Chapter 15: Oh Brother!

"One thing, if you're going to have to start behaving yourself here and acting more civilized for a change…" Sesshomaru started, but then stopped as he caught sight of Inuyasha's face in the soft moonlight. He sighed and went on. "Well I for one can't climb up the side of the house in case you hadn't noticed I'm missing some important body parts….Perhaps I'll just fly up there instead." So as he started floating slowly upwards he called to Inuyasha, "Ja ne Oto-chan!"

"Just a minute Sesshomaru! You can't do that either!" he cried as he reached out and grabbed Sesshomaru's ankle. "Come back here, Maru-chan!"

"What did you say?"

"You heard me, I called you Maru-chan. Remember it's what I used to call you when I was little? You know cuz I had trouble saying your whole name. And come to think of I really don't remember you calling me anything other than 'Koinu'. Puppy, whelp, moron, stupid, asshole; oh yeah! My all time favorite now that I think of it was 'you little shit' and you know why I remember that one so well, Onii-chan? Cause when I called Oyajii that I nearly got my mouth ripped off my face! But the thing that made it all worth it was watching Oyajii beat the crap out you when I told him you said it was a nice thing to call people." He started laughing and was surprised to hear a faint chuckle escape from Sesshomaru as he gently came back down when Inuyasha let go.

"Well now that our pleasant little interlude of brotherly love is over, shall we walk in the front door instead of using the weh…I mean Kagome's window? You're right I'm still not fully recovered and the thought of climbing back in between those soft Pikachu sheets is a most pleasant one." He shivered in the night air.

"Why not, it's the least I can do seeing as you actually were listening to me when I told you Kagome's name. You know if you had given me a chance it could have been always like this…"

"Don't push your luck, Koinu, I don't think I can suddenly start all this brotherly shit now as if nothing had ever happened between us and things were different. I'm sorry I don't know if I can ever be the way you want me to be, but if will make you happy, I'll call a 'little shit', ok?" he smirked. "Now get this door open as I really, really need to get some sleep before daybreak." This last was said as Sesshomaru tried unsuccessfully to open the front door.

"Geeze, you can't hold the Tetsusaiga, you can't be nice to me if your life depended on it, and now you can't open the freaking door? Now who's the stupid one? The moron, the asshole; shall I go on?" Smirking Inuyasha tried to open the door and was met with the same success Sesshomaru had. "What the hell?! What did you do to it Sesshomaru? Break it? Shit! Now we're gonna to have to climb in Kagome's window or we're sleeping out here tonight. Sorry but you're gonna have to pass on those Pikachu sheets."

"I thought you said we can't climb in there…." The was a brief silence as both strained theirs ears hoping to catch more of the faint whoosh and click that they nearly missed hearing. "Tell me the wench… I mean Kagome, damn it! Didn't just close that window? These windows in her village maybe nice as you can look out them without having to uncover them, but they are very hard to open. Just like this door…." He added dryly.

"Spare me the sarcasm, Onii-chan, as I don't have time for it. We have to figure out a way to get in without waking up Higarashi-san. Why don't you wait here and I'll go climb up and get Kagome to open the front door for you? I promise I'll be back in five minutes as I know she feels sorry for you and will open the door if I ask nicely. And if I'm not back in five, but say more like twenty minutes…well it's because I finally got her alone without you disturbing me!!!"

"You little Shit! You'd do that too; wouldn't you?! This is how you repay me for being nice to you? Make me wait here outside in the freezing cold while you go bed the wench?! You're stupider than I thought if you think I'm going to let you do that! I'm going with you or you're not going at all!" Sesshomaru glared at him.

Inuyasha glared right back. "I thought it was too good to be true that you'd actually do something nice for me and treat me as a brother instead of some stranger you couldn't trust farther than you could spit! I thought maybe I got through to you Sesshomaru, but I can see I didn't and I'd be wasting my time if I tried. So if you want to come with you'd better come now as I don't plan on waiting for you!" Inuyasha spun on his heel and took off for the side of the house where Kagome's room was. With a roar Sesshomaru took off after him and nearly collided with him when Inuyasha suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Ssshh!" Pointing upwards Inuyasha got Sesshomaru to look up to see the window in question as Inuyasha tried to get him to be quiet and listen. "Look I'm going to chance it and climb up there and hope no one sees me doing it. What I need you to do is keep a look out for anyone coming."

"Why would anyone come here in the middle of night? You mean to tell me there are ningen in this village, who need spiritual guidance at this time of night? Can't they wait until morning??? Then again, I for one am no expert on their ways, so I suppose it is possible…then what shall I do if I see anyone? Should I rip their heads off? I think I can still do it even if I am feeling a bit ill and all. Or would you rather I do something else?"

"Hunh??? Look Sesshomaru, I don't want you ripping anyone's head off, ok? Look, how about when we get back, I find someone for you to do that to? In fact, and noooo it's not Naraku, I'm talking about here, so shut up and listen!" Taking a deep breath and letting it out he went on. "If you want to rip someone's head off like I said I know this stupid wolf Youkai, where that would be an improvement. Anyway you don't have to worry about being fully recovered to do that either. He's such a wimpy excuse for a Youkai and seeing as you're such a big strong Youkai and all… I figure he'd be no trouble at all for you. In fact I can see you handling the whole thing in about five minutes that is if he doesn't kick the shit out of you first. And before you ask me something stupid like why don't I just kill the bastard myself, well I just don't have the time to do it right now seeing as some asshole, who shall remain nameless went and locked us both outside!"

"Don't tell me it's the one that stole your wench now is it?" he laughed. "Well now if I really cared about you and the wench, I mean Kagome… I'd have ripped his head off for you a long time ago, but seeing as you're determined to make me stand out here all night and not get any sleep, you can go and do the job yourself, Oto-chan!"

At that last remark, Inuyasha started to reply, but changed his mind and shrugged instead. After making sure Sesshomaru would call him if anyone showed up, Inuyasha started to climb up the front of the house. Just as he was about to tap on the glass in hopes of waking Kagome up, he heard Sesshomaru call out to him that someone was there. And looking down to see what his brother was talking about he was met by a bright light in his eyes as a man in a strange outfit, that he remembered was called a policeman, asked him "what the heck he thought he was doing up there?"
