Sango trudged out of the cabin slowly locking the door behind her as she placed her bag on the step. She smirked widely as she watched Miroku cringe while taking his seat in the car.
"Aww poor Miroku do you have a sore butt?" Snickered out Kagome watching him move slightly to find a comfortable spot. "Sango I think we damaged the letch. He's got a bruise on his ass that by the way he is moving must be sore."
"And here I thought you were trying to be nice to me for once." He sniffled with a mock pout. "Iie it doesn't hurt that much… just my tale bone."
"He'll live… He's a tough boy. Aren't you honey?" Cooed Sango from behind the car as she placed her bag in the trunk.
"Damn straight." 'If only my butt didn't hurt so much…'
"Oh hey guys did you notice that the for sale sign was missing from the Henderson's house when we left? Wonder if that meant who ever bought the place was moving in this weekend."
"Could be Kags, could be. Hey maybe it'll be some hot guy and you'll finally get yourself another date. One that isn't as possessive as Koga and as boring as Hojo. You really need a boyfriend again Kagome and if I have to play matchmaker so be it."
"Sango all the other guys you've hooked me up were horny little creatures I could hardly call human. I've never seen so many sex-craving guys as I did in that one week. Is it just me or are you a magnet for that kind of person?"
"What can we say Kagome Sango is irresistible of course all the smart men would be crazy over her. But they'd also be smart to keep their hands off." Miroku chided in. "No body but me is allowed to grope her."
"Damn pervert."
"INUYASHA!"
"What?"
"I'm bored! Can't we go do something?" Cried out Shippo his shrill voice making InuYasha's left eye twitch out of annoyance.
"Did you finish unpacking the stuff from your room yet?" He asked raising a brow to look at the small red head.
"Erm… in a way."
"I already told you we aren't going anywhere until you and I at least get some things unpacked. Once you finish getting all your clothes put away come see me okay?"
"Aww. Ano… Do I have to?" He whined out. InuYasha twitched at the pitch of the voice.
"Yes now go! Before I make you sleep outside." He growled making the Kitsune shriek and take off towards his room. 'Ah finally no more annoying pleas about boredom…' InuYasha looked around the kitchen and smiled at his handy work all items were finally in place. He had long sense finished unpacking stuff for his room and filled the small closet in the hall with bedding supplies and other things. Now it was just a matter of getting rid of all the empty boxes that resided in the house. Most already folded into a nice flat pile, but others were still fully put together. Crinkling his nose up he set back to work to finish getting the boxes out of the way.
"Well now that that's done… HEY RUNT YOU DONE YET?" 'Cause now I'm bored.'
"Almost I just gotta put this away… Okay done." Shippo chirped and slid down the rail to InuYasha. "Now can we go? Maybe to the park or to get an ice cream? I'm hungry."
"When are you not hungry? Yes we can go to the park if they have an ice cream stand there I'll get you one. But I'm not going to get myself lost just to find you some ice cream alright?" Shippo nodded and took off for the door. Humming happily to himself as he jumped up effortlessly to the handle and pulling the door open. He cried out in surprise at what he found on the other side. A woman of about 50 or so stood face to face with the young Kitsune who was still hanging onto the door. He surpassed the urge to scream out in terror at the awful sight before him. InuYasha walked up to the door and bit his lip as to not make a snide remark. 'Kami she's even worse then the lady that lived next door to us before. She must be ancient.' "Uh hey there. Can we help you?"
"Oh now aren't you a little cutie." She cooed at Shippo who was now placed in the protective place of InuYasha's shoulder. The red head blinked cringing at the raspy voice. For being only 50 she sure did seem like she was older then the oldest of youkai (no it isn't Kaede). The woman then looked at InuYasha and smiled. "And boy oh boy don't we have a looker here." She added with a rather crooked grin as she eyed InuYasha making him slink back a bit. "Well then I just came by to welcome you to the neighborhood and to ask if you needed anything. If you do happen to need anything feel free to come on over. I live just next door. Mind if I come in?"
"Well we were just…" The woman pushed past him eyeing the house.
"My the Henderson's certainly did take good care of their house. I'm sure you'll do the same. We don't need any troublemakers on this street you know. I don't take kindly to partiers and such. Its bad enough the people across the street have little bashes once a year on new years. They trouble me boy just terrible. Always going away on the weekend who knows what kind of things their getting into. Probably off somewhere doing drugs and getting together with other people to have sex parties. Young ones these days…. Nothings quite the same as it was when I was young." InuYasha blinked at her and scoffed slightly. 'Yeah right ya old hag. Sure that's what they do. This is just great…. Now we have a quiet freak living next door to us. I thought Ming Lyn was bad…' He thought to himself while trying his best not to say anything rude. No need to get on her bad side now.
"Umm ma'am? We were kind of getting ready to head out. I don't mean to be rude or anything but could you… leave?" He asked in the sweetest voice he could.
"Oh… oh yes dear sorry to be a burden to you. I'll come back some other time when it's more convenient." InuYasha cringed at the thought as she left the house and hobbled on to her home. With a sigh of relief InuYasha and Shippo headed out the door hoping to not get ambushed by anyone else.
"Ah ha finally home." Cooed Kagome as she raced out of the car and into the house. She didn't much care for the drive anymore after the accident but couldn't keep from going to the cabin. Stifling a yawn she dropped her things into her room and went into the kitchen to grab a bite to eat. Her eyes traveled to the large window that faced the street. Her eyes falling on the human wrinkle, as she liked to call her as she got ready to knock on the door of the Henderson's old place. She smirked at the surprised look on the small boy's face as he opened the door. 'She probably scared the shit right out of him. Anyone that opens a door to find that on the other side is bound to have nightmares about it later.' She thought with a laugh. Taking a bite out of her apple she watched in amusement as she barged into the house catching a glimpse of silvery white hair before it backed out of sight. 'I pity them… truly pity them.'
"Hey Kagome what are you watching?" Asked Sango coming up to her friend.
"Oh the new people are being greeted by the human wrinkle."
"Oh no. I feel sorry for them. She'll probably try and tell them about everyone and everything on the street." She replied then looked at Kagome. "Did you see anyone that lived there?"
"Not really just some kid. He was kawaii though. He looked like a youkai. Kind of like a squirrel" She chirped then took another bite almost dropping it in surprise as to how short lived her stay was. "That didn't last long." She added… "No one has ever managed to make her leave that quick. If they are lucky she will end up disliking them like she does with us."
"Key word there Kagome…"
"If!" They said in unison before turning their attention back to the house. She watched as the red headed child took off out of the house soon to be followed by another. Kagome choked and dropped her apple as she watched the second occupant walk out. Her face draining of color as she watched him slide out and shut the door. Sango's chin dropped as she to saw him. Either their minds were playing tricks on them or they had just seen a ghost from long ago, appearing alive and well. But... that wasn't possible was it?
Alright here we go chapter 4. Now starts the slowness of updfating. It's been so long sinse I've worked on this story I've been cursed with a major writers block.
