InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Daughter of the West ❯ Lucky Rabbit's Foot ( Chapter 6 )

[A/N: A note for those who review on MM.org. Please don't. No offense, but I can't read them for some reason. Just go to FF.net and submit them, cause the fic is on there, too. Sorry for any inconvenience. Thanks! PS: Sirius, to answer your question, that is true, but Kimi's a cat demon. From what little I know about cats, I'm not really sure if their sense of smell in that superior. If I'm wrong, feel free to tell me, but I think their strong point is more their eyesight.]

Daughter of the West

Chapter 6: Lucky Rabbit's Foot

Usagi threw a punch at Kagome, heading straight for her shards. She would've snatched them off of her, but Aikina got a firm hold of her hair, stopping her instantly. Aikina pulled the rabbit demon towards her by her hair, causing her to let out a large shriek. "Lemme go!" she yelled. A low growl came from Aikina. "I've had it with you, Usagi!" she hollered. Usagi quickly pulled herself free, and jumped out of her way. "Well, that ain't my probem'," Usagi yelled back. They yelled at each other for a few moments, and then got back to the fighting, which, like the time before, showed no progress.

Inu-Yasha sighed, annoyed with both Aikina and Usagi. He shook his head, and then reached down for the Tetsusaiga. He quickly drew the sword, and in a split second, transformed it into the large fang. As soon as he did this, he noticed Kagome looking at him with a very piercing look.

"What are you doing?" she asked. "Going to finish off this battle," he replied simply, taking a step forward. "You can't just get in the middle of something like this," she said. "Yeah I can. Now watch me do it," he said sarcastically. Kagome grabbed onto his shoulder. "I'm sure Aikina can fight it out in time," she said. Inu-Yasha sighed again, an annoyed look on his face. "Well, time isn't our biggest asset at the time being, and I don't wanna waste anymore time playing cat…well, half-cat and mouse," he said. Kagome let go of him and sighed. "Do as you please," she said. Inu-Yasha smirked sarcastically at her, and then charged right into the battle.

Inu-Yasha swung his sword, right out at Usagi. But she saw the blade coming at her, and being so fast, she jumped out of the way, leaving the blade slicing toward Aikina. In a split second, she sidestepped the missed attack, and just as she passed Inu-Yasha, she elbowed him in the back of the head, sending him straight for the ground. The only reason he didn't fall flat on his face was because he jammed his sword into the ground and regained his balance. And at the same moment, as if it had been rehearsed, they spun around, glaring at each other, and yelled: "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!?!?!"

Everyone was startled by their yelling, especially Usagi. "So them two are mates, huh? Gee, I didn't mean to screw up any love affairs," she said.

Miroku, Sango, and Kagome all smirked, hoping to hold in their laughter. An uncle and his soon-to-be-discovered niece together. Just wait till Sesshomaru gets wind of it. Heads would roll. Probably Inu-Yasha's, but…

Usagi walked over to Miroku and smiled flirtatiously. "Don't worry, sugar. I'll be back, n' then you can have s'more eye candy," she cooed. Then she turned to Kagome. "N' don't think I won't be back for them gems, neither. I need some strength in my hands, too." With that, the hyper-active hare demon ran, or more like hopped off. "They're called jewel shards, you stupid country-bumpkin!" Kagome called after her. "It's no use," Kimi said, waving her hand. Kagome shook her head a little. "I know, but she's such a bimbo," she growled, "I mean, hitting on Miroku. I mean…come on."

"Don't think I don't know that," Miroku said unhappily, "She's below even my standards." Sango's jaw dropped in amazement. "You have standards?!" she gasped. Kagome and Kimi both started to laugh a little. "Hey, hey, hey," Miroku said defensively, "I can name three women I haven't asked to bear my child yet." "Oh, really? Three our of what…forty-seven thousand, six hundred and twelve?" she asked. Miroku thought for a moment and nodded mockingly. "Yeah, I think that's about right," he said sarcastically.

Kimi gaped a little at him. That's when they heard Aikina and Inu-Yasha cursing at each other again. "Oh, go to hell!" Aikina shouted. "Blow me!" Inu-Yasha yelled back. Sango sighed a little. "He argues with her almost as loud as he does with Kagome," she said. "Now that's saying something," Miroku said. Kimi smirked a little, and then called after her daughter. Aikina walked over, an angered look on her face. "He is such an asshole!" she shrieked, talking to no one in particular. Inu-Yasha, however was still spouting some choice words.

"You're the idiot, not me! I was only trying to finish up the battle that seemed to be giving you so much trouble!" he shouted. Kagome sighed and walked over to him. "Shut up, now here," she said, placing a cup of ramen in his hand. He looked down at the Styrofoam cup and then back at Kagome. "What is this?" he asked. "We're taking a rest. Just stay away from Aikina and eat your ramen, and I'm sure you'll be fine," she said sarcastically. Inu-Yasha made a face, but quickly went off to dig a fire pit, and sending poor Shippô out for wood.
