Uh…hi again? Sorry for taking so long, my intent was to update on the one year anniversary of this story being published, but you can see how well that went. Exams…followed by spring break…followed by a shitload of papers/projects. Yeah, I've been kind of busy. Well, this chapter is one a whole lot of you have been waiting for. Hope you enjoy!

Mind ReaderChapter 30: Sayonara, Secrecy
oOoOoOoOoOo
Inuyasha glanced hesitantly at his half-brother. For the first time in his life he was scared of Sesshoumaru. Frightened. Terrified. You name it, Inuyasha was it. He was afraid that even if he just let out an innocent sneeze Sesshoumaru would snap and maul him then and there. Of course it probably had a lot to do with the fact that the great demon lord was still currently in the possession of two flowery pigtails.
It didn't matter that they had come upon the fuming demon and pleased miko over 30 minutes ago. Nope, the pigtails were still firmly in place. Sesshoumaru had tried to unsuccessfully take them off three times now. Every time his hand got within six inches of his hair a 'beg' hit him. And the third time Kagome threatened to cut off a foot of hair each time he tried to take them off.
At that point Inuyasha, and the other innocent bystanders, thought Sesshoumaru's head would blow off. The demon's face went bright red with anger and his hands slowly clenched and unclenched in an effort to reign in some of his rage. No one knew how it he did it, but Sesshoumaru remained in control of his emotions and simply set his lips in a grim line and stalked off.
He had been at least 20 feet ahead of everyone else since then. And no one was brave, or dumb, enough to get within 20 feet of him. They could almost feel the waves of anger emanating from his body. If Inuyasha and Kouga gave into their canine instincts both would have been running in the opposite direction with their tails between their legs.
Well, no one was brave/dumb enough except for the girl who had put the dog demon into his foul mood.
Inuyasha almost jumped in shock when he felt Kagome brush by him. She was about to enter the 'I wish to die' territory.
You've got to be shitting me. She's going…in there?
No! How is she supposed to be my woman if she gets smashed to bits by Sesshoumaru?
Kagome gave both the panicking males a cheerful smile. "I'm going to go talk to Sesshoumaru. You guys may want to stay back here though."
You don't have to tell me twice. I'm not getting anywhere near Sesshoumaru when he's like this.
Kagome rolled her eyes when she was facing away from Inuyasha. How quick he was able to push her out on her own.
"Um, Kagome?" called out Sango.
"Yeah?"
"Uh…good luck?"
You'll definitely need it.
Kagome shot Sango a thumbs-up sign. "I'll be fine. After all, the rosary's on my side!" Without another word to her worried and frightened friends she entered the forbidden zone.
No you don't you damn wench. Don't you even think of coming any closer. I swear I'll kill you. My poison could kill you in an instant.
Kagome smiled amiably at the back of Sesshoumaru's head and sped up to catch up with him. When she drew abreast of him she slapped his arm good-naturedly. "How's it going Sesshoumaru?"
Better if I could kill you. Actually, anyone would do by this point."But Sesshoumaru! I was doing you a favor! Your hair must make you all hot and sweaty so I was tying it back for you," replied Kagome innocently.
"Do you take me for a fool?" asked Sesshoumaru dryly. "This was your idea for your petty revenge. For what I still don't understand."
"A. Disrupting me and Inuyasha last night. B. Having dirty thoughts. C. Voicing dirty thoughts. D. Being stuck up. E. Being arrogant. Shall I continue?"
"If you truly thought you were doing me a favor there are many less…degrading…ways of tying back hair," said Sesshoumaru, completely ignoring Kagome's reasoning.
"Can I cut it?"
"NO!" shouted Sesshoumaru vehemently. He immediately calmed back down, slightly embarrassed at his lack of control. But he couldn't help it. He liked his hair. "If you want to destroy someone's hair do it to my pathetic hanyou brother. He's already a disgrace to the family."
"To the family, huh," commented Kagome. "So that means…you?"
Sesshoumaru sighed softly. "I am the demon lord of the western lands. Everything I do reflects back on my lands. Unfortunately since Inuyasha is from the same bloodline as my own his acts also reflect back on my lands."
"Well if he's such a 'disgrace' to you and your rule why don't you do something about it?"
Smirking, Sesshoumaru said, "have all the times I tried to kill him slip past you?"
Kagome scoffed. "You know, I think you were never really aiming to kill him. After all, there were times you could but didn't. You were testing him, weren't you? Helping him get stronger by acting like you wanted to kill him."
Sesshoumaru stared at the girl, completely flabbergasted at her gall of saying something so stupid. Kagome continued, unabashed.
"You know Sesshoumaru, you truly aren't a bad person. In fact, to me you seem good and honorable. But why do you hide behind your cold and indifferent face all the time? Why do you like to pretend to be a cold-hearted killer? Are you sca…"
A taloned hand encircling her neck abruptly cut off Kagome, sharp nails dangerously close to piercing her skin. Her wide eyes plainly showed her surprise to the quiet demon. But no fear. Not an ounce of fright was present in her eyes.
At a chorus of shouts from behind her Kagome held up her hands, silently telling her friends she was ok. When Inuyasha and Kouga continued coming she quickly subdued them, managing to be heard even with her throat firmly ensnared.
Sesshoumaru stared at the girl with cold eyes. "Why would you do something so stupid as to subdue your only means of rescue? If I move my hand half an inch you'll be dead. You do not know me good enough to not fear me."
Kagome smiled softly. She had hit a nerve buried deep inside of Sesshoumaru with what she had said. Which could mean only one thing. She had been right. She raised one hand and encircled his wrist with it. Her intent was not to try and pull him away; she knew she would never win that battle. No, rather her intent was to comfort, she knew touch went farther than words when it came to reassuring others. With touch the person knew they weren't alone, you could not deny touch like you could words.
"I know you well enough to know you wouldn't kill me, or bring me to harm. I trust you Sesshoumaru. I trust you just as I trust Inuyasha, Kouga, and the others. You are a good person. But you seem to be afraid of showing emotions or letting anyone get close. But Sesshoumaru, you have friends whether you want to admit it or not. And let me tell you, friends are the greatest things in the world. Better than land, riches, or being the strongest around."
When Sesshoumaru's grip loosened Kagome drew his hand away from her throat. She squeezed it tightly between both of hers before dropping it. Reaching out she began undoing the pigtails. Sesshoumaru said nothing, merely stared down at the top of her head in a contemplative silence.
As she worked Kagome continued talking. "And the one thing friends do are trust one another. I'd place my life willingly into yours or any of the other's hands and not be afraid. And I know they feel the same. But the question is Sesshoumaru, do you trust us in the same way? Do you trust that we won't stab you in the back when you're unaware? You've already proved in our fight with Akki you'd save our lives. Now if you believe we'd save yours then you've got friends."
Kagome unraveled the last of the second pigtail and stepped back from the stony lord. "Think about it Sesshoumaru. It's worth it."
With those final words Sesshoumaru turned his back on Kagome. "I'm going to patrol the surrounding area. Keep going towards the village with the others," he said in a tight voice. Without waiting for a response he briskly walked off into the woods.
As soon as he disappeared deeper into the forest Inuyasha and the others rushed up to her. Kouga promptly drew her against his chest.
"Kagome! Why did you subdue me? I could have saved you!"
Before Kagome could utter a word Inuyasha ripped Kouga off of her. "Kagome doesn't need your help you damn wolf," he growled. He then placed one clawed hand beneath Kagome's chin and lifted her head to peer at her neck. "Did he hurt you Kagome? I swear, I'll kill him if he hurt you. I'll kill him even if he just thought of hurting you."
Especially since I trust that damn guy. Oh shit, did I just say I trust Sesshoumaru? With Kagome? Dear god, what's happening to me?
Kagome's eyes twinkled in amusement as she placed her hand on Inuyasha's and removed it from her chin. Without really realizing it Inuyasha's fingers wrapped around Kagome's.
AWWW! They're so CUTE together!Hm, I wonder if anyone ever gave Inuyasha the 'birds and the bees' discussion. Heh, perhaps he would appreciate it if I gave him a few pointers…
"Kagome?" asked Inuyasha hesitantly. "Something wrong? You're face just turned red."
She roughly shook her head and dropped Inuyasha's hand. "Uh…No…NO! Nothing is wrong!" She walked up the grinning monk and glared up at him.
Miroku raised his eyebrows suggestively at the miko. "Why Kagome, I didn't know. But, I'm sorry."
Now Kagome and everyone looked confused.
"You want me of course. But I wish I would have known that earlier. You see, Sango and me are together now. Hm, but if she doesn't mind we could have a not-so-secret rendes…"
"PERVERT!" screamed Kagome and Sango in unison. Sango smacked Miroku on the right while Kagome smacked him in the front. And for added benefit Kouga punched Miroku in the back and Inuyasha hit him on the head with the hilt of tetsusaiga. Needless to say, the monk dropped rather fast.
"Damn monk," fumed Kouga. "How dare he suggest my woman would go with anyone but me."
"Damn hardheaded wolf," grumbled Inuyasha. "How obvious can it be that Kagome isn't your woman?"
But she is mine. On the wall of my cave I wrote 'Kagome is my woman.'
No one could quite understand why Kagome suddenly broke out in a fit of giggles nor why she gasped out, "is it a curse, or my amusement? I honestly don't know anymore!" When she finally calmed down she straightened back up and acted like nothing strange had just taken place. Four worried faces met her. "What?" she asked.
"Uh," said Inuyasha logically. "You just…"
"Went insane?" offered Kouga.
"Crazy," added Miroku.
"Out of control," finished Sango.
Kagome waved them off. "Nah, I'm fine. Come on, let's go. Sesshoumaru is probably way ahead of us by now." She turned and started walking away. 'Please, just let it drop.'
"No," said a stern voice right before a clawed hand wrapped around her upper arm. Kagome's shoulders slumped and she turned to face her friends again.
Wow, she looks like she's about to be executed. What on earth is she hiding? And why won't she tell us? I thought we were like sisters, what happened to trust?
Kagome turned to Sango, shock in her face. Did Sango actually think she didn't trust her anymore? Did they all think she didn't trust them anymore? Sesshoumaru did say they suspected something, suspected she was hiding something. But had it really gone so far as to affect their trust in her?
Yeah, something is definitely wrong with her. She's looking like someone just slapped her. I can't take this mystery any longer.
Inuyasha gently tugged on Kagome's arm to bring her attention back to him. Everyone else crowed around him, no one wanted to miss this for anything.
I never thought I'd be cheering the puppy on with Kagome, but for once I am. I've got to know what's going on.
"Kagome, what is going on?" asked Inuyasha. "And don't you dare say nothing. That's a lie and we all know it. You have not been acting like yourself since, well, Akki's attack. At first we thought you were just scared of dying, but we don't think that's the only reason. You've never been scared of anything before and Akki's a slightly different story, but still…"
"You've stared down and fought both Naraku and Sesshoumaru," continued Miroku. "Even when you knew how quickly they could kill you it didn't stop you. So it's hard to believe Akki could cause such a change in your personality."
"Kag, you know we'd do anything for you," said Sango. "We want to help, but we can't if you don't tell us what's wrong."
Kagome sighed. "Sesshoumaru's right," she said softly.
"Sesshoumaru?" asked Inuyasha. "What does he have to do with any of this?"
I swear, if he's causing you to act like this I'll kill him.
"He told me I couldn't hide forever. And he's right. Hiding only manages to make things worse."
He's to blame. I knew it! Knew we shouldn't have let him join us!A soft growl emanated from Inuyasha's chest. "You stay here," he commanded. "I've got some business to attend to."
"NO!" shouted Kagome. "Sesshoumaru isn't to blame! He's done nothing but help me! You can't fight him. Please, don't," she pleaded.
Damn the control she has over me.
Phew. I was almost certain she would have said that mutt's name. This is too good to interrupt with that damn rosary spell.
Inuyasha turned back to Kagome, his eyes narrowed. "If my brother isn't to blame, then why does he know what's going on?" he asked dangerously.
"Now is not the time to get in a shouting match," said a cold voice. "Time is wearing thin so I suggest we get to the village."
Inuyasha faced Sesshoumaru, his hands clenched into fists. "What the hell is going between you and Kagome?" he shouted. "Why do you know something no one else does?"
"Jealous dear brother?" smirked Sesshoumaru. "Afraid I've come to take your wench away?"
"That's it you bastard," snarled Inuyasha. "You'll regret ever saying that." He began charging down his brother.
Oh no no no no no. She's going to say it. I know she is.
"INUYASHA! SIT!" screamed Kagome.
With two successful crashes the clearing grew silent once again.
Dammit, she did say his name. For once I wish I had been wrong.
Kagome looked sheepishly towards the subdued wolf who was silently lamenting his curse. "Uh, sorry about that Kouga," she apologized. "Just, you know…"
"Sometimes you've just got to say it," grumbled the wolf.
Inuyasha growled when two feet appeared on either side of his head.
"You know Inuyasha," said Sesshoumaru, staring at the hanyou's unmoving head, "you truly are pathetic. Are you so insecure to think Kagome would run off on you? I have no intention of 'stealing' her. I never have."
"Then why are you two hiding a secret?" growled Inuyasha.
Sesshoumaru shrugged. "The only one who can answer that is Kagome. I have suggested many times that she tell you. But she hasn't been very cooperative."
Inuyasha climbed to his feet and glared at Kagome. "You willtellus. Now. Or is there some reason you only want Sesshoumaru to know?" he asked in gruff voice, attempting to cover the hurt in his voice.
She does like me…right?Kagome sighed. "Inuyasha, I didn't tell your brother anything. He figured it out on his own. And Kaede also knows because I told her."
It. It. It. It. Quit saying it!"What is 'it'?" exploded Kouga when he couldn't contain his curiosity any longer.
Kagome couldn't help but laugh at the disgruntled wolf. "Um, how about this. I'll tell you guys what's going on when we get to the village."
Miroku saw Inuyasha getting ready to object so he quickly stepped in. "That is a good idea. Perhaps it will give some people a chance to calm down," he said, giving Inuyasha a pointed glare.
Crossing his arms Inuyasha stalked off.
"Yeah," said Kagome in a defeated voice before turning to also leave. She looked up when a shadow fell upon her. The towering figure of the demon lord looked down on her. "I hope you're right Sesshoumaru," she whispered. "I hope it will help if I tell them."
If you don't believe me than don't say anything. It's as simple as that.
Shaking her head Kagome said, "no, it's too late to turn back now. Besides, like I said before, you're my friend. I trust you."
oOoOoOoOoOo
Sango tightened her hand around the hilt of her katana as she stepped into her village. It still hurt to come back her. It would always hurt.
Miroku drew her into a one armed hug to offer as much comfort as he could give. Sango willingly took it.
Damn Naraku picking this place. Making Sango fight on the graves of her people. He'll die. By god he'll pay for doing this.
Inuyasha looked back to see everyone else enter the village. He growled softly when he saw Sesshoumaru and Kagome walk in side by side. He walked up to them. "Now you'll tell us," he demanded.
I want to hear! I want to hear!Kouga rushed up and stared at Kagome like a hungry puppy. Miroku and Sango also walked closer, neither wanted to miss outon what Kagome was about to tell them.
Kagome wrung her hands together worriedly. She looked at each of her friends in turn, stopped at Sesshoumaru. At his curt nod she sighed.
"Well?" said Inuyasha impatiently.
"You guys sure you want to know?"
"YES!" shouted Kouga, managing to drown out everyone else's affirmations.
"Well, if you really want to know…"
Just spit it out already. They won't kill you.Kagome rolled her eyes at the dog demon then grinned cheerfully at the others. "Well, when Akki attacked me the first time I got a new ability."
"Which is?" prompted Miroku.
"I can read minds."
Everyone grew deathly silent as the words worked their way into their brains. When her words finally sunk into Inuyasha's mind he did something he had never done before. And something he wished to never repeat.
He fainted.
oOoOoOoOoOo
Hehe, I couldn't resist making Inuyasha faint. Just the image of Inuyasha falling over in a dead faint in the presence of everyone…heh, I liked it. Well, next chapter Inuyasha faces the consequences of fainting. And everyone's favorite squirrel shows up. Not sure yet if any fighting will be next chapter, we'll see. Well look for it who knows when!
Review Responses: Holy shit, almost 80 reviews for last chapter. Thank you guys so much! A lot of you also moo'ed at me, yay! That made me feel special, and I also enjoyed laughing at all you who did moo.
I'm upset: I understand you're frustration with having to wait so long for the next chapter, but I didn't just "choose to wait a month to update". And another thing, I don't base updates on the number of reviews I get. If I got 10 or 100 reviews I'd update in the same amount of time. The reason it takes me so long to update at times is because I'm in college and I have a full course load (18 credits), so I have a lot of work to do for school. And as much as I'd like to write more, I'm not able to simply because I'm either busy or braindead from constantly doing school stuff. Believe me, if I were able to do weekly updates I would in a heartbeat. I'm not trying to be mean or anything here, but I am defending myself and my less than pleasant updating schedule. I'm glad to hear you like my story and I hope that you'll continue to read and enjoy it even if I'm not always able to update as fast as you'd like.
Gravichick816: Hehe, there's absolutely nothing wrong with being overly obsessed with Gravitation, it's a great manga (I say manga cuz I have yet to see the anime). Glad you liked the Sess/Kag part, and yup, you're right, she really is just an older Rin. Haha, I would never even attempt to draw the great Sesshy with pigtails because I have finally admitted to myself that I suck as an artist. And you know what? I really think Sess would look hot in anything.
Dog-Ear Fetish: Well, there had to be at least one rebel in the group who just had to quack at me. Haha, that would be a sight, Inu, Kouga, and Sess, with pigtails preparing for the showdown with Naraku and Akki.
Ainominako: You know, this is the second that this has happened. Only the first line of your review showed up and everything else was cut off. Unless if you actually meant to just write an 'I' and leave it at that. You're just weird enough to do that.
Medlii: Heh, I can't believe how many people are still reading this story 30 chapters in. So awesome.
Purely Mistake: Well, I'm glad you love the story! And about taking a month to update, I'm really sorry about how that's been happening. But this semester has been pretty miserable so far which makes it hard for me to write, Hope you understand!
Destiny of Insanity: Hehe, yeah, you wouldn't exactly call Inu the brightest individual. But that definitely doesn't make him any less popular.
Jinenji: Yup, Kagome as finally told them. And yay! You realized that humor is the first category! Thank you for seeing that!
YuniX-2: Ah, you've played the Inu videogame? That is kind of messed how they could make SanMir into a love triangle, with Miroku's pervertedness they don't any other distractions! Haha, you know, it is pretty entertaining reading a review where the person is writing it while reading. You get to hear their reactions which is pretty cool/amusing. Gasp! And you don't like popcorn? Wow, I thought everyone liked popcorn. Hehe, and nope, you caught my typo, Kouga saying 'mind' was not a bad pun, I just screwed up. Hahaha, glad to see the flowered Sesshy almost killed you. That's always nice to hear. : ) Ooh, and the dreaded chorese, I remember when I used to have those. Hope you had er…fun? with them! Thanks for the awesome review!
Quiggibub: Hehe, glad you liked the little bit of Mir/San I had at the beginning. I'm pretty sure the one who requested more Mir/San in a review so I was happy to oblige!
Moonglow gal: Hah, 'braidy-braids'? So, I'm guessing we're back in kindergarten? Hehe, well, glad you liked the 'braidy-braids' on Sesshy.
Kitsama: Ack, sorry about not reading your story yet. I'll get to it, I promise, I've just been busy lately! And thanks for reading my story!
BlackMageMasta: Hehe, I think I've screwed up the Inuyasha-subdues-Kouga thing several times now. That will be one thing when I finally go back and revise this story I'll have to be sure to correct. If you say any other times I slip up please let me know!
Hotaru-chan: Yay! I got a sticker. And I'm happy to hear that you find my story funny and don't mind the overabundance of fillers.
Madpenguin: Haha, have Naraku die by rabies? Now that would be different! Well, I do know how Naraku is going to die (shoot, did I just say Naraku will die…hm, yeah, appears I did), but you'll just have to wait to see how he actually dies!
Naomi-Starcloud: Hm, you know, you saying Sess can be a jerk and sweet at the same time reminds me oddly of his hanyou brother. Haha, if you thought Kouga was insane last chapter how did you like him this chapter? Like a hyperactive kid with wanting to know Kagome's 'secret'. And yup, Sess and Kag do make great friends which is all they'll be in this story. There isn't even attraction between them because I saw no reason for it. So they're just really good friends. Heh, and you're version of the Sess-pigtails was also cute, poor Sess, people seem to love making fun of him!
Draconic Ban-sidhea: Heh, yup, Sess definitely convinced Kagome to tell the others about her ability. Hope you liked Inu's reaction! Ooh, and if you draw a pic of Sess with braids you must let me see! That would be so cool to see drawn.
Mirokuluver's friend: Haha, I love degrading Sesshy, he needs someone to take his high-and-mighty attitude down a few notches. Ah, and thanks for letting me know mirokuluver is still liking this story, I was wondering where she had wondered off to!
Readsalot: Haha, me, evil? Nah…aw heck, I love being evil. It's one of my favorite personality traits!
ChaosKatsuneDancer: Hehe, yeah…my regular updates used to be a lot better but eh, I try my best! Wow, you read the whole story straight through? Heh, awesome! And I'm glad to hear you think the characters are written together well, that's always nice to hear!
Colhan3000: Heheh, well you can see Inuyasha's initial reaction to hearing about Kag's ability. And if he fainted you can probably imagined what he was able to put together, or at least what he fears Kagome has heard from him!
Piperjane-pie: Heh, yup, the great demon lord…as a girl. Heh, if Miroku was real he wouldn't have to worry about being smacked around while groping a girl, I think a line miles long would form just to have him grope them. But if Sess was real, well I think I'd start running and hope he never found me!
Chrisy12: Haha, I love it when parents/siblings look at you funny when you're laughing at a computer. My family always looks at me funny cuz I tend to laugh a lot while at the computer. They must think I'm insane or something.
Misse Peterson: Hehe, well, I definitely took my time with this update so sorry, but your evil glare didn't work! (I'm kind of immune to them after living with my sister for so many years!)
Sesshomarufan17: Hm, about the Sess/Kagura pairing. I don't know, but I've never liked that pairing. Even if it's true and actually happens, I don't know, it just seems…off…to me. So I'm thinking Sess shall remain single throughout this story, sorry!
Dark Inu Fan: Haha, quite all right about not having me on author alerts. Heh, with me even if I have someone on author alerts I still sometimes forget to read the next chapter. I'm just "ah, they updated, I'll read it later." And yeah…I forget.
Jamie: Hm, how many chapters do I think I have left? You know, I'm not really sure. This story is really just writing itself and the plot is unfolding with each chapter (well…at least the chapters that actually have some plot to them). For a very very rough estimate…5-10? I'm not sure though, so don't hold it to me. And you know, you're reviews will be very helpful when I go back to revise this story, so thank you! As for Miroku's thoughts not in italics, it wasn't a mistake as Kagome actually didn't hear them. Hm, and why didn't Kag subdue Inu and Kouga when they were fighting? Have you ever been just so annoyed with someone that you really just don't care what they do? Well, Kag was at that point with Inu and Kouga arguing about her. She didn't want to deal with them so left them in the care of Sango.
Lightofheaven: Heh, don't worry about talking about previous chapters, it helps to bring back memories for me to. Because to be honest, I forget some of the antics I've made them all do. They've just done so many stupid things I can't remember them all!
Inuyashas Plaything: Wow, thanks for the compliments! I'm glad you like this story that much.
Shadow-Wolf-Jedi-Demon: Ooh, if you draw Sesshy with pigtails you'll have to let me know! I'd love to see how it'd come out.
Dancingirl3: Wow, another person who read the whole story in one night. Very impressive! And thanks for saying it's good (although I'm sure you wouldn't have read this far if it wasn't at least halfway decent!), I always love gaining new readers and knowing they like it! Hehe, I think one reason this story did go over so well was because Sess is so…weird and different…than he normally is, at least that's what I think, but then, who knows what I know. Ah, and yes I do have AIM, it just doesn't always work for me. Stupid AIM. My screenname is Heart of Chaos1 if you want it.
Maddy-Black: Aw, you finally reached the end of the chapters? I guess I just don't update fast enough! Haha, actually, if you want to help me update faster you can my organic chemistry work for me. Aw darn, you won't do it? Well, it was worth a try!
Makeyourselfduo: Hehe, Kikyo? Hm, well I'll let you in on a little secret…she will make an appearace…just won't say when!
