(A/N) Hey there my loyal readers! I have finally become bored of my selection of COMPLETED Fanficion stories I've been reading. I have finally started writing for my old stories once again. Honestly IDK why I am since it looks like no one cares... :'( Oh well. On with the story.

Chapter 6

Sessh's POV

Unknown to the others, an idea was just thrust before Sesshomaru-sama from Kagome-chan's words. Oh I'm so saving this for later. He showed only annoyance outward though, on the inside, he had a wicked grin and laugh ringing in his head.

(This is a line)

Kag's POV

With all the little yokai securely attached to some part of me I focused a tiny bit of my power on my favorite hotspring ever. In the blink of an eye we rematerialized right infront of the small picnic table Shippo and I had secretly made together. I had Put a special enchantment on it so only those I deemed worthy (So far only Shippo, but now I think I'll add LITTLE Yasha and LITTLE Sesshomaruto the seals.) could see it. Even if they knew it was there they could not see or touch it.

As I turned the boys Yasha gasped when the table and benches appeared seemingly out of thin air. Sesshomaru, though he made no sound, had let a look of surprise show in his eyes. I noticed because I was especially interested in his reaction. The Lord Sesshomaru we all knew and (mostly) liked had never spoken of his past nor his upbringing unless it was just me and him. Even then it was seldom and far between, as well as quite insignificantly informative.

"All right. You all can strip down and hop in while I finish up prepping for... well you'll see." I spoke with a happy yet mischievous tone. "Shippo. Remember the rules: No rough housing. No swallowing the water unless it's an accident. Make sure Inuyasha stays in the shallow end and NO one touches Mama's stuff. Got it?" I knew Inuyasha couldn't swim at this age cause he had accidently let it slip awhile back.

"Yes Mama." Shippo was helping Yasha undress as I noticed Sesshy was just standing there.

"Sesshomaru? Why aren't you getting undressed?"

Que stuttering and a big blush.

"I'm waiting for you to avert your eyes. Did Father not tell you I am of age to... Well... choose a mate?" he had sounded completely embarrased and by the end there was no way he could keep direct eye contact. I never knew how shy Sesshy was when he was little. I guess our Western Lord is ashamed of how he once was.

"Is that all? Well you don't have to worry. I'm just making sure Shippo can keep Yasha safe while I go put on my bathing suit-"

"Wait! You bathe in... Clothes? But does that not defeat the purpose?" he had a curious confused look as he asked, but I knew he was just stalling.

"Yes and no. You'll see in a minute. Be right back."

Sessh's POV

"What in the world is wrong with me? I can't seem it keep my cool around this strange onna... And why the heck does she keep treating me like a child!? I am the mighty Lord Sesshomaru, heir to the western Lord Inu no Taisho! What is it with this silly Yasha too? I can't believe we are half the same breed. Well at least he has a human form." with these thoughts going through my head I unconciously got undressed and swam over to the deeper end of this surprisingly large spring.

Luckily for me I had done so just in time, for when I turned to swim back towards the other boys there came quite the sight to behold.

Lady Kagome had just walked out from behind a tree surrounded in a halo of pure light. As she stode to the waters edge I noticed there was a small herd of varying animals, as well as and elder himan woman I could swear was 'Baba Naga', an average demoness with a fierce gaze and a child demoness of complete white garb, hair and skin. The white one appeared to be devoid of emotion, but that was all caught by my inner. I, on the other hand, was completely enticed by the appearance of Lady Kagome.

She had on nearly no clothing at all. Her private parts were scantily clad in light green fabric, with strings holding the bottoms together on each side while the top had a loop around her neck and more strings tied in a bow just below her shoulder blades.

"Here you go Shippo." the miko said as she tossed some more clothes at her son. He nimbly caught then without ever showing his own secret areas. "Show off." I thought.

"Makoto-san! Kagura-san! Kanna-chan! What are you guys doing here? I thought you guys were of doing... Ummm whatever it is you guys do?" He ended that sentance rather lamely if you asked me.

The on I presumed to be Makoto-san stepped forward and I nearly went to claw my eyes out as she started taking her kamono off! Thank the kamis she had on (a blessedly fuller) bathing suit on like 'Gome. The elders however, was a full piece with an attached waits cover. the other women had done the same as their companion and it turns out they were joining us for a relaxing (yeah right) swim before everyone started arriving.

Kag's POV

I absolutely love the bathing suits I had got for these girls. Makoto with her orange one piece with attached skirt and yellow koi fish all over it. Kagura had on a pink bekini similar to mine but with feathers where as mine was just plain green, though I did add have a silver nacklace with my name on it on at all times. Lastly Kanna was in an adorable powdeer blue onpiece with an open back covered in lotus flowers.

I couldn't help but giggle at the looks those silly boy had on when they all started taking off their outer layers. Luckily for them I was nice enough to go get them some swim trunks. I had to borrow one of the twins for Inuyasha and Kohaku's for Sesshomaru, cause if I gave them theirs they would not only be confused but far too small to fit their adult trunks.

Shippo imeadiately had his on but Yasha and Sessh gave the shorts confused looks and sniffs before looking expectantly at Shippo, then to me when he just got out to help Kanna in.

Sigh.

"You were them like your hakama's. so we can all swim together without anyone seeing anything they shouldn't." I said this as diplomatically as I could, but seeing the sad look of dear, sweet little Yasha and the somewhat murdurously indignant glare from Sesshomaru I quickly realised they could smell the other males scents. It all clicked rather fast, even for me.

"Sesshomaru, Inuyasha. Don't be upset that there are other peoples scents on those. It was on short notice I came to become your guys' sitter. I had no time to go get you your own shorts, so please just wear Hikaru's and Kohaku's. I made sure to wash them it that makes you feel better?" at first I was using a stern tone, but as I saw both their faces turn sad it turned pleading. It wasn't until they put them on I realised they must have remembered that they are gonna go home eventually... If only they knew...

Sessh's POV

This is rediculous. There is no way a young man such as myself cannot enjoy himself among this... decent company.

"Kagome-chan-"

"NO!"

"W-what!?"

"My name is Kagome. We're friends aren't we? My friends call me Kagome, or I just ignore when they use the suffix." she said this all while swishing Inuyasha back and forth through the water, letting him see what it is like to swim. I'm not that surprised he does not know how.

"Ka-Kagome... I'm going in the deep end."

"No you're not Sesshomaru-sama. Only I can go in the deep end. I don't even let Shippo or Sango go that far."

"Why not? I sence nothing life-threatening-"

"That is because we are not upsetting her. Stay in the neutral area, I will be very upset if I must go after the gaurdian yet again for such an easily avoided mistake. I forbid you from going that deep!"

"What? Did she just say... Guardian?"

"Listen to mate. We don't like upsetting her."

"MATE!? Why the HELL are you calling her MATE!? Lady Kagome is NOT our ...mate... Oh no..."

"Oh yes."

"Please no..."

"Too Bad."

"Great... Can't wait to tell Father my mate will die LONG before I can reach full maturity."

Kag's POV

"You know what? I'm starting to prune. Come on everyone. Let's go start preparing for the party tomorrow." I sure as hell didn't want either of these poor pups to meet the water's Deep Mistress.

"Awww but Mama I wanted to teach Yasha to swim! Can we please stay a little longer?" begged my not so little boy as he gave me those well practiced pouty eyes.

"Well... If you would rather teach Inuyahsa how to swim instead of how to make those super cool paper lanterns, then I guess it will just be me, Sesshomaru, Rin and the twins. And to think I was going to run home and get that huge bag of Taffy Souta got me last time he came home... Oh well I gue-"

"TAFFY!"

GLOMP

SPLASH

"Shippo!" giggle "Okay okay! Hurry up and dry off. We'll leave in... Where's Inuyasha? Inuyasha!"

Out of the corner of her eye Kagome saw Sesshomaru climbing onto shore on the other side of the springs!

"SESSHOMARU! GET AWAY FROM THE WATER NOW!"

With a focused whip of light from her hand Kagome had flung Shippo and Makoto from the water, for Kagura and Kanna were already on shore with a terrified Inuyasha. It seemes he went too deep and Kanna was nice enough to pull him out of the water.

"This Sesshomaru is perfectly fi-!"

"Sesshomaru!" I can't believe he disobayed me like that! Does he have a death wish or something!?

Just before the inu heir could finish speaking what looked to be tenticles had shot out of the water, dragging him in with aparrent imunity to both his claws and venom.

The miko dove into the water with blatent disregard for the cries of worry from her land dwelling company.

"I have to stop her! She thinks it is the grown up Sesshomaru, but this one has no memory of their fight! I knew she couldn't be trusted..."
