Kagomaru

Chapter 2: What exactly is Kagomaru?

(Re-written)

Kagomaru looked at Rin with concern then slowly glanced at Jaken with the look of hatred in Sesshomaru's eyes.

"What did I tell you,"

Then Kagomaru's eyes changed again. Jaken could tell that Kagome had over powered Sesshoumaru. He thought that she was supposed to remain dormant and not realize she wasn't the only one in her body.

"No you are not going to torture a helpless being with my body!" Kagome's voice yelled.

Everyone stared at Kagome in wonder while she and Kagomaru fought with each other.

Miroku got far away from Sango and started to laugh uncontrollably.

Sesshoumaru scoffed in irritation, finally giving up, he realized he just couldn't win against this strong willed girl whom he was sharing this human body with.

Jaken scanned Kagomaru's face, watching the strange array of facial expression come and go. Then came Kagome's satisfied smile, proving to all she had one the argument.

Jaken's mouth opened into a wide grin before he ran up to Kagomaru to thank Kagome for her kindness and strong will.

"Thank you very much Lady Kagome," he began.

Kagome hesitated from the ugly creature and moved back a little from him.

Suddenly Sesshoumaru grabbed Jaken, taking advantage of Kagome's hesitation, attempting to strangle him to death.

Just as suddenly, Jaken fell to the ground with a 'thunk'.

"I told you! No killing defenseless whatever-he-is, in my BODY!" Kagome yelled jumping up and down in frustration. Once Kagomaru landed on their fourth jump Jaken was once again picked up and strangled. This time, instead of being dropped Kagome took control of her body, and in the struggle for control ended up throwing Jaken into a tree.

"Oh! Sorry Jakerd…uh...Jaken!" Kagome yelled to him waving her hand.

"Well!" Jaken mumbled to himself bitterly. He wasn't going to try that again.

"Thank you Kagome!" He yelled, comfortable with the distance between them now.

A thought came suddenly, and he began walking towards Kagomaru. "You know, when I first saw you, I thought you were a ... a mistress, to any guy with power, and was cruel and heartless like all the others I had met. But now I see you are a kind hearted person!" Jaken came whole-heartedly.

Kagome was left gaping, then quickly recovered. Using speed given to her from Sesshoumaru, she ran over to Jaken, picked him up, and threw him high into the air.

"Sesshoumaru?" She nearly commanded with her question.

"Yes, I know what you want." Using his energy whip, they sliced Jaken into 14 pieces with a smirk on their face.

Morning came; everyone had stayed up trying to figure out what they were going to do.

Miroku was not with them for half of the time considering he had laughed so hard he managed to wet himself. He had to find a river to clean them in with some detergent Kagome had let him use.

"Um," Came Sango's shy voice, "You may think I am being nosy but uh... Kagomaru? What are you like? I understand the half demon thing. But what gender are you?" Sango said trying to hold back an uncomfortable laugh.

Miroku and Shippou leaned in curiously. Inuyasha sulked up against a tree trunk close by, trying not to listen, or make it seem like he wasn't.

Kagomaru thought for a second and finally shrugged, "I really do not know." They stood and turned so no one could see, and peeked into their pants.

"Let's see that's there." Sesshoumaru said in relief.

Kagome's discomfort came through in her squirming. "Yeah…I think mine's down there too." She mumbled to herself.

She looked down at her shirt chest "hmm, so are those."

They turned back around, sat down, and in unison they said simply, "both."

Miroku began snorted then broke out into laughter again.

Sesshoumaru turned to him growling before his whip split his robe in half, exposing him.

"Now just find out where Inuyasha keeps getting his kimonos and you'll be set." Kagome's voice said laughing.

Inuyasha huffed.

"Sesshoumaru! Why did you do that?" Miroku whined.

"Why do you blame me? Kagome asked me after we killed Jaken how to use the whip and I showed her." Sesshoumaru's explained.

"Yep!" She turned her head so she wouldn't laugh.

"WAIT!" Inuyasha suddenly jumped up and turned to everyone in hostile stance. He charged over to Kagome and took her shoulders in to his hands. "When you were checking to see if you were, well, you know… YOU LET SESSHOUMARU SEE…THOSE?"

"It's because she likes a full demon, not a mutt." said Sesshoumaru trying not to grin.

"Why you!" Inuyasha said flexing his claws

"Sit." Sesshoumaru's voice said with intent. Inuyasha fell to the ground and growled.

"Huh. It still works!" Kagome said in awe.

"Yeah…how bout that…" Inuyasha grumbled trying to list his head from the ground.

By noon that day, Kagome and Sesshoumaru had gotten used to sharing a body. Rin, still slightly confused about the fact fluffy was in Kagome's body, was still following everyone, not wanting to be left alone. They all traveled towards a jewel shard Kagome had picked up towards the north.

Miroku had successfully been knocked out four times in only twenty-four hours and thrown into a river by Kagomaru. (Sesshoumaru had suggested it, since, he often did it to Jaken when he passed out from fear.)

When two days had turned into a week, Sesshoumaru stopped counting the days. Surprisingly enough, he started to enjoy being with everyone, having fun, and enjoyed seeing Rin laughing so much.

Having once again hit a village, everyone unknowingly began to separate. The staff of heads fascinated Miroku and once he saw a girl, he ran off from the group to try flirting with the staff. Sango, miffed at first, found herself distracted by the new weaponry and wanted to see if there was anything good in this village.

Inuyasha, bored, just sat by a fence for some rest and some much-needed peace of mind.

Shippou saw a cart full of toys and went to go see of there was anything he didn't own yet. This left Kagome and Sesshoumaru to talk in thought, which they recently learned.

'So Sesshoumaru…uuhh…you want to do anything in this village?'

'Personally I usually kill all the humans who see me but other than that no not really.'

'Oh, ok.' She responded awkwardly.

'That was a joke, Kagome…'

There was a long pause before she sighed outwardly. 'I miss Souta.'

'Who is this Souta that you speak of?'

'He's my little brother and he and I actually get along.'

'Unlike me and Inuyasha.' Sesshoumaru sighed after he thought this.

'You want to get along with him?'

'In a way, yes, but I…I swore to my mother I would hate any one with human in them with all my being.'

'You already broke that twice actually.'

'I suppose I did, but once I get my body back, all will be back to normal.' he thought grimly.

"Hey." Miroku said to the gorgeous girl at the well.

The dark haired woman turned around and saw his smiling face.

"You seem like a lovely young lady."

"Hello," She giggled, "I would hope so." she said flirting. Miroku knew flirting when he saw it,(as surprising as it was to see) so he took the opportunity to ask the question.

"Will you bare my child?" By now he had completely forgotten about all the lines he had thought of to use with the staff.

Without warning he found himself falling head first into the well. With a big splash he had landed in a muddy puddle of water, "help!" he said looking up at the girl who was pulling up the bucket.

"Kagomaru? Inuyasha? Sango?…. Some body?"

Inuyasha sat with his eyes closed, humming, when he heard his name. Pushing away from the fence, he bounded off to go see what could possibly be the matter.

"What have you gotten yourself into this time?" Kagome asked.

'A well, Kagome, He has gotten himself into a well.'

'Shut up! You know what I meant!'

"I didn't do it! It was the maiden." Miroku yelled. Kagomaru jumped into the well and picked up Miroku by his armpits and jumped back out as if it was nothing. The others soon arrived, just as a loud explosion sounded off near by. They turned wildly to find the origin.

Kagomaru looked in the direction of the explosion and realized it was a centipede demon making its way through the village destroying everything ranting about the Jewel of Four Souls. Kagomaru ran behind Inuyasha for protection. Inuyasha smiled. He sort of missed protecting Kagome. But then Sesshoumaru took control of Kagome's body, "Does it have any jewel shards Kagome?" He asked. Even though he was in her body he still couldn't see the jewel shards like she could.

"Yes, in the left part of his collar bone." She said.

"Can I have complete control of this body to fight?"

"y-yeah." She said hesitantly.
