Love's Labour Lost Chapter 23:
(Last time)
Kagome sensing the pain in the Naoki's heart because of Inuyasha's outburst earlier, that Kagome could envision clearly had only one thing to say.
"SIT BOY!"
Inuyasha winced as he heard the incantation yelled, rather angrily, expecting the pain to come. After a moment of Inuyasha wincing and the group just staring at the two of them: Kagome standing there pointing at Inuyasha, and Inuyasha standing eyes clamped shut wincing, the reality of the situation dawned with Inuyasha
"HA!" Inuyasha proclaimed pointing at Kagome "You destroyed the rosary, you can't sit me anymore!"
As Inuyasha began relishing in his freedom, Hirakotsu came slamming down upon his shoulders, sending him flying down into the dirt, landing in a similar fashion that the rosary would have left him in.
"Will that do?" Sango asked cheerily to Kagome as she walked over and embraced her friend before pulling away to look her over.
"Yes, he needed that. Sango what are you doing?"
"Are you sure you're alright?"
"I'm fine, we have a lot of talking to do and I have a feeling that you, Naoki, and I will become very close friends"
As soon as Kagome parted from Sango, Kouga had latched on to her hands and was once again declaring his love.
"Kagome, my love. No one shall harm you again." Kouga was interrupted and thrown away by: a little fuzz-ball by the name of Shippo wailing "KAGOME!". as he launched himself at Kagome's shocked form
"Shippo! I'm fine, don't worry. Hey I know. Rin! Could you come here?" Kagome called from beyond the garden entrance.
The small timid girl emerged and began skipping towards Kagome.
"Rin, this is Shippo. Shippo, this is Rin. I have a feeling you two will get along nicely."
"Hi there Shippo, you're cute!" Rin giggled out.
"H-Hi!" Shippo stuttered out.
"Rin why don't you go take Shippo to play. We'll call you for dinner" Kagome suggested.
"Okay! Come on Shippo" Rin decided excitedly as she grabbed Shippo's hand and began dragging him away.
"Oh Rin, why don't you introduce him to Jaken?" Kagome added as they left, sending a wink towards Rin.
"Yay!" and with that, the two were long gone.
"Kagome, there is much we must discuss" Naoki commented, turning towards Kagome and Sango, "Perhaps a bath?"
"Ahhhhh that sounds great" Sango purred.
"Yes, I agree" Kagome started, "but I believe I must stop them before they kill each other" Kagome added as she motioned towards Inuyasha, Sesshomaru and Kouga who were currently arguing over her.
"Guys? ... Guys? ... GUYS!" Kagome yelled, desperately trying to get their attention. As they boys continued fighting Kagome began fuming. Stalking over to her bow and quiver she prepared an arrow and took aim.
As son as the guys separated from each other for an instant, the arrow flew between them, drawing their attention to Kagome.
"Hey Kagome, what's up?" Inuyasha asked, oblivious.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Kagome yelled back, "I AM NOT YOURS TO FIGHT OVER." She continued, earning a smirk from Sesshomaru and Kouga. "AND WHAT ARE THE TWO OF YOU LAUGHING AT!" She asked, turning towards them, knocking the smirks off their faces. "Kouga, did you forget about Ayame! Ya know, the girl you said you'd marry and is in love with you! Inuyasha, did you forget that you chose Kikyo over me not to long ago. And Sesshomaru, Get over yourself!"
The three men were taken aback as Kagome took a deep breath, "Play nice now," she called as she began to walk away, but paused to call back "DON'T YOU DARE LET ME FIND A SCRATCH ON ANY OF YOU!" Kagome then walked up to a giggling Naoki and Sango, "So, a bath?" She asked, turning towards Kirara to add "and some fish for Kirara"
"Mew!"
"What? What are you two laughing at!" Kagome begged the two hysterical girls who were holding their sides and pointing behind them.
Sesshomaru's normally stoic face was still in shock, while his body was braced from her vocal assault.
Inuyasha was lying on the ground, trying to hide behind a boulder, eyes poking over.
And Kouga was braced back, scratching his head in confusion.
All three were frozen in place as Miroku jumped between the three waving his hands in their faces trying to get their attention.
Kagome began laughing as well as she picked up Kirara, who settled on her shoulder and guided her two friends off to the bath house.
"Wh-What did you do to her?" Inuyasha stuttered out.
"I didn't do THAT, she was perfectly peaceful here. If she has that side in her I'll have to be on my best behavior now." Sesshomaru responded, all three coming out of their trance.
"Please do not fight again" Miroku pleaded "Kagome AND Sango would kill me ifyou killed each other"
"Kagome wishes us to not fight over her, so we shall not" Sesshomaru stated, turning towards Kouga and Miroku, "Monk, Wolf, make yourselves at home. My servants will provide any need. Oh and Monk, keep your hands to themselves, your reputation proceeds you and all my servants have been trained well."
Sesshomaru began to walk off, pausing to turn and address Inuyasha "Come little brother, we have much to discuss" and with that the two were gone.
"Kouga, did Sesshomaru just say little brother without mocking Inuyasha?" Miroku asked
"I think he did. Perhaps Naoki was right. There is a lot we don't understand. Hey Monk, want to go get some food?"
"Mmmm, sounds good to me!" They two agreed as the final individuals left the garden.
"So, Murai failed. Pathetic. I will have to do better next time" Naraku mused as he began to plot a new scheme.
