Here is my first Inuyasha story! I have taken a break from the Ranma 1/2
world to write a bit on Inuyasha, since it is another anime favorite of
mine. ^.^
I hope you enjoy! Please let me know what you all think!

Inuyasha:
Birthday!
Part I: Planning
"Inuyasha, just let me go home tonight, okay? I haven't been home in almost a week and I need to get my homework for the next couple days. Plus, my sixteenth birthday is in a couple of days. Please?" Kagome Higurashi looked at Inuyasha with sad puppy eyes. "Just for tonight?"
The hanyou folded his arms impatiently. "Feh. Excuses. Then in a few more days you're gonna wanna go back again."
"Well, duh! It's not wrong for me to wanna go home at least once a decade," Kagome shot back.
"You've been home plenty of times this decade," Inuyasha snapped, blocking her way.
She folded her arms and gave him a well-matched glare. "Inuyasha, you know very well what I meant."
"How the hell are we supposed to find any shards of the Shikon Jewel if you keep leaving for frivolous vacations?!" He stubbornly stood his ground.
Unfortunately for Inuyasha, Kagome wasn't about to back down, either. "So you call my going home to the place I'm supposed to be in the first place, and seeing my family- you're going to call that a frivolous vacation?!"
"What else should I call it, a living hell hole? You and I both know that your home is better than anything here!" The hanyou took her by the arm. "Let's go, wench."
The young miko glared up at him. "Oh, Inuyasha. . ." She called in a sickeningly sweet voice.
"Hmm?" He looked down at her and panicked when he saw her facial expression.
"SIT BOY!" She yelled into his sensitive dog-like ears.
The cursed necklace took over and he was eating dirt. "What was THAT for?!" He yelled, but fell silent when he realized that Kagome had already gone down the well back home.

"I'm home," Kagome called as she stepped inside from the main doorway. "Anyone home?" She saw a note on the table and read it:
"Kagome, If you should happen to come home now, Sota, Grandpa, and I have gone out
to buy party favors for your birthday and we'll be home shortly.
Love you, Mama" She sighed. They were out already, doing shopping that she had wanted to do for her own birthday. Kagome could only hope now that her mother had found some good games and party-favors. She was too old for stuff like pin the tail on the donkey, anyway.
Someone knocked on the door just then. She went over to answer it. Hojo stood there with another package of goodies for her. "Hello, Kagome. Well, it seems you are feeling better? I heard that you had come down with a bad case of mono, the kissing disease. Oh, and I have some disinfectant cream for those boils on your feet. I think this will make them feel better."
"Th-thanks, Hojo," Kagome said, cheeks flushing red in embarrassment. "I think I'm going to rest now, though. I'm sorry, but I think that those boils are starting to get to me right now."
He smiled. "Get well soon, Kagome."
She smiled back and waved as he left. "Thanks again, Hojo," she called. 'And thanks again, Grandpa, for making up yet another embarrassing story that I have to explain! I couldn't be gone visiting relatives in England or something, no. Instead, I have the kissing disease and boils on my feet! My social life is soon to be ruined if this keeps up!' Kagome sighed and sat down on the couch. She heard the front door open and hopped to her feet. "Mama?"
"Kagome? Oh, good, Honey, you're home," breathed her mother. "I have some games for the party. A piñata, a donkey poster with tail pins-"
"Not pin the tail on the donkey! Mama, I'm too old for that," Kagome protested. "Please, don't. . ."
"You mean," her mom sniffled, "you don't like what I've done, Kagome?"
Her daughter sighed. "No, no, no, Mama, it's great! Forget I said anything. Those games are fun. We'll have a great time with them.
Mrs. Higurashi smiled. "Oh, and Kagome. Please do invite your Feudal friends! I would love to have them over."
"Trust me, Mama," Kagome warned. "No, you wouldn't. After they go, we'd be lucky that the house wouldn't fall over."
Please invite all of your friends, Kagome. For the afternoon, and your Feudal friends can stay the night," Mrs. Higurashi suggested. "When you go back tomorrow, give them these." She handed Kagome some invitations.
When Kagome made it into her room, she sat down on her bed and sighed. "No offense to Inuyasha and Miroku, but I'm afraid the only ones who would get along with my friends here would be Sango and Shippo." She lay back and sighed. 'Maybe tomorrow things will be better,' she thought. She finally fell asleep and woke up several hours later. The sun was streaming in through her window. She showered and got ready for school, handing her invitations out to her friends, and to Hojo.
"I'd be delighted to go," Hojo said. "I'm also glad you are better!" He smiled.
"Yeah," Kagome said with a sigh. "But I have to go again, because my great aunt died yesterday."
He put a hand on Kagome's shoulder. "Oh, I'm sorry. And right before your birthday, too."
She nodded solemnly. "I have to get my homework for today, tomorrow, and Friday."
"Good luck," Hojo said kindly.
Kagome nodded her thanks, knowing that she was going to need that good luck. She went around that day and gathered her homework assignments. She went home and spent all afternoon working on her homework. She finished after dark and packed everything quickly, with five packs of ramen, two chocolate bars and a bag of chips. She jumped down the well, throwing her bag up out of the well. Kagome made a move to pull herself out when a hand was offered to help pull her up. "Inuyasha?"
"You're late, wench," came his reply.
"Sorry," she said. "I had to do homework. Oh, and in a couple days we have to go home again."
"'We'?" Inuyasha snorted. "Hell no!"
But it's my birthday," Kagome protested, "and you're invited." She smiled shyly, handing Inuyasha an invitation.
He shrugged. "Birthday? Who cares?"
"Inuyasha! The day I was born! The people coming to my party are the ones who are going to care." Kagome looked at him, pleadingly. "I would mean a lot to me if you came."
"We'll see, wench," he grumbled, crossing his arms.
She hugged him. "Thank you, Inuyasha! I just know it's going to be the best birthday ever!"
"Eh? Who said I said yes?" Inuyasha snapped at her, squirming in her grasp.
Kagome was too happy to listen to him.

A/N: Please let me know what you think! But be nice and don't flame me, although I am more than happy to get criticisms! I'll update soon, so in the meantime, um. . . just do what you normally do. Take care for now, see ya soon! --halliegirl
