\\The room Kagome is staying in//
***************************************
After Sasami had left and bid Kagome good nights rest, Kagome had decided to get out a pair of silky purple pajamas and her alarm clock. She got changed and then plugged in her alarm clock, as the clock was blinking 12:00 am in red, she had gone to make her futon up for bed. Kagome had walked back over to the alarm clock and set the current time to 8:30 p.m. exactly, and then set her alarm to 7:30 a.m. this would give her a good 12 hours sleep. Most would think that 12 hours would be too much sleep, but running around in Feudal Japan with a half human, half dog demon, a perverted monk, a cowardice little talking flea, a demon exterminator, a little talking fox boy, and a weird, but cute cat creature, looking for the shards of a mysterious jewel. Not to mention fighting of other crazy, scary, mad demons also searching for the shards, and not to mention a dead priestess that is tormenting her and Inu-Yasha, doesn't leave much time for sleep or rest. Kagome yawned and sighed, then crawled into her futon and instantly fell to sleep.
************************
\\Upon the rooftops//
************************
"I still haven't told you my name yet you know." said the young girl
"I ain't got time for that now, to many people where looking, I don't want to draw attention to my self." said Inu-Yasha jumping roof top to roof top
"Just tell me when you see your house." he said
"Oh, okay." she said sort of sadly
"Don't start getting emotional on me!" Inu-Yasha said sounding sort of guilty
She didn't say anything, she just held tight to Inu-Yasha. After a minuet or two she had stopped Inu-Yasha and pointed her apartment on the 7th floor of a 20 story building.
"That's it right there, do you see it Inu-Yasha?"
"Yeah I see it, hang on, this is a far one." said Inu-Yasha as he leapt at least a good 200 yards and landed on a patio on the outside of her apartment.
She had gotten down from Inu-Yasha's back and unlocked her sliding door and walked in. She motioned for Inu-Yasha to come in.
"This is where you live?" asking a dumb question for once trying to start a conversation.
"Yup all by my self." she said
"I've been living alone for 5 years, after moving from a girls dormitory, after graduating from high school." "It's funny, I never thought I would leave the Hinata-Sou, I never thought any of us would leave." "But after Keitaro-Chan and Naru-Chan got married they moved to London, and Mitsune-Chan and Seta-kun got married as well, and those two and Sara went back to America, Su-Chan found her long lost brother and went to go live with him only Heaven knows where, and Matoko-Chan had joined up with her clan and is now the master of her dojo, and from what I hear, she too is married." "Thus leaving me all alone with Haruka-San, and on my 18th birthday, I decided to leave and get a place of my own and try and make it to collage to be an animator." she said sad and trying to hold back tears
"Well I have no clue who those people are, but they have some nerve leaving you behind." said Inu-Yasha trying to show some sympathy
"Well it's not that they are bad people or that they forgot about me, I get an occasional letter or phone call or email from them."
she said in their defense
"Well... anyway, mind telling me you name, so I know who I am talking to."
"Shinobu Maehara." she said
"Uh... nice name Maehara."
"Thanks, Inu-Yasha, but just call me Shinobu, okay?"
Inu-Yasha nodded.
"Well hand me your clothes so I can repair them." Shinobu kindly asked
Inu-Yasha handed her his top clothing pieces, she had shown him to the living room and told him to wait there while she prepared a meal for him. Meanwhile as she cooked, and sewed his clothes in between, Inu-Yasha had glanced around at his surroundings. He had looked at a few pictures, one was of a group of people with little name tags under each person, and the date and place it was taken. 'Keitaro-Sempai, Narusegawa-Chan, Kaolla-Chan, Mitoki-Chan, Mitsune-Chan, Turtle, Sarah-Chan, Shinobu, Seta-Kun, Mitsumi-San, Haruka-San, Sara-Chan.' 'Hinata-Sou, December 14th, 1994' and another was a picture of a big tree with three people under it and this label said, ' Oka-San, Otou-San, Shinobu'. Inu-Yasha kept looking around; he noticed some cute little statues here and there, and a tank of fish of all different colors and sizes sitting atop a desk. The desk had other odd 21st century Japanese stuff on it. He finally glanced upon an odd shaped statue, he was very curious as to what it was. It was a poofy looking ball... shaped... thingy. Inu-Yasha could smell something coming from it, but didn't know what it was. He decided to investigate, so he cautiously walked over to the 'thing' and went to poke it with his finger. But all of a sudden, the thing moved. Inu-Yahsa jumped back like a frightened child.
"Oh, I see you've met Nyanko, my cat." Came Shinobu "Don't worry, she won't bite, she is a nice cat."
"C...c... cat..t!" "You have a CAT!" Inu-Yasha exclaimed, as Nyanko, the cat was stretching and yawning from it's little nap
"Yeah, my mom and dad got her for me on my 16th birthday."
Inu-Yasha wanted to kill the cat, he despised cats, and after all... he was a dog.
"Maybe you haven't noticed... but I am DOG demon... and you know dogs hate cats!" said Inu-Yasha, trying to shoo the cat away from him.
"Aww, but Nyanko likes you, you can give just one exception this time right?" Shinobu asked with a cute tone to her voice
"But... but... well I will be leaving soon anyway so I guess, but if she scratches me I'm gonna devour her!" said Inu-Yasha trying to sound fierce
Shinobu just smiled and walked back into the kitchen, leaving Inu-Yasha and Nyanko alone.

"I just don't get it... why... of ALL the girls, would he have to choose her!" Ryoko growled as she lye on the wooden beam that helped support the house structure
"I mean there is NOTHING special about her!" "I just don't get it, dammit, I don't get it!"
"I'll just wait untill everyone is asleep... then I'll....... ehehehe." said Ryoko with a demonic chuckle as she fadded out of sight... with her eyes creepingly fading out last.
******************
\\In the Onsen//
******************
'This isn't fair!' thought a sad Ayeka
'It's one thing to compete with all these other girls, but now ANOTHER one!?' she mentally screamed
'I'd rather die than let her OR Ryoko, become Ten-Chan's bride!'
'I got an Idea... ehehehe.... I'll just wait untill everyone is asleep."
"Hey there princess." came Washuu's voice
"Hello sister." came Sasami's weary voice
Ayeka hadn't noticed her new arrivals, she just kept on thinking to her self... 101 ways to get rid of Kagome and Ryoko so she could have her beloved Tenchi all to herself.
"Ahahahahahahaha, that's what I'll do!" "Yeees, and he will be all miiiine!" "Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha" cackled Ayeka
"I think your sister has really flipped." said Washuu to an embarresed Sasami
"Yes, I can agree with you easily."
"Mya mya meeow." said Rio-Ohkie meaning, "Yes I concure with you two."
Ayeka had stopped her on-going laughing and cackling when she realized that Washuu, Sasami and Rio-Ohkie where in the Onsen. She had been blushing and didn't say a word from her embarresment. As Sasami played with Rio-Ohkie and Washuu did some calculations on her compute, Kiyone and Mihoshi had come in, and as usual Mihoshi was as loud and drunk as ever, from hanging around Nobuyuki, who was of course trying to get her in the bed, but of course as usual, Kiyone had made up some excuse to get Mihoshi away from perverted hands.
Things where quite... well minus Mihoshi untill out of no where came Ryoko. Everyone glanced at her for a moment, and then turned away to do as they were doing before. As Ryoko sunk into the water she looked over to Ayeka, Ayeka looked back. For minuets as life was going about, those two looked eye in eye, each thinking of ways they could dispose of Kagome... and eachother.
"Ahahahahahaha!" came the cackles of Ryoko and Ayeka as they stoped and looked at eachother
"Ahahahahahahahaha!" they started again, both unaware of eachothers deviouse plans.
"I really think we should run some test on those two." said Washuu not even glancing from her computer screen
"I really don't care anymore!" said Kiyone sinking under the water, hoping that when she pops up again this will have all been a dream
***********************
\\Shinobu's place//
**********************
"Well I'm done with your clothes, and dinner is almost done, so..." said Shinobu as she saw Inu-Yasha, asleep curled up in a ball on the floor with Nyanko by his arms (now if that isn't cute... then nothing is)
Shinobu just put his top neatly on the couch and got a blanket from her bed and laid it upon the two. She ate her meal and place Inu-Yahsa's plate on the stove, and wrote a letter saying;
*Inu-Yasha, this is your meal, you where sleeping, so I just made you a plate and left it here. Help yourself to anything in the place.
If you need ANYTHING, I'll be in my room, the door is open so just come in if you need help. Your Friend, Shinobu*
After that she had got dressed for bed and then said her prayers and headed off to sleep.
'I hope Inu-Yasha and I can become close friends... even if he does leave tomarrow, I know that this meeting was faited together.'
'I mean it's not everyday a girl like me, meets a DEMON like him.' 'I know he has another, but, being with a friend like him, that would be major awsome!' thought Shinobu as she fell asleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know... it's short, I am sooooooo sorry, I hope you can forgive me, I've just been soooo busy. Well yeeup the mystery girl was Shinobu, why Shinobu? I dunno, I guess she just seemed like the girl for the part. Well will this be an I/K, T/R, T/A, T/K, I/R, ooor.. an I/S x-over.... ooooor with my mind full of surprise, mystery, and suspence.... ya never know! Well R/R!
