AN- Alright peeps, sorry it took so long to update. I have no excuse except that I was busy. I know you guys are all probably like, "Oh my god! You were too busy to update!" Or perhaps you are passing dead right now at the statement. Either way, its true. I do have a life! Joanna (I think I spelled it right, did I?) asked me to, like others, so I decided to get on with it. Any who, this is dedicated to all you Sesshomaru fans! (sorta) Enjoy!

PS- I am sorry if this turns into a Frankenstein creation! I really am.

"Sesshomaru." Inuyasha stated with distaste clear in his voice. He knew that if he stayed in the room while carrying on a conversation, Kagome would wake up. Still, he was not about to show any signs of leaving Kagome's side with his brother there.

"Half breed." Sesshomaru replied with even more revulsion and disgust.

"What the hell do you want?" Inuyasha furrowed his eyebrows in rage, wanting to get to the point.

"Well, I noticed that you were carrying the girl upstairs into one of the bedrooms and decided to check up on her, knowing you for your horny-self. No wonder the other wench left you." Sesshomaru knew he had hit a nerve. He could tell buy the way his half-brother clenched his fists at his sides.

"Its not like you to care what I do with my women, Sesshomaru. Any interests in this one?" Inuyasha hoped he would say no for some reason.

"No, it is not like me to care at all. But, this one looks a lot like Kikyo. That is her name, right?"

"What do you want with Kagome?" Inuyasha knew that Sesshomaru would try to make Kagome fall for him if he knew his real plans with her, just to ruin his plans. Just so he could rub it in his face that, he could have any woman he wanted, and even steal his. They had had sibling rivalry for as long as he could remember, and Sesshomaru always beat him.

"What I want with her? Well, she is rather attractive. She must attend La Brea that being the closest college, so she has to be smart. And she has a pretty good figure. No, Inuyasha, the real question is, what I wouldn't want with her."

Sesshomaru was testing him, Inuyasha knew that. And Sesshomaru had also figured out his plan with Kagome, or the main idea anyway. Its amazing how he figured it out in less than an hour while it took Inuyasha roughly a month.

"She's mine. Leave her alone." Growled Inuyasha, baring his fangs. He didn't like the fact that Sesshomaru showed interest in Kagome.

Has learning so much about the girl started to affect me?

"Why don't we let her decide who she wants to be with? The half-breed bastard or me." He replied still in his stoic voice, speaking as if the truth were to be revealed.

Inuyasha understood that Sesshomaru wouldn't mind playing with Kagome. It was just that, what about the end? What if she wanted Sesshomaru over him? Would Sesshomaru just toss her aside, like he did the others? How far was he willing to go with this? If anything, Inuyasha already knew that Sesshomaru had some sort of interest in her.

He didn't want his brother to play around with Kagome's feelings. She deserved better, from what he had learned of her so far.

But isn't that what you are going to do to her? A voice in his mind echoed.

It couldn't be, he was only going to use her till he made Kikyo jealous enough to come back to him. Its not like one of them would be serious about their soon-to-be relationship. So no one would get hurt.

Sesshomaru on the other hand…….had had many women confess their undying love for him. And he wouldn't even give them a second look. What if Kagome fell in love with him? Or he with her? No Sesshomaru wouldn't allow himself the opportunity.

But, if Kagome wanted Inuyasha, his plan could still work.

"Let the games begin." Inuyasha replied, again confident with his womanizing techniques.

Sesshomaru smirked, This will be interesting. Very interesting.

"May the better brother win." And with that he turned and left.

Inuyasha remained in the room. He turned out to cast another look at Kagome before departing. Thinking why he didn't want Sesshomaru to play with her heart. Could he possibly care for her? Or was it just because of the brief moments they had spent talking outside? Feeling pretty sure that that was the reason why, Inuyasha walked to his room to sleep.

Kagome's POV

I woke up to the blinding rays of the sun flashing into my face from out of nowhere. No wonder vampires hate the sun, probably woke/blinded them too. So they probably had decided to sleep during the day. I felt fine, except the little headache. When I sat up in my bed, or what I thought it was, I looked around.

Not seeing the overly cheery room I woke up too every morning, I noticed that I wasn't in my room anymore. Not only that, I wasn't wearing my pajamas either, instead a really skimpy tank top and skirt with my black high heeled boots still on. Had I been kidnapped and dressed shamelessly?

The room I was in had a queen sized bed, which I was occupying right now. The bed sheet was a silky baby blue and white, giving of the essence of peace. The walls were painted a light turquoise, with a pale blue border around the perimeter. All the furniture was white, and there was a lot of it. The entire room was very spacious, including the windows. The entire wall next to the bed I was occupying was made of glass.

The view was something I've never seen before. Lots of grass, then all of the sudden a brick wall-like fence was there. Protruding out of the blue. It was connected to a large black gate that was locked and bolted. I could see the lock from all the way up here. Yes, I noticed I wasn't on ground level.

Great I'm a prisoner.

Not only that, but somehow there was a balcony on that glass wall. I looked around the room, looking for any clues that might lead to as to whom owned the house. I knew my hair was tousled, looking as if I had stood out in a tornado. I noticed there were three doors in the room, one on each of the other three walls.

One had to be an exit. So I got up to try the first one.

Nope. It was a walk-in closet. Full of clothes after clothes. Of course my curiosity got the best of me so, I decided to check it out. The first few rows were pants, after that shirts, followed by jackets and coats, dresses, and lastly skirts. At the end of the closet were purses, scarves, shoes.

So, I think I've been kidnapped and what do I do about it? Drool over the closet. Nice, Kagome. Good job. And now, I'm talking to myself.

Walking out of the long closet, I decide to see what is in door number two.

A bathroom. Full with a hot tub. Made out of white marble, the sink was very elegant, with gold handles. There were mirror's on all the walls, with more cabinets. The hot tub was large, and practically begging for me to use it. But no, I resist the temptation of the heavenly call of the hot tub. The tub for showering was also large and had button on the side for reason I do not know.

As I looked into the mirrors, I noticed I was a mess. My glittery eye-shadow now covered my entire eye area, giving my complete eye color a metallic color. You could plainly tell my skin from the foundation. My eyeliner had run, giving me raccoon eyes.

What had I been doing last night?

When I could think of nothing, I decided to be beat up my kidnapper into telling me, if it got down to that. My, how violent of me.

I washed my face with cool fresh water, relishing in its feeling. Not bothering to dry my face, I decided the last door had to be the exit.

Time to go.

So, I was right. It was the exit. Lot of good that did me, now I had to maneuver my way out of a maze like house. Looking for a way out, I saw an elevator.

I feel like I'm in love.

Almost running to the elevator, that could lead me to my freedom, I thought, why there would be an elevator in an house.

I was in a house, right?

As soon as I got to elevator I saw that not like a normal elevator it didn't have numbers. No, to make life harder for me, whom ever lived in this house had decided that numbers weren't good enough, so they decided to use colors.

Joy.

Let's see…….maybe red? That seemed to be the most important color out of them all. I shrugged, might as well, seeing of how I have nothing better to do.

The elevator music turned on as soon as I started to go down, it was some lame violin and flute music. The type that made you want to gag yourself at the sweetness of it all.

Finally, deciding that I couldn't take anymore of the damned music torcher chamber, I pressed the stop button and opened the door to whatever level I stopped at.

Just as my luck was today, I open the door to find a dining table with two men sitting there eating breakfast. Both had silver hair, except one of them with the cold look had longer hair. His hair looked a lot silkier than the other guy's. While he had almost feminine features, the other guy had golden eyes full of emotion with almost gruff features and cute dog ears.

They looked alike, almost like brothers. But, one resembled icy frost while the other an eternal flame.

I decided to get the greeting done and over with, and started walking towards them. Almost instantly both turned to look at me. Unfazed by the sudden attention, I kept walking towards them. And they stared on.

So, I was good with audiences. Why does that start the wheels in my head to turn….although a bit slowly. Did I do something with an audience not too long ago?

Unable to think of a reply, I just chose to forget about it.

As soon as I was next to the puppy looking guy, I couldn't resist the temptation any longer. Practically hugging the poor victim I started to pet his ears as if he was a dog.

"Awwww! You are so cute! Kawaii ears!" I half giggled and said at the same time. (kawaii- Japanese word for cute) Smushing him against myself, as I drowned him in compliments, I took no notice of anything else.

Feeling as if I had abused my poor victim enough, I knelt down by his chair.

Smiling widely, I said to him, "Hi! My name is Kagome Higuarshi." Just then did I notice that his cheeks were painted a cute light pink.

He was blushing! Of course, to me that was the cutest thing ever. So it sent me in another rage of giggling and petting. Which he sat through, blushing furiously now.

"Sorry, you are just so damn cute when you blush! Like a adorable little puppy! But, I'm done petting now. So continue on your breakfast." I said cheerfully, now not minding that I thought I had been kidnapped.

"Are you feeling ok, Kagome?" The adorable puppy asked.

I smiled at the thought of him being so sweet, "Of course I am, sweetie. Why do you ask?"

"You don't remember being drunk last night?"

"Drunk……why would I get---" I started but never finished. All the memories of last night parties came rushing back to me. Kouga ditched me, I got drunk, I was with Bankoutsu, I sung "I'm so sexy", and some guy outside was talking to me.

"I guess that would explain why I'm wearing this." I looked down at myself. "I never figured out who wanted to meet me. Kouga ditched me and then forgot about me. And…….OH MY GOD!" I screamed aloud in a horrified screech.

"I kissed so many damn people last night!" I was so disgusted with myself for letting myself lose control. I used my shirt to scrub my mouth as hard as I could. Finally tasting blood, I decided to stop before I rubbed myself free of a mouth.

"How could I be so stupid? I've drank but never got drunk before! Oh no, I just had to get drunk this time! And Kouga-" I sighed, an exasperated look evident on my face.

"You say you've never gotten drunk before. May I ask why?" Finally curiosity getting the best of his, Sesshomaru asked oh so politely. (Me- I like Sesshomaru)

"Oh, I asked my grandfather once, because I didn't know. All he said was that I was related to some miko who killed demons. So, I guess I'm a miko or something, but you don't see me going around killing anyone."

"I see." He replied, his eyes sparkling in a way I could not understand.

"Oh, I'm sorry. How rude of me," I walked to the other guy and stuck out my hand for him to shake, "I never introduced myself before intruding on your breakfast. I'm Kagome." I smiled.

"Sesshomaru." He shook my hand.

"Oh, I've heard of you! Sesshomaru Takahashi, Japan's number one bachelor, you are the president of some great company." I said with acute calmness unlike all of his fan girls. I could tell that me being calm while knowing him, surprised him immensely. Though I couldn't care less.

"That must mean, you are Mr. Takahashi's younger son, Inuyasha." I couldn't contain my laughter any longer and so I burst out in a fit of chuckling.

"Oi, what's so funny wench?" Inuyasha looked pissed that I was laughing at him, but I couldn't help it.

"First of all, I read about you in a magazine before. You are known for your womanizing playboy ways. Always the rebel, aren't ya Inuyasha? And second of all, don't call me wench." I said with my hands on my hips.

"I'll call you whatever I want to." Inuyasha replied stubbornly.

"Inuyasha, I might think you are cute, but the game you so valiantly decided to play last night requires more of you than that." I gave him a cold look, becoming serious all of the sudden.

I had heard them both yesterday, but I decided to act as if I hadn't incase my ears were deceiving me while I was drunk. You can never trust what you hear while in that state.

I thought I was just being delusional when I dirst heard them, I mean seriously, what are the chances of that happening? So I had fell asleep thinking that much. But when I woke up, it dawned on me that now that I could think clearer, it hadn't been a dream.

First, I was really angry. I mean how could they just...just court me in a game? I was pissed beyond all reason. Then, I thought, why not? THE Sesshomaru and Inuyasha wanted toflirt with me,so why not let them?Its not like I'm gonna be easy to get or anything. HELL NO! They wanna play, well there is nobeginneror intermeditatelevel.

"How-" Inuyasha started but was cut off by Sesshomaru.

"So you know."


AN- Well, wasn't that unexpected. Heck, I didn't even know that was going to happen till I typed it. I wonder how things go from here.
