Getting to Know One Another
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Where are you going anyway?" Inuyasha asked.
"I don't know" Kagome replied. Inuyasha stopped and stared at her, rolling his eyes.
"Great you don't know where you're going. Well, I guess this is better then crappy chains" Inuyasha croaked. He lifted his arms to his head and yawned then sniffed the air, with his eyes closed, thinking.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked inquisitively. She looked at him like he was peculiar (A/N: Which he kinda was, I mean he does have doggy-ears etc.).
"Sniffing out a place where we can rest for the night. I need some good rest after hanging up there so long"
"Did they even feed you?" Kagome stopped to ask. He opened one eye and looked at her.
"No" was her only reply. "Why do you care!?" he snapped. Kagome jumped at his snap and shrugged.
"Just wondering. Usually they do feed the prisoners. I wonder why they didn't feed you." Kagome pondered. Inuyasha snorted.
"It's because I'm a hanyou" he retorted.
"You mean a demon?" she asked. She had forgotten that he was demon after they had walked a good way from the palace. Kagome turned back and they started walking again.
"No, I'm a hanyou. A half-demon, I wish I was a full demon, but hey. Life sucks for me" he said. He looked around. They were in the middle of a ring of trees.
Kagome had looked down wondering. 'Life is so hard for him, I guess, from what I've heard. Meanwhile I've been pampered at the palace' she thought. She looked at a root and sighed happily. She rubbed her legs trying to rub the tiredness out of them.
"Oh, it's nice to sit down" Kagome sighed happily.
CRASH!
Kagome looked in front of her to see Inuyasha buried in the dirt. She gasped and ran over to the buried hanyou. He pulled himself out and spat out the dirt and gagged. She put her hand on his back and looked down at his face and cringed.
"Are you okay, Inuyasha?" she asked.
"Don't say that word!" he yelled. Kagome jumped back and stared at him. Kagome tried to think of a word that might have triggered Inuyasha.
"Do you mean si.!" she gasped as Inuyasha clamped his hand over her mouth.
"Don't say that word, alright" she nodded.

Inuyasha had climbed up a thick, old tree and was leaning on the trunk from a sturdy branch.
"So what were you doing in jail?" Kagome asked.
"Why were you running away?" Inuyasha asked.
"I asked first" she stammered.
"But I asked second" Inuyasha snorted.
"Fine. My father said if I don't get married or at least have a boyfriend by my nineteenth birthday he'll get me a husband himself. It's in two months in May. Well maybe three. I don't remember. I'm eighteen" she explained.
"I couldn't tell" Inuyasha mumbled. Kagome made a face.
"It's your turn. Why were you in jail?!" she yelled.
"A little boy wouldn't answer my question so I threatened him, so he cried and his mother came out and started whacking me with a broom. That little wizard from your palace came saying "NO TRESPASSING, DEMON!" and doing this little dust thingy-ma-gin-ger. So they took me to jail, probably to starve me to death. That's it" he said very bored-like as if it was a stupid fairy tale he didn't believe.
"Why did you threaten the little boy?" Kagome asked.
"He wouldn't tell me where the bathroom was" he said.
Kagome who had climbed three branches up the tree Inuyasha was sitting on now sweat-dropped and fell to the ground. He looked down at her questionably. He jumped down to see if she was alright.
"You are so confusing!" she stammered.
"When a guy's gotta go a guy's got to go" Inuyasha murmured.
