Chapter 33: Testing
They were back at the castle in no time. Inu Heki was very proud of his daughter. Inuyasha though just blew it off.
"How did you learn the spell so quick?" Inu Heki asked.
"I don't know. It just seemed easy to me. Like as easy as making a miko arrow." Kagome replied.
"It didn't seem easy to me." Inuyasha said.
Kagome looked at him with a death glare, then she smirked.
"Senmo Kengen Haburi Tenka." She muttered, directed at Inuyasha.
"AH! HEY! What the heck… why?!" He yelled when he realized he was human.
"You do look like Izyaoi." Inu Heki said.
"Well thanks." He replied sarcastically.
"Senmo Kengen Haburi Tenka. This is the way I was born father." She told him.
He gasped.
"You do look like me still."
"Can I be a youkai now?!" Inuyasha screamed.
"No."
"Come on!"
"No, this is my new punishment. Instead of sits I'll turn you human. And its my choice when I turn you back."
"Henjo Tenka Kengen." She muttered forcefully. It transformed her completely.
He muttered something under is breath.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing, nothing."
"Right. That's what I thought. When we go to Sango and Miroku's wedding we're gonna be human, no matter if you like it or not."
"Just to annoy me?"
"Yea… You're the same no matter what form you are."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means that you are just like you always have been and always will be."
"Whatever."
"Too bad I don't have those beads now." She said pulling them out of her haori.
"Oh no you - how did you - NO!"
"I got them when we went last time to the well. Don't worry, I have to fix it first."
"You wouldn't!"
"I would if you don't behave. It seems like when I took these off you changed a little, for the worst. You seem more arrogant than before."
"I'm not arrogant!"
"Oh yea? Tell me when you haven't been. You've been arrogant since the first day I met you!"
"Nu - uh!"
"Oh yea. Mister keep calling me Kikyo and then say she was cuter after finally being told I wasn't her for the millionth time. How many times did I tell you I wasn't her?"
"You looked like her! It had been 50 years since I'd seen her! You're her reincarnation! You're supposed to look like her!"
"So you're saying I look like Kikyo, is that why you mated me? Because I look like her?!"
"No, of course not! I figured out that she wasn't the woman I thought she was. The one I was really in love with was you!"
"Sure. Then why did I see you go off so many times to be with her. She almost dragged you to HELL with her!"
"I didn't know! I was unconscious!"
"I saw the whole thing! You didn't look unconscious, just in her trance is what it looked like to me."
She turned around and pulled out the beads then muttered something. Inuyasha freaked out when he saw the beads appear.
"You said you had to fix them first!"
"Well I guess not. Sit!"
The usual feeling came upon him hitting the floor. Inu Heki just stared.
"Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! SIT!! Ugh!"
She walked back and sat down by her father again. Her father was dumbfounded.
"Do you do that often to him?" He asked chuckling.
"Yea, unfortunately. He never learns though. I've had those on him for a year. Now I'm not taking them off. Our kids can torture you next if they're given my powers."
'Oh god!' He thought 'That's what I need. Five people able to sit me.'
He finally peeled himself off the floor.
"Can I stop being human now?"
"No, I think when I 's' you it hurts worse as a human, so no."
"I command you as alpha to turn me back!"
She laughed.
"You're human. Youkais come before human so, no urge on this one."
He growled.
"Oooo, scary!"
His eyes flashed red and back.
"No, you don't. You wouldn't here. You can barely fit in the courtyard! Much less the castle!"
"Then turn me back and I won't transform."
"Fine. Henjo Tenka Kengen." She said, and he only looked like a hanyou.
"That's all I'm giving you."
He growled again.
"You're not a dog! You may be part dog but you're a living person. Not an animal."
"I can do what I want."
"Sit. And no you can't. I would of thought that you learned something by now after the past year."
"I have learned something."
"What is that?"
"How to trust, how to protect my friends, how to wield the Tetsusaiga, how not to get killed."
"How not to get killed? How many times have I seen a whole in your stomach this year or you turn into a youkai?"
He growled again.
"Ok, that has got to stop now. You growl at everything. Next thing you know you're going to be barking at cars!"
"What's a car?"
"Oh it's a vehicle from my time. Dogs bark at them for some odd reason."
