Chapter 6: The Holiday Scrooge Part 1 Authors: US!!!

Yang: Oh, my dear kiddies, how I've missed you so. I have been playing the InuYasha game…Secret of the Cursed Mask…. I beat it!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!

Ying: It's sad really…It's MY game, and we're not even related…I tried to play, but my characters didn't like each other, and InuYasha kept cursing at me. The only good thing was that Yang's character developed a crush on Miroku…I was on the floor dying. Sesshy was only in it a couple of times though, and I hate Yang because she got to fight with him…GRRRR!!!!

Yang: I cried and cried and cried over my ending…then I remembered that I got to play with Sesshy and I rubbed it in her-what happened???

Ying: Jakey almost ate the InuYasha plushy AAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Yang: I'm going to strangle Jakey…by the way, Jakey is her dog not her kid brother….

Ying: Anyway, we're sorry about the delay of our writing. The game took awhile and we also had to watch the InuYasha movies: Affections Touching Across Time and The Castle Beyond The Looking Glass. WATCH THEM!!!!

Yang: The Inu/Kag kiss scene was sooo adorable!!!!

Ying: Anyway, in this chapter we will have the discovery of Christmas and the return of…you guessed it! Hojo-jojo.

Yang; and now lets begin….cue the fog machine!!!!

Ying: (Takes this opportunity to sneak away and stalk Sesshy…)

Yang: And ACTION!!!!! (You see me in a little directors chair and hat….with the megaphone)

Feudal Era

We now find Kagome stuffing her oversized backpack with InuYasha watching her and Shippo begging her not to go.

"Why the hell do you need to go back to that stupid era of yours? We need you here to find the Jewel Shards!" InuYasha yelled as she kept packing.

"Oh, is that all you see me as?! Just a Shard Collector!?" she yelled as she kept packing. "I can't wait to see mom, grandpa, and even Sota. Will I even see Hojo? Do I want to see Hojo? No, no I don't want to see him; I don't even want to think about him. See I'm already not thinking about him. Wait I am, oh boy, no I won't see him. It's the holidays. He'll probably hunt me down with some foot fixing, back straightening, herbal tea, chunky, soup thingy. I MUST avoid mistletoe at all costs…unless I want to kiss him…Hmmmm…NO!!!!! I definitely DO NOT want to kiss him!!"

During this conversation in her head, InuYasha was watching her strangely. "Foot fixing, back straightening, herbal tea, chunky, soup thingy…What the hell is she thinking about?!?! Wait. Who is this Hojo? What does she mean kissing!?!?? What is mistletoe? Is it like ramen? I don't like this mistletoe…"

"Who's Hojo?" InuYasha asked, his curiosity getting the better of him.

"Hojo? Nobody," she answered, trying to make a clean get away.

"Fine then…What's mistletoe?"

"Mistletoe? How do you know about mistletoe?" Kagome asked, surprised.

"Uhh, you mentioned it uhh once before!"

"No I didn't. I did?"

"Yeah! You did. Now who is Hojo?!"

"I told you before! NOBODY!!" Kagome answered angrily, with about five pulsating anger marks appearing on her forehead. InuYasha backed away slowly.

"So then, back to the mistletoe?" InuYasha asked.

"Mistletoe is well, ummm, it's a plant that you…"

"Can you eat it?" Shippo butted in.

"I don't think so. Well, when a boy and a girl hold this plant over their heads or walk underneath it, they have to kiss." Kagome said.

"What's the point of that?" InuYasha asked.

"I like this mistletoe already. Where can I get some?" Miroku asked. Kagome rolled her eyes.

"You perverted monk…" InuYasha began.

"InuYasha, do you want Kagome to bring some for you?" Shippo said, unaware of the effects it brought on.

"NO!!!!" InuYasha yelled, diving for Shippo.

"AHH!! Help me. Hey you can't hit me! I'm just a little kid!" Shippo yelled running for cover.

"I don't care!" InuYasha yelled in reply.

"Help!!! OWWWW!!!" Shippo started to cry as InuYasha continued to pound him on the head.

"Now, now, InuYasha. Shippo was only teasing you," Miroku tried to say.

"Stay out of it!" InuYasha replied.

"Kagome, I think that you need to calm him down," Miroku said quietly to Kagome.

"InuYasha…" Kagome began threateningly.

"No! Kagome! Don't!" InuYasha yelled, panicking.

"SIT!"

InuYasha got up slowly from his previous position on the ground and shook himself off, spraying everyone around him with dirt, pebbles, and some bugs. Miroku, Shippo, and Kagome watched him in amazement, shocked about how dog-like InuYasha could be.

"InuYasha, you're always complaining about me going back to my era. I'd like to see you last two days in my era. I bet you can't even last five minutes," Kagome said, challengingly.

"Are you challenging me?" InuYasha snarled.

"Wait, I can use this to my advantage. It'll be Christmas tomorrow…It'll be fun to see InuYasha's reaction…He won't know what to do with himself…This'll be fun..." Kagome thought as her plan began to formulate. InuYasha was to busy being angry to notice what Kagome was thinking. (A/N: Remember, he can hear what women are thinking.)

"Yes, I am challenging you. I challenge you to spend two days in my era without coming back here for any reason. You'll see how hectic it is in my world," Kagome said, grinning at InuYasha's reaction.

"Fine, but if I make it, you can't make me sit for two weeks, no matter what I do," InuYasha said.

"Fine, but what if I win?" Kagome asked.

"Then he has to kiss you," Miroku butted in, quite unannounced and uninvited.

"WHAT!!!!!?????" InuYasha and Kagome yelled at the same time.

"Well, you see, it's really quite simple. If he wins, you can't make him sit for two weeks, but if you win, he has to kiss you." Miroku said, as if explaining it to two year-olds.

"Yes, I think we all understood that much!" Kagome snapped. "What I don't understand is why you would say such a thing!"

"Are you telling me that you don't want to kiss him?" Miroku asked innocently.

"Well, I uhh, I mean, ummm, Ye-NO, NO, NO!!!! Can we just get off this topic already!" Kagome stuttered, turning red.

"Oh, so now you don't like me, is that it?!" InuYasha snapped, glaring at Kagome and Miroku.

"You know what? Just forget it! I give up! I win, he kisses me. Are you happy now!?!?!?!?" Kagome yelled in complete defeat.

"Yes," Miroku said, simply. "What do you think?"

"I think you should run while you still have a chance…" InuYasha growled, glaring at Miroku.

"Oh, so now you don't like me," Kagome said, reversing what InuYasha said to her back to him.

"That's not what I meant," InuYasha snapped at her.

"Oh? So what did you mean?"

"I, uhh, meant, err…Never mind! L-Let's just go that era of yours," InuYasha stammered. "That was a close one! The sooner we get off this subject, the better!"

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

Present Time:

As they jumped through the other side of the well, InuYasha marveled at the powdery white stuff. He bent down and took a handful of snow and ate it.

"COLD!!!COLD!!!COLD!!!COLD!!!" InuYasha yelled with his arms flailing about.

"Shut Up!!! Someone will hear you! Do you want to make a scene?" Kagome said shushing him.

InuYasha looked at her with a face like 'what did I do?' She grabbed his hand and dragged him to the house. As she stormed in she went past everyone and ran right to her room.

"You can't be walking around outside like that. That's why you have to where this. Now put it on!" Kagome brandished one of Sota's baseball caps at him. InuYasha looked at it as if it would attack him.

"What is that?" he asked suspiciously. Kagome sighed. It was going to be murder trying to get him to adjust to the clothes. She tried again.

"This is a baseball cap. You need to wear it because people in this time don't walk around with dog ears," she said forcing the small cap over InuYasha's head.

"Owww! Owww! That's too tight, too tight! It hurts my ears! My ears are being crushed!!" he yelled, as Kagome pulled off the cap.

"Sorry. I'm going to have to take you shopping, aren't I?" Kagome asked, loosening the cap.

"Shopping, I don't want to go shopping. I don't like the sound of shopping. Shopping is for women," he said, annoyed.

"Not that kind of shopping. I mean shopping at the mall."

"What's the mall? I don't like the sound of this mall. What do you do there?"

"You shop for clothes and other things."

"I don't want to shop for clothes. What's wrong with these clothes?" he asked.

"In this time, nobody dresses in kimonos," she explained.

"Oh, so I guess that Hojo doesn't wear these clothes," InuYasha quickly snapped back, massaging his squashed ears.

"Well, if you don't want to wear the clothes, you can just go back to the Feudal Era and admit defeat," Kagome said, knowing what the answer would be. InuYasha grabbed her wrist, pulled on the cap, and dragged her out of the door.

"C'mon, let's go!" InuYasha yelled, storming down the street. Kagome smiled, she knew that the last comment would get him. "Now where is this mall thing of yours?" InuYasha asked, looking around at his surroundings. Kagome giggled.

"It's this way," she said, pulling him in the opposite direction.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

At The Mall

Kagome dragged InuYasha through the crowds at the mall, ignoring the stares of people as they passed. InuYasha, however, was not as lucky.

"Hey, who's that?"

"Does he go to my school?"

"Wow, I like his hair color! Is it natural?"

"Hey, he's kinda cute."

InuYasha blushed at the last comment.Fortunately, he didn't have chance to hear anything else because Kagome dragged him into a clothing store.

"Okay, you are going to pick out an outfit, try it on, and if you like it, I'll buy it. Pick out something nice," she said. InuYasha stared about fifteen question marks at her.

"You're hopeless. I'LL pick out your clothes," she said dragging him yet again through the store. As she dragged him around, she picked up various articles of clothing. She then led him to a dressing room and handed him a pile of clothing as tall as he was.

"Am I supposed to wear all that?" InuYasha asked incredulously. Kagome laughed.

"Not at the same time, you idiot," Kagome said, laughing. "You try each outfit on one at a time. Then we'll buy the one you like the best."

"And what if I don't like any of them?"

"You'll choose one if you know what's good for you," Kagome said menacingly voice. InuYasha gulped. He weighed the situation and then slowly picked up the towering pile of clothes and slowly made his way to a changing room.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

(30 minutes later)

"What are you DOING in there, InuYasha?! It's already been half an hour!" Kagome yelled from outside the closed doors. InuYasha flung a pair of pants over the door.

"I can't get these on!" InuYasha yelled, blushing. Nearby people looked over curiously. Kagome blushed.

"You idiot! Stop making a scene. Do you want me to go in there?!" Kagome yelled back. Two old ladies passing by made a face.

"Kids these days. So young…"the more wrinkly one with the moustache said.

"Hey old bat! Do you want me go out there and give you piece of my mind?!" InuYasha yelled from inside the changing room. The old ladies made even worse faces.

"InuYasha…SIT!!" Kagome yelled. There was a loud yell and a crash from inside the dressing room. A crowd started to gather muttering to themselves.

"Why'd you go and do that for, Kagome?" InuYasha asked, wincing as he tried to get up. Kagome finally lost her temper.

"That's it! I'm coming in there!" she yelled. People all around glared at her. "Get your minds out of the gutter!" she yelled at the scandalized old ladies and the other people around her. Then she barged into the dressing room, but she couldn't get the door open.

"You ARE NOT coming in here! Do you hear me!? DO NOT come in here!!!" InuYasha yelled, holding onto the door so Kagome couldn't open it. Unfortunately Kagome "sat" him again and got in.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

(20 minutes and 5 "sits" later

"Come on out. Stop being a baby, you look fine!" Kagome said, trying to coax InuYasha out of the dressing room. He wouldn't budge, nor would he unlock the door, once he figured out how to make it lock. "Would you come out for ramen?" she asked sweetly.

"No!" he said stubbornly.

"Not even for ramen? Wow, you must really not like the outfit."

"Give me back my regular clothes," he said, being as Kagome had taken his clothes hostage as soon as she got him to wear clothes from her time. She said he could have them back when the two days were over.

"But I bet you look really cute wearing those clothes, InuYasha," Kagome said, hoping that it would get him out of the dressing room. The door flew open.

"What did you say?!?!?" InuYasha yelled, his face a bright, neon, pink and pulsating. Kagome was about to make a sarcastic remark, but when she saw him, the words got stuck in her throat. InuYasha was wearing a pair of black jeans and a very well form-fitting black shirt. (A/N: Ying: Yang has currently passed out from seeing this…So I'll say make your own conclusions…)

"What are you staring at?" InuYasha said, sullenly. Kagome turned a pinkish color.

"Oh my God, he's hot!" Kagome thought to herself. InuYasha gulped and slowly started to back away. Then he ran into the changing room and slammed the door. Kagome, unaware that InuYasha could currently read women's minds, didn't know what to make of the situation.

"What's the matter? I didn't say anything!" she called.

"It's not what you said, it's what you thought!" InuYasha thought as he slowly made his way back out.

"After we get you shoes, you can have all the ramen you want," Kagome said, dragging him into a shoe store. After a few disheartening attempts, they both finally settled on black Nike's.

"Ow, oww, owww!! Kagome! These hurt my feet!!" InuYasha yelled, as he walked weirdly through the crowd.

"Oh you'll get used to them. Come on it's getting dark, and we should be getting home," Kagome said. Then they heard someone call out.

"Kagome!"

"Oh, no!!" Kagome thought frantically. InuYasha turned around and saw…

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

And now for the return of Hojo-jojo

"I am Hojo-jojo! You thought you could get rid of me, but you were wrong since I am Ho-jojo! You cannot defeat Hojo-jojo, because I am the undefeatable Hojo-jojo. Hojo-jojo will resume his plans of rescuing Kagome from the evil InuYasha because I, Hojo-jojo, am meant to be with her! To Hojo-jojo, Kagome is a valuable princess. That is why Hojo-jojo deserves her and if ever, InuYasha dares to defy me, I-…" InuYasha starts kicking his ass.

"What did I tell about that Hojo-jojo crap!" InuYasha yelled. Kagome, meanwhile, stares into the distance dreamily thinking about being a valuable princess. Anime bubbles surround her, and Ying and I start popping them.

Ying and Yang: Part two is coming to a theater near you! Don't miss it!
