Chapter eighteen-all bad things must end eventually

Disclaimer: ^________________________^

Author's notes: I got a review asking why I made Jaken gay, and to tell you the truth, I have no idea why I did, part of it was that my little brother is obsessed with the toad man and I wanted to piss him off...and I'm serious, he made a poster that's titled 'ode to Jaken' with all these jaken pictures, it's disturbing!!!

I also got a review saying that it's hard to review my fic because it's good and funny, this is from Maiden of the moon, I believe, and just to let you know, a lot of the fanfics reviews are like that, but I totally love getting the reviews, because it encourages me to keep writing knowing that I'm making people laugh somewhere out there, (or next door, you never know!) so if all your reviews say basically 'it's funny update soon' I don't care because I know that you truly mean it because you took the time to review and say it, it makes me feel great ^_^

Kaede dusted her hands off as she dropped yet another tomatoes into the 'crème of kikyo' ((AN: Name brought to you by D.G. and crew)) and stirred it with a wooden spoon, the smell wasn't all that great and it reeked of kikyo and tomatoes ((AN: ooooooooo I wonder why...))

Inu-yasha scowled at the concoction, "Hag, does that thing have to smell so bad???"

"Hush Inu-yasha!" Kaede snapped, not in the mood to be making something so nasty so early in the morning.

Miroku sat peacefully still sipping that tea that popped out of no where and nodded his head as if forcing himself not to fall asleep. His eyes cracked open at the brief exchange between the 50+ year olds ((AN: Hey, it's true)) and closed his eyes after the grumbling of the old woman.

"Is it ready yet?"

"I need to add more tomatoes," Kaede said as she pronounced it 'ta-mu- toes'.

"You said it wrong it's tomatoes," Miroku corrected and said it as 'toe-ma- toes.

"No, it's tomatoes."

"Tomatoes."

"TOMATOES!"

"TOMATOES YOU OLD HAG!" Miroku waved his staff threateningly at the old woman as she held her spoon in a battle stance. Inu-yasha watched in mild interest before clearing his throat for their attention.

He waved a hand at Kaede, "you say Tomatoes," he waved his other hand at Miroku, "you say tomatoes, it doesn't really matter now does it?"

"Tomatoes."

"Tomatoes."

"Tomatoes!"

"SHUT UP!" Inu-yasha growled at the two closed their mouths and continued whatever it was that they were doing.

"..."

"So, Kaede-sama, is there anything else in this, disgusting, spell we should know about?"

"Why yes there is, Miroku," Kaede said as she flipped through Jaken's diary, "Says right here potatoes," kaede said as she pronounced it 'po-ty- toes'. ((AN: Actually I don't know how to pronounce it, she just says it in the English accent, k?))

"Ahem, that's potatoes," Miroku said as he said it in the American version instead of the English accent.

"POTATOES!"

"............"

"POTATOES!"

"POTATOES!"

".........................."

Suddenly Sango jumped out of the cooking pot, "potatoes, where!?"

All three adults stared then sweat dropped. Kaede pulled one out of thin air ((AN: she's special)) and tossed it to Sango, "Knock your self out."

"Well that's not very nice, hag, asking a small child to hurt themselves," Inu-yasha sighed as he fell on top of the futon, muffled squeals could be heard making him jump up again, the futon moved and Sesshoumaru and Rin could be seen sipping tea from a tea-set ((AN: don't ask me where they got this))

Rin smiled, "Sesshoumaru-sama says that tea relaxes the soul. He says that Rin should drink more tea."

-.-;;;; "Of course Rin," Inu-yasha said as he retreated to another corner.

"IT'S DONE!" Kaede exclaimed, all the chibis cheered though they didn't know why, as long as the hideous smell went away.

Inu-yasha sniffed the air, "god Hag, how much of those tomatoes did you put in there?"

Kaede sniffed, "they're tomatoes-------------never mind," kaede said as she saw the evil look that Inu-yasha was shooting her.

Kaede poured some of the foul smelling liquid into the cup and passed it to the first chibi near her, Kouga. The little bald wolf youkai looked at the cup then back at the old woman. Hesitantly he sniffed the cup and reeled back with a look of pure disgust playing along his face, "no way am I eating this!"

"Ye have to child," Kaede sighed, "or else you'll never become an adult."

"I don't care I-AH!" Kouga yelled as he was turned upside down by inu-yasha and he stuffed the drink down the young wolf's throat.

"YUCK!" Kouga yelled as he ran around in a circle searching for something to cleanse his abused mouth.

He stopped and clutched his stomach and he began to faintly grow. Kaede whipped the prayer beads off so that they wouldn't chock him, much to Inu- yasha's dismay, and threw a blanket over him as she ran to a corner and retrieved the huge clothing that he'd worn the day they'd found him and would now fit him perfectly.

After Kouga was properly dressed he sniffed around, "this place still reeks of tomatoes," he said in the American accent. Kaede was about to correct him but Inu-yasha and Miroku shot her a glare.

"Oi, dog turd, where's my woman?"

"Not your woman, wimpy wolf, and she's currently a child, so shut the hell up and leave!"

"NEVER!"

Inu-yasha picked him up and threw him into the river that was right outside the village ((AN: well it is in the anime, not the manga.))

Kaede scooped up another cup and began pouring them down the chibis throats.

~*~

Fifteen minutes later, Sesshoumaru, Naraku, Kanna, and Kagome were left. The bald Kouga hadn't returned form his river, Sango had transformed and immediately groped by a certain pervert, Shippou had hidden behind Rin, who'd transformed before him, Kaugra had run away before Naraku could make her sing the 'bun bun' song which he'd made up himself, Kikyo was dead, thank god, and Kaede was preparing the cure for the others.

Sesshoumaru had been sucking on his thumb for the last ten minutes and had refused to drink the spell, Naraku was too busy singing 'bun bun' song, Kanna was talking in riddles that confused Kaede, and Kagome was hiding behind Inu-yasha.

"Please Sesshoumaru, just drink it," Kaede urged the cup towards the youkai's lips but he turned his face away trying to look dignified, even though he didn't with the thumb in his mouth.

Narkau was hoping around in his bunny suit singing: "The bunny hopes over the rock, rock, rock, the bunny he wears purple socks, socks, socks, and no matter how he tries, his children always die, and he continues to wear his purple socks, socks, socks, COME ON SING IT WITH ME INUYASHA!"

"No."

"Come on I have a second verse."

"Oh god no-"

"The bunny's girlfriend got fat, and he would dance around like he was all that, he would stand up high with his mouth to the sky, and he'd DROWN, whenever it rained, rained, rained. THRID VERSE, TAKE IT AWAY INUYASHA!"

"No."

"Please?"

"NO."

"The bunny stood on top of a roof, and he didn't know that his fur was water proof, so he stood up high with his tail to the sky, and he died. IT WAS FUNNY!"

"......."

"And then he------------" naraku didn't finish because the drink was stuffed down his throat and they were soon looking at a Naraku with a bunny skirt, "......."

"......BWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" everyone pointed and gasped as Naraku ran away looking for his baboon pelt, currently forgetting it was burned.

Kanna was next and she soon left to help Naraku.

Sesshoumaru and Kagome both refused to drink the spell. Inu-yasha ended up tackling his brother to the ground and stuffing it down his throat, too.

Sesshoumaru nodded at Rin and began to stroll out, "I do not wish to let Rin see blood, next time I'll kill you."

((AN: HIS FIRST SENTENCE IN THIS STORY! *holy music plays as light sheds on fluffy*))

"You're welcome," Inu-yasha grumbled.

Inu-yasha looked at Kagome softly and gently pushed her near the 'crème of Kikyo', "Please Kagome, just drink it, for me?"

Kagome looked at Inu-yasha and smiled, "ok, for you, Inu-chan."

((AN: prepare for pointless fluff, requested by someone's review somewhere along the line.))

Kagome took at sip of the thing and licked her lips, "dANG THIS STUFF TASTES GOOD!" she said as she took the pot and chugged whatever was left of it. She glowed green and soon a fully clothed ((AN: I think ahead)) and adult Kagome stood where the squeaky voiced chibi Kagome once stood, she looked at Inu-yasha, "I'm back."

Inu-yasha laughed out loud and scooped her up into his arms, swinging her high above his head, looking up at her happily, he hugged her tightly, not caring about showing his affections to anyone in the hut, he was too glad to see his Kagome back in his arms, she giggled softly, obviously enjoying what Inu-yasha was doing. He rested his forehead on hers and looked deep into her eyes, "I'm glad."

The group had left Kagome and Inu-yasha in the hut, deciding that they needed time alone as they stood gazing into one another's eyes.

"Inu-yasha?"

"Hm?"

Kagome smiled lightly and rested a hand on his cheek; he leaned into it, as he sighed happily, "still thinking about kids."

"HELL NO!" Inu-yasha yelled, Kagome laughed and hugged him, he blushed and cleared his throat, "not yet anyways, maybe, maybe some other time, after I've gotten over this traumatizing experience."

Kagome laughed, and Inu-yasha smiled, he was glad that he could make her happy and he cradled her against his strong arms as she sighed deeply.

"You made a good father."

"Whatever, where have I heard this before, are you just playing on what I said to you?" Kagome laughed and Inu-yasha leaned his chin against her head, "but whatever you say."

"Inu-yasha?"

"what?"

"I like you when you're childrenish, but I like you more when you're not," she whispered. He clutched her chin lightly and lifted her head to meet his gaze, Kagome smiled slightly and he returned it.

He leaned in close and lightly kissed her lips, and then closed the space between them, never wanting to let go of the other.

AN: behold, this is the end, and I'd like to thank all my loyal readers and reviewers, I'm not sure what I'm going to do next, but I think I've milked this story idea for all it's worth, ^_^ I hope you like the ending, fluffy for those of you who watned it, and for those of you who hate fluff, get over it, I like fluff. ^________________^ it was a little rushed, but once I get an idea in my head, it's hard to pace it out. And I made Naraku's song up as a went, so, yeah, it was suppose to suck, Bunny Naraku.

^_^ JA NE for now!
