RAY POV

'Ok, I have to be careful now...don't want anything to pop out and bite me, now do I? Why am I acting overly cautious? Because Inu-yasha is up to something and I have to be on the look out. There was something very suspicious about the way he said, "This means war."

He didn't want to kill me that's for sure, it wasn't the murderous talk...more like mischievous and conspiring.'

I unlocked the bathroom door and snapped my head in every possible direction, from inside mind you. Something gave me the impression that I was being watched...where's a big, strong Kai when you need one.

I tipp toed out of the bathroom pausing at the door way, Inu-yasha was somewhere around, that I was sure of.

"WHAAAAAAA!!!!!!" I yelped and jumped three feet in the air when ice cold sticky fluid came colliding down on my head.

I stopped screaming and wiped yellow goo of my eyes and mouth. I sniffed at it and wrinkled up my nose in disgust...yuck, raw eggs.

This was defiantly the work of the one and only Inu-yasha. I growled in frustration as I shivered at the cold egg yolk clinging onto my body. Inu-yasha was going to pay...going to pay dearly.

I peeled my egg covered feet of the ground, grumbling at the squishy feeling. I walked two steps only to have something else dumped on my head. I mumbled a string of curses and brought my right hand up to my face, I was now covered in hot fudge.

"I will kill you if it's the last thing I do you mangy mutt!" I hang out with Kouga way to much.

Taking a couple steps further something else was yet again dumped on my head. Now I was really losing my temper. I hastily wiped the...whatever it was of my eyes and almost screamed in horror as I realized that I was now covered in an array of distorted yellow and white feathers...I looked like something straight out of the poultry farm.

I ran out of the house hoping no one would see me like this...especially Kai, he would hold it against me for the rest of my life, I can just see him rolling on the floor laughing his gorgeous head off.

Luckily for me it was night time, less chance of being noticed.........wait what was that I was saying, cause all of the Bladebreakers were a mere couple feet from me eating...eeepp! Chicken!

O wanted to turn around but Inu-yasha from somewhere behind me, gave me and ever so gentle push in the direction I really didn't want to go in.

"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" I heard Tyson scream in a very girlish voice along with Max.

In an instant Tyson was at my feet, on his knees with his hands clamped firmly together, "Oh Mr. Chicken master! I knew I shouldn't have eaten one of your fellow chicken friends...but they were so tasty...pleeaseee don't eat me!!!" Tyson was now whimpering and balling like crazy.

"Tyson...Tyson, relax, it's me Ray." I smiled down at Tyson but he couldn't see it since my mouth was covered with egg, fudge and feathers.

"AAAAHHHHH!!!" Tyson backed away from me and stared wailing again, "Oh no Maxie! We're too late! The big, scary Chicken man has already eaten Ray and now he's after me! Die Chicken man die!!!!"

Tyson grabbed a wooden stick and bashed me one the head with it, knocking me out cold.

Note to self, kill Tyson when regained consciousness.

-------------------------------------

I woke up to Kai holding a big bag of ice on my head, nursing my terribly sore head. I shifted a bit in his lap and looked up at Kai, "What happened?"

Kai sighed and pulled the bag of ice away from my head, immediately my head started to pound like crazy, as if someone was trying to drill a hole into it. I whimpered and Kai placed the ice back on my head kissing my forehead.

"Tyson was being stupid, don't worry I killed him for you." Kai shifted the ice pack and held me close.

It started to come back to me, I remembered Tyson going berserk...because...something about a chicken...I'm confused now.

"Kai, I keep thinking chicken...what's going on?" I was utterly confused, I guess the bonk on my head must have wiped out my memory or something.

Kai hugged me tighter and gave me a light kiss on my temple, "Inu-yasha decided it would be fun to make you look like a chicken, so a little hot fudge, eggs and feathers did the trick."

Although Kai was smirking I could clearly tell he was fuming at Inu-yasha's immature behavior.

Being with Kai since I was 15 made me recognize was really under his skin, a whole lot of confusion, pain, hurt and betrayal. Kai's opened up to me totally and I'm so glad he can finally relax and just be himself except around the others, feel what he wants to feel and do what he wants to do without some crazy old coot controlling his every move.

Kai looked over my body checking for any damage that may have been caused. He stopped and frowned. Extending his pale hand he lightly brushed over a long thin scratch on my arm.

I winced and he immediately withdrew his hand, concern clouding his fiery crimson orbs, "Ray..." He whispered, shifting me around so he could take a better look at my cut. It wasn't too deep but it did hurt, luckily I'm in good hands. Kai's a walking, talking first aid kit.

He left so he could get some cream and a roll of bandages to dress my open wound, returning shortly he placed the bandages on the mattress and the cream on the floor. Twisting the lid open he swiped some white cream on his finger and ever so gently dabbed it onto my wound.

When the cream was done Kai took the bandages and started to wrap up my arm, it stung a bit, but I lived.

"How'd it happen Kitten?" Kai asked bringing sitting side ways on his lap.

"I was...kinda spying on Kagome and Kouga and then I climbed up a tree and fell of it..." I blushed in embarrassment, Kai had warned me countless times to be careful. But you never really listen until it actually happens.

Kai sighed deeply and brushed my hair out of my face, "Didn't I ever tell you curiosity killed the cat...kitten...you have to be more careful."

"I know, I know...I'm sorry..." My voice was choky and my eyes welled up with tears, I hated it when Kai was upset with me.

"Kitten...it's ok, don't be sorry...baby don't cry...Ray..." Kai was hugging me tightly, rocking me back and forth.

I fell asleep pretty quickly with Kai stroking my back and fanning me, to cool me down.

----------------------------

I woke up and Kai was gone but Tyson, Max and Kenny were staring down on me.

Tyson was the first to speak up, "Hey, buddy...I'm really sorry..."

"Yeah...we should have believed you when you said you weren't the evil chicken man..." Max bowed his head in shame.

"It's alright guy's...I'll find some way to get you back." I smiled and giggled when Tyson turned deathly pale.

"Ahem..." We all turned around when we heard someone clear their throat, "If you will kindly move from Ray, he needs to have some lunch." It was none other than Kai, my Kai.

Tyson, Max and Kenny shuffled out of the room almost tripping over their feet in the process, they knew when Kai said get out, you get out.

Kai walked over to my side and smiled warmly placing down a bowl of steaming, creamy mushroom soup, "Made with love." He smirked and grabbed a spoon full and lightly blew on it, then he placed it to my lips.

I gladly opened up and swallowed down the delicious broth, hungrily awaiting some more. Then a thought hit me, "Kai, you made this?"

Kai blew on another spoonful and feed it to me saying, "Who better?"

I giggled and accepted another spoon. Who knew Kai could cook so well?

"How'd you learn to cook?" I asked, I was definitely curious, I used to always cook for Kai so this came as a surprise to me.

"You tend to learn things when the person most dear to you needs your help." Short and sweet, just like Kai.

-------------------------

I was sitting near the edge of the lake mediating, calming my body when Inu-yasha appeared beside me. I cracked one eye half way open to look at him, silently questioning the reason for his sudden appearance.

Inu-yasha got the picture because he settled down beside me and closed his eyes, "Can't I come say hello without being questioned?" His voice was harsh, yet worried.

A small smile graced my lips, oh Inu-yasha, swallow your pride for once in your life, it won't hurt to do so.

After a few minutes of silence Inu-yasha started fidgeting, obliviously feeling uncomfortable, "Ok, I came to say......sorry...about...the chicken thing...so yeah..."

Inu-yasha saying sorry, after all I did when I was drunk, that was as unlikely as Kai not getting pissed of at Tyson at least once a day.

I raised my brow and looked at him in disbelief, "Somehow, this can't be right..."

"What!" Inu-yasha barked, "I came all the way here only to receive an ungrateful 'this can't be right' I don't think so!"

I thought this over for a second, Inu-yasha wouldn't be defending himself so much if he was truly sorry...there was more to this, "Come on Inu-yasha, I know you, you struggle even to apologize to Kagome!"

"What! I! What?!" Inu-yasha was cornered, the truth would come out.

"Come on Inu-yasha, spit it out. I won't mind...really." I smiled as genuinely as I could.

Inu-yasha fidgeted for a moment and then sighed, "Ok...maybe, Kagome told me to say sorry..."

I smiled in triumph. I was right, now it's my turn. I got up and stood directly behind Inu-yasha and stuck out my foot and kicked him right into the cold springs, "That's what you get for plotting against a drunk person who clearly didn't know any better!"

Inu-yasha landed with a thud in the water and I heard him yelp as the cold water came in contact with his skin.

Kai was standing under a tree not top far from the lake, I grinned and made my way over to him. Kai uncrossed his arms and wrapped them around my shoulders. I smiled and buried my head in the crook of his neck.

Inu-yasha emerged from the water and staggered over to me. I grinned in amusement...

Inu-yasha...let the games begin.
