him since he too was alone-they were blood after all. And the fact that he hadn't a mate to look after him.

It'd been two years. He originally had thought the little Miko, Kagome-sama WAS his mate but that wasn't so. The way Inuyasha treated her didn't sit well with him. 'Wench, shard-detector, Copy of the original,' amongst other degrading remarks. It didn't sit well with him at all….It appeared as though that certain importance Inuyasha hadn't gotten/learned from father.

Inuyasha had gotten most if not all of father's love though…..

In a way he was glad Kagome-sama had that 'sit' command, amongst a mouth usually women in this era wouldn't dare to speak to men/males in this time. He had learned that she was from the future-interesting really. How someone could time-travel to this era. He had first thought she was some sort of rude harlot with a big mouth-given the way she was dressed and told Inuyasha he should've trained 'his woman' better.

He shook his head and ran a hand through them. A smirk on his face now. Trained her huh? As if anyone could tell her what to do or how to do things. She'd even put him in his place. Shocked that she had the nerve to yell at him-even though he'd threatened her with death. Her blue eyes glittering with some unknown fire.

It was almost unsettling that she was so much on his mind if not most of the time…..

He'd arrived at the village and saw the slayer and houshi walking back together. Sango-sama had an expression that said she was unhappy about something and he heard her say-rather complain, "I just wanted to hit my boomerang on Inuyasha's head. It's not like he's been injured before." The houshi consoling her that she'd get her chance to hit Inuyasha as much as she wanted later.

'…'

What DID that houshi see in her? No really?

So Kagome-sama was back in her era. Inuyasha had probably said something to upset her….again. He wondered when she'd be back. She was the main reason he'd come all this way. He could've just sent a few soldiers here. He wasn't looking forward to having the tachi stay at his palace-knowing his 'little brother's behavior.

WHOOSH! As something came crashing down at Sesshomaru from above…He sighed and just moved to the right side.

CRASH! and said person hit the ground on his stomach like a pancake. He jumped back up and "Ha! I knew I sensed you coming this way!" Inuyasha said and pulled out his sword 'flinging' it here and there.

Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow and said, "Indeed. It is good to see you as well little brother." If he did THAT in the palace-his soldiers, Guards or the General of the Army, Sakyo were going to kill him. Pulling swords out just for fun in court was a no-no.

He sensed people come running from behind him and hoped it was Kagome come to 'sit' Inuyasha but it was just the slayer and the monk. He knew it. These three….no the whole tachi were going to give him a headache once they got to the palace.

"Inuyasha! Please refrain from killing Sesshomaru…..again." Miroku said voice exasperated. Really was this a demonic brotherly greeting? I'm happy to see you? huh?

"SIT!"

(BOOM!)

"$#$%$# $#*^&$#$# !"

"Ah lady Kagome is back." Miroku said with a grin. Now this was going to be fun…..

Lady Nefertiti: What does this have to do with soap? I'll get around to it lol….I've been away from my computer for a while but I'm back ;) Anyway, please read and review! thanks.
