Puppy Boy
Reliving
Kagome ran out to find Inuyasha with a bowl over his head looking pretty pissed off.
"Oh, you silly puppy." Kagome pulled he bowl off and heard a clatter upstairs. Kagome's blood froze. What...in...the...hell..was...THAT! Kagome licked her lips and slowly walked upstairs. She looked back when she reached the top of the stairs. Inuyasha was right behind her slightly growling. Kagome quietly opened the closet door and picked up a baseball bat. She jerked her head when she heard another clatter. It was coming from her room. She snuck to the side of the door and, gathering her courage, charged into her room with her bat raised above her head.
"AHHHHHHHHH-"
"BWAAAAAAAAA! DON'T HIT ME KAGOME OKAA-SAN" Kagome stopped and dropped the bat, she came face to face with an eight-year-old Shippo. (OK, I know there is some argument about Shippo's ages, I'm just saying he looked 5 so 3 years later he's 8) Kagomedroppedto her knees and held Shippo like he was the only thing keeping her to the earth. Tears randown her face and she heard Shippo sniffle and whimper. She looked at him and ran her hand through his hair. Which was longer and thicker, with much more tangles. He looked thin and pale. There was some hairspray and perfume on the floor, which meant that Shippo was playing with it when she walked in. Shippo hugged her hard and burried his face in her chest.
"I missed you so much, Kagome!" Her chest was soaked in a matter of seconds.
"Wow, you're so big" She said for a lack of words. Shippo finally took a good look at her.
"You're so sad Kagome." He ran his dirty calloused hand under her eye leaving a smear of watery dirt.
"I'm sorry, I got you dirty." He said withdrawing his hand. Kagome pulled his hand back to her face and leaned into it. She pulled him into another big hug and kissed his cheeks.
"Oh, Shippo you need a bath." Kagome said rubbing her face dry of tears. Shippo perked up, Same old Kagome, under all that sadness. She pulled his hand and made his a hot-spring in a small white tub. Shippo snuggled into the hot water and relaxed for the first time in as long as Kagome's been gone. Kagome ran her hand through the water.
"I'll go get some of Souta's clothes, yours are really tattered." Shippo nodded and when Kagome left he turned to Inuyasha.
"I take it she has no idea that you're you?"
'No, and you better keep your mouth shut'
"And if I don't? What? She let you see her change?"
'Don't be a smart ass, if you say anything I'll kill you.'
"Oh yeah you're gonna bite me? Don't you fucking ever tell me what to do, you have no fucking idea what I've been through, you can't imagine it."
'So...you're finally manning up?'
"Fuck you."
'Such foul language.' Shippo growled, but stopped and smiled.
"Ho funny to talk about manning up, or foul language, you're not a man, and you can't even talk."
'You better shut your mouth." Shippo laughed and said two words he shouldn't have...
"Or what?" Inuyasha barked and jumped intio the water. Kagome ran in and pulled Shippo out of the water.
"Bad Inuyasha" Shippo scolded.
"How'd you know his name was Inuyasha?"
"Lucky guess." Kagome looked at him oddly, to divert her attention he heald up his arm.
"He bit me Kagome." Sure enough there were two bite marks on his right forearm.
"Oh poor baby." Kagome wrapped him in a cotton towel and carried him ot of the room with a soaking Inuyasha at her heels.
Kagome set Shippo in her room and placed out some of Souta's old clothing. There was a pair of jeans, a pair of underwear, a red shirt and a pair of sneakers. Kagome could only hope everything would fit. Luckily everything fit perfect and Kagome put some cream on his bitemarks and wrapped them in a bandage.
"You must be so hungry. While you eat, you can tell me everything thats happened," Kagome tried to sound happy but her heart was beating so very fast. Kagome started making something to eat and realized that her hands were shaking. She somehow got throug making the ramen and sat down with Shippo.
"So..." Kagome looked down at her hands.
"So...why did you leave Kagome?"
"Is that what you guys thought. That I just decided to get up and leave?" Shippo looked down and sniffed. He knew it wasn't true.
"It..it's just that, well, you didn't come back to the village...and Naraku did, and he started making everything so...bad. He killed Kaede." Kagome's hand went to her mouth. "And Kikyo."
"What about Inuyasha?"
"He never came back"
BING
Kagome looked up, the timer was done on the Noodles. Kagome grabbed it and a pair of chopsticks and handed it to Shippo. Shippo smelled it and his mouth watered. He had really missed this. After a few bites he continued.
"Things havn't been going too well. Miroku got hurt...bad. Sango's worried he might not live. Kirara is sick and may be dying." He looked up and Kagome."I don't want them to die." He sniffed and Kagome ran her hand through his hair, what she could. He looked down and tears hit the table under Shippo and when he looked up his ace was scrunched up.
"It's alright to cry." Kagome said gently. Shippo nodded and continued eating. After he was done. He looked up at Kagome. Tired and sore.
"You don't have to continue."
"I want too. You want to know how I got here." Kagome looked down at her hands. "I made a deal with a witch. I was too give her a jewel shard and she would let me pass for 7 days. I didn't think it was a big deal. She would've killed me if I hadn't given it to her anyway. But Naraku would've tortured me if he knew I had it."
"Shippo, I'm gonna brush out your hair, put you to bedand tommorrow you will go give bandages to Miroku and Kirara, if they need anything else, come back and tell me." Shippo nodded and fell asleep as Kagome finished brushing his hair. Kagome layed him down with her with Inuyasha laying next to him. When Kagome fell asleep, Shippo turned to Inuyasha.
"I really misse dyou Inuyasha."
'Yeah, I really missed you too.' Shippo started crying 'Don't cry, quit crying!' Shippo hugged Inuyasha tightly.
'Aww, kid...brat...' Shippo laughed gently and fell asleep.
