Honor

Last time: "Indeed." Sesshomaru said and had he been anyone else...he could've smiled when he heard Kagome's sigh of relief...

Lady Nefertiti: Sorry for the delay, school issues and by the way, another chapter of my fic 'how to trap a demon 101' will shortly be updated after this one. enjoy reading everyone.

It was quiet where the inu-tachi group was standing, oddly, considering when you had a hyperventilating Miko that thought Sesshomaru was going to leave her forever (but wouldn't tell anyone), a pissed off hanyou, an annoyed as hell Slayer, a monk who was looked ready to break up a fight and a demon lord who just looked, well emotionless. Couldn't tell what he was thinking in the silver haired head of his. Mighty fine silver hair...uhm...back to the story...

-Kagome-

He was going to stay.

He was staying.

He was here.

He wanted to be with her and her group.

He didn't want to go and leave to go and kill lesser people.

'Oi! how many times are you going to repeat that Kagome?' her concious said.

Forever. She didn't know why he had become so important to her all of a sudden and it wasn't just because he healed her...no...of course she knew she was just being stupidly silly. He didn't harbor any feelings for her. How sad...how sad indeed...

'Does it pain you to know that he could walk off even if saw your hurt face?' her concious said.

Yes.

-Inuyasha-

Why didn't the damn annoyance just leave them be?? "Oi! we got along just fine without you and we can fend off now just as well! so GET GONE SESSHOMARU!" Hmph...an insult to his name and leaving off the honorific would definately anger him. He knew that his brother took honor seriously and...

"So astounding to know you know your big brother's name hanyou." Sesshomaru began mildly.

"WTF is your Problem?" Inuyasha yelled and raised a fist from where he was.

"Would you care for another injury on your person?" Sesshomaru said coldly.

"Inuyasha! I don't want to have to si...err...have to make you go 'boom' again!" Kagome said. "so just shut it okay?"

"Grrrr..." Inuyasha said. Something fishy was going on.

"Inuyasha you don't get demons at all do you?!" Sango said. Inuyasha raised an eyebrow at this and nodded for her to continue. This would be interesting indeed. A slayer thought she knew demons better than he?

-Start Sango's long speech-

"Sesshomaru wants to...err...Sesshomaru-sama feels its his duty to stay with our group until you can heal your bloody self! which won't be for a while and considering your a hanyou and your injuries can't heal faster than Sesshomaru's...err...Sesshomaru-sama's. Being that we are in the middle of no where and prone to attacks anytime we're not really fit for battle." Sango continued like she was a wise woman.

"You're sword's doing funny things as of recently if you haven't noticed and we need to get you somewhere where you can heal safely. Naraku could launch a full blown battle and knowing our condition he would win. Acting tough and childishly that you own this group isn't going to work right now. Both of you can duke it out anytime soon. Besides I think Sesshomaru would rather take you out of the world of the living when you were healthy otherwise he'd feel guilty no?"

"Having him on our side is better than having him against us and you KNOW that too. So he's here and that bother's you why? He helped Kagome when you hadn't noticed and was busy 'frolicking' with the dead miko. How can you call yourself our leader when its YOU that needs the helping?! If he wanted your position then he would've killed you and taken Kagome a long time ago."

"Hey! Don't bring me into this!!" Kagome said from the background. Sango ignored her and went on...

"He cared about her enough to notice her injury. Honor is something he has... where's yours?!" Sango said sternly.

-End Sango's long speech-

Inuyasha just blinked. Maybe she did know demons a little bit. What did those slayers really teach their students in class? the entire DNA and molecular structures of demons/hanyous?

"Then its decided. All of shall head over to my home until Inuyasha's injuries have healed."I cannot have you dying on my conscious. That's my job." Sesshomaru said.

"Is that supposed to make me feel better? No wa...okay okay!" Inuyasha said panicking as he looked at Sango's and Kagome's murderous expressions. Women were dangerous when they were angry and provoked. He knew...

"But he's not allowed to be mean to me or kill me!" Inuyasha said.

"You're insensitive to other's feelings." Miroku said wisely.

'...'

Didn't he say that he wasn't going to? The girls knew...all Sesshomaru wanted was to discipline his brother, even if just a little...

'Because he's being a big brother to you Inuyasha...' Sango and Kagome thought softly.

"She is eating Inuyasha's ears out and berating him like he's a pup, I like her Kagome dear who is she?" Sesshomaru said.

"Sango. Just like a big sister to me." Kagome said happily and smiled up at him as he looked down into her blue eyes.

"It's good news to know you aren't his woman..." Sesshomaru said in a teasing voice. Kagome blinked, he remembered that?!

Something between them sparked...and they felt it.
