Disclaimer: Me no own Inuyasha… now that that's been said…

Soon, after that Sesshomaru walked up to the brawl and pulled a flailing Ceres off of the bloody body of Koga.

"I can't leave you alone for a second, can I? You'd go and kill everyone in sight!" Sesshomaru shouted.

"I didn't ask you to be Koga's body guard," said an irritated Ceres.

"I really resent that! I don't need some stupid dog to protect me, that's what I've got claws and a brain for!" yelled an angry Koga.

"Are you calling me stupid?" asked Sesshomaru.

"Please, not another fight!" pleaded Ellie.

"Lord Sesshomaru can we come out?" asked Jakken coming out from behind a tree.

"YES!" shouted an overzealous Kagome, "Now, no fighting while Rin's around."

"Fine, whatever, like we're going to listen to that" everyone mumbled.

"Ceres!" Rin shouted, running toward the dog-demon "I missed you so much!"

"You saw me just last night," Ceres said, laughing and hugging the child.

"It felt like two millennia," Rin said.

"How about we have some breakfast?" Miroku asked.

"With my fool of a brother, Inu-Yasha? No way!" Sesshomaru said.

"I'm not really hungry," Ceres said.

"That's a first for you Ceres," Akuzmi said to Ceres.

"Akuzmi, sit boy!" Ceres said, resting one hand on her hip and pointing her finger at Akuzmi.

"Please, not in front of the REAL Inu-Yasha," Minamino wailed.

"Inu-Yasha," Ceres said threateningly.

"Darn it, Kagome!" Minamino said throwing herself to the ground. "Ouch!" she said. Standing up and dusting the dirt off of her clothing, "The ground in Feudal Era Japan is hard!"

"See Kagome, I'm not the only one who thinks the ground is hard, so can you lay off the 'sit' a bit?" Inu-Yasha inquired.

"Fine," Kagome said defeated. She walked inside that jut and looked expectantly for the rest to follow. They all followed Kagome's example except for Koga, Akuzmi, Ellie, Ceres, Rin, Sesshomaru, and Jakken.

"Are you coming?" Ellie asked. She looked expectantly at Ceres who was looking worriedly towards Sesshomaru.

"I'm not going into that just with my sorry excuse for a half brother," said Sesshomaru.

"Who in the world invited you?" shouted Inu-Yasha from inside the hut.

Ignoring Inu-Yasha's remark, Ceres went on, "I want to go for a walk anyways and I don't know them too well."

"You turncoat you don't know Sesshomaru any more than you know Inu-Yasha!" shouted Akuzmi.

"Rin you look famished," Ceres said, grabbing the child by the shoulders and pointing her in the direction of the hovel. "Go ask Kagome for something to eat."

"Okay," she said running toward the hut.

"Hey, Miroku, where are you going?" Ellie asked chasing after Miroku, who had just walked out of the hovel.

"To the bathroom," he replied, confusion rising on his face as she continued to follow him. He picked up the speed moving to a swift walk, a trot, and then a run as Ellie continued to follow him. "You know I think Kagome could use some help with the food."

Taking advantage of everyone's departure, Sesshomaru demanded that Jakken leaves.

"But, Lord Sesshomaru!" Jakken wailed.

Sesshomaru glared at him and Jakken ran off in fear of what Sesshomaru might do.

"You want to go for a walk?" Koga asked Akuzmi uncomfortably.

"No, and especially not with you," said Akuzmi.

Ceres then stomps on Akuzmi's foot extremely hard and whispered, "Akuzmi!"

"Alright, I'll go with you for a walk," said Akuzmi, deflated.

"Hey, Sesshie do you want to go for a walk, too?" asked Ceres.

"Don't call me 'Sesshie,'" he replied, showing his most well known attributes, his bitterness.

"So?" Ceres asked.

"Sure," Sesshomaru replied.

The four started on their walk. Looking at all the exotic plants, listening to the caws of the predatory birds circling around in the sky; watching lily pads wallow in a pond. Ceres began to imagine a fawn learning to walk; wavering to a fro and falling once more. She burst out into laughter and they all looked at her like she was psycho. There was a rustling in the bushes, they all stopped and listened. All for of them began to catch scent of something, something wearing the pelt of a monkey.

Ceres looked at Nuraku and said, "Nuraku!"

Nuraku said, "That's my name, don't wear it out."

Sesshomaru, Ceres, and Akuzmi got ready to attack or defend, whichever was necessary. Koga then took a battle stance. All four of them charged into battle. With the inclusion of Nuraku the five of them began to fight, fur was being pulled, blows were thrown, but they were always parried (A/N: Big Word.). When all of a sudden, different from the normal sound of metal against flesh was the sound of metal against metal.

"What was that for?" Akuzmi shouted.

"What are you asking me for? It was your entire fault and you know it!" screamed Ceres.

"If you're going to talk that way to me, then let's take it out on each other. Wait, we already are, let's just fight!" Akuzmi said.

"That's putting it bluntly," said Koga.

"I thought we were fighting," Nuraku shouted.

Suddenly, Inu-Yasha head obnoxious voices shouting words like 'baka,' 'bonzai,' and many other sayings that middle school, American fan girls would shout and he could instantly tell that the two friends were bickering once more.

He grabbed his tetsaiga and ran off. Within moments he was at the site. With one blast of his tetsaiga he was able to kill the already wounded Nuraku incarnate. Inu-Yasha was at the peak of his strength and he wasn't going to waste this time. He turned toward Sesshomaru, wielding the sword and saying the word "Wind scar" the dust began to pick up. There was a blast that knocked Sesshomaru into a tree and e was knocked out cold.

"Sesshomaru!" she shouted abruptly awakening. Small beads of sweat were making their slow descent down her face.

Ellie looked at her and rolled her eyes, while everyone else in the class began to giggle.

"Hey Ceres, if you want to sleep in class, try not to wake up shouting 'Sesshomaru'" Akuzmi said looking up from her religion book.

"So, it was all a dream?" Ceres asked.

"I guess so. Now back to what love is not," The teacher's voice began to drone on once more.

Ceres dug into her pocket and pulled out a necklace that had feathers and stones that were blue whit and red that Rin had made for her, before she went back with Mina. She had told her that it was custom to give a feather necklace to the bride of a Lord.

"What's that? It's ugly," Ellie said, looking at it, pulling it out of her hand and throwing it in the trash. Ceres gave her a cold look and at the end of class she got the necklace out of the trash and put it on.

Sorry about the three month hiatus but I had written on my dad's laptop and I couldn't find the printer cord or a floppy so I had to e-mail it to myself, and it isn't like my dad has an internet connection at his house. (At least it's not wireless.) But now that this is done, I'll put up Akuzmi's sequel to this story which I might name 'Love and… Stuff' first she needs to send it to me. And then there's the sequel that we brainstormed over the summer about the guys of YuYu (Love and… Stuff) and the guys of InuYasha (Love and Extreme Dislike) meet, followed by the introductions of our fav characters from Furuba, FY (Goes along with Meeting A Bandit), POTO, and a few other things. We'll also add more YuYu Characters into the story later. Then there's the story about how we get back home and they bother us 24/7, which I'm writing. And finally, one that's already out and on 13 chapters or something like that, Email And Anime Just Don't Mix, which is all of the E-mails we send each other about the guys. OHH and you get to learn Da Rulz in one of the stories, I don't know which. But keep an eye out for those, and read my other stories that are already out. Hoped you liked it, and I would love to hear anyone's ideas on sequels to this.

Until Next Time, Ceres OUT!
