Inu missed his appointment with the fast food resturant, but he didn't seem to care. He and Kagome walked home. Kagome held on to his arm and occasionally would look into his eyes.

Sango and Miroku waited outside for them. Shippo was instide with Souta. They had become fat friends. Kagome and InuYasha smiled as Miroku and Sango came towards them.

"They started clearing for the houses today." Miroku said enthusiastically.

"Kagome, wanna check it out?" Inu asked.

"Sure." Kagome smiled.

Sango and Miroku led them behind Kagome's house, beyond the shrine to a clearing made for these houses.

Sango pointed straight ahead of them. "That's where they are building Inu's house." Then she moved her finger to the left of where it just was pointing. "And that's where out home will be."

"This is so exciting."

Inu put his arm around her.

Miroku was no where to be seen and Sango just discovered this.

"Have you seen Miroku?"

Inu and Kagome looked around. "No."

"Where do you think he went?" Sango began walking back the way they came. "I knew he walked out here with us."

The three of them walked over to the front of the house. There they found a frantic Miroku.

"Miroku, there you are. Why did you take off?"

"Well, I need to go 'relieve' myself, but I am not sure where I can."

Sango placed one hand on her forehead and blushed out of embarrassment.

Kagome giggled, "Follow me, I will show you."

She led the three of them into her house and over to her bathroom.  Miroku was now doing a dance he had to go so badly.

Kagome lifted the lid to the toilet and told him to "relieve himself" in there. Then he has to wipe with the paper then flush. All of this shocked Sango, Miroku and Inu.

Miroku really had to go now so he was going to try this new system. He shoved everyone out the door and then went about his business.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome's mother offered to drive them around Tokyo. Sango, Miroku and Shippo where now going to be introduced to the automobile. Inu has already had and experience with a car. Kagome's mother owned a van ((conveniently)). Inu, Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Souta all filed into the back of the car and Kagome climbed into the passenger's seat. Miroku began to freak out as soon as the car started. Sango's eyes darted from one side to the other.

"Kagome, what is this thing?" Sango asked nervously.

"A car, its how we get around in my time." Kagome responded.

"Sango, do you believe this is safe?" Shippo whispered.

Sango shrugged.

The car began to drive down the hill. Miroku, Sango and Shippo held on for the ride.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------        

Kagome narrated the things they passed by to the amazement of her audience. Inu tapped her shoulder. "I am hungry can we stop somewhere?"

Kagome turned to her mother, "Can we?"

"Sure, there is a McDonalds around the corner. Let's go there."

"Mc Donald's?" Inu scratched his head.

Kagome's mother bought hamburgers for everyone.

Inu, Sango, Shippo and Miroku all started at the foreign food. They smelled it and took it apart.

Inu watched Souta bite into the hamburger. He decided to follow. He chewed the mysterious food many times, and then swallowed. A smile came onto his face. He then began to take more bites. Sango and Miroku saw Inu and followed his lead.

Inu saw Souta slip French fries into his mouth. Inu did the same. Kagome turned around and handed them all small white packets. Inu's eyes returned to watching Souta and watching him put the condiment onto his fries.

Inu took his packet and opened the corner and squeezed it and a red substance oozed out of it.

"THERE IS BLOOD ON MY FOOD!" Inu yelled.

Souta and Kagome laughed.

"No, that's ketchup, try it."

Inu placed the fry into his mouth and chewed vigorously. "Interesting."
