Ghost

Chapter 9:

Kagome stashed her diary away in a safe place in the bathroom. She sighed as she shut the door and walked over to the stairs, just as Inuyasha walked out of her room.

She flashed him a quick smile before jumping down the stairs, literally, she jumped, disappeared in the middle of the stairs as she started to fall downward, then reappeared at the bottom of the stairs. Inuyasha shivered, that was so creapy!

Kikyou opened the door to her room yawned. She saw Inuyasha and instantly smiled and looked like she had been up for quite a while. She ran over to Inuyasha and hugged him from behind. "Morning!" Kikyou chimed.

Kagome looked up when she heard Kikyou...just in time to see Inuyasha smile and bend forward, lifting a laughing Kikyou off the ground, and started walking down the stairs. Kagome looked away, 'Why am I jealous? I shouldn't be jealous!'

Kagome started to walk away humming to herself. 'That damn bitch! That damn bitch!' She repeated over and over in her mind. "Whatcha hummin'?" Kagome heard Inuyasha whisper as he walked by her, Kikyou free.

"Nothing." Kagome smiled to herself and continued humming. When she reached the table she stopped, "Mmmmm! Pancakes! Pst! Pst! Inuyasha! Pst!" Inuyasha turned an annoyed face to her. "Pass me some pancakes! Slip them under the table or something." Inuyasha rolled his eyes and slitely nodded.

Kagome crawled under the table, making sure to pinch Kikyou's leg, with her finger nails, as she crawled under. Kikyou let out a shriek and jumped up. "What the fuck was that?!" Kikyou snarled.

"Kikyou!" Mrs. Higurashi gasped. "Not at the table! I thought you knew better!" Kikyou blushed and sat back down.

"I-I-I didnt mean to-" Kikyou stammered.

"I know..." Mrs. Higurashi replied sarcasticly.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. That was kinda rude…Kikyou said she didn't mean to. He would have to ask Kagome later. He shrugged and put some pancakes on his plate. Making sure no one was looking he slipped one under the table. A hand grabbed it. Kagome's head appeard through the table. "Ya know...You could have put syrup on it!"

Inuyasha jumped back in his chair. "Eek!"

All eyes at the table were on him (Remember everyone, in this fic, Grampa (Jii-chan) is dead.) . "Something wrong?" Mrs. Higurashi asked.

"Uh...No. Not really...hehehe..." Every one started eating again.

"You might not wanna do that. People will start thinking you're crazy." Kagome advised. "Oh well, I was thinking it over. I don't want any syrup anymore. It would get all over my fingers and probably drip down and get on my clothes. But i still wouldn't mind a plate or something to eat on." Inuyasha reached through her head and grabbed the syrup. "Hey! That was rude! Didn't your mother ever teach you not to put your hand through a womans head?!" Kagome's look changed from anger to confusion. There was DEFINATLY something wrong with that last sentence.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. There was DEFINATLY something wrong with that last sentence. "Ok." Kagome shook her head. "Never mind that last sentence! But still, I don't like people reaching through my head!" Inuyasha just ignored her and finished his pancakes. "Fine then if you are gonna ignore me then I'm just gonna leave." As an afterthought she added. "AFTER I finish my pancake!" Kagome's head vanished through the table once again.

When she was done with her pancake (after thoroughly annoying Inuyasha by poking his legs and pulling on his pants the whole time she was eating.) she decided to look around the place...for memories sake, of course.

Might as well start in the old storage house. As Kagome floated through the door she heard shuffling around, as if someone was looking for something. "AH! There they are!" Kagome heard a familiar voice say. She rounded a piller of old junk and stoped dead in her tracks.

"Jii-chan?!"

"Kya!!" The short old man turned around quickly. "Huh? Ka-Kagome is that you? Did the heavens send you here to help me haunt this house?!" He asked hopefully.

"No...I'm so happy to see you!" Kagome flew over to her grandfather and hugged him.

"I'm happy to see you too, Kagome!" He returned her hug. "I'm sorry it took me until death to see how horrible Kikyou was...just like you tried telling us."

"It's ok. I forgive you." Kagome put her feet on the ground and stepped back. "Now, what were you looking for?"

"Oh, it was my ofuda! But dont worry, I found them." Jii-chan held up one of his hands, full with the ofuda.

"Whatcha gonna do with them?"

"Kagome, I was doing my usual rounds one the house, checking room to room for intruders, and thats when I felt it! The aura of a youkai! In the room Kikyou and her boy friend were sleeping in-I'll get back to that later-! Kagome, in this house! I stopped all I was doing and came straight here!" Tears were falling down his face as the hand with the ofuda was fisted near his head.

Kagome sweatdropped. "Jii-chan..."

"Come, now, Kagome!" Kagome sighed and followed him. Well, at least this would be intresting.

Kagome and her Jii-chan floated through the house and stopped short of Kikyou and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha was walking down the hall with Kikyou, about to pack up what little they had left out so that they could be ready by the time they had to leave to catch their plane, when ofuda shot at Inuyasha out of no where. "Holy...!" Inuyasha ducked just in time. Kikyou screamed when she saw the floating ofuda.

"W-W-What i-i-is th-that?!" Kikyou stuttered, pointing. Inuyasha looked up. He turned his head to look at Kagome.

"What. Are. You. DOING?!" He hissed.

"Whatever are you talking about Inuyasha? I'm not doing anything." Kagome put on her best innocent look as another ofuda flew at Inuyasha. She could hardly wait 'till he found out that they were harmless...Her Jii-chan's spells and charms NEVER worked.

"Ka-go-me! Stop whatever is doing this! NOW!" Inuyasha looked pretty pissed, and that was something NO ONE wanted to see...it was scary. He ducked again.

"I'm very sorry Inuyasha, but I cant. I'm not doing it." Kagome started to laugh as Jii-chan started to dance around Inuyasha, waving his ofuda and chanting. "Meet Jii-chan."

Finally, an ofuda hit Inuyasha straight in his face. He fell over and waited for the burning, the pain, to start. As Kagome's laughter got louder and no pain came Inuyasha opened an eye. Nothing was happening. "G-get up." Kagome laughed. "You look like a dumbass sitting there on the floor like that."

Inuyasha pulled the ofuda off his face and ripped it in half. "What the...?"

"Jii-chan's spells never work." Kagome explained, getting a "Hey! What's that supposed to mean?!" from her grandpa.

^0^ -_-0

Kouga sighed. Haunting this store was a drag. He was so bored. Wasn't that hot girl from the dream gonna come by anytime soon? Kagome wasn't it? Yea, that was her name.

Kougan sighed again. He walked over to an old woman and stood infront of her.

The old woman, previously mentioned above, was looking at a bag of chips and putting them into her small hand basket. Kouga walked right in front of her and was about to use his favorite scaring move when she walked right through him. He's body came apart then back together again. Oh the woes of being dead.

He turned around and saw the old woman at the counter looking around, as if she was doing something wrong. She pointed to a magazine and Kouga saw the counter person, Kiminobu, glance at her strangely. Kouga walked over to the woman and looked over her shoulder.

When Kouga saw what she was buying he backed up so fast he didnt even see the shelf, and backed straight into it. He held a hand over his heart and watched the old woman's retreating back. He couldnt believe it...that woman had to be about ninety...and she was buying porn?!

Kouga HATED this store.

^0^ -_-0

"So thats the story Jii-chan. He can see me." Kagome finished.

"So...You're stuck haunting a house of evil Youkai." Jii-chan nodded his head in sadness.

"No...They aren't evil. Actually, I like them, and I just ADORE that Sesshomaru's hair!" Kagome sighed, lost in thought.

Inuyasha growled jealously, but cut himself off when he reolized what he was doing.

Kikyou had long since passed out when the flying ofuda begain. "Well," Inuyasha begain. He looked at the cat clock hanging on the wall of the hall. "it's about time that we leave for the plane." He picked up Kikyou and begain to walk into Kagome's room.

Inuyasha laid Kikyou on Kagome's bed and started packing what little he had taken out of his suitcase. When he was finished he left Kikyou on Kagome's bed and started packing her stuff.

When both their suitcases were packed up he got Mrs. Higurashi to call him a cab.

Inuyasha waited outside on the steps for the cab when Souta, Kagome's little brother, came up next to him. "So...Mom tells me that you're a dog youkai, with silver hair and silver dog ears and long claws, and amber eyes." Souta said.

"She told you?" Inuyasha looked at him from the corner of his eye.

"Yea! I was like, 'WOW THATS SOOOOOO COOL!' I mean it is! Could you show me?! I bet if you ever met Kagome she would think it was cool too! She thought stuff like that was cool and she always told me that she wanted to be a youkai. So that she could jump up in the sky and slash through stuff with her claws and have super hearing and vision in the dark and stuff!" Souta beamed.

"Is that all you people ever talk about? Kagome?" Inuyasha asked, irratated.

"Well, she's hard to forget, and the funaral just made us, ya know...Wanna talk about her. She was the coolest person I ever knew, she was always so happy and nice...well, up until she got all depressed and all." Souta looked down.

"Do you, by any chance, know...why...she...um...killed herself?"

"Yea...It was 'cause Kikyou kept pickin' on her and bullien' her."

"How do you know?"

"Simple. I saw most of it. Kikyou hittin' Kagome, stealin' her stuff, breaking her stuff. I remember that...once, I was hidding in the well house, and Kikyou was talking to Kagome. Kikyou even got ME believing no one loved, or even liked, Kagome. Then Kagome started getting mad and angry at everything. Then she got sad all the time. Then she started crying in her room..." Souta was bearly talking now. Inuyasha could see how sad he was. But Kikyou couldn't have done those things. She was so kind to him. "Then one night I walked in her room and she was crying and she had a knive in her hand. She put it away quickly, but I saw it. She had out her diary, too. That was the same night she..."

The taxi chose that time to drive up. "I guess I should go get Kikyou now. But one more question before I go." Inuyasha looked at the teary faced boy standing next to him. "How come your mom was mean to Kikyou when she cussed at the table? She said she didn't mean to."

Souta sniffed and wipped his eyes. "It's 'cause she didn't say she was sorry. I dont think she's ever said, "I'm sorry." in her life. If she did, we sure weren't around." Souta shrugged and walked away. Inuyasha got up with a sigh and got Kikyou, woke her up, and got into the taxi.

When the got off the plane Inuyasha got a taxi and took Kikyou to her house, then him and Kagome went to his mansion.

Inuyasha smiled at Kagome. "We're home."
