Families CAN Be Replaceable Side Stories
Dragon Man 180- But who in their right mind gives ramen out for halloween? And why would I limit Shippo's candy intake? It's so much fun to see him annoy Inuyasha!
Cirrus- Yes, but he's a hanyou. It'll grow back quickly.
LiL:.CaT:.AnImE- Yes. The poppy thing is true. Here's the Halloween chapter! The idea might work. But it would be short. But that's okay!
ZeldaAlly- I can't see Inuyasha throwing up. Oh well. But I can see him get a bad stomach ache!
Lenipez sideshow- Maybe the fortune cookie meant that you should find a hand reader and get your fortune told that way. o.o But Inuyasha just as Inuyasha? Where's the fun in that?
animecraze11- How do I do it? I'm not sure... And yes, I think that Sango is the most serious when it comes to problems so I was giving credit where credit was due.
DarkPirate-510- Read on! You don't have to wait any longer!
MD- I'm glad you find my stories funny. I love making people laugh.
lil'killer- Uh. Inuyasha said this, "ARE YOU A FREAKING IDIOT?!?! OF COURSE YOU CAN'T BORROW TETSUSAIGA! IT'S MINE!" And this is what Miroku said, "I can't give you my staff because I have to use it in battles. But I could tell you where I got it-" Unfortuneatly he chose that time to grope Sango and was knocked out cold. -.-;
I slid the door open to Kaede's hut, grinning broadly. Everyone was there. Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, Shippo, Sango, even Mikoto. "I know what I'm going to be for Halloween!" I exclaimed closing the door and sitting down next to Kagome and Miroku.
"What's Halloween?" Shippo asked. "It's one day each year where all the children dress up in my time and go from house to house, collecting candy." Kagome explained. "Cool!" the kitsune said, "Can I come?" "You could if you could get through the well." I said appoligentically.
"And what are you going to dress up as?" Mikoto asked me. "It's a secret." I replied. "Why won't you tell me?" he asked sounding hurt. "She hasn't even told me yet." Kagome put in, "Our mother knows though. She's helping her with the costume. But that's the only person."
"Why won't you tell us Lady Kyo?" Miroku asked. My smile was replaced with one of surprise and disgust as his hand began rubbing my butt. I slapped him hard across the face. "You know." Mikoto said with icy politeness, "I should really hurt you for that." "But you won't, will you?" Miroku asked grinning guiltily.
I stood up and moved over to a seat next to Mikoto. He wrapped one of his arms around me protectively. "Will you give me some of your candy?" Shippo asked. "Of course." I said. I was going to say more, but I stopped as an idea came into my head. "Inuyasha." I began, "What would you say if I asked you to come collect candy for Shippo?" "I'd say you'd owe me at least half the stuff I get." the hanyou replied.
"Is that alright with you, Shippo?" Kagome asked. "Yeah!" Shippo replied. "So what are you going to dress up as, Inuyasha?" Sango asked. "I'm going to dress up as a full demon." he replied. "You don't even need to bother." Kagome said, "You can just come the way you are." "Are you nuts?" Inuyasha demanded, "People will look at me and say 'Why the hell are you dressed like a hanyou? What's wrong with you?" "But no one even knows what a demon looks like in my time." I said, "And most people haven't even heard of a hanyou."
"Really?" Inuyasha asked. "Really." I assured him. "Then I'll go as I am." he said. "But you can't do that!" I insisted. "But you just said I could Cat!" Inuyasha yelled. "Well you could." I admitted, "But it wouldn't be any fun! You've got to dress up as something or someone!" "Well I'm not dressing up." the hanyou said, "I will go just as myself."
That was when I stood up. "Well I'm going home." I said frowning, "But you just got here!" Sango said, "Stay for a little bit." "I'd love to, but I've got homework to finish." I lied, "As a matter of fact so does Kagome. Maybe I should have brought it with me." "Maybe you should have." Kagome agreed, "But you didn't. So I don't have to do it... Right now."
Mom was in her room sewing a pair of pants I had ripped in the feudal era. "That was a quick visit." she commented, "I was expecting you to at least stay for an hour." "I came up with an idea I had to ask you about." I replied. "And what is that?" "I need a second costume." "What for?" mom asked putting down her sewing. "I just need it." I said again. I wasn't sure if Mom would let me do this.
"Alright." Mom said, "What kind of costume do you want?" "A ballerina costume." I said grinning, "And make it a woman's large. It's not for me." "This wouldn't happen to be for Inuyasha, would it?" Mom asked. Darn she had caught me! "Yeah." I replied. "What kind of revenge are you getting?" she questioned.
"I'm not really getting revenge for anything." I explained, "I just think it would be funny. And Inuyasha doesn't know what a ballerina is so there's no harm done." "I suppose you're right." mom said sighing, "I'll pick the costume up tomorrow. I assume you want a costume with a tutu?" My grin was a good enough response for her.
A week later it was finally Halloween and I sat outside the well house, waiting for Inuyasha to arrive. I would kill him if he didn't come. Finally I head a thump as Inuyasha jumped out of the well. I opened the door and he walked out. "Alright." he said, "Were's Kagome? Let's go get some candy."
"Not yet." I said pushing him towards the house, "I got you a costume." "Cat!" he exclaimed, "I told you that I didn't want a costume!" "Too bad." I replied, "I got you one and you're going to wear it." "Feh." he replied, "Whatever. Give it to me." I handed him the bag I had been holding which contained his costume. He pulled out the pink tights that had been on the top of everything else.
"What the hell..." Inuyasha trailed off. "They're called tights." I explained, "You put them on like pants. Just be careful with them. They're delicate and you don't want to rip them." He nodded and pulled out the next piece. The leotard. "That's a leotard." I said, "Pull it on over the tights. You'll figure it out." After that, the ballet slippers. "Shoes." I said simply. Finally the tutu. "I'll explain that later." I said grinning, "Get changed. You can use my room. I'll help you with anything you find troublesome." Nodding, Inuyasha walked up the stairs to my room. I was surprised. I had thought he would be much more resistant.
It took Inuyasha five times to get his costume on right, but finally he got it with only one minor pull in the tights. "Now what?" Inuyasha asked, "And where the hell is Kagome?" "Kagome's with her friends today." I explained, putting the tutu on him, "And now I have to put the finishing touches on your costumes."
"And what would those be?" he asked a little uneasily. I held up a little bottle of pink nail polish that matched his outfit. "What's that?" Inuyasha asked. "Put your hands down on my desk." I said unscrewing the top. He did it. I quickly brushed the nail polish onto his claws. It was lucky that the polish was quick drying or else I think it would have been ruined.
"Are you finished?" Inuyasha asked, "Or is there more?" "More." I replied pulling out some hair things. "Sit down on the bed." I instructed. He did. I braided his hair then wound (did I spell this wrong? It looks wrong) it around his head in a corrinet band. It hid his ears. "Perfect!" I exclaimed giggling, "Now I'm done."
"Good." Inuyasha said standing up, "Now what?" "Well Kagome's not back yet." I said, "So you could play with Buyo I guess while I get into my costume." "Okay." he said leaving the room.
"Okay Mom!" I called, "I'm ready!" Mom walked into my room. "I think you over did it with Inuyasha's costume." she said laughing. "But it looks so funny!" I insisted, getting into what I was wearing underneith my costume. Mom pulled out the first roll of bandages and started rolling them around my foot. "You're going to be a very cute mummy." she told me.
Kagome burst out laughing when she saw Inuyasha. "What?!" he demanded. "Nothing." she replied walked up the stairs. "Do you like his costume?" I asked hurrying after her. "It's hilarious!" she exclaimed, "You're lucky he doesn't know what you dressed him up as." "Yeah." I agreed nodding.
"Is Inuyasha here?" Sota asked running down the stairs. "He's been here for almost two hours." I replied, "He's in the kitchen. Do Buyo a favor and get him away from Inuyasha." "Okay!" Sota said. He hurried into the kitchen.
We set off about a half an hour later with four bags for candy among us and orders from Mom to watch out for Sota. That wouldn't be a problem with Inuyasha along. Currently the hanyou in question was giving Kagome, dressed in her miko garb, death glares.
"Stop staring at me!" she exclaimed. Inuyasha took a step back. "Just because I look like Kikyo is no reason for you to give me the cold shoulder." "Can we go now?" Sota whined. We started off towards the closest house, or apartment building really.
"So how do we get candy?" Inuyasha said. "Just ask." Sota replied. He started explaining about different types of candy, but none of us were really listening. "You just say 'Give me the damn candy' and they'll give it to you?" the hanyou asked. "No, no!" Kagome said, "You have to be more polite and there's a special saying you have to say." "And what is that?" he asked. "Trick or Treat." I replied happily.
"Trick or Treat?" Inuyasha repeated, "What the hell?" "Don't ask me." Kagome said, "It's just a tradition. The trick part probably had some meaning when Halloween first came around but now only the treat part does." "This time is so strange." he muttered. "I don't know." I admitted, "The Fuedal Era is pretty strange too." "Yeah." Kagome agreed.
We arrived at our first house a few seconds later. "Ready?" she asked Inuyasha. "Feh." he replied, "I guess." Souta rang the doorbell and the door opened. "Trick or Treat!" we chorused, holding out our candy bags. The old lady at the door smiled. "What great costumes you kids have!" she said dropping a few pieces of candy into each of our bags, "Have a good time!" She closed the door.
"That's it?" Inuyasha asked looking in his bag, "That's all they're going to give us?" "At this house." Souta said, "But at the next house they'll give us more and by the end of the night our bags will be completely full!" "I get it." he said grinning, "Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
It felt like an hour had gone by, but I knew it had been longer. We were about to ring the doorbell of a house when I stiffened and took a step back. "What's the matter, Kyo?" Kagome asked. "I refuse to take candy from this house." I declared, stepping completely off the front steep. "Why?" Souta asked.
"It smells familiar." Inuyasha admitted, "But- Wait! This is your parent's house, isn't it?" I nodded. "Cool!" Souta said, "I want to meet Kyo's mom and dad!" "No you don't." Kagome said, "They're very cruel hearted people. You want nothing to do with them." "Feh." Inuyasha said, "I think all humans are like that." "When was the last time Miroku, Sango, Mom, Souta, and I shunned you?" Kagome demanded, "Not all humans are bad." Inuyasha scowled.
"Can we at least get candy?" Souta asked. Kagome and Inuyasha's eyes turned to me. "Go ahead." I said, "I'll just stay back here." Souta rang the door bell and a few minutes later my dad opened the door. "Trick or Treat!" The three said happily. "What great costumes!" Dad said putting some candy into their bags.
He spotted me. "Doesn't your friend back there want candy?" he asked Inuyasha. "Not from here, thank you." I said a little coldly. Dad frowned, trying to registar my voice. I know he thought it sounded familiar. "Kyo is that you?" he asked. I nodded. "You know." Dad said, "Your mother was put in jail for a year thanks to you." I shrugged. "She deserved it." I said simply. With that I just walked away. The others followed.
A while later we arrived at a big mansion on the edge of Tokyo. "Wow." Souta commented, "This is one big house." "It is." I agreed. We walked up the the door and for once Inuyasha rang. A little old lady opened and smiled at us while putting a lot of candy in our bags.
"What amazing costumes you youngun's have!" she said, "I very life like looking cowboy if I might say so myself. A priestess. It's always nice to see traditional costumes. A mummy! How wonderfully scary dear! Last but not least, a ballerina! And what a beauty you are too!" Inuyasha's eye twitched a bit.
Finally the lady shut the door. "She thought I was a GIRL!!!!" Inuyasha exclaimed a few minutes later as we passed a graveyard, "A ballerina isn't a girl, is it?" "Not always." Kagome said in my defense, "But the way Kyo dressed you up, yes." Inuyasha glared at me. "You dressed me up as a GIRL!!!!" he demanded. I nodded innocently.
"Damn you bitch!" he yelled lunging at me. I nimbly dodged him, jumping into the graveyard. I continued running. Inuyasha followed me screaming curses at me. Souta and Kagome just stared at the scene in front of him. It must have been a very strange scene. A ballerina chasing a mummy in a graveyard. You'd think it would be the other way around, wouldn't you?
It took Inuyasha about twenty seconds to catch up with me and he never would have if he hadn't stepped on a bit of my costume that had been dragging on the ground. This caused me to trip. Unfortuneatly for both of us there was a steep hill there. We went tumbling down it, landing at the bottom.
"What was that for??!!" I demanded. We had landed in a heap, with him next to me. "You dressed me up as a girl!" Inuyasha yelled, "You deserved it!" I stood up. "I gave you a chance to get your own costume." I reminded him. Inuyasha looked up at me, but then quickly looked away again." "What?" I snapped.
"You figure it out yourself." he said still looking away. I looked up the hill to see a trail of bandage where we had rolled down. I then looked down at myself, fearing the worst. And the worst was what I saw. I was standing in the middle of a graveyard in only my tank top and underwear. I blushed cherry red.
"So, are we going back to Kagome and Souta?" Inuyasha asked. It was then that I realised that it was his fault I was in this position. "I'm going to get your for this!" I hissed. Inuyasha looked at me. I guess he saw the pure rage in my eyes because he swallowed and darted up the hill. I ran after him in hot pursuit. This must have been an even stranger scene than the first one and the first one had really been strange.
Inuyasha stopped when he saw Kagome's expression. "What happened?" she asked, "I'm not even sure I want to know." "The idiot tripped and unrolled my entire costume!" I screamed. Souta began to laugh. Soon he was laughing so hard he was on the ground. Kagome followed his suit. Inuyasha and I glared at them.
"Let's go home before someone sees you Kyo." Kagome finally said getting up. She began to walk towards home. We followed. That was the weirdest Halloween ever.
Clear Waters: So was that good?
Miroku: I wish I was in Inuyasha's place at the end.
Sango: Pervert! I really liked this one. It was funny!
Shippo: Yeah! And I get candy!
Inuyasha: So do I.
Kagome: Yes. You get half of Shippo's bag.
Inuyasha: I've never been much of a fan of candy. Shippo, I'll make a deal with you.
Shippo: What is it?
Inuyasha: I'll give you a piece of my candy for each package of ramen you can get me. Okay?
Shippo: Sure! Kagome, Clear Waters? Can I have some ramen packages?
Kagome: No. Inuyasha wanted the candy and he got the candy. He didn't ask for ramen.
Clear Waters: You can have one from me. R&R everyone!
