Chapter 8: Staying at Kagome's

Kagome sat relaxing in her bathtub, enjoying a hot bath. It's been so long since I've had a hot bath. She thought with a relaxing sigh. But as she lay in the warmth of the water, she heard voices yelling.

"I said give it to me!"

"What's wrong short stuff? Can't reach?"

"Brother, let me help."

"No! This is my fight!"

"Boys! Please stop this."

"Ack! He bit me!"

Kagome only shook her head and floated down to eye level with the water. It's like to five year olds. His brother is more mature than him. And Inuyasha is to jealous for his own good. Kagome thought, trying to block out the fight downstairs.

"Kagome, could you come down here for a minute dear?" Her mother asked from downstairs. "Coming." she yelled down, climbing out of the tub. They are so getting yelled at for making me get out of the bathtub! Kagome thought with anger.

As Kagome came down the stairs, she saw her mother waiting for her. Her hair was falling out of its usually neat bun and she had a tear on her apron. "Are you okay mom?" Kagome asked. "Yes. It's not different from when you and Souta were little." She said with a tired smile.

Kagome walked past her and went into the living room to a strange site. Inuyasha was hanging from the ceiling fan dangling a pocket watch, while Ed was jumping up, trying to grab it. Ed's brother was standing in the corner, watching with embarrassment. "Inuyasha! Ed!" Kagome yelled. Both looked at her, but did not stop fighting each other off.

"Inuyasha, SIT!" She yelled, causing him to be pulled off the ceiling fan and land on the floor. Ed laughed at him, but Kagome grabbed a broom that was leaning against the wall and smacked him upside the head, sending him to the floor.

She then let the broom fall to the floor and walked over to Inuyasha. She then pried the pocket watch from his tight fist and said, "Inuyasha, Ed is eleven and your like seventy something. Act more mature." With that she walked over to Al and handed it to him. "But this is Brothers." He told her. "If they are going to fight over it, they don't need to have it." She told him simply. And with that she walked up stairs to study for the test the next day.

Inuyasha now sat on the couch glaring at the blonde boy in front of him on the next couch. "I hate you." he told him. "And I you." He answered back, "so, who wants to watch some TV?" Mrs. Higurashi said, turning on the TV. But their attention did not switch to the TV.

"Al, give me my watch please." Ed told his brother that sat next to him. But he did not receive a watch. "Al, did you not hear me?" Ed asked, turning to his brother. But Al stayed silent. "Hand me my watch." He said. Al looked at him and shook his head. "What?" Ed yelled. "Mrs. Kagome said that you don't need it if your going to fight over it and has trusted me with it. So...no." He told him.

Ed could only stare at his brother. "But...its mine." he said. "Sorry brother." He told him, getting up and leaving the room. "Ha! You don't get your stupid shiny thing!" Inuyasha laughed. "Shut up!" Ed yelled, getting to his feet. "Make me!" Inuyasha yelled, also getting to his feet.

Ed went to punch Inuyasha in the face, but Inuyasha dodged it and grabbed his wrist, throwing him through the wall and into the backyard.

Inuyasha then kicked him into a group of trees. But Ed got to his feet and kicked Inuyasha back ward, tearing though a flower garden.

Inuyasha got up and pulled out his Tetsuiaga and yelled, "Wind scar!" Ed dodged the attack, leaving trees to be ripped out of the ground.

The two stood panting, glaring at each other. "INUYASHA!ED!" Kagome screamed at the top of her lungs. The two turned and a sudden fear fell over them as she marched over.

She glared at them both as the cowered under her stare. She quickly grabbed Ed by the collar of his trench coat and dragged him over to Inuyasha. "Hold his collar!" She yelled. Inuyasha was confused but did as he was told in fear.

"SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!" She screamed. The two boys were sent flying to the ground and both had their own little crater. "And don't think the punishment ends here!" She yelled down at them.

The Next Morning

"Here!" Kagome yelled, Shoving a shovel into Inuyasha's hand and a saw into Ed's. "what are these for?" Ed asked. "You Ed will dig up every tree that is damaged and cut it into future fire wood." she told him. "Easy." He said with a smile. "Without Alchemy." She finished. His smile dropped and Inuyasha laughed. "You Inuyasha will replant every single flower you damaged and rebuild the wall you threw Ed through." She told him. Both guys look at the ground gloomily.

"And you will receive no break until your work is finished!" She told them. Inuyasha turned to look at the flower bed. It was going to take time and patients to plant those flowers. Things he didn't have. Ed turned to the trees. There was maybe 20 trees. And about ten of them were still in the ground. He was going to have to ripped them up, and he wasn't strong enough. "Have fun boys. And don't you dare help the other out. If you can't work together everyday, then you can't today." And with that she walked off towards school, leaving them to their work.
