[ X - Adult: No readers under 18. Contains Graphic Adult Themes/Extreme violence. ]

A/n: This isn't a chapter, really… but this is… well, a chapter devoted to you guys entirely!! My loving reviewers… I seriously… everytime you guys review, I blush so heatedly, and I get all choked up and proud. Thanks you guys. Thanks so much.

I decided the angsty was a little too fervent, so I decided, for your reading entertainment, to add a little filler chapter as a joke. A little comedy, if you will. I hope you guys enjoy it… and like I said, it's all for you guys! Thanks so much!! Keep reviewing and maybe I'll start sending you cookies!! :3!And I decided to give Shippo a little break, because Shippo hasn't been very active in this fic. Neither has Kirara… I'm gonna give Kirara more love in the next chapter, though… (hopefully, I swear!) :s… Ah well! Hai, here you go! Arigato gozaimasu, mina!

Chapter Null-n-Void: How Very Much You Suck

Love: Shippo

It was a bright and early day, and Shippo was laying on the floor coloring with the crayons Kagome had so nicely given to him. Inuyasha had given him a good beating that morning (and was quickly `sat' immediately after Shippo had run crying to her), and Shippo wanted revenge… but being minute in size as he was, he could only release his anger in disoriented scrawling on the floorboard of Kaede's hut.

And he definitely wanted Inuyasha to see them…

Cackling evilly, Shippo completed the last of his furious doodles, and sulked outside, trying to appear defeated. Inuyasha was in a tree, obviously still seething from this morning's `osuwari' episode. He was growling lowly to no one in particular, his foot twitching in aggravation, and his ears flat against his skull in threat.

Peeeerfeeect… Shippo thought to himself… Shippo “sulked” back to the front of the hut, and scattered tops everywhere. He did not forget the acorns in front of the door, or a bucket of weeping mushrooms above the door, coated in honey.

The bucket was to be set off with someone stepping into a line.

The trap was set… and as cliché as it was… to Shippo, it exuberated of brilliance.

Shippo grinned devilishly, racing back to Inuyasha on all fours.

“Nya, nya, nya! Inuyasha's pouting! Poor Inuyasha got `sat' by momma!” Shippo stuck out his tongue, pulling down the lower part of his eyelid to `flip off' Inuyasha the best way he could. Inuyasha scrambled up with the speed only a demon could procure, his fist clenching in front of his face, clearly visible to the kit and with a definite promise of pain. A vein popped out of Inuyasha's forehead, as he ground out, “You better get the fuck outta here, you damn brat! I'm not it the mood!”

Shippo just taunted, “What, gonna hit me so you can eat dirt again?” He raspberried Inuyasha one last time before squealing and taking off as Inuyasha jumped off the tree and yelled at the top of his lungs, “THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DEAD YOU FUCKING NUISANCE!”

Shippo cried out in an attempt at a war cry, sailing straight into the hut… instead, his cry sounded more like a dying warthog. But he didn't care. He just waited to hear the cursing, and the sound of the bucket being released…

But it never came.

Instead, a large crash came down onto his skull, and he began to wail fervently.

“INUYASHA!” Kagome's discernable outrage was heard from clear across the village. All the village tenants just sighed, and continued on with their daily chores… this happening was part of their daily routine.

Inuyasha seemed to panic, as he tried to find a place to hide. He didn't want to meet dirt again… not for the thirteenth time today…

A large sigh came from the front of the hut, as Miroku leaned against the doorway. Miroku gave Inuyasha a toothy grin, standing there so he could have a front seat view of the hanyou's predicament, which Inuyasha gave a death glare to the houshi for. Miroku just seemed to smile all the greater, as Kagome tried to push her way past the monk.

“INU-” She was cut off, giving a high pitched squeak as she clung on to Miroku, loosing her balance because of the acorns. Shippo glanced at her in horror… This wasn't supposed to be like this!

She hugged Miroku for support, who lost his own balance and cursed as they began to fall forward… as they fell forward, they tripped over the line, which dumped the honey-coated mushrooms all over Miroku… And Kagome landed with a painful THUD on the ground, the tops providing uncomfortable bedding…

And Sango rushed in right then, brandishing her Hirakotsu, worry clearly spoken in her face. “I heard Kagome scream, and I came as quickly as I could! Is anything wrong?!”

She looked to see two shock-stricken youkai, and Miroku and Kagome in a very… compromising position on the floor, both of them looking at her in utter terror with huge blushes on their faces. And Kagome looked as if she were going to die.

Miroku was covered in honey… and mushrooms… And Sango wasn't sure how to react at all…

So to save herself from her own embarrassment, she turned her red face to the outside. “Hm! Oh, what's that?! I hear Kaede calling for me! Bye guys!” And she rushed out without another word.

Inuyasha and Shippo just stared at each other and began laughing hysterically, almost to the point of tears, forgetting their earlier dispute. This was just priceless. Absolutely classic!

Kagome shoved Miroku off of her, slapping him. “HENTAI!”

“Stop laughing, Inuyasha!” She was a healthy cherry red by now. But her expression caused him just to laugh even harder, and she shrieked at him in pure fury, “OSUWARIOSUWARIOSUWARIOSUWARI!” Inuyasha groaned in pain as she fled from the hut in utter embarrassment. But Shippo just kept on laughing.

This was better than anything he could have originally thought of…

“…Hey… what the fuck are these drawings?!”

Shippo turned and looked at Inuyasha, as realization dawned on him… Oh…no…

Inuyasha read off the captions one by one. “ `Inuyasha being sat'. `Inuyasha being beaten by Sesshomaru'. `Inuyasha getting make-up put on by Kagome'. `Inuyasha in a dress'. `Inuyasha is a girl'. `Inuyasha sucks'. `Inuyasha needs to be sat to hell'. `Inuyasha loves Miroku'… WHAT IN FUCKING HELL IS THIS, SHIPPO?!”

Shippo just laughed harder, running out of the hut with a look of pure glee on his face… He had about a thirty second headstart on Inuyasha before the spell was released, but that thirty seconds made his entire day worth it.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Shippo watched his mother ride away on Kirara as he waved his hand lovingly at her, wishing her luck…

When did things ever become so complicated?

He huffed, and Sango looked down at him, ruffling his hair. “C'mon Shippo… while we wait for Kagome, would you like to eat something?”

Shippo nodded enthusiastically, him bad humor vanishing at the thought of good food. “Yeah! Thanks Sango!” Sango smiled at him, offering him her hand. “Let's go, then.”

He nodded, looking up at Miroku who was also smiling down at him.

Shippo grinned to himself… it was nice having a family.
