Chapter 8: The New Moon is Useful For Once, and Kagome, Sango, and Shippou Go Shopping!

InuYasha was extremely agry at Kagura for hurting his girlfriend, and potential mate for life, so badly. InuYasha moved Kagome back to the floor and was found staring up at the sky; the next day was the new moon.
With Kagome's condition and InuYasha's next-day bad luck, there was no telling of what may happen next.
InuYasha couldn't help but want to kill Kagura. He knew that Kagome wouldn't let him go, because his powers were to be lost for day, but the more he waited, the more Kagura got away with hurting Kagome.

Day Comes

"In.. Inu.. Yasha? Wake up.. It's mornin'." Kagome whispered. "Why must I always have to wake you up?" Kagome shoved InuYasha off to the side, and he awoke with a snarl.
"Why'd you do that, Kag-GO-me?" InuYasha said, and ephizized the "go" in her name.
"Cause I love ya." Kagome said as she kissed him softly on the lips.
"Well, in that case," InuYasha kissed Kagome back on the lips, "I love you, too"

Kaede's Hut

"I love this food, Kaede-jiji!" Sango said.
"Heh, ha! Thank you, Sango-san, it is good food, eh?" Kaede laughed.
"Thank you for this food, Kaede!" Shippou said.
Kaede smiled to Shippou.
"What is in this soup, Kaede-chan?" Sango asked.
"Well, Sango, I made this soup with old Youkai eyes, the heart of a frog, and some herbs." Kaede replied, taking a sip out of the soup.
Miroku's eyes widened and Sango quirked an eyebrow, "Then WHY did you give us this, Kaede?" Sango asked.
Kaede winked and looked over to Shippou. He was shivering and his eyes were widened and started to rock back and forth.
"Aye, Shippou, ye were just joking." Kaede said, snickering.
Shippou was still in shock while Kagome and black-haired InuYasha walked in, hand-in-hand.
"Well, good morning to you two." Kaede said.
"Good morning to you, Kaede." Kagome said.
"Kagome, are you feeling better?" Miroku asked.
"Yeah, a little bit better." Kagome replied.
There was an akward dead silence in the room; nobody had said anything after that.
Shippou looke around in confusion, and Kagome stood very impatiently.
Miroku broke the tension; "So, uh, Kagome? Yes, Kagome! Would you like me to put some sutras to ward-off any Youkai tonight?" Kagome gestured her head and eyes to InuYasha who stood in the hut with his hand on the sheath of Tetsuaiga.
"I just thought.." Miroku was interupted by Kagome.
"Oh, i was thinking that Sango and Shippou might want to come back to my own time, and we could do some baby, us, shopping?" Kagome asked InuYasha.
"Yeah, that sounds okay. InuYasha and I can work on strenghtening our defences while you are gone." Miroku said happily.
Kagome giggled and smiled and looked up at InuYasha with glee. InuYasha looked back and smiled, too.

In InuYasha Forest

"Okay. So.. Shippou? Are you sure that you wanna come along? The era I live in is a LOT different than this one." Kagome asked.
"Oh, im ok with it, Kagome. I will be fine. Are you sure that no one will notice my tail, though, Kagome?" Shippou asked, concerned.
"Hey, i think that you guys should stop worrying about this. Now, where are we going to shop?" Sango said.
"Probably a store that we can get you guys some other clothing. Your kimono is beautiful Sango, but we only wear those on special occasions. So, we'll find you a uniform like mine so that no one will think different of you. Oh! You should wear your hair up... Maybe some cute guys'll notice you!" Kagome laughed. "Oh, and Shippou, you should get a little outfit like... Hmmm... I think you'll look good in some of Souta's sorta clothes"
"Cool! I can't wait, Kagome!" Shippou said, excited.
Kagome, Shippou, and Sango all hopped into the well and were at Kagome's. Luckily, Kagome's mom wasn't home at the time, and neither was Grandpa. Souta was at school, and so he wasn't either.
Sango and Shippou were looking around very dumbfoundedly and walked over to the Sacred Tree of Ages.
"Kagome? Is this the"
"Yes, Sango, the tree InuYasha was bounded to when Kikyo shot him there. Kinda sad and cool at the same time, eh?" Kagome said, and stared blankly at it. "Whatever. Let's just get to the stores." Kagome said.
"Oh, Sango! You'd look great in this!" Kagome exclaimed while pulling out a sailor's uniform like the one she had on, except it was black and pink, instead of green and red. "Like"
"Dang! That's cute! Houshi-sama will DIE when he sees me in this!" Sango said, eyes glowing.
"Uhm, Kagome? What.. um.. about.. me?" Shippou asked coyly(meaning shyly.
"Oh, you little cutie! You can wear this!" Kagome pulled out a black tee- and a pair of tan kaikis. "Oh, you'll look so cute in this! Plus, it'll cover up that bushy tail of yours while were in this era. Oh, by the way guys," Kagome whispered, "No one here besides my family knows about me going back to your era and such. So, keep it on the low. Kay?" Kagome said, and thew Sango and Shippou in the desssing rooms to change. "Hey, cashier? I want to ring these up so that they can wear these outta here. Can i do that? Got money." Kagome brought the tags from the clothing she picked out for Sango and Shippou and rang them up, and they walked out all spiffy-like.
"Sango, you look hot. Oh, i think that we should get some new clothes for me, too, cuz these ones are gettin a little snug-- if you know what i mean." Kagome said, and winked at Sango. "I'm gettin heavier, too. Oh, not to be all complainy and spotlight on me, but my stomach is feeling a LOT better"
"That's good, Kagome. Thanks for the new clothes, too." Shippou said.
"Yeah, maybe i could get away with going to your school for a day!" Sango said.
They all laughed and headed back for the well, and went back to the Feudal Era.
