A/N Please do not be alarmed at the things you read here. Although they sound a bit "off" or a bit "weird" I think its funny P But yes, if you think its stupid, then screw off. If you think its great, leave a review! D And I'm EXTREMELY sorry for the VERY VERY VERY late update. I hadn't realized so much time had passed, plus I was having a bit of a writers block so er-scratches the back of my head sheepishly - Anyways, ENJOY!


Kagome was definitely NOT a morning person, but if you were being held in an intimate way by a demon that was breathing little hot breaths in your ear, I'd think you'd be wide awake as well.

Sesshoumaru moaned a little in his sleep and buried his face deeper into her black mane. What was scary was that Kagome WANTED to hear that again. The more she pushed away, the tighter he clung and so Kagome could only settle down and hope he'd awaken soon.

The warmth was like a vortex, drawing him deeper and deeper into sleep, but he had to awaken, had to do his duties and so he forced his eyes open, pleasantly surprised at the young woman in his arms.

"Whardya dung her?" he mumbled and rubbed the sleep from his eyes.

Kagome giggled at his childishness and couldn't help but think how cute he was at the moment.

"Repeat that please?" she smiled amused and sat up.

He stared at her as he remembered last night's little tryst and his breath quickened chasing away all thoughts of sleep.

Kagome lowered her eyes and sighed. She was afraid something like this would happen. Now everything was going to be awkw-

He silenced those thoughts with a kiss.

Or not... Kagome's mind giggled as she kissed back with abandon, savouring his femininely masculine taste and clawed her fingers through his hair.

Okay, the demon lord had to admit, two people with bad morning breaths, kissing, made a bad combination. So he withdrew for a moment and whispered three words in her ears,

"Clean your mouth," he rather liked the minty taste of her mouth from last night. Perhaps she could show him the secret of having such a nice tasting mouth.

Kagome rolled her eyes. It was a good thing she brought toothpaste but it was all in her yellow pack back in her room. Did she really want to get it? And besides, if he actually loved her, wouldn't he not care if she had the worst morning breath in the world? Wait, so then, he DIDN'T like her? Confusing herself even further and breaking her own heart she trudged from the room.

I thought, after everything that happened, he would love me, but no, he has made it quite clear that he only likes me for my sexual prowess. Then again, not that I have any, but every time he's around, I can't help but feel the part of the vixen.

Sighing unhappily she brushed her teeth and changed into a beautiful kimono that Rin had picked out for her. She had to admit that it was quite pretty and wondered who it belonged to.

Servants bustled in and began to do her hair and make-up even though she protested, but the servants only ignored her. Grumbling to herself, she sat calmly waiting for them to finish.

The way to the dining room was a bit of a dozy when she lost her way twice, but as she descended the stairs, she found no one to be there yet.

"Am I early?" she wondered to herself.

"You're late. Everyone else has already partaken their food. You, however, have yet to eat." Sesshoumaru stared pointedly at the empty seat.

He clucked his tongue once and servants scurried in with food galore. They proceeded to heap her plate with an enormous amount of food. Staring at the all the delicious food she was about to protest when Sesshoumaru sat down opposite from her.

"Eat," a simple command but his gaze held her prison.

It felt so weird to be the only one eating but hunger won her over. She daintily ate several bites but Sesshoumaru's constant watch of her unnerved her to no end.

"Could you stop looking at me?" Kagome finally asked exasperated.

"Why?" Sesshoumaru cocked an eyebrow.

"Because, it's... annoying," Kagome finished lamely not exactly knowing herself why his stare affected her so.

"Why?" Kagome knew his game, had a brother who played this game often.

She ignored his question and continued to eat, determined not to let him ruin her breakfast.

He was frustrated, apparently she knew the rules of the game well. Okay, another approach. Only, he didn't have another approach.

"I don't know why you watch me but I'm sure the great Lord of the Western Lands has more important things to do than gaze at a miko all day." Kagome ate another bite.

"You are right, I do, but you are like a black hole," he murmured and felt himself heat up as she licked her lips unconsciously.

"Huh?" Kagome gave him a strange look.

"You draw everything in, and let nothing escape," she furrowed her eyebrows together to make sense of what he was saying, creating a picture of cuteness.

"What do you mean?" the miko was now thoroughly confused and found she had lost her appetite.

"You hold me captive, dear woman, is what I mean," Sesshoumaru stood up abruptly and left the room.

Kagome abandoned her food and chased after the taiyoukai. What did he mean when he said she held him captive! She didn't hold anything prisoner. His strides were long, his speed was fast and Kagome lost him and herself when she realized she was in an unfamiliar part of the castle.

Good, he abandoned her. Let the game begin!


Okay, he had approximately one more hour to find his beloved Sango. But it was so HOT outside and it was making him swelter like a pig. He sat back down in the mouth of the cave and closed his eyes briefly. A nice nap will clear my thoughts to find her. He thought as he sighed and relaxed.


Unknowingly playing the part of the mouse, Kagome wandered around. There were no servants about. Okay... now what? Frowning and becoming increasingly aggravated by her state lostedness, she plopped down onto the floor and wondered where the HELL was InuYasha when you needed him.

The aforementioned hanyou was curled up on his bed. Rin, with a mate... He growled angrily as he imagined her with a human mate. He knew that Sesshoumaru would give her a human mate, as no demon would want Rin unless it was for her money and status.

Whoops, there goes the pillow, slashed to pieces!

InuYasha stalked down the hall in search of Rin. He didn't care if Sesshoumaru wouldn't have him; he was going to have Rin anyways!

"Sesshoumaru!" he bellowed and sniffed trying to decipher where he went.

Speak of the devil and here he comes now.

"Will you shut your incessant babbling!" Sesshoumaru started to massage his temples, feeling an unwelcome headache coming on.

"I've come to, to, to," InuYasha lost his nerve and sulked away.

Sesshoumaru snorted and called for his servants.

"MY PILLS! NOW!" snarling at a nearby servant, he snatched up his sweet tart container and shoved 6 or 7 multicoloured pills down his throat with a dollop of tea.

Experiencing a little light-headedness, he skipped happily down the corridors. Yes, skipped and SMILED. Oh God, one would assume that it was the work of the pill and one is right. However, that smile from Sesshoumaru was potent enough to paralyze any demon or human! Imagine, the GRAND Taiyoukai of the Western Lands, SMILING!

"Sesshoumaru-sama!" okay, maybe with the exception of Rin... then again, no one is really sure if she's a human after all. I mean have you seen her HYPERNESS! Or her EVERLASTING SMILE! One would think that she had also consumed pills similar to Sesshoumaru, but on a long-term basis. And perhaps she did...

"Rin!" his smile widened; oh the horror!

"Have you been eating your pills again?" Rin glared up at Sesshoumaru though he was confused as to why she was being a hypocrite. After all, if she could eat them, why couldn't he?

"Yes, but I am the Great Lord Seshama- Shesshy- Soshe- um, Fluffy-sama!" he pouted and tugged on a tendril of silver hair.

"But you know what happens! Last time, you wrapped pig intestines all along the corridors declaring everyone was to celebrate national stomach juices day!" Rin threw her hands up in the air exasperated.

Kagome just happened around the corner as Rin finished her sentence and heard it all.

"Sesshoumaru-sama?" she choked out as she surveyed what the pills had done to the man she loved.

His once pale cheeks were flushed and the leering grin he gave her was quite disconcerting.

"Yes? Was there 'something' you wanted?" he sidled up beside her still wearing that perverted grin she had only seen on Miroku.

"Um, well-"

"Kagome-san!" Rin squealed happily in an effort to distract Kagome.

"Oh, hello Rin!" she reached down a patted her head absentmindedly.

"I want to show you something! Come!" she hastily pulled her away.

Phew! She was so scared that the new Sesshoumaru would scare Kagome off.

"Wait for me! I want to come too!" Sesshoumaru whined and hurried after them.

Uh oh

"Uh, Sesshoumaru-sama! We would love for you to come, but I think you're needed in the kitchens!" Rin pointed in the general direction.

"I'm needed! Then I must go! I bid you farewell, sweet nymph! Fluffy-sama to the rescue!" he flew off and blew a kiss at Kagome.

Kagome blushed and stared at Sesshoumaru before Rin tugged on her kimono and broke her out of it.

"What did you want to show me?" she took Rin's hand in her own.


Sango hesitantly opened her eyes.

The sun was setting outside and Miroku still hadn't found her. Giggling, she decided to go find the poor houshi and end his misery.

Surprise surprise! There was Miroku snoozing against the wall at the front of the cave.

Sango stopped to ponder for a moment, what should she do? Revenge for all those gropes was beginning to sound pretty good. Her eyes glinted malevolently and she began scheming.
