Chapter Eight

"Whaa-" Was all Kagome could say as Inuyasha looked at her, crimson eyes glowing.

Inuyasha glared, "Stupid wench! How dare you insult me! For that, I shall not let you live!"

Inuyasha got up and started to walk towards Kagome, but Sesshoumaru stood in the way.

"Inuyasha, return to your hanyou state, I shall not alow you to fight whilst you are here."

"Sesshoumaru! I will kill you! SENKON TESSOU!"(AN: That's Inuyasha's claw attack right?)

Sesshoumaru dodged the attack with such grace it left Kagome dumbfounded.

'How can he do that! It's like hes dancing… weird!'

"How dare you mock me! Sesshoumaru die!" Inuyasha leapt at Sesshoumaru with his claw fully extended.

And yet again, Sesshoumaru dodged it. (AN: Just like I dodge homework!)

"Inuyasha, you annoy me, leave now."

"Not until I have killed that traitorous wench!" Inuyasha leapt at Kagome, with full intent to kill her…… when suddenly Kagome remembered her "favourite" word!

"Inuyasha," she said sweetly. Inuyasha looked at her confused.

"OSWARI!!! Osuwari, osuwari, osuwari, and……….. OSUWARI!"

Inuyasha made craters in his craters, luckly for everyone (especially Inuyasha) Inuyasha got knocked out after the second osuwari.

"Yay! Kagome beat up Inuyasha!" Shippou cheered.

"Kagome-sama, may I suggest we put Tetsusaiga back in it's sheith before he awakens?" Miroku suggested wisely, using the time to sneak up beside Sango.

SMACK

"Stupid hentai……." Sango groweled.

Kagome had just finished retrieving the Tetsusaiga when she noticed something, "Sango, when Inuyasha wakes up, what are we gonna do? I mean, I'm not going to search for kakera with him…"

"We can search for kakera without Inuyasha, plus Naraku pretty much has the kakera we don't have and Kouga has a few and…. Kohaku has one, so it shouldn't be too hard."

"Yeah! I guess your right!" Kagome smiled.

Sesshoumaru decided to speak up, "Kagome, I shall help you find the remainder of the kakera. If I help you it will eventually lead me to Naraku."

"Sesshoumaru-sama, you are welcome to join our group." Miroku stated.

"Come, you must be tired. I shall have Jaken prepare rooms for you."

The Next Morning

"Sesshoumaru-sama, we are going on a trip?"

"Yes Rin, and we will not be back for a while. There is a young kitsune in the group we will be traveling with, I'm sure you will not get too bored.

"Yay! We can play dress up Jaken-sama!!"

Sesshoumaru walked off and beckoned Rin to follow.

At The Castle Gate

Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Shippou all were "eagerly" awaiting for the taiyoukai to grace them with his presence.

"He's late," Shippou stated obviously.

"Yes we know," the others answered with a sigh.

"When is he gonna get here?" Kagome mumbled impatiently.

"When he gets here I guess," Sango replied.

"Here he comes," Miroku said after a wait.

Indeed the taiyoukai was walking over with Rin and Jaken.

"Okay, now that everyone is finally here we can move out and search for the remaining kakera."

Later That Day

"Die Kakera carrying monster!" Kagome yelled as she loosed an arrow.

The arrow struck the youkai's heart and it was purified. The shikon no kakera fell to the ground.

Kagome walked over and picked the kakera up, automatically purifying it. "Yay! A shikon no kakera!! But….. that seemed a little bit easy, wouldn't you agree?"

"I guess, but that was a pretty weak youkai…" Sango answered with a shrug.

"We should set up camp, it's getting late," Miroku suggested.

At The Groups Camp

"Hey Kagome…"

"Yeah Sango?"

"You don't seem that upset over Inuyasha trying to kill you."

"Well, this is the second time, really…"

"WHAT!! Inuyasha has tried to kill you before!"

"Well sorta…" Kagome stumbled, "but Sesshoumaru saved me."

"He…. Saved you?"

"Yeah, sort of…. I mean, well…" Kagome stumbled over her words, "Inuyasha was really attacking Sessoumaru, but he probley would have come for me afterward."

"Oh, why? I thought Inuyasha was your friend."

"So did I but I was proved wrong when I saw him confess his affections to Kikyou, and even more when he thought I was willingly with Sesshoumaru."

"Aren't you with him willingly?"

"Right now? Yes. Before? No. He was trying to use me as bait for the Tetsusaiga."

"Oh, that makes sense."

"Hey Kagome!" Shippou called, "Can I have another lolipop? And one for Rin too!"

"Hai Shippou, just wait a sec, I have to get them."

Kagome rummaged around her backpack for the sweet treats. "Ah ha!" She exclaimed once she found them, "Shippou, Rin! Here are the lollipops."

Shippou and Rin scrambled over. Taking the lollipops they corsed, "Thank you Kagome(-Sama)"

Rin brought the lollipop over to Sesshoumaru.

Said person leaned over and sniffed the candy, then nodded at Rin, who ran over to Shippou with a smile.

"Hey Sango."

"Hai Kagome?"

"Where is Miroku?"

Sango tensed up at that exact moment. "I have a pretty good idea!" Shango growled while grabbing her Hiraikotsu (AN: Poor me, I have to keep asking if things are spelled right. Ithink I spelled Sango's bone bomarang wrong.)

BANG

'Poor Miroku, he is always getting himself hurt,' Kagome thought, 'If only he could control that hand of his.'

At Night

"Sesshoumaru? Can I ask you something…" Kagome questioned.

"Hai, if you wish."

"Why do you say you hate humans? I mean you saved Rin, and you recently saved me. So why do you say that?"

Sesshoumaru sighed and began, "Because……"
