Kitsune Delight
by Mistress Nika
Chapter Five
"Miroku's Got a Camera! O_O"
Kagome reached the well in record time. Looking down into the darkness of the well she thought, 'I think physical violence works better with InuYasha than the magic of the rosary! Well, at least it stunned him long enough for me to get away!' She giggled and said out loud, "I wonder what he thinks is wrong with me."
Shippou giggled from her shoulder and said, "I bet he thinks you're really mad at Kikyou and it's driven you insane!"
She laughed at that. "You're probably right, Shippou-chan." she replied. "But I kicked him a little harder than I should have...both of them actually. I think he might have some suspicions already."
The baby squirmed in her arms and she looked down into his gentle blue eyes. "How could anyone think you're evil?" she wondered. She ran her fingers along his tiny ears and he purred happily in response. "Well, I don't think InuYasha got a good smell of your scent, so I guess it's safe to do as Sango suggested. If I claim you now as mine and alter your scent InuYasha no baka won't realize it."
Kagome could see her mother's reaction to the baby now. She had been urging her daughter to take a more active role in finding a mate for years now and was dieing for grandchildren. She would squeal over him and insist on buying him things. Basically go into full grandmother mode. And once Kagome claimed him fully as her child his scent would change to echo her own. Really the purpose of changing the scent was to fool other youkai. If they knew the child was adopted, other youkai would be more likely to attack it. But if the scent told them that it was her biological child they would be a bit more hesitant.
Shippou picked up a strand of Kagome's hair and began nervously twirling it between his little fingers. "Okaasan?" he asked weakly.
Kagome turned her attention to him and asked, "What is it, Shippou-chan?"
He fiddled for a minute more before saying softly, "Well, I was wondering...since you're gonna claim him as your own... Would you do that for me too? I mean, it's not that I mind being your 'adopted' son, but...I wanna be your real son too."
Kagome's eyes softened at his words. "Shippou-chan," she began to explain gently, "you know that if I were to do that InuYasha would recognize the change. And he would be especially suspicious if your scent matched the baby's."
"Yeah." Shippou whined back, "but you're not gonna keep your secret from him for much longer right? So wouldn't it just be funny to watch him be all confused about it for a while?"
Kagome chuckled. She had to admit, he was right. It would certainly be funny to see. "Alright." she relented. "But let's do it on the other side of the well. I don't want InuYasha no baka to catch us."
Shippou nodded and Kagome wasted no time in leaping feet-first into the well. Actually she had caught several familiar scents approaching them on the wind and certainly didn't want to be around when they arrived.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Kouga rushed into the clearing for the second time that morning. He could've sworn he smelled his woman again...but once again, the scent had disappeared before he arrived.
Two seconds later InuYasha ran smack into him, knocking him to the ground and then proceeded to step on him as he made a beeline for the well. "Come back here, wench!" he shouted.
But Kouga wasn't about to let that slide. Mimicking InuYasha earlier he grabed the foot on his midsection and twisted. Unlike InuYasha he succeded in bringing the offender down. InuYasha fell onto his stomach in suprise, the wind quickly expelling from his lungs. Unfortunatly, the way he had twisted landed him right on top of the mangy wolf. And at that exact moment another player entered the clearing for his obligatory "Give me Tetsusaiga" scene.
"Give me Tetsus...." Sesshoumaru began but trailed off as he saw his little brother laying nose to nose on top of the wolf prince and panting for breath. With the shock of finding his little brother in such a scene, he almost made an expression! All he could do was stare, for once completely at a loss for words.
"InuYasha!" an annoying voice drifted through the trees, followed by the clay bitch herself. "Let the wench go. She's just my reinca..car...car...nation." She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw the strange and almost disturbing scene before her.
InuYasha, HER InuYasha, lay atop his arch rival gasping for breath while his elder brother looked on in what could only be described as complete and absolute horror. Which explained the slight widening of his eyes.
"NOOOO!!!" she shrieked. "You said you loved ME!!" Then she turned her back and fled back into the forest from whence she came.
On her way back into the trees she bumped into Miroku, but kept going. 'I wonder what that was all about.' the houshi thought to himself. But he didn't have long to wait as he emerged from the trees and also saw the sight. Unlike Sesshoumaru, he was not frozen in horror. And unlike the two youkai laying on the ground he was not frozen in terror. Instead he grinned, reached into his robes and pulled out a disposable camera. Of course, the other three had no clue what it was and mearly stared at him.
Kouga and InuYasha had yet to budge from their position and their shocked, terrified gazes had gone from Sesshoumaru, to Kikyou and now to Miroku. When Miroku brought the camera up to his eye and pressed the button a *FLASH!* brought them somewhat to their senses.
InuYasha suddenly realized exactly what that was. The wench had brought one with her before and he remembered that it captured images. Suddenly realizing what Miroku was doing, he attempted to leap to his feet. However, Kouga had also at that moment made to get up and they smacked heads with each other.
InuYasha fell back on his butt but managed to catch himself with a hand and hold his head with his other. Kouga, however, wasn't so lucky. He pitched forward and fell face first into InuYasha's lap. Needless to say it was a very suggetive position. *FLASH!* Another picture was taken by the hentai houshi!
InuYasha's eyes went wide and he grabbed Kouga by his ponytail, pulling his head up. "Get offa me you stupid wolf!!" he shouted, only to find that Kouga was out cold. InuYasha lost his grip on the hair and Kouga once again pitched forward. This time his arms flailed out, knocking InuYasha's arm he was using for balance out from under him. InuYasha fell backwards and Kouga fell on top of him. InuYasha, of course, tried to stop it and reached out to grab Kouga's falling body. But instead he misjudged the distance and Kouga fell neatly in between his arms, his head coming to rest on the hanyou's chest. *FLASH!* ANOTHER picture!
"MIROKU!!!" InuYasha howled from under the wolf prince's limp body. "I'M GONNA TEAR YOU INTO BITE-SIZED PIECES!!!"
"Uh-oh!" Miroku cried as he saw InuYasha strugling to free himself again. The houshi tore off into the forest as fast as his terrified legs could take him, after turning around to once more *FLASH!* He couldn't resist shouting back a last taunting cry of, "I bet the village will get a kick out of these!!"
"HOUSHI!!!!" InuYasha screamed in mounting rage as Miroku's continuing laughter reached his ears.
This entire time Sesshoumaru had remained stunned in place and InuYasha turned his glare on him. "Sesshoumaru!" he demanded. "Get this baka wolf offa me!!"
Sesshoumaru blinked twice at him and then actually smirked. "Little brother," he said in his normal monotone, however this time a hint of amusement threatened to show through, "shouldn't you take this somewhere more private?" Then he turned his back and began to walk calmly and gracefully away.
"Sesshoumaru!" InuYasha yelled at his departing brother's back. "What kinda brother are you!? Don't leave me here like this!! SESSHOUMARU!!!" After he didn't get any reply, which he sorta expected, he stopped yelling himself hoarse and settled down. "Damn, you're heavy." he mumbled to the still unconscious wolf. He tried pushing him off again, now that he was calmer and in better control. Afterall, no one was watching him now...or snapping pictures. -_- Unfortunately Kouga unconsciously wrapped both arms around the hanyou's tense body and held on tight.
"Kagome." the wolf mumbled in his sleep and snuggled into InuYasha's chest.
InuYasha rolled his eyes. "Even unconscious she's all he thinks about." InuYasha tried for a good twenty minutes to make him let go before giving up. "Well, he's gotta come around sometime." he reasoned. "And it'll certainly be worth a couple hours of him clinging to me if I can embarass him good when he wakes up." And with that decided, InuYasha lay back down to wait it out.
Unseen from a bush a pair of eyes watched them. Before departing a voice said, "Kukuku."
~~~~~~~~~~~
On the other side, Kagome started to leap out of the well, but heard noises from outside. It sounded like...people. Lot's of them. Suddenly she smacked her head in realization. "The field trip!" she cried. "I forgot all about it! MY school is having a field trip to MY shrine! If they find I'm not here...they'll know I'm not really sick! We've got to hurry!"
In a flash she transformed into her true form and Shippou hopped down from her shoulder. "Shippou-chan?" she said bending down to his level. "Can you hold the baby? You two need to be together so I can claim you both at the same time."
He nodded and she handed him the baby which he took gently into his small arms. Kagome took a step back from them and closed her eyes. A gentle wind blew only in the confined space of the well and she chanted softly under her breath.
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Damn it!" Yusuke cursed upon counting the five hundreth step they'd climbed. "Why the hell do we have to go chasing after some kitsune that isn't even a threat!?"
"Because," Kurama said calmly, "this particular kitsune is a miko. A youkai miko is very uncommon and Koenma believes we could benefit from her friendship. Which is why you and I were sent alone. Kuwabara's...enthusiasm...may frighten her away. And Hiei is not the friendly type."
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." Yusuke groaned as they reached the top. "Finally." he sighed. "No more steps." Then his eyes narrowed angrily. "Oh you have GOT to be kidding me!"
Standing before them was a large crowd of teenage girls all dressed in green-and-white sailor fukus.
"How many of those do you think happen to be fifteen years old and have black hair?" Yusuke asked sarcastically. "Why couldn't the shrimp have given us more details!?"
"Because," Kurama began, "That is all the information we have on her. A female kitsune with miko powers. Fifteen years old, black hair, currently located at Higurashi Shrine."
"Yeah," Yusuke complained. "But he couldn't have even given us a name!?"
"He did not believe we would need it. Normally there would not be many teenage girls at a shrine while school is in attendance."
"Well that's certainly not the case now, is it!?" Yusuke complained. "What are we supposed to do? Go up to every girl and ask her if she's a demon in disguise!?"
(A/N=please bear with me. I seem to remember Kagome's friend's names being Yuka, Eiri and Ayumi. I don't know if that's right and I don't feel like going through my numerous tapes to find out. So here they are. o.O I don't even remember what they look like!)
Yusuke's attention was diverted though as he heard one girl whisper, "Hey, Yuka. Look over there."
"Yeah." another girl whispered back. "Nice. His friend's not too bad either."
Yusuke groaned and glanced over to the whispering girls. There were three of them, and they were looking directly at a certain red-haired bishounen with big, star-filled eyes.
"I can't take you anywhere, can I?" Yusuke asked Kurama with a roll of his eyes.
"Nani?" Kurama asked as he had been gazing over the crowd, searching for their target and not listening to what Yusuke had heard. He didn't have long to wonder though as all three girls seemed to materialize in front of him.
"Hi." one breathed while staring adoringly up at him. "I'm Yuka. Are you single by any chance?"
Kurama took a startled step back as the other two giggled shyly.
'We don't have time for this.' he thought. 'But I don't want to hurt their feelings.' Luckily Kurama had been in this situation before. (A/N=MANY times before!)
He smiled sweetly at them and said, "Actually, I'm afraid I'm already in a serious relationship. We're very much in love and even ladies as beautiful as you are not able to sway my heart."
All three sighed half in disappointment and half in awe.
"That's okay." Yuka said. "It's good to be in love."
"Yeah." her friend agreed. "He's very lucky to have someone like you. Well, ja!" And with that they turned and left.
Kurama could only stare as they walked back to their group. "H.he?" he sputtered. "They think I'm..."
"Bwahahahaha!!!!" Yusuke burst out laughing. "Yeah!" he agreed as he held his sides while continuing to laugh. "Hiei's really lucky!!"
Kurama spun to face Yusuke in shock. "Hiei!?" he asked. "But...we're not....I mean..."
Kurama's fevered denial was cut short though as both boys suddenly froze and their eyes began darting back and forth across the shrine.
"Youki." Yusuke said quietly. "Do you feel it, Kurama?"
Kurama nodded his agreement. "Powerful." he responded. "I believe..." his eyes searched the crown until they came to rest on the sacred well house. "There!" he stated with certainty.
Both boys nodded and cautiously began to make their way over to it. After checking to make sure no one was watching them, they slid the door open and slipped silently inside, making sure to close it again behind them. They didn't see anything in the darkness, but they could definately feel a powerful youki surrounding them. They were surprised when they heard a small child-like whimper come from the well followed by a "Shh!"
A flash of silver suddenly rose up from the well and took it's place opposite them with it's back facing the wall. Yusuke could only stare at the gorgeous creature that now stood before them. And Kurama felt he were going to pass out! It couldn't be!
Kagome narrowed her golden eyes at them and growled deep in her chest. These two didn't feel like humans, at least not completely. Her miko's powers were tugging at her senses and telling her they had youkai blood, even though her nose told her they were human. Now she was glad she had changed her clothes from her school uniform to a more fitting outfit. The one she normally wore in her youkai form. A chinese style, silver fighting kimono. If they were looking for a fight, or to hurt her newly claimed kits, she would need to move freely and her uniform certainly didn't give her that option.
Shippou peeked out from behind her head to get a look at the enemy and quickly ducked back. They smelled human, but if his okaasan said they were dangerous then it had to be true.
Kagome took a step backwards until her back pressed into the rough wooden wall of the well house. She growled once again in warning, louder this time, and clutched the baby to her chest. One of them had taken a step towards her.
Kurama placed a hand on Yusuke's arm and pulled him back. "Don't." he said calmly.
Yusuke gave him a confused look and questioned, "What? Why not? Isn't she who we're looking for?"
Kurama nodded but never took his eyes off her. He nodded toward her and said, "Look. She has kits."
Yusuke took in the baby in her arms and the little hand clutching her shoulder from behind. "So?" he asked, still confused.
Kurama almost felt the need to roll his eyes, but knew that to take his eyes off her would be foolhardy. "Yusuke, what happens when you back an animal into a corner and it feels threatened with nowhere to go?"
Yusuke thought for a minute before saying slowly, "It...fights back?"
Kurama nodded again and said, "And what happens if that animal happens to be a mother protecting her offspring?"
Before Yusuke could respond Kagome spoke up. "Who are you?" she asked, her words dripping poison. "If you were sent by Naraku I promise I'll tear you apart before I let you have my son."
Yusuke just looked even more confused. "Naraku?" he questioned. "Who's that?"
Kurama was shocked again. Not only was she a silver kitsune like him, she also knew of the evil hanyou Naraku! And why would she think they were sent by him? He's been dead for five hundred years! "No." he said to her. "We were not sent by Naraku. We were sent by Koenma to gain your friendship. If you are in fact the youkai miko?"
Kagome nodded slowly, but she still didn't trust them Sent by Koenma? Well, that certainly was new if they WERE from Naraku. But still...she couldn't trust them yet. "Prove it." she said.
Now Yusuke and Kurama were stumped. How were they supposed to prove it? It's not like Koenma had given them employee badges or anything! Yusuke began going through his pockets, pulling out various gadgets the toddler had given him, hoping they would prove their legitimacy.
Kagome watched as he continued to rifle through his clothes, piling strange looking objects on the floor and muttering about demented toddlers.
Kurama finally spoke up and said, "Actually, we have no way to prove it. Unless you agree to come with us. But I doubt that you will."
Kagome narrowed her eyes at him. The other one seemed so clueless he couldn't be a threat, kind of like InuYasha. But that one...he seemed too wise to be just a human teenager. "What are you?" she asked carefully. "You smell human, but you have very well disguised youki."
Kurama allowed a smile to grace his lips. He knew this would come up. "I am a kitsune spirit in the body of a human." he said calmly. "And I assure you, we mean you no harm."
Kagome continued to study him. It was true, if he were a kitsune, she could trust him. Kitsune weren't by nature violent and would never harm their own. But it would be too easy to say he is a kitsune when he is not in order to gain her trust. She needed proof. "Let me see your true form then." she said finally.
____________________________________________________________________________________
(A/N) BWAHAHAHA!!! Cliffhanger!!! How do you think she's gonna react to finding out he's...well...him? ^__^ Okay, for the sake of this fic we're gonna pretend we know relatively how old Kurama is. Let's say he's about seven hundred, which would mean he was alive when Naraku was. And, uh...the only reviews that have mentioned the shounen-ai issue are for it...or don't really care one way or the other. So if no one protests this chapter, next chapter shounen-ai will officially begin! Three reviews against it is all it takes to make me remove the shounen-ai. But I'll have you know that InuYasha/Kouga is my all time favorite pairing for this series! Followed closely by Sess/Inu and Kouga/Kag! ^^ Am I sick and twisted? Yes, yes I am! ^___^
______________________________________________________________________________________
Reviews have made me realize the truth about myself. "I'm a kitsune spirit in the body of an inu-neko hanyou!"
Killiara: Otay! How's this for a friend song? "Bloodshed, Carnage, Death and Destruction! You can run. You can hide. But soon my friends and I shall...KILL YOU!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!!!" (chases random people with a spork) [Bakura: "No, she's not yami right now. She's just had three pieces of chocolate peanut butter fudge, five sweet pickles, four chocolate covered thin mints, a black cherry soda and a Dr. Pepper in the past hour. The other bishys and I are hiding under her bed...it's a tight squeeze. -_- [Nika: *flips over the bed* AH HA!! I found you!! [Bishys: O___O [Nika: The Evil Flying Mashmallows have infiltrated my home and taken over my bishys!!! Don't worry! I'll seperate them from you!!! *begins chasing them with a spork* [All bishys: AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! [Nika: Come back! Don't worry!! It's just a minor labotomy!!! I've been studying!!] *waves banner* Go Silver Foxes!! Way cool!! I'm definately gonna try to use the "Creepy Keeky" bit! I'm thinking of posting one of my fansongs too! It's "Baby Love" by Diana Ross. But I made it for Naraku and called it "Monkey Love" ^__^ My friend and I made it up years ago...now I've just gotta try to remember the words! lol
carol: ....'suitable'? Nani? What do you mean by 'suitable'? ^^ I'm always freaky!! [Naraku: *puts an arm around her waist and grins* Yes...very freaky. [Nika: *screams bloody murder* AHHH!!!! It's Monkey Love MAN!!! *dives into a lake and begins to swim for safety...then remembers she can't swim* O.o *gurgle-gurgle* ....help?
greeneydgrl74: I think we ALL wanna kick Kikyou! I know I sure do! ^^ Thanks! I'm so glad you like my fic!
Kay Kylo: O_O Does no one respond to your reviews..? That's just...cruel! I always do, no matter how many hours...yes, HOURS it takes! It shows that I care about my reviewers! Because without you guys I would never continue my fics! *sends her a Kikyou plushie* Here, it can be used in many different ways, but I suggest bringing it to life and venting all your anger on it! ^^ Have fun!
Kagome lover 2009: O__O You........you..........don't like.....KURAMA!?!?!? *faints dead away* *Miroku and Sango rush to her rescue* [Miroku: Perhaps I should breath air into her..? [Sango: Hentai! *bashes him* She didn't drown! *begins slapping her face trying to rouse her* Come on, Nika-sama! Don't die on me! You said we could get drunk, stalk, corner in a dark alley and spank the ass of various bishounen!! [Miroku: O_o....wasn't that a quiz?]
Black Ruby Kitsune: Thanks! Is this chapter long enough?
Japanese_Dragon: Yep! I think Kikyou's gonna have major mental problems if she emerges from this fic alive! ^^ Well, I think she does already...but not enough! And not the right ones! ^___^
Kage Otome: Well, you see, I can't really decide on how she claims them. First I went with the bite mark...but that's over done. So I went with a magical spell...but didn't explain it all because I was stumped on it. Is this okay? Yes, this is a crossover. It says so in the summary. If you wish me to tell you everything I will say it is: InuYasha/Yuu Yuu Hakusho crossover. And the pairings are: Youko/Kagome, Miroku/Sango, Kouga/InuYasha/Kikyou, Yusuke/Keiko, Hiei/...?_? Sesshoumaru/......?_?, Kuwabaka/.....^__^ just wait and see. That enough info for you? ^^
sesshoumaru77: Cool! I'm hoping to finish...but since I have no clear plan...I don't know. But it seems that if I don't actually plan out my fics I tend to finish them faster. Let them take on a life of their own sorta. ^^
zing: YAY!!! I like to make people laugh! Can you tell? ^^
Snowfire the Kitsune: YAY!!! You like Kitsune Kagome! I hoped people would! Oh! Oh! I love that phrase! "Kick the cadaver!" Do you mind if I use that!? Thank you for liking that choice of name for the baby. I like it too! ^^ Which is why I chose it for one of my sons, of course. (=^-^=) Yeah, I think that's why people like kitsune too! They're playful, fun-loving and so cute! Thanks for the mischief! *turns it into sugar-high mischief and goes out on the town* ^____^
deathtree: O_O suspense! *adds in more* ^__^ enjoy!
shadowed death: Thanks! Is this soon enough? ^^
badluck-fangrrl: Yep! Osuwari may be tried and true, but it does get old. So I'm gonna have her be a bit more 'physical' from now on! I'm glad you like my fic! ^_~ Yep. Shounen-ai is good, but I'm a total yaoi fangirl. ^^ Which explains why I can be found at aff.net most of the time! :D I'm a very 'imaginative' person. Oh, your penname? Tell me you're a fan of the band Badluck from Gravitation! Pweeze!!? Hiro's my favorite bishy from there! Just love it when he takes Shuuichi's pocky away and licks it... (is a Hiro/Shuuichi fangirl) *drifts off into unwholesome thoughts* And the way he strums that guitar... The way he closes his eyes and his hair flows over his shoulder when he plays... @__@ *cough* I'm okay. I think the only scene better than that that I've seen so far is from Yami no Matsuei where, at the end of episode five, Watari jumps Tsuzuki-chan and strips him! ^_~ Or maybe it's the possessed Tsuzuki bit. "Give me your body!" ^__^ Or the poker game..? ;D Or the Nuriko/Tamahome kiss from Fushigi Yuugi watched while knowing Nuriko is a guy..? Ah hell! My favorite has gotta be the Ai no Kusabi IasonXRiki scene!!! LMAO *goes off to watch her secret yaoi stash/aka ogle the naked bishounen getting it on, then decides to reread Sleepless in the Sohma House instead...but just the Yuki/Haru bits* ^^
bluefuzzyelf: *smacks her with a snowball* Yep! I would love to have a groping Miroku plushie! Really? You liked the Noh Mask episode THAT much!? It's...okay. Not my favorite. But whatever works for you! I'd say my favorite episode so far is "Sesshoumaru Weilds Toukijin"...but you can guess why. ^_~ Adult Swim is so freaking evil!! Why the hell are they replaying them AGAIN!?!?!? I'm sure they're getting LOTS of hate mail! *throws another snowball at her, but hits a little guy with horns instead* Oops! Gotta go! I've already been thrown out of hell once for trying to take over! *runs away cackling manically* Run, run, run, as fast as you can! You can't catch me!! I'm the gingerbread man! Muwahahahaha!!! *trips over her tail and hits the ground* -_- K'so!
Nefra1: Yeah! I should, ne? Well, don't worry. Sesshoumaru's gotta make a reappearance! And just think...should he get ahold of one of those pics Miroku took...and should that pic make an appearance at...say...a gathering of the great houses....and Inu-chan might just happen to be there! LOL And there might just be a youkai named Nefra who decided to sell tickets to watch everyone humiliate him! ^__^ Ja!
Ana: No, I've stated before that it will NOT be an Inu/Kag fic. Kagome is paired with Youko. And, so far, InuYasha is paired with Kikyou...though that is definately gonna change. If I don't get three reviews against it, I'm gonna pair him with Kouga next chapter. The baby is a boy, which explains why I'm refering to him as "he" and thanks for the name suggestion! But Kaguya is the name of the villan in the second movie...Kaguya-hime. So I wouldn't use that one if it were a girl. Do like the name though! In most of my "Kagome's gets/has a baby" fics, and ones I've read, it's a girl and I wanted to change that. Thanks for your review!
rEgina: Yep! ^^ It's Youko/Kag!
Zavtra: YAY!!! Someone who doesn't usually like crossovers and 'changed Kagome' fics likes mine!! I'm so happy! *tears up* I love crossovers, but this is my first one...other than my fangirl fics. And I 'dislike' Kagome as she is normally because she's kinda a doormat I think, despite her attitude. She lets her feelings for others get the best of her, including her temper. I'm trying to get away from that in this fic and show her as an independant young woman with a good hold on herself. Yes, I purposefully made her look like Youko cause, yes, that is the pairing! ^^ O__O *stares in disbelief* You.....you....HOW IN THE SEVEN HELLS DID YOU GET IT!?!?!? *continues staring in stunned disbelief*
Sunbeam1: LOL Sure, I'll try to read one of your fics! I usually do read the fics of my reviewers...but with so many different people reviewing this fic (I'm still stunned about that) it's kinda hard to. If I need anything translated I'll be sure to hollar! ^__^ Thanks for the offer! I was learning Japanese, but I kinda don't have time for it anymore. Thanks for your reviews! ;p
~(*wips brow* Shoo! I think that's all the reviews! I need more chocolate. *wanders off*)~

Kitsune Delight
by Mistress Nika
Chapter Five
"Miroku's Got a Camera! O_O"
Kagome reached the well in record time. Looking down into the darkness of the well she thought, 'I think physical violence works better with InuYasha than the magic of the rosary! Well, at least it stunned him long enough for me to get away!' She giggled and said out loud, "I wonder what he thinks is wrong with me."
Shippou giggled from her shoulder and said, "I bet he thinks you're really mad at Kikyou and it's driven you insane!"
She laughed at that. "You're probably right, Shippou-chan." she replied. "But I kicked him a little harder than I should have...both of them actually. I think he might have some suspicions already."
The baby squirmed in her arms and she looked down into his gentle blue eyes. "How could anyone think you're evil?" she wondered. She ran her fingers along his tiny ears and he purred happily in response. "Well, I don't think InuYasha got a good smell of your scent, so I guess it's safe to do as Sango suggested. If I claim you now as mine and alter your scent InuYasha no baka won't realize it."
Kagome could see her mother's reaction to the baby now. She had been urging her daughter to take a more active role in finding a mate for years now and was dieing for grandchildren. She would squeal over him and insist on buying him things. Basically go into full grandmother mode. And once Kagome claimed him fully as her child his scent would change to echo her own. Really the purpose of changing the scent was to fool other youkai. If they knew the child was adopted, other youkai would be more likely to attack it. But if the scent told them that it was her biological child they would be a bit more hesitant.
Shippou picked up a strand of Kagome's hair and began nervously twirling it between his little fingers. "Okaasan?" he asked weakly.
Kagome turned her attention to him and asked, "What is it, Shippou-chan?"
He fiddled for a minute more before saying softly, "Well, I was wondering...since you're gonna claim him as your own... Would you do that for me too? I mean, it's not that I mind being your 'adopted' son, but...I wanna be your real son too."
Kagome's eyes softened at his words. "Shippou-chan," she began to explain gently, "you know that if I were to do that InuYasha would recognize the change. And he would be especially suspicious if your scent matched the baby's."
"Yeah." Shippou whined back, "but you're not gonna keep your secret from him for much longer right? So wouldn't it just be funny to watch him be all confused about it for a while?"
Kagome chuckled. She had to admit, he was right. It would certainly be funny to see. "Alright." she relented. "But let's do it on the other side of the well. I don't want InuYasha no baka to catch us."
Shippou nodded and Kagome wasted no time in leaping feet-first into the well. Actually she had caught several familiar scents approaching them on the wind and certainly didn't want to be around when they arrived.

Kouga rushed into the clearing for the second time that morning. He could've sworn he smelled his woman again...but once again, the scent had disappeared before he arrived.
Two seconds later InuYasha ran smack into him, knocking him to the ground and then proceeded to step on him as he made a beeline for the well. "Come back here, wench!" he shouted.
But Kouga wasn't about to let that slide. Mimicking InuYasha earlier he grabed the foot on his midsection and twisted. Unlike InuYasha he succeded in bringing the offender down. InuYasha fell onto his stomach in suprise, the wind quickly expelling from his lungs. Unfortunatly, the way he had twisted landed him right on top of the mangy wolf. And at that exact moment another player entered the clearing for his obligatory "Give me Tetsusaiga" scene.
"Give me Tetsus...." Sesshoumaru began but trailed off as he saw his little brother laying nose to nose on top of the wolf prince and panting for breath. With the shock of finding his little brother in such a scene, he almost made an expression! All he could do was stare, for once completely at a loss for words.
"InuYasha!" an annoying voice drifted through the trees, followed by the clay bitch herself. "Let the wench go. She's just my reinca..car...car...nation." She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw the strange and almost disturbing scene before her.
InuYasha, HER InuYasha, lay atop his arch rival gasping for breath while his elder brother looked on in what could only be described as complete and absolute horror. Which explained the slight widening of his eyes.
"NOOOO!!!" she shrieked. "You said you loved ME!!" Then she turned her back and fled back into the forest from whence she came.
On her way back into the trees she bumped into Miroku, but kept going. 'I wonder what that was all about.' the houshi thought to himself. But he didn't have long to wait as he emerged from the trees and also saw the sight. Unlike Sesshoumaru, he was not frozen in horror. And unlike the two youkai laying on the ground he was not frozen in terror. Instead he grinned, reached into his robes and pulled out a disposable camera. Of course, the other three had no clue what it was and mearly stared at him.
Kouga and InuYasha had yet to budge from their position and their shocked, terrified gazes had gone from Sesshoumaru, to Kikyou and now to Miroku. When Miroku brought the camera up to his eye and pressed the button a *FLASH!* brought them somewhat to their senses.
InuYasha suddenly realized exactly what that was. The wench had brought one with her before and he remembered that it captured images. Suddenly realizing what Miroku was doing, he attempted to leap to his feet. However, Kouga had also at that moment made to get up and they smacked heads with each other.
InuYasha fell back on his butt but managed to catch himself with a hand and hold his head with his other. Kouga, however, wasn't so lucky. He pitched forward and fell face first into InuYasha's lap. Needless to say it was a very suggetive position. *FLASH!* Another picture was taken by the hentai houshi!
InuYasha's eyes went wide and he grabbed Kouga by his ponytail, pulling his head up. "Get offa me you stupid wolf!!" he shouted, only to find that Kouga was out cold. InuYasha lost his grip on the hair and Kouga once again pitched forward. This time his arms flailed out, knocking InuYasha's arm he was using for balance out from under him. InuYasha fell backwards and Kouga fell on top of him. InuYasha, of course, tried to stop it and reached out to grab Kouga's falling body. But instead he misjudged the distance and Kouga fell neatly in between his arms, his head coming to rest on the hanyou's chest. *FLASH!* ANOTHER picture!
"MIROKU!!!" InuYasha howled from under the wolf prince's limp body. "I'M GONNA TEAR YOU INTO BITE-SIZED PIECES!!!"
"Uh-oh!" Miroku cried as he saw InuYasha strugling to free himself again. The houshi tore off into the forest as fast as his terrified legs could take him, after turning around to once more *FLASH!* He couldn't resist shouting back a last taunting cry of, "I bet the village will get a kick out of these!!"
"HOUSHI!!!!" InuYasha screamed in mounting rage as Miroku's continuing laughter reached his ears.
This entire time Sesshoumaru had remained stunned in place and InuYasha turned his glare on him. "Sesshoumaru!" he demanded. "Get this baka wolf offa me!!"
Sesshoumaru blinked twice at him and then actually smirked. "Little brother," he said in his normal monotone, however this time a hint of amusement threatened to show through, "shouldn't you take this somewhere more private?" Then he turned his back and began to walk calmly and gracefully away.
"Sesshoumaru!" InuYasha yelled at his departing brother's back. "What kinda brother are you!? Don't leave me here like this!! SESSHOUMARU!!!" After he didn't get any reply, which he sorta expected, he stopped yelling himself hoarse and settled down. "Damn, you're heavy." he mumbled to the still unconscious wolf. He tried pushing him off again, now that he was calmer and in better control. Afterall, no one was watching him now...or snapping pictures. -_- Unfortunately Kouga unconsciously wrapped both arms around the hanyou's tense body and held on tight.
"Kagome." the wolf mumbled in his sleep and snuggled into InuYasha's chest.
InuYasha rolled his eyes. "Even unconscious she's all he thinks about." InuYasha tried for a good twenty minutes to make him let go before giving up. "Well, he's gotta come around sometime." he reasoned. "And it'll certainly be worth a couple hours of him clinging to me if I can embarass him good when he wakes up." And with that decided, InuYasha lay back down to wait it out.
Unseen from a bush a pair of eyes watched them. Before departing a voice said, "Kukuku."
~~~~~~~~~~~
On the other side, Kagome started to leap out of the well, but heard noises from outside. It sounded like...people. Lot's of them. Suddenly she smacked her head in realization. "The field trip!" she cried. "I forgot all about it! MY school is having a field trip to MY shrine! If they find I'm not here...they'll know I'm not really sick! We've got to hurry!"
In a flash she transformed into her true form and Shippou hopped down from her shoulder. "Shippou-chan?" she said bending down to his level. "Can you hold the baby? You two need to be together so I can claim you both at the same time."
He nodded and she handed him the baby which he took gently into his small arms. Kagome took a step back from them and closed her eyes. A gentle wind blew only in the confined space of the well and she chanted softly under her breath.
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Damn it!" Yusuke cursed upon counting the five hundreth step they'd climbed. "Why the hell do we have to go chasing after some kitsune that isn't even a threat!?"
"Because," Kurama said calmly, "this particular kitsune is a miko. A youkai miko is very uncommon and Koenma believes we could benefit from her friendship. Which is why you and I were sent alone. Kuwabara's...enthusiasm...may frighten her away. And Hiei is not the friendly type."
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." Yusuke groaned as they reached the top. "Finally." he sighed. "No more steps." Then his eyes narrowed angrily. "Oh you have GOT to be kidding me!"
Standing before them was a large crowd of teenage girls all dressed in green-and-white sailor fukus.
"How many of those do you think happen to be fifteen years old and have black hair?" Yusuke asked sarcastically. "Why couldn't the shrimp have given us more details!?"
"Because," Kurama began, "That is all the information we have on her. A female kitsune with miko powers. Fifteen years old, black hair, currently located at Higurashi Shrine."
"Yeah," Yusuke complained. "But he couldn't have even given us a name!?"
"He did not believe we would need it. Normally there would not be many teenage girls at a shrine while school is in attendance."
"Well that's certainly not the case now, is it!?" Yusuke complained. "What are we supposed to do? Go up to every girl and ask her if she's a demon in disguise!?"
(A/N=please bear with me. I seem to remember Kagome's friend's names being Yuka, Eiri and Ayumi. I don't know if that's right and I don't feel like going through my numerous tapes to find out. So here they are. o.O I don't even remember what they look like!)
Yusuke's attention was diverted though as he heard one girl whisper, "Hey, Yuka. Look over there."
"Yeah." another girl whispered back. "Nice. His friend's not too bad either."
Yusuke groaned and glanced over to the whispering girls. There were three of them, and they were looking directly at a certain red-haired bishounen with big, star-filled eyes.
"I can't take you anywhere, can I?" Yusuke asked Kurama with a roll of his eyes.
"Nani?" Kurama asked as he had been gazing over the crowd, searching for their target and not listening to what Yusuke had heard. He didn't have long to wonder though as all three girls seemed to materialize in front of him.
"Hi." one breathed while staring adoringly up at him. "I'm Yuka. Are you single by any chance?"
Kurama took a startled step back as the other two giggled shyly.
'We don't have time for this.' he thought. 'But I don't want to hurt their feelings.' Luckily Kurama had been in this situation before. (A/N=MANY times before!)
He smiled sweetly at them and said, "Actually, I'm afraid I'm already in a serious relationship. We're very much in love and even ladies as beautiful as you are not able to sway my heart."
All three sighed half in disappointment and half in awe.
"That's okay." Yuka said. "It's good to be in love."
"Yeah." her friend agreed. "He's very lucky to have someone like you. Well, ja!" And with that they turned and left.
Kurama could only stare as they walked back to their group. "H.he?" he sputtered. "They think I'm..."
"Bwahahahaha!!!!" Yusuke burst out laughing. "Yeah!" he agreed as he held his sides while continuing to laugh. "Hiei's really lucky!!"
Kurama spun to face Yusuke in shock. "Hiei!?" he asked. "But...we're not....I mean..."
Kurama's fevered denial was cut short though as both boys suddenly froze and their eyes began darting back and forth across the shrine.
"Youki." Yusuke said quietly. "Do you feel it, Kurama?"
Kurama nodded his agreement. "Powerful." he responded. "I believe..." his eyes searched the crown until they came to rest on the sacred well house. "There!" he stated with certainty.
Both boys nodded and cautiously began to make their way over to it. After checking to make sure no one was watching them, they slid the door open and slipped silently inside, making sure to close it again behind them. They didn't see anything in the darkness, but they could definately feel a powerful youki surrounding them. They were surprised when they heard a small child-like whimper come from the well followed by a "Shh!"
A flash of silver suddenly rose up from the well and took it's place opposite them with it's back facing the wall. Yusuke could only stare at the gorgeous creature that now stood before them. And Kurama felt he were going to pass out! It couldn't be!
Kagome narrowed her golden eyes at them and growled deep in her chest. These two didn't feel like humans, at least not completely. Her miko's powers were tugging at her senses and telling her they had youkai blood, even though her nose told her they were human. Now she was glad she had changed her clothes from her school uniform to a more fitting outfit. The one she normally wore in her youkai form. A chinese style, silver fighting kimono. If they were looking for a fight, or to hurt her newly claimed kits, she would need to move freely and her uniform certainly didn't give her that option.
Shippou peeked out from behind her head to get a look at the enemy and quickly ducked back. They smelled human, but if his okaasan said they were dangerous then it had to be true.
Kagome took a step backwards until her back pressed into the rough wooden wall of the well house. She growled once again in warning, louder this time, and clutched the baby to her chest. One of them had taken a step towards her.
Kurama placed a hand on Yusuke's arm and pulled him back. "Don't." he said calmly.
Yusuke gave him a confused look and questioned, "What? Why not? Isn't she who we're looking for?"
Kurama nodded but never took his eyes off her. He nodded toward her and said, "Look. She has kits."
Yusuke took in the baby in her arms and the little hand clutching her shoulder from behind. "So?" he asked, still confused.
Kurama almost felt the need to roll his eyes, but knew that to take his eyes off her would be foolhardy. "Yusuke, what happens when you back an animal into a corner and it feels threatened with nowhere to go?"
Yusuke thought for a minute before saying slowly, "It...fights back?"
Kurama nodded again and said, "And what happens if that animal happens to be a mother protecting her offspring?"
Before Yusuke could respond Kagome spoke up. "Who are you?" she asked, her words dripping poison. "If you were sent by Naraku I promise I'll tear you apart before I let you have my son."
Yusuke just looked even more confused. "Naraku?" he questioned. "Who's that?"
Kurama was shocked again. Not only was she a silver kitsune like him, she also knew of the evil hanyou Naraku! And why would she think they were sent by him? He's been dead for five hundred years! "No." he said to her. "We were not sent by Naraku. We were sent by Koenma to gain your friendship. If you are in fact the youkai miko?"
Kagome nodded slowly, but she still didn't trust them Sent by Koenma? Well, that certainly was new if they WERE from Naraku. But still...she couldn't trust them yet. "Prove it." she said.
Now Yusuke and Kurama were stumped. How were they supposed to prove it? It's not like Koenma had given them employee badges or anything! Yusuke began going through his pockets, pulling out various gadgets the toddler had given him, hoping they would prove their legitimacy.
Kagome watched as he continued to rifle through his clothes, piling strange looking objects on the floor and muttering about demented toddlers.
Kurama finally spoke up and said, "Actually, we have no way to prove it. Unless you agree to come with us. But I doubt that you will."
Kagome narrowed her eyes at him. The other one seemed so clueless he couldn't be a threat, kind of like InuYasha. But that one...he seemed too wise to be just a human teenager. "What are you?" she asked carefully. "You smell human, but you have very well disguised youki."
Kurama allowed a smile to grace his lips. He knew this would come up. "I am a kitsune spirit in the body of a human." he said calmly. "And I assure you, we mean you no harm."
Kagome continued to study him. It was true, if he were a kitsune, she could trust him. Kitsune weren't by nature violent and would never harm their own. But it would be too easy to say he is a kitsune when he is not in order to gain her trust. She needed proof. "Let me see your true form then." she said finally.
____________________________________________________________________________________
(A/N) BWAHAHAHA!!! Cliffhanger!!! How do you think she's gonna react to finding out he's...well...him? ^__^ Okay, for the sake of this fic we're gonna pretend we know relatively how old Kurama is. Let's say he's about seven hundred, which would mean he was alive when Naraku was. And, uh...the only reviews that have mentioned the shounen-ai issue are for it...or don't really care one way or the other. So if no one protests this chapter, next chapter shounen-ai will officially begin! Three reviews against it is all it takes to make me remove the shounen-ai. But I'll have you know that InuYasha/Kouga is my all time favorite pairing for this series! Followed closely by Sess/Inu and Kouga/Kag! ^^ Am I sick and twisted? Yes, yes I am! ^___^
______________________________________________________________________________________
Reviews have made me realize the truth about myself. "I'm a kitsune spirit in the body of an inu-neko hanyou!"
Killiara: Otay! How's this for a friend song? "Bloodshed, Carnage, Death and Destruction! You can run. You can hide. But soon my friends and I shall...KILL YOU!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!!!" (chases random people with a spork) [Bakura: "No, she's not yami right now. She's just had three pieces of chocolate peanut butter fudge, five sweet pickles, four chocolate covered thin mints, a black cherry soda and a Dr. Pepper in the past hour. The other bishys and I are hiding under her bed...it's a tight squeeze. -_- [Nika: *flips over the bed* AH HA!! I found you!! [Bishys: O___O [Nika: The Evil Flying Mashmallows have infiltrated my home and taken over my bishys!!! Don't worry! I'll seperate them from you!!! *begins chasing them with a spork* [All bishys: AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! [Nika: Come back! Don't worry!! It's just a minor labotomy!!! I've been studying!!] *waves banner* Go Silver Foxes!! Way cool!! I'm definately gonna try to use the "Creepy Keeky" bit! I'm thinking of posting one of my fansongs too! It's "Baby Love" by Diana Ross. But I made it for Naraku and called it "Monkey Love" ^__^ My friend and I made it up years ago...now I've just gotta try to remember the words! lol
carol: ....'suitable'? Nani? What do you mean by 'suitable'? ^^ I'm always freaky!! [Naraku: *puts an arm around her waist and grins* Yes...very freaky. [Nika: *screams bloody murder* AHHH!!!! It's Monkey Love MAN!!! *dives into a lake and begins to swim for safety...then remembers she can't swim* O.o *gurgle-gurgle* ....help?
greeneydgrl74: I think we ALL wanna kick Kikyou! I know I sure do! ^^ Thanks! I'm so glad you like my fic!
Kay Kylo: O_O Does no one respond to your reviews..? That's just...cruel! I always do, no matter how many hours...yes, HOURS it takes! It shows that I care about my reviewers! Because without you guys I would never continue my fics! *sends her a Kikyou plushie* Here, it can be used in many different ways, but I suggest bringing it to life and venting all your anger on it! ^^ Have fun!
Kagome lover 2009: O__O You........you..........don't like.....KURAMA!?!?!? *faints dead away* *Miroku and Sango rush to her rescue* [Miroku: Perhaps I should breath air into her..? [Sango: Hentai! *bashes him* She didn't drown! *begins slapping her face trying to rouse her* Come on, Nika-sama! Don't die on me! You said we could get drunk, stalk, corner in a dark alley and spank the ass of various bishounen!! [Miroku: O_o....wasn't that a quiz?]
Black Ruby Kitsune: Thanks! Is this chapter long enough?
Japanese_Dragon: Yep! I think Kikyou's gonna have major mental problems if she emerges from this fic alive! ^^ Well, I think she does already...but not enough! And not the right ones! ^___^
Kage Otome: Well, you see, I can't really decide on how she claims them. First I went with the bite mark...but that's over done. So I went with a magical spell...but didn't explain it all because I was stumped on it. Is this okay? Yes, this is a crossover. It says so in the summary. If you wish me to tell you everything I will say it is: InuYasha/Yuu Yuu Hakusho crossover. And the pairings are: Youko/Kagome, Miroku/Sango, Kouga/InuYasha/Kikyou, Yusuke/Keiko, Hiei/...?_? Sesshoumaru/......?_?, Kuwabaka/.....^__^ just wait and see. That enough info for you? ^^
sesshoumaru77: Cool! I'm hoping to finish...but since I have no clear plan...I don't know. But it seems that if I don't actually plan out my fics I tend to finish them faster. Let them take on a life of their own sorta. ^^
zing: YAY!!! I like to make people laugh! Can you tell? ^^
Snowfire the Kitsune: YAY!!! You like Kitsune Kagome! I hoped people would! Oh! Oh! I love that phrase! "Kick the cadaver!" Do you mind if I use that!? Thank you for liking that choice of name for the baby. I like it too! ^^ Which is why I chose it for one of my sons, of course. (=^-^=) Yeah, I think that's why people like kitsune too! They're playful, fun-loving and so cute! Thanks for the mischief! *turns it into sugar-high mischief and goes out on the town* ^____^
deathtree: O_O suspense! *adds in more* ^__^ enjoy!
shadowed death: Thanks! Is this soon enough? ^^
badluck-fangrrl: Yep! Osuwari may be tried and true, but it does get old. So I'm gonna have her be a bit more 'physical' from now on! I'm glad you like my fic! ^_~ Yep. Shounen-ai is good, but I'm a total yaoi fangirl. ^^ Which explains why I can be found at aff.net most of the time! :D I'm a very 'imaginative' person. Oh, your penname? Tell me you're a fan of the band Badluck from Gravitation! Pweeze!!? Hiro's my favorite bishy from there! Just love it when he takes Shuuichi's pocky away and licks it... (is a Hiro/Shuuichi fangirl) *drifts off into unwholesome thoughts* And the way he strums that guitar... The way he closes his eyes and his hair flows over his shoulder when he plays... @__@ *cough* I'm okay. I think the only scene better than that that I've seen so far is from Yami no Matsuei where, at the end of episode five, Watari jumps Tsuzuki-chan and strips him! ^_~ Or maybe it's the possessed Tsuzuki bit. "Give me your body!" ^__^ Or the poker game..? ;D Or the Nuriko/Tamahome kiss from Fushigi Yuugi watched while knowing Nuriko is a guy..? Ah hell! My favorite has gotta be the Ai no Kusabi IasonXRiki scene!!! LMAO *goes off to watch her secret yaoi stash/aka ogle the naked bishounen getting it on, then decides to reread Sleepless in the Sohma House instead...but just the Yuki/Haru bits* ^^
bluefuzzyelf: *smacks her with a snowball* Yep! I would love to have a groping Miroku plushie! Really? You liked the Noh Mask episode THAT much!? It's...okay. Not my favorite. But whatever works for you! I'd say my favorite episode so far is "Sesshoumaru Weilds Toukijin"...but you can guess why. ^_~ Adult Swim is so freaking evil!! Why the hell are they replaying them AGAIN!?!?!? I'm sure they're getting LOTS of hate mail! *throws another snowball at her, but hits a little guy with horns instead* Oops! Gotta go! I've already been thrown out of hell once for trying to take over! *runs away cackling manically* Run, run, run, as fast as you can! You can't catch me!! I'm the gingerbread man! Muwahahahaha!!! *trips over her tail and hits the ground* -_- K'so!
Nefra1: Yeah! I should, ne? Well, don't worry. Sesshoumaru's gotta make a reappearance! And just think...should he get ahold of one of those pics Miroku took...and should that pic make an appearance at...say...a gathering of the great houses....and Inu-chan might just happen to be there! LOL And there might just be a youkai named Nefra who decided to sell tickets to watch everyone humiliate him! ^__^ Ja!
Ana: No, I've stated before that it will NOT be an Inu/Kag fic. Kagome is paired with Youko. And, so far, InuYasha is paired with Kikyou...though that is definately gonna change. If I don't get three reviews against it, I'm gonna pair him with Kouga next chapter. The baby is a boy, which explains why I'm refering to him as "he" and thanks for the name suggestion! But Kaguya is the name of the villan in the second movie...Kaguya-hime. So I wouldn't use that one if it were a girl. Do like the name though! In most of my "Kagome's gets/has a baby" fics, and ones I've read, it's a girl and I wanted to change that. Thanks for your review!
rEgina: Yep! ^^ It's Youko/Kag!
Zavtra: YAY!!! Someone who doesn't usually like crossovers and 'changed Kagome' fics likes mine!! I'm so happy! *tears up* I love crossovers, but this is my first one...other than my fangirl fics. And I 'dislike' Kagome as she is normally because she's kinda a doormat I think, despite her attitude. She lets her feelings for others get the best of her, including her temper. I'm trying to get away from that in this fic and show her as an independant young woman with a good hold on herself. Yes, I purposefully made her look like Youko cause, yes, that is the pairing! ^^ O__O *stares in disbelief* You.....you....HOW IN THE SEVEN HELLS DID YOU GET IT!?!?!? *continues staring in stunned disbelief*
Sunbeam1: LOL Sure, I'll try to read one of your fics! I usually do read the fics of my reviewers...but with so many different people reviewing this fic (I'm still stunned about that) it's kinda hard to. If I need anything translated I'll be sure to hollar! ^__^ Thanks for the offer! I was learning Japanese, but I kinda don't have time for it anymore. Thanks for your reviews! ;p
~(*wips brow* Shoo! I think that's all the reviews! I need more chocolate. *wanders off*)~
