That night, Inuyasha entered his room late. Darkness. "What happened to the lights, monk?" Inuyasha asked. "I've been studying them since we got here. The lights in the other rooms are very similar." Miroku said, calmly. The sound of a loud crash was heard near the door of their room, followed by an irritated hanyou yelling. "Inuyasha? Are you alright?" "I tripped over something! Turn the fucking lights on!" He demanded. "I can't. They appear to be possessed." "Possessed lights?!" "Yes."

"What's going on in here? And why are the lights out?" A young lady asked, creaking the door open. "Sango!" Miroku said, excitedly. Another crash. Miroku tripped over something trying to get to Sango. "Ow! Watch where you're walking!" The hanyou yelled, which made it clear that what Miroku had tripped over was Inuyasha. "Get off of me, monk!" Inuyasha yelled. Silence "Miroku?" Sango asked, hesitantly. More silence. "Miroku! Are you all-- GAH!"
Slap.

The lights flicked on. Miroku was lying on the ground on top of Inuyasha with a red mark in the shape of a hand on his cheek, and Sango was leaning over him with her hand extended as though she had just slapped someone. They all got up. "The lights..." Miroku said, bewildered. "They shine!" He went to observe them, and sighed. "There is still no switch. They are still possessed!" He announced.

Sango glared at him. "Possessed? What are you talking about?" She clapped her hands together, and the lights turned off. She clapped again, and they turned back on. The boys stared at her, amazed. Sango raised an eyebrow. "All of the lights in the mansion respond to hand claps. Don't tell me that you didn't know that." She looked at them. The boys said nothing. "You two are idiots." She scowled, and turned to leave.

Inuyasha blinked. "Hey, what's that?" He asked, pointing at a small white string that seemed to come from her waist area. Sango looked at it, and her face turned red with embarrassment. Miroku blinked. "Well, what is it?" He asked, and Sango stared. They didn't know what it was? "It must be some thread that came off of my jeans or something." She lied, and hurried out the door. The two boys looked at each other, shrugged, had fun testing the lights, and went to bed.

At 2:36 a.m., one of the doors creaked open. A small kitsune tiptoed to Kagome's room, and walked inside as quietly as possible. He hopped up on Kagome's bed and shook her shoulder. "Mommy!" He whispered, quietly in her ear. Kagome moaned and rolled over. Shippou shook her shoulder again, and she opened her eyes wearily. "Shippou?" She asked, and looked at the clock. "Shippou, you shouldn't disturb people this early in the morning." She said, with a yawn.

Shippou looked up at her. "Sorry." He muttered shortly. "That's all right... Now what is it that you want?" Kagome questioned. "I can't get to bed cause I'm hungry, and this place is really big and scary and dark and I don't wanna get lost so can you pretty please come down to the kitchen with me to get a snack?" He asked. Kagome sighed. "Alright, Shippou." She said, getting out of bed. She escorted him down to the kitchen, and got him a snack. Then they both went back to their rooms.

2:52 a.m. Kagome was awakened again. "Shippou? What is it now?" Shippou looked down. "I'm really sorry for waking you up, but I still can't sleep. Can you read me a story? I promise I won't bother you again!" He whispered. Kagome hesitated. "I guess so.." She said, and they both left the room. In the library, Kagome read Shippou his story. "Thanks, Mommy. Good night!" They both went back to their rooms.

3:39 a.m. "I know that I promised not to bother you again, but I need a glass of water and I'm too short to reach the faucet!" "Fine, Shippou..."

4:15 a.m. "I'm really sorry about this Mommy, but can you tuck me in? Please, Mommy?" "Shippou..." "Please?" "Just as long as you promise to go to bed." "I promise!"

8:00 a.m. Kagome felt her shoulder being shook. "Shippou, go to bed!" She yelled, sitting up. "Kagome? It's morning. breakfast is served in an hour." Sango told her. Kagome sighed. "Thanks, Sango. Sorry I yelled, I just thought that you were my son..." She said, with a yawn. "That's alright." Sango replied, with a smile.

An hour later, all twelve of them sat down at the table eating breakfast. Ranma, who had cooked food for almost everyone, was leaning against a wall in the dining room. Akane, who had refused to cook for anyone besides Sesshomaru, was sitting next to him at the table to make sure he ate it all. "Kagome?" Kikyou asked, glancing at her. Kagome looked up. "Huh?" Kikyou blinked. "Kagome, you look terrible. How much sleep did you get last night?" There was a pause. "Kagome?" She asked, but then saw that Kagome was asleep, with her head laid down on the table.

Akane smiled. "Are you enjoying your breakfast, Sesshomaru? I made it especially for you!" Sesshomaru tried his best to put on a smile. "I've never tasted anything that can compare with this, and I mean it." He said, and Akane blushed. "I'm glad you like it!" She exclaimed.

After breakfast, Kagura made her way into the billiard room. There she saw Shippou and Souta playing go fish, Kohaku, Inuyasha, Ranma, and Vash playing pool, and Kouga, Miroku, Sesshomaru, and Sango sitting at a round table playing poker. It took her a bit to realize that Sango was the only girl in the room, besides herself.

Kagura walked over to the poker table. "Can I join in?" She asked. "Sure." Sango replied, and looked at the guys. "You can join next round." She said. Sango won that round, and then Kagura sat down between her and Kouga.

They all drew their cards, and all kept good poker faces. They all bet on a fair amount of cash, save Miroku who backed out. Kouga and Sango both had a full house, Sesshomaru had a straight, and Kagura had a straight in clovers. She had won.

Sango began shuffling the cards. "I've already made a few friends here. It's too bad that we're competing against each other because of Naraku's will..." She sighed. "I stayed because of the shikon no tama. It must be beautiful..." Sango said. Miroku sighed. "Next to you, however, it wouldn't be very impressive." He said, causing Sango to blush. "I chose to stay because of the mansion." Kouga said. "That's why I stayed too." Kagura stated.

Miroku smiled. "I stayed because Lady Sango stayed." He said, and Sango glared at him. He was creeping her out. "There's plenty other girls out there, you know. Why not hit on them? Hm?" She asked, but Miroku just smiled again causing Sango to roll her eyes. "What about you, Sesshomaru?" Kagura asked, looking at him across the table. "Why did you stay?" They all looked at him. "Yeah, you're already rich aren't you?" Miroku blinked. "And you already have a mansion." Sango pointed out. Sesshomaru hesitated.

Inuyasha, who had been listening in, poked his head into the conversation. "He stayed because he wanted to spend some quality time with his brother. Isn't that right, Bro?" Inuyasha asked, with a grin. Sesshomaru twitched. "Yeah, Bro." He said. Inuyasha smiled. "It's so nice to have you as an older brother. Can't you just picture in your mind all of the memories we shared?" He asked, in a slightly taunting way.

When Sesshomaru didn't reply, he chuckled a bit and sat down next to him. "My pool game's over. What are you playing?" He asked. "Poker." Kouga replied. "Ever played bullshit?" Inuyasha asked, and all of them save Sesshomaru shook their heads. "Well, I'll show you." Inuyasha said, and explained the game. The group played it for the next hour or so, then quit.

Sango got up from the table and muttered to herself angrily. She hadn't won a single game, and was using foul language sometimes when she was caught lying. Kagura raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong, Sango?" She asked, then realized something. "Is it that time of the month?" She asked, and Sango hesitantly nodded.

The two girls left, and Inuyasha, Miroku, Sesshomaru, and Kouga all stared at each other in confusion. "Do any of you know what happens to Sango once a month?" Kouga asked, and they all shook their heads. "Think we should investigate?" Inuyasha asked, and they all nodded. "We'd better make sure she doesn't know we're on to her, though... Let's keep a low profile." Miroku stated, and they all agreed with him.

"Bullshit." A small voice said, and they all looked down to see Shippou. Inuyasha glared at him. "Where did you hear that word?!" He demanded, and Shippou blinked. "You were all saying it a lot when you were playing a game. You said it the most, Inuyasha. What does it mean?" He asked, and Inuyasha twitched. "Shippou, don't ever say that word again!" He said. "but--" "Don't ever say it again!" All of them yelled, and Shippou crossed his arms.

"If you won't tell me what it means, then I'll just go ask Mommy. I'll ask her what fuck means, too!" He said, repeating another word that he had heard from Inuyasha, and scurried off. Inuyasha sweatdropped. "Let's go back up to our rooms..."

Warning: If by any slim chance you have never heard those words before, do not repeat them. If you do, I am not to be held responsible. Now, a preview!
