InuYasha Fan Fiction / Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Forbidden Kagome ❯ Chapter 5

Hi everyone. In my previous installment, I said `reviews' at the top, but what I meant was `updates.' Sorry for any confusion that might have caused… Anyway, sorry for the last chapter being so short, but it was the best I could do. Besides, the Yu-Yu gang needed their own chapter; it's only fair… Well, I hope that you enjoy.

 

P.S. I'm extending the voting for one more chapter, since the last one was so short… Vote vote vote!!

 

P.P.S. -blah- Kagome +blah+ Souta

 

~*~*~ Last Time ~*~*~

 

Kurama excused himself, promising to return at around noon the next day. Hiei just left, probably heading for the Makai to `calm down.' Yusuke, Yukina and Genkai all went to their respective rooms to sleep, eagerly anticipating the morrow.

And what a day it would be…

 

~*~*~ This Time ~*~*~

 

Kagome and Souta stood outside the train station, saying a final farewell to Sangi and Ongi. There weren't any tears, but the kids were depressed as hell. It was Spring Vacation, damn it! Who would want to spend a vacation training?! Not them!!

 

“Now kids, it won't be too bad; cousin Yusuke should be there. And Genkai will make sure that she doesn't kill you. All she asks is that you be respectful, and you should have no problems.”

 

“But Mom, isn't cousin Yusuke dead?” queried Souta.

 

Ongi chuckled and shook his head. “No lad, he was only in a coma. You'll see for yourself.”

 

Kagome glared at the wizened old man. “Gramps, I can smell your lie. He is dead, isn't he?”

 

Sangi merely gaped at her daughter. “When did you learn how to smell lies? I know I didn't teach you that, and neither did your grandfather.”

 

“It's a secret,” she said with a smirk. Souta turned to her.

 

“Well, would you teach me?! You know I hate being the last to know anything!” She merely rolled her eyes and hit him on the head, never taking her eyes from the two in front of her.

 

“Well…?”

 

Ongi sighed heavily. “The truth is, yes he died. But he once again walks among the living. And no, not in the manner that Kikyo does. You cannot even tell that he was dead.”

 

Kagome and Souta raised their eyebrows at this, but at that moment the speakers in the station went off, calling for all passengers to board their trains within the next thirty seconds. So they picked up their duffels, turned around, and boarded their train, looking out the windows to wave good-bye.

 

After the train was out of sight, Sangi and Ongi high-fived, scaring several people around them. “Woo-hoo!! Party time!!!”

 

Souta and Kagome sat across from each other, just continually staring. With nothing else to do, they decided to look at each other's outfit.

 

Kagome was wearing a baby-blue halter-top that came down to the bottom of her ribcage/top of her stomach. Her black pants were long and baggy, covering her lace-up, knee-high, steel-toed combat boots. At first glance, her pants only had the average five pockets; but a closer look would reveal about twenty or so more. She also wore a dark, knee length trench coat, but only to cover up her dragon `tattoo', and because she thought it looked sexy with her top.

 

Her hair was braided, which brought it to her knees. Then she pinned it up in a bun with a ponytail in the middle, bringing it to mid-back. Her starburst was all that showed in the bun, making her hair look like an Oreo. The blue tips were hidden on the underside. The bun itself was held up with two chopsticks, which were actually very thin knives, but she didn't know that. Yet.

 

Her make-up was simple. Light blue eye shadow, a hint of blush, and light pink lip gloss. Yes, it was simple, but it made everyone stop and stare. And that made her want to growl in annoyance. Souta just smirked while she glared at him.

 

He was wearing a dark, blood red tee shirt that clung to every dip and curve of his arms and stomach. Sort of like an under-armor shirt, only sexier. His pants were khaki-colored, and were also long and baggy, to hide his combat boots. However, his boots were not knee-high, and he did only have five pockets. He did not have a jacket, but was wishing that he did.

 

He had his hair slicked back, giving it a weird, purple sheen. Other than that, though, there wasn't much to it. But even though it was slicked back, it still looked messily tousled. And, because he was a manly man, he didn't wear make-up. Everyone who passed him stopped and stared as well, making him glare and the temperature to drop slightly.

 

People started to shiver, making Kagome glare even harder at Souta and swiftly kick him in the shin, which caused him to yelp, which caused everyone to stare at them, causing the siblings to blush. (Too many chain reactions, ne?) After five minutes, no one was looking at them anymore, causing them to sigh in relief. Kagome opened up a mind link with her brother.

 

-Souta, do you remember how long this train ride was supposed to take? I forgot. And how can cousin Yusuke still be alive, when he was definitely dead?-

 

+I don't know, Kags. I was just going to ask you the same things. Actually, I think I heard Gramps say something about a three-hour trip. Do you have cards or something, so we don't get too bored?+

 

-Actually, now that you mention it, since we have so much time, I could teach you how to smell a lie. There is a small problem though…-

 

+What could be wrong with that?+

 

-We would have to be touching for it to work. Mind if I come sit next to you?-

 

Souta shook his head and cleared the seat next to him. Kagome stood up and turned around, plopping down nest to him, scaring the other people in the compartment. Kagome leaned her head on top of Souta's shoulder, and he put his on top of hers. It made a very cute picture, especially when they fell asleep.

 

~*~*~*~In Kagome's Mind~*~*~*~

 

-Ok Souta, can you hear me?- Very faintly, she heard him answer with a yes. -Alright, pay attention, this is where it gets tricky. I need you to envision yourself beside me.

And remember to envision yourself with clothes, please.-

 

After a couple seconds, Souta appeared beside his sister, staring in wonder. Kagome laughed at the shock on his face. She pointed at him, still smirking.

 

“Your clothes are backwards and inside out…”
