Hi everyone! Nice to be back, I'll try to update at least once a month from now on, it would be so much better to update monthly... So... Yeah... There has been concern the Sakura seems a little bit too strong... I realize this. So I think I'll explain a little something about her character.

She has been in numerous wars, and she isn't as powerful as she acts. She's mostly acting so that the weaker demons leave her alone (I.E. Jakken...LOL...).

Disclaimer: I do NOT own InuYasha; it is owned by Rumiko Takahashi, I just have the privilege of being able to write a fan fiction using his characters...

Chapter...Uhh... 6?

"You mean you actually got the damn sword!" InuYasha exclaimed. Jumping to his feet. After all, you never know if your sister, who just so happens to be directly related with SesshoMaru, will attack you.

"Yes, I did. And could you please quiet down," Sakura replied, glaring at him. "Or else I really will attack you."
"Wow, Sakura, You must be really powerful," Shippo said. He had such a look of admiration on his face. " I bet you could beat InuYasha single-handedly."
"To tell you the truth, I'm only acting. I'm probably one of the most powerful healers in the world, but aside from a few self defensive techniques, I'm no good with an ordinary sword," Sakura answered.

" Then what good are you going to be against Naraku!" InuYasha shouted. Behind him, Kagome was shaking her head. He was acting like such a fool.

"I thought I asked you to be quite," Sakura muttered. "I'm no good with an ordinary sword, I just said that too, you must have been zoned out or something."

"I was not 'zoned out,' I was too busy making sure this place was committed to my memory to hear you completely," He answered, looking around.

"You were zoned out, I'll be surprised if you weren't paying more attention to your girlfriend," Sakura said with a laugh.

"Who Kagome?"
"No, the brunette," Sakura answered. "Kagome seems to sensible too be your girl friend."
"Sango?" InuYasha said.

"No, I was talking about the monk! Of course Sango!"

"No offense Sango, But you're just not type," InuYasha said, shrugging.

"I feel exactly the same way," Sango answered. She was definitely not fazed in any way by Sakura's earlier comment.

"Sakura, It's getting kind of late, is there any place where we can stay?" Kagome said. Looking up at the steadily darkening sky.
" I'm sure SesshoMaru would be able to put up with you all for a few nights," Sakura replied. She looked towards SesshoMaru, and then at Sheeba.

"We'd be a happy too," Sheeba said happily, much to Sesshy's inner distress. He didn't want InuYasha anywhere near his home, it would be too embarrassing to have him know that his home looked like a common lord's home.

"I suppose you could, all the kids left this morning, so the house is pretty empty," SesshoMaru said in his usual "I don't care" manner. He certainly wasn't going to make a big deal out of it; he had to remain as dignified as ever.

"Thank you SesshoMaru, This means a lot to us," Kagome said, smiling brightly. This disturbed InuYasha greatly, after all, he just found out he has a sister, and now THIS. He was paranoid already, and the innocent smile (according to him) had deeper meaning (InuYasha: I know it did! It had to!).

Well, needless to say, they all went to SesshoMaru's place anyway.

(At SesshoMaru's home)

"And here I thought you'd be living in Father's old home," InuYasha Said. He was still shocked that the place looked so common, especially since it was SesshoMaru that lived there. He was expecting a big, dark, ominous castle, and he got a big, happy, inconspicuous mansion, talk about a shocker.

"That place it too run down." (Did Inu-Taisho even ever live in one single place? I have no idea... but I bet he did...) " Besides, that place is too dreary for the kids, and Sheeba refuses to live there."
"I'm not going to live in a big stone castle, it's bad for everyone's mental state," She muttered, crossing her arms, and getting this look of annoyance at the thought of living there.

"Is there any particular reason why we're still standing out here?" Inuyasha asked. It was getting darker by the minute, and the sun was almost all the way down.

"No reason," Sheeba said. "It's a beautiful night though."

"Can we go in side?" InuYasha complained. "I have no intention of staying out here all night because it's beautiful."

"Fine, let's go inside," Sheeba said, she wasn't exactly happy that InuYasha was being so rude.

I think I'll end this chapter here, I'm tired, and I need sleep. C ya!
