Not Quite the Ying-Yang
Lady Nefertiti
Last time: She had a feeling she knew what Kags was up to…excellent facial expression by the way, just like Sesshomaru's. 'Wait. when did we make mate 'preggers?' who was it? Was it somone else? I'll rip his damn throat and living heart out!' Sesshomaru's beast said angrily.
'...'
Chapter 3: Say it like you mean it
It was uncomfortable within the inu-tachi group as no one knew what to say. Sesshomaru being within the group now was causing quite a commotion or rather a confrontation beween the males…naming two inu-brothers… after all their mother wasn't here to tell them to 'play nice boys. ' Why hadn't anyone said anything yet? The silence was deafening to the ears and it was causing the inevitable truth from spilling. And what was up with that shocking statement from Kagome? And Sesshomaru? Who hadn't said anything to her, disagreed with her that what she had said was false? And that she was below him? Etc…etc…
'We shall not rip anyone's heart out and Kagome is not our mate.' Sesshomaru said to his beast. Honestly! Sometimes his beast got out of hand that's why he kept him locked.
'Says you!' his beast said grumbling.
"Why are you yelling at Sesshomaru, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked him confused. Inuyasha looked at her like she was stupid.
"How dare he ask you a personal question like that? It's not like he goes around asking everyone personal things like that!?" Inuyasha said. Something was wrong here. Why the hell were they defending each other? Why was Sango sitting there all calm, like this was he most amusing situation she'd landed into? and Miroku looking around for something. Good thing that they hadn't invented cameras or video or real paper yet, Miroku was one who could write a best-selling book for things like this. A couple having a lover's spat...wait what was he saying? there was no lovers or no spat!
"Hanyou…Why do you just read between the lines? Perhaps you should listen to the whole conversation before you jump to hanyou-like conclusions…." Sesshomaru said as Inuyasha glared at him.
"Yeah, its not like we were talking about anything bad…" Kagome said. Sheesh! He'd been like this ever since Sesshomaru joined their group! Like Kagome was going to make off with his brother. Its not like he even had any place to be jealous either! She was a free woman and he was mated to his Kikyo-pot!
"Oh well that's a shame now isn't it…." Miroku said taking his place next to Sango again.
"Do you really think that this Sesshomaru would do anything dishonorable as you have done to Kagome, mutt? Cheating on Kagome with a clay miko who is unable to feel, love or bear pups." Sesshomaru said running a hand through his silver hair.
"Ahh…so we're back to our previous subject about pup bearing…." Miroku said happily. It was too bad he didn't have parchment to take notes on, the happy hentai that he was…now his happy 'bubble' was deflated and he just sighed and decided to watch for sport. ha-ha...guess some people were amused about this...
"For the hundredth time I am NOT MATING Sesshomaru! Got it? We don't have anything in common anyway, besides a goal and that it to kill Naraku. Sesshomaru asked me a simple question about what I was going to do after the Shikon was completed! Was I going to stay here or am I going to go back home? He asked that since I am a powerful Miko, will I bear human or demon pups?" Kagome said in an exasperated voice. She turned her back to both brothers and huffed angrily. Maybe she would go back home! She was going to get high blood pressure at this rate! Why was Inuyasha so damn curious?
"Do not stress yourself Kagome. He will always be his usual emotion filled hanyou self." Sesshomaru said nodding his head regally. Kagome watched his head shake and tried stopping a wanting sigh...ahh...so beautiful that head of his...ahem, ahem..back to the subject.
"Do you like my silver hair Ka-go-me?" Sesshomaru said in a teasing voice. He, being a demon could obviously pick up Kagome's scent, and her soft sigh and possibly what she was thinking. Kagome shook her head out of her 'happy place thoughts' and glared at him. "Perhaps you're wondering what it feels like? would you like to run your fingers through my soft and silky hair?" Sesshomaru continued.
'Yes! touch me my beloved koi-mate!' Sesshomaru's beast said giddily.
'Cocky bastard ain't he.' Miroku thought smirking inwardly.
"You! I don't like anything about you!" Kagome said to him and crossing her arms.
"And she ain't touching you anywhere hentai!" Inuyasha said. The gall of his half-brother! What was he going on about? How dare he let Kagome fall into a false sense of security like that?
"You're scent says otherwise." Sesshomaru said.
"Grrr..." Kagome growled.
'That is sooo sexy!' Sesshomaru's beast said sighing. That's it. Sesshomaru was putting his beast away.
"Why you!" Inuyasha started and ran at him with his sword. The usual...
"Sit boy." Kagome said.
(Boom!)
"That never ceases to amuse me." Sango said smiling from far away. 'Kagome, truly, you are the only female that I have seen that can stand your ground against Sesshomaru and somewhat control his behavior.'
"At least he has feelings and emotions!" Kagome said rounding on him. "You on the other hand, I have no idea sometimes what you are thinking, what you are doing and I can't read you!"
"And why Miko would you try so hard to find out? Is there something you wish to know about me? Surely the silent ones such as myself must hold some secrets you wish to discover. " Sesshomaru smirked. Kagome turned red. He'd got her. She didn't know why but now that he was a part of this group she wanted to know everything about him.
"That's really curious of the both of them isn't it?" Miroku mumbled to himself but Sango heard it. It was Shippo then that brought up a very good question that many overlooked.
"Sesshomaru-sama, being the powerful demon that you are, you are capable of defeating Naraku yourself and yet you travel with us, why?" Shippo asked cutely and jumped onto Kagome's shoulder.
'…'
Now why hadn't the grown-ups thought about that? Of course the ladies minus Kikyo were happy that Sesshomaru was here, Sango on behalf of having extra protection and another one to fight against Naraku and Kagome? Well….she had other reasons.
Inuyasha jumped out of his crater, flattened his ears and jumped into a tree, which was the only thing that he could do right now. But why would Sesshomaru care to know what type and race her future kids were going to be anyway? It was like he wanted to reassure himself of something. He didn't like it. He looked down at Kikyo who shook her head, a sign to tell him to let the both of them be. That Kagome wasn't so stupid as to fall for the likes such as Sesshomaru. She was a miko and they all were sworn to an oath, she'd be damned if she betrayed her kind. A bit of witty banter, a few choice words never hurt anyone. However, this didn't reassure Inuyasha much.
"You know its interesting Sesshomaru, at first I thought Inuyasha and Kagome seemed like a married couple but I was wrong!" Shippo started. Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow at this, Kagome just coughed, and didn't make eye contact with Sesshomaru and said that it was time to set up camp. "But now I see that you and her seem to be married more because my mama and papa argued but they never yelled at each other and mama never sat papa!" Shippo said merrily. "So does this make Rin my big sister?" Sango and Miroku doubled over with laughter, Inuyasha 'keh'd' and Kikyo shook her head disapprovingly. Kagome turned fire-engine red but nothing came out of her mouth. What could she POSSIBLY say to that? She was no ideal lady of the western lands. Ha, Sesshomaru would laugh before that happened. Seriously, he would laugh...
Ahh….kids and their cute innocent questions that seemed to embarrass the hell out of adults…as true as it may be too….
"Why is everyone trying to ship me and all ready to send me off with Sesshomaru?!" Kagome said angrily holding up the spoon she was stirring the ramen in the pot with. A weapon?
"Is you're hatred for this Sesshomaru so much Kagome?" he asked her sounding like a wounded puppy.
"No. I don't hate you, I don't like you, I just…..well Sesshomaru" Kagome stuttered on her words.
How to explain this to a demon!? If she said she loved him he'd take it that she wanted to mate him, if she said she liked him he'd assume that she wanted to be courted, if she said she cared then…then wait maybe she said they could be friends? No. Demons didn't have friends like that. Hmm…Maybe she should just ignore him and keep her distance from him now on! Yeah! That seemed logical enough.
Well we'll see how that works out with you Kags...
-Inuyasha-
His brother, half-brother irked him to no end! He was a pain when he wasn't here with them and he was a pain when he was with them! Now the entire group was pro-Sesshomaru and his mating or blessing Kagome to mate with Sesshomaru! I mean seriously...WTF? He looked down at Kagome from his high perch on the tree and caught Sesshomaru raising an eyebrow at him, looking at him like he was beneath him once again...sigh...
This was going to be a long night...
Lady Nefertiti: Please read and review. thanks!
