Chapter 4: Shippou's Got A Secret
.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.
Soon the School Dismissal rang
and everyone cleared the halls of Goshinboku. The hallways light up through the
sunshine in the window making an illuminating glow cast the school halls over
like a spell.
Kagome hung out with Miroku,
Sango, and Naraku all day. InuYasha didn't show up with the group, and that got
them pretty worried. Their ole bud left without notice. They all split up,
homebound.
Kagome trudged up the Shrine's
steps and into her home.
"I'm home! Anyone
here??" Kagome yelled into the eerie hush of the house. Shrugging it off
she put down her schoolbag and took off her shoes at the door. She tiredly
walked into the kitchen, immediately discovering a note on the fridge.
'Kagome kawaii-chan
(beloved),
Jii-chan is visiting Disney
Land in the states, [insert Kagome's snort here] and won't be back for at least
another month due to his shortage on what he calls it, 'fun in the sun'.
Florida, Orlando, to be exact, does the trick. I am away on account of my job.
They want me to do a full report on the wildlife of Safari creatures, which
brings me to Southern Africa. For a month, tops. Souta will be at Kohaku's
house for most of the time, but may want to come home once and a while. I felt
so sorry about you being alone for this long, so I called up your old
friend.what was his name? Robo? Oh yes! Hojo. He should be home 2 minutes after
you finish reading this. I love you, Kagome! Tootles!
Love,
Mom'
Kagome gapped at the note like
it just asked her to marry some illegal alien from Saskatchewan. She sighed in
an irritated manner, "Why don't I just change my name to Kagome
Hitorigurashi?!"
"Who is this Frodo
freak?" An irritated spoke up the shady part of the counter. Kagome let
out a gasp of fright from, of course, some strange rapist sitting upon her
counter space.. But the rapist sounded so familiar... Kagome's eyes narrowed
into slits.
"The next time you do
this, InuYasha," She said in exasperation, "I'll rip your ears off
your head with the pliers." She turned on the kitchen lights that soon
flooded the room in a light fluorescence.
"C'mon, go-chan. Answer my
question! Who is VOLVO?!!"
Kagome sniggered at InuYasha's
pronunciation of 'Hojo'. She wouldn't blame him. InuYasha only saw Hojo once a
year... and that was quite enough. All three times InuYasha had acted like a
jealous bastard. Doggie Dog world, eh?
"And just what the hell,
are you laughing at?!"
InuYasha was now inches in
front of Kagome's face with an im-so-not-in- the-mood-for-you-to-laugh-at-me-while-im-asking-you-who-Volvo-is.
It was kind of hard for him to but the Volvo expression in there, but he did
it.
Before Kagome could retort to
his ignorance, Hojo himself came into the kitchen with flowers and a purple
care bear. "Oh.. Am I interrupting something?" Kagome jumped from
what seemed to be the 900th time that day. "HOW THE HELL ARE YOU ALL
COMING IN HERE OUTTA NO WHERE?! Poof! There's Hojo! ITS CRAZY!!"
Hojo sweatdropped, "Kagome-chan, your door is open for the whole world to see..."
Kagome looked up at him with the fish eye. "Do you mind—I'm having a panic attack here!"
And as Kagome continued her
seizure on her mother's nice clean floor, InuYasha took it upon himself to talk
to Hojo.
"So... Mofo." He
ground out through clenched teeth with his arms folded across his chest presuming
his regular bad ass position. Hojo smiled cheerfully like the oblivious idiot
he is.
"It's Hojo. I remember
you. You're Neko-Yoshi, aren't you? Glad to see you again, Yooooshiiii!"
He looked like he was going to give InuYasha a bear hug. Ph33r.
If it's one thing that really
pisses InuYasha off, it's him being called a cat. By a girl's name, no less,
the nerve! And the fact that Tinker Bell was about to hug him, really made him
think twice if he was actually a guy, or just plain gay.
Kagome popped up from the floor
apparently done with her hyperventilating, seeing that her old pal was about to
hug InuYasha (H/N: OoOoo, someone give InuYasha some ice for that burn). She
hugged him instead.
"Nice to see you again,
Hojo." Kagome stated in a monotone voice, making her sound like she's been
practicing to say it.
Hojo hugged her back tightly,
with InuYasha scowling loudly in protest, now remembering that he held objects
in his hands.
"These are for you, Kagome-chan!" He stated happily, oblivious to the angry hanyou.
"Your mother sent-"
"Sent
you over here to keep me company over the 2 months while my family is gone. So
what's new?"
They both walked into her
living room sitting comfortably on the sofa. Temporarily forgetting InuYasha
was there, he followed them in noislessly.
"Your mother enrolled me
into your school now, Kagome-chan! Even though I still live in Kyoto, next
month my family is moving right here into Tokyo!" Hojo proclaimed.
Kagome tried really hard not to
reach for the nearest object, Souta's game controller, and repeatedly beat
herself with it, but forced a smile instead. "Heh... Really now.."
Looking twords InuYasha's direction, eyes almost begging for help.
InuYasha had gotten so mad that
some HOBO creature was going to keep HIS Kagome-chan company! ...Okay. So she
wasn't his. Kikyou was his. InuYasha was grateful no one could hear his
thoughts right then or he'd be knee deep in it.
"Listen, Cocoa, You aren't
spending ANY time with Kagome! I'll be the one keeping her company!" He
yelled angrily, not exactly processing what he just said causing Kagome to go
into reverie. Gnashing her teeth in a mindless manner.
"It's Hojo." Said boy
pointed out.
"Feh. That's what I
said."
Kagome shot up like a rocket,
apparently dismissed from her reverie.
"WAIT! What do you mean you're
the one going to 'keep me company'?!! YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND INUYASHA!
AND IT'S NOT ME! SO LEAVE MY HOUSE, AND DON'T SHOW YOURSELF ANYWHERE NEAR THIS
PLACE AGAIN!!" Her eyes flooded with livid unshed tears that made
InuYasha's heart splinter. He didn't think she'd take it so seriously. I mean,
it's not like they were together or anything.
"OI! What's your problem,
bitch?! Why are you crying?!" He immediately wanted to shoot himself after
those words. He just couldn't believe he had brought himself to say those words...
Seeing Kagome stiffen and gasp at his hurtful words. He just
wanted to make everything right again, before Kikyou. But knew deep inside of
him, that there was a reason for being with the substitute. Kikyo, being that
substitute.
"Kagome, I.I.."
In truth, he had never seen her
cry. After the death of her father she kept rigid. He never knew how to handle
a crying woman, especially when it was Kagome. The first girl to ever accept
him for who he really was... and he just hurt her.
InuYasha shamefully walked over
to Kagome, ashamed at his words more then Kagome was, and patted her
comfortably on her shoulder. Snaking his arms around her waist into a strong,
yet warm and gentle embrace. Kagome froze at the action, shoving out of his
grip.
"Get off'a me..!" She finally managed
to get free of his grip.
"InuYasha..." She
looked deep into his pools of amber eyes wishing she'd drown in them, but
snapped out of the trance with a start from his cruel words. Tears once again
welled up in her eyes as she continued on.
"InuYasha, I want you out
of my house..Hojo," Hojo looked sympathetically up twords Kagome with his
sapphire orbs of happiness. He bit his lip in an angelic silence, "Yes,
Kagome-chan?"
"Lead InuYasha out. I want
to speak of this no more." Running as fast as she could out of the room. The
maple haired boy nodded to her command (H/N: Man, I envy Kagome. She's got that
boy whipped like the family pig). A door slammed shut behind him, notifying the
residents of the living room that the young girl had kept herself away.
The sapphire-eyed young man frowned deeply as he saw InuYasha get up and start to follow his friend's footsteps.
"WAIT! Kagome--" Hojo
stepped up and held InuYasha back from going after her.
"LET GO OF ME!!!"
Hojo didn't comply with his wish. Instead he had miraculously gathered the
strength to push him down to the floor. Hojo's eyes were no longer friendly,
but menacing instead. Revealing rage, hatred, and sorrow. His eyes narrowed
dangerously, almost daring the silver-haired teenager to defy him.
"You don't know what
you've just done." Hojo spat out gruffly. Nope! Definitely not the 5-minutes-ago-Mofo.
"You're crazy."
InuYasha started to growl and once again tried to get past him to his
heart-shattered friend, but Hojo still stood strong. Somehow.
"Listen to her.
Leave."
"YOU CANT JUST-"
"I said.. Leave."
InuYasha didn't like this kind
of Hojo. Was he a schizophrenic? He didn't want to find out. He stood up from
the floor and walked out of the door with his head hung low, drained from his
strength by the ashamed torture he put himself and his bestest friend through...
He'd make sure Mofo got his, sooner or later!
But what he didn't expect was
to see someone, or some people, waiting for him outside.
But back inside the house...
Hojo closed the door softly
then turned around to face the living room.
"Kagome, you can come out
now."
Kagome timidly crept from the
shadows and leapt out at Hojo crying with all she's worth. Hojo held her in an
embrace as his dear friend cried over some lousy jerk-off. 'Kagome meets the
strangest people.' he thought to himself. But held her until her sobs quieted
down.
They soon got ready for bed,
Hojo took Souta's room, and Kagome to her's.
Meanwhile, outside... (H/N:
I could have stopped here but since I'm a trooper and this chapter was barely
funny at all, Im just going to continue. I am oblivious to the screams of the
mother and my desktop assistant. The taunting...OH THE TAUNTING!)
InuYasha heard the sobs of
Kagome from inside the house. He felt so terrible and bedridden from being such
a bastard. That he was.
As the boy clad in a tight red
muscle shirt and black dickies with chains walked down the shrine steps a noise
from a nearby bush was heard.
The hanyou watched the bush
move around instantaneously with weird noises coming from it. He quirked an
eyebrow and took a step back, when suddenly a familiar sky blue haired (that
made no sense -_-), skinny girl in 70's clothes and glasses was thrown from the
bush. Twigs and leaves were scattered here and there making her look like a
hobo that time-traveled. Heh. Time traveled.
"Crayon?" InuYasha
asked the messed up hippy. "What in the 7 hells are you doing here?!"
"Oh only-FUCKING-watching
you be a POMPUS ASSHOLE!!," Crayon smiled. Oblivious to the odd looks that
were practically radiating off of InuYasha's face. No one will ever get settled
out with a girl that is armed with 70's contraptions and Tourette syndrome.
"That in a nutshell."
"Can somebody please help
me out?!" A small squeaked voice came from the rustling bushes.
"I swear the world is
against me and Kikyou." InuYasha rolled his eyes, but inwardly groaned.
When he was around her, his problems seemed to (H/N: erupt) settle. But when he
was around friends, she seemed like the (H/N: Town's Bitch) laughing stock.
What a hypocrite he was being. Krusty the clown would kill to own InuYasha's
brain.
Crayon visibly tried to punch
the voice in the bush because of the saying of 'Kikyou's name. She pulled out
the little kitsune from the bushes as it tried to pull the leaves from it's
head and fuzzy tail.
"Shippou... Escaped from
Boot Camp in Guatemala I see. How do you like life on the outside?" InuYasha
quirked to the boy that was a head smaller then him.
Shippou wore camouflage jeans with a black baseball shirt hanging loose because it was unbuttoned, exposing his scratched and a bit blooded chest (from the twig scratches). It said on the front of the shirt in white letters '01' and the back said 'Benchwarmer'. His hair was nice and orange, as were his finger nails, that shown off his large hazel eyes.
InuYasha laughed at his own
statement (he was the only one), Shippou pulled out the last twig from his orange
fuzzy tail and glared at him mentally drilling holes through his head.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" He
screeched at a whispering level as to not disturb the residences.
"I'm telling you! Hitler was my
sergeant! Now you tell me if you wouldn't like to shove a pineapple up his ass,
any day." Shippou stated crossly, folding his arms over his bare chest.
InuYasha broke down in laughter while Crayon giggled at the new information.
"Besides... It's not easy
escaping from the Feds that were there. I think Kagome will be relived to see
me anyways. No one can stand you for so long InuYasha. And after what I just
heard going on in there, I thank Kami-sama Hitler was my leader."
Shippou's face turned sour as he barked his little speech a few inches from his
face.
Everyone knew Shippou was the
peacemaker and runt of the bunch, but ruffling for him to scowl at you in a
menacing manner got you in deep trouble. No one can handle a rebelling fox.
Kagome was his idol and sisterly figure, when she goes he goes... Ballistic.
Imagine how upset he was when he was dragged away from his last visit with
Kagome just to be carried away to some Boot Camp from Davie Jones Locker.
His anger was damn genuine now.
InuYasha ceased laughing as
Crayon had finished her fits of giggles long ago.
"So you were spying on
me." He stated slowly processing it through his own head matter-of-factly.
"Yeah! Me and, the mumble
mumble-Shippou tailed you here right after I, mumble mumble-found-mumble-him at
school-mumble-hassling the new kid for a dollar. Mumble-BOY!" Crayon
exclaimed proudly, Shippou censored her by placing a hand over her mouth at any
random outbursts. As much as he loved hearing them here and at camp (H/N:
sarcasm) he had to end it at a day's rest someday. (H/N: Fill in the mumbles)
"That's great. But why did
you do it?" InuYasha prodded, getting a bit annoyed talking about
something he would expect from him. Like 'Why would you hang around that sleazy
bitch? If you wanted a creampuff you can buy one for real cheap at the Stop and
Go store.'
Or something along the lines of
'Wow, I knew you had dog like instincts, but picking out a slut heads above the
crowd really shines the cherry on the sundae, don't it?' Instead, it was
something he really didn't expect.
"I saw you kiss Kikyou,
and there is no denying it."
.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.
How could you, InuYasha?!
But wait. Where did InuYasha kiss Kikyou? NO NOT LIKE THAT YOU DILLHOLES!
Like on the face. Ew. That's just sick. THE IMAGES! NOOOOOOOO!!!!
INUYASHA/KAGOME FOREVER!
Screw the poor bastards who think less of them.
This took too long to right. I
know it and so do you. But I doubt it'll happen again. I should post like once
a week. Woo! Chapter four. I'll probably get shot for not updating.
No. Hitler was not really his
leader. Shippou was being a smart allic. Sorry if it offended you, so don't
mistake me or point fingers at me. My ancestors were hurt too, ya know. Not
like I knew who they were, but still..
Okay, most of the percentage of
my reviews (more like all of them) voted for the sane pairings. Sane pairings
it is!
Now onto the review responses!!
.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.
loozer-09 - Heh
heh heh.. I remember zeh humping squirrel! Good idea! But maybe it'll be
another horny beast, oh yes, another horny beast.. Yeah! Isn't Sesshoumaru cute
in almost every story!! He'll be in the next chapter as well, for he will be
apart of my master plan to humiliate Kikyou.. So will Naraku, Shippou and
Kagome.
More insults to the bitch to
come! AHOY!
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
EvilBunnies -
Kazaa! Now there is a Website I always forget to visit. I hear good things
about it, like the downloading and stuff. But I remember a funny thing I did
last weekend. I personally went up to a sales assistant at Sun Coast and
grabbed him by his black shirt demanding to know where he hid the InuYasha
movies. Evidentially, it worked!! But he said they don't sell them, so they
pre-ordered a copy of the next InuYasha DVD with episodes 22, 23, and 14. That
sucks, because I wanted the movie. ;_; I hate America.
*GASP!* The 3rd InuYasha movie
is coming out that soon?! *gets swirly eyed and faints*
*after 30 good minutes of
resuscitation and a box of fresh air* where in the world are all the bishies..?
Oh! Anyways. I saw Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl a couple
of weekends ago! IT WAS SO AWESOME! I think Jack Sparrow/Johnny Depth is the
cutest! Followed by William Turner/Orlando Bloom, of course. The parts where
the un-dying pirates aboard the Black Pearl turned into skeletons in the
moonlight had to be one of my favorite parts of the whole movie. Especially the
battle at the cave in the end. The whole movie was so awesome! ^_~ And that
last comment about Kikyou dying with a spoon will be upheld. Except she won't
die.. *pouts* but she might just get tortured though..
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
Sailor Universe -
Thanks for the compliments! I enjoy praise. ^_^ I know, it's obvious that Sango
& Miroku should be together forever. I mean, it's like Saturday without a
morning.
Amande: Saturday has a
morning?!
Avoiding the outburst.. If I
ever see Kikyou for-real with InuYasha, I would dig up Bob Hope's remains and
eat them.
Kouga/Rin is a biiiiiig no-no.
Rin got eaten by wolfs for the love of Gods-I-Can't-Pronounce! It's a messed up
suggestion, I feel bad suggesting it.
And finally, Ayame! **major
spoilers** Ayame is part of Kouga's wolf tribe when she was a little girl. She
promised to Kouga that when she left she would meet up with him again and end
up engaged to him. When she does meet up with him again, she forgets about who
she is. And since he tails around Kagome calling her 'his woh-man' Ayame got
jealous and automatically hated her. Kagome acted as a friend to Ayame, but no
matter what, she just hated her more. But sooner or later, Ayame finds out that
Kagome just wants to stay friends with Kouga and nothing more. Ayame respects
this decision of her's and starts to be her friend. At the end of the episode,
Kouga actually does remember promising to Ayame he would be her fiancée, and
living under a rainbow I think it was.. I don't know.something with a rainbow.
Ayame has red hair and is a wolf demon. ^_^ That concludes the spoiler!
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
Anti [.] Poptarts
- Kikyou is the half priced bargain bin whore! Blow darts for everyone!
Mwahahaha...
No need to cross your fingers
any longer! ^_~ Kagome and InuYasha are going to be together, and there shall
be fluff, and Fluffy! INU/KAG TILL I DIE AND LUCIFER POSSESSES ME!
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
Three-Letter-Word
- Of course I remember who you are! I remember everyone! No one gets left
behind when I'm around! Unless, it's Kikyou. _ Yeah, She's an
exception. *watches your little spork minions chase after her* Go number three!
GO NUMBER THREE!! WOOO!!
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
SesshoumaruFanCall911
- I'll mention you eeeeeverytime you review. That I shall! Thanks for the
compliments, too! Oh yeah, the strange think with Yura is that when it glints
in the sunlight/moonlight it always turns out to be a light green. So I just
thought her hair was green, and that's what I put. ^_^ I think green suites her
fine, anyways.
Jaken and Kikyou on a blind
date?! Such... such... 3VILNESS!! *jots it down in a notepad* OoOoOoOoo. I
think I can set up a blackmail triangle somewhere along the lines. Thanks for
the idea!!!
AND THANKS FOR THE REVIEW! ^_^
PLEASE KEEP THEM ALL COMING
EVERYONE!!
.,:-'-:,.,:-'-:,.
That concludes everything now.
Except for the fact that
peanuts are stuck in the crevices of my keyboard.
And I can't get them out either
without hitting the escape key.
Peanut? Post? Peanut? Post? Peanut? Post? SO HARD TO CHOOSE!! @_@
One more thing I need to mention,
Kagome said "Maybe I should change my name to Kagome Hitorigurashi!".
Lemme specify that 'Hitorigurashi' means "living alone". It's almost
very similar to Kagome's last name 'Higurashi' isn't it? You learn something
new everyday.
Your lord and master,
Hirari the 9th Goddess Of
Maple Syrup
