Chapter 8: Order of elimination: part 2: Scars and bruises

Last time: That said she started to 'drag'…well attempted to drag Sesshomaru down the path….Kouga gaping after them.

Lady Nefertiti: I updated earlier because I'm currently working on a one-shot which of course makes no sense as always right? but anyway, so enjoy reading.

"Well that was fun…." Kagome mumbled to herself, not even noticing that she was dragging the demon lord along with her. Her anger towards Kouga caused her grip on Sesshomaru to tighten considerably. Now if he had been a normal human, Kagome would've already choked him to death. She didn't notice that she was muttering incoherent things and insults towards Kouga….a normal human wouldn't be able to pick up what she was saying, but Sesshomaru was a demon.

-Kagome's voice-

"And I'll bet….oh he's always….The insulting….Baka…Inuyasha was right….But he's also…."

-End Kagome's voice-

She then violently shook Sesshomaru, displaying her anger. Sesshomaru shook his head not caring if anyone saw them, this was interesting and fun to see where she went with this….

"Are we going to your home?" Sesshomaru asked her.

Kagome turned and suddenly released her grip on him, face colored a bit with embarrassment. "I….I'm sorry….Sesshomaru. I didn't hurt you did I? I forgot I was holding you….." She got on her tiptoes and touched his cheek with her hand…looking for bruises….

Sesshomaru smirked, "No, it'll take a lot to hurt or bruise me…."

"Oh really?" Kagome raised an eyebrow at him. She got off of her tiptoes and stood normally, crossing her arms, 'Hmm that's interesting.'

Chapter 2- Section 2: Scars/bruises…..

-Now that we have proceeded on to section 2, I say that we start with this category first.

-Well it's a good thing we haven't named any names about who's ugly or sexy yet….of course I'm not that mean….that'll come later……(evil laugh)

-- Does he have any unusual scarring or unknown bruises on his face?

(Cause girl….. if he does I ask you…what's the matter with you and where is your mind?!)

If he sports bruises from:

a.) A previous fight

-or-

b.) Was just born with it, I ask you that you need to set your priorities straight!!

-If he sports a bruise from a previous battle, it should automatically show you that he's a pathetic fighter and cannot fight without getting injured himself.

-If he sports a bruise or scar just because he was born with it……errr….

(I'm not even going to continue on…..like ewww…..)

'Well at least his face isn't hurt.' She thought, giving him a critical look staring at his flawless features….

"What is it?" Sesshomaru asked her.

"I don't believe you." Kagome said.

"What do you mean?" Sesshomaru said.

"I was basically choking you and you should have a red mark or something…." Kagome said.

"Not that I'm saying you're lying….." she continued.

"You need to see a doctor." She said.

"No I don't." Sesshomaru said looking annoyed.

"Yes you do." Kagome said, glaring at him in a way that clearly meant, you'd better not argue with me or else.

Sesshomaru didn't say anymore because she was evading his question. This was the second time he'd asked her if they were going to her home……..why was she not answering him? Was her home so bad? 'What is the future like….she is always here after all……'

-With Inuyasha-

He'd long left Kaede's cabin/hut and just wandered aimlessly through the forest. 'So now that Sota has given me the ultimatum that he doesn't want me in the Future, and Kagome shunned and despises me, I really don't have anyone else to talk to…..'

Inuyasha realized that Kagome was the life of the group and if something happened to her….the whole group was like nothing. 'And Sango just like glared at me as if trying to kill me with her eyes…….' She was always on Kagome's side…..

'And why wouldn't she?' His conscious popped up suddenly. 'You Baka you almost got Kagome killed…..where's your excuse? You don't have one you know, you were wrong….You need to go apologize to someone' and then Inuyasha's conscious disappeared.

But Inuyasha's pride wouldn't let him, he still thought he had been the right one. Kikyo was his love and Kikyo was the one he would be with, when the jewel was completed, with Kagome's help. He had to keep Kikyo alive so he could be with her when Naraku was destroyed and he became a full demon………

(A/N: say what? Did Inuyasha just say he had to keep Kikyo alive? Ha-ha…..)

But where did Kagome fit into all this? "No where." He thought to himself. "She's the one who broke the jewel, she's the one who's gonna fix it and then she can go away to where she came from." Was that too hard for people to understand? Kikyo had always been there first…..she would always be first in his book and that's the way it was gonna be.

"I'll go and say a few things to Kagome," Inuyasha grumbled, "But I won't apologize to her fully….." That said he strode off to where he had caught her scent. 'Which is marred with Sesshomaru's…..' he thought, hoping that when he came across them….they weren't doing anything dirty…..of course he didn't care…..

When he approached the two he wasn't surprised, but a bit disgusted hearing their words…….

-With Kagome and Sesshomaru-

'I don't believe you.'

'What do you mean?'

'You should have a red mark or something….'

'You need to see a doctor….'

'No I don't…..'

Inuyasha cleared his throat and both Kagome and Sesshomaru looked up, surprised to see him.

"Kagome, what's the matter with you?" Inuyasha began.

"Didn't I tell you we were busy?" Sesshomaru said smoothly.

Inuyasha ignored him and continued. "He never needs a doctor, he can heal and do things himself!!"

"When did I ask for your advice baka? You just don't get it do you Inuyasha? I'll help you with the shikon shards, that's what you want right?" Kagome said.

Inuyasha nodded and wondered what she was going to say next. "You hurt me bad, emotionally and physically and I'm just plain mad, not hurt though…..you always backstab me anyway." Kagome continued in a smooth voice. "And it's getting old so if you think that I'm harboring some feelings for you….you are DEAD wrong mister."

Inuyasha's ears drooped, 'How can she make it sound soo bad? Like I committed a murder or something? She's not even angry at me…..she didn't even 'SIT' me……'

He never noticed the smirk on Sesshomaru's face. 'Well it was his loss………'

Lady Nefertiti: And that was chapter 8 !!

Inuyasha: 'Why is Kagome always the voice of reason?'
