Lost Homes Chapter 7
A Reunion From the Past
The blanket was unraveled and she smiled. Kagome knew this little fellow, however, how he got here, she didn't know. The Count looked at her. "I do believe he will keep you happy for some time." Kagome nodded. "Yes I do believe so." Kagome began to walk away towards the door when the Count stopped her. "When you leave here you must not tell anyone else of what you saw in this store. My customers, alone, are only to know of what resides in here." Kagome nodded, and they walked out the door together. They came back the way they came and opened the same large cherry-wood doors they had come from earlier. The opened the doors to find…Inuyasha and T-Chan wrestling. Kagome and Count D. both scowled at them, but needless to say it didn't do much good. 'If I say sit, then it will make him stop, but then again Count D. will definatly be asking some questions,' Kagome thought to herself. The Count walked over to T-Chan and attempted to pull him off of Inuyasha. Just as Count pulled, T-Chan grabbed hold of Inuyasha's hat and yanked it off to reveal his ears. The count gasped. "What in the world?" Just about this time the little blanket Kagome held began to wriggle. It squeaked then hopped out of the blanket and unto Kagome's shoulder. Inuyasha stopped worrying about his lost hat and looked and Kagome's new "pet"… However Count D. was otherwise curious…about Inuyasha's ears. The Count walked over to Inuyasha, reached up…and began to rub them. "Are these real?" Inuyasha jumped away quickly and landed next to Kagome. He flexed his hands, popped his knuckles, and miraculously his nails grew to his normal size. The Count was impressed. He was quite a marvel, and would sell for a hefty price…if he could just get the girl to sell him. "Kagome can I please kill him now?" Inuyasha asked. He then looked over Kagome's shoulder. "And how the hell did you get here pipsqueak?" "That's a long story, and I'm too tired to tell it now." Kagome's pet was actually her other feudal fox friend, Shippou. Kagome looked over at Inuyasha. "No we can't kill him!" She yelled. Sango and Miroku looked at each other. "Uh Kagome, He kinda' knows our secret. How are we supposed to get past this?" Sango asked. Kagome looked at the Count. 'Is he smiling?' She thought to herself. "What do we have to do in order for you not to tell anyone our secret?" Kagome asked. The Count held up two fingers. "I have only two conditions. Both are easily paid and quite simple." Kagome smiled. She knew this guy was nice. He was really sweet too; he wasn't sleazy like some other people she knew. "Anything you want." She replied. "One," He began, "I want Inuyasha to hang out in my shop for a few days so I might get a few more customers." "Hey!" Inuyasha began, but Kagome cut him off. "Alright," she agreed. Inuyasha couldn't believe this she practically selling him off to a girly, dress wearing, animal loving, sweet food fanatic. "What is the other condition?" Miroku asked curiously. If the Count wasn't smiling before, he definatly was now. "…I want to double date with Kagome and Sango for the same week that Inuyasha is in my shop." Everyone's jaws dropped. 'So much for him being the sweet understanding guy.' Kagome thought comically. Miroku and Inuyasha flared. 'No way is he taking our girls!' They thought in unison. Sango threw her hands up in defense. "Um sorry, but I don't really remember ever having anything to do with this!" "But Sango I want to go back home…"Shippou whimpered. Sango dropped her head. "Alright Count, the deal is made, however remember that this is only for a week." She looked back at Miroku and Inuyasha, "Besides, what is a week going to do anyways?" Miroku looked just about ready to burst. "A hell of a lot if you ask me!" "But I didn't ask you did I you pervert." Miroku shrugged. "Very well. There is no need for me to stick around here anyway, seeing as how I am not part of this." And with that, Miroku stomped out of the shop and hopped in his car. Revving up the engine he peeled out of the parking lot and down the busy street. The others coulddo nothing butlisten as his car left the area. Kagome felt really bad for Sango. She wasn't really in this, and she liked Miroku, a lot. Kagome sighed and plopped down on the couch. The Count was quite a happy man and seemed to almost be enjoying this little scene. Inuyasha however was another story completely. He looked just about ready to blow up he was so mad. "What in the seven hells makes you think that I am doing this of my own free will?" The Count looked over at him and practically smirked, "Because free will is something you don't have." Inuyasha's head nearly steamed as he leapt out towards the Count. Kagome rubbed her temples, "Sit boy." And so he was plunged into the ground. "Just as I thought." The count remarked. "This is the most interesting dog I have ever seen. So, did you find him over seas?" Kagome shook her head. "No, he is actually a demon fro-" Inuyasha swung his hand over her mouth to keep her from talking. Count D. was now definitely interested in where Inuyasha had come from and he intended to find out. While those three were preoccupied, Sango was sitting on the couch off to the side just off in her own little world…pretty much just stunned that Miroku had left with nothing else to say to her. Kagome looked over at Sango and then bit Inuyasha's hand. "Ouch!" He jumped back and cradled his hand, while Kagome stood up and walked over to Sango. Shippou jumped off of her shoulder and onto Sango's, shouting her name loudly. "Sango wake up." She snapped out of her little daze and looked up into Kagome's eyes. Kagome felt her heart skip a beat. Sango was crying. The strongest girl in the world, the girl who beat up demons all the time, was crying over a perverted monk. Kagome looked over at Count D and bowed her head. "If you don't mind, we'll leave for today." The count bowed his head back in agreement. "I hope to see you all bright and early tomorrow morning." Kagome helped Sango up and they began heading out. Inuyasha grabbed his hat from the dreaded T-Chan and followed them. Kagome hugged Sango's shoulders. "Hey it's alright. It's not like we'll develop feelings or anything, and besides, Miroku shouldn't get so uptight about things like this. How about we go find something to eat?" Sango wiped her eyes and nodded. "yay food!" Shippou yelled jumping up and down. Kagome led them around in the front of the group. Sango trailed just slightly behind Kagome, her head hung low while she continued to wipe the tears from her eyes, Inuyasha brought up the rear, and Shippou was sitting on Sango's shoulders trying to cheer her up. Meanwhile Inuyasha was blazing. There couldn't possibly be anyone madder than he was at this very moment. While they were walking they came upon a large candy shop/restaurant. Kagome dragged her party members into the shop and sat them down. A waitress walked over and sat three menus on the table. Kagome looked through the menu while Inuyasha just spun it around the table, and Sango sat looking out of the window sulking. Shippou was feeling a little out of place and tugged on Kagome's shirt. "Kagome, why is everyone so unhappy." Kagome looked over her menu and sighed. Everyone was unhappy and she didn't think this was how they should act. After all, they just got back one of their friends. "Come on you guys be happy. It's not the end of the world." Inuyasha never took his eyes off the spinning menu, "feh." The waitress came back and asked what they want. Kagome thought for a minute…"Oh, give me 4 'death by chocolates' please." Inuyasha's ears perked up happily, as if his whole day suddenly took a wild 180. "C-chocolate?" Giggling, Kagome nodded. "Yeah chocolate. Ya know the stuff you pigged out on at Miroku's?" "What's chocolate Kagome?" Shippou asked confused. "Is it anything like a lollypop?" Inuyasha smirked. "It's far better than a lollypop." Shippou began yelling at Inuyasha as they began another one of their stupid fits. Sango poked Kagome on the shoulder. "You do know what you've done right?" Kagome nodded as the waitress returned carrying 4 large dishes with 3 scoops of chocolate ice cream topped with chocolate syrup, chocolate sprinkles and a chocolate-covered cherry on each scoop of ice cream. Inuyasha's eyes sparkle and even Sango was dazzled by the massive amount of chocolate. Shippou was just stuttering, "c-ch-ch-choco-cola-ate!" Kagome rubbed her hands together and picked up a spoon. She smiled at each of them and said, "Dig in!"
