Mission Impossible: The Switcheroo

Chapter 3: Why Hello, brother...

Inuyasha tore through the forest, the wind blowing through his hair. It was like nothing he never felt before. He took a rather large whiff from the air, catching bits of what use to be his scent, but it seemed to be mingled with bits of soil, or dirt as well...

"Kami!" Inuyasha shouted, his mad dash interrupted when he fell into what seemed like...A Crater?! He smirked, seeing as Sesshomaru had already met Kagome. The Ex-Youkai was curled up at the far end of his 'den', his legs close to his chest, and his breathing heavy. "It appears that you have already met Kagome..." Inuyasha sneered to the sleeping youkai.

Sesshomaru woke as soon as he heard his, Er... Inuyasha's voice. "What do you want now?..." Sesshomaru grumbled, dog ears twitching constantly at the intruder's voice. He, obviously, wasn't in the mood to get into a stupid cat fight with his imbecile brother... Half Brother.

Inuyasha smirked, his expression mischievous and sly. "Nothing..." He answered simply avoiding the fact he needed assistance to take care of Sesshomaru's three companions.

Sesshomaru stretched his limbs, muttering, "Why didn't you take Ah and Un here?... It would have been a lot faster..." Sesshomaru still raised a brow, no matter which body he was in.

"Er..." Inuyasha stuttered, not believing he hadn't thought of that yet. "I suppose we now have to travel together, eh?... To keep track of what the other is doing to our bodies..."

"That's the first logical suggestion you have made in your life. Very well, yet I am only doing this because of my reputation..." Sesshomaru snapped, in a voice that made anyone he wanted quiver in fear.

"Whatever..." Inuyasha said, dragging Sesshomaru out of his crater. And off they went to retrieve Rin and the others...


"Sesshomaru-sama, why is dog man traveling with us?..." Rin asked Inuyasha reluctantly, starting to tick off Sesshomaru, but he could never stay mad at her... (A/N. Can't you just see the irony dripping out of the scene?...)

Inuyasha muffled a silent laugh, answering, "Because I require his services," the word ticking off Sesshomaru any further, "And his name is Inuyasha..." This really set off Sesshomaru. The 'youkai' whacked Inuyasha on the head, glaring daggers at his brother.

"Sesshomaru-sama, Jakken got lost somewhere again..." Rin chirped again, finally remembering something.

"That's nice Rin..." Inuyasha said, pulling viciously on Sesshomaru's dog ears. He growled from the back of his throat, as Sesshomaru's snarl, which sounded half like a whimper because of hanyou status, emitted as soon as he tried to get Inuyasha's firm grasp on Sesshomaru's ears off...

Meanwhile...

"Okay... What pray tell is happening to those two? ..." Miroku asked, awestruck alike the other two when he saw the brother's begin their constant bickering.

"I don't know anymore..." Sango gasped, staring wide eyed at the sight. (A/N. And can't you just imagine the sight?...)

"Yeah, it's like they switched personalities or something, but we all know that isn't possible, right?..." Kagome added.

"Right." The monk and exterminator agreed, not thinking of any other explanations of the brother's strange behaviors.


"Get your damn hands off of me!!!" Sesshomaru shouted, grasping Inuyasha's wrists harder and harder, finally removing the hanyou's grubby hands off of his ears.

"Sesshomaru-sama? ... Are you... Okay?" Rin asked, dipping her head to one side.

"Yeah... Inuyasha, you've been acting pretty weird lately too..." Kagome said, entering the scene.

"Yes, Inuyasha, what is the matter with you?" Sango said, following her good friend, to the hanyou and severely embarrassed ex-youkai.

"It isn't... Normal for you to be with Sesshomaru... Not to mention illogical..." Miroku chimed in, glaring daggers at Sesshomaru for smashing into his skull earlier in the day.

"Er...." The two brother's muttered in unison. "We-""I-""He-""That is-"

And they each stumbled and stuttered over each other's words, not, making any sense at all. Until finally, Inuyasha had to search through Sesshomaru's memory bank for a flaw... "I require my brother's assistance."

"But what for? It isn't like you to go searching for Inuyasha...." Sango said, scratching her head.

"Yeah, it's usually the other way around." Kagome chimed in.

"That is none of your concerns, what I require for him to perform." Inuyasha said smugly, dragging Sesshomaru away as the trio, a dragon, and Rin followed along.

"That was too close for comfort..." Inuyasha sighed, sweat dropping as he trudged along the dirt path.

"You're telling me..." Sesshomaru muttered, trying to wash out the memory.

To Be Continued...
