The Curse of a Half-Demon
-Chapter 22-
He Just Wants to Have Fun (Same day)

Kagome and Inuyasha were standing on a cliff. Kagome was near the edge and Inuyasha was holding her close to him. Her hand was on his chest and he was holding it with his other arm wrapped around her.

"I'm sorry I couldn't tell you this before, Kagome. But it was really hard to bring it out..." said Inuyasha. He didn't want to let go of her and she didn't want to let go of him. She didn't know what he was talking about.

"What do you mean?" Asked Kagome. She looked up at him and he looked at those eyes of hers.

"I'm leaving...forever. I'm sorry!" Then some kind of light came out of the sky and it shined on them. But it wasn't just for shining.

Then the cliff started to break and Kagome almost fell off. She was about to fall but Inuyasha caught her just in time. But when Kagome looked down, there wasn't any green woods down there. It turned all black...could it be hell?

She looked back at Inuyasha with a worried look. The light from the sky was taking him away. Was he going to heaven? She held on tightly to his hand and he did the same.

"What's happening?" Asked Kagome.

"I'm going to heaven...and you're going to hell. They're trying to seperate us by splitting us up in to two very different places," answered Inuyasha.

"But I don't want that! I don't want to go to that place! Just hang on to me and they won't take us apart!"

He closed his eyes and open them again to look at it. "Before I let go, I have to tell you something."

"No! Don't let go! I don't want to die!!"

"Its hard to hold on forever when they're pulling you from the other end. I can't hold on to you...they're trying to pull me away from you with all of their might. They're doing the same with you."

"Please don't! Don't let go no matter what happens!"

"You know you can't hold on to my hand too. It's almost time..."

"NO!! Please...no!"

"I love you, Kagome!"

They both let go at the same time. Inuyasha was disappearing in the sky and Kagome was disappearing in the black hell hole. (_ Please excuse my language! Some of my friends don't like it when I curse!)

Kagome woke up and found herself staring at the ceiling. It was only a dream. But what did it mean? Was Inuyasha going to die soon? Or is she going to die soon? She wasn't sure if it meant anything.

But she knew IF Inuyasha died, she would be in a place far worse then that. In her heart...a VERY lonely place in her heart and she'll NEVER be able to get over if Inuyasha died.

"Ow! Ow!! OW!!"

She sat up and turned her head towards Sango and Inuyasha. She was resting on the couch and saw both of them being angry at each other...again! Sango was trying to treat the little hole in his stomach but he was complaining because she was doing it too rough.

"That hurts! Can't you do it a LITTLE more gently!?" Asked Inuyasha.

"No! If you keep complaining, I'll tighten up the bandage around your stomach so it can hurt more!" Said Sango.

"I would rather a REGULAR human girl do this then a Demon Slayer like YOU!!"

That made Sango angry. She wasn't finished treating Inuyasha's wound. There were two ends of the long white bandage. So she grabbed them and pull them. It made Inuyasha squeaked and that really hurt him. (_ That would definetly hurt if there was a hole in my stomach.)

Miroku and Shippo were laughing at them. Those kind of people never get along. Miroku turned his head to face Kagome and smiled.

"I guess you finally woke up!" Said Miroku. Kagome looked at him him and saw his kimono was off half way to cover his underwear. His chest was covered in bandages but she forgot why. Oh yeah...Inuyasha clawed him! (_ Ha Ha HA!!! Miroku deserves it!!)

Inuyasha looked at Kagome with a look that couldn't be explained. Kagome saw the look and couldn't tell if Inuyasha was happy or sad or disappointed. She just thought if Inuyasha is really going to die in front of her eyes.

"Hey Kagome! Do you want to play?" Asked Shippo. He was standing on his little fox feet in front of her. Kagome turned her head away from Inuyasha and faced Shippo.

"Sorry Shippo! But I'm a little tired!" Answered Kagome.

Shippo had a frown on his face. He just left the room and went upstairs. What's wrong with him?

Kagome would talk to him later. She got off the couch and looked at Sango and Inuyasha with a smile

"Here! Let me treat his wound, Sango!" Said Kagome.

Inuyasha was happy. He didn't want Sango to treat his wound.

*~*~

"Hmph! They hardly pay attention to me! I may be a little adult but that doesn't mean they can treat me like I don't exist! I have to do something to get their attention. But what?" Shippo began to question himself.

He was sitting on top of Kagome's roof with his arms crossed and his eyes closed. He was trying to think of a plan for them to pay a lot of attention to him then themselves. He was thinking VERY hard. He needed a good plan! But what kind!?

He started to think on how Kagome and Inuyasha care for each other. Then he started to think on how Sango and Miroku care about each other. His mind clicked an idea.

"I got it! It's perfect! IT'S PERFECT PEOPLE!!!" He stood on his feet with his arms out. Like he ruled the world or something like that. When he shouted that out, it was like he wanted someone to hear him and asked what does he have for a plan.

*~*~

Sango was upstairs coming out of the bathroom. She was really tired of fighting Inuyasha in his demon form. But that lead to Kagome. How does Kagome feel about this?

"Hel-lo!"

Sango thought that was Miroku. She turned to him but realized it wasn't. It was Inuyasha. Why did he just came up there with a wierd smile on his face?

"What do you want, Inuyasha!?" Angered Sango. She crossed her arms and looked away.

"I only want to apoligize! That's it!" Said Inuyasha.

Sango looked at him with an angry look. "Give me a break! You're not that soft!"

"I know! But I'm tired of trying to make a war with you. So I'm apoligizing! I'm sorry Sango the Demon Slayer!"

She looked at him with a wierd look. A look that says You're-lying-so-I'm- going-to-kill-you look. And that is a scarey look on her face.

"There! You said you were sorry! So leave!"

"But I forgot something."

"What? To declare war with me again!?"

"No." He walked up to her and put his hands on her shoulders. What was he doing? He leaned in and kissed her on her lips. (_ I know what's going on and you guys don't...Okay! I'll shut up now!)

He got his hands off her and his lips too. Then he ran downstairs so fast, she didn't get a chance to ask him why he did that.

*~*~

Inuyasha was outside on the roof while Kagome was thinking about her dream on the couch. Then Miroku came in with tea and set it on the table. He sat next to her on the couch.

"Something wrong?" Asked Miroku.

"Yeah..." answered Kagome.

Miroku was waiting for Kagome to speak up. But she didn't know he wanted her to continue on. "Well?"

"Huh? Oh! Sorry...it was this dream I had before I woke up."

"What kind of dream?"

"I don't want to tell anyone right now."

"Okay! I understand!" He picked up his tea cup and was drinking it. He saw Kagome took her cup of tea and drank it too. She then set the cup in her lap. He still was drinking.

"Miroku?"

"Hmm?"

"Is...Inuyasha gonna die?"

He spit out some of his tea and wiped his mouth. He looked at her with hope on her face.

"No! Why?"

"Just curious. But what I want to know from Inuyasha is, what is he going to tell me what he's suppose to tell me? He promised me he would tell me when we first met."

Miroku tried to finish his tea without spitting it out again. He drank it all before he continued to talk to her.

"Do you love him?"

"Yes."

"Do you trust him?"

"Yes."

"Do you believe he'll tell you the thing he promised?"

"Yes...Hey! What's with all the questions!?"

"Just asking so I can know something. You have to be careful Kagome. You don't know if a guy is going to come and steal you away from all of us."

"What do you mean?"

He smiled and put his hand on her face. He kissed her. WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE!? (_ Heh heh...)

He stood up and ran back to the kitchen as fast as he could. Kagome was stunned and speechless. She didn't believe her friend Miroku kissed her.

*~*~

In a few hours, Kagome called everybody into the living room. She called Miroku and Sango who are upstairs. Kagome called Shippo and Inuyasha who are on the roof. Kirara was already on the couch just wondering whats going on.

When they all came into the living room, she started to complain.

"Something is going on in this house! And it's not funny!" Said Kagome.

"I agree!" Said Sango. She turned to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, why did you kiss me?"

"I didn't kiss you! YOU kissed me on the roof!" Angered Inuyasha. "Why would I kiss you when I like somebody else!?"

"That happen to you guys too? Miroku kissed me in the living room!" Said Kagome who was pointing a finger and Miroku.

Sango looked at Miroku with an angry look. He knew what it mean. It means If-you-really-kissed-Kagome-then-I'm-REALLY-going-to-kill-you look. Very scarey for Miroku.

"Did you do that Miroku?" Asked Sango.

"No I didn't! Kagome kissed me outside!" Answered Miroku.

"No I didn't! YOU kissed me!!" Said Kagome.

Shippo just sat on the table looking at the teenagers arguing. He wanted to laugh. Everybody was arguing on who kissed who. Everybody was very confused. But then he spoke up.

"Hey guys!" Said Shippo.

"WHAT!?" Yelled everybody.

They all looked at Shippo with a confused look. He stood on top of the table.

"No one kissed no one! I turned into all of you and I did those kisses! It was really funny watching you guys going crazy and arguing for it! I just wanted some fun. But I do needed some attention from all of you!" Said Shippo. He laughed out loud at their faces. He kept laughing until he didn't heard them laughing. He looked up and saw their faces.

They had an evil glare in their eyes. (_ Sometimes in other shows, I see that kind of evil glare but it was in the color of yellow.)

They all had their weapons in their hands. Kagome had her bow and arrows, Inuyasha with Tetsusaiga, Sango with her boomerang, and Miroku with his staff. Their shadows covered Shippo's whole body and he stepped back away from them.

"Shippo...you know better then to mess with people's lives!" Said Inuyasha. That's the first time he said Shippo's name! (_ I think!)

"Once you do that you have to suffer the consequences!" Said Miroku.

"And by that, we have to punish you by hurting you a little bit!" Said Kagome.

"So what do you have to say for yourself?" Asked Sango.

He was afraid. He took another step back. He was also shaking. "That maybe...I should've...never said anything!" Answered Shippo.

"Wrong answer! Prepare to run Boatpo!!" Said Inuyasha.

Shippo ran outside and everybody followed him.

Well, at least he got some attention from them. But it was nothing like he expected it. You do the crime you pay the time Shippo.

So now they won't stop chasing Shippo until they catch him and give him the punishment. When they finally catched him, they gave him his punishment. It is to sleep outside in the dark...all alone with no one. He didn't like that because he was afraid to sleep outside when its dark.

So he just sat outside looking at the moon with tired eyes. It was the only thing he could do all by himself. That's a lesson for him to learn when he grows up. Not to interfere with anybody's love life unless you HAVE to do it! If it's for their own good.

If you have a bad love life, tell someone to ruin it for you so you can find someone else. But don't over do it! You might regret it! Like Shippo when he interfere with their love lives. But I wouldn't say they ACTUALLY have a love life. Unless they become a couple...I wonder when that'll happen. Hee hee...(_That's a lesson for you guys to learn too!)
