Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha, but I do remember that one time I almost went to Japan. Maybe I could have bought him then...I doubt it though...

A/n: Oh, I'm so sorry that I'm bugging you here, but I'll try my hardest to never ever do it again! First of all, I'd just like to say "Thank You" for even clicking on this lovely thing of mine. Second, none of these stories link together, please don't think they do. They're all just posted here by the date I wrote them, they do not all fit together into some awsome story, they're only one-shots that live on their own. Third, please feel free to flame, but do not if you're going to yell at me for my grammar. Believe me, I know its horrible, I don't need another person telling me I'm an idiot. If you want to yell at me for making the characters out of character, do so. Review and hopefully you'll never hear from me again. Also feel free to ask questions if I've lost you along the way, review or e-mail me. Again, Thank you!


Nothing

Kagome stared down at the poor helpless face of a young boy, long dead and most of his body now housed maggots and other such bugs. A monster had come and taken him, his family, and his village. Somehow the shock of seeing dead things had lessened less as she grew. Her first encounter with a dead thing, other then funerals in her time, was with Mistress Centipede. When she had been split threw the middle by the inu hanyou she had only just released from his spelled slumber. The Mistress's twitching body had frightened her, but she had over come it and since almost had thought nothing of death. It was simply life moving onto something greater, but cadavers always secretly scared her.

But, here she was, four year later, still facing the dead. It wasn't anything new, nothing shocking, yet it was saddening. Such a young life, he couldn't be any older then eleven, much too young to be slaughtered in such away. Slaughtered in away Kagome had never even dreamed of before she fell down that well.

The Feudal Era had never seemed to cease shocking Kagome. Monsters, Samurai, Nobles, Princesses, Monks, Priestesses, War. All of these things where near extinct in her time. Monsters and samurai didn't exist anymore. Nobles, princesses and war only lived in other, distant countries. And monks, priestesses and their strange powers where rare and few apart. Things like nail polish was reserved for the rich and wealthy, guns had only just appeared from the 'black ships'. Even the first sign of InuYasha's great fang first transformed has almost made her wet herself, and yet…

Kagome sighed slightly as she looked away from the corpse. Slowly, she stood up, her back snapping into an almost military form. Straight backed and proud. An unforeseen force made her twitch where she stood as she turned to face the young man behind her. His eyes where closed, his body being supported by the beams of a fallen hut, peaceful nothingness alight on his face. Like he didn't have a care in the world. Kagome stretched slightly, feeling her shirt slip up slightly and exposing her protruding belly.

For the first time in minutes, perhaps even hours Kagome smiled as she caught the eye the man had just cracked open, staring unabashedly at her stomach. Four years since she had met him, five in just a few months time. If anything truly surprised her these days it would be him.

"I'm tired, perhaps we should head back?" She suggested, letting out a little yawn as her companion closed his eye again.

"You don't mean that." He replied gruffly, which only succeeded in making Kagome's eyebrows rise, almost disappearing into her hairline.

"If I didn't mean it, I wouldn't have said it."

"Your poor old feet tired?"

"You try carrying an extra five or so pounds daily."

"I carry about two hundred pounds daily."

"Oh! That was uncalled for, you ungrateful insensitive jerk!"

"Well its true…kinda"

"Ugh, sometimes you must make me want to…THROTTLE YOU!" She roared, glaring at the seemingly relaxed man. Since when had her anger been so easy to rub off? Oh, that was right, since she had removed the beads…

"Don't yell, you'll hurt it."

"It? Don't you call it an it!"

"But you just…" He trailed off as he opened his eyes to stare at her, and he smirk slightly at her. "I've told you that you look cute when you're mad, right?"

"Many a time, and flattery won't get you anywhere."

"You sure?"

"Positive." He sighed slightly and took a step over towards her and knelt down until his eyes where level with her stomach. Tentatively, he reached out and poked her abdomen. "Quit it!" Kagome swatted his hand away. "Drop it, okay? Let's just go."

"Fine." He straightened and smiled somewhat smartly at her. And Kagome couldn't help but smile back at him, a smile from him was worth as much lifetime supply of diamonds to her. "Come on, you stupid human." He called out as he began to walk away from her, now positively smirking.

"Ugh! I….ugh!" Tottering slightly, she jogged on after him, watching him grin. "This isn't healthy at all! You're going to kill me."

"What doesn't kill you just makes you stronger." He called back, the smirk now infiltrating his voice.

"Mou, InuYasha!"

"Don't you mou me missy."

"Missy? Missy!"

"Sorry, sorry. I mean, missus."

"Damn right you do."

"I think I've finally began to rub off on you…" Kagome stuttered slightly as she caught up with him.

"You beast…" She watched his smirk widen, now clearly showing off his fanged canines.

"So if it's a boy I think we should call it InuYasha junior, ne?"
