"Okay let's make sure we have everything needed to cook the cookies!" Serenity suggested as she held up a checklist while Inuyasha called out the name of everything-with the help of Serenity!
"Okay well that's everything!" Serenity said as she made a big check mark on the last needed ingredient.
"Sissy how do you make food out of this?" Inuyasha asked as he looked over at Serenity from the other side of the counter.
Serenity looked up from the list and giggled. The counter was a little high for the little boy. Even on the stool she had provided him all that you could see of him was his nose and up.
Inuyasha's tiny ear's twitched when he heard her melodious laughter, "What is funny sissy?"
Serenity shook her head lightly, "Nothing Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha gave her a curious look but shrugged it off, "What's next sissy?"
"Alright first we need a bowl!" Serenity said as she watched Inuyasha pick up a bowl, walk around the counter and hand it to her.
"Okay then next we need eggs!" Serenity said as she grabbed two eggs from a bowl, "Hold this one for me!" She requested of Inuyasha as she handed him the small white egg.
"Okay we have to crack them and put them in the bowl fro the other contents!" Serenity said as she showed Inuyasha the proper way to crack an egg. Inuyasha looked on in fascination.
"You try Inuyasha!" Serenity said as she dumped egg shells into the trash can. Inuyasha looked from the egg to the bowl then back again. Serenity smiled down at the little boy and watched as he tried to crack the egg but only ended up crushing it in his small hands.
Inuyasha's eyes started to tear up and when Serenity saw this she grew nervous, "It's okay Inuyasha! I've done that plenty of times!" Serenity said as she pulled a spoon out of a draw and proceeded to pick out the pieces of shell from the bowl.
"Really?" Inuyasha asked as he wiped away his tears on his red Kimono.
"Really! Here try this seat!" Serenity said as she grabbed a taller stool, "Maybe this will help!" Now you could see Inuyasha from the chest up. Realizing he was up higher he smiled another toothy smile.
"Okay next we need the flour!" Serenity said as she pulled the bag labeled, 'flour', over to her.
"What kind of flower?" Inuyasha asked as he watched Serenity scoop out a powdery white substance from within the bag with a cup.
"White Flour!" Serenity said as she added the flour to the egg inside of the bowl.
"That's not a flower! That is powder!" Inuyasha said as he leaned over and looked in the bowl. "Flowers are many different colors and they smell good!" Inuyasha said as he snorted. When he did this it caused some of the flower to blow up in his face.
Inuyasha coughed lightly and rubbed his eyes trying to get the powder out of them. Serenity couldn't help but laugh at Inuyasha's face when he finished whipping his eyes. His whole face, excluding some circles around his eyes, had white all over it. He had an annoyed look on his face that just made her want to cuddle him like a stuffed toy. He was just too cute for his own good.
"Inuyasha this is a different kind of flour! This is what you eat not what you pick and use for decoration. When you eat bread you are eating flour!" Serenity said as she handed Inuyasha a spoon.
"Oh!" Inuyasha said as he held the spoon in his hand.
"Now I'm going to measure out the milk while you stir the flour and egg together!" Serenity said as she retrieved the measuring cup from the cabinet.
Inuyasha looked down at the bowl and started stirring while muttering something about flowers and flour. Once Serenity had finished measuring the milk she brought it over and poured it into the bowl.
"Okay now we need some butter!" Serenity said as she cut a small slice of butter and deposited it into the bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
"Then a small amount of Veggie oil!" Serenity said as she picked of the bottle and poured a small amount into the bowl.
Inuyasha listened closely as he continued to stir, "It's getting harder to stir sissy!"
Serenity nodded to Inuyasha, "It's supposed to but don't worry you wont have to stir much longer I've got the final ingredient!"
Inuyasha looked at to what Serenity was referring to, "What is it? Why is it black?"
Serenity's eyes widened, "It's chocolate!"
"Chokalot?" Inuyasha tried to pronounce.
"Chocolate! A sweet treat that no one can resist!" Serenity said as she opened the bag and pulled out a piece of the chocolate, "Chocolate chips to be exact!" She only received a quizzical look from the young boy.
'Man they are really deprived on earth if he's never had chocolate. I thought everyone knew of chocolate!' Serenity thought as she slipped the chocolate chip into Inuyasha's mouth.
As Inuyasha began to chew the food his eyes widened with delight, "Yummy!"
Serenity giggled as she poured the rest of the chocolate chips into the mixture in the bowl, "I knew you'd like it!"
Inuyasha looked in the bowl sadly at having seen all of those sweet delicious treats fall into the sticky mess that they had created.
Serenity saw the look on his face and ruffled his hair lightly, "Don't worry if you loved those chocolate chips then you are sure to love the chocolate chip cookies.
'We've made enough for three nights worth of dessert!' Serenity thought as she plugged in the blender and laid it next to the bowl.
"What's that for?" Inuyasha asked as he eyed the strange object with curiosity.
"This is what we will use to stir the remainder of the ingredients! All we have to do is stick those metal pieces into the mixture and press the red button and it will do the stirring for us!" Serenity said as she walked to the other side of the kitchen and pulled open the cabinet and pulled out a box. Inuyasha kept his eye on the strange object and slowly he let his curiosity get the better of him as he picked up the object with his clawed hand. Turning it every which way, Inuyasha inspected the strange object. Then the bright red button Serenity was talking about caught his attention. Looking from Serenity to the button, Inuyasha wondered if he should press it now or wait. Just like any other little boy would do Inuyasha pressed the button .
Sesshomaru opened the kitchen doors and was met with an odd sort of sight not to mention a messy sight . . . .
"AAAAAAHHHHH!" Inuyasha screamed as he fell from his chair and onto the floor.
Serenity turned on her heel and saw the blender fall into large bowl, " Oh no!"
Suddenly total chaos broke out as the blender started to spray cookie dough all over the entire kitchen. Serenity tried to duck to get out of shot of the cookie dough blast but was a little too slow. The cookie dough hit her in the head causing her to loose her balance and fall on her butt.
Inuyasha was now standing up and trying to run out of the kitchen but the cookie dough on the ground was making it hard for him to stand on his feet.
Serenity sat up and wiped the stick substance from her head and looked around, 'Inuyasha!'
Thinking of a way to get to the terrified boy, Serenity rolled on her front and began to crawl around the counter and to the front of the kitchen. Serenity reached Inuyasha and pulled him into a hug and tried to calm him down.
Soon Inuyasha calmed down and sat down while Serenity crawled over to counter. Using the top of the counter Serenity tried to pull herself up but her heels slipped on the cookie dough causing her to fall on her butt again. "Ow!" Serenity took another deep breath as she started to try to stand up again but then a thought came to her mind. Sitting back down, Serenity pulled off her heels. Looking up, Serenity once again tried to pull herself up using the table. Unfortunately, just when she got halfway up there the bowl of mixture fell on her head. The vibrations of the blender and the cookie dough on the counter had caused it to slide off and hit Serenity in the head. After getting over the pain of the bowl and the blender hitting her, Serenity pulled the bowl off her head and turned off the blender. The only thing left that could be heard was the laughter of Inuyasha.
Serenity turned around and gave him a playful death glare and once again tried to stand up. Serenity had successfully succeeded in standing up this time. Carefully turning around she shot Inuyasha a happy smile and sent him a peace sign. Her happiness at succeeding was soon cut short as the kitchen doors opened and startled the two out of there moment. Thus causing Serenity to lose her footing and go sliding toward the doors of the kitchen on her stomach and hitting the intruder in the feet.
"Ow!" Serenity said as she sat up into a sitting position. Looking up at the intruder Serenity noticed it was Sesshoamru. Smiling sheepishly Serenity waved up at him, "Hello!"
Sesshomaru looked down at the princess with a look of pure confusion. What would the princess of the moon be doing covered in a sticky substance? How in the world could anyone make a mess such as this? Several similar thoughts crossed through is mind.
"Broder!" Inuyasha said as he looked up at Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru tore his gaze from the Princess and turned it to his half-brother, "Inuyasha what is the meaning of this?"
Inuyasha noticed the annoyed tone in his brother's voice and lowered his head sadly, "I'm sorry!"
Sesshomaru suddenly felt a tug at this arm and looked down to see Serenity trying to stand by using his arm as a balance, "Hey don't be so harsh it was an acci-EEEEEPPP" Serenity never got to finish because once again she fell but this time she wasn't alone.
With a thud Serenity fell on her back to the ground with Sesshomaru right on top of her.
A light blush graced Serenity's face when she realized the predicament they were had gotten themselves into, "Um . . . .Sorry!" Serenity said as Sesshomaru stood while pulling her up with him.
Sesshomaru just sent her a small glare before he returned his gaze to Inuyasha, "You need to go clean up!"
Inuyasha nodded and sitting on his knees while pushing himself with his hands, he proceeded to 'scoot' out of the kitchen.
"That was mean!" Serenity said as she began to pull the cookie dough out of her hair.
"He shouldn't have been getting dirty in the first place!" Sesshomaru said as he tried to wipe off the sticky substance from his kimono.
"Oh really?" Serenity asked while sending him a glare of her own.
"Yes really!" Sesshomaru said as he started to walk out of the kitchen.
Serenity glared at his back while bending down and picking up a handful of cookie dough, "Yo FLUFFY!"
Sesshomaru stopped dead in his tracks at the horrific nickname she had called him. Serenity smirked at his reaction as she stood to full height. Sesshomaru turned to glare her down but only received a handful of cookie dough thrown in his face.
A stress vein suddenly made itself known as Sesshomaru wiped the cookie dough off his face and glared at the princess, "Run!"
Serenity's eye's widened as she watched him heading toward her with a handful of cookie dough in his hands, "Hey now Mr. Fluff stay back!" Serenity said as she backed up as far as she could go. Soon she was up to the counter! She had no other place to go. So she did the only thing she could do. Taking a deep breath Serenity dove down to the ground and slid under Sesshomaru by going through his legs. While at the same time causing him to trip and fall into a pile of cookie dough. Standing up Serenity watched as Sesshomaru turned onto his back and glared at her. With a smirk adorning her face Serenity threw another handful of cookie dough at him before she ran out of the kitchen and down the hall.
Sesshomaru caught the oncoming bullet of cookie dough but also caused some of it to splatter into his face, 'She is going to pay!' Sesshomaru thought as a playful challenge flashed across his face. Standing up Sesshomaru made chase to catch up to the hastily retreating form of the princess.
Standing behind one of the pillars as not to be seen, InuYasha giggled at the sight and how briliantly his and his fathers plan worked.
Taking several turns and twists Serenity came upon her garden, 'Perfect!' she thought as she pushed opened the doors and ran inside the dome building.
"Hey Motoki, Bye Motoki!" Serenity said as she ran passed her gardener and toward the maze located in the middle of the garden.
"Um . . .hey!" Motoki said as he watched the cookie dough covered princess run into the forest.
Motoki was about to go back to tending to the roses when he saw the form of the man from earlier that day headed his way. That man was covered in cookie dough as well. 'What has Serenity done now?' Motoki questioned himself as he put away his gardening tools and put away the two growling tigers that seemed to want to tear the oncoming visitor to shreads.
As the man ran past Motoki and into the forest, Motoki noticed the smirk adorned his face. Motoki's let a sly grin cross his face as he headed toward the communication room to call a certain Senshi of Love!
Serenity ran into the maze that she had built during the earlier days of the dome building. 'He'll never find me in here!' Serenity thought as she slowed her pace to a walk so that she could catch her breath. Sitting down on one of the many benches located in the maze she tried to rest before taking off again.
"Princess!" she heard him call from somewhere close.
Serenity jumped to her feet and started to take off running again. After a few twists and turns she stopped to catch her bearings and to see if she had ran in the correct direction.
"Are you tired already princess?" she heard his mocking voice ask coming from her left. Serenity's head snapped in the direction from where the voice came to see Sesshomaru jump over the wall.
Serenity's eyes widened in shock but she didn't stick around for him to see her facial expression. In a blur she was running blindly. She could hear him advancing on her. That's when she realized that he was just toying with her. No matter where she went he would be able to find her because of his advanced senses. One particular one came into mind-SMELL! Serenity stopped dead in her tracks and turned to the left.
'There is a water fall up ahead!' She thought to herself as she continued to run.
Sesshomaru followed her every stop along the way, 'She's not as stupid as I thought.'
Serenity came unto the falls, which split the road into two directions. 'This is perfect!' she thought as she dove into the cold water.
Sesshomaru's advanced hearing picked up on the splash that she had made, 'Time to get serious!' he thought as he picked up his speed and was soon met with the sight of the falls. Sniffing the air, Sesshomaru tried to pick up on her scent but the water had washed it away. 'Which way?' Sesshomaru thought to himself. Suddenly he remembers a saying his father use to always use, when in doubt always go right. That and he remembered reading about the mazes that human kings would make for their enjoyment. Usually the right was right! Running at a full pace he went to the left.
Serenity swam to the top after she sensed his presence leave, 'He is quite smart!' she thought as she pulled herself up out of the water and headed in the direction from whence she came. 'He has a very quick and calculating mind, but not quick enough!' Serenity thought as she made her way to the opening of the maze. Looking back at the entrance of the maze, she smirked at the thought of tricking him.
"What kept you Princess?"
Serenity's body went rigid as she heard the oh so familiar voice, 'How?'
Suddenly Serenity's found Sesshomaru standing a mere inch away from her, "Not bad for a princess who has never been in a very dangerous situation."
Serenity gasped, he was insulting her in her own home. "How dare you!" Serenity started but was interrupted with grabbing her by the wrist and lifting her up off the ground.
"If I remember correctly Princess! You are the one who started this came of cat and mouse, and like always the cat wins." Sesshomaru said as he teased her.
Serenity stood, well actually hung, there with her mouth agape.
"I'll take your silence as an agreement. Remember you are the one who through that sticky substandce-"
"Cookie dough!" she corrected him with a sarcastic smirk.
Sesshomaru's eybrow twitched at her attitude toward the situation, "Who through the cookie dough at me in the first place!" he said as he released her hands.
Serenity, not expecting to be released, fell on her butt with a thump.
"Hey I did you a favor!" Serenity said as she stood up and wiped the dirt off her butt.
"Oh really?" Sesshomaru asked as he looked down at her. He needed to hurry up and get out of there. Her soaking wet dress was slightly see through and was clinging to her in all the right places that were causing some problems for him. 'Why can't she just admit to losing this argument and leave?'
"Yes really! You need to lighten up and live a little!" Serenity said as she wringed out the water from her hair and dress to the best of her ability. "You are too serious! Besides," Serenity started as she took a step toward Sesshomaru while taking her finger and running it up his cheek causing the cookie dough to go on her finger, "It was funny!" she said while sticking her cookie dough covered finger in his mouth.
Sesshomaru's eyes widened lightly but he let his tongue lick off the foreign food from her finger, which sent shivers down her back.
"See not only did you have fun but you also got to taste something new!" Serenity said as she pulled her finger away and started to walk away.
Sesshomaru watched as she left and praised the gods that she left when she did. Much longer and his inner demon would have came out and had its wicked way with her.
"Why does she evoke these . . . . feelings?" Sesshomaru asked himself aloud while forcing the word, 'feelings' out of his mouth. Sighing mentally he walked out of the small paradise green house and toward his room.
He never did notice the three smiling figures hidden behind the bushes, "I told you they would make a cute couple!" whispered one of the figures.
"Why are we whispering? They're gone now?" another asked.
The three looked at each other before shrugging and trying to get out of the bushes.
"Ouch! Watch it my arm is connected you know!" one said.
"Sorry!" the one responsible for causing the ouch responded.
"Why do we get ourselves into such messes?"
The three shrugged as the fell face first into the dirt after finally pulling themselves free of the bush.
