DISCLAIMER: I don't own Inuyasha, nor did I make up the seven deadly sins. Fear, for I am uncreative...

Chapter Two- The Proud and Punished: Pride, the First Deadly Sin

"InuYasha, what do you think you're doing? Come down here, I found the seven deadly sins or whatever we're supossed to face."

"Really?" InuYasha said with scourn. Why did she find it first? I can do much better than her... Of course, little to InuYasha's knowledge, the first sin was already dawning apon him. "The first deadly sin: Pride. Pride is the belief that one person can do much better then others, for he believes too much in himself. Well, InuYasha, seems like you broke that a long time ago." Kagome snickered, pride setting on her too.

"What did you say bitch?" InuYasha yelled, and jumped from his sitting spot in a nearby tree.

"What? You heard me, I said you have way to much pride inyourself already. Because of your temper, we'll most likely never be together!"

InuYasha went up to Kagome and violently grabbed her arms, his nails digging into her skin, his temper rising. Blood gently ran down Kagome's arms and onto InuYasha's hands.

"InuYasha! Oswari!" Kagome cried. But instead of his falling by himself, Kagome fell with him, longer cuts appearing down her arms. "InuYasha, you bastard!" Kagome cried, tears streaking down her face. "I knew I could do this by myself, why did I even ever come down the well?"

"Kagome..." InuYasha said more thoughtfully. He ran up to the crying girl and hugged her, his pride going away. "Haruko is putting these sins on us, to turn us away from each other. We've been though pride, and it looks like we've been punished for it too..." when he was done, InuYasha was free of any pride in him. The same went for Kagome. "We'll get through these Kagome, we will..."

Fin.
