A/N: Sorry, yes it has been taking me a whole lot longer to update, but I am a) busy and b) incredibly unmotivated to do anything. Thank you to all of my reviewers, you guys are the best. Yes, Sesshomaru was VERY weird in part one, but I couldn't help myself, I will stick to his real personality from now on HEE! Well, here's chapter six part two!


CHAPTER SIX-PART TWO: Shippo the matchmaker

"You, know, I haven't the faintest idea who he is." Kagome relied leaning closer into Ayame. They started to whisper back and forth speculating who the mysterious person could be. Well, they whispered till Ayame said…

"Whoever he is he's-"Kagome cut her off.

"Don't even say anything. I know you were going to say cute, DON'T DENY IT!" Kagome said, glaring down at a huddling Ayame. "And you know Koga would strangle you if he heard you say that. He's was protective of you even if he doesn't realize it yet.

Ayame blinked and then sniffed and stuck her nose in the air huffily. "Well, I doubt he will ever realize that the world rotates around the sun, that the moon isn't only out at night, and that…well…least of all, that he's protective of me. He barely even talks to me. He's always mooning over you. Well, I think it's about time that I got to have a little fun, and moon over someone too!"

With that, Ayame walked over to where Inu-Yasha and the mystery man (A/N: Mystery man! I liked writing that….mystery man! Ok, back to the story) who both looked remarkably frightened.

Inu-Yasha and Shippo had just gone through the worst of experiences of their lives. Wading through lacy underwear wasn't so bad, until they got to the land of pink….shudder. The frilly gowns and lacy t-shirts and….ahhhhhhhhh! It's to horrible to recall, all they knew is they never, NEVER wanted to do that again.

Shippo was the first of the two to notice Ayame approaching them. "Ummm…Inu-Yasha, I think we have company." Shippo whispered.

"No, you have company. BYE!" Inu-Yasha replied back as he sped towards Kagome, saying a quick hello to Ayame. Fehw…got out of that introduction. KAGOME SAVE ME! Inu-Yasha, stopped abruptly next to Kagome, who was just shaking her head at Ayame and mumbling to herself about stupid girls and dumb boys. I think she's going crazy…Inu-Yasha thought as he poked her in the arm to jolt her back into reality.

"Wha? Oh, hey Inu-Yasha what do you think of Ayame and the strange boy over there?"

"What? SHIPPO!" Inu-Yasha cried, finally catching on. "NO! EW! He's only 16 and she's like almost 19! BAD! That's crazy speech Kagome" Inu-Yasha cried horrified at the prospect.

"Shippo?" Kagome asked curious. That must be the strange boy over there. Sixteen is he? Way to young for her. Oh my gosh I sound like her mom! Shivering at the thought, Kagome turned and looked at Inu-Yasha.

"How do you think Koga will react to this?" Kagome asked, turning her head back to the scene infront of her. Shippo, well, he looked rather nerves, and Ayame, she couldn't see her face, but her nerves shifting was really starting to get annoying to watch.

"I think we'll find out really soon, as mutt boy is coming this way, once he figures out we're in the girls clothes and not boys." Inu-Yasha said, sniffing the air. Wow, he smells that bad that I can smell him all the way over here! (A/N: Ok, it sounds like a Koga put down, but its not. I personally love Koga, its just for the sake of the story I do this. Sniff)

Koga, suddenly figuring it out and was behind them in a flash. He was, or is, the star runner of the Shikon Private High School, so he ran rather quickly if you catch my drift….

"Who's Ayame talking to?" Koga growled in their ears.

"GAAAA! Don't do that Koga. Gad! You scared 10 years off my life!" Kagome cried out. Breathing in and out, in and out calming herself from her fright, "that's Shippo, Inu-Yasha and Sesshomaru's second cousin."

"Why is he talking to her? I haven't met him! No strange male can speak with her till I have!" Koga growled and started the long walk towards them.

Shippo, at just that moment, looked over Ayame's shoulder and noticed the strange guy giving him the death glare. Hmmmm…so I guess that's he elusive Koga. Well, let me see if I can't just get them coupled up…let's work some magic! So Shippo started to complement Ayame's hair and her eyes and everything he could think of, and Ayame fell into it like a fish would water. Blushing and mumbling thank you's to everyone of them, Ayame didn't see Koga walk up to them, looking like a thunder cloud he got in between Shippo and Ayame.

"Just who the hell do you think you are, talking to Ayame like that? Leading her on and stuff. So BACK OFF! SHE'S ALREADY TAKEN!" Koga growled rather forcefully.

Ayame just gapped at Koga. How dare he! He can't just come over here and ruin a perfectly good conversation…even if it was a little one sided on Shippo's part. But, who does he think he is, doing something like that! "WHO AM I TAKEN BY! DEFFINENTLY NO YOU! YOU LOVE KAGOME REMEMBER!" Ayame growled back even louder.

"Ya, by me! You're mine Ayame! And I will be damned before I let this pipsqueak take you from me!" Koga growled into her face, which were only a few inches from each other.

"Do you mean that Koga? Really mean that?" Ayame said in a small voice, a rather hopeful, innocent voice.

"ya," He grumbled, kinda blushing at it.

"OH KOGA!" Ayame cried and flung herself into his arms. Tears running down her face, she was so happy. He said it out loud! Oh, he does care about me more than her! Ayame wouldn't let go, and was squeezing rather tightly.

"Ummm, Ayame honey, Koga got to breath!" Koga wheezed, gasping for air as she released him. Mumbling a 'sorry' Ayame took Koga's hand and they walked over to Inu-Yasha, who had a eyebrow arched, and Kagome, who looked ready to cry.

"It's like and old romance movie!" Kagome sniffed into her handkerchief.

"Feh," Was all Inu-Yasha said, not really caring.


Then next day, well, was Inu-Yasha's birthday and everyone, meaning: Sesshomaru, Rin, Koga, Ayame, Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, Sango, Jaken, and even cringe Naraku, would be there. Kagome, Sango, and Ayame were already there and setting everything up. Sesshomaru, Inu-Yasha, and Miroku though were outside staring at the huge mud puddle in front of the door to the shrine. Who would go first to walk around it?


A/N: OK there I finished it! YAY FOR ME! Well, the next chapter will be called 'The Collar' and you'll find out why, its really funny! Well, bye everyone! REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
