Episode Three

<3<3<3<3<3<3
Last time on I love Kagome… Kagome and the men had their first group dates together. During their group date, Inuyasha and Kouga disappeared. Leaving, Reinkotsu, Jinenji, and Hiten to enjoy all the quality time with Kagome. During the second group date Sesshomaru and Naraku seemed to have mad an awkward, but good impression on our lady. While we all questioned Jakotsu and Bankotsu’s sexuality. During a surprise twist at the elimination, it was revealed that Reinkotsu has some unnecessarily sticky fingers. Unfortunately he was eliminated. What will happen this week? This is I LOVE KAGOME.

<3<3<3<3<3<3

A maid-bot knocks softly on the door to Kagome’s suite door.
“Come in” she mumbles into her pillow.
“Good morning Ma’am” the maid-bot says in a robotic voice. “I have your breakfast and a note for you.” She says as she sets down a silver serving tray with a plate of eggs and bacon and a sealed envelope. Kagome sits up in bed and snatches up the letter; she opens it hastily and pours over the contents of the note before a huge smile spreads across her face.
“Is this true?” she calls out.
“Is what true?” the voice says as if his mouth is full.
“This note says you’re giving me the day off to enjoy myself at the spa.”
There’s the sound of someone spitting into a sink. “Sorry you caught me in the middle of brushing my teeth. Yes it’s true you’re going to the spa while the men battle it out for a single date.”
Kagome seems to not be paying attention as she chants to herself, “spa day, spa day,” in a sing song voice.

<3<3<3<3<3<3

The Kagomail waits patiently on its silver stand for someone to come and retrieve it. Bankotsu walks in to the foyer and notices the bright green envelope. He picks it up inspecting the back and front before walking into the living room where most of the men have started to congregate.
“Hey guys, there’s Kagomail,” he calls. A few stragglers come in from the kitchen and bedrooms.
“What’s that?” Jakotsu says curiously.
“This is the Kagomail, that thing Reinkotsu stole. According to the instructions on the back we’re supposed to read it aloud when everyone is present.” He says reciting the back of the envelope.
“So that’s what we’re doing today?” Miroku says to summarize.
“Well read it already,” Inuyasha says grouchily from the couch where he’s sitting cross legged and with arms crossed over his chest.
“Alright,” Bankotsu says as he tears open the envelope. “Good morning,” he begins, “Welcome to your first challenge, as we currently have an uneven amount of men in the competition we can’t have group dates so instead you will all be participating in a challenge to see who wins a ‘single’ date with Kagome. Please head out to the backyard for further instructions”
“A private date with Kagome, I have to win she’s my woman after all,” Kouga says proudly.
“You’ll win over my dead body.” Inuyasha says hotly.
“That can be arranged.” Kouga says menacingly.
“Oh really?” Inuyasha challenges shoving a finger into his chest.
As they continue their argument, everyone else heads outside to receive their instructions.

“Hello gentlemen, and welcome to your first single date challenge, you will see before you nine podiums with scattered puzzle pieces of the Shikon no Tama. The challenge today is to complete the puzzle and the first person to complete the puzzle will be the winner of today’s challenge and will win the single date with Kagome.”
“What happens if we lose?” Naraku say’s skeptically.
“The two who come in last place will be forced to serve the winner and Kagome on their date” The voice said evilly. There were murmurs of dissent through the crowd before the voice continues. “Where are Inuyasha and Kouga?”
“Fighting again,” Jinenji says quietly.
The voices sighs, “It never ends with those two. Hey you two get in here” there’s a sound like the cracking of a whip as Kouga and Inuyasha are flung onto the patio cushioned by their rears. “Thank you for joining us if you could both take your places.”
Inuyasha and Kouga both stumble to their feet and fumble towards the two empty podiums, they look around confused at the puzzle pieces and everyone’s set expressions.
“What are we doing?” Kouga asks,
“You would know if you were paying attention,” the voice accuses, “now on your mark, get set go!”
Everyone attacks their puzzles while Kouga and Inuyasha stand by in confusion.
“What should we do?” Inuyasha asks Kouga.
“Hell if I know, if you hadn’t distracted me I would be winning,” Kouga charges.
“Keh, you wish,” Inuyasha scoffs. He looks over at his closest neighbor, who happens to be Jinenji, he’s one third the way done through his puzzle. “Are we putting together a puzzle?” He says raising a brow in confusion. He looks down at the pearlescent puzzle pieces, while Kouga seems to have caught on and attacks his puzzle pieces with a vengeance. A few seconds later Inuyasha seems to have realized the objective as well and begins working feverishly on his puzzle.

Meanwhile a few feet away, Naraku and Sesshomaru are neck and neck piece for piece.
“Don’t waste your time, Kagome and the ultimate prize will be mine,” Naraku says maniacally.
“Don’t waste your time talking I’ve just pulled ahead,” Sesshomaru replies.
Naraku looks down and he has indeed pulled ahead by one piece the shape of a pearlescent jewel is apparent now.
“Damn you won’t keep ahead,” Naraku says defiantly.
The ending sound blasts. “Stop where you are we have a winner,” the voice announces.
Naraku and Sesshomaru look at each other’s incomplete puzzles.
“Who won?” Miroku asks while he looks at his barely touched puzzle.
“Hiten is the winner,” the voice announces proudly.
“WHAT?” eight voices say in unison,
Hiten shrugs his shoulders, “What can I say I have quick hands.”
Several contestants shake their heads in disbelief as the voice continues. “And in last place Kouga…”
“HA,” Inuyasha mocks.
“… and Inuyasha.”
“HA, yourself,” Kouga says pointing a finger at Inuyasha.
Inuyasha scowls at Kouga, preparing himself for another fight.
“The two of you will be serving Hiten and Kagome on their date tonight.”
They stop in their fight, and each scream “WHAT?”

<3<3<3<3<3<3

Kagome soaks in the fragrant water of a swimming pool sized bath, cucumber slices over her eyes and a refining mask, to cleanse her pores, covers her face.
“I love baths,” she sighs as she sinks further into the tub.
“I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself.” The voice says amusedly.
“Hey I’m naked under here!” Kagome accuses, as she attempts to cover herself with the suds.
“Believe me you don’t have anything I want to look at.” The voice says sarcastically.
“What are you gay? Or a woman, it is kind of hard to tell, you have a pretty ambiguous voice.” Kagome says curiously.
“I’m the host,” the voice says plainly.
“Oh well,” Kagome says as she rolls her eyes. “Why are you here?”
“I’ve come to give you the results of the single date contest.”
“What single date contest?”
“I told you about this morning,” the voice says tiredly.
“All I heard was spa day,” Kagome says thoughtfully.
“Well, anyway, there was a contest today to win a private date with you and the winner was Hiten.”
“Hiten really?”
“We were all just as surprised as you are.”
“Well I guess it could be interesting,” Kagome said uneasily.
“Very, now get ready to go they’ll be a limo coming around to take you on your private date.”

<3<3<3<3<3<3

A white stretch limo pulls up as Kagome and Hiten wait outside of the mansion. Kagome is wearing a Sapphire blue halter dress, her hair is pinned up with soft tendrils that touch her shoulders. Hiten had discarded his usual armor for a casual button up shirt and a pair of slacks.
“Have a good time you crazy kids!” the voice calls as they climb into the limo.
Inuyasha and Kouga come out seconds later dressed in black vests, black slacks and collared shirts with bow ties.
“I feel stupid,” Inuyasha mutters tugging on the edge of the vest.
“These actually fit really good,” Kouga says admiring his own form.
“This is entirely your fault you know that right?” Inuyasha accuses.
“My fault, if you’d just step aside and let me and my woman get along with our lives.” Kouga says agitatedly.
“Keh you’re delusional,” Inuyasha scoffs.
“You’re the one who’s delusional,” Kouga counters.
“Okay guys break it up, we have things to do.”
“He started it,” Inuyasha mutters childishly.
Kouga opens his mouth to reply when the voices booms, “ENOUGH,” Inuyasha flattens his ears to his head and Kouga looks like a dog that’s been struck. “I’ve had more than enough of your bickering, get it together and fight on your own time, now get in the car!”
“Yes sir” they both shout before jumping into the dilapidated bus that will take them to serve the date.

<3<3<3<3<3<3

The location of the single date is at a sea side restaurant along a pier overlooking the ocean. It’s nearly sundown and the twilight illuminates the open dining room. A single table has been set in the center of them room for the two of them. With white linen and tapered candles already lit for ambience.
“Right this way” Says the host, a thin man with an even thinner pencil mustache. He motions to pull out Kagome’s chair when Hiten intercepts him.
“Allow me,” He says bowing to Kagome.
“Thanks Hiten,” Kagome says nervously.

“Just look at him!” Kouga shouts from behind the kitchen door, “Pulling the chair out from my woman, who does he think he is?”
“I don’t know, but I’m not going to let this fly.” Inuyasha says cracking his knuckles menacingly, “if he even lays a hand on her I’ll run him through.”

“This is kind of awkward,” Kagome says rubbing the back of her neck. She looks away from Hiten and out across the oceanscape as the sun slowly begins to lower beneath the skyline.
“I don’t think it’s awkward at all just two people getting to know one another,” Hiten says charmingly.
“I guess you’re right,” Kagome smiles.
“Do you know how beautiful you are when you smile?” Hiten asks charismatically.
“Oh well” Kagome says flustered her cheeks turning a charming shade of red.

“Did he just say she was beautiful when she smiles?” Inuyasha asks disbelievingly.
“He did and I’m ending this party right now.” Kouga says bursting through the swinging kitchen doors.

“Kagome, I would like to say what an honor it is to be here with you tonight” Hiten says taken her hand in his.
“Well I ...” Kagome begins before Kouga interrupts.
“Good evening,” He says with a wolfish grin.
“Kouga,” Kagome says surprised.
“Hi Kagome, Hiten” He says scowling at Hiten. “I’m going to be one of your waiters tonight can I get you started with a drink.” He says turning to face Kagome leaning in effectively blocking her view of Hiten.
“I’ll have an Iced Tea,” Kagome says sweetly.
“I’ll take a Coke,” Hiten says casually.
“I wasn’t asking you,” Kouga snarls.
“Hey you’re both their servers so serve,” the voice scolds.
“Fine, One iced Tea and one coke,” he says before turning on his heel to leave.
“I didn’t realize the others would be here,” Kagome says conversationally.
“Yeah the bottom two losers have to serve us,” Hiten says offhandedly, “but enough about them let’s talk more about you.”
“What do you want to know?” Kagome asks innocently.
“Like what’s your favorite sport?” He says smoothly.
“I play Volley ball at school a lot, so I guess Volley ball.”
“Sounds like fun,” he says moving his chair closer to hers.
“It is,” She smiles.

“She’s smiling!” Kouga fumes.
“I’m going out there,” Inuyasha says pushing past him with the drinks.

Hiten makes a move to put his arm around Kagome when Inuyasha pushes between the two of them.
“Here’s your drink,” he says gruffly setting them down.
“Inuyasha you’re here too!” Kagome says happily.
“Yeah you want to make something of it?” He says crossing his arms over his chest.
“No it’s nice to see you,” She says smiling up at him.
“Well…” Inuyasha says blushing, “I’m going to take your orders so what are you going to have?” he says trying to cover his own embarrassment.
Kagome picks up a menu delicately, “I’ll have the grilled fish and vegetables.”
“And I’ll have the…”
“Who said…”
“How many times do I have to explain things to you two you are serving them BOTH,”
“Well I guess I’ll have the steak, and a baked potato.” Hiten says cautiously.
“Fine,” Inuyasha scribbles angrily, before stomping off.

“He’s not getting the message,” Inuyasha says to Kouga worriedly, as Kagome talks animatedly with Hiten.
“I think it’s time for more drastic measures,” Kouga says evilly.
“I agree,” Inuyasha says in a conspiring tone.

The sun has started to go down and there’s a momentary lapse in conversation. Kagome seems to be enjoying herself. She looks out to the setting sun as the last sliver peaks out above the waves.
“Beautiful,” Kagome comments.
“I can think of something more beautiful,” Hiten says suavely.
“Oh?” she asks innocently
“Yeah,” he replies taking her chin in his hand looking her eyes deeply. He lowers his head parting his lips slightly when a large plate of food comes crashing down over his head.
“Oh I’m sorry,” Kouga says in a fake sincere tone.
“Oh no Kouga look what you did!” Inuyasha says coming up with a towel, “Let me help you with that.” He manages to smear the food all over his face and down his clean shirt.
“That didn’t help at all,” Kouga say with fake concern.
“You’ll have to change!” Inuyasha says lifting him up by the arm pits.
“No I’m fine,” Hiten glares at the pair of them.
“No, no let us clean you up,” Kouga says dragging him by the arm.
“I know what you’re doing,” Kagome says to Inuyasha once Kouga and Hiten are out of ear shot.
“Oh?” he says noncommittally.
“Thanks,” She smiles.
“No problem,” He replies before following after Kouga and Hiten.

<3<3<3<3<3<3
The portrait wall bears down upon Kagome. She concentrates on the wall for several moments before collapsing onto the comforter.
“How am I supposed to choose?” She moans aloud.
”Having some problems?” The voice asks amusedly.
“You could say that,” She replies humorlessly.
“I don’t understand why you find this so difficult just eliminate who you feel the least connection with.”
“But I don’t know want to hurt anyone’s feelings,” Kagome says shyly.
The voice sighs, “well you didn’t get to eliminate who you wanted to last week why don’t you eliminate that person this week?”
“Good idea that’s what I’ll do!” Kagome exclaims.
“Great I’ll bring everyone together”

<3<3<3<3<3<3

The elimination ceremony, the men have all gathered and await Kagome’s arrival.
“Who do you think it will be this week?” Jinenji says nervously.
“It won’t be this Sesshomaru,” Sesshomaru says loftily.
“For now,” Naraku says evilly.
“I barely got any time with her today,” Bankotsu grumbles.
“But we spent all day together,” Jakotsu whines.
“And it was great,” He says patting Jakotsu’s head.
Inuyasha wrinkles his nose at the two of them, “That’s disturbing.”
“You didn’t have to go on a group date with them,” Miroku says tiredly.
“You don’t seem very nervous,” Kouga comments.
“Why should I have no interest in winning this contest,” Miroku says matter-of-factly.
“Well you should all be worried since I made a lot of progress with Kagome tonight,” Hiten says snidely.
“How are your burns?” Inuyasha mocks.
“Fine,” He mumbles, rubbing his bandaged head from where the hot plate of food burned him.

“Gentlemen please welcome Kagome to the elimination ceremony.”
A hush falls over the crowd, all of them are waiting in anticipation for Kagome’s arrival. Kagome walks up solemnly she’s wearing a floor length blue gown, the black case clutched in her delicate hands. She sets the case down onto the podium to the side of the platform.
“Thank you all for waiting,” she begins, “This was a difficult decision, but in the end I feel like I made the right choice, the first person I’d like to call is… Hiten.”
There’s some murmured descent among the men but a flash of lightening near the ceiling reminds them all not to interrupt the ceremony.
“Thank you for a wonderful… er… evening,” Kagome says graciously.
“My pleasure,” he replies taking her hand in his kissing it lightly.
“The next person I’m going to call is… Inuyasha.”
Inuyasha gives Kouga a smug grin before swaggering to the front to receive his Shikon Jewel replica.
“Thanks for today Inuyasha,” Kagome whispers.
“No problem,” he mumbles before heading back to the group.
“The next one shouldn’t be a surprise, Kouga will you come up.”
Kouga practically jumps to the platform, where Kagome places the necklace around his neck.
“Thank you for trying to get along with Inuyasha tonight,” she says so only he can hear.
“Anything for you Kagome.” He grins wolfishly. Then he struts back to the group.
“Next I would like Sesshomaru to come up,” Sesshomaru walks up to the platform, regally. “I haven’t spent time with you lately but I’d like to get to know you more,” she says sweetly.
Sesshomaru nods slightly before gliding back to the group.
Kagome makes a worried stare in Inuyasha’s direction before calling the next name. “Naraku,” she says quietly. Naraku stalks forward to the platform. Inuyasha’s mouth drops open as he mouths the word ‘Naraku?’ “I know we’ve had our problems in the past, but you showed a lot of potential at out group date and I’d like to keep you in the game.”
“I’m delighted you have given me this chance” he says evilly.
“Next, my good friend Miroku,” Kagome says smiling at him as he looks around confused before walking up to the platform.
“Kagome are you sure?” He asks confused.
“Of course Miroku I need you around.” She smiles secretly, Miroku physically gulps before heading back to the group.

“We are down to three contestants, Jinenji, Bankotsu and Jakotsu, Kagome who’s next.”
“The last person who is safe from elimination is… Jinenji,” Jinenji heaves a sigh of relief as he approaches the platform. He kneels down to receive his Shikon replica, “Jinenji, I didn’t forget about you and that beautiful flower you got for me, thank you very much.”
“It was nothing,” he says sheepishly.

“Jakotsu and Bankotsu, you are the final two one of you will be staying and the other will be taking the next train to loser town, Kagome who will it be.”
“Well first off I’d like to say you’re both very… er… interesting people. I enjoyed the group date we all had together, but I have to eliminate one of you.” Kagome pauses, “So I’m sorry Jakotsu, you’re eliminated, and honestly I’m not even sure if you’re into woman you spent more time talking to Bankotsu or grilling me about Inuyasha than you did trying to find out about me.”
“What, you can’t make me leave without Bankotsu,” Jakotsu says hysterically.
Two guards appear, “I’m sorry sir you’re going to have to leave the lady has made her decision.”
“But I didn’t even get a chance to try and kill Inuyasha,” He moans.
“Let’s go crazy,” the second guard says as they drag him away.
“Well that was definitely interesting,” the voice says amusedly, “congratulations to all the winners from this week, have a good rest and it will be back to the grind stone tomorrow.”

Cast of Cam:
The losers have their last say,
Jakotsu: First off, I’d like to reply to that implied gay comment, just because a person is obsessed with some one’s blood, and wants to kill them in a romantic way, doesn’t mean I’m gay. I mean it doesn’t make them gay. Secondly, what Bankotsu and I have is special and you’re all just jealous of our relationship. And finally in response to the crazy comment, I’m perfectly well adjusted for someone who kills people for a living and is slightly off balance.
