Chapter 3

Problem

RECAP:

"Hmm… cough hope I didn't bug you or anything," said a chubby man. "NO WAY!" Kagome shrieked. Then man was old with a white beard and mustache, he wore all red and black boots. Yup! It was, "Santa Clause!" Kagome shrieked again. "Who? And can you please stop doing that little squeaky noise?" Inuyasha asked covering his ears. "It's Santa Claus. During this time of the month people celebrate a holiday called Christmas…" Kagome was about to continue on when Santa interrupted him.

Santa took his hand form his side and raised it. Then he slightly waved his hand when magical little stars appeared. One hit Miroku, then Sango plus Shippo. Nothing happened to them but they were just in deep thought. Inuyasha tried to dodge the star. Then 5 more ganged up on him and he was hit. Then he went into deep thought. After 3 minutes everyone, but Inuyasha, knew all about Christmas. "Thanks for saving some time by telling them, I think it would have taken a while to explain," Kagome said gracefully bowing. "No problem, but I think the man your smitten with," Santa said, while Kagome tried to hide her blush. Then he continued, "Has a small brain, and is stupid, dimwitted since it seems the star is trying its best to try and explain it to him but he just won't under stand. HO HO HO!" Santa said, jiggling his stomach during ho's.

Finally, after probably of an hour staring at Inuyasha, he understood, ½ of it! "Inuyasha, why are you so dumb," Kagome asked. "I'm not the star was stupid, it didn't remember anything!" Inuyasha lied. They looked so funny just arguing about a little star. Miroku and Sango couldn't help but laugh. Shippo had awoken when Kagome had shrieked Santa Clause when she saw him, and he was pondering. "Santa… Have I been a good boy for Christmas?" Shippo asked. "Why yes you have! You to Sango and Kagome… but," Santa said while thinking about what Miroku and Inuyasha were. "Miroku, I'll let your actions pass this time but not next time so you're a good boy," Santa said still thinking about what to do with Inuyasha. "Well… uh…. Um…. Uh…." He kept saying. "OLD MAN! Just hurry up with it!" Inuyasha said. Kagome gave him a mean look. "NAUGHTY!" Santa said. "Hehehehe," Miroku teased. "But since you fight for good and try to save humans and such ill let you be on the good list," Santa Clause said. Inuyasha just stuck his tongue out at Miroku. They just kept acting like little kids, Sango and Kagome just laughed.

They truly hadn't had this much fun in along time. It seemed so happy and bright for once. "Well no that's over with I've come here to fulfill your wishes. I think that people who risk their lives for others and hope fro each others well being should be rewarded. First is Kagome's wish. She wished that all of you and a few other friends of the feudal era could come to her time for Christmas, and New Years," Santa then took a breath and went on, "That also fulfills all your wishes as well." "What are you talking about?" Kagome asked confused. "Well Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku all wished that whatever you wished should come true," Santa said sort of showing he wished he was eating cookies with milk.

"AWE! You guys are to kind," Kagome said hugging Sango then heading towards Inuyasha. He blushed, yet again, when she hugged him. Kagome didn't really notice it but just went and gave Miroku a slight hug type thing knowing he would go for her ass. A big tornado of snow appeared out of nowhere before.

Kagome awoke in an area of snow. It was a dessert, but instead of sand it was all snow. She felt pretty cold. She started to walk in the direction of the wind, which made her hair fly swiftly through the air. When she decided to turn around to go with the wind but then the wind some how changed directions. Then Inuyasha awoke to find himself also in a dessert snow. He didn't feel that cold. He then sniffed the air and picked up Kagome's scent. He ran in the direction and saw her battling the winds. He tried to yell out to her but no words would come out. It was like the audio of his voice was off. He said all he could, but none would come out. When he said 'I' it came out but nothing else. Then he figured there was something he was suppose to say to make his voice come back. "I," Inuyasha yelled. Kagome heard and turned but found only to be pushed back by the wind. The wind hardened and she was hit against a mountain of more snow. 'Kagome,' Inuyasha tried to say, but it didn't come out. He ran to her. She then opened her eyes and saw him.

He had already taken off his top red shirt and put it over Kagome. "Th-thanks," Kagome said with a frozen voice, yet it still sounded like her sweet voice. "I," Inuyasha, yet again, was only able to say. "Inuyasha, I know this is not the time to say this but I was scared and I'm so happy you're here and I… I," Kagome stopped. She wasn't sure, should she tell him. "I LOVE YOU," Inuyasha said. Kagome gasped. 'Did he really just say that,' Kagome thought. 'What! Did I just say that?' Inuyasha thought. "Inuyasha I never knew you…" Kagome said.
