Ch. 2

Wohoo! Chapter two… Hey guys, just to let ya'll know, I won't be able to update for the rest of the week. I mean there's this thing for school I've been blowing off and it's due Friday, but I will update next Monday or so! I probably won't be on at all. Keep up the reviews, and do tell me if there's anything I need to improve on.

Starting now…….

The bus of children screeched and all the kids got off including: Naraku, Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, Kagome, Kikyou, and Miroku.

Naraku walked by himself, and listened to everyone else talk to each other. They didn't want to include Naraku. The hardly even wanted to look at him.

He snorted to himself. As if he cared. He turned away from them and headed down the street to the woods. Before he made it a horn honk, was heard in the distance.

He paused and looked at the car. As soon as the driver looked into the heartless child's eyes, the car stopped suddenly, even though the driver hadn't done anything to stop it.

The man in the car noticed that this kid's eyes were not human. They were bloodshot and seemed to have no emotion of empathy or care.

Naraku nudged his backpack more onto his shoulders and left the street, leaving the driver with a broken car. He raced down the path and toward his home.

It was an old cave. It was very mossy and smelled of cold air. Naraku didn't mind it at all. Any normal kid would have despised to have lived there, but not him. He was very pleased, and thought he was fortunate to have somewhere, even if it was just a cave.

He left outside into his domain. He tossed his backpack to the ground and sat on his mat, as he grabbed a vase full of something. He shook it up lightly and grabbed a cup. He continued, as he listened to whatever was in it swish around inside the vase.

He opened the lid and poured a purple substance into the cup. He held it up to his nose and sniffed at it like a curious cat sniffing at a mouse hole.

Purple steam drifted from it and permeated through the cave, making a sweet scent. Naraku brought it to his mouth, tilted his head and drank some of it. He winced in pain as the liquid burned all the way down his throat. He put the cup down and got up. He walked over to a black curtain which looked as it was 50 years old. It was torn all over and was wet from the moist floor of Naraku's home.

He pushed it aside and stepped in. A dim light from his lantern flickered from the wind. He went over to put it out and decided to go to bed.

oooo

"Hey, Toto-sai!" Inuyasha shouted as he ran into his house followed by his elder brother. Inuyasha found his god father sleeping on the couch.

He let out a long sigh. Inuyasha got beside him and put his mouth next to Toto-sai's ear. "Roasted pig!"

The old man opened his eyes quickly and sprang up. "What? Where?... Mmmfff" He began to mumble, "Where am I?"

Inuyasha jumped in front of him. "Parents' Day is this Friday!" He announced. "Will you be my parent?"

Toto-sai rubbed his head, "Why not your real parents… ummm… Sesshomaru?"

"My name is Inuyasha, and my parents died a long time ago, remember?" He sadly squeaked.

"Oh yeah..." the old man scratched his head for a bit longer, "Alright, if it'll make you happy."

Sesshomaru looked at Inuyasha as if saying, "Are you that desperate?" Inuyasha stuck his tongue out at him and went to his room.

Like Naraku, Sesshomaru didn't want to go to the celebration either. He decided he'd just stay out of it and visit his parents' graves. He went up the stairs as well to put his things away.

When he got to the backyard, he saw Inuyasha with a wooden sword in his right hand trying to do some kind of for.

Sesshomaru decided to just lean on the wall and watch him. Many times Inuyasha was unable to do it right and fell. Sesshomaru became tired and decided to get noticed. "The ground just loves you, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha growled at him and his cheeks flushed in embarrassment. When he noticed a cut on his chest through all the dirt, he urged himself not to cry. He held the wooden sword in front of him and kept trying.

Suddenly, Kagome's head popped up behind the fence. Her face glowed with cheer as she smiled at Inuyasha. "What'cha doing?"

Inuyasha bared his teeth. "I have no time for fun; I've got work to do!"

Kagome's smile quickly turned upside down. Her cheeks turned red and she jumped down beside him.

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes and turned to go back into the house.

The girl scolded Inuyasha. He was frightened because he knew no matter how tough he got, Kagome's wrath would always be the scariest things he'd ever encounter. His mind didn't listen to what she was saying. He was worried more of what she might do.

Kagome ended her yelling with the famous last words, "Sit Boy!"

Inuyasha crashed to the ground, and he began to cry. "Serves ya right!" Kagome mumbled . She walked around to the fence and turned back into her good mood. She blushed and apologized for yelling. The way she said it could say she definitely had a little crush on him. Inuyasha was to caught up in his tears to notice.

"See-ya tomorrow, Inuyasha!" She waved and skipped down the street keeping a smile, until her sigh turned it into a self-scolding face. "No why did I do that?" Kagome asked herself, "He probably thinks of me a dork now and definitely hates me."

She looked up to see the sun was setting and grinned peacefully. "I'll just keep trying to make every one of my days the best ones ever!" She skipped childishly down the street, humming a cheerful tune."

oooo

Yay! Hope you like it. Sorry if you find things that don't make sense. I was in Lala Land when I wrote over half of this. Please send feedback. Tell me what you think I should improve on and how I'm doing.
