Chapter 4
What is going on here?!
Kagome awoke to a light knocking on a door.
"Mnmm...where am I?" she asked out loud.
'Oh yeah, I remember now...I was jogging and then I got brought back in time by some hanyou guy named Inuyasha. Then I went to sleep so I could wake up in my own bed. Wait a minute! I'm not back in my bed! I'm still here! Oh no!' She thought.
Kagome heard the knocking sound on the door again. She realized that it wasn't the same door that Inuyasha had left through.
Kagome mused to herself, 'Should I get up and answer it? Or should I just wait for Inuyasha to come?'
"Ummm...Who is it?" Kagome asked, while still sitting on the bed.
Before the person knocking could answer, Inuyasha swung open the bathing room door and yelled, "How many times do I have to tell you?! Knock once and then come in!"
Kagome gasped. Inuyasha wasn't wearing a shirt, so she got a chance to see his well built chest again. Inuyasha didn't notice though, he had already crossed the room to the other door and opened it.
Kagome leaned over a little to see who was at the door. There she saw what seemed to be a raccoon, but it standing upright and was wearing female servant's clothes that came down past it's knees. The dress was a dark brown color, and had a little white apron over it.
'It's so cute...,' Kagome thought to herself.
"So?" Inuyasha questioned the servant. "What do you need?"
The servant bowed deeply and spoke, "Master, the clothes you ordered for Your Lady..."
'HIS...lady?' Kagome thought angrily. 'Why I...'
"...have arrived." The servant paused. "What would you like me to do with them, Master?"
Inuyasha thought to himself for a minute before replying, "You can bring the clothes here to my room."
"Yes, Master." The little raccoon left to fetch the clothes.
Inuyasha turned around and for first time seemed to notice that Kagome was awake. "Oi wench, you're finally up?" He asked.
Kagome thought for a brief second on what to say to him. She smirked evilly for a second before sweetly smiling with wide innocent eyes replying, "Yes, Master."
"What the--Don't call me that!" Inuyasha said annoyed.
"Call you what, Master?" Kagome said, still innocently smiling.
"You know what I'm talking about, wench" He said.
"But master, you should not call Your Lady such a thing." She said, mocking him.
"What did you just say?!"
"I know you heard what I said. Master."
"I said don't call me that!"
"Why not, Master?"
"Because I said so!"
Kagome was having fun with this. She started chanting, "Master, Master, Masteerrr!"
"Why you..." Inuyasha started.
But Kagome kept going. "Master, Master, Masteeerrrr!" She was having a lot of fun teasing him. 'He's even hotter when he gets mad!' She thought to her self, not realizing it.
Inuyasha had just about had enough of it though. He ran over to her. When Kagome saw him coming, she screamed and jumped off the bed. Inuyasha started chasing her around the room.
The whole time Kagome was chanting, "Master, Master, Masteeerr!", and
was laughing.
Inuyasha smirked, 'This has gone on long enough, now its time to catch her!' He thought. He stopped running his normal human speed and used his demonic speed to catch up to her.
"Master, Master, Mas--Eeeep!" Kagome exclaimed when she felt two hands grab her by her waist.
With Inuyasha holding on to Kagome's waist, he started turning her around to face him, but the force from his speed to grab her sent them both rolling to the floor. When they stopped rolling, Inuyasha was on top of Kagome (without his shirt on... ; ).
Inuyasha put her arms over her head and pinned her legs down with his.
"Ha! I win!" He said triumphantly down at her.
Kagome stuck her tongue out and said, "You cheated."
"I did not."
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"How did I then?"
"You used your super speed thingy"
"That's not cheating"
"Is too."
"How is it cheating?"
"Ummm..." Kagome started. She couldn't figure out how to respond.
"See? You can't even find a reason!" Inuyasha said victoriously. "That means I win!"
Inuyasha looked down at Kagome. She was so beautiful. Her raven hair, her brown eyes, and her sweet smell, he loved it all. He felt like he was drawn to her.
Kagome laid there, with Inuyasha pinning her down. She was waiting for him to start gloating over his victory on their little "game". But when she looked up at him, he was staring at her. 'What the--? What is he doing? He's just sitting there looking at me...!' She thought to herself. 'What the?! Why is he getting so close to my face?! Then she looked at his golden eyes. 'Wow...' she thought 'his eyes...' Kagome loved his eyes.
There was a knocking on the door, but neither noticed. They were both too focused on each other, with there faces an inch apart and closing. Then the raccoon servant entered.
"Master, I have brought Your Lady's--!" When the servant saw Inuyasha and
Kagome, she gasped. "I-I-Uhhh...I'll come back later!" She quickly left the room as fast as she could, tightly shutting the door behind her.
"Uhh...." Both Kagome and Inuyasha said, both of them blushing beat red. Inuyasha, realizing the position he was in on top of Kagome, and how close
his face was to hers, quickly got off of her. Kagome then sat up.
They were both still blushing, and both found the ground very
interesting.
"Ummm..."Inuyasha started, still looking at the ground. "I'll go make sure that your new clothes are sent to you here with a servant to help you."
With that, Inuyasha stood up and went to the door that the servant had come and went through. Right before going out the door, he turned around and said, "Oh yeah, you'll probably want to take a bath before dinner. The bathing room is the door on the right side of the room." He pointed at the door on the right side of the room and left.
'Okay...' thought Kagome, 'I guess I'll start my bath and wait for the servant to get here.'
Kagome got up off the floor, where she was left sitting, and went into the bathing room. 'I wonder what time it is,' she thought to herself.
"Wow!" Kagome exclaimed out loud when she stepped into the bathing room. 'I've never seen such a big bathroom in my life! It's almost as big as the bedroom!' She stood marveling. 'And the bathtub! It's like a swimming pool! I wonder how deep it goes...' Kagome laughed at herself for being so childish.
Kagome took off Inuyasha's shirt that she was wearing and her bra and
underwear, and set them on the bench next to the door. She got into the
bathing pool and sunk down into the water.
'Wow...this feels like heaven! I wish I could stay in here forever!' She
thought. 'But I'd have to get out sometime. Inuyasha would make me...somehow...' Kagome laughed to herself. She could imagine him standing outside the door yelling at her to get out of the bath, but refusing to come in and get her.
'Hmmm,' she thought. 'I wonder what's going on with him. He was being such a jerk to me, then all of sudden it was like he was going to kiss me! I am so confused! Oh well, I guess I was just imagining things. He probably wasn't going to kiss me... I shouldn't flatter myself.'
A light knocking on the door brought Kagome out of her in." she said, not sure what to say.
A servant came through the door. It wasn't the raccoon servant, but an animal that was the same height and wore the same servant's outfit. Its head looked like a squirrel's, but it had long, skinny, pointed ears with white tips, and its tail was almost as long as it was tall. The tail had two white rings at the end. It had little paw-like feet and hands. She was holding a small bag in one hand, and what looked like to be kimono, draped over her other arm.
'This one's cute too!' She thought and smiled.
"Lady Kagome, I have brought bathing supplies and a pair of your new clothes." The servant said while bowing deeply.
"Thank you" Kagome said, bowing back, without getting out of the water.
"Lady Kagome, you do not have to bow to one like me." The servant said.
"Why not?" Kagome asked, puzzled.
"Well, Lady Kagome," the servant started, "it is the custom of all castles that the servants bow to the Masters and Ladys of the castles to show their respect and loyalty."
"But why am I not supposed to bow back?"
"Because servants bow out of respect. A Lady such as yourself shouldn't bother respecting mere servants."
"Well, I just want to be friends, not servant and lady, or whatever. So you don't have to bow to me or call me lady." Kagome said happily smiling. "But maybe you might not want to do that in front of Inuyasha. He might get mad."
"Yes!" the servant replied. Both Kagome and the servant started laughing.
"So, you know my name. What is your name, and what is the girl raccoon servant's?" she asked.
"My name is Satu. And the raccoon servant you met is named Takara. There are many servants here in this castle, so it'll be a long time till you know them all." Said Satu.
"Okay. But I don't know how long I'm going to staying." Said Kagome.
'I'm sure it'll be a long time,' Thought Satu.
"Well then, should we finish your bath?" Satu asked.
"What?"
"I'm here to help you wash your hair and get you into your new clothes the proper way."
"Are you sure? Because you don't have to."
"Oh yes. I would be honored to."
"Oh, okay." Kagome said.
Kagome, still in the bathing pool, dunked under the water and moved over to the wall closest to the door. She put her back against the wall. Satu kneeled onto one of the steps, and took a small bottle out of the little bag that she had with her. From the bottle she poured some kind of liquid like substance into her small paw-like hand. She put the bottle down and started rubbing the substance into Kagome's hair.
'It smells sweet, like sakura blossoms, and some other things I don't know.' Thought Kagome.
"What is that?" Kagome asked. "It smells really good."
"Doesn't it? It's the Master's own secret family recipe for making hair cleansers. It's the best kind around. All I know about its ingredients is that it has crushed sakura blossoms and honey mixed into it." Said Satu.
Kagome and Satu talked for a long time. Kagome explained how she got here and told Satu about her time, and Satu told Kagome the ways of her and Inuyasha's time.
Then Kagome said, "Inuyasha is such a jerk."
"Well, he can be really nice if you get to know him, Kagome." Satu said.
Kagome replied, "Key words, Can Be."
At that, they both started laughing. When they were both done laughing, Kagome said, "I just don't get him."
'I think you'll get it soon enough.' Satu thought with a smile on her face, which Kagome didn't notice.
When they were done, Kagome dunked her head under the water and rinsed out the shampoo in her hair, which they both had forgotten about. Then Kagome got out and Satu handed her a towel. She dried off and Satu started to help her into her kimono.
