~T: *collapses onto floor from exhaustion* Alright minna-san. This chapter, I know isn't the longest thing in the world. Nor is it the best. But I'm trying! Miko: Mr. Thetsa's dad doesn't like her posting a whole lot. WB: Also, she's been fretting about the WASL. T: Don't say that awful word! WB: They need to know! T: No they don't! Sephi: *sighs* The WASL is a statewide test that all 4th, 7th, and 10th graders have to take. T: And this year they go on our transcripts! Stevie: Calm down child. T: Don't call me that! Stevie: You'll do fine, now please move on with the story. T: Blah, blah, Whiteblaze? Take it away! Disclaimer via WB: Who ever told you that Thesta owned anything of even moderate value was greatly mistaken.~

Miko From Another World

Ch.6 Sibling Rivalry Part 1

~*Three Hours Later*~

"Man," said InuYasha. "And I thought that Fluffy and I were bad."
"What did you call me half-breed?" questioned Sesshomaru.
"Don't you two start,' snapped Sango.
"Truly," seconded Miroku. "One royal sibling fight is bad enough."
Shippo, who until now had been watching the fighting siblings, jumped up and yelled, "Hey, look a distraction!"
The feuding siblings stopped mid-sentence and everyone stared at him. Than Kagome couldn't hold it in anymore. She just collapsed, clutching her sides and laughing for all she was worth. Everyone looked from Shippo to Kagome than sweat dropped.
"Shippo," questioned Sango. "What was that?"
He looked at the assembled group and said proudly, "Kagome told me about it. She said the best way to stop an argument was to yell something completely random." He glanced over at Kagome than added, "She pulled that trick on me once and I guess she thinks it's really amusing."
After he said this, Kagome stood up and wiped the laughter tears from her eyes. "All right minna-san," she said than she sighed before continuing. "Let's set up camp and then we'll decide what to do." With that, she pulled her 'house' capsule out of her bag, activated it than tossed it.
In a 'poof' of smoke, a house appeared. "Wow," cried Rin. "Rin has never seen anybody do that before!"
"My momma is full of surprises," said Shippo proudly. "Come on! There's lots of fun stuff inside!" With that, he grabbed the young girls hand and dragged her into the house.
"Ah Rin!" squawked Jaken. "You get back here!" Than he hobbled after the children into the house.
"Shall we?" asked Kagome with a cheerful smile. She turned and followed the children into the house as well.
She was followed closely by Vegeta, who was saying, "Don't think this is over." So, the very strange group of demons, humans, and saiyans settled down to dinner and started talking.
Pretty soon they had talked themselves into exhaustion (not Sesshomaru of course.) Slowly, one by one they drifted off into the welcoming arms of sleep.

~*Meanwhile, in a castle to the South*~

"Master, master!" cried a lizard like creature. "Master," the lizard continued to call as it ran down the halls of the palace.
Finally, the little lizard creature came to a giant, arched door. The door itself was made of oak. The carvings on the double doors were that of a rising sun and the arch had the many faces of the moon carved into it. The handle was intricately woven silver and gold.
When the lizard reached the door, he stopped and slowly opened it. In side there was a huge library. All the walls except one were covered in books and scrolls. One wall had a fireplace init, which was burning cheerfully at the moment. The roof was actually a window. Allowing the suns raise to shine through during the day and the moon and stars to shine at night.
Standing next to the fireplace was a man in a black rove. At the moment, he had his hood up, concealing his face. The lizard creature approached him and said, "Master, they have returned!"
"So it has begun," the cloaked man said. "Ike." (Ike means pond by the way.)
"Yes master Yujinn?" responded the lizard no known as Ike.
"Prepare the rooms for my niece and nephew," said Yujinn.
"Right away master," said Ike as he bowed his way out of the room.
"I'm sure that you have noticed our niece and nephews energy signal, dear brother," said Yujinn as he looked up at the stars through the skylight. "Now the question is, what are you going to do about it?"
Yujinn sat and stared at the fire for a few more seconds than said, "Few! This cloak may make me look mysterious but it's not practical for standing in front of the fireplace!" With that said, he ripped of the cloak revealing his face.

~*12:00a.m. In the Kitchen with Kagome and Sango*~

"So," said Sango as the girls sat at the kitchen table drinking chai. (T: I absolutely ADORE Chai Tea! Especially Iced Vanilla Chai with wipcream and toffee nuggets! ^.^ Everybody: Thesta just get on with the story!) "Vegeta's your long, lost brother?"
"Yep," replied Kagome. "That's him alright. In all his arrogant, overprotective, prince of the saiyans, glory." She looked up and saw Sango's amused look. "What?"
"Well," said Sango with a smirk. "You always told me that you wished you knew your real family. Also, I've lost count of the amount of times you've complained about being the oldest."
"Ya, ya," grumbled Kagome. "But he didn't have to follow me to the past...and into another dimension no less!"
At this Sango burst into a fit of giggles. "What's so funny?" demanded Kagome.
Once Sango calmed down enough to speak she said, "I guess old habits die hard, ne?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well, your still acting like the eldest. You're talking about Vegeta as if he was Souta. Don't you find that the slightest bit amusing?"
Kagome thought about it a bit than started to giggle. "You're right," she said. "It is kind of funny." Than the two girls just completely broke down into wave after wave of laughter.
"Come on," gasped Kagome. "We better get some sleep. We've got a big day tomorrow."
So the girls went to there shared room and drifted off into dreamland.

~*That Morning*~

"Minna-san breakfast!" called Kagome to her slumbering companions. Sesshomaru was already up and reading one of Kagome's Science books. "Here you go Sesshomaru-sama," said Kagome as she placed a plate of food in front of him.
"I don't eat ningen food," he said before returning to his book.
"Oh no you don't," snapped Kagome. "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and you will eat. Now put that book down!"
"Women, who do you think you are talking to?" questioned Sesshomaru coldly.
"I'm the one who's taking that book," she said while reaching out and grabbing it. "I'm also the one who'll force feed you if you wont eat willingly."
"Now that I'd like to see," said InuYasha as he and the rest of the group stepped into the kitchen. He sniffed the air and said, "What, no Ramen?"
"It's not healthy to eat only Ramen at every meal InuYasha," said Kagome as she flipped an egg. "Just take your seats and I'll bring the food to you."
"We'll help," said Sango followed by Rin and Shippo.
"Thanks. Here, take these to the boys," replied Kagome while pointing at the already pre-made plates of food. "As soon as I'm done with mine I'll join you."
"All right Kago-girl," said Sango while grabbing two plates of food. "Hurry up ok?" With that, Sango, Rin, and Shippo went off to the table. Each was bearing two plates of food.
"Sesshomaru," called Kagome. "You better be eating your breakfast! If I come in there and your just sitting...*bang* Sorry InuYasha. *sigh* Just, don't make me force you to eat it!"
She finished making her breakfast and joined her friends at the table. "Sesshomaru, eat, now."
He just glared at her. So, she stood up and grabbed his plate than said, "Down boy."
Sesshomaru sat down hard and Kagome proceeded to shovel food into his mouth.
Vegeta leaned over to Miroku and whispered, "Has she always been this forceful?"
"Oh yes," replied Miroku. "Both the lovely Sango and Kagome are quite forceful. I do believe that they rub off on each other."
