Species Problem

"Ever heard of knocking?" asked Kagome, as she turned bright red. "And who said you could speak for yourself? I need more proof that some lousy words from a fox."

"Lousy?" repeated Youko, as he raised an eyebrow. "Are you saying you don't believe my words?"

"Exactly." confirmed Kagome. "Foxes are known to be sly and good at tricking people.

How do I know you're not just playing around with me? Using me as a toy?"

Youko growled low in his throat, as he pushed Kagome onto the bed. "I do not kid around with finding a life mate." Youko snarled, as he dipped his mouth into the crook of Kagome's neck.

"Get off me." demanded Kagome, as she attempted to push Youko off. No such luck.

"Can we talk?"

"Go ahead." replied Youko, as he smirked at the girl beneath him.

"We will talk, when you remove yourself." growled out Kagome, as she shoved Youko off. Kagome panted heavily. "I am not an item! You might like me, but I don't like you!"

"Wrong." stated Youko with a smirk. "I don't like you..."

"Humph. I knew it." snorted Kagome.

"I love you." finished Youko, ignoring Kagome's interruption. "And I know you love me too. How can you resist me? When no other females have?"

"Your really full of yourself, you know that?" asked Kagome, as she huffed. "And really, are females the only ones attracted to you?"

"W-what?" stuttered Youko, who was giving Kagome a weird look.

"Like for example..." trailed Kagome.

"Yes?" asked an exasperated Youko.

"Do you have any dead lovers come back to life?"

"No, I do not have a zombie love." replied Youko, who was trying not to twitch. "I don't have any lovers that are dead for that matter."

"Ha. So you have a lot of other lovers. Two-timer. Should've expected as much from a youkai." cut in Kagome.

"Jealous?" asked Youko.

"In your dreams." retorted Kagome.

"Don't worry; I never got too far with the other females. But you're going to be a whole different story." finished Youko.

"I didn't ask you that question." blushed Kagome, as she turned around, so Youko wouldn't be able to see the blush. "Do you have any male lovers?"

crash

"Huh? Youko, are you all right?" asked Kagome, as she looked behind her. Youko wasn't there. Kagome looked to the floor and there was Youko.

"What kind of question was that?" demanded Youko.

"Just making sure your straight, is all." replied Kagome. "I don't want someone who is gay."

"You rather have someone who is emotionless and cold?" asked Youko.

"Not that gay...the other one! The one where a guy likes a guy." explained Kagome, remembering Youko didn't know the other meaning for gay.

"Kagome, I, Youko Kurama, can assure you... I love you only. Not some zombie, other female, and most definitely not another guy." stated Youko.

"That's all nice and stuff, but you're still a fox." replied Kagome.

"You have something against my species?" asked Youko.

"No." replied Kagome hurriedly. "Just foxes aren't that trustworthy. I still can't believe your words." Youko growled in annoyance.

"KURONUE!" called Youko.

"What?" asked Kuronue, as he rubbed his ears. "Did you have to shriek like Kagome?"

"Shriek?" repeated Kagome, as she jumped off from the bed. "I. DO. NOT. SHRIEK! I yell!"

"Never mind." replied Kuronue, as he pushed Kagome into Youko's lap, who quickly held her in place with an embrace. "What is it you want?"

"Tell the dense one here..."started Youko, earning a growl from Kagome. "That my love for her is real and it's no joke."

"I can't do that." replied Kuronue. "How am I suppose to know if your taking this one seriously. Can you actually settle down a bit to take a mate?"

"See?" snorted Kagome. "Not even your best friend can promise for you. So, I cannot believe you."

"What am I suppose to do?" growled Youko. "Turn into a bat youkai?"

"Na, I don't like bats. They're creepy." replied Kagome, as Kuronue glared at Kagome.

"And please tell me, why are you hanging around me then?" asked Kuronue.

"Huh?" asked Kagome.

"Kuronue is a bat demon." replied Youko, as he smirked. "And I thought you were intelligent. I knew I couldn't expect much from a human."

"Hey! I resent that! Humans are a very...um...unique species!" defended Kagome.

"Plus weak, physically and mentally." added Youko. "Unlike foxes."

"But...but...argh! Never mind!" snorted Kagome, as she turned away, refusing to admit defeat.

"Hello?" murmured Kuronue. "Aren't we forgetting someone?"

silence

Kagome was glaring at the wall. Youko was waiting for Kagome to admit that foxes were better than humans. Kuronue was trying to get both their attention.

slam

Kuronue had left.

silence

Kagome shifted.

silence

"Fine. Fine." stated Kagome. "There is nothing wrong with foxes, other than the fact that they steal, lie, and cheat on girls."

"What is that suppose to mean?" asked Youko, as he gave Kagome his full attention again. "How can a female fox cheat on a girl?"

"You know what I mean! I was implying to you males! But female foxes seduce men!"

"And your race doesn't?" snorted Youko. "Who in your race, can you say, never told a lie, stolen something, or looked at the opposite sex lustfully?"

"Argh." growled Kagome. "I'm not going to waste my time talking to you. I, still need to find a way back home." Youko angrily left Kagome's room, going in search of Kuronue.

Kagome huffed angrily as Youko left. "How did we end up so mad at each other?" murmured Kagome, after just staring into space for an hour. "Oh yea, it all started with me discriminating foxes...maybe, I should apologize?"

Kagome sighed once again, as she rubbed her head, feeling a headache coming up. "What am I suppose to do with a situation like this? Did Youko really mean what he said? If so, am I ready to love again? Do I even love Youko? Or am I just feeling lust? Lust...ew...me...no way, right?"

"But then, why do I keep...mind out of the gutter." Kagome replied to herself.

"But if it wasn't lust, then it's love?" Kagome asked the wall.

"No. I'll only end up getting hurt in the process again." Kagome replied, when the wall made no signs of answering.

"But what if my decision I made wavers under Youko's constant proclamation of love?"

Kagome asked once again.

"Then...I'll just have to get home soon. Like, right now!" stated Kagome firmly, as she stood up from her bed.

"I don't think she took to your love for her very well." stated Kuronue.

"Your telling me." replied Youko. "But why doesn't she want me? What's wrong with me? I'm perfect. I doubt she'd find anybody better than me."

"Never mind, your way to full of yourself. Anyway, maybe you should check up on her." murmured Kuronue. "She has been talking to herself for almost an hour now. That...isn't healthy."

"I'm so frustrated." muttered Kagome. "Maybe I should 'sit' down. 'Sitting usually helps calm the nerves. Oh, who am I kidding? Just 'sitting here won't solve a thing. I still conclude this as Inuyasha's fault. So, even though, I'm not sure if you'll feel this, but...SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!"

Kuronue had just opened Kagome's door, when she yelled sit. Kuronue fell to the ground.

"Oops. Sorry Kuronue." murmured Kagome. "You don't happen to have prayer beads on you, right?"

"No." replied Kuronue.

"Then, why did you sit?"

"I was just surprised." replied Kuronue, hiding his embarrassment.

"Oh." replied Kagome.

In Feudal Japan

Kouga was having a cussing contest with Inuyasha. "How could you do that!" yelled Kouga. "What happened to Kagome?"

"The bitch left." growled Inuyasha, as he held Kikyou close to him.

"For that zombie!" yelled Kouga.

"Who you calling a zombie?" defended Inuyasha, as he drew Tetsusaiga. "I'm gonna kick your ass, wolf-breath."

Inuyasha charged at Kouga, and the two fought. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kikyou watched from the sidelines. The battle went on for half an hour, when Inuyasha was going to make the final blow with the kaze no kizu...

Kouga growled, as Sango and Miroku tried to stop Inuyasha. They weren't going to make it in time...Inuyasha brought down his infamous sword.

Nothing happened. When the dust cleared, everyone found Inuyasha is a crater. Followed by crashing another five feet deeper. Making it a 6-feet deep Inuyasha grave. (Kagome said sit 6 times, making it 6 feet.) "Miroku, we might need a new epitaph." stated Shippo.

"Couldn't we use the last one?" asked Miroku, as he peered into the hole.
