Disclaimer: I don't own Inu-Yasha and I never will so stop it already will ya.

Author's Note: Alright since both Sesshomaru's and Ryuukitsu's are so long I am going to cut them down to little nicknames.

And one other thing, Kagome is kinda gonna be a little bit of a flirt in this, I mean with two hot guys who wouldn't be?

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH yeah:

Ryuukitsu: he is kinda a darker colored version of Yoko Kurama, he has black fur with kinda fire designs on his tail and ears. Sorry about that.

Chapter Five

Three days had passed since Kagome had teamed up with Sesshomaru and Ryuukitsu, she had since gone through five more changes and was currently in a cat form watching both of her companions argue about which way to go.

"Look, Sess, if we go east then we will have gone in a complete circle and most likely run into those damn birds of paradise again, so I say we go north!" the irritated kitsune shouted.

"And I say we go east as to avoid the more heavily male populated areas to the north, remember who our companion is." the demon lord countered glancing over to where Kagome was sunning herself on a large boulder.

Ryuukitsu also turned to watch Kagome and mentally agreed that she should be kept away from other males, for their health.

"Look, my friend, all I'm saying is that we go in a different direction than what either one of us would go so that we aren't followed." Ryu argued stalking over to where Kagome was laying and plopped right down beside

her.

Sesshomaru growled in annoyance as he also stalked over to the boulder and sat on the other side of the amused cat girl and began to think about everything that was going on.

'I cant believe this female is able to make me do anything, as if I was only a pup!' Sess thought running over the past few days in his head and grimced mentally at all the things that he had done, that he would never do if he were with his other companions.

'But at least I'm not groveling.' he thought laughing out loud at Ryu's small perdicament.

"Please Kagome, I said I was only joking, I really am very sorry." the kitsune pleaded resting his head on Kagome's lap giving her his best version of a puppy dog look.

"That look wont work on me Ryu, I told you not to follow me and not only did you that, you came rushing out of the bushes like a mad man scaring me half to death." she tossed back, her tail twitching madly.

"Look I accept responsibility for the maniac part, but it was Sess that sent me to look for you in the first place." Ryu explained pointing at the ridge dog demon.

The annoyed cat demon turned to stare at the unresponsive lord and decided that it was time to have some fun with him and relieve some tension at the same time, if her plan worked the way she wanted it to.

"Fine since I'm not going to get any straight answers from dog boy over there, I might as well go for a quick run." she decided hopping down from the boulder and walking away as if she didn't have a care in the world.

"Hold on right there, you cant do that, do you know how many male demons are out there who wouldn't give a second thought to your true species and mate with you!" Sess explained jumping in front of Kagome. (cg: jealousy is such a pretty sight.=P)

Smiling Kagome gave Sess a once over and decided that he also need to relieve some tension and lighten up at the same time.

"Well then why don't you try and stop me, catch me and I won't cause anymore trouble." Kagome bargained giving him her most innocent smile, causing both distrust and lust to run through his mind.

"And if I don't catch you?"

"Then you cant send Ryu to spy on me whenever I go to take a bath."

Sesshomaru looked at the smiling woman in front of him before shifting his gaze to his friend who was watching them with a huge grin and dancing eyes, laughing at the predicament Sess had got himself in and the audacity of Kagome.

"I have only one condition to those terms, if I feel you are in danger then I can send Ryu to watch you."

Kagome thought over his terms and suddenly gave him the most wicked smile he had ever seen on her before and turned to give Ryu a most playful smile.

"Ok, but if he doesn't come back right away its not my fault." she drawled sending Ryu another glance this time more seductive.

Sesshomaru chocked back a cough and turned to look at his friend once more only to find him as shocked as he felt.

"To satisfy my curiosity, why wouldn't he come back with you?" Sess asked already knowing the answer, but wanting to hear it in her own words.

"Cause he would be to exhausted to even get up." she explained calmly walking into the forest as the two men gapped at her retreating back, both awed by her audacity.

"Sess I do believe that we have thoroughly driven her insane or to the brink of it." Ryu finally commented as he regained his senses.

"Yes, but I believe that little vixen is up to something." Sess murmured waving to his friend and walking after Kagome, thinking of all the things she could be trying.

From the treetops, the cat in question watched in amusement as Sesshomaru tried his best to locate her and failing miserably.

'Sorry Sess, but my miko powers allow me to hide my scent from even the most powerful of demons.' she thought to herself trying to contain her laughter as she watched the powerful lord go around in circles trying to catch even the briefest hint of her scent.

'Well I guess its time to get the games underway.'

Jumping down and landing right behind Sess and coughing lightly to catch his attention, she gave him her most disarming smile, all the while plotting her next move.

"Now its time to play our game, all you have to do is catch me and you win." Kagome stated before running off into the bushes leaving a very confused demon in her wake.

Sesshomaru waited for a few minutes before sprinting off after the little cat, hoping the chase would lift his spirits and give him an edge over the feisty feline.

The sound of soft breathing stopped him in his tracks making him pay closer attention to his surroundings, he finally was able to focus in on the breathing and made his way to the large section of bushes to his right all the while smirking.

'It seems you were able to give yourself away in the end little cat.' he thought pushing the leaves aside quickly only to find Ryu tied and gagged looking at him in despair.

"Ryu where is she and how did she catch you?" he asked untying the sheepish kitsune.

"She came back to the clearing muttering something under her breath and when I leaned down to figure out what she was saying, she pounced on me."

Sesshomaru sat down next to Ryu and began to think about what Kagome was up to and if Ryu was going to be her target again, when a playful voice cut through his thoughts.

"You know boys, if ya sit there for too long you might start growing leaves and plant roots."

Looking up both men found the girl they were both thinking about hanging upside down in the tree above them making ridiculous faces at them.

"It would take a lot longer then that for Sess at least." Ryu joked laying down.

"Our game is not done little cat, do you wish to quit already?" Sess asked raising to his feet once more after sending his little challenge out.

Kagome stopped pestering Ryu when she heard the distinct challenge in his voice and decided that she could do with a little bit more fun now that she was all worked up.

"Alright, but this time I wont play any jokes." she promised walking up to her companion holding out her hand.

Sess nodded his head at her promise and shook her hand for appearance sake and gave her a small smile that sent shivers of excitement down her spine.

'Why am I falling for him,' she thought running through the trees once more,' I mean he's tried to kill me so many times, mostly to get back at Inu-Yasha.'

Stopping by a small stream Kagome sat down to think about all the times she had run into Sesshomaru before now and began to see a small pattern forming in her mind.

'All those times he kinda avoided throwing any attacks in my direction, like he didn't want me hurt, I'm so confused!'

Frustrated Kagome let out a small scream and laid out completely on the ground forgetting that she was supposed to be hiding for the very dog demon that she was thinking about.

"That man is so frustrating!!" she screamed once again at the top of her lungs louder than before.

"Really and here I was thinking the exact opposite." an amused male voice murmured in her ear.

Before Kagome could fully turn around, she was grabbed and crushed against a well defined chest, turning beet red in the process.

"You are driving he to the brink of insanity and beyond." Sess added before kissing Kagome with every fiber of his body causing her to almost melt in his arms.

"Please Sess, don't make me choose now, I have to test all three of my suitors before I choose." Kagome pleaded a bit breathless as she squirmed in the demon lords embrace.

"I know Ryu is one, but who is the third suitor?"

"I am dog breath!" an angry voice announced cutting through the tension, causing Sesshomaru to glance up surprised to see who the intruder was.

"Kouga."
