What Two Little Kids Can Do
Chapter Five,
In the Hot Springs
~*~*~*~*~
"Aw, this water feels so good." Kagome sighed happily as she let herself sink into the hot spring.
"Yeah, I completely agree." Sango said quickly only halfheartedly.
"Hey Kagome-chan, do you have any shampoo?" Masako asked as she started to comb her fingers through her hair.
"Masako-chan, how do you know about shampoo?" Kagome asked her slowly.
Unfortunately for Masako her brother wasn't there to make up an excuse for her this time, so she just told the truth without even thinking about it. "My Okaa-chan uses it when she washes my hair, it smells really good, but sometimes it's a little to strong." She answered looking up at Kagome happily, but that look turned to horror quickly.
"Oh, do you know how your mother found out about it?" Kagome asked, now quite curious, but she had missed the look of horror on Masako's face, Sango however, hadn't.
"Oh, um, she, well she, um when I was little, she, well she... she said that a strange lady gave some to her and taught her how to make it." Masako answered awkwardly, hoping that they would by it.
"Okay..." Kagome answered not entirely believing her, but not being able to think of why else Masako would know about something that wouldn't be invented for at least 350 years.
"Masako-chan, what village do you live in?" Asked Sango, not entirely believing her.
"Actually my family and I live in a forest near Edo." Masako answered glad that she didn't have to lie again.
"Hmm," Sango responded still not really believing her.
Masako jumped underwater, completely forgetting that she didn't have those things her mother gave her to make sure that the water didn't get inside her ears.
"Kagome-chan who are Masako and Kawainu, and why are they here, not that I mind them being here. Oh, and what happened while Hoshii-sama and I were gone?" Sango half asked and half demanded to know.
"Well, Kawainu said that their village was attacked and now they're looking for something so that they can save their mother. Masako-chan thought that I was their mother when she first saw me." Kagome answered, not realizing that she had revealed more that she had wanted to.
"She did, that's interesting." Sango responded thoughtfully.
"What's interesting?" Asked Masako as she popped up from under the water between Sango and Kagome.
"Oh, nothing." Sango said deciding it would be better to question Masako when Kagome wasn't around.
"Okay, I'm going to explore over there." Masako told them pointing to the other side of the considerably large hot spring.
"Well, question number two: What did you and Inuyasha do when Hoshii-sama and I weren't here?" Sango asked her friend in a good natured voice but it was clear that she would go to any lengths to find out the answer.
"Well nothing really, he just started acting weird ever since Masako-chan and Kawainu showed up, he's been very protective." She answered not fully aware of what she was saying since she was comfortable and had begun to think about how she had almost kissed Inuyasha.
"Hmm, not a good enough answer, what's the rest?" Sango pried.
"Huh, um it doesn't really matter, he's just been kind of...sweet." She decided not really sure if that was the right word.
" 'Inuyasha' and 'sweet' in the same sentence didn't think I'd ever hear that, but the words 'Miroku' and 'shy' are even more unlikely, so I guess it makes sense, but I know more happened, so what was it?" Sango asked still determined.
"Oh, I don't know really, it's so confusing Sango-chan." Kagome suddenly exclaimed throwing her arms up in frustration.
"What did he do?" Sango asked suddenly letting the protective best friend felling she had developed for Kagome take over.
"Well, when Masako-chan said I was her Okaa-chan he accused me of mating with some one and I don't even know what mating is, but I guess it's like getting married. Then Kawa-" She said beginning her story but was interrupted by a small whining noise that was coming from the other side of the hot spring.
Kagome instinctively grabbed the jewel shards around her neck and then glancing over to where she heard the whining. She saw a large toad demon holding Masako's neck with one hand and covering her mouth with the other.
"Put her down now!" Kagome demanded not understanding this sudden protectiveness that came over her.
"Or you'll do what human, yell at me." The toad demon snickered darkly.
Kagome got up out of the water completely forgetting that she wasn't wearing anything. She ran strait though the hot spring because it was the fastest way to get to Masako. Kagome's only thought was to save Masako, she had forgotten the fact that she was human, that she wasn't dressed, that she didn't have half an idea of what she was doing, and the fact that the Shikon no Tama was making her body glow.
"Let her go!" Kagome exclaimed through clenched teeth as she glared up at the toad demon who was now only half a meter away from her.
"I will not listen to a worthless human bitch like you, but if you give me the Shikon no Tama I may reconsider, other wise you will make a good meal." He told Kagome cruelly as he looked her up and down.
"NO! I WILL NOT BE YOUR MEAL, AND I WILL NOT GIVE YOU THE SHIKON NO TAMA, NOW THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE PUT HER DOWN!!!" Kagome screamed in his face her glare unfazed the entire time.
"OUCH!" Exclaimed the toad demon glaring down at the smirking Masako, who had just bitten his hand.
"Don't threaten my sister if you want to live." The voice of a small four- year-old boy said from behind her.
"Yeah, I agree with the twerp." Inuyasha told the toad demon smirking darkly at him as he jumped in front of Kagome and pulled out tetusigia.
"What would a half breed and his bastard son be able to do to me?" He said mockingly.
"One that twerp ain't my son, and two you don't want to know the answer to your question." Inuyasha informed him his smirk widening.
"Hmm, ashamed of the fact that you've mingled more with humans especially the nude bitch behind you?" The idiotic toad demon asked mockingly.
"No, she ain't my mate but she'd make a better mate than any you could get!" Inuyasha shouted as he split the toad demon in half with tetusigia glaring at his remains.
"Hmm, what happened here?" Miroku said slowly because he was out of breath from running. He soon forgot this when he saw Kagome standing naked behind Inuyasha, and Sango holding her clothes protectively to her body, but because he was behind her and she hadn't noticed he got a very nice view of her back side.
Unfortunately for Miroku Kawainu took no time in noticing that Miroku was standing there and made sure to announce the fact to the whole world.
"Oi, pervert, stop staring at Sango-chan and especially stop staring at Kagome-chan and my Onee-chan or else I'll kill you." Kawainu threatened, and Miroku was sure he could beat Kawainu in a fight, but he was sure that Inuyasha would be all to happy to help the younger demon.
"HENTAI!" Sango yelled quickly turning toward him and ducking down in a attempt to cover herself, but the glare she sent him would insure that he would be given very many bumps on the head later.
Kagome who seemed to be coming back to normal as her eyes came back into focus saw Miroku and automatically jumped behind Inuyasha, who in turn, gave Miroku the universal glare that said 'keep your hands off, she's mine,' this just cause Miroku to smirk knowingly.
"Thank you for saving me, Kagome-chan, Onii-chan, and Inuyasha-chan." Masako said as she gave her brother and Kagome hugs but Inuyasha just looked away and told her to get dressed because she had obviously forgotten that she wasn't.
Inuyasha and Kawainu jumped back over to where Miroku was and Inuyasha grabbed him by the scruff of his collar forcing him to turn away from Kagome, Sango and Masako so that they could get dressed. This of course got many complaints from Miroku but Inuyasha's and Kawainu's negotiation skill are so well developed that it didn't take them long to convince him to shut up.
"Okay Inuyasha, you can turn around now." Kagome said from behind him as she tried to hide her very red blush.
"Feh, what happened?" Inuyasha asked with annoyance and concern in his voice.
"Well we were bathing when I heard Masako try to yell, I was really mad when I saw that the toad demon was threatening her, but then I don't remember what happened everything just went black and the next thing I knew Miroku was staring at me from across the hot springs and you were there." She told him truthfully.
"You don't remember standing up and threatening the toad demon, or the Shikon no Tama glowing?" Sango asked slowly looking very concerned.
"No, I didn't do that, did I?" She asked Sango as she turned to look at her friend.
"Yeah you did." Piped up Masako who was being interrogated by her brother.
"But I don't remember." Kagome said again. This caused every one to go silent, especially Kawainu, Masako, and Sango.
