Chapter 3-A gift, a curse, and hate

Kilala met up with the others around halfway to their destination and transformed into her more demonic form to block their intended path. "Kilala what are you doing? Please let us through we have to see Inuyasha and speak with him," said Sango as she continued to grow more concerned for the half-demon more and more with each passing second.

Kilala however, shook her head and let loose soft cat like growls and moan for Shippo to translate what she was saying since she couldn't speak human...yet. "She says, 'Inuyasha is sleeping peacefully and should be disturbed...with KIKYO!' Kikyo is sleeping right beside Inuyasha?" said Shippo making his jaw drop to the floor as he was only kidding when he said he smelled Kikyo's scent to make Inuyasha mad earlier.

Everyone was in shock as well as worried that Kikyo was only pretending to sleep and she would do something to Inuyasha during his slumber that would hurt or even worse she would...kill him. "Why aren't you with him now Kilala?" said Kagome who was clearly furious that the dead priestess was with Inuyasha and everyone knew that given the chance she would "sit" Inuyasha the moment she saw him in the morning...if he lived to see it at all.

Kilala silently chose to ignore Kagome's angry "hurt Inuyasha" look as she growled and moaned again for Shippo to translate what she was saying. "Kilala says, 'I know they are fine because I watched as Kikyo was sleeping peacefully next Inuyasha. They both really wanted this so their dream of being together even for one night as they always picture it could be fulfilled...even for one night.' Wow I never thought Inuyasha was such a nice guy," said Shippo who was in truth too young to understand relationships and how love is suppose to feel.

'Shippo is right about Inuyasha for once. I mean Inuyasha being romantic with Kikyo? That doesn't sound like the Inuyasha I know from all the time he's been with us and he didn't even act like that with Kagome. Why can't the monk be like that? All he does is grope me or flirt with women in every passing village. I know when we entered I saw him eyeing a few women, which I have to hurt him for later,' thought Sango as she felt her heart wish for something more then the monks usual lecherous ways and was starting to wonder how Inuyasha would be romantic with her if they became more then friends.

'Man I could take a few pointers from Inuyasha to swoon the ladies with the way he is acting and maybe even Sango too if I'm lucky. Maybe I can have more then one woman to bare my children?' thought Miroku who put on a calm face while having the perverted and lecherous thoughts run through his head.

"What should we do guys? Should we just let Inuyasha stay where he is? I mean is it safe to leave him like this after what he heard when we talked about his past?" said Shippo as he was naturally still unsure of the whole Inuyasha sleeping with Kikyo situation.

"Isn't it obvious? We wake them up, kill Kikyo, and move on with the search for the remaining jewel shards in the morning plain and simple," said Kagome as she was ready to raise her voice enough for the two to hear her.

She never got the chance as she heard a loud growl coming from Kilala who head butted Kagome onto her butt after landing several feet do to the impact of the hit. Everyone just looked at Kilala in shock as the cat demon looked at all of them and she basically took charge. She motioned them to go back to the house with a look that made them know to try anything or they would face her fury. Sango didn't really mind as she had seen Kilala become very protective of Inuyasha before tonight and it was only fair to respect the cat demon as she always did.

Shippo and Miroku was slightly more hesitant as they wanted to see the two together to see how they looked together, but the look in Kilala's eyes stomped that out quickly. Kagome was harder to turn then the others as she even tried to maneuver herself around the demon form of Kilala only for the cat demon to swing the back end of her body in the girl's path blocking her from advancing, while using her front left paw to knock the girl down again...hard. Seeing as she couldn't get around Kilala Kagome finally gave up for the moment knowing her day of reckoning would come and Inuyasha would be the one to feel it. 'Just wait till morning Inuyasha and then will see just how loving you really are when I 'sit' you into your own grave!' thought Kagome as she dusted the dirt off her clothes and went back with the others back to the castle.

(Later- In the Morning)

The sun rose from the depth of the earth as it did every moment of the day when it started shining brightly on the trees and earth with its heated light. When the light hit Inuyasha and Kikyo the change in his body was immediate as his muscles increased noticeably, his black hair became silver, his hands were that of claws, and his demon teeth came with the one tip of his fang sticking out past his lip. Kikyo, unbeknown to Inuyasha had secretly woken up before the sun rose to retrieve souls from her soul collectors, but did it silently from her resting spot as to not awaken Inuyasha. She watched the transformation from human back to half-demon first hand and felt that despite the change Inuyasha was still Inuyasha.

The only difference now to her was that she knew that there was more then just one side of him then the brash half-demon she knew and once loved...or still loved as she was still unsure at the moment if she did love the boy...no MAN anymore. 'Perhaps...I should stay with him a little longer to find out myself. However, my reincarnation will most likely not enjoy that and most like take it out on him with the rosary that I ironically made for him all those years ago. The fact that she hasn't taken them off proves that she doesn't care for him like I do. She is just using him to do her bidding and every time he even tries to be himself she 'sits' him for it to prevent him from having any independent thoughts,' thought Kikyo as she was filled with sadness for Inuyasha for what he had endured while anger at her reincarnation for her foolishness at the way she treated him.

Inuyasha at that moment had decided to open his eyes letting his amber like orbs to now look upon the now an awakened Kikyo. He could easily tell she was deep in thought at the moment about something by the look on her face though if it involved him or not he wasn't sure. "Hey...are you all right Kikyo?" said Inuyasha in a calm voice like he had when Kikyo confronted just last night making her look his way surprised that his voice was so kind even as a half-demon thus proving that there was more to Inuyasha then most people knew about.

Y-yes Inuyasha I'm fine. It's just that I was wondering about a few things," said Kikyo, who was slightly surprised at her brief second of a stutter after Inuyasha had spoken in such a soft voice.

"Anything involving me?" said Inuyasha with curiosity with a small mix of kind joking thrown in the middle.

"Actually yes my thoughts did pertain to you and the group you travel with," said Kikyo who smiled for a moment before going serious making Inuyasha go serious as well.

"What kind thoughts?" said Inuyasha in a serious yet calm and quiet voice as he felt it would ruin the moment of bear silence if he acted too brash and straight forward towards Kikyo.

"That if you go back my reincarnation that is that girl will continue to control you with the rosary I'm ashamed to say I created all those years ago. I have seen as well as heard from Kaede how she treats you Inuyasha and I would have never done what she has for being what you are," said Kikyo as her eyes filled with sadness and anger mixing both together.

"What do you suggest I do? I can't remove the rosary from my neck as it prevent the wearer from doing that," said Inuyasha holding her a little closer breathing in her scent while ignoring the smell of graveyard soil.

He was focusing on her one true scent that he had almost forgotten about, but now after smelling her he remembered fully what she smelled like all those years ago. "Leave them Inuyasha and I will follow you anywhere you go. Even if it is just to fight that spider that is Naraku in effort to recover the sacred jewel shards to make it whole once more. The way that girl treats you it's...its wrong," said Kikyo in an almost pleading voice as she gripped Inuyasha's shirt tighter putting her head deep into the shirt smelling the scent of forest, and the taste from the morning dew that was like mountain spring water to her.

Inuyasha was shocked for a good 10 seconds before his mind came back to his body as he personally considered the option of leaving the others. It WAS a very tempting offer in its entirety in going with her on just a two person journey with her. However, as of now as things currently stood he just couldn't...not yet anyway. "I'm sorry Kikyo, but even if I could give up traveling with Kagome I couldn't abandon the others after all we've been through together on our journey. I want nothing more to travel with you, but do leave the others would make worse then Naraku himself. I hope you understand," said Inuyasha holding her in his embrace meaning every word he spoke.

Kikyo could only remain silent at the moment as she could do nothing else, but continue to embrace him for a little while longer before he had to head back to the group. 'Maybe just maybe...I can at least give him something for having fulfilled something I have long to do with him as a way of saying thanks,' thought Kikyo as she moved her hands upward silently around to the beads of the rosary till she had a firm grip on them.

"Kikyo...what are you doing?" said Inuyasha as he could feel her movements when her hands touch his silvery hair when she was moving towards the rosary.

"Doing what my reincarnation should have done a long time ago, but was too selfish, too ignorant, and too arrogant to see the truth about you Inuyasha...even when it was right in front of her. This is my gift to you Inuyasha as it is the only gift I can give," said Kikyo as she lifted the rosary over Inuyasha's now surprised face filled head bring it down for him to see in front of him before she then summoned her spiritual power and destroyed it in her hands turning it into dust that blew out of her hands through the morning wind.

"Kikyo...I...I...all I can say is...thank you," said Inuyasha as he then did something neither saw coming as he leaned down to her and gave her his gift to her that only he knew how to give...a kiss right on her lips.

The kiss itself lasted for a good as well as unbelievable 5 long minutes without breathing though with Kikyo she really didn't have to breathe, but it was a reflex she was so use to she didn't know how to just stop. When they did eventually stop both were now breathing heavily as it was a gift that was enjoyable to both of them. "Thank you Inuyasha," said Kikyo as she hugged once more and then got up from the ground with Inuyasha doing the same seconds later after her.

"I should probably get back before they start looking for me after not returning from last night," said Inuyasha who suddenly felt he suddenly had twice the strength he had before running through his body.

"If you don't mind Inuyasha I...I would like to accompany you to the village and be with you...just a little longer," said Kikyo picking up her bow and putting it behind her along with her quiver of arrows.

Inuyasha thought about it and was worried how the others would react to Kikyo being near them and how would the villagers react to seeing him again. Granted most wouldn't actually recognize him, but the older ones he knew were alive after that event would have told some horrible exaggerated story about him. A story about him being a half-demon monster that they should stay away from and while what he did was a horrible thing he was NOT a monster at all. However, he doubted the villagers would attack him as long as Kikyo was nearby and his friends would protect despite Kikyo being around him if only a little bit longer then he expected to be with her. "I could use the pleasant company as I know it won't be good when we enter the village and the villagers see me," said Inuyasha in a slightly depressed voice.

"Don't worry Inuyasha I won't let any of them hurt you as long as I'm around and have anything to say about it," said Kikyo who wrapped her arms around Inuyasha one more time and gave him a hugging embrace to assure him everything would be okay.

"Thanks Kikyo let's go back now," said Inuyasha as Kikyo disengaged the hug and the two walked back feeling better then they had ever felt before.

(Meanwhile in a castle elsewhere...)

Naraku was sitting down in his usual room of his miasma mist filled castle all the while enjoying himself as he bathed in the sacred jewels tainted energy. All the while looking through Kanna's mirror seeing Inuyasha and Kikyo walking back to the villager the half-demon lived in as a child. "Soon the jewel will be complete and I will have anything my heart desires. Including your death Inuyasha and yours too...Kikyo," said Naraku right before Kagura entered the room.

"You called Naraku," said Kagura in her venom filled yet hidden within her fake sweet voice as she walked closer to the one who held her heart and life in his hands.

"Yes. Take a swarm of some low level demons that I have no use for to attack Inuyasha and his little group of jewel shard hunters. I want the half-demon dead before the day is out. Also if you get a chance...kill Kikyo and bring me both their heads to me to hang on my castle wall so they can be my trophies," said Naraku as he was going to get rid of Inuyasha and Kikyo once and for all.

"Of course Lord Naraku," said Kagura hiding the hate in her voice with a false sense of sweet happiness in her voice as before as she turned around and left the room.

(Back at the village)

Kagome was practically fuming with steam out of her ears while the others were slightly more worried for about two hours after they woke up. The reason being was it had been two hours with no signs of Inuyasha returning and everyone being tense about the hatred the villagers might produce once they saw Inuyasha. 'I can't wait to see Inuyasha again then give him the 'sitting' of a lifetime!' thought Kagome as she tapped her foot on the steps waiting for Inuyasha's return.

It was then that they heard rusting from the trees and bushes not far from the large estate, which they were all outside of. It was then they all heard something they never thought possible with Inuyasha...genuine laughter and happiness without the rough edge like side of his demon. It was soon followed by the sound of laughter and giggling from a female throat that could only belong to one person...Kikyo. "Are you kidding? The monk that you travel with actually said that?" said Kikyo giggling at the apparent gossip that got everyone's attention including Miroku's.

"Yep! In the village about 3-4 days away from here while Sango was out with Kilala were out looking around for any hostile demons and Kagome was elsewhere I saw that lecherous monk flirt with the village Elder's daughter and asking her to 'bare his children as an act of Buddha'. Of course when Sango and Kilala came back he quickly left the blushing girl alone and never spoke to her after that because Sango was always around. The poor guy's face was pale as snow till we left. I think he was afraid the village Elder's daughter would run after him to say yes to his request and then have Sango pound him into the ground for doing such a horribly lecherous thing," said Inuyasha laughing his head off at the monks action.

Miroku look over at Sango who was eyeing him with a hate filled and anti-lecherous face that result in a BOOM sound with Miroku hitting dirt face first. The source of this rather funny event was courtesy of Sango and her giant demon slaying boomerang that was also the lecherous monk bashing boomerang of doom. Finally Shippo while finding Miroku's current unconscious state funny ran up to Inuyasha with a worried look on his face as he was seeing a side of Inuyasha he never saw before and noticed something was missing from Inuyasha's attire. "Inuyasha are you all right? You look kind of...different!" said Shippo while Kilala in her little cat form ran up shortly after and jumped on Inuyasha's shoulder purring affectionately trying to gain his ever loving attention.

"I'm fine Shippo I just had a good night's rest with someone important to me. I'm sorry for leaving you guys, but as you know this place hasn't been what you call...hospitable in the past to me," said Inuyasha in a slightly sad voice, but it was barely noticeable as he was stroking Kilala's chin under her fur causing the cat demon to purr like there was no tomorrow.

"Yeah Hiroshi kind of gave us the rundown on what you did after your mother died and went psycho on everyone," said Shippo rubbing the back of his head in an embarrassed sort of way.

"And non of you hate me?" said Inuyasha curiously while looking from Shippo to Sango and then the other two (Miroku still on the ground) hoping they didn't hate or fear him for what he did.

"Inuyasha how could you think that? We are your friends and what you did...anyone of us would have done in your place in a heartbeat," said Sango who felt something stir in her heart at the moment as she walked by a now coming to Miroku.

"I guess you're right Sango. I just don't have the most...spotless record when it comes to people caring for me like you all do," said Inuyasha stroking Kilala's back as he now held the cat demon in his left arm while stroking the cat with his right.

It was then that Shippo squinted his eyes and stood on the tips of his toes to get a good look at Inuyasha only to fall flat on his fox tailed, but when he realized the truth about what was missing from Inuyasha at that moment. "Inuyasha...you...you don't have the rosary on your neck anymore!" said Shippo who was slightly worried now because that meant the half-demon could wail on him if he decided to do something that put him in the way of Inuyasha's territorial nature.

"WHAT?" yelled Kagome as she ran from where she was and up to Inuyasha looking at where the rosary should have been then back at Inuyasha with hateful eyes and a scowl to match.

"I take it you disapprove of such a thing Kagome?" said Kikyo sarcastically as it was in truth more of a statement then a question as the undead priestess smiled knowingly that it upset her reincarnation.

"Of course it does! How am I suppose to stop Inuyasha when he goes crazy? Or gets out of line? Or restrain him when Koga come around?" said Kagome raising her voice more then she really needed to getting the much unwanted attention (Inuyasha's mind anyway) towards the group.

Inuyasha somehow remained calm and stared at Kagome with all seriousness meeting her angry glare with his own. His amber eyes that blazed with a new more powerful fire then before and everyone around him knew it and felt it too. "You mean control me Kagome. To control me like a pet from your time where animals not just dogs, but cats, and other animals are in cages waiting to be sold to potential owners. Whenever Koga is around he tries to get you to be his. I take from the way your acting you want to be his? If that's the case he can have you for all I care because I want nothing to do with you anymore. When have I ever hurt you whenever I act like myself my ONE true self? If you can't accept me for who and what I am then what you told me before was a complete lie! And in case you are wondering...Kikyo she is coming with us for a little while whether you like it or not," said Inuyasha as his eyes seemed to glow an amber gold color, but it also could have been the trick of the sunlight.

Kagome was furious as her control over Inuyasha was no more and no doubt at the hands of the woman she was suppose to be the reincarnation of. At that point Kagome did the only thing she could at that moment in time...she slapped Inuyasha and stormed off past the others towards the inner area of the village. "Damn you Inuyasha!" said Kagome as she looked over to him one more time and ran off.

"How she is your reincarnation I'll never know Kikyo," said Inuyasha as he let out a sigh and returned his attention to the group who he was now the center of again with Kilala being a very close second as she was enjoying his attention a great deal, which was quite clear to everyone.

"I know you feel some form of sorrow in your heart for her Inuyasha, but do not trouble yourself over it. One can only hope that in time she will see what she has been blinded to all this time," said Hiroshi walking out of his house with his cane with a smile on his white bearded and hair colored head.

Inuyasha smiled at the old man, but the smile faded slightly when he noticed one of the servants saw him with a face of shock and fear before the said servant ran out of his line of sight. "I think I've been found out by one of your servants Hiroshi. Thank you for your hospitality and taking us in yesterday, but I think we should depart," said Inuyasha as his voice had an air of seriousness that meant what he said was final.

"I guess we should go get Kagome then," said Sango sighing knowing this was going to go bad for everyone...especially Inuyasha.

"I suggest you hurry as the words my servant's tongues speak at a fast pace though these halls of my home and out into the village faster then I would like them too," said Hiroshi as his smile left him and a wrinkled frown appeared on his forehead as he knew the news of Inuyasha would spread faster then the group could move to retrieve the girl and leave.

As Inuyasha (with Kilala in his arm) head out to look for Kagome he cold easily see the shocking stares, fearful looks, and the hatred coming from most of the villagers. All the while those with children moved their kids away from him whispering to them something that Inuyasha could only guess involved him and the words "half-demon" and "monster" in the same sentence. It didn't take long for Inuyasha to locate Kagome who was standing with her back turned to him with her arm crossed over each other at chest level. "Kagome it is time to go we've overstayed our welcome," said Inuyasha as he placed a hand on her shoulder, which she instantly knocked away as if his hand was covered in a diseased and was contagious on contact.

"Don't touch me! Leave me alone you filthy half-demon. I want nothing to do with you," said Kagome snapping at him as she turned around to face him with hate filled eyes as her hands were clenched fist, and her teeth were shut as she seethed at his appearance that Inuyasha remembered from his childhood.

"Leave her alone you half-demon!" said one woman shouting at him while others started to get involved with this and did the same.

"Yeah she's done nothing to you so why are you bothering her you damn monster," said another a male villager, who picked up a small rock and threw it at Inuyasha who ever so gracefully moved his head slightly as to not be hit by it.

"Stay away from my son you beast!" yelled another voice that Inuyasha could recognize as he was so deep in thought his instinct had taken over for him as he was going deep into his dark memories about what he was feeling.

Kagome clearly saw this and was half angry half afraid, but in the end her anger one out as she slapped him and pushed him away from her making him fair game to the villagers. Kilala seeing this leaped out of Inuyasha's arms and transformed into her more demonic state staring hatefully at the girl in front of her for betraying Inuyasha as if he were just nothing more then a piece garbage. 'I kill her for this!' thought Kilala, but before they could the others appeared and using their own talents of persuasion took the three (Kilala, Inuyasha, and Kagome), who were the unintentional reason (except Kagome) for the very angry mob of villagers away from them before things escalated even further.

Once they made it to a more quiet area near Hiroshi's home almost everyone of the group was now in shock at the hate that they witnessed for Inuyasha. It was unbelievable and it was nearly unspeakable much less unfathomable to comprehend that a single village cold hate a half-demon like that. "This is all your fault Inuyasha if you had just been a good dog and not had Kikyo remove the rosary on your neck everything would be fine," said Kagome who was halfway to yelling at Inuyasha not really caring about any if not all of the possible consequences of saying that to him.

To say everyone was disgusted by Kagome was an understatement like mountains are tall and Naraku was evil. However, no one was more pissed by Kagome's actions and words then none other then Inuyasha who was trembling in rage and anger at that moment. "His fault? What are you talking about? Kagome you made a scene in front of an entire village that hates Inuyasha. It was never his fault to begin with," said Sango as she wanted to do nothing more then to pound the girl into nothingness, but when she saw Inuyasha visibly shaking with rage and his eyes flashing a dangerous golden color she stop in wonder at the passion and pain that was in the depth of those eyes.

"Like I really care about that far into his past as it's his present state that has me angry as he should be collared and loyal like a good dog!" said Kagome making everyone gasp at her words as they never thought it was possible for her to say such things.

"Kagome...shut up right now!" said Inuyasha his rage and demonic tone clearly evident in his voice making everyone including Kagome look and gasp at Inuyasha as he was beyond anything filled with rage as his hands were bleeding fists from digging in his clawed finger into his palms.

Fortunately, for Kagome, who had now stepping back from fear Kilala, Sango, Shippo, and Kikyo embraced him in a hug of sorts to make him calm down as they didn't want her dead...yet as she was still a valuable member of the group. "Its okay Inuyasha calm down or you will go crazy. Please do this for us," said Sango in a whispery as she was able to grab his left arm.

"Yes Inuyasha your hatred should be channeled at killing Naraku and retrieving the jewel shards to make it whole again. To waste it on her would be a serious insult to your much higher intelligence when it comes to strategy in these matters," said Kikyo as she was on his right arm with her head resting on his shoulder.

Meanwhile Shippo was hugging Inuyasha's left leg too scared to say anything and let the sense of touch have Inuyasha know he was their. Kilala was thinking along those same lines, but for different and obvious reasons as she was on his right rubbing her now little cat form against him purring as the sound usually calmed him down. After a good 20-30 seconds it seemed Inuyasha had calmed down and he finally composed himself though the look of anger in his eyes was still their. "You both are right. I'm sorry if I scared you all. Lets go before we cause more of a seen. Shippo tell Hiroshi were leaving and thank him once more for letting us stay the night and for all he has done," said Inuyasha in a calmer voice that told them Inuyasha was not as angry as before and everything was fine.

(10 minutes later)

Shippo returned stating that Hiroshi accepted the thank you and that Inuyasha and all of his friends were welcome at his estate anytime they needed his help. Without any further of a delay the group now plus one undead priestess walked along their current path. All the while the reincarnation of the undead priestess Kagome was plotting her own thing against Inuyasha as she was not going to take this lying down. 'All I need is a really good opportunity to employ my plan into action and then...I'll make sure Inuyasha suffers so much he will be begging me to have himself pinned to that tree for another term of 50 years,' thought Kagome as she glared daggers at Inuyasha back while the said half-demon was secretly enjoying the affection of Kilala, Sango, and of course Kikyo all the while Miroku side mumbling about "Inuyasha being lucky" making Shippo have a bubble of a question mark over his head.

Not far too away from the jewel shard hunter group was a girl, toad, two head dragon, and the Lord of the Western Lands Sesshomorru. This much smaller group was headed near the Inuyasha's group, but for different purpose. It was to see a powerful shaman named Omen that Sesshomorru wished to speak to in regards to having him possibly re-grow his arm lost arm that he lost at the hands of Inuyasha over Tetsuigia at their father's grave. 'Soon I will be perfect again and Tetsuigia will be mine!' thought Sesshomorru as he lead the group deep into the forest near to his destination.

Also not far away from them Kagura was on her way to intercept the group with her small army of demons knowing this was futile against the group of jewel shard hunters. However, under the circumstances it was either this or death by Naraku's clutches and she didn't want to die at the hands of that evil spidery freak. Her interception point at the request of Naraku was a place that was a place where all things alive did not live long. This evil place where the trap would be set and where Naraku intended to kill both Inuyasha and Kikyo scared her to no end even if she had an army of demons to protect her. It was dark place that was known only by two words...Valley of Death.

(A/N: Hey everybody thought I'd let you know I saw the reviews I got and I was quite surprised I got one less then last time. Why? Don't tell me you don't like it! (sobs anime style) Nah I doubt that's it, but only one (same) person has me on alert and favorites list. (only one) Anyway I better say this now before I forget. Okay first I got some bad news (no not writer's block I'm covered for this story...I think) it will unfortunately take me awhile to produce another chapter after this (I know you're upset. STOP THROWING THINGS AT ME!) because of my job (yes I got a job) and I work late afternoon to night 4 days a week while I'm too lazy (like Shikamaru) to write it in the morning as I like to sleep in (so I made this chapter EXTRA LONG for you guys). However, (wait I have a more to say?) I have some good news. (I do?) SHUT UP! (okay) From what I gather in the last 3 reviews of the second chapter I learned that some of you would want me to have an Inuyasha/Sango/Kilala pairing (I'm shocked!). While this is highly irregular seeing as I have never done that before with story I am willing to consider it. Also because of that I have decided (through my infinite wisdom) that those votes count for both characters. Meaning as it stands now Kikyo has 2 votes, Sango has 2 and Kilala has a remarkable 4. If I find that Sango and Kilala are in the lead I will put the two with Inuyasha, but if Kikyo takes the lead or is a close second...well I'll cross that bridge when I get their. Nuff said. (REVIEW PLEASE!) I TOLD YOU TO BE QUIET! (Sorry master) That's better. Damn second personality from mixing all those 2 liter sodas and family size candy bars together while listening to Aerosmith's-Dream On over and over again.)
