Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any other anime.

Inuyasha: *sits cross-legged on a tree branch, chowing down on an apple* "Hmm, not bad." *notices the audience of readers staring at him & narrows his eyes* "Whaddya looking at? Stupid weakling humans..." *gains more stares & he jumps up* "STOP STARING AT ME & READ WHAT'S BELOW!" *people continue staring & he pitches his half-eaten apple at someone's head, knocking them out* "YOU PEOPLE TICK ME OFF!" *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

They all manage to make it to the fair somehow without killing each other (mainly Inuyasha killing Shippou). People stare at Inuyasha & point at his strange clothes, whispering to each other.

Inuyasha growls while walking past the pointing & whispering people until he finally snaps, "SHUT THE HELL UP!!!"

They immediately stop & back off away from him.

Kagome glances back at Inuyasha, "What do you expect? People aren't used to seeing a someone dressed in a kimono & it's hard to accept..."

Inuyasha glares down at his feet while walking, "Stupid fools..."

Kagome frowns, but then smiles, "Aw, forget about them, you're at a fair where there's tons of rides & food!"

Shippou grins, "I love food & rides, just not the scary ones!"

Inuyasha does something unexpected next... he smiles, "I guess it could be some fun..."

Shippou jumps up & down, "Yay! Let's go on rides first!"

Shippou takes off towards the Carousel & Inuyasha blinks, "We should get Shippou a leash, or something!"

Kagome grabs onto one of his hands, smiling, "C'mon Inuyasha!"

She tugs Inuyasha towards the Carousel & Inuyasha gripes, "Isn't that a kiddy ride???"

Kagome laughs a little, "It can't be that bad!"

She runs faster, dragging him, and his hat flies off. He manages to grab it with his other hand before disappearing into the crowd.

Next we see Inuyasha sitting on one of the horses, his head resting on one of his clawed hands (Facial expression: ¬.¬*), and Shippou sitting on top of his head using his ears for reigns, "Ride 'em cowboy!"

Kagome looks over at Inuyasha & smiles nervously, "Having fun Inuyasha?"

"Does it look like it, Kagome?" Inuyasha replies, still in the same position.

Kagome continues to smile, "Aw, come on Inuyasha! It can't be that bad!"

Inuyasha raises an eyebrow & points up at Shippou, "Oh yeah? When was the last time you had a kitsune youkai sitting on top of your head tugging on your ears like they were steering a horse?"

Kagome scratches her chin, "Erm... never?" ^_^*

Inuyasha crosses his arms, "Ok then, you have no room to talk. And I get to choose the next ride."

They get off the Carousel & Inuyasha glances around at all of the rides, sizing them up, "Which one is the most scary one to you Kagome?"

He looks over at her for answers & she looks around, "I would have to say the roller coaster."

Inuyasha glances around again, "And which one is that?"

A major anime sweat drop appears on the side of Kagome's head & she points at it, "That one..."

Shippou looks up at the towering ride & hides behind Kagome, clutching onto her pant leg, "Too scary."

Inuyasha reaches down, grabs Shippou by his bushy tail, and picks him up, "Too bad, we're going on it. There's no ride that can be scarier than fighting demons, in your point of view that is."

Shippou nods, "I guess you're right. Riding the roller coaster should not be scary at all!"

They wait in a long line of people, who often stare at Inuyasha & Shippou. Inuyasha puts his hat back on, folds his arms, and stuffs his hands into the opposite sleeves of his kimono. Shippou strikes up a conversation with a young child behind them. Inuyasha, who had both of his eyes closed at the time, opens an eye & looks down at them. He opens his other eye & unfolds his arms, still staring at the two. He kneels down in front of the child, a little girl & grins, revealing his sharp fangs.

He wants to see how much he can scare her, "Konnichiwa, my name's Inuyasha. What's yours?"

The girl amazingly doesn't back off, which surprises Inuyasha. "My name's Nikara, but everyone calls me Nikki for short."

She pauses for a moment & when she sees one of Inuyasha's dog ears reveal itself from under the hat, "Why do you have doggy ears Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha takes off his hat & runs an index finger over the tip of one of his ears, "I'm an hanyou, and a very powerful one at that. Most people would cringe or flee at the very sight of me, why not you?"

Nikki smiles, "It's not your fault that you're half-demon with fangs & puppy dog ears. Differences shouldn't set you apart from others, they should just make you unique. That's what my mum told me whenever some kids would tease me about what I like or wear."

Inuyasha blinks & stares at her silently with a confused expression. Shippou scrambles up Inuyasha's back & up onto his head.

He pokes his head down in front of Inuyasha's face & looks him eye-to-eye, smiling, "Inuyasha's got a new friend!"

Inuyasha groans, plucks Shippou up off of his head, and drops him along with the hat, "Shut up fox." ¬_¬*

Nikki's mother sees Inuyasha & takes a step back, terrified.

"Demon..." she mutters & scoops up her daughter.

The woman turns & begins rushing down the side of the line, towards the end.

Nikki looks at Inuyasha over her mother's shoulder, frowns, and waves farewell, "Bye bye..."

Kagome watches as Inuyasha looks at the girl and slowly waves goodbye to her before picking up the hat again & putting it back on. He stops when she's out of sight, turns back around, and meets Kagome's eyes.

She stares at him, frowning, and Inuyasha fakes being angry, "What are you looking at???"

Kagome continues to look at him, "It seemed that you had a soft spot for that little girl Inuyasha."

Inuyasha folds his arms in the same manner as before with his hands stuffed in the opposite sleeves & grunts, "Nah, I was just trying to scare her, then I had to explain what I was. I was trying to educate the whelp."

Kagome sighs, "Yeah, whatever Inuyasha. I know how tough & heartless you want people to believe you are, but you're really a kind person."

"Whaddya mean? I don't have a soft spot for anyone!" Inuyasha exclaims, lying.

Kagome rolls her eyes a bit "Uh-huh, deny it all you want Inuyasha."

Inuyasha looks up & off to the side, scowling, "Feh!"

Kagome reaches up & tickles his ear, "I'll leave you alone about it."

His ear twitches & he gives a small nod, acknowledging her.
