Fight
Seshoumaru was avoiding him. His parents were always with their hosts. He had nothing to do. Irritated he kicked at a tree trunk, trying to take out his frustration. What was he supposed to!
Ever since he had confronted Seshoumaru about the meadow, the little prick had taken to masking his scent. He scowled at the chirping birds. It was not like he has asked a great deal. All he wanted was to play with Kagome. Seshoumaru played with her, so why couldn't he? He had promised to be careful with her!
"I want to go home," he muttered to no one in particular.
"Woof!"
Startled, Kouga looked up, to see the little human girl pointing her finger at him, excitedly.
She was sitting on a ledge, waving her chubby legs, back and forth.
Carefully, on the lookout for Seshoumaru, the wolf prince edged closer to her, and was finally standing face to face with her.
"Where's Seshoumaru?"
Kagome shrugged, and extended her arms towards the blue eyed wolf prince.
"Woof!"
After so many days of being shunned aside, Kouga brightened up, and picked her.
Seshoumaru returned to find Kagome running after Kouga, trying to catch him. Trotting on those tiny legs, she would fall down after a few steps, get up, run and fall down all over again.
"Kagome."
Kagome changed her direction, and ran smack into Seshoumaru's legs. Plopping onto her little tushy, she looked up at Seshoumaru, and smiled, "Gome catch Woof!"
Seshoumaru immediately swept her up, and glared icily at Kouga, "I thought I told you to stay away from her."
Kouga growled back, "It wasn't as if I was hurting her! We were just playing!"
Seshoumaru turned his back on him, "Don't follow us."
However, before he could take a step away from him, Kagome bit his nose, "Bad Seshou!"
Seshoumaru spluttered at being disciplined.
Struggling until he let her down, Kagome pulled him by his hand, and demanded, "Play!"
The inuyoukai turned his nose up in the air, "I will not play with him."
Kagome growled, highly displeased, "Bad doggy!"
Kouga sniffed, a little hurt, "Well, I don't want to play with him too! He's just a smelly dog!"
Seshoumaru growled, "Take that back! I am not a smelly dog!"
"Nuh-Uh! Are too!"
Seshoumaru saw red, and jumped on Kouga, punching him in the face.
Kouga retaliated by kicking him in the stomach, making Seshoumaru bite his tiny tail, forcing a howl of pain from the wolf cub.
Kagome started wailing, but was ignored by both boys, who were too intent on emerging the winner of the fight.
Inu no Taisho, hearing the howls all the way from his study, rushed upon the scene and his eyes widened. Before he could do anything, his mate arrived with their guests and picked up the wailing child, throwing a warning look towards the taiyoukai.
The Lord of the West expanded his aura, threateningly, making the two boys halt.
In a soft, but dangerous voice, he asked, "What is going on here?"
"He called me a smelly dog!"
"He won't let me play with Kagome!"
Inu no Taisho pinched his nose, irritated. Why did his son always have to pick fights with the wolf cub?
"Seshoumaru."
His son closed his mouth, immediately.
"Your fight has distressed Kagome. Take care of her, and then come to my study and we shall have a few words."
Seshoumaru stiffened, and took the hiccupping Kagome from his mother, and left towards his chambers.
"As for you, Prince Kouga. I leave you in your sire's capable hands."
Kouga gulped. He was so dead.
