Sasia: I do know what 'Osuwari' mean, but I am sorry to inform you that Kag will not do it this time, only because Sessh have the situation within his grasp. I will definitely use it another time though, it's a promise.

Chapter 10 Nice Sessh and Annoying Inu

Seeing the brothers concentrating solely on one another, everyone decided to leave them alone.

Rin ran outside to play, with Jaken desperately following her, something about being severely punished if Rin is hurt. Ah-Un decided to sleep inside the fence around the Goshinboku tree. Everyone else except Kagome went to the kitchen since the two Inu decided to claim the living room as theirs for the time being. Kagome stayed to try to call off the not likely to happen fight, so it should prove to be easy as long as Sessh doesn't decide to change his mind.

Kag's family wasn't too concerned about the brothers because they don't know what those two can do and from the reactions of the others, it's safe to say that how the brothers are reacting is fairly normal.

So now the people in the kitchen are listening hard to catch every detail of what was happening in the living room. (You really can't blame them for being curious.) What they heard was the duo growling at each other. Sessh's growl was at least ten times fiercer than Inu's, but our lovable pup gave no sign of backing down. Kagome was well aware of the situation and silently sweet-drooped at the two's somewhat childish behavior. Finally Inu broke the growling contest and snarled viciously at his brother, "What do you want now?"

Sesshoumaru's eyes narrowed at Inuyasha's naiveness then turned to Kagome, "What is with this place, if this is indeed the future, then what happened to all the demons? There aren't any signs that indicates the existence of demons, would it not mean that youkai have disappeared some time in the past? If you are from this time, than I would expect that you know of what has happened."

Kagome sweet-dropped again, this time at how casually Sesshoumaru spoke the so formally sounding speech. She calmly told Sesshoumaru what she know, "To people here, demons are just legends that are never true. There are many legends about demons or just magical creatures, but the dating are all before somewhere around four hundred years ago. So I guess something happened to cause all demons to disappear 400 years ago."

Sesshoumaru listened quietly although inside his anger was welling up again. What exactly did the humans do? He wondered. "So you haven't any idea of what has transcended at that time?" He stated more than asked.

"No, I'm sorry, but there aren't any stories about it." Kagome said apologetically.

"Very well, I shall take my leave." And with that, he left.

Inu was so dumbfounded that his "evil" brother had talked to Kagome nicely (oh how he despised to use that word on Sessh) and simply left, all he could do was stare and gap.

Kagome had learned to be observant during the past year or so spent in the feudal era that she easily noticed Inu's stupefied expression and asked, "What's wrong Inuyasha?"

"Huh, what?" Inuyasha desperately shook himself out from his sunned mind, "Feh, nothing." Then he lowered his voice so that only Kagome can hear him, "What did you do to him?" Now it was Kagome's turn to be confused. "I mean he seemed so… Urg, not that word!"

"What word? Nice? What's wrong with that word?" Inuyasha glared at this last question. "Oh, I get it. Well, for your information, I didn't do anything to him." Kagome was a little upset at Inuyasha's resentment of using that word on his own dear brother.

Inuyasha recognized the slightly annoyed tone of Kagome and wondered out loud of what he did wrong. "What did I do this time?"

"Oh, forget it!" now she was livid and about turned and stormed to her room. (Oh my, she's easy to anger, perhaps even more so than Sessh.)

Everyone know that trying to comfort Kagome now will only result in fueling her anger, so they decided to direct their kind instinct at Inuyasha in the hopes of relieving the tension of the moment. The result wasn't good, Inu just got angry that they would be trying to help him but not Kagome and so he too stormed away to get some peace on the fateful Goshinboku tree. (Wow, they have the same temper, so maybe they are meant to be together.)

Inuyasha hated having to stay mad at Kagome, he wanted badly to apologize to her and see her smile. But he doesn't want to go against his pride though he eventually will have to relent.

Kagome can stay mad at anyone for a long-long time, but she doesn't wish to do that to Inuyasha. Perhaps that's why she readily forgives hem every time he apologizes. She sat in her room staring at the ancient tree, knowing full well that Inuyasha is there.

Lunch time was fast approaching and Inuyasha can't hold it anymore. "Oh, what the hell, stupid pride anyways." He muttered to himself and jumped through the open window to land with a soft thud in front of Kagome. "Look Kagome, I'm sorry okay?" Kagome's face brightened instantly at this. "It's just hard to believe that he has a soft spot after everything that had happened between us."

Kagome smiled happily, "It's alright Inuyasha, I only want you two to get along with each other.

"I know. I just don't think Sesshoumaru will do that, but we'll worry about that some other time okay?" he then lead Kagome to the door, but stopped before it. "What happened here?"

"Oh that, ask grandpa." Kagome said dismissively.

"So you two are finally back together!" Souta piped up as he bounced up the stairs. "It's lunch time."

"Already? I didn't know it's been that long."

"Oh come on Inuyasha, I smell Ramen."

"Man, what a pain."

"I think he's still mad at you, sis."

"No, I'm not!"

"Yeah sure, whatever." (Souta)

"Humph, little brothers are so annoying!"

"Hey, what's that suppose to mean!"

"Oh, nothing."
