I liked the last chapter, but as you noticed, I think I'm having some trouble keeping Kagome OOC. . . Let's just say she suffers from mood swings or something.
DISCLAIMER: Inuyasha is not mine! (I wish it was but it's not!) I only own this small fanfic here. . . and some DVDs, manga, art books, wallscrolls, drawings, etc. But that doesn't count, so sue me. . . no, don't sue me.
RIVAL
Chapter 5: It's Always the Ears . . .
Story so far: Kagome, Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku end up staying at the Higurashi shrine for a night . . . but something unexpected, yet normal for Inuyasha, happens. Miroku ends up falling asleep in the wrong bed and ended up sleeping the whole night with Sango . . .
Inuyasha slapped his forehead, "I was wondering why you weren't doing anything perverted, talk about Grand Finale."
Sango blushed even deeper if possible, "You stupid ass perverted, son of a bitch!" Sango kicked him a few more times, fuming AND blushing.
"I believe that's enough, Sango. I think he's had enough." Kagome tried to calm her down. 'Oh boy, it's gonna be a looong day.'
"Y-yes, Sango, I-I believe th-that I've had enough." Miroku said with his head smashed into the futon.
"NO YOU HAVEN'T!!! EAT FOOT, MONK!!!" Sango yelled smashing her foot into the back of his head.
'Good thing he's on the futon.' "Okay, Sango, as much as I enjoy watching this lech take beatings, I think he'll die soon." Inuyasha said grabbing her arms and pulling her back.
Kagome let out a sigh, "I'll start breakfast." She said as she walked to the kitchen.
Sango sat at the edge of the room watching and making sure that Miroku didn't come an inch closer to her. 'What the hell is that perv thinking!? Wasn't it obvious enough that I was sleeping in that futon!?' She thought angrily to herself.
riiiiiiiiiiing riiiiiiiiiiing "I'll get it!" Kagome yelled from the kitchen.
"Hello, this is the Higurashi Shrine, how may I help you?" Kagome said sounding very much like a salesman.
"Oh, hi, Mrs. Sugawara." Kagome rolled her eyes, "Yes, yes, oh, they're here with me, yes I'll be sure to tell them, alright, bye." Kagome practically slammed the phone on the hook.
"Baka kuso!" (stupid shit) (( A/N: sorry, I just love that!) Kagome yelled at no one in general, but everyone heard anyways.
"What is it?" Sango asked getting up from her spot.
"We're going to Jidai High," Kagome looked down, 'Damn, this day just gets worse and worse!' {{ yeah, Jidai High is used a lot in fanfics, sorry!!! I can't think of anything else }}
"WHAT!? Of all the places in the world, it HAS to be THAT place!!!" Inuyasha threw his hands up in the air in disbelief.
Kagome only sighed and walked back into the kitchen to finish making breakfast.
Miroku and Inuyasha sighed simultaneously, "Sheesh, how the hell are we going to go back to our parents now when we gotta go to that school!?" Miroku exclaimed.
All of a sudden, everyone heard a SLAM! And they all felt the ground shake. Miroku and Inuyasha looked at each other. Sango went to the kitchen and saw Kagome's knuckle's bleeding, she punched the wall. 'Is Jidai High that bad of a school?' Sango thought as she left to give Kagome some air.
A few minutes later, Kagome came out of the kitchen carrying several plates and a large serving dish with scrambled eggs, musubi's, etc.
"Whoa, you're good, Kagome." Miroku said inching closer to Sango.
"Get the hell away from me, monk" Sango said in a deadly voice. Miroku was feet away instantly.
"Well, let's eat!" Inuyasha said with food already in his mouth as he eyed Kagome's knuckle's, 'I suppose no one likes Jidai High.'
"Shit, I am not looking forward to tomorrow (Monday). First day of school," Kagome said flatly, "What joy this brings me," she added in sarcasm.
"Tell me about it, I'll probably get mean lickin's from my parents when I go home." Sango said laying down.
Miroku let out another sigh, "This sucks, we should go to the principal of . . . 'Jidai' High." Miroku suggested.
"Yeah, we should do all of that confirming crap." Kagome sighed as well.
"Well, let's go." Sango said getting up.
They knew very well where Jidai High was, it was one of the most known schools in Japan.
Inuyasha sniffed the air, "Rain," he said to no one in particular. Everyone just looked at him in confusion. Not long after, it started to rain. 'Not like I'm ever wrong . . .' Inuyasha made a face and continued walking. Kagome and Sango looked at each other, Sango just shrugged. "And I said I thought this day couldn't get worse." Kagome looked blankly ahead and let out a sigh, "No sense to try and get out of the rain now."
"Yeah, we're practically soaked already." Miroku looked at his old school uniform, then took a peek at Sango and noticed that she had a white shirt on. 'Whoa!' Miroku thought as he began to turn red.
Sango felt someone watching her, she turned to the side only to find Miroku gaping at her . . . well, chest. Her eyes widened in anger, "KEEP YOUR FILTHY EYES TO YOURSELF YOU PERVERT!!!" She high kicked Miroku's face, who's nose began to bleed instantly, and yelled in anger. Miroku laid on the ground in pain, 'I-It was worth it . . .' he thought as he blacked out.
"Hahaha, Sango, as funny as that is, it IS raining and . . . he's well . . . you could say he's taking a little dip in the puddle there." Kagome said oddly, but it was true, he WAS in a very large puddle that was pretty deep.
Inuyasha let out a sigh, "Don't worry, that's nothing compared to when he becomes REALLY perverted."
Kagome and Sango stared at Inuyasha with wide eyes, "Hey, I'm not kidding." Inuyasha said, their eyes only widened, if that was possible. Inuyasha sweat dropped, "Umm . . . I'll . . . just start dragging Miroku . . . uhh, let's go!" Inuyasha said as he grabbed Miroku's foot and started dragging him to Jidai High. 'Damn, what's so scary? He's only . . . wait . . . they ARE women . . . feh, girls are so weak. Actually any girl would be scared of someone as perverted as Miroku.' Inuyasha paused, 'Well, whatever, not my problem, he ain't gay . . . or I hope not.' Inuyasha shuddered at the thought and pushed it out of his head.
It wasn't long that they finally reached Jidai High, "Well, here we are." Inuyasha announced. Then Inuyasha noticed he was still dragging Miroku, he sweat dropped, "OH WOW!!! LOOK AT HER!!! Ain't she FINE?" Inuyasha said with "fine" emphasized, 'that should do it,' he thought. Instantly Miroku popped up, didn't even take a second, "WHERE WHERE WHERE!?" Miroku looked around frantically. Everyone sweat dropped. "INUYASHA!!!" Miroku cried as he grabbed his head and fell to his knees.
Inuyasha just laughed.
"WHY MUST YOU TORMENT ME!?" Miroku said as he squeezed his head.
"Keh, I just had a feeling that'd wake ya up." Inuyasha smirked and started walking and everyone followed. They passed Miroku and gave him weird looks.
'Man, this place freaks the shit outta me. Feels like the campus is surging or pulsing or something . . .' Inuyasha took a look around unsure, 'I don't sense any presences, it's probably just the rain freaking me out.' He thought as he continued to walk. 'Don't smell nothin' odd either . . .' {{ get a clue! I'm hinting something!!! XD }}
A chill ran down Kagome's spine, 'Damn, what was that? I only get that when there's something wrong here . . . Jeez, I must be out of it today . . .' She shrugged it off and continued walking.
'What's up with this place? I have some funky feeling about it,' Sango thought to herself and made a face, ' . . . Did I say "Funky"? Jeez, something must be wrong with me,' Sango thought and payed attention to where she was walking.
'I feel something strange in the air . . . did someone fart?' Miroku thought dumbly, 'Heh, probably not, perhaps it's . . . a DEMON! . . . no wait, that can't be. Oh wait, that was my stomach . . .' Miroku laughed at himself and continued walking. (( A/N: I'm sorry! I HAD to do that! Miroku is like the comical relief! Just bear with me please. ))
{{ Ironic, ne? }}
When they got to the entrance, everyone stopped at the same time, "This building gives me the creeps," Kagome said softly.
"Yeah, I feel the same way," Sango said.
"Never mind, let's just go." Inuyasha said and was kind of surprised they felt something weird too, 'Good, now I know I'm not crazy . . .'
'Ooh, so that's what I felt . . . but still, I am hungry . . .' Miroku smiled inwardly.
As soon as they walked through the doors, a strong wind blew around them, and engulfed Miroku's right hand. He gritted his teeth and tried to close his palm with all his strength.
"Miroku!" Kagome yelled as she tried to run to his aid, but was only knocked back by the same wind. Then surprisingly, the wind engulfed Inuyasha's body as well. Inuyasha gritted his teeth as hard as he could and both of his hands went into fists, blood dripped from his fists as he clenched it harder and harder.
"What the hell is going on, Sango!?" Kagome tried to yell over the wind as she got up, she could barely stand because the wind was so strong.
"I have no idea!" Sango yelled over the wind trying to stay balanced too.
Miroku grabbed his right wrist with his left hand and tried to pull it down the ground, 'Why? Why now? Why here!?" Miroku thought in confusion.
Inuyasha's eyes were glowing a bright red and even more blood was dripping from his hands, 'I-I can't control my form!' He gritted his teeth even more as he felt his hands tingling.
'What the hell is going on!? What's happening to Inuyasha and Miroku!? Why isn't anything happening to me and Sango!?" Kagome thought too confused to do anything. Then she felt a strong pain in her right shoulder, she quickly grabbed it and took her hand back, and only saw a blood stained hand. "What the fuck!?" Kagome yelled.
Sango turned and looked at Kagome, 'Wait a minute! That isn't right!!! I thought that-' Her thoughts were cut off by a sharp pain in her back, she turned and looked at her back, all she could see was a kunai, used by the Demon Slayers. "Shit," Sango cursed as she saw an image from her past. Blood driped from her back and soaked her uniform.
Miroku new what was coming, he took his left hand to his pocket and took out a long light blue-ish rosary and wrapped it around his hand. The wind didn't stop, but the pain did. He looked at Inuyasha, 'He can't control it.' He thought as he heard the sound of blood dripping, he looked at Kagome and Sango who were bleeding an immense amount of blood. 'Something isn't right! Kagome shouldn't be . . .' "Sango!" He yelled going to Sango who was on her hands and knees, bleeding. Miroku took the Kunai out of her back, and then it disappeared, "An illusion?" He asked no one in particular. He looked at the hole in her uniform, there was only a scar.
Kagome still clutched her shoulder in pain, "What the hell's happening!?" She yelled, she couldn't stand the pain, or the wind. She couldn't balance anymore and just fell to the ground. Her vision was blurry, she couldn't even make out the ground in front of her face, 'I-I don't understand what's going on.' Kagome stayed awake a little while longer, 'I can't stay awake for long . . .' she looked up to Miroku and Sango, they were fine. She looked weakly to Inuyasha, 'Boy, he ain't fine . . .' she thought weakly as all she could do was watch; she was too weak to even move her head any further.
Inuyasha couldn't contain his form anymore; he let his true form arise. His human black hair was slowly turning into a shiny silvery white, his eyes were glowing bright red once again and his ears were getting pointed. 'Wh-what's going on? What's happening?' Kagome thought as she watched Inuyasha transform. Soon, his fingers became claws and his once black hair was now silvery white, and his eyes were no longer lavender, but gold . . . 'Th-the ears?' Kagome thought as she blacked out.
"So that was you, Sango?" Inuyasha asked.
"Y-yeah . . . ironic isn't it? Us three, same place, same time, everything!" Sango said in surprise.
"But why did Kagome bleed? She hasn't even been there before!" Miroku exclaimed. "Why here?" He said looking at his right hand.
"I don't know," Inuyasha said slowly, "I don't understand either."
"Good thing that was only an illusion," Sango sighed, 'It wasn't MY blood, it wasn't even blood! But why did Kagome black out then?' She looked at Kagome who was stirring.
"Kagome, are you alright?" Miroku bent down to her side, "Don't worry, the blood wasn't real, it was an illusion." He said looking at her shoulder, a big gash in her uniform was there, that was about all. "Well, you look okay . . . besides your face. Are you okay?"
"Y-yeah, I'll be fine," Kagome held her head, "but what happened?"
"We still don't know." Inuyasha said looking down the hallway of the school entrance.
"That's right! You transformed or something didn't you?" Kagome said still confused.
"Feh, yeah, I guess you could say that." Inuyasha still had his back faced toward her.
"Your ears! They're so, so . . ." Kagome didn't finish.
"They're so what?" Inuyasha turned around . . . Kagome wasn't there . . . "What the," tweak tweak tweak tweak Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"Wow! They're so soft!" Kagome squealed. 'Jeez, I don't think she is okay, maybe she had a head injury or something.' Inuyasha rolled his eyes and put his hands into his sleeves.
"Yeah, it's always about the ears . . ." Inuyasha made a face. Miroku couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, okay, are we gonna go or what?" Inuyasha said walking away. Kagome only smiled.
"Do you think Kagome is okay, I mean, she NEVER acts like this " Sango whispered to Miroku.
"Really? Everyone likes Inuyasha's ears for some reason " Miroku whispered back.
"Y'know, I can hear every word you guys are saying, and I am very aware of what both of you said is true." Inuyasha glared at them.
"HOLD UP!" Kagome yelled as she got her moods in place.
"What is it, Kagome-chan?" Sango asked.
"We are NOT going anywhere until I get some straight answers." Kagome stood stiff and wouldn't move.
"I . . . I guess she does deserve some answers." Miroku said honestly.
"SOME!? SOME!?" Kagome fumed.
"Okay, okay, okay, you do deserve all the answers, well the ones we know anyway." Miroku corrected himself.
"Thank you." Kagome said calmly.
'Talk about mood swings . . .' Miroku thought.
"What was that, Miroku?" Kagome glared.
"Wh-what!? Oh, um, nothing." Miroku said stuttering, 'What the-she- she herd?'
"NOW WHERE ARE MY FUCKING ANSWERS!!!???" Kagome yelled at Miroku. 'Good, she didn't hear that . . .' Miroku thought again.
"HEAR WHAT!?" Kagome fumed again.
"NOTHING." Miroku answered instantly. Miroku told himself to stop thinking and just tell her already.
Inuyasha looked at the two in confusion, 'Somethin' is surely out of place here.' Inuyasha thought.
"Okay, Kagome," Miroku sighed, "are you positive you want to know?"
Kagome merely glared at him.
"I'll take that as a yes." Miroku stepped back and sweat dropped.
"AHEM," Inuyasha stepped in, "Since Miroku only wants to stall, I'll begin to explain." Inuyasha glared the monk behind him who only smiled; Inuyasha rolled his eyes in return. "Well, for starters, we, Miroku, Sango, and myself, aren't from this era." 'Judging by her face, she's confused already,' Inuyasha thought.
"Damn right," Kagome glared.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!" Inuyasha stepped back, "You herd my thoughts, man!"
"W-wuh?" Now Kagome took a step back. She didn't even realize that was their thoughts she heard. "Wait a sec! When did that happen!?"
"Holy crap, beats me!" Inuyasha said in surprise. "Okay, okay, okay, off subject, let's sit down, this will take a while." Inuyasha said as he sat in the hallway as everyone joined him.
"Uhh, how do you say this . . . We're not from your time, we're from the past." Sango stated.
"Oh, I see, I see, but how did you-" Kagome started.
"We were sent here actually." Inuyasha butted in.
"Why?" Kagome asked.
"We're on a mission you could say." Miroku answered.
"Our mission is to search and destroy a demon, one who traveled back into your time and threatens to wipe out all humans and half demons." Inuyasha said oddly, his saying that his own race was going to be wiped out by a single demon was a bit odd to him.
"And who is this almighty idiot who will do that?" Kagome asked seriously.
"Umm, that's one problem, we don't' know who, and that's what we have to find out. This person-I mean, demon probably has accomplices and allies and will more than likely assist." Miroku said coolly.
"I see . . ."
"But there's another thing we're worrying about right now . . ." Sango said as she looked to the ground. Kagome just gave her friend a confused look.
"We don't know why you were involved in that incident earlier. I mean, all the stuff that happened to us because we had a spell casted upon us to conceal our, what you could say, 'true being'." Inuyasha paused, "Like for me, the spell concealed my hanyou (half demon) form and kept me in a human form. For Miroku, the spell kept his Kazaana (wind tunnel) concealed in his right hand and it couldn't be activated. For Sango, the spell kept her scar concealed and invisible. You dig?"
"Yeah, I understand. But how long would the spell last?" Kagome tilted her head, "and why was I in that 'incident'?"
"Keh, the caster of this spell was pretty damn strong if ya ask me. I mean, Miroku could get eaten by that Kazaana, but that spell held up pretty darn good." Inuyasha said putting his hands in the air. "And as for you bein' involved in that, we honestly have no clue."
"I see. So . . . what are you exactly?" Kagome tilted her head even further.
". . ." Inuyasha didn't answer, he just merely looked at Miroku, and Miroku understood the silent language.
"Well, in our era, we have a race called "Hanyou" or "Half Breeds," Inuyasha happens to be one of them. Hanyou's are kind of like a hybrid between human and demon, in their hanyou form, you could say they get half of the traits from human and demon side. Like, as you noticed, the ears aren't human, his nose isn't human, his claws aren't human, and his hair color isn't human. His form is pretty much human, gives him a sort of human look. All of his senses are demon though, except his vision, that's pretty much human." Miroku answered.
"Oh, so his human form would only last under that spell thingy right?" Kagome asked curiously.
"Umm, yes!" Miroku said with enthusiasm, "Such a smart girl you are, may I ask a favor of you?"
"No," Kagome glared.
"Oh, alright . . ." Miroku turned around and began to sob. Everyone merely rolled their eyes.
"Well, that's that, now let's get goin', I don't wanna spend the day in here." Inuyasha said getting up.
Everyone agreed and stood up.
A/N: Gah, another iffy one. C & C and R & R whatever please, give me a few pointers.
I liked the last chapter, but as you noticed, I think I'm having some trouble keeping Kagome OOC. . . Let's just say she suffers from mood swings or something.
DISCLAIMER: Inuyasha is not mine! (I wish it was but it's not!) I only own this small fanfic here. . . and some DVDs, manga, art books, wallscrolls, drawings, etc. But that doesn't count, so sue me. . . no, don't sue me.

Kagome still clutched her shoulder in pain, "What the hell's happening!?" She yelled, she couldn't stand the pain, or the wind. She couldn't balance anymore and just fell to the ground. Her vision was blurry, she couldn't even make out the ground in front of her face, 'I-I don't understand what's going on.' Kagome stayed awake a little while longer, 'I can't stay awake for long . . .' she looked up to Miroku and Sango, they were fine. She looked weakly to Inuyasha, 'Boy, he ain't fine . . .' she thought weakly as all she could do was watch; she was too weak to even move her head any further.
Inuyasha couldn't contain his form anymore; he let his true form arise. His human black hair was slowly turning into a shiny silvery white, his eyes were glowing bright red once again and his ears were getting pointed. 'Wh-what's going on? What's happening?' Kagome thought as she watched Inuyasha transform. Soon, his fingers became claws and his once black hair was now silvery white, and his eyes were no longer lavender, but gold . . . 'Th-the ears?' Kagome thought as she blacked out.
"So that was you, Sango?" Inuyasha asked.
"Y-yeah . . . ironic isn't it? Us three, same place, same time, everything!" Sango said in surprise.
"But why did Kagome bleed? She hasn't even been there before!" Miroku exclaimed. "Why here?" He said looking at his right hand.
"I don't know," Inuyasha said slowly, "I don't understand either."
"Good thing that was only an illusion," Sango sighed, 'It wasn't MY blood, it wasn't even blood! But why did Kagome black out then?' She looked at Kagome who was stirring.
"Kagome, are you alright?" Miroku bent down to her side, "Don't worry, the blood wasn't real, it was an illusion." He said looking at her shoulder, a big gash in her uniform was there, that was about all. "Well, you look okay . . . besides your face. Are you okay?"
"Y-yeah, I'll be fine," Kagome held her head, "but what happened?"
"We still don't know." Inuyasha said looking down the hallway of the school entrance.
"That's right! You transformed or something didn't you?" Kagome said still confused.
"Feh, yeah, I guess you could say that." Inuyasha still had his back faced toward her.
"Your ears! They're so, so . . ." Kagome didn't finish.
"They're so what?" Inuyasha turned around . . . Kagome wasn't there . . . "What the," tweak tweak tweak tweak Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"Wow! They're so soft!" Kagome squealed. 'Jeez, I don't think she is okay, maybe she had a head injury or something.' Inuyasha rolled his eyes and put his hands into his sleeves.
"Yeah, it's always about the ears . . ." Inuyasha made a face. Miroku couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, okay, are we gonna go or what?" Inuyasha said walking away. Kagome only smiled.
"Do you think Kagome is okay, I mean, she NEVER acts like this " Sango whispered to Miroku.
"Really? Everyone likes Inuyasha's ears for some reason " Miroku whispered back.
"Y'know, I can hear every word you guys are saying, and I am very aware of what both of you said is true." Inuyasha glared at them.
"HOLD UP!" Kagome yelled as she got her moods in place.
"What is it, Kagome-chan?" Sango asked.
"We are NOT going anywhere until I get some straight answers." Kagome stood stiff and wouldn't move.
"I . . . I guess she does deserve some answers." Miroku said honestly.
"SOME!? SOME!?" Kagome fumed.
"Okay, okay, okay, you do deserve all the answers, well the ones we know anyway." Miroku corrected himself.
"Thank you." Kagome said calmly.
'Talk about mood swings . . .' Miroku thought.
"What was that, Miroku?" Kagome glared.
"Wh-what!? Oh, um, nothing." Miroku said stuttering, 'What the-she- she herd?'
"NOW WHERE ARE MY FUCKING ANSWERS!!!???" Kagome yelled at Miroku. 'Good, she didn't hear that . . .' Miroku thought again.
"HEAR WHAT!?" Kagome fumed again.
"NOTHING." Miroku answered instantly. Miroku told himself to stop thinking and just tell her already.
Inuyasha looked at the two in confusion, 'Somethin' is surely out of place here.' Inuyasha thought.
"Okay, Kagome," Miroku sighed, "are you positive you want to know?"
Kagome merely glared at him.
"I'll take that as a yes." Miroku stepped back and sweat dropped.
"AHEM," Inuyasha stepped in, "Since Miroku only wants to stall, I'll begin to explain." Inuyasha glared the monk behind him who only smiled; Inuyasha rolled his eyes in return. "Well, for starters, we, Miroku, Sango, and myself, aren't from this era." 'Judging by her face, she's confused already,' Inuyasha thought.
"Damn right," Kagome glared.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!" Inuyasha stepped back, "You herd my thoughts, man!"
"W-wuh?" Now Kagome took a step back. She didn't even realize that was their thoughts she heard. "Wait a sec! When did that happen!?"
"Holy crap, beats me!" Inuyasha said in surprise. "Okay, okay, okay, off subject, let's sit down, this will take a while." Inuyasha said as he sat in the hallway as everyone joined him.
"Uhh, how do you say this . . . We're not from your time, we're from the past." Sango stated.
"Oh, I see, I see, but how did you-" Kagome started.
"We were sent here actually." Inuyasha butted in.
"Why?" Kagome asked.
"We're on a mission you could say." Miroku answered.
"Our mission is to search and destroy a demon, one who traveled back into your time and threatens to wipe out all humans and half demons." Inuyasha said oddly, his saying that his own race was going to be wiped out by a single demon was a bit odd to him.
"And who is this almighty idiot who will do that?" Kagome asked seriously.
"Umm, that's one problem, we don't' know who, and that's what we have to find out. This person-I mean, demon probably has accomplices and allies and will more than likely assist." Miroku said coolly.
"I see . . ."
"But there's another thing we're worrying about right now . . ." Sango said as she looked to the ground. Kagome just gave her friend a confused look.
"We don't know why you were involved in that incident earlier. I mean, all the stuff that happened to us because we had a spell casted upon us to conceal our, what you could say, 'true being'." Inuyasha paused, "Like for me, the spell concealed my hanyou (half demon) form and kept me in a human form. For Miroku, the spell kept his Kazaana (wind tunnel) concealed in his right hand and it couldn't be activated. For Sango, the spell kept her scar concealed and invisible. You dig?"
"Yeah, I understand. But how long would the spell last?" Kagome tilted her head, "and why was I in that 'incident'?"
"Keh, the caster of this spell was pretty damn strong if ya ask me. I mean, Miroku could get eaten by that Kazaana, but that spell held up pretty darn good." Inuyasha said putting his hands in the air. "And as for you bein' involved in that, we honestly have no clue."
"I see. So . . . what are you exactly?" Kagome tilted her head even further.
". . ." Inuyasha didn't answer, he just merely looked at Miroku, and Miroku understood the silent language.
"Well, in our era, we have a race called "Hanyou" or "Half Breeds," Inuyasha happens to be one of them. Hanyou's are kind of like a hybrid between human and demon, in their hanyou form, you could say they get half of the traits from human and demon side. Like, as you noticed, the ears aren't human, his nose isn't human, his claws aren't human, and his hair color isn't human. His form is pretty much human, gives him a sort of human look. All of his senses are demon though, except his vision, that's pretty much human." Miroku answered.
"Oh, so his human form would only last under that spell thingy right?" Kagome asked curiously.
"Umm, yes!" Miroku said with enthusiasm, "Such a smart girl you are, may I ask a favor of you?"
"No," Kagome glared.
"Oh, alright . . ." Miroku turned around and began to sob. Everyone merely rolled their eyes.
"Well, that's that, now let's get goin', I don't wanna spend the day in here." Inuyasha said getting up.
Everyone agreed and stood up.
A/N: Gah, another iffy one. C & C and R & R whatever please, give me a few pointers.
