OK hi guys, yeah me again

Hope you enjoyed that chapter, I liked how it went. But I want you to know

I WANT TO HEAR YOUR IDEAS. So review!

The sky was beginning to glow a light blue, clouds fluttered across the early morning sky. Birds sang good morning to the earth as Kagome's mind raced with dreams. Most of the group lay sleeping peacefully except the two love birds who couldn't keep their grimy hands off each other. Kagome woke with a loud yawn, stretching her arms out wide. She slowly rubbed her eyes and sighed in contempt. That was all disturbed when Kagome saw the sight she was forced to be greeted with. Inuyasha was practically on top of Kikyo! They looked as though they would take each other right then and there. Kagome very grossed out shot out of her warm sleeping bag and into the cold unforgiving morning air.

"GET A ROOM!" She squealed, her heart slightly aching, but she ignored it as Inuyasha looked up from Kikyo's neck. His hair was knotted and all over the place, he had begs under his eyes, obviously sleep deprived because of his new distraction. His tired eyes made their ways to hers.

"Take a hike!" he grumbled out as he got right back to work on Kikyo. Kagome just stared at him in shock… Did he just…yeah he did.

"Fine, I left my bath stuff by the hot springs anyway" She left while trying to hold on to her decency, not like she cared. Or at least, that's what she told herself. She grabbed her bow, arrows and back pack; she walked into the forest and found the way she had gone yesterday, this time trying to keep a look out for any demons who might be walking by. Especially if they just happened to be a stoic demon lord, who just happened to keep her from having her bath last night. Kagome looked around at the trees in the morning sun, they were absolutely beautiful. Again Kagome began to feel the aura of Sesshomaru. She huffed in frustration, because again he just happened to be right where she had wanted to go. The hot springs.

Kagome walked until she found her bag of toilet trees and towel. She was for sure that Sesshomaru had sensed her, so she might as well go to the hot springs anyway, if he had wanted to kill her he would have last night, but instead he let her go, which still made her unsure of what was wrong with him, but she let it slide. Following a slightly trampled down path she neared the hot springs, but she seemed to notice that his aura just got stronger the closer she got there. Sadly the thought never accrued to her that he just might have had the same idea of her, bathing.

Kagome neared the shore of the water and froze. This time she was sure her heart had stopped. Her face grew pale and her palms sweaty, there in front of her was Sesshomaru, naked in the water starring at her with his eyes filled with rage. "Well, it seems that I have walked in on a bad time…" Kagome said as her cheeks now lit up with a heavy blush.

Sesshomaru growled slightly as he brought his hand to his face, rubbing at his forehead trying not to rip the girl limb from limb, "Obviously" he stated coolly. His hair clung to his well toned body, he was slim but very, very fit. His stomach was lined with abs, he supported an eight pack and even though he only had one arm, its bicep was flexed and it caused Kagome to heat up as her eyes slowly traced downward on the dog demon.

Kagome's eyes shot back to his and she gave him a half smile, "Ok… tell me when you're done because I really want a bath" she said as she turned around her hair reflecting in the sun light as she slowly walked away into the bush, "I'll be sitting on the rock… You know the one" She called over her shoulder. Kagome made her way over to where she had cowered in fear last night and let her mind wander. 'So Inuyasha and Kikyo… again' She sighed, 'Well it's not like I was really going out with Inuyasha, it was sort of an on off relationship' looking down at the ground she thought harder, 'Well why should I care, he's a pompous jerk, who doesn't even have any decency to go into privacy! I really could do better couldn't I?' She thought in triumph, 'But, then why does it hurt so much?'

As for Sesshomaru: He was left in the hot springs completely confused. He came here to have a hot bath to clean himself from the stink his brother's scent had left on him only to have one of his wenches come near, not even come near. Actually approach him, talk to him and somehow she was still living which shocked him. He stared at the spot that she had once stood. He did not expect that reaction from her, she didn't even seem to be fazed that she caught him in the springs completely exposed. He knew she was in the close area but he never could have predicted that she would think about coming here. He was now curious…

He walked out of the springs to where his clothes lay on the ground and with his body still dripping wet; he slid the smooth silk clothing onto his body. At first dressing without his left arm was infuriating and confusing, but he now had the hang of it and easily did what he needed to do. The only part he really still had trouble with was the obi, he did always manage to do it but it still took him a longer amount of time it would if he had both arms. Finishing with dressing he ran his figures through his hair and walked forward towards the girl.

When he saw her she was already looking at him, she obviously had sensed him coming closer. He stopped walking and looked at her. Her eyes met his as she tried to do something with them, like send him a message, but what? All her eyes showed was immense power. Was she trying to tell him that she could match himself in battle? If so then he would gladly show her , her place. It was obvious that Inuyasha did not punish her enough when she stepped out of line. Women are supposed to be no more than property and yet this slip of a girl goes around acting as if she is an equal to village men, demons, and himself.

"Hey" she said calmly to him, her eyes softening a little bit. She stood and began walking towards him, a strange bag and cloth held closely to her chest, a bag hanging on her back and her bow slung across her shoulder. Her outfit so reveling and yet Inuyasha let this happen, she always seemed like she would always have control over Inuyasha as if she thought of herself as alpha. It was absurd. And yet, it filled him with questions. She continued walking, her eyes still meeting his, another thing women were not allowed to do, look directly at a man unless told otherwise. A woman should hold her head downward, not speak unless spoken too and know who alpha is. She walked so close to him he could see the pure clear and clean skin on her face sparkle in the morning light. She looked at him one last time and then walking right past him. It angered him. He didn't know why it did he was just to women bowing before him, not shrugging him off as if he was something to sneeze at. He turned his head slightly to watch her retreating form. How could one be so arrogant and pure and where such an outfit? He couldn't help it, he hand to know.

"Why do you where such disrespectful clothing?" He asked almost quietly, but she stopped meaning that she heard him. Her aura seemed to change into a confused state, as if she was never asked that question before or that she didn't know how to answer the question. He turned to look at her to find that she hadn't turned to face him. How could she not answer a question like that.

How she answered his question shocked him. He was expecting something along the lines of, 'I wear it to get attention, why else?' but no, she answered like this, "Where I come from… well I come from somewhere far away and… this is a uniform, I have to wear it" she said. Satisfied with her answer Kagome began to walk away again. And this time she wasn't stopped by Sesshomaru's questions. But now he had so many.

Kagome made her way to the water, a slight smile on her face. She beamed in delight as she removed her shoes and socks; quickly she dipped her toes into the warm welcoming water. She removed her top and skirt, but her body froze. Sesshomaru's aura hadn't weekend, in fact it felt as if he was standing behind her. She brought her arms up to her chest covering her upper body. She turned around to find nobody there. She sighed out in relief, but she didn't let her guard down. She slipped off her under garments with ease. She couldn't help but feel relive in getting those off. It had been three days since she had the chance to change She took a huge breath of fresh air and ran towards the water. Jumping up and bringing her knees to her chest she splashed into the water.

"Oh this water!" she chirped, "It feels so good!" Again she quickly looked around searching for Sesshomaru, his aura hadn't gone away. Kagome huffed and swam over to shore to get her shampoo and conditioner. Quickly she lathered her hair and rinsed. She grabbed her soap and quickly did away with the dirt and sweat that had covered her body. She came out of the water and grabbed her fluffy pink towel. She dried herself and the let the towel flow to the ground. Her head perked up when she felt a new aura coming towards her. "Inuyasha?"

"KAGOME!" he yelled as he burst through the bush. He stopped right away when he saw Kagome in the state that she was in. In the nude…

"ACK! Inuyasha sit!" She cried out in irritation. She watched as he tumbled toward the earth. She went over to her bag and pulled out a fresh thing of clothes. She put on knew underwear and then slid on her outfit. "You creep! What's wrong with you Inuyasha?" she cried out as she starred at him angrily.

"Hey I only came out here to protect you" he yelled at her as he stood with his fist clenched in anger, "I'm just looking out for you!" his ears twitched in irritation, "I caught a whiff of Sesshomaru, I thought you were in trouble!"

Kagome felt Sesshomaru's aura finally disappear. Kagome sighed, "Inuyasha… KNOCK IT OFF!" she yelled, "It's not like I need you like I used to ok! I know how to protect myself!"

"Yeah right, you need me to protect you and you know it!" he yelled back.

"Oh shut up" She said tiredly. "I may have needed you when I first got here, but face it, Inuyasha, I can survive on my own now"

"Prove it!"

"Maybe I will" She said turning her nose up and walking past him, "It'd be nice to get some alone time anyway" she walked rather slowly for her usual pace but it was constant. Her feet made a soft patting noise on the grass and she continued. Her hair, though wet, still bounced in its fresh and cleanness.

"Wait! Where are you going?" Inuyasha said walking after her. he out stretched his hand and placed it on her shoulder.

"I'm going to survive on my own"
