AN: Ok, I realize that I'm not very good at getting my chapters out and most of my recent ones have been ridiculously short, and then i wonder why i don't get a ton of reviews. By the way, that you to all of you who do review and keep up with this story...I totally love you people. That's to Gelasia who's been doing some editing for me (though I haven't given her this chapter as of yet), you be great! I'm so sorry it always takes me so long to review, but things get so hectic...*sigh* anyway...thanks for hanging in there.
Disclaimer: For those of you who forgot, I don't own Inu Yasha...though if I did I would be ending the series soon. For those of you who love the series but have only seen through season one or two, you poor people have a long and grueling trek ahead of you, but that has nothing to do with the disclaimer. Don't own much, have no money *pulls pocket's inside out to show that she has no cash, not even moths come out of the pockets...the effect cost to much*

Game Start
"So, she left a perfectly safe life under the sea, with her family, to be with him!?" Inu Yasha voiced as King Triton sent a rainbow shooting threw the sky.
"She was in love with him!" Kagome bit back at Inu Yasha. And this was the guy her family wanted her to marry!?
"The guy's got a creepy fish fetish, who would want to be with a freak?"
"You have no sense of romance, no wonder Kikyo shot an arrow through your chest!"
By this time, the two were standing face to face and yelling at the top of their lungs about how 'THAT WAS A DIFFERENT SITUATION ENTIRELY, KIKYO'S NOT A FISH' and 'LOVE TRANSENDS ALL SPECIES!' (here Kagome received a large smirk from her grandfather) and all the while, the rest of the group watched intensely with a bowl of popcorn.
"Oh yeah, well maybe I'll just go back through the well and leave you with your sappy movies, how about that?!"
"Then I'll just be forced to tie you up again!"
"Feh!"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah!"
"SIT!"
Inu Yasha spit carpeting out of his mouth and glared at Kagome. But was soon glaring at everyone else because they had begun to applaud.
"That was very amusing, how did you get him smash into the ground like that?" Hojo asked.
Kagome sweatdropped then an evil smirk came over her face. "Obedience training."
Inu Yasha seethed. He had abandoned the idea that any man would want to sleep with her so obviously she couldn't be pregnant. But she was acting weird, he just couldn't put his...well...claw on it. He figured he had to get to the bottom of this one way or another.
"What the hell is your problem!?" The forward approach had always been the way he went about things like this.
Kagome was caught off guard and was suddenly aware that everyone was staring at them. She involuntarily flushed.
"I don't know what you're talking about" she barked back.
The hanyou clenched his teeth. She was being so stubborn and he wasn't about to say that Kagome was weird every since she fell asleep on him last night with her family and Hojo staring at them. He would just have to continue this argument in private. He glared at her, then sat cross-legged on the floor with his arms folded across his chest. He could be difficult too.
Kagome humphed, turned on her heel and stomped toward the kitchen. Why was all this happening to her? She just wanted to spend time with Inu Yasha and then it suddenly exploded into this...this...fiasco! She threw open the cabinet and grabbed herself a glass, which she proceeded in filling with water as violently as you can fill a cup. She quickly gulped it down and slammed it on the counter, nearly shattering the glass. With that she stomped back out of the kitchen and into the living room to be met with four intense stares (Inu Yasha sat in his same position, focusing all his attention on twiddling his thumbs).
Kagome completely forgot what she was mad about and started worrying about what diabolical plan was being plotted for her next.
"Kagome," started her mother in a suspiciously sweet tone, "Hojo has just been telling us that he and some of your friends were going to go see Beauty and the Beast in the theaters ((hey, they did it in America, why not in Japan)) and so we thought that you and Inu Yasha would like to go with them since you've been watching so many Disney movies."
Kagome stared wide eyed back at her mother and then turned to Inu Yasha who was still too preoccupied by the movement of his fingers to look up at her. There was no way he would have agreed to this if she had asked him to go with her so why wasn't he throwing a tantrum now?
Hojo stood up from the chair he was sitting in. "We're meeting at the theater on third and Kanashi at three. Will you guys be there?" Kagome just stared at Inu Yasha's back as she answered.
"Um...yeah, sure." Hojo smiled.
"Well, I've got to be going. I'll see you then Kagome, Inu Yasha" and with that he opened the closet door and walked in. Upon realizing that he had entered the closet instead of exiting the house, he came out of the closet chanting 'gomen' as Kagome's mother showed him the front door.
As Souta and his grandfather exited the room to watch the baseball game in another room (which is code for 'make their way out of the sea of awkwardness that seemed to forever exist around the hanyou and miko') the two polar opposites were left alone to the silence...which was quickly ripped apart.
"Why did you agree to go?!" Kagome jumped at Inu Yasha's abrupt and, to her, irritating question.
"Why didn't you say didn't want to go?!"
"Feh!" he grunted in his usual sulky manor. Kagome sighed.
"Well, we can't get out of it now. We've got..." she glanced at the glow of the digital clock on a nearby table, "an hour until we have to leave. I suggest you reposition that hat back on your head." She commented nonchalantly, nodding to the discarded article of clothing. Inu Yasha eyed it with a look of disgust as Kagome walked to her room where she shut the door, flopped down on her bed, and let out a sigh that was the size of Niagara falls when it comes to waterfalls ((k, so that didn't make much sense...oh well)). She laid her arm over her eyes to block out the light because with all this commotion, she was beginning to get a headache.
A thought suddenly popped into her abyss of emptiness (in other words, her mind). Maybe going with Inu Yasha to this movie was a good thing.
Inu Yasha stomped on the baseball cap after trying multiple times to position it in a fairly normal manor over his ears and failing miserably.
The thump thump of the hanyou's enraged pounding reminded Kagome of the headache that was most likely going to worsen as the day went on.
***Moles R Us***
Sango sighed as she put down the rock she was currently using as a poor excuse for a digging devise and sat back on her haunches. She was completely beat from massive amounts of burrowing through soil and they didn't even seem to be getting anywhere. They had informed their mole guard that 'he would look good in blue' that 'he could sharpen his spear on the bars' and she herself had even stooped to asking if he knew that 'he had the most interesting eyes she had ever seen'. The young exterminator was so sick of making distractions that when it was her turn to do so she simple slept. It wasn't like it really mattered because with the spear sharpening and new blue outfit he seemed to be creating for himself (he was quite the seamstress), he didn't even notice when they were going in and out of their little escape root. In fact, Miroku and Shippo had spent at least an hour trying to decide if it was a male mole demon, or a female mole demon but in the end they gave up and agreed to refer to it as 'he' for conformity sake.
Now, as Sango heard Miroku coming up the tunnel to take the next digging shift, she wiped the sweat from her brow and wondered how long this little project was going to take. That had certainly been digging for hours and had to be at least half a mile into the back of their cell yet still no sign of daylight. Course, they really didn't know how far underground they were or where in this maze of mole catacombs they stood. Sango was beginning to lose hope.
"THIS IS HOPELESS!!" she shouted into Miroku's unsuspecting ear. So may she had already lost hope.
Miroku sat down next to her and sighed. He too realized that they weren't getting anywhere, but they had to keep going. "Come on Sango, it isn't that bad." She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. "It could be worse. How about this, we dig a little further in this direction then try going a different way?"
Sango shrugged apathetically but when she saw the huge innocent grin plastered on the monk's face she couldn't help but smile. She let out a mock aggravated sigh and threw her arms in the air (as high as they would go without hitting the ceiling).
"Fine! But only a little further."
"Alright. Until then, I'll take over the digging," he held out his hand for the rock that Sango was using and she gladly forfeited the object. With that, they switched positions (which involved Sango slapping Miroku for touching her butt in the process) so that the monk could do the digging. He pushed up his sleeves and, grasping the makeshift tool firmly in his hand, began chipped away as the soil. But after a good two chips, he stopped, because what he was hitting was no longer soil yet stone. Sango blinked at his abrupt change in action.
"What's wrong?" He turned around and grinned innocently.
"I think it's time to change directions."
***Dododododo***
Kagome passed back and forth in front of her grandfather's bedroom where Inu Yasha was trying find socks and shoes along with reposition the baseball cap. He had been in there for twenty minutes and at the rate he was going, they were going to be late. She growled and stopped passing to pound severely on the door (poor door).
"Aren't you done yet!!" the annoyance was very apparent in her tone.
A faint 'feh' could be heard somewhere inside the room. The miko gave an exasperated sigh that made her mother, who was in the kitchen, jump. She banged once more.
"If you don't come out right now, I swear I'm going to break down this door!" but before she could take another shot at shattering the wood with her fist, she heard the lock click open and then silence. Though she was slightly shocked into this brief still, it didn't last long because she soon snapped out of her daze and was opening the door.
"Finally, it took you-" The picture in front of her caused her breath to catch in her chest. Inu Yasha still had the same pants and shirt on (which, might I add, were still incredibly sexy) but had placed a makeshift pair of shoes on his feet and had acquired a larger baseball cap that fit more snuggly than the last. He fidgeted under Kagome's stare but as he began to realize the blood rushing to his cheeks, Inu Yasha turned away and folded his arms across his chest.
"What's up with your people and footwear. It's stupid." This was enough to jolt Kagome out of her stage of admiration.
"I just don't want you to attract a lot of attention...and most places don't let you in unless you have shoes. No shoes, no shirt, no service," Kagome stressed the ever-familiar phrase to the hanyou with a point of her index finger directed toward his face. He stared at it cross-eyed as she moved it up and down with each word. When she had finally removed it from his line of sight he shook his head and snarled at her back as she retreated from the bedroom, the hanyou close on her tail.
"What exactly are we doing with these people again?!" Inu barked. Kagome turned on her heal and glared at his, which caught him off guard.
"First of all, these are my friends, not just some 'people'! And second..." she lowered her tone and turn back around to open the front door, "We're going to see Beauty and the Beast in the movie theater. It's another Disney movie, one of my favorite actually."
Inu Yasha dumbly followed her down the steps of the shrine and out into the street. "And where is this theater? Is it far?"
"No, not really. It should take us only a little while to get there." Inu Yasha nodded even though he knew Kagome couldn't see him. He examined his shoes while they walked along the sidewalk into the flow of people coming and going. He was going to meet Kagome's friend...he wondered what they would think of him...not that he cared (*sweatdrop*).
Kagome glanced back at the trailing hanyou. She couldn't believe that she was bringing him along to meet her friends. She had told them that she was going out with a bit of a selfish, jealous jerk but she had never really expected to have them meet Inu Yasha. She sighed and decided that considering the situation was already unavoidable, she shouldn't go nuts trying to figure out what her friends would think of Inu Yasha.
She looked back at him this time and smiled a little, slowing down to walk next to him. He stared at her out of the corner of his eye and was taken a little aback when she linked her arm around his and lean against his shoulder while they walked. She new this had surprised him from the sudden stiffening of his muscles but as the hanyou got used to it, he began to relax.
***Wondering what's going on back in feudal Japan?***
"I'm warning you, if you touch my butt once more, there is going to be one less person in this cell! I'll feed you to the moles!"
"Hee hee...?"
Growl.
***There ya go***
AN: Well...I don't want to make this chapter too long but I'm very happy that I made it to six pages (*sigh* even that's sad). I'm sure you'll all be very pleased to hear that I have a plan for the rest of this story! *sighs of relief heard from the readers* I never intended this story to be very long (you can only watch movies for so long) so I'm pretty sure that I'm only going to go to 11 or 12 chapters. And I have it all planned out! Yay! Anyway, I was going to go on to Beauty and the Beast but I figured that would make the chapter way long (and considering most of my chapters have been ridiculously short...). Anyway, I really hoping I can get my act together and get the next chapter out fairly quickly now that I have a game plan (now you get the title of this chapter). Well, thanks for waiting so long for this chapter and gomen that it took so long. Till next time, adieu!
Disclaimer: The author's 'adieu' doesn't really belong to her either but to the series Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne...which is very good, go see it. Oh, that the title is from that series as well.
Second Disclaimer: It has been brought to my attention by Crew_Hanyou that I have been messing up on Souta's name all this time. I'm soooo sorry. I'm really stupid, and it comes from watching to many fandubs (which by the way, you never heard me say, Hush). So, i will go back and work on calling Kagome's brother Souta instead of Sorta....*points to self* Me not that bright. And also, someone mentioned the Kagome pregnancy thing...in case I didn't mention it ealier, it was just a crazy random thing I through out there and had Inu Yasha think BECAUSE it was incredibly rediculous...so...just giving my actions so rhyme and reason. So, yeah, I think that's it. Thanks!
