"Two Worlds, One Heart"
Session 2
By Jesia
"Inuyasha, stop being so stubborn! You know I have a huge exam tomorrow; I need to go home and study!"
"Kagome, we're getting so close to finding another shard. I can feel it! You heard what those villagers said." The hard-headed hanyou sat Indian-style against a thick tree trunk on the outskirts of Yuki Village, attempting to convince his 'jewel-detector' to stay. "Just a couple more days, then you can go back to your time and take that 'egg-zam'. Then not only will you be done with that, but we'll be one more Shikon Jewel shard closer to defeating Naraku!"
"Hmph." The ambitious, equally-adamant ninth-grader sealed her teddy-bear brown eyes shut in disdain and hoisted her cumbersome yellow backpack onto one shoulder. "Inuyasha… as much as I want to defeat Naraku…"
"Uh?" Inuyasha suddenly seemed interested in what Kagome was about to say, and leaned forward expectantly.
"SIT BOY!"
The halfling's bead necklace flashed brilliantly in an instant. "Gragh!" His face smashed promptly into the dirt.
"Hmph, jerk."
Inuyasha glared up at Kagome from his new position on the ground, and was about to counterattack with a 'feh' when Miroku and Sango intruded. Both stared first at Inuyasha, then directed their gazes to Kagome, then back to the hanyou. Huge sweatdrops spontaneously developed on cue.
"Uhh, do I dare ask what just happened?" Sango began cautiously.
"It's quite obvious. Don't you think?" Miroku interrupted. "Kagome needs to go home, but Inuyasha won't let her… So she sat him."
"Ahh, I see," the demon slayer concurred, nodding her head in agreement.
Shippo abruptly popped in as well, animate, as he had observed everything from the tree branch. "Yeah! That's right, Miroku. That's exactly what happened. Inuyasha, why do you have to be such a blockhead when you know it doesn't get you anywhere but the ground--?"
"Rrrrr…" Inuyashagrowled furiously, giving the kit a nice wallop on the head.
"OUCH! That hurt!" Tears sprang to Shippo's eyes as he rubbed the lump on his head.
"Inuyasha, stop being so insensitive!" Kagome huffed, exasperated. "I'm going home. End of discussion."
