Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha but is Sess for sale?

Shippo watched Sesshoumaru walk with little Inuyasha sitting on his shoulders and crying "ya! Nissan! Ya!" Of course this was funny but Shippo didn't dare laugh. He was already starting to know the full potential of Sesshoumaru's temper. Still a small giggle escaped and Sesshoumaru turned his head and looked at Shippo with those deadly cold eyes of his. Shippo clamped a hand over his mouth and blushed. Sesshoumaru turned back around and once more tolerated Inuyasha treating him like a pack horse.

Kagome was running in and out of the dog demon's long legs which of course was dangerous but the lord bore it as he bore Sango kicking at the back of his shins for gods know what reason. It still amazed Shippo to see Sesshoumaru so tolerant of the little toddlers even as Miroku would grab his long hair and dangle. Shippo mentally sighed and shook his head at all this but still thankful the attention was to the aggravated dog demon and not towards him and Kilala.

Hours passed and finally Sesshoumaru had had enough and sat down suddenly without warning. Jaken knew to keep his distance from his angered lord for he could tell behind his cold eyes he wanted to kick the crap out of something. Rin could feel her lord's anger rampant in the air and so she took the liberty to take the little toddlers to go torture Jaken for a bit. That didn't please Jaken but he still didn't dare complain. It seemed that even Inuyasha forgot about the pack horse currently known as Lord Sesshoumaru to go give Jaken a beating for whatever reason. It was this time that Shippo walked over to Sesshoumaru and sat down and took a good look at the bald spot on his head. He was amazed that hair was already filling the gap.

"Stop staring fox demon," came the sudden cold voice that loomed above the startled little fox. Shippo looked down and then back up at him.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to," Shippo closed his eyes and expected the beating that Inuyasha would have given him but none came. He peeked over at Sesshoumaru to find him resting against the trunk of the tree with his eyes closed. I don't blame him for being tired Shippo thought and walked off to get food for the toddlers who after an hour jumped on Sesshoumaru. Of course Sesshoumaru hadn't been asleep for he didn't sleep. Want need did he have of sleep? Shippo came back and saw Sesshoumaru in his true form with Inuyasha dangling from one of his ears and Kagome picking loose strands of fur from him. Sango was occasionally lifting a corner of his lips to peer at the razor sharp fangs that were surprisingly pearl white. Miroku was having a blast with his tail as he would lift up the corner and let it drop. All this while Sesshoumaru had his massive head laying on his forepaws. With one eye he looked over at Shippo with a look at said basically "don't ask".

(Poor Sess eh? Taking such a beating) Shippo sat down beside Kilala and just examined the enormous body of the dog demon. This wasn't the small dog that Inuyasha and Kagome had seen in the grave but much larger. Half of his true size (Inupapa could manipulate his size why can't Sess?) actually but still pretty big. Shippo looked back at the little group and just watched as they would use and abuse the dog demon lord as he lay there trying to ignore the fact Kagome was now pulling out fur still attached and that Inuyasha had took to chewing on his ear. Miroku was still picking up and dropping his tail but Sango had taken on the task of trying to open his mouth with all her might but still not hurt herself on the points of his teeth. Shippo mentally laughed because he knew that Sesshoumaru would take out his pent up rage on Shippo if he laughed out loud.
