Yasha stood quietly while he mentally counted down to when his father would start to lose his shit. And wasn't the least bit surprised that he barely made it to four before Inu no Taisho began to well and truly, freak the hell out. Not that Yasha could blame him any.

He had come to the mall with his two biological pups and his newly adopted one, he was bound to flip out from time to time if any one of them vanished. But two at once- seemed to be pushing the limits of his sanity. Yasha noted with a semi awkward looking grin as he watched his father run back and forth like a chicken with it's head cut off.

Trying to catch a whiff of his pups scents so that he could track them down and assure himself that the two were fine. However with every other demon and human present in the damned store, he could barely smell them at all, much less tell where they may or may not have scampered off to.

Finally having enough of running back and forth trying to catch their scents, Inu no Taisho grew frustrated and decided to try simply calling for them. "Sesshomaru! Kagome!" His voice didn't have to be much louder than his normal pitch or tone for Sesshomaru's sharp ears to pick up on his frustration and anxiety.

Whereas Kagome's little human ears wouldn't be able to pick up his call unless she was in the same general area that he and Yasha were in.

Tilting his head slightly to the side, he listened for any sort of reply and caught a vague reply from his eldest pup in their language, "Female needed to eat- went to procure food. On our way back." Sighing in relief at Sesshomaru's response, he was able to determine that his pups would return to where they were within a few more moments.

Knowing Sesshomaru, he had taken his new pup to bond as well as see to her needs. Which was good. At least he didn't have to worry about Kagome being toted off by some pedophile akin to her now dickless father.

Still...he had at least wished that his eldest had had the common sense to warn him of what he planned. Though he didn't understand why he hadn't been able to sniff his wayward pups out. Granted he knew that his eldest pup tended to dabble in magicks and alchemy and such from time to time. Hell at one point when he had been several hundred years younger, he had wanted to be a magician- and yes, there were some spells that could hide one's scent, aura, and even one's presence; allowing one to sneak up on others quite easily.

And yes, Sesshomaru had perfected those particular spells, however he didn't think that he would be dumb enough to use them in a public area such as this one. Where any number of things could and usually did- tend to go horribly, horribly wrong.

"Hey dad, did Sessho use one of those pesky spells again?"

Inu no Taisho didn't exactly give a verbal reply. He did however bare his fangs for a moment and growl. The sound was low enough not to disturb the others in the area, but no less threatening to Yasha's ears.

"I see," Was all Yasha said as he crossed his arms over his chest and looked in the direction where his brother and Kagome had vanished, finally making out Sesshomaru's tall figure as he walked beside their adopted sister with several clothes hangers with various outfits slung over one shoulder. "It looks like he stopped a time or two so Kagome could collect a few things."

Inu no Taisho turned his head to see for himself if Sesshomaru had been held up a little bit, and huffed slightly as some of his anxiety and anger disappeared as his two pups finally rejoined them.

Sesshomaru gave his father an apologetic look and then held the clothing out for him to see as he said, "Sorry. We would have been back sooner had she not have gotten distracted by these."

Taisho took the outfits and looked them over, noting that they were a little bit more...classy design wise than most children his youngest pup's age liked to wear. However, if she liked them, he would not say anything about them. Unless...did she perhaps think that she needed to get some more outfits like these to uphold his family's image?

If so, he may need to tell her not to bother. Yasha had more or less ruined their family image by wearing threadbare jeans with holes in the ass and a Walking Dead T-shirt to the last formal party that Taisho had held.

Still, the outfits were nice, and would look rather lovely on his new pup.

Especially if he could find the right accessories to go with them.

Draping the outfits over his arm he looked down at Kagome as she searched through a rack of nice formal dresses, the very same one that she had been looking at earlier before Sesshomaru had hauled her off to parts unknown. She found a nice snow colored dress with a soft pink satin ribbon belt, a black dress with black floral lace sleeves and the hem of the skirt and handed it to him before moving on to check out some sweaters a few feet away.

"Sesshomaru..." Taisho said in a low voice, so as not to distract his youngest pup. "Never use another one of those damned spells on Kagome again. If anything had happened to her-" The warning was loud and clear to Sesshomaru. If anything had happened to Kagome, his father would have gleefully skinned him alive.

But then he had already known that when he had taken her to the café to eat something. So he couldn't exactly say that he was surprised by his father's unspoken threat.

Yasha said nothing as he looked between the two knowing that to do so now, would be a bad idea since they might change their attention from each other to him and frankly- he wanted to live a while longer thank you very much. Kagome however, had no idea what was going on between the two. And as such, had no compunctions about continuing to place herself between them, thus drawing their attention away from one another as she carefully handed Taisho four overly large sweaters.

One in mint green, one in aqua, one in lavender, and one in cream.

So to try and ease a little bit of the tension between his pop and his brother, Yasha started a small argument with Kagome about the mint sweater and the aqua one both looking the same.

Which seemed to do the trick since soon all three of them were arguing with her.

"They look the same Kagome. Why not put one up and grab a different color?" Taisho suggested as he tried to hand her one of the two sweaters to put back only the jump back, startled when she snarled at him and then growled.

"They are not the same! One is mint green and the other is aqua, and I'm getting them both!" Before she then turned on her heel and stomped away from the trio of puzzled inu's. Not just about the sweaters but her behavior as well.

To their knowledge human females didn't typically snarl at the males of their kind like a full blooded demoness would. However Yasha's curious words sort of...shed some light on things for them. Well, sort of.

"Hn. I wonder if she's starting her monthly?" The pup said as he, his father and brother watched Kagome disappear a little ways from them to grab some more stuff. Leggings this time, by the looks of things.

He had no sooner said the words than he was grabbed by the front of his shirt by both his dad and his brother and hoisted up into the air while both of them stared at him and began to fire various questions at him lightening fast.

"Kagome has a monthly?"

"When did this occur?"

"How long has it been going on?"

"Will we have to brave the feminine products isle of a local market to buy her things?"

"Well don't just hang there- say something!" Both of the inu's practically shouted at the boy as they took a moment to shake him until he was dizzy. Once he was able to get them to stop shaking him, he tapped the both of their wrists, forcing them to release him before they stressed out even further.

Once he was back on the floor again, Yasha straightened his shirt and then said, "Yes she has a monthly. It's been happening for several months. Yes, we will have to brave the feminine product isle of a local market- and you will forget that I said anything about this because if she come's after me- I'm using you both as meat shields. Now, I'm going to go and grab a pink sweater to add to her pile. And no one will say anything more about the sweaters or her monthly. Got it?"

The two nodded absently as Yasha huffed and then walked off.
