*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
Inuyasha starred at the girl that nearly knocked the wind out of him; then he looked at the wolf demon that was sending him icy glares of hatred.
 
Great, more enemies, a wolf demon that doesn't know the difference between the girl he beat up in grade school and Momo, the same girl that keeps calling me her brother…*sigh* Just my luck…
 
Momo looked at Inuyasha with confusion in her eyes, then she looked at Koga. “That's because he's just a stupid bully that has no life.” Inuyasha had forgotten about Momo's telepathy.
 
Whoa! I gotta remember this telepathy stuff!
“Momo? Um, ya see, I don't need any enemies…(if you can call him that) And I would really like to live through High School…So whadda ya say you an' me get outta here now and as soon as my mom shows up, I can talk to her and we can drop you off at your house, OK? I gotta go get braces today…” Inuyasha looked at Koga, then all around the restaurant.
 
Koga stared angrily after them. “So that mutt thinks he can just walk away from a REAL demon, eh? Well, I'll show him. I hope he can live that long.” Momo felt his hatred toward Inuyasha and she couldn't help but laugh. She paused; turning around, she made a face at Koga, sticking her tongue out, holding the bottom of her eyelid down and flipping him off. Koga fumed! He stood there at the counter, crushing his after school snack in hatred. Inuyasha and Momo walked off toward the cross walk, and saw Inuyasha's mom pull up.
 
“Hello, honey! Ready for your appoint-” Izayoi stared at Momo with a quizzical look in her eye. “Who is this pretty young lady?” Inuyasha looked at Momo and blushed heavily, while Momo giggled. Izayoi loved it when her son was around Sango and Miroku and they would be talking about girls, boys, and dancing. But now she could tease him about having a girlfriend. Oh, this is rich…Izayoi smiled evilly. Momo didn't notice it but Inuyasha did. He backed up about ten feet and stared at his mom.
 
“What are you thinking about?” He had that look of `I don't trust you…' and all his mother did was giggle devilishly. Momo looked at Inuyasha and then to Izayoi, and back again.
 
“Why are you glaring at your mommy Inu-chan? You know that is disrespectful don't you?” Momo asked.
Izayoi looked at Momo.
 
“Inuyasha,” she started. “Why don't you invite Momo to come with us?” Inuyasha looked at Momo.
 
“NANI??!! Are you crazy?!” Izayoi looked at Inuyasha with apparent annoyance.
 
“Don't be rude!” Izayoi looked at Momo. Momo smiled back.
 
“It's ok, Inuyasha's mommy! I don't mind!” Momo smiled again and looked at Inuyasha who seemed puzzled.
Why is she acting like a young girl? She has to be at least 17-18…Izayoi thought.
 
“Well, Momo dear, why don't you and Inuyasha squeeze together here in the front seat? I have my business stuff in the back and Inuyasha's father has his swords back there.”
Inuyasha starred at his mom for a minute before getting in.
 
“Mom,” he said, “I don't think both me and Momo will be able to fit up here….” Izayoi looked at the short Momo and then looked at Inuyasha.
 
“Momo? How flexible are you?” Momo starred at Izayoi.
 
“Huh??” Inuyasha and Momo said in unison.
 
“Momo? How flexible are you?”
 
“Um…I…I don't know…why?”
 
“You can sit in Inuyasha's lap.” Inuyasha's eyes nearly popped out.
 
“NANI?? NAAANIIIIII?????”
 
“Oh Inuyasha shut up.” Momo said. She had a bored look on her face. “Shut up and lemme in.”
 
Inuyasha had that “EXCUSE ME???” look on his face as he put his arms up so Momo could climb into the car.
 
Izayoi laughed at her son as Momo situated herself in his lap. She put her butt between his legs at an angle with her head on his left shoulder; her legs were bent and pulled into the car as much as she could get. Inuyasha closed the door and Momo put her feet in the armrest of the door.
 
“Mom? What if the police catch us like this?” Inuyasha asked. “You would be in a lot of sh…” he paused.
 
Izayoi looked at him with “The Look” and he corrected himself. “Stuff…”
 
“That's what I thought you said.” Izayoi started the car and began to drive off towards the Orthodontists' office.
 
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
They were about five minutes away from the orthodontists' office when Izayoi asked,
 
“So, Momo-chan? How do you know Inuyasha? I haven't seen you before,” Inuyasha looked at his mom with a warning glance.
 
“Well,” Momo started, “I met Inuyasha today in last period! Inuyasha is my gua..”
 
“Momo is my project.”
 
Izayoi stopped quickly at a red light and looked at Inuyasha and Momo.
“Your…project…?”
 
“Yep! Inuyasha is going to study me and write reports on me! I get to do the same!!” Momo cheered. She was a little too cheerful than Inuyasha wished she was.
 
“What we mean is,” Inuyasha started, “Momo and I are going to be Guardian and Charge. I'm her guardian for the year; I'll look after her and wrote down things I have learned about this school year. She is the final project that that letter was talking about. The one we got before school started.”
 
“Oh,” Izayoi said slowly. “I see. So…”
She looked at the light as it turned green and continued on; no body said anything to each other the rest of the way.
 
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
When they arrived at the orthodontists' office, Inuyasha refused to get out of the car.
 
“INUYASHA, GET OUTTA THE CAR RIGHT NOW!!!” Izayoi yelled.
Inuyasha usually put up fights, but this was ridiculous! He had managed to get himself locked in the car with Izayoi's purse and keys. The sad thing about the purse was, he knew her cell phone was in it. Momo tried not to laugh as Inuyasha's mother yelled at him and all he did was sit in the car, ears plastered to his head and growling.
 
Momo tried to coax Inuyasha out of the car with a calm soothing voice…But it wasn't working.
 
His ears lay against his head, teeth bore, growling at Izayoi through a small slit in the window. His nose crinkled as he continued to growl.
 
“H-HEY!! DON”T YOU GROWL AT ME YOUNG MAN!! WATAKUSHI WA SORE OKASAN!!(I am your Mother!)” Izayoi pointed an accusatory finger at Inuyasha, earning herself another snarl. “*SIGH* Psh…Teenage boys are SO stupid!”
 
Momo stifled a laugh, also earning herself a snarl. “Inuyasha, why don't you come out?” Momo asked in a soothing tone, hoping it would calm down Inuyasha. She didn't want to use mind tricks on him just yet…
 
“GET YOUR LAZY BUTT OUT OF MY CAR AND INTO THAT OFFICE!!!!” Izayoi yelled again. This wasn't working…
 
“Izayoi-sama? Momo is telepathic and can use it to get Inuyasha out…but…”
 
“But what dear?”
 
“But it may cause him to be sleepy…”
 
“Just get him out…please,” Izayoi smiled at Momo and then looked to Inuyasha whom was making faces. He stopped as soon as he saw the devilish look on her face. He sank low in his car seat as Momo approached the car.
 
“Inuyasha…” Momo began to hum a song and she clasped her hands together.
 
She closed her eyes and continued to hum the lullaby as her hair became white; cat ears appeared on top of her head, as did a bushy cat tail. It was like a snow leopard. Inuyasha starred at her…he knew something was going to happen. Her eyes opened slowly, as to show him no fear…they were…green?? Momo smiled and held out her hand in front,
“Inuyasha…” she hummed, “Please come out…your mom says she won't hurt you. *giggle* Please…I'll come with you…” Her smile didn't fade; It made Inuyasha feel kinda' happy actually…
`What's going on? It's like I can't control my own body…' Inuyasha's body felt like it was in someone's arms…They were holding him… He heard a voice in his head.
“You want to come out of the car…”It repeated several times. “You don't want to sit here any more…It's too hot…” Inuyasha began to sweat, breath hard…
`Nani? W'
Inuyasha saw a girl…she wore a teal-blue kimono, with her wavy hair surrounding her. It framed her face…she looked almost exactly like him…only he didn't have a tail and green eyes. `What the heck is going on??!!'
He started walking towards the girl, though he didn't want to. It was like her voice, though it was humming, was calling him over to her…He felt like he was falling into nowhere…
 
Inuyasha felt himself in someone's arms again…His mouth was sore and he was almost in tears because to crucial pain. He moaned slightly, opening his eyes and looking up at a girl. The sunlight behind her seemed to act as a halo or something.
 
“Are you ok Inuyasha?” Her voice was full of worry. He was sort of standing up…more like leaning on her shoulder. He heard another voice…he recognized them both…but who were they??
 
“It's ok; I have him Inutaisho-sama! I can get him inside,” Inuyasha wasn't sure of where he was, or who was holding him…all he knew was that he was in pain and lying down.
“Inuyasha? Are you ok?” He shook his head.
 
He managed a short and husky reply of,
“It hurts...”
 
“Shhh…It's alright…shh…” the girl cradled Inuyasha's head and sang…
 
In the moonlight I felt your heart
Quiver like a bowstring's pulse…
 
In the moon's pale light,
You looked at me…
 
Nobody knows your heart…
 
Her voice was beautiful and loving. She sang and cradled him until he fell asleep.
