Chapter 7 Before and After the So Needed Sleep
Bed time usually goes by eventlessly in the feudal era, but this time with everyone being in the future (kind of, it's the present for us and Kagome), things were a little bit different. There was the whole thing of how to house everyone. Inuyasha decided that with Sesshoumaru on the lose so close by, he should stay on alert the whole time, so that bit was settle with Inu dozing the Goshinboku's branch. Miroku offered to sleep on the sofa knowing that both Kagome and Sango are wary of his groping habit and would be happier if he's somewhat a distance away. (See, he's not that bad.) Kagome got out another bed (you know, the traveling type that can be cared around, not a sleep bag.) and slept on that one with Shippou while leaving her own to Sango and Kirara. Kagome slept by the door, something about wanting to be on the lookout for Miroku in case he decided to be sneaky.
Everyone finally settled down with half an hour until mid-night when grandpa took the sneaky business into his own hands by sticking fake sealing sutras on the door with Kagome, Shippou, Sango and Kirara all inside. When come morning, the glue would have dried completely making it impossible to open the door without ripping a few chunks of paint off, because the old guy decided to use something much more durable than the paint on the door and door frame.
Everyone slept fairly well since they were sleeping inside and on beds. It's true that Miroku and Inuyasha did not sleep on beds, but the sofa was really good comparing to the out doors without any sleeping equipment. Inuyasha being a demon and all simply don't get bother by much and feel contended enough on a tree.
Morning arrived quickly but with everyone well rested and with a little surprise for Kagome.
Kagome woke up early and found that Sango was already awake but with some sleepiness still in her eyes. She jumped onto the bed to fully wake Sango and got a cute mew from Kirara and a barely discernible mumble of "how can you wake up so fast" from Shippou, Sango just smiled at her and started a pillow fight. (I wonder, how she got the idea.)
When the room was in a complete mess, they started to clean up and get dressed. At last the room was tidy again and Kagome opened the window to let in some fresh air. A cute sight greeted her from the tree of ages. There Inuyasha hung upside down and swaying a bit while humming to himself some song that he must have learned in his childhood from Izayoi. Kagome aww'd softly attracting Sango's attention and her response was the same. Miroku, who must have woke up to the sound of the pillow fight upstairs, went out to find the same sight, but his reaction was entirely different. He sneaked up to the normally highly alert hanyou and knocked the poor pup on the head which caused him to fall down hard on the already bruised head. This in turn caused a fight between the two boys to which Kagome and Sango can only shake there heads and feel sad that the lovely scene has been brutally ripped apart. The little scene however will not be the only thing that would be ripped apart by the end of this day.
Kagome went over and opened the door to go down to the kitchen for breakfast but what greeted her came much early than expected, as she opened the door, a loud rip could be heard throughout the house. A few remarks greeted the ripping noise, the remarks included Mrs. Higurashi's "are you okay", Souta's "what was that" and Grandpa's "uh oh, the barrier has just been broken". Shippou looked scared, Sango just stared unsure of what to do and Kirara transformed in the already small space making it impossible to put anyone else in. Then, a ground shaking howl of "grandpa, what the hell was that for" could be heard. After this Kagome sank down against the wall with a "now my door is ruined". Everyone except grandpa who's trying hard to find some really strong spell and the still battling monk and Inu came to comfort her with surprisingly good result. (Well, at least it didn't end too badly.)
