Author's note: Sorry for the long update. I was stuck on the part of Kagome's training. By the way, this chapter might be a little different. You'll know what I mean when we get there. Anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter.
Reviews!
Jamie: Actually, Sesshy is really annoyed at being dragged along by Rin. I just love making him do fun stuff that he really hates. Again, thanks for the corrections. Hopefully, this chapter will have none. And about the bitch and bastard, if you really don't want to read about them, I'd warn you to skip the first part. Have fun!
jaryjosephwantsapplejuicenow: Um... make them into a couple? I was really planning on one of them to die. Hm... I'll think about it. Thanks for the idea!
sweetypie-brat: Yup, funnel cakes are delicious.
And thanks to Forever Evil for being my seventieth reviewer! Thanks.
Hot Dogs
Kikyo sat on Naraku's office desk and crossed her legs. She was wearing really short shorts and had only a bra on, underneath a sweater. Kikyo sat there, thinking for a second and pulled her sweater down a little bit more. There, that should do it.
Kikyo shifted to one side and glanced at her wrist watch irritably. She had told Naraku to meet her here at two in the morning, but it was now two fifteen! Glaring at the door, Kikyo was surprised when it actually opened.
Naraku stepped inside and closed the door with a slam. He glanced up and looked her over, raising his eyeborws. Fresh blood could be seen on his jacket. Suddenly, he seemed to remember that he was supposed to meet her here.
"What do you want?"
"A deal."
He sat down in his chair behind the table on which Kikyo sat. Kikyo stifled the urge to puke. The stench of blood was overwhelming and nobody liked to see greasy hair. Despite all that Kikyo leaned in closer to him, using a seductive voice.
"I want you to help me kill someone."
He raised his eyebrows yet agian. Killing soemone was defintiely in his area. He looked about to accept but then glared at her with viciouness.
"And what will I get?"
Kikyo gulped and after minutes of silence, took a go at it. "You can have me."
He laughed. "I already have you working for me. Or do you mean...?"
Kikyo nodded, with a hint of hesitation. He glanced at her, amused. "Why don't you just kill this someone by yourself?"
Kiyko's eye narrowed. The truth? Oh I don't want to kill her by myself because InuYasha will surely know it was me and then there will never be hope of us being together... ever. However, if Naraku kills her... then InuYasha will know I'm innocent, to an extent.
All the while she was thinking, Naraku was playing with her zipper. (A/N: The sweater zipper. Kikyo's short shorts doesn't have any zipper. I think it's called pull ups? I don't know, something like that.) Kikyo was snapped out of her daze when Naraku began pulling the zipper down, exposing her bare skin. She brushed his hand away.
"So, do we have a deal?"
Naraku gave a harsh laugh. "I will do it on two terms. First: You also have to help me with one of my recent plans. And two: Who's the lucky victim?"
Kikyo answered without hesitation. "Kagome Higurashi."
InuYasha opened the door to the dojo and Kagome looked around, impressed once again. It had about a dozen weights and three punchbags. It was large and bare in the middle, where a mat was set.
InuYasha and Kagome went to the middle of the mat. InuYasha tunred his back to her. "Stay here."
Kagome shrugged while InuYasha went to a small drawer in the corner of the dojo. He pulled out two karate uniforms with one white belt and one black belt. She frowned as InuYasha handed her the one with the white belt.
"Why did you get the black one?"
InuYasha smiled evilly at her. "Because I've trained all my life." He pointed to a door at the far end of the room. "Change there."
Kagome scowled as she entered the changing room and looked into the mirror. Several white and black headbands told her that Sango had trained here. Kagome shrugged again and changed. Finally done, Kagome yanked on a white headband and opened the door.
InuYasha was warming up with a few kicks and lunges. Then he got into a very complicated series of kicks and punches. Kagome gaped, as usual. She walked over to him.
"Lets get this over with, wench."
"Fine with me, mutt boy."
Flashback
There was a slight knock on Rin's door and Rin groaned. "Open the door Kagome."
Kagome frowned and shook her head. "Not uh. You're closer to the door."
Rin pouted, and then sighed, as she got up and opened the door. Rin raised her eyebrows at the sight of a maid. The maid uncertainly looked past Rin and to Kagome.
"Lord Sesshomaru needs your presence in the living room."
"The living room?"
Rin brightened. "I can show you."
The maid shook her head. "Lord Sesshomaru told me to take care of you, Rin. Koga's here to take Kagome to the living room."
"Well, where are we going?"
"Um... how about the mini park in the backyard?"
Rin squealed and hugged Kagome good-bye and then they were gone, leaving a dumbstruck Kagome behind. Koga appeared in front of Rin's door and smiled. "Come on, let's go."
End Flashback
InuYasha came closer to Kagome and stepped behind her, making her stiffen as he got too close for comfort. His breath was warm against her neck and he wrapped his arms around her... only to fix her position.
"Kagome, loosen up. Bend your knees, only slightly, and relax."
"I'll relax if..." Kagome trailed off. They had been going for five minutes in silence, with InuYasha correcting her once or twice. Kagome continued in her head: if you get away from me! It's already hard enough with the moves. But... when you get close...
Kagome had to admit. His body against hers felt good.
"Alright, ready Kagome? Get ready to block when I kick."
Kagome raised her arms.
Flashback
Kagome was trailing along behind a chatting Koga. He finally stopped outside a grand door and clicked off his cell phone.
"Who was that?"
He blushed. "Ayame."
Kagome couldn't help but smile. "Aw... that's so sweet!"
He blushed even more and opened the door. Kagome opened her mouth again to embarrass him more, but he had already pushed her through the door. Kagome smiled as a red in the face Koga finally closed the door. Kagome turned around and gaped.
The room was huge! The carpet was a deep red, outlined in gold. In the middle of the room was a medium sized coffee table and it was surrounded on all sides by several black sofas. Kagome walked over to the sofas and touched it's leather surface.
Two TVs stood facing each other. They were across from each other and they took up an entire wall, each.
Kagome gaped at it for a few more minutes and jumped onto the sofa. Sinking into the cushiony depths, Kagome closed her eyes sleepily.
"Having fun?"
End Flashback
InuYasha kicked her, hard. Kagome flew across the room, and remembered at the last moment to loosen her muscles. She landed unceremoniously in a heap. However, Kagome jumped up again, swinging her hair out of the way.
"Nice fall."
"Thanks."
Kagome and InuYasha got into position again. He glanced at her tired expression and her sloppy posture. Sighing, he suddenly felt himself grow slightly weary.
"Want a break?"
"What? But you just said.. when we came in here... there will be no breaks. Only hard work and much sweating."
InuYasha nodded, remembering. So what? He changed his mind. Kagome was a faster learner than he expected. Especially for a girl. He looked at her again, where she was sitting in a heap on the mat. A smile crept to his lips.
"Kagome, want to go grab some lunch?"
She smiled. He took that as a yes.
Flashback
Sango plopped down next to Kagome, and Miroku next to her. Kagome shrugged. "I'm fine. Just meeting Sesshomaru here."
Sango nodded. "I wonder what he's going to say to us."
She was cut off as Lord Sesshomaru entered. He jumped onto the sofa and faced them all. Kagome, Sango, and Miroku looked at him as he stared back. Finally Lord Sesshomaru cleared his throat.
"Kagome, would you like to learnt he basics of Jujitsu, Karate, and kung-fu?"
Kagome blinked. "Um... sure?"
"Great." At this he turned to Sango and Miroku. He frowned.
"Where's InuYasha?"
They all shrugged. It was like InuYasha to be late. Sango spoke up, "I know what you're thinking, and no, I can not train Kagome. I have to many paperwork."
Lord Sesshomaru scowled. Miroku's eyes glinted.
"I'll train her..."
Sango's temple twitched. She pinched him really hard. "Ow, ow, ow! I mean, I'm busy, too!"
They sat in silence and thought this out. A door opened and closed. Sesshomaru looked up and saw InuYasha, and a grin appeared on his face. InuYasha backed off at Sesshomaru's smile and sweat dropped and then frowned as he realized that Sango and Miroku were smiling at him, too.
He pointed to Sesshomaru. "Ok, you, never, ever, smile again. Got it?" Sesshomaru shrugged and then scowled.
"What's wrong with my smile?"
Everyone shivered at the thought of him doing anything even close to smiling again. They were interrupted as InuYasha pointed to Sango and Miroku.
"And you two, why are you smiling?"
They shrugged and smiled some more.
End Flashback
InuYasha shivered again at the thought of Sesshomaru's smile. He had never, ever, seen Sesshomaru smile at anyone else, expect for Rin. He turned around to Kagome, with her hair blowing, and yelled back, as he hit a pothole.
"Remind me to kick your ass the next time you convince me to ride a bike to the hot dog stand."
Kagome grinned and tightened her arms around his waist. This squeezed another comment from him.
"Can't... breath..."
They swerved dangerously to one side and Kagome let out a yelp of laughter. InuYasha was as good with driving cars as he was with driving bikes. She almost fell as he turned a curve.
Kagome muttered under her breath, "I'm going to be driving us home..."
InuYasha heard her, "What's wrong with my riding?"
Kagome screamed as he skidded off of the pavement and out into he road. They nearly hit a car.
"Wow! Wench, wasn't that cool?"
Kagome scowled and tickled him. Bad idea. He swerved dangerously and he hit the edge of the sidewalk. They fell onto the grass. (A/N: Convenient, eh? So anyways, they crossed the road to the other side and fell onto the grass. Just wanted to make that clear. )
"Idiot! You could've gotten us killed!"
"Excuse me? But who was tickling who?"
Kagome blushed and was about to pull herself off of the ground when InuYasha laid down on her.
"Oomph! Get off of me!"
"No, not until you say sorry."
Kagome tried pushing him off but didn't succeed.
"Fine, you win. Sorry, now get off!"
He stood up and brushed himself off. Kagome stood up, also, and blushed. Now that he was off of her, she remembered the heat of his body against hers...
"You, Kags, the hot dog stand is over there!"
Kagome looked over and nodded, as she smiled. She pulled the bike up from he ground and began walking with InuYasha walking next to her. Screw walking, I'll just ride the bike.
Kagome jumped onto the bike and began riding and InuYasha caught up to her easily, running. Kagome suddenly had a wicked idea. Swerving smoothly, it looked like she was about to tread on his feet and he fell flat on his butt. Then, a laughing Kagome took off.
"Get your ass back here, you wench!"
Kagome just laughed again and began peddling harder as she saw him running to catch up.
"When I get you, you are going to be so dead!"
Kagome ignored him and skidded to a halt just right next to the hot dog stand.
"Two hot dogs, please. Yes, with everything on it. Two bucks? Oh, thank you!"
All the while this was going on, a tired, disheveled, and cursing boy ran put to Kagome. He gripped her waist in a firm lock. Kagome gave a cry and he ducked as she delivered a kick to the side of the boy's head.
"Dude, it's me! InuYasha."
"Whoops, sorry. You shouldn't scare me like that."
He scowled at her. "Maybe you have learned something from me these past few days." Kagome grinned innocently.
Suddenly the hot dog man gave them the two hot dogs. Kagome took it and walked tot he nearest bench. They sat down and ate in compatible silence. When they finished they continued to sit there, dreading the ride home.
InuYasha sighed at last as he stood up. "We should get home now."
Kagome nodded. "Only this time, I drive."
Ending Note: How do you like it? This is the short summary of the whole chapter: Kikyo and Naraku, planning to kill Kagome, InuYasha nod Kagome, training. Kagome having a few flashbacks of the days before and how she had gotten into this predicament. And don't ask me how the hot dogs came into with everything. The idea just came to me. Well, review, please!
