In The Dog Pound
+*+*+
Thank you all so much for the nice reviews! I saw a couple of reviewers asking for an Inu-chan puppy, too. Who doesn't?
Disclaimer- I do not own Inuyasha, yet this story is MINE!

Chapter Two
Bad Puppy!
I will not strangle that mutt... I will not strangle that mutt... A mantra was going through Kagome's mind as she drove the Higurashi's new family member, Inuyasha, and Souta back home. Inuyasha seemed to hate the interior of Kagome's mother's PT Cruiser, and had started chewing up the upholstery and digging through the ashtrays.
"Souta, you do know that he is your responsibility, right?" Kagome asked, looking through the rearview mirror. Her brother nodded. "That means that any damages he causes in this car is your problem. Got it? Not mine. OUCH!!" Inuyasha obviously didn't like Kagome's little reprimand, for he had just bitten her ankle. She glared at the puppy, who was currently giving her an innocent look, with one ear perked in the air, the other flopped on his head, and his golden eyes twinkling. (a/n- my dog does that, too)
"Come 'ere, Inu-chan," Souta said. "Get away from Kagome. She's rancid meat." Inuyasha must've understood the meaning of that sentence, for he growled at Kagome, and then walked towards Souta. "But don't worry, we got you some dog food, some treats and toys for you." A disgusted look shadowed Inuyasha's face. "But don't worry, I'll give you some of our dinner, instead." He whispered the last part, and then Inuyasha started panting and wagging his tail again. Kagome sighed, and finished driving the rest of the way home.

Kagome trudged up the many stairs to the Higurashi Shrine, ready for her miko training by her grandfather, who, in her mind, had no magical ability whatsoever. Still, even though it was Kagome instead of Souta, Inuyasha followed. She gave the pup a small smile, and got a dirty look instead. (a/n- my dog does that to my mom ^_^)
"Tadaima!" Kagome announced.
"Welcome home, Kagome," Her grandfather answered, holding a huge pot. "Look at what I found! It's a clay pot dated to beyond the Feudal Era!" A bark from Inuyasha broke the incredulous silence. The puppy growled at the pot, or at least the drawing of a beautiful young woman on it. "Where did that come from?"
"Souta and I were looking for Buyo, when Souta asked for a dog instead," Kagome explained. "The dog hates me, I know."
"Maybe you should try and get that dog to like you before we start, or else he'll be gnawing off your arm from the elbow," Grandpa told her. "I had a cat like that... hated my older sister to death..." Kagome snuck out of the shrine, to the Goshinboku tree. She turned, and noticed Inuyasha following her, timidly.
"Come here, boy. I won't hurt you..." She smiled again at the puppy, who looked at her, confusedly. He sniffed her leg, before sneezing. "Are you allergic to me?" Inuyasha gave her a slightly innocent/confused look before sniffing her arm. "Hey, boy, why don't you just sit--" She was interrupted by a crash. She looked down at the puppy, and gasped.
In the pup's place was a teenaged boy, his nose VERY close to her chest.

I know, I'm evil.
I got
this idea from Aurelia Lothlorien's fic, Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
(Which is a very good fiction that everyone should read!), in case
anyone was wondering.
Bye!
