The Shikon Pendant

Disclaimer: I can't think of any creative way to say it…InuYasha and his friends aren't mine…

Author's rant: hey girls, don't u just hate it when a guy insults you; he says that you're not feminine? And then when you yell at him, he asks why you're so angry? I hate James…both of them…

Chapter 3

InuYasha followed his brother as they leapt through the woods in their human forms. Once they were far enough from civilization, both brothers changed into their demon forms. InuYasha's ears flattened as he growled angrily at his elder brother.

"Why the HELL did you come back?"

"That's not a very nice way to greet your elder brother, having not seen him for over a hundred years."

"Do I look like I CARE?! What kind of stunt was that back there? I can take care of myself!! I was just surprised!!" InuYasha bristled as he stomped around his brother.

"I was simply protecting my little brother." Sesshoumaru ruffled InuYasha's hair. InuYasha glared at Sesshoumaru, with mussed up hair flying in the wind. The scene was so comical that Sesshoumaru burst out laughing. Before long, InuYasha joined in. After a few more minutes of laughing, they both stopped to catch their breaths.

"I missed you. How is everything going?" Sesshoumaru said with a smile.

"The students get a little wild every now and then, but otherwise it's just fine." A moment of silence followed.

"Still miss her?"

"…"

"I'll take that as a yes."

"Shut up."

"Make me."

BAM!!

"ITAI!! You did that on purpose!!"

"Well, you did say 'make me,' did u not?"

"Why you little…" The chase began.

Nabiki typed rapidly on her laptop. "It says here that the two mysteriously appeared the way the are over a hundred years ago, and they haven't changed since then. They shared the same father, but had taken the surnames of their mothers in order to protect themselves from the danger of being associated with their father's surname."

"What kind of danger?" Akane asked.

"I don't know…it doesn't say…"

"Here, let me at it. I'll hack into the records of the government."

"How can you do that Kuno?"

"That's for me to know, and you to not find out Saotome."

InuYasha absent-mindedly swung his legs under him as he sat on the tree bough next to his brother.

"So, did you want to talk to me about something?" He asked.

"How successful has your hunt for Kagome Higurashi been?"

"She hasn't been born yet, has she?"

"She has."

"And just how would you know?"

"Because I found her." Sesshoumaru crossed his arms in front of his chest. "So there InuYasha." Sesshoumaru turned to face…no one. "Eh? InuYasha?" He looked up, then right and left, and then…

"Down here…"

"Eh?" Sesshoumaru looked down and saw his brother on his head with his arms folded. Sesshoumaru smiled. "Shocked?"

"No…what ever gave you that idea?"

Author's note: isn't InuYasha silly?
