Precision

The roll of waves was familiar to Kagome's ears, they crashed against the rocks and rolled back into the sea. Kagome took in a breath of sea air.

"Isn't this the best, you guys?" Kagome shielded her eyes as she gazed at the clear ocean waters.

"Kagome-neesan, you've been to a place like this before?" Rin edged towards the receding waves. "It's mushy." Rin dug her feet in the wet sand.

"That's sand, Rin. See?" Shippou picked up dry sand and let it fall through his fingers into a little green bucket Kagome had given him. Rin ran towards Shippou to while he continued to pour white sand.

"I thought you said there were jewel shards here." Inuyasha kicked sand at Shippou.

"Well, obviously I lied, Inuyasha." Kagome gave him a sour look. "I thought this would be a good change of pace from searching for jewel shards and since we've bumped into the Sesshoumaru-gumi," Kagome smiled at the older brother. "This spot would be a great family get-together."

"Feh. What's so great about having a brother like him?" Inuyasha crossed over to sit on a jutting rock.

"You're not a pleasure to see either." Sesshoumaru turned towards his retainer. "Jaken, scout the area."

"Yes, my lord!" Jaken scurried towards the rising cliffs. Kagome turned towards the Western Lord.

"What can be so bad about the beach? It beautiful, the waters are a nice, clear sea foam green, there's no unforeseeable enemy—"

Sesshoumaru's golden eyes gave Kagome a piercing look. "Exactly."
