Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Kenshin.
Now to answer reviews!
Winged Knight: Nope, not looking too good for them at all. And no, I am not going to steal him because then I would have a very angry rabbit hanyou after my blood.
Lilanimegirl2007: Heh, thanks. Don't worry, I'm trying to update every day.
Chapter 7: Annoyed
The group had been locked in the brig for several hours. There were four cells in a row, all with iron bars and heavy locks. The humans and Shippo had been separated into the two cells in the middle, with Kenshin, Shura, and Kagome on one side, and Kaoru, Yahiko, and Shippo on the other. Their hands were bound in front of them and their weapons had been taken away. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were in their own cells on opposite ends of the humans. They had been taken slightly more precaution with; Inuyasha's hands were manacled together, and Sesshomaru, only having one hand so just having one manacle, the manacles were chained to the ship's wall so that they couldn't pull them out without sinking the ship, and their feet were chained together as well. And there were chains around their necks that attached to the floor. The pirates were taking no chances.
Kagome was worried about Inuyasha. He should have woken up by now, she thought miserably. Sesshomaru should have woken up too, but she wasn't as worried about him. He had only gotten beaten up; Inuyasha had nearly drowned. There was also the fact that she normally really hated Sesshomaru and this was just a temporary truce. He was going to be really, really mad when he woke up. Not only had he got beaten by a bunch of humans, he was now chained to the floor in a way very reminiscent of a puppy-dog. In fact, he did look sort of like a puppy when he was sleeping and didn't have his 'Mask of Emotionless Ice' on. She needed a camera so that she could blackmail him later. That would make a nice hobby; collecting blackmail photos. OKAY back on track, she scolded her brain, This is NOT the time to be thinking of blackmail photos. Stupid stream of consciousness.
"Kagome, Sesshomaru is waking up," Kenshin tapped her on the shoulder and she looked up to see Sesshomaru groggily opening his eyes. Here comes the storm…she thought grimly.

Sesshomaru started to regain consciousness slowly. His thought process was moving slowly too. Very slowly.
I smell salt. Lots of salt. The salt is annoying. It's right in front of me and I can't move. There should be someone here. Someone small and green with an annoying voice. But there isn't. Why not? I feel the urge to step on something. Something green. There should be someone standing right there. And asking if I'm all right. In an annoying voice. Something happened. Something that involved a net. And pain. I have something around my neck. I wonder what it is? I don't like it. I need to stand up. And step on something green. But I can't move. I am annoyed. At the salt. And the thing around my neck. And the green. Who should be standing there. With a stick. I remember a stick. The green carried the stick. And followed me around. Asking questions. In an annoying voice. Something else annoys me. Something red. And silver. With dog ears. Who got something that I wanted. Something big and pointy. And fluffy. I have something fluffy. Big and white and fluffy. I like my fluffy. My fluffy is on top of me. That is good. I don't like it when people touch my fluffy. I don't like people. They annoy me. Lots of things annoy me. Like the salt. The salt is from the ocean. There's something about the ocean. And a boat. And the people on the boat. And I was pulling the boat. And it annoyed me. Then there was a bigger boat. And something about the big pointy thing that I wanted. And then there was blood. Lots of blood. I like blood. Blood doesn't annoy me. Unless it's my blood. Then I am very annoyed. And I melt things. Melting things is fun. I melted a tree once. And then I stopped. Because someone was crying. And that was bad. It didn't annoy me though. It was a little girl crying. Little girls don't annoy me. I know a little girl. With black hair. And a missing tooth. Who smiles too much. And asks lots of questions. But not in an annoying voice. The little girl's name is Rin.
And then Sesshomaru's brain clicked, and he stopped thinking slowly and started thinking like he normally does. But he didn't remember his little monologue to himself. Unfortunately so, as it would have been rather funny if he did. Oh well. He opened his eyes, and everything was blurry for a few seconds before snapping into focus. He was in a cell. And he was chained. And he was very, very annoyed.
