Sesshomaru sniffed suspiciously at the bizarre, noisy, dark drink InuYasha's miko offered to him. As ruler of the West he had partaken in many fancy drinks from many different lands, but this odd smelling drink he had yet to come across. Frowning, he accepted the cool glass from the girl and held it to his face. The liquid smelled sweet and lightly bitter at the same time.
"Girl, what sort of drink is this?"
Kagome rolled her eyes, "My name is Kagome! And it's a type of soft drink called Dr. Pepper. "
Sesshomaru glared at the girl, "This Sesshomaru needs no doctor's tonic. And this Sesshomaru smells no pepper in this."
"Just try it! It isn't poisoned!" Kagome huffed at his glare of doom.
Sniffing the dark drink once again just to double check, Sesshomaru gingerly took a small sip of the fizzing drink. The first thing he noticed was the sporadic bubbles that spattered his face lightly with mist. The second was the strange mix of flavors coating his tongue, smooth yet tickling the inside of his mouth. Sesshomaru arched his brow before finishing off the rest then holding out the glass to the girl, silently demanding more.
Kagome stared at the dioyoukai for a moment, looking at him then at the empty glass. "You sure you want more?"
Sesshomaru glared once before noticing a rather large bottle with a dark maroon wrapping around it and white symbols. Faster than Kagome could see, Sesshomaru had snatched the 2 liter from her side and was walking away from her into the woods.
Kagome was trying not to laugh. She'd even clapped her hands over her mouth in an effort to keep the smallest giggle from escaping. Sesshomaru, however, didn't seem to appreciate the lengths she was going to for the sake of his dignity. The young woman actually thought she should receive an award for having held out so long as another high-pitched squeak escaped from the angry taiyoukai's throat, followed by a deep growl. Blue eyes filled with restrained mirth were locked with furious golden ones as yet another girlish hiccup erupted from the stoic lord. Seeing the miko's face blanch in response, Sesshomaru decided to take the bull by the horn's, before the onna lost control of her faculties and became unable to fix him.
"Wench, you will.HIC Not.HICLaugh."
And Kagome snapped. The laughter that had been waiting to explode sent her to her knees. Every time she tried to get control of herself, another squeak would issue from above her, and send her right back into fits of snorts, chuckles and gasping mirth. With each giggle that escaped, Kagome knew she was signing her own death warrant, and from the threatening youki emitting from Sesshomaru, she was almost certain, he was about to blow.
HIC
Well, at least she'd die happy!
