Hey guys. I know it's another short chapter, but hey... it was only to "Not unless you count yourself one." Bet your glad I added to it, huh? Love ya guys. You know the drill. I don't own Inuyasha.

"Hn. Who else has hair like me?" Sesshoumaru's smirk found itself, while staring down at the girl whom… He stopped, woman, whom had helped him. She dropped the covers while putting a nonchalant look upon her face and propped her hands on her hips, "Inuyasha." "His hair is much shorter then this Lord Sesshoumaru and this Lord Sesshoumaru does not have idiotic fuzzy ears atop of this Lord Sesshoumaru's head." They've had this argument before, it ended with laughter, mostly Kagome's--and maybe some Rin and Shippo. "Well, Lord Sesshoumaru has a tail, a fuzzy one at that! And it smells of a Rain Forest!" She was absolutely glowing, his inner beast snarled. Something was off, his beast had never reacted towards Kagome like this before.

He turned away from her. "What has happened? Why have you transformed?" His toned changed from jovial to an icy harsh demand. She looked to the ground. "My grandfather thinks it has something to do with the time travel. I am not certain what has truly brought this upon myself." She knew the red tape, she knew something truly happened. She looked up and grazed his form over. She did something didn't she? His right arm was limp by his side but his left hand was tapping on the top of the drawer. She tilted her head. "Your arm, you didn't make another deal with some evil demon did you?"

"Not unless you count yourself as one."

He couldn't keep his breath up. He had been traveling for hours, actually, in all honestly, it may have been a day or more. He fell, and he fell hard.

About two hours later, Sango and Miroku came upon said hanyou. "I knew he couldn't keep that pace up, I swear he's trying to kill himself." "Well love, wouldn't you if I were in humongous amounts of trouble?" "That is different Miroku, and you know it. He doesn't love Kagome, he can barely stand her. It's all about power. All of it." Miroku sighed, "We should make camp, it doesn't look like he's going to be waking up anytime soon." "Alright, but we need to keep a close eye on him. Something is up." "Agreed."

He had left her sitting on the bed. That jack ass. Why would he have ever changed? He's always been cold, but I thought I broke through that damn ice prick. Maybe he can't stand me as a demon. What am I thinking! He hates humans not demons! He didn't hate me, well at first he did, but he didn't a week ago. He does now… what's so wrong with me?

"It doesn't do one good to be in one place for so long; I thought you would have wondered the palace by now." She nearly fell off the bed. "Oh, didn't see you come in Sesshoumaru." "Hn. Lord Sesshoumaru." She snorted and rolled her eyes, "when did we go back to formalities?" "When you became demon and earned a class for yourself, or rather, will earn a class for yourself." She was starting to get angry, "Why can't I just be me and you be you! Why does this" she started to make pointing actions at her and Sesshoumaru, "have to happen? Why do you have to go back to being all 'Mister High and Mighty'?" "It would be wise for you to lower your voice. One does not speak to a lord as such." "I don't give a damn what you think I should do, or what anyone thinks I should do. I'm going to do what I need to do; if I need to yell at you, I will do so!" Her hands were set on her hips and she was radiant. He turned and started to walk away, "If you do not wish to talk to me in an adult manner, I will treat as a child. Being a child I will give you 'time out.' Confinement to this room for a day." The doors slammed behind him and she heard the lock click.

Two hallways later, Sesshoumaru walked into his office; the next moment he had to cover his ears. Her scream was so forceful, if he didn't his ear drums would have busted for sure. "Hn. She shall make a fine mate for sure." "Master, did you say something?" Jaken was stammering, did his master actually say what he think he said? "Jaken, dispose yourself out of my presence. I was not talking to you. Go fetch Rin and let her 'pretty you up'." "Yes master. Right away master."

Review and love me.
