fic..I'll have some comments and answers to questions. Thanks you! Here it
goes....
"Inuyasha we have to find them! They could have gotten kidnapped!! They could have run away!! What'll happen?!" Kagome yelled frantically dragging Inuyasha behind her.
"Kagome---"
"What will my mother do??? Where's my brother?? Did he get kidnapped??" She continued not listening to anything the half-demon said.
"Kagome----"
"What about Mrs. Mizuno??? What..Please let them be okay..Please. please.please..." She said her face turning red running from place to place.
"Listen I-------"
"Sota where are you?! You better not have snuck out!!! Yuki?! Taki?!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.
"QUIT YELLING!!!!" Inuyasha screamed pulling on his ears. "I think this is the worst treatment my ears ever got in my whole life!! At least the yelling part!! You know there sensitive!" He yelled forgetting what he was going to say before.
Kagome sighed and tried to breathe in calmly. "The children are gone....and all you can think about is YOUR EARS?!" She yelled, fury burning within her eyes.
"No! I was going to say something else but if you stop interrupting me than I can actually say it!"
"What do you want?!" She said tightening the grip she had on Inuyasha in the start.
'I know I'm gonna regret this. This may be the only time is holds me but...' Inuyasha thought sadly.
"Let go of me first."
Kagome blushed and pulled her hand away as if his kimono burned her.
'Yup. I regret it alright.' Inuyasha thought.
"What?" Kagome asked referring to Inuyasha's stare.
"Nothing. Anyway, uh....as I was saying....I can just pick up their scent and then-----"
"Why didn't you say that before?" She said quickly.
"Because you were busy yelling everywhere." He mumbled.
"Okay let's get going!" She said waiting for him to sniff their scents out.
***************************************************************
"Ooooohhhh!! Sota can I buy this?" Yuki asked pointing at some bubblegum giving him the puppy eye look.
"Yuki you already bought a whole bunch of stuff." Sota whined. "We've been here for like fifteen minutes already..."
"Plwease?"
"How about this Sota?" said Taki pulling on his shirt with a chocolate bar in his hand.
"Nope you already bought lots of stuff too...I don't have any money left."
"Oh." They said sadly. "No fair."
"We'd better get going, Kagome and Inuyasha must be getting down soon."
"Okay!"
***********************************************************
"Hurry Inuyasha!"
"I'm hurrying, I'm hurrying!!!" He said down on the ground sniffing from place to place and turning on some corners.
"Come on...come on.." Kagome looked like she was about to burst. Never had she been so worried before.
"Don't worry about it Kagome, we'll find them."
"Yea but....."
"We will*. There's not 'but' to that." He responded quietly, then looking up. "There." He pointed, at a small corner store.
Kagome ran as quick as she could to the entrance of the store making the clerk jump up and look at her oddly.
"May I help you------"
"Did you see three kids inside here?"
"Why yes...but----"
"Where are they?"
"They left a few minutes ago......" She responded, looking at Kagome. "Are you...their mother?"
Before Kagome could even answer Inuyasha burst in and began to look around. "Kagome, did you find them?" He asked, with a great deal of worry in his voice.
"Is that the father?"
Kagome blushed began to try and explain.
"Young ones...." The clerk mumbled.
"No I'm only friends with him.." She responded uncomfortably moving her gaze as Inuyasha searched under the bins.
"That's what they all say."
"No you don't understand, he's my brother."
The clerk raised a brow in pure horror. "That man over there...who is the father is your brother?!" She said, pulling away from the counter.
"WHAT... NO!!! I MEAN THE LITTLE KID HERE WAS MY BROTHER!!!"
Inuyasha jumped up. "What happened? KAGOME? WHAT? YOU OKAY?"
"Oh I see...." The clerk sighed. "That was your brother. Well, he left a while ago as I've said."
"Okay. Come on Inuyasha, we'd better get going." She said mumbling something about bad clerks on her way to the exit.
"Coming..Hey Kagome what did that woman say?" He asked as they moved out the entrance. He saw a light blush crawl onto Kagome's cheeks and looked at her oddly.
"Kagome?"
"Uh..nothing." She mumbled.
*****************************************************************
"Well we're home!" Sota said. "Inuyasha!! Kagome!! Come down already!!!" He said yelling loudly.
Sota ran up the stairs and opened the door to Kagome's room. "Kagome?"
His eyes became wide when he saw no one was in the room. "Where could they have gone?" He said to himself.
"Where are Kagome and Inuyosha?" Taki asked.
"Gone." Sota replied shrugging.
"You not worried?" Yuki asked.
"Well no, Inuyasha can protect her if something happens....maybe they went out!!!" He said jumping up.
"Out?" Yuki asked not knowing his meaning.
"You know on a date?"
"Date?" Taki echoed having no clue whatsoever was going on.
"Forget it....Now that you guys are full, wanna watch some television?" Sota said happily running towards the T.V.
"Sure!" They replied.
"Okay I'll watch some----"
"I want barney!" They screamed in unison.
"B-B-B-B-A-A-A-RR-N-EY?" Sota stuttered. "Uh...we don't have cable.eheh.heheh..."
"That's okay!" Yuki said. "Mom bought us the videos!! Each one is five hours!!" She said holding up five fingers.
"F-F-F-F-IVE HOURS?" He screamed. "No! The television is broken and-----"
"Here it is!!" Taki said turning on the television and putting the video in. Sota's eyes became wide with horror when a certain purple dinosaur appeared on television.
"You know there's really something better to watch---"
"No!! Barney is cool!!"
"Yea cool!!!"
"Power Rangers?"
"NOOO!"
"Street Fighters?"
"NOO!!"
"Please???"
"NOOO!"
*****************************************************************
Inuyasha continued to sniff his way in the area. Then he got up and stared at Kagome.
"Kagome, this scent is leading back to the house. They must of went back."
"Are you sure?" Kagome asked trying to make sure there was no mistake.
"Almost positive."
"Let's go."
"We'll get there faster if I just carry you."
'Yea, right all you want to do is hold her.' Said a voice in his head.
'Heh I don't like a little human like her.' Said another.
'Sure..sure..' said one very sarcastically. 'You shut up!'
Inuyasha shook his head and tried to get the thoughts out of his mind.
"Kagome?" He said getting down on his knees, with his back towards her. Kagome timidly got on his back and they sped back to the house. Kagome couldn't help but blush the whole way.
'Get a hold of yourself. He loves Kikyo, not you. Why are you blushing? He feels nothing for you.' She thought trying to consult with herself.
'Tell her how you feel.' Inuyasha thought. 'Wait, Kikyo...what about her..?'
Kagome shifted uncomfortably and sighed. Inuyasha, thinking that she was in distress slowed down.
"What is it Kagome? You want me to slow down so you can change to a better position?" He asked softly.
"It's okay, its not that. Just...uh....thinking is all."
"I'm sure they'll be home." Inuyasha responded thinking that was what she was thinking about.
"Uhm...yea..." She responded holding him tighter.
'Why are you being so nice to her? She's nothing but a human. You can't risk getting mixed up in that kind of thing..and you know, I know you are enjoying every single minute of her holding you.' He told himself trying to control the power of her scent.
'Calm down.' Kagome chided herself. 'There's no way you'll end up with him.'
Inuyasha then stopped and kneeled to let Kagome off his back. "Well let's go check in the house." He said walking up to the wooden door of the shrine.
He pushed the door opened and sure enough in the living room there were three children watching a...big black box thing. 'What the heck is that?' He thought.
Kagome came in and smiled. She didn't know whether to be happy because they were home or to be angry because they left.
"I love you. You love me." Yuki and Taki sung running around the house.
Sota began to pull at his hair and he started breathe in and out more deeply.
"HELLLP!!!!" He screamed running around to the door spotting Inuyasha and Kagome.
"SIS!!! INUYASHA!!! KILL THAT PURPLE DINOSAUR THING!!! ARRRRRRGGGGGG!!!"
Kagome looked at him and crossed her arms across her chest. "Where were you?"
"Huh? We went to get some food at that corner store we always go to! Where were you guys? Going out?"
Kagome blushed. "N-no."
"And a great big hug!!" Yuki continued. (A/N Sorry if I don't get the words right...^__^ I'm not expert at that..I hate that show, but when I baby sit my little cousin I'm forced to watch...The horror.. ^_~)
Sota clenched his fists and growled. "I can't stand that song!!!"
"You know you used to watch that before."
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!!"
"BARNEY!!!" Taki yelled happily.
"Arrrrgggg.." Sota groaned in frustration.
Inuyasha didn't listen to Sota and Kagome's conversation. Instead, he was busy examining the 'black box' and wondering where it came from.
"Hey kid what's that?" He said pointing at the big purple blob on the television.
"BARNEY!"
"Berney..?" He said sitting next to the speakers.
"COME ON KIDS!! LET'S SHARE!!!" The purple lug said.
Inuyasha turned to look at the television and came face to face with the purple 'blob'.
"SHARING IS CARING..IT CAN BE FUN! LET'S SHARE WITH OUR FRIENDS!" It screamed.
"ACCCK! WHAT THE HECK?!" He said looking at the television. "What is that some type of sick demon?!" he said, backing away from the screen.
"IT'S....BARNEY!!!" The kids chimed.
"Eheheheheh......Odd future people.." He mumbled walking up to Kagome.
"Well we know their safe now." He said sighing.
"Yup. Sota knows he can't go out anymore." She replied. Inuyasha smiled at her and nodded. It was fun being alone with her, even if they were frantically looking for some crazed kids.
"I'm going to go check on the three..Back in a flash okay?"
"Okay."
'I hope those kids don't ruin the time I've got with you.' He thought.
*************************************************************
It was midnight. MIDNIGHT*. And they were still* watching the horror movie that had the gruesome title of... 'Barney.' It was the end of about the 50th episode that day and Kagome was fast asleep on the sofa.
Inuyasha had his eyes wide open cursing at the television holding his fist hard. If he held it any harder he might have cut himself.
'Gods, how could Kagome sleep through all this 'sharing' crap with a big purple thing with green spots keeps singing?' He thought, continued to mumble curses at the dinosaur.
Sota kept pulling on his hair and clenching his fists frantically jumping left to right.
"I CAN'T TAKE THIS!" Sota screamed. Yuki and Taki just looked at him.
"I love you..You love.." The television chimed.
"ARRRGGGG!! SHUT UP!! I HATE YOU!! YOU HATE ME!! LET'S GET TOGETHER AND KILL BARNEY!!!" He sung in the melody.
"You can't kill barney!" Taki yelled.
"WATCH ME!" Sota screamed running towards the television like a mad man.
"No!" Yuki said stopping him.
"THIS IS TORTURE!!! I PROMISE I'LL DO ALL MY HOMEWORK BEFORE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES!! I PROMISE NOT TO WASTE MY MONEY!! I'LL-I'LL DO ALL MY CHORES!! JUST GET RID OF BARNEY!!" He screamed in agony. Sota turned and looked at the clock.
"Midnight? Already?" Sota said in shock jumping up. "I watched BARNEY from two until MIDNIGHT?!" He screamed.
Yuki yawned. "I'm sleepy..." She said, before falling onto the floor completely knocked out. Not long after, Taki fell right next to her.
"Come on kids! Let's go and play hide and seek!" Yelled the television.
Sota ran up and turned off the television. "MWHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! NO MORE BARNEY!! NO MORE BARNEY!! NO MORE---"
"Shhh!" Inuyasha said putting his hand over Sota's mouth. "The two are sleeping if they wake up we may never get any sleep."
'And MORE importantly,' Inuyasha thought to himself, 'my Kagome is asleep. Wait a sec...Did I say..my? Where the heck did I get that from? That girl is definitely not my woman..'
'Yea she is.' Said another voice.
"Okay I'm just gonna go ahead and go to sleep. See you around Inuyasha." He said running up the stairs leaving Inuyasha with three sleeping humans.
"If I didn't pity that kid so much about all the berney he watched I would I dragged him back down here...." Inuyasha mumbled picking up Taki and Yuki and going up the stairs.
He opened the wooden door and found Sota sound asleep on his bed with the sheets all tucked around him.
'Poor kid.' Inuyasha thought to himself, placing Yuki and Taki down on the mat.
"You know, these kids are kind of cute when they're not running around like little demons." He whispered smiling a bit.
'Kagome...She's downstairs.' He thought walking out of the room and down the stairs.
When he arrived she was still sound asleep, curled up on the sofa. Inuyasha stopped to look at her and sighed. 'She's a lot calmer in her sleep....Where she can't yell at me....can't sit me.' He thought happily.
"Mhhhmmm.." Kagome sighed rolling to her side as Inuyasha shifted his gaze with her.
"I better take her upstairs...." He said to himself, picking her up in to his arms. It was much different actually carrying her in his arms then just running around from place to place with her on his back.
'Heh, I wish things were always this calm. But in this life, nothing goes right.'
He walked into Kagome's room and laid her on top of her bed and gazing at her once more.
"I'd better go to sleep...I'll be up early tomorrow those kids will be up early too." He said to himself before lying on the ground waiting for sleep to come to him.
************************************************************
"MORNING SOTA!!!!" Taki said happily pulling on Sota. Sota bolted out of bed.
"That was the WORST nightmare in all of my life.."
"What was it about?"
*Flashback*
"I love you..You love me..." Said that evil purple dinosaur on television looking straight into his eyes.
"ACCCKK NOOOO!!!"
*End Flashback*
Sota fell back into bed. "Oh the horror!!"
"Sota?"
******************************************************************
Kagome got up out of bed and yawned. Inuyasha seemed to be very tired when she looked at him. 'I wonder how the rest of the night went.' She thought while she watched the sleeping half-demon in his sleep.
She smiled a bit. 'I hope the two weren't too much for him.' She thought watching one of his ears scrunch a bit. She giggled as she saw them move. She loved his ears...Problem was, he hated it when people petted them. At least, he'd always be angry after. She got up out of her bed to get a closer look at him when his eyes wrinkled open.
"K-Kagome?" He said groggily moving up and rubbing his head. "I think I bumped my head on that chair." He groaned looking at the ground.
"How'd the rest of the night go?"
"You mean last night? The kids got to bed at midnight.."
"MIDNIGHT?"
Inuyasha yawned. "Yup." He said not able to get up.
"I'm sorry I was really sleepy I----"
"It's alright...........I don't mind." He said still rubbing his eyes and lying back down on the floor and closing his eyes yet again.
'He must be really tired. I better go and talk to him.' She thought sitting by his supposedly sleeping form.
Inuyasha cracked open an eye and looked at her. "Kagome? Something wrong?" He whispered, alarmed that she was all of a sudden next to him.
"Nope. Uhm, do you want me to make you some ramen?"
Inuyasha couldn't even stay up for that, he just fell back asleep.
"You must be really tired Inuyasha. Turning down a bowl of ramen.." She said smiling at him. "Thanks." She whispered, knowing that he brought her up to her room while she was sleeping the night before.
"Mhhhmm...."
Kagome got up and sneaked out to open the door and closed it leaving the exhausted half-demon inside her bedroom.
"HI KAGOME!!!!!!!!" Yuki yelled happily.
"Shh..Inuyasha's sleeping." She said putting a finger to her lips.
Yuki and Taki nodded and smiled. "Where's Sota?"
"He won't get out of bed!" They responded.
'Even he's* tired? That's impossible.' She thought.
"What exactly went on last night?"
"Uhm, nothing...all we did was watch barney!!!"
Kagome grimaced when they reached that horrid name. 'I'm glad I fell asleep.' She thought.
"Oh... I see." She said walking into her brother's room with the two not far behind her.
Inside, there was a little boy under the sheets as tired as could be and mumbling something about evil dinosaurs and possessed children. Kagome looked at him worriedly and sighed. He was tossing and turning in his bed but it was obvious something extremely* bothersome occurred the night before. Kagome thought it was probably an overdose of "Barney."
"Am I the only one awake?"
"Nope! We are too!" The children responded. Kagome nodded and glanced at them.
'If they can tire Inuyasha....I'm in for big trouble.' She thought nervously.
"Kagome?" They asked.
"Yes?" She answered with a tone of worry in her voice.
"We're hungry. Can we go out and buy something?"
"Sure.....I'll just grab my coat and I'll be right there." She said leaving a note for Sota and Inuyasha.
*************************************************************
They ran across the street and there were people all around the road. "Extra extra read all about it!!" yelled a man in casual suit.
"There! Let's go there and buy some food!"
Kagome and the two children entered the store and bought what they needed.
"Apple Jacks!" Yuki said happily holding onto the box and putting it in the cart.
Kagome looked around and bought some snacks for Sota and lots of Ramen for Inuyasha for when she got home.
"Hey there little lady!" said a salesman right in front of the store. Kagome looked up confused.
"Excuse me?"
"Would you like to hear the news?" He said happily holding up a piece of paper.
"No thank you." She said politely. The man didn't listen however. He just kept right on going.
"Well miss there's a carnival this Friday! Come one, come all! Don't you and these two little children want to go?"
"YES KAGOME LET'S GO!!"
"PLEASE???!!!"
"Uhm........."

"You know you used to watch that before."
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!!"
"BARNEY!!!" Taki yelled happily.
"Arrrrgggg.." Sota groaned in frustration.
Inuyasha didn't listen to Sota and Kagome's conversation. Instead, he was busy examining the 'black box' and wondering where it came from.
"Hey kid what's that?" He said pointing at the big purple blob on the television.

"I CAN'T TAKE THIS!" Sota screamed. Yuki and Taki just looked at him.
"I love you..You love.." The television chimed.
"ARRRGGGG!! SHUT UP!! I HATE YOU!! YOU HATE ME!! LET'S GET TOGETHER AND KILL BARNEY!!!" He sung in the melody.
"You can't kill barney!" Taki yelled.
"WATCH ME!" Sota screamed running towards the television like a mad man.
"No!" Yuki said stopping him.
"THIS IS TORTURE!!! I PROMISE I'LL DO ALL MY HOMEWORK BEFORE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES!! I PROMISE NOT TO WASTE MY MONEY!! I'LL-I'LL DO ALL MY CHORES!! JUST GET RID OF BARNEY!!" He screamed in agony. Sota turned and looked at the clock.
"Midnight? Already?" Sota said in shock jumping up. "I watched BARNEY from two until MIDNIGHT?!" He screamed.
Yuki yawned. "I'm sleepy..." She said, before falling onto the floor completely knocked out. Not long after, Taki fell right next to her.
"Come on kids! Let's go and play hide and seek!" Yelled the television.
Sota ran up and turned off the television. "MWHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! NO MORE BARNEY!! NO MORE BARNEY!! NO MORE---"
"Shhh!" Inuyasha said putting his hand over Sota's mouth. "The two are sleeping if they wake up we may never get any sleep."
'And MORE importantly,' Inuyasha thought to himself, 'my Kagome is asleep. Wait a sec...Did I say..my? Where the heck did I get that from? That girl is definitely not my woman..'
'Yea she is.' Said another voice.
"Okay I'm just gonna go ahead and go to sleep. See you around Inuyasha." He said running up the stairs leaving Inuyasha with three sleeping humans.
"If I didn't pity that kid so much about all the berney he watched I would I dragged him back down here...." Inuyasha mumbled picking up Taki and Yuki and going up the stairs.
He opened the wooden door and found Sota sound asleep on his bed with the sheets all tucked around him.
'Poor kid.' Inuyasha thought to himself, placing Yuki and Taki down on the mat.
"You know, these kids are kind of cute when they're not running around like little demons." He whispered smiling a bit.
'Kagome...She's downstairs.' He thought walking out of the room and down the stairs.
When he arrived she was still sound asleep, curled up on the sofa. Inuyasha stopped to look at her and sighed. 'She's a lot calmer in her sleep....Where she can't yell at me....can't sit me.' He thought happily.
"Mhhhmmm.." Kagome sighed rolling to her side as Inuyasha shifted his gaze with her.
"I better take her upstairs...." He said to himself, picking her up in to his arms. It was much different actually carrying her in his arms then just running around from place to place with her on his back.
'Heh, I wish things were always this calm. But in this life, nothing goes right.'
He walked into Kagome's room and laid her on top of her bed and gazing at her once more.
"I'd better go to sleep...I'll be up early tomorrow those kids will be up early too." He said to himself before lying on the ground waiting for sleep to come to him.
************************************************************
"MORNING SOTA!!!!" Taki said happily pulling on Sota. Sota bolted out of bed.
"That was the WORST nightmare in all of my life.."
"What was it about?"
*Flashback*
"I love you..You love me..." Said that evil purple dinosaur on television looking straight into his eyes.
"ACCCKK NOOOO!!!"
*End Flashback*
Sota fell back into bed. "Oh the horror!!"
"Sota?"
******************************************************************
Kagome got up out of bed and yawned. Inuyasha seemed to be very tired when she looked at him. 'I wonder how the rest of the night went.' She thought while she watched the sleeping half-demon in his sleep.
She smiled a bit. 'I hope the two weren't too much for him.' She thought watching one of his ears scrunch a bit. She giggled as she saw them move. She loved his ears...Problem was, he hated it when people petted them. At least, he'd always be angry after. She got up out of her bed to get a closer look at him when his eyes wrinkled open.
"K-Kagome?" He said groggily moving up and rubbing his head. "I think I bumped my head on that chair." He groaned looking at the ground.
"How'd the rest of the night go?"
"You mean last night? The kids got to bed at midnight.."
"MIDNIGHT?"
Inuyasha yawned. "Yup." He said not able to get up.
"I'm sorry I was really sleepy I----"
"It's alright...........I don't mind." He said still rubbing his eyes and lying back down on the floor and closing his eyes yet again.
'He must be really tired. I better go and talk to him.' She thought sitting by his supposedly sleeping form.
Inuyasha cracked open an eye and looked at her. "Kagome? Something wrong?" He whispered, alarmed that she was all of a sudden next to him.
"Nope. Uhm, do you want me to make you some ramen?"
Inuyasha couldn't even stay up for that, he just fell back asleep.
"You must be really tired Inuyasha. Turning down a bowl of ramen.." She said smiling at him. "Thanks." She whispered, knowing that he brought her up to her room while she was sleeping the night before.
"Mhhhmm...."
Kagome got up and sneaked out to open the door and closed it leaving the exhausted half-demon inside her bedroom.
"HI KAGOME!!!!!!!!" Yuki yelled happily.
"Shh..Inuyasha's sleeping." She said putting a finger to her lips.
Yuki and Taki nodded and smiled. "Where's Sota?"
"He won't get out of bed!" They responded.
'Even he's* tired? That's impossible.' She thought.
"What exactly went on last night?"
"Uhm, nothing...all we did was watch barney!!!"
Kagome grimaced when they reached that horrid name. 'I'm glad I fell asleep.' She thought.
"Oh... I see." She said walking into her brother's room with the two not far behind her.
Inside, there was a little boy under the sheets as tired as could be and mumbling something about evil dinosaurs and possessed children. Kagome looked at him worriedly and sighed. He was tossing and turning in his bed but it was obvious something extremely* bothersome occurred the night before. Kagome thought it was probably an overdose of "Barney."
"Am I the only one awake?"
"Nope! We are too!" The children responded. Kagome nodded and glanced at them.
'If they can tire Inuyasha....I'm in for big trouble.' She thought nervously.
"Kagome?" They asked.
"Yes?" She answered with a tone of worry in her voice.
"We're hungry. Can we go out and buy something?"
"Sure.....I'll just grab my coat and I'll be right there." She said leaving a note for Sota and Inuyasha.
*************************************************************
They ran across the street and there were people all around the road. "Extra extra read all about it!!" yelled a man in casual suit.
"There! Let's go there and buy some food!"
Kagome and the two children entered the store and bought what they needed.
"Apple Jacks!" Yuki said happily holding onto the box and putting it in the cart.
Kagome looked around and bought some snacks for Sota and lots of Ramen for Inuyasha for when she got home.
"Hey there little lady!" said a salesman right in front of the store. Kagome looked up confused.
"Excuse me?"
"Would you like to hear the news?" He said happily holding up a piece of paper.
"No thank you." She said politely. The man didn't listen however. He just kept right on going.
"Well miss there's a carnival this Friday! Come one, come all! Don't you and these two little children want to go?"
"YES KAGOME LET'S GO!!"
"PLEASE???!!!"
"Uhm........."
