Phoenix: Hii!

Crystal: Guess what! We're now calling a friend of ours Curious George!

Phoenix: HE used to be Chelsea then we called HIM Chester and now HE'S Curious George! (He's actually a SHE. It's an inside joke.)

Crystal: Soooo….

Phoenix: ……….Read the story.

Crystal: Yeah….

Phoenix: Right…….

Crystal: Smmmmmmmmmmmooooooooke!

Phoenix: Okay! (Takes out cigar)

Crystal: Noo! I mean our secret stash of sugar-high goodness is smoking.

Phoenix: Where there's a smoke there's a fire.

Crystal: And……..

Phoenix: OH MY GOD! OUR SUGARY GOODNESS IS ON FIRE! (Runs to direction of smoke)

Crystal: Goooood Phoenix. Now you'll burn while saving our stash. (Takes out cigar and walks away.)

Chapter 7

Kagome groaned as Inuyasha continued yelling at her. Ever since she sat him he was blaring like a loudspeaker. "Are you done yet?" she asked the man.

"No! You are so" He was cut off by the soft sobbing noises coming from Kagome. "Are you crying?"

"No, I'm singing! What do you think I'm doing?"

"Don't cry! I'll stop yelling if you stop crying!" Inuyasha said frantically trying to stop her sobs.

"I'm not crying because you're yelling! I'm crying because you just won't SHUT IT!" Kagome said, grabbing his ear.

Inuyasha yelped, "My ear, my ear, my ear!" he bounced around as Kagome pulled on it.

"Now, I'll let go if you stop being an ass."

"Kagome, that's impossible!" Shippo smirked.

"True." Kagome laughed. She let go of the irate boy's ear and watched as he tried to attack Shippo. "Sit, boy." she really enjoyed watching him fall like that.

"Damn it! Will you ever give it a rest?" Inuyasha said pulling himself up after the spell wore off.

"Nopie, Nopie!" Kagome smiled cheerfully.

Inuyasha growled and ignored her.

Sango comes back from tending to Kaede, Miroku following. She had something weird in her hand

"What do you have Sango?" Kagome asked.

Miroku shook his head, "She's in a state of shock."

"Wouldn't you take advantage of that?" Inuyasha asked.

"That's a good idea." Miroku said thoughtfully.

Suddenly, Sango wakes up from her state of shock and slaps Miroku. She opened her hand and inside was a condom-like thing. (Just pretend they had those things.)

Kagome gasped and covered Shippo's eyes, forgetting he couldn't tell what it was. "Did Kaede give you that, but why?"

"She saw Miroku grope me and said something about how unprotected sex leads to babies that make life miserable and to just ask Inu's mom."

"Hey!"

Inuyasha was ignored and Kagome shook her head. "That old woman is really nuts."

Shippo raised an eyebrow at the dominating and slightly crazy adults. "You just figured that out?"

Kagome shrugged and sighed. "I'm going to bed! Whoever is with me, say aye!"

Miroku grabbed Kagome's hands. "I'm most definitely with you."

Kagome looked confused before she realized what he meant. "EWWW, Miroku lets keep it PG!"

"Then let's just" Miroku was cut off by Sango's boomerang and Inuyasha's fist. "Why are you all so cruel?"

"Why are you so damn lecherous?" Sango growled. She grabbed the whimpering man and threw him into his bed.

"Why Sango, if you wanted me that much, you could've just asked!" Miroku smiled, patting the area beside him, only getting a pillow in the head as a response.

Kag's P.O.V.

Kagome smiled as she got up but it was quickly wiped away when she smelled something. She was really upset when she realized it was herself. "Oh god, I reek!" she shifted so she couldn't smell herself and Shippo, who was sleeping beside her, shivered.

Inuyasha sat up straight, not wanting to miss an insult opportunity. "I could've told you that!"

"Sit."

"ARGH!"

"Now, how am I going to get clean?" Kagome asked herself.

"Well, there's a hot spring a little ways from here. I saw it while scouting the area for other demons." Sango said, "I'll join you."

Kagome smiled and nodded happily. She walked off into the direction Sango had pointed to. When she found it she took off her clothes and slipped into the boiling mass of water. "Ah, this feels so good..."

"So, you're the woman who can shoot the sacred arrow." Kagome turned around to see a man in a baboon pelt staring at her.

Kagome prepared to scream but was cut off by the man's clothed hand. "You will not say a word." She was then lifted and dragged the opposite way of camp.

Sango whistled as she walked to the springs. She slipped in and was surprised to see Kagome's clothes but no Kagome. After a while she began getting worried. She put her clothes on and went back to camp thinking that's where she went. "Hey guys, have you seen Kagome?"

"Nope," Miroku said, tied to a tree and blindfolded.

Inuyasha went into protective mode. "Why, you don't know where she is?"

"No, I don't. When I got to the hot springs she was missing but her clothes were there."

Inuyasha got on his knees and began sniffing around. "Her scent goes this way." Sango untied Miroku and woke up Shippo. They followed him and he led them to a clearing.

Kagome whimpered as the man shifted her again. 'The guys probably know I'm gone by now. I have to show them the way.' Kagome lowered her voice to whisper. "Sit."

Inuyasha yelped as he was pulled down by the rosary. "Kagome must be near." he mumbled into the ground. He fell again and again. Each time getting stronger, which meant she was near. All of a sudden a man came into view and in his arms was a very naked Kagome.

They ran over and Inuyasha growled. "Who are you?"

The man turned around and seemed to be smirking. "So the wench has a few friends. No matter, you'll all suffer the same fate."

"I won't ask again, who are you?"

"Why Inuyasha, your reputation proceeds you. There are a lot of people that want your head. To answer your question, I am Naraku."

Sango glare, "You're the one who wanted the jewel."

"But you are not a normal demon are you?" Miroku said staring at the demon as if something was bothering him.

"Ah, yes. I was once a man named Onigumo. A pitiful soul, he was. He was badly burned and called upon the demons to give him a new body on his last day. Therefore…"

"You were born."

Inuyasha growled, "I won't let you have Kagome!" he ran and attacked the man and grabbed Kagome. Naraku jumped up and a black smoke came out of him.

Inuyasha covered his nose, "A miasma! Sango, Miroku, take Kagome and get out of here!"

"Right," Miroku grabbed Kagome and he and Sango were off.

Inuyasha turned back to Naraku only to see a thick fog. He then spotted something moving and attacked. Naraku leaped out of the smoke and Inuyasha could only see his eyes through his black haze. Those red, evil eyes, not filled with an ounce of remorse.

Inuyasha walked back to the group.

Miroku looked at him, "At least we know now that our foe is Naraku. We don't have to seek him out, if we keep collecting jewel shards, he'll come to us."

Kagome sniffed and moaned, "Oh man, I still stink!"

Sango laughed lightly and turned to Inuyasha. "Hey Naraku, said that there were a lot of people out for your head. Why?"

"Because I stole from them, though I can only think of one person still searching."

"Who," asked Kagome.

"A demon that's annoying like no other. A demon named Kouga."

Phoenix: I know I know, you hate us. This chapter was short for cliffie purposes.

Crystal: (Drinking coffee) Must stay awake…must stay awake…must stay awake.

Phoenix: The boogeyman has been bothering her lately. He won't leave her alone.

Crystal: The clowns, the clowns! (Screams and runs into our quicksand room….don't ask.)

Phoenix: Guess I better fish her out before she sees her long dead pets.

Crystal From inside quicksand) Patches! What are you doing in here? Patches? Patches…..AHHHH! You're dead!

Phoenix: Too late!
