"Kagome!"
"ACK!"
"Danny, get off my cousin!"
"She's my cousin, not yours! At least I'm related to her by blood!"
"Danny, shut up and get off her or I'll tell mom!"
"Ter-ri! You wouldn't!"
"I would and I will now get off!"
"Circulation…being cut…off…"
"Ooops, sorry Kagome."
The black-haired girl blushed deeply and climbed off her cousin, who looked almost identical to her. Except Danny's hair was a little shorter and was braided, and she had a deep tan. The blond boy sitting on the couch sighed and shook his head.
"Aw, c'mon Terri." Danny cooed, standing up and pulling Kagome up, before strutting over to him and plopping down in his lap. Terri promptly pushed her off. She pouted and climbed onto the couch beside him. Kagome rolled her eyes and sat down on Terri's other side. "So how's Angel?" Danny continued, cocking her head.
"We broke up."
"What?" Danny blinked. "But I though—"
"That we loved each other? Ha!" He gave a short bark of laughter and shook his head. "That bullshi—"
"KAGOME!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the door as it slammed open, revealing a very pissed off dog demon. Of course, only Kagome knew the ears were real. That was, until…
"Holy shit!"
Sometime while Terri was staring and Kagome was fuming, Danny had stood up and had began to tug at InuYasha's ears. InuYasha's eye was twitching and Kagome quickly bolted over, pulling her cousin away.
"You said you would be back by the full moon. That was three nights ago." InuYasha growled. Kagome sighed.
"InuYasha. I told you they might stay longer. I told you I might be late. So sit—" His face smacked into the floor. "—down before I maul you."
"Bitch." He mumbled, only to suddenly have someone kick at him.
"Don't insult my cousin." Terri growled, glaring at the dog demon. Kagome quickly darted to him, abandoning her holding-back of Danny and instead restraining Terri.
"Terri. It wasn't an insult. You and Danny go sit down for a few minutes while I take this idiot into the kitchen." She said in a rush, nudging him in the direction of the couch before helping InuYasha up and dragging him into the kitchen, leaving her cousins to stare after her in confusion.
Then all hell broke loose.

I changed the name, since otherwise it would only be a letter or two off from the title of my newest story. So here's 'Our ties of Blood', chapter two. Enjoy!
