Chapter 66
Inuyasha took them out to eat, and they spent the whole time arguing with one another. It was a great way to celebrate. There was no moment where they weren't entertained or embarrassed, since they were, practically, thrown out from the place they were eating.
Hojo couldn't really blame them. He knew Inuyasha had loads of energy since he was hanyou, but Kagome…he wasn't sure how she managed to keep up with him. That much screaming must be tiring.
After that, they went to the Hojo Household where Rin was waiting with a huge cake. They needed not be told twice and both teenagers dug into the sugary sweetness with reckless abandon to the amusement of Rin and Inuyasha. Baby Kaede, who was now almost a year old, watched with keen interest as the youngsters moved around the room eating, laughing, and screaming.
The hours passed by and they went on with their chatter and jokes. Even Rin joined in, and to the amazement of them all, she was really good. It probably was because she was so…wise and motherly.
At the end of the night, almost midnight, Sesshomaru appeared, sobering them all from their sugar induced drunkenness. The way his eyes fell on them, accusing them of the most terrible sin, made them all recoil in their seats. The only unaffected being was, of course, Kaede.
"Miko," was the first thing the Taiyoukai said, making her flinch. "What are you doing here at this late hour?"
The silence that fell was deafening and when Kagome turned to Inuyasha, hoping he would explain, the hanyou merely turned away. He had learned to keep quiet when needed. Kagome had to summon her courage. "Eh, celebrating the fact that we graduated?" she said, motioning to Hojo and her.
Sesshomaru seemed to think this over, and after a moment, nodded. "You will follow me." After that, he walked away.
Kagome glanced at the occupants of the room, who gave her blank looks, and then raced after the silver demon Lord. She had wanted to talk to him for some time… but right now, the way he arrived and demanded it of her, was scary as hell.
She hoped she survived this meeting. Kami knew she had big, and peace oriented, plans up ahead.
