Inuyasha gaped at Kagome…his golden eyes wide and intense with concentration. Likewise, the young girl focused her violet orbs just as sternly upon the hanyou, her hand tightly gripping something resting beside her left knee, the object indecipherable. She snorted impatiently… her eyes beginning to water while she frowned at the immobile stone-like face in front of her. They had been like that for about 3 minutes now….completely silent and stolid. Suddenly Kagome's eyes widened as a spider slowly crept its way upon her arm and proceded in climbing up toward her face. The rather large nuisance crawled across her shoulder and Kagome twitched at Inuyasha's triumphant smirk…knowing he had won the contest. Suddenly and without warning Kagome jumped up as the arachnid made its way to her nose area "EEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAA!" She plucked the spider off her face with lightning speed and tossed it away. She rubbed her face as Inuyasha sweatdropped watching her stomp the spider about 50 times screaming 'I HATE spiders.." between each stomp. Inuyasha walked over to her after the spider was 10 feet under…"Kagome I won. Hand over the Ramen" he stated blandly as Kagome scowled. "Inuyasha!" she whined "We have to wait for Shippou, Miroku and Sango! I told you that already! And…" she muttered "I thought that staring contest would occupy you until they arrived…" Inuyasha quirked his ears forward and extended his hand "Listen wench I'm hungry and you have food." He paused and eyed the picnic basket grasped in her hands "the food…the food now Kagome." Kagome sighed…Inuyasha was just like a kid sometimes! So impossibly impatient! She darted her eyes around and drew the picnic basket behind her back. Then, as if with a second thought, she brought the basket forward again and Inuyasha smirked…knowing she had finally given in. "Here you are" she stated, handing him a peanut. Then put the basket down beside her and loudly stated "I think I'll SIT here for now while we wait." Inuyasha plummeted to the floor and Kagome smiled and continued. "Inuyasha why don't you SIT here and then when Miroku gets here he'll SIT too and Sango can SI---" Inuyasha scowled "I get it, I get it!" he shouted as he removed himself from the dirt. Inuyasha glared at her, the basket….then back at the stupid peanut in his clawed hand. He flattened his ears "Keh!" he shot her a glare while crossing his arms and shoving the peanut into his mouth "I STILL won though!" Kagome sweatdropped and nodded. 'Oh when would the rest of the gang arrive?!' she thought. Today was one day off from shard hunting..for once they would be able to relax..if they would only come soon…

"Kaaagooome!!!" Shippou bounced happily over to Kagome and jumped into her outstretched arms. "Shippou!" she smiled happily and snuggled her face into his soft fur as Inuyasha just 'kehed'. Behind the hyper kitsune were Miroku and Sango, walking side by side. "Hey!" Kagome yelled over smiling at her two friends. "Kagoooome!" Shippou whined and then pointed accusingly at Miroku "it was HIS fault we got here so late to meet you! We passed a village on the way and he asked EVERY girl to bear his child!" The kitsune cried to Kagome…and Sango nodded at his story. "Its true…." Sango stated matter-of-factly, setting herself down on the soft grass next to Kagome. "I however, took care of that" she said smiling and wiping her hands clean while nudging Miroku. He gave a small laugh in response "Yes…" he said nodding "the sole of Sango's shoe is quite a convincing argument." Kagome laughed at her quirky friends…she really loved them. "Well, lets have the picnic and relax!" Kagome said happily and went to reach down to get the basket. "WHA?!" she blinked "Where…where is it?" Suddenly Sango sweatdropped and pointed to Inuyasha and Shippou…both tugging on the basket's sides in the corner. "LET GO RUNT!"  Inuyasha said angrily.."I don't wanna hurt you!" Shippou frowned up at him and stuck out his tongue. "I despise you Inuyasha you glutton!" he said in retaliation "This is Kagome's food, not yours!" Inuyasha held onto the basket with a clawed pinky and then began to lightly bash the kitsune in the head numerous times with his free hand. "OW OW OW! STOP IT!" Shippou cried out. "INUYASHA!" Kagome shouted.."He's a child for petes sake!" Inuyasha considereds,shrugged..then began to pelt him again while the kitsune cried and tugged at the basket harder than ever. Suddenly, a sandwich popped out into the sky. "MINE!" they both shouted at the same time and grabbed the sandwich glaring at eachother while the rest of the food lay unguarded. Miroku picked up the discarded basket and he, Sango and Kagome began eating, Kagome being sure to save some for poor Shippou. "I don't see your name on it!" Inuyasha spat out angrily to the kitsune who was clinging to the sandwich for life. "Look there!" shouted Shippou back, just as angry. Inuyasha glared down and saw, roughly scribbled "Shippou" upon the sandwich baggie holder. Inuyasha frowned "You stupid, sneaky son of a…..." Kagome laughed at the two…..they would never learn.

The sun was setting as dusk approached. It was time for Kagome's departure. Inuyasha had volunteered to walk her. "Well, g'night Inuyasha. Today sure was fun!" Inuyasha nodded "Yea….stupid brat kitsune…" Kagome smiled "You'll never learn" she stated and went down the well. Inuyasha sighedd beneath the quarter moon. Though he would never admit it, he really did care much for Kagome. Her nature, everything about her was so perky, caring, upbeat. Maybe he even lo--….Inuyasha shook his head at his own thoughts, gripped his sword, and began to walk back, the moon light reflecting shadows that danced across his body,  manifesting many strange things, a smile almost evident on his always serious face.
