HI! I'm really happy today! I totally showed my parents up today when my report card was mailed to us. I DIDN'T FAIL ANY CLASSES! They swore that I would and so when I told them about it (cause I got to the mail first) they didn't believe me...so being the con artist I am I made them a bet that I did. My parents...so sure that I was lying actually took the bet... and so I am now 52 dollars richer...while they are in debt to me for another 30 bucks...which they still owe for the bet! WHO ROCKS? I ROCK! OH YEAH! I ROCK! UH HUH! I ROCK! And who says that gambling is bad?


Chapter 6: Mystify

"Come on Tsubaki! By the time you're done I might have starved to death already!"

"Not if I kill you first" Sango muttered.

"Take this to them" Tsubaki said handing her a plate full of dishes. She then shoved Sango out of the kitchen.

"About time!"

"Shut up and eat the damned food. I'm tired of hearing your mouth" Sango ordered. All of the men began snickering at the one she snapped at.

"And what if I don't?" he asked arrogantly. Sango grinned at him for a minute and then with lightning speed she swiped out a dagger and stabbed it between his 2 fingers and through the table.

"Let's just say...next time I won't miss" she whispered. Everybody in the dining room gulped and then quickly began eating their food.

"Wow. You certainly have a way with the crew already." Inuyasha said smirking.

"Tell me. If one of them pisses you off to the limit...are you allowed to kill them?"

"Sorry you can't"

"But you are more than welcome to anything else to them...as long as they can still breathe afterwards" Miroku piped in.

"Shouldn't you be somewhere...other than here?"

"Lady Sango! I'm hurt that you would actually think something like that! And here I thought you were one of us" he asked faking a sob.

"Miroku! You know I didn't mean it like that!" Sango said rubbing his back. Inuyasha rolled his eyes at the little act Miroku was putting on.

'It's only a matter of time...' he thought watching them in disgust. Then Miroku's hand wandered a little more down south. And then Sango noticed the entire room became silent as she felt something foreign rest itself on her bottom.

"Pervert!" she yelled slapping Miroku on the face. The whole room erupted in laughter.

"You're never gonna learn are ya?" Inuyasha teased.

"It was worth the pain" he said in a daze. Sango turned beet red and then stormed out of the room

"Finally! A girl who won't stand for his idiocy!" Tsubaki praised.

"Dearest Sango I invite you to my room so I may make up for my horrible actions"

"You wish... now people, if you're not going to eat you're in the wrong room...SO GET OUT!" Sango yelled.

"Well then I guess I'll be leaving now" Inuyasha said walking out.

"And just where are you going?" Tsubaki asked pointing a wooden spoon at him.

"To read a book" he said sarcastically. After hearing that Tsubaki's eye began to glow with a sense of mischief and she smiled.

"Actually...I know about a new book they found in one of the plunders. The crew seems to think that by reading it you could actually find out more about women and how to approach them"

"Keh! If that's all you wanted to say... then I'll be coming by later to get my rum for the night" he scoffed walking out. But everyone knew he was headed to the library.

"Well...aren't you going?" Sango asked agitated.

"Sorry but when her eye starts to glow that only means there will be trouble...so I'll stay here where it's safe...and in the company of you fine women"

"Good! You can try out my new poisons! I promise there's a cure this time!" Tsubaki said smiling brightly.

"On second thought...how about I leave you two to your work"

"I think that would be the smart thing to do" Sango said nodding.

"Until we meet again Lady Sango" he said kissing her hand causing Sango to turn beet red.


'Man...they weren't kidding when they said no ones patient enough to clean this room without cracking...I'm about to go crazy!'Kagome thought as she put away the last of the books.

"There. I'm done" she said setting the last book down. Then she turned around th find another wall full of more disheveled book cases.

"Better get to work..." she said sighing.

Inu's P.O.V

"You've got a really great voice" I commented. She whipped around startled and turned to stare at me. And then I found myself lost in the depths of those sapphire eyes. Ours eyes met for what seemed to be an eternity and I saw her face become a darker shade of red. Then she hastily turned back around pretending to focus on the books.

"You're not suppose to be in here!" she answered sharply.

"Uh...it's my ship. I can go whatever the hell I want" I shot back.

"But Tsubaki said no one came in here!"

"And you believed her?"I asked incredulously.

"Well..." Kagome stammered.

"Enough said...if you'll excuse me...I'm going to go read a book.." I said walking up to a book case.

'Let's see what she does now...' I thought snickering.

"No! I just cleaned that side up! Besides...I can't work knowing you're in the same room as me!"

"Well then...I guess you're gonna have to leave then..." I said casually.

"I'm not leaving. Why don't you go read your book somewhere else!" she said stubbornly.

"Maybe I don't want to...besides, this is a study/library so most normal people read in here" I teased.

"Well then don't touch the ones I've already sorted out" she snapped back at me.

"I can take whatever book I want...it's my ship"

"Well before I came it was your dirty ship. So I'd appreciate it if you kept it clean"

"Why do you have to be so difficult?"

"I'm not being difficult...I just want you to keep this room clean. If anyone's being difficult it's you"

"You're the one being difficult. I simply heard that there was a book I might want to read in here so I stopped by...now I am going to take it and read it"

"Not with me in the same room...how am I to concentrate with you sitting right behind me?"

"Oh I'm sure you'll think of something" I said sitting down.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Sitting. Is there a problem?" I asked sarcastically.

"Yes there is! I don't want you sitting in here with me"

"I'm not bothering you. Go on with your work" I said innocently. This woman was a stubborn one I'll give her that. I only started bickering to see how long she'd last...evidently she's about a stubborn as me. Maybe she wouldn't be such a bother as I thought...

"Are you going to just sit and do nothing but watch me all day?" she asked not even bothering to turn around.

I was wrong...

"No...'cause if I play my cards right sooner or later you're gonna leave."

"Hate to burst your bubble but I ain't goin' anywhere"she shot back. Then she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

"Ahh. So the pirate slang has already caught on to you"

"I have no idea what you're talking about" she snorted.

"You know...for a princess you don't really seem to act like one"

"Well I guess you shouldn't believe everything you see. Just because we're royalty doesn't mean we like to be treated as such...isn't that the reason we're here? For your information, I'd like nothing more than to forget about my blood line...except that means forgetting my parents as well...I as much as I try I don't want to forget them...so it's better to cope with this burden rather get rid of it because later, you might find your life worse without keeping it to hold on to..."

" know exactly how you feel..." I sneered. In truth I did know about burdens I didn't want to get rid of for some reason...one was standing right infront of me. But there are others as well...some I couldn't be free of even if I tried...


It's been so long since I've update this one! I am so sorry to all the people I kept waiting...butI do have a life outside of my room...
