Ugh, my computer was fried and my stubborn mom just decided to hook up our second aka my computer to the internet, which we only have one road runner cord.
To say sorry to all my reviewers, I'm gonna update with TWO chapters. just review both of them please! And if you're waiting for the Inuyasha/Harry Potter cross, sorry, but I typed the next chapter four times and all the four times it was deleted, so I'm working here! Just hold on a little longer...
Oh, and as a side thought, I think I should reiterate that Sesshoumaru is going to be out of character for a while. I mean, if you were subjected to the stuff he was, wouldn't you? And eventually, he is gonna have some sort of fun...
What's fun again?
"So, Sesshoumaru, are you ready for the concert? It starts in two minutes…" Kagome said softly, holding out her hand.
Sesshoumaru smiled at her appraisingly as he rose. Somehow, she made him feel so much better…(A.N.-NOT A SESSH/KAG PAIRING! Just makin' sure you don't get the wrong idea…)
"Yes, let us depart. I would like to see exactly what this 'concert' is."
Soon enough, Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha found out exactly what a concert was, and while they had to admit that Do As Infinity was good, the amplifiers weren't.
As soon as the song started, before any singing was done, Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru had passed out onto the ground.
"Oh, boy. Sensitive ears," Kagome remembered.
She dragged the brothers out as best she could and revived them both.
"I…I do not like concerts," Sesshoumaru said shakily. "Too much noise…"
"Yeah, what he said," Inuyasha concurred.
"I totally forgot about your senses, guys. Um…how about you explore the park a bit and meet me after the concert?"
"How will we know when it's done?"
"With your ears and this amphitheater, I don't think it'll be too hard," Kagome said matter of factly.
"True," Sesshoumaru agreed. "I shall keep an ear out; we will pick you up…"
"Okay. Well, it's gonna last about an hour. 'Kay?"
"Yeah, yeah."
"Listen to me…"
Kagome flicked Inuyasha's and Sesshoumaru's noses so that they would pay attention to her.
"No fighting. Understand?"
The brothers nodded.
"Okay, stop nodding. Tell me that you understand."
"I understand," they both said impatiently.
"Good. So have fun!" She said cheerily.
Kagome ran back into the amphitheater.
"So…um…now what do we do?" Inuyasha asked.
"I do not care. You may do as you like. I…I do not feel well…" Sesshoumaru replied. He didn't want to be within three miles of his brother at the moment.
"Hey, what's the matter with you?" Inuyasha snapped as his brother's eyes diverted.
"I just feel sick is all…"
"Well get over it!" snarled the hanyou. "I'm not too happy with you!"
"Look, I said I was sorry! Don't hurt me please! I am not ready to be hurt…"
Sesshoumaru's golden eyes flickered in momentary madness before he took off running into the crowd.
"Sesshoumaru…SESSHOUMARU! Goddamn it!"
Inuyasha began to track his brother, knowing that if he didn't want to be found, he wouldn't be found.
However, the scent of the distraught demon was always just in range of Inuyasha's nose. He didn't want to talk, but he didn't want to leave Inuyasha in the dust. It would disappoint Kagome and her mother…
Eventually, Sesshoumaru came to rest. This was after twenty minutes of dragging Inuyasha around the park, and the hanyou was not too happy when he found his brother panting and leaning in an alley.
"You bastard! What is your problem!" Inuyasha growled, pinning Sesshoumaru up to the wall by his neck. Strangely, Sesshoumaru made no attempt to save face or even to fight Inuyasha's control. He merely smiled.
"Are you going to kill me?" he gasped, still winded. "Because I've wanted to die for a long time—ever since I met Zanmaru and Tima. I no longer fear it. If I am to be persecuted as such, there is no reason for me to live. And you will never forgive me for my actions."
"Damn right, I won't. But I made a vow. I said I'd find this cure, and I will. So stop being fussy."
"I do not wish to be hurt."
"I ain't gonna hurt you, stupid! I just want you outta my life! The sooner you're cured, the sooner you can be out of it! Understand?"
"Yes, I understand…"
"I don't mean that 'submission' sort of 'understand'. I mean for real. Do you really get what I mean?"
"Yes, I say! I know what you mean!"
"Then let's just try to have fun. I know I'm being a little insufferable, okay? There, I said it!"
Inuyasha dropped his brother to the ground.
"You are insufferable, but I do not say it in malice as I normally would. I say it in brotherly goodwill…"
"Feh! Goodwill my ass!"
Sesshoumaru rose to his feet and brushed himself off slightly.
"I apologize for leading you around the park. I should not have done that…"
"Damn right you shouldn't have! You put me through absolute hell!"
"Give me the map."
Sesshoumaru snatched the map of the park up and ran his fingers down it.
"Hmm…this looks good…bumper cars…"
"Oh yeah!" Inuyasha said in remembrance. "Kagome mentioned something about bumper cars one day. She said she went to an amusement park with a boy in her time and they went on the bumper cars…Hoho, or Hobo or something like that…who cares?"
"You should. This is Kagome we're talking about. This boy could be a threat to your relationship…" Sesshoumaru stated.
"Shaddup! It's none of your business!"
"I am your brother. Take it from me; love is no easy ride. I have had experience with it…"
"Really? What was your love life like? I can't see you with one…"
"That is personal. You will not take that from me," Sesshoumaru growled.
"Fine, bastard. So, do you want to go to the bumper cars? That concert is starting to wind down about now…"
"Very well. Iku zo…"
The Inu Bros. didn't have a problem finding the bumper cars.
"These are bumper cars? How mundane," Sesshoumaru sighed. He yanked on one of his short locks.
"Let's get in line."
They waited for about ten minutes before finally getting a turn on the ride. It was only five minutes, but those five minutes were the most fun that they had in the entire time.
"Move it, Sesshoumaru, you're fat ass is in my way!"
"Say it to my face, baka kusotare!"
WHAM!
The bumper cars ricocheted off of each other and went flying in two different directions.
"Son of a bitch!" Inuyasha snarled.
"I know what I am, what are you?" Sesshoumaru said coolly.
"Graahhh! That was an insult!"
"For being flung to an Inu Youkai, it was a very ignorant one…"
"Rrrgh!"
Inuyasha rammed his brother on the side of his bumper car and into the wall. The demon felt his neck snap to the side and twinge in pain.
"Ouch!" he muttered.
Then the ride was over.
Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha got out of the cars and leaned on the wall.
"Heh. I got the last hit on you!" Inuyasha sneered.
"Shut you mouth…" Sesshoumaru snarled. He shuddered, gripping his throbbing head. He wasn't quite sure whether he was wholly recovered from any abuse he'd gone through, but he knew that the ram from the car shouldn't have jarred his neck so thoroughly.
"What's your problem, baka?"
"My neck hurts…" he replied. "But it is nothing to trouble over…"
"Okay, whatever…"
R & R before you check the next chapter, please!
