Under the Pale
Autumn Moon
---
Inuyasha stormed down the staircase
searching franticly for Sango. There was no way in hell that girl was
going to continue to live in his room as long as he was living
under this roof. Plus that girl was totally unnatural... 'Like
me...'. He cursed himself for letting himself drift, he
fingered his rosary, the one thing that contained him.
He
slammed open a door and stood in the doorway, searching the room for
Sango. All he found were two maids making out. He slammed the door
quickly.
"This house is so fucked," he said to
himself as he continued to bang doors open. (After he knocked
though)
He continued to search rooms, sometimes banging
mercilessly for a couple of minutes until he felt a weight on his
head. Inuyasha's eyes twitched, "what the hell are you doing
on my head! Get off!"
Maids that were passing by
gave him odd looks like he was talking to himself. Inuyasha growled
like a dog and swiped at Kagome.
"Such bad aim for
someone of your skills," Kagome waved a finger at him, making
him growl once again, he was slightly confused about what she just
said but shrugged it off.
He backed away from the door and
moved forward down the hall, trying his hardest to ignore the girl on
his head, though it wasn't that easy.
Kagome yawned and
knocked his forehead with her knuckles, for being someone who could
turn translucent at will, she could hit hard.
"Damn it,
leave me alone!"
"Inuyasha?" Inuyasha jumped
and turned guiltily at Sango who has been sitting on a chair in front
of a fire, "who are you talking too?"
"You're
kidding right? Can't you see her?" Inuyasha said pointing to
Kagome, who whistled happily.
Sango raised an eyebrow, "You're
pointing to air, Inuyasha, are you feeling ill? Come with me and I'll
find a place for you to lie on."
Miroku entered the room
and heard the last bit of Sango's suggestion. With muffled
laughter, he hid his amusement through a series of coughs.
Sango
glared at him, "Miroku, stop being a moron."
"Sorry
Sango-Sama, but really, are you so desperate as to sleep with your
cousin when you have me?" Miroku asked as he flexed his muscles,
trying to look manly, besides the fact he was wearing a very girlish
apron.
Sango and Inuyasha quirked an eyebrow, "Really
Miroku," Sango said, calmly, dangerously calm, the kind of calm
before a storm, "I'd rather sleep with my insane cousin than
with you."
Miroku clasped his heart like he'd been
stabbed, "Sango-Sama I'm hurt, why would you do such a thing to
Inuyasha-Sama?"
Sango suddenly arose, holding her chair
above her head and chucked it at Miroku, who stood in surprise before
being plummeted to the ground in a large yelp.
Kagome cracked
up on his head.
"Shut up, it isn't funny!"
Inuyasha yelled as he pointed a finger at Kagome's reflection in the
side mirror.
Sango and Miroku stared at Inuyasha. Inuyasha
paused in his ranting to look back with an equally confused look,
"Sango, you can't see her?"
"Who?"
"The
girl on my head?" Inuyasha said pointing to Kagome who only
smiled in a smug manner.
Sango shook her head and got up to
leave, "Inuyasha, you really need some sleep, go to your room,
and I don't want to see you until dinner, understand? I don't like
you seeing people who aren't there! It's unhealthy, I understand that
you're a little depressed after what happened, but really, go to your
room, now!"
Inuyasha let him be pushed up the
stairs and shoved into his room. He stood on the other side of the
door, leaning on it for support.
"Am I crazy?" he
asked himself.
"Nah, you're just the only one who can see
me, congratulations!" Kagome jumped off his head and landed
gracefully on his bed, "We can be friends now!"
Inuyasha
banged his head against his wall and groaned, "No, no, no, no,
no, no, thanks to you my cousin and her perverted cook think that I'm
crazy. Why am I the only one who can see you, and what are
you? I want answers now!"
Kagome smiled sadly and
looked out the window, "A simple human such as yourself wouldn't
understand."
"Try me, there's a lot of me you don't
know about," Inuyasha growled, but wasn't about to reveal to the
strange girl that he wasn't all human.
Kagome sighed and then
opened her mouth, her pink tongue emerging to wet her lips. Another
sigh escaped her as she collected her thoughts. Should she tell him?
