Previously…
A mischievous glint shone in his eyes. 'Well well, brother… I didn't expect to see you here. I guess this might be interesting after all…' Inuyasha thought, as he gazed from Kagome to Sesshoumaru and smiled evilly.

Chapter Two
 
Misery loves company
 
 
Inuyasha resisted the tugging on his leash coming from Kagome. “What is your problem, you pea-brainer? Come on puppy boy!” Kagome chided.
 
 
Inuyasha feigned ignorance. He was determined to repay her for the pure torture she had put him through when they were `strolling'.
 
 
Shrugging off her blasphemous remark on the creation of dogs, he lurched forward and went galloping towards Sesshoumaru despite Kagome's vice-like grip on the leash. Of course, the unfortunate creature behind him was yelling blue murder as he sped up, sprinting towards his lifetime goal.
 
 
His heart leapt in anticipation.
 
 
Veering slightly off direction, he roughly brushed against Sesshoumaru's leg, skidding to a stop a meter in front of him with his paws buried in dried mud. Kagome, as he anticipated, was not as fortunate.
 
 
The momentarily stunned female sailed through the air and collided into a bewildered Sesshoumaru. Slamming face-first into a hard chest, she desperately fumbled for something to maintain her balance. Her hands flew towards the nearest object and ended up with a fistful of silky silver hair.
 
 
In a split second, his hands were all over hers as he attempted to pry his hair free from her death-grip, which without a doubt would do no good to his scalp. However, her female-instincts kicked in at the wrong time. Drawing up her knee-
 
 
She rammed it into his family jewels.
 
 
His vision flashed white before his brain registered the pain in his reproductive organs.
 
 
`Ouch.' Sesshoumaru winced mentally.
 
 
Inuyasha doubled over in silent laughter which slowly but surely deprived him of his oxygen intake. Not a sound was heard from Sesshoumaru but the intense pain was reflected in his eyes as his pupils narrowed into tiny slits that screamed out in agony.
 
 
Despite the fact that his body was furiously protesting from fatigue, Inuyasha summoned every ounce of his strength and charged towards Sesshoumaru's back, giving him a final shove towards Kagome.
 
 
For the second time in his entire life, Sesshoumaru, the great taiyoukai of the west, was caught completely unaware.
 
 
He fell right on top of her, caught in between her legs. Kagome however, was unable to register what had happened as the breath was knocked out of her. Sesshoumaru on the other hand, had other things in mind. For example, where or more likely what his hand currently rested on.
 
 
In an attempt in break his fall, he completely stretched his hands in front of him. Alas, he landed on something delicately soft, his hands on the well-developed chest of a young woman who looked barely 20.
 
 
Incoherent thoughts ran through his mind before he snapped out of his daze, hastily removing his hands from her person. `What had centuries of chastity led him to?'
 
 
He rose gracefully into a standing position, looking at her clearly for the first time, instantly regretting his action as deep blue eyes filled with mirth blinked innocently at him.
 
 
He had never seen eyes of such deep blue before, yet, the happiness and joy which radiated from it was a stark contrast to such a dark colour. A figure such as hers was a rare find these days, and so was her immaculate face. Alas! His stubborn chauvinistic pride refused to acknowledge her beauty, deeming it ridiculous for a youkai to floor at a mere ningen.
 
 
Kagome was not any better. Dusting off the sand that had collected on her pants, she huffed angrily at her predicament before looking at the deep golden pools of her `victim' for the first time.
 
 
`Omg, it's a crime to have someone so beautiful…' `He must have been a sex God fallen from heaven to mock me of my pathetic love life,' she mused. Her breath hitched as a masculine voice drew her back to reality.
 
 
She flushed a bright red, stammering out her apologies though it was futile since her words were barely coherent. Shuffling her feet nervously, she twiddled her thumbs as she took a sudden interest in her converse shoes.
 
 
Sesshoumaru watched in amusement as Kagome squirmed under his gaze. She was different. Many others would have envied and turned impossibly green at her previous position. However, those people were flocking after his money and looks, not for who he was.
 
 
He was judged unfairly by his political influence, not for whom he truly was inside. The materializations of humans disgusted him. It was revolting. Moreover, saying that female demons were scarce was an understatement. Most female youkai were after the influence of his rank anyway. His despise towards females unconsciously became a notch higher.
 
 
Almost instantly, seemingly assuming the persona of a pregnant woman with serious mood swings…
 
 
“Hey! Don't give me that Mr-icicle-man attitude! I know I knocked into you and kic-“
 
 
She flushed prettily and Sesshoumaru could not help but amuse himself with her childish antics. “And?” he prompted. Although she knew that he had every intent to provoke her, her fiery attitude was not about to be put off.
 
 
“Are you just plain mute or particularly fond of monosyllabic words?! I was in the wrong but you could at least accept my apology instead of making me feel like I'm talking to a cow!” Accused Kagome, her finger giving his chest a hard jab after each sentence. Sesshoumaru twitched irritably in annoyance.
 
 
“Your attitude problem mister, make you more like an asshole than you already are! I apologized and you, in return, should- be- a- gen- tle- man!!!!!” she screamed out in frustration, with each syllable a decibel higher.
 
 
Sesshoumaru closed his eyes and massaged his temples, attempting to cool his youkai before it lashed out and mutilated a pretty girl into tiny bits. Tapping in a considerable amount of youki, he conversed with Inuyasha through telepathy.
 
 
“Hanyou. What pathetic scheme is that worthless brain of yours trying to cook up? Don't bother straining yourself.”
 
 
“Shut the hell up, after all, its f***ing high time the old goat got a mate.” Inuyasha retorted, his voice hiding pure desperation to rid himself of the bonds which held him to Kagome.
 
 
“However, I am not as low down as you to mate a random human which comes my way.”
 
 
“For Christ's sake just shut the f*** up and appreciate the girl.”
 
 
“… This Sesshoumaru refuses to comply with your absurd proposal.”
 
 
“Stop going all third person on me, you basta-“
 
 
However, Sesshoumaru promptly cut him off as Kagome was staring blankly at him as he had continued to stone even after she had finished her ranting.
 
 
“Are you alright?”
 
 
And here came the monosyllabic reply.
 
 
“What?! You… ARGH I can't stand talking to you!” With that, Kagome spun on her heel and stormed off, dragging a still-trying-to-communicate-with-Sesshoumaru Inuyasha with her, somehow tripping over her own feet on the way.
 
 
Sesshoumaru merely smirked, contemplating on how such a strange human could exist.
 
 
 
 
“Tadaima!!!” Kagome hollered to no one in particular as she slid the door open. “Great, now I'm reduced to talking to myself… Is it so hard to remember that you live alone?” she mused, shaking her head. Inuyasha gave an uncharacteristic snort, earning him a first-prize bonk on the head. “Oh well, guess I should turn in.” she murmured before proceeding to take a bath.
 
 
(The next day)
 
 
“Holy shit!!!!” her indignant cry of the unfairness of time resounded throughout the entire household. “I'm going to be late… I'm gonna be late… I will be late…” she unconsciously chanted as she attempted to tie her hair, button her blouse and pull on her socks all at the same time.
 
 
“You could have helped… Good-for-nothing old fraud…” Her curses went unheard as fifteen chapters from the dictionary of incoherent words spewed out. Inuyasha yawned and stretched lazily, having learnt that it was better to be accustomed to her words of abuse.
 
 
Minutes later, Kagome succeeded in cramming a snarling canine into the backseat of her car before making a certain inu turn green when she slammed the brakes on as she skidded into her favourite parking lot- a huge plot of land which regular customers had taken great care in avoiding.
 
 
Greeting Sango with her usual chirp, she strode off towards her room, eager to plop into a comfortable chair and whisk back to fantasyland. To her utter dismay, it had to wait before Sango interrupted her fantasies with information which she doubted would be pleasant.
 
 
“Hey, Kagome, did you catch news of the girl that was sent to the orphanage yesterday?”
 
 
“Iie, poor girl… do you know her name?”
 
 
“Sorry but no. The people were unable to contact you and so I had to play the role of your personal message receptionist.”
 
 
At that, Sango winked mischievously, “Getting busy?” Earning her a playful smack on the back.
 
 
“I think you are spending too much time with Miroku. But that's not the point, my battery was flat.”
 
 
Sango flushed an interesting display of red. “Well, guess you should check up on her during lunch.”
 
 
“Of course.”
 
 
(12.30pm in the afternoon)
 
 
“Hey, Sango. Lunch?”
 
 
“Sure, I'm feeling food deprived.”
 
 
However, fate brought a certain lecherous monk to interrupt them on their way out.
 
 
“Good afternoon, my lovely Sango. You grace me with your presence. How about lunch with me?” he asked, his charm increasing to a high intensity. Well, he could give you high intensity if you get what I mean. (This should make you happy eh, Shermaine?)
 
 
Not surprisingly, Sango agreed without a second thought and left the clinic hand in hand with Miroku.
 
 
Kagome laughed at their teen-like antics before lunching with a grumbling Inuyasha. `They progress fast,' she mused. `They've known each other for barely a day and look at them. I better call Sango lest she might end up in some weird place in the morning.' she chuckled at this, but somehow found herself trusting Miroku not to be one of those serial rapists despite his groping habits.
 
 
Snapping out of her thoughts, she eagerly headed towards the orphanage.
 
 
(At the orphanage)
 
 
“Konichiwa onee-san!” Shippou squealed before launching himself at Kagome. Kagome laughed merrily and managed to `un-stick' Shippou from her. His joy was evident whenever Kagome went to visit. `It isn't surprising though,' Kagome thought. `Loosing his parents at such a young age… It's a miracle that he remains in touch with his emotions.'
 
 
“Kagome onee-san?” Shippou looked inquiringly at her, successfully snapping her out of her trance. “Sorry, must have been stoning. What is it Shippou?
 
“Nothing… Oh yeah, I have made friends with the new girl! Let me introduce you to her!” Shippou chirped happily, tugging at Kagome's hand.
 
 
(Moments later…)
 
 
“Konichiwa… umm…” the girl looked over at Shippou for help.
 
 
“Kagome onee-san,” Shippou mouthed back.
 
 
“Oh, okay… Konichiwa Kagome onee-san!!!” the girl squealed out. “Rin's name is Rin! Gokigen'you Kagome onee-san! ”
 
 
Kagome mentally winced at her repetitive way of speaking before giggling at Rin's antics. “Konichiwa Rin! Nice to meet you too!” At the same time giving her a bear hug.
 
 
Rin laughed contentedly before her eyes widened in glee as she spotted an oncoming person behind Kagome.
 
 
“Konichiwa Sesshoumaru-sama!!!”
 
 
“Nani? Sesshoumaru?” Kagome asked, and turned.

Miffy-Chan: Now wasn't that a nice cliffy?
 
 
Nicky-Chan: Like hell it was…
 
 
Miffy-Chan: @#$%!!!!
 
 
Sesshoumaru: This Sesshoumaru wants both of you to shut the f*** up for the sake of all things good.
 
Inuyasha: Oh My God, the world must be coming to a f***ing end. My Sesshy pretty face boy has all grown up!!!
 
 
Sesshoumaru: For your information, my dear brother, I have grown in every aspect while you, on the other hand, does not seem to have any mental developments ever since you were born.
 
 
Miffy-Chan: Hai!! Okay, anyways, please review! We won't update until we get 10 more… MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
 
 
Nicky-Chan: Ignore the insane person over there. She's overly stressed by the upcoming tests/pts, worthless teachers who can eat my dirt and much too infatuated with the sickening play-boy over there…Oh, btw, there's a list of Jap words we've used so far and their meanings.
 
 
Miffy-Chan: Hey, talking about Sesshoumaru. *bawls* SESSHOUMARU-SAMAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
 
 
Sesshoumaru: Wench, you will tell me what happened to your retarded companion to make her even more deranged.
 
 
Nicky-Chan: Don't `wench' me you royal pain in the ass. It's not my fault that you have pathetic worshippers… Anyway, we saw a distorted version of Mr Icicle.
 
 
Sesshoumaru: WHAT. Who is the one that dares to degrade this Sesshoumaru?
 
 
Miffy-Chan: EXACTLY.
 
 
Nicky-Chan: Were they degrading you? I was under the impression that your tail WAS sewed onto your cheek. And your face was wider than your whole body. Oh, and your hair was just one big piece of felt. Anyway, I have yet to compliment them on their excellent workmanship. It looked like the duplicate of you.
 
 
Sesshoumaru: (watches as Miffy-Chan chases Nicky-Chan all over the stage, the former trying to thrash the latter with a worn-out looking pillow) (Nicky gets Sephiroth to thrash Miffy with his 3m Katana) Hn. They look too busy to try and get people to review. (Acts seductively but fails miserably) (hint hint)
 
 
Inuyasha: Feh. He's trying to get you people to review this hopeless excuse of a fanfiction. (gulps as both Miffy and Nicky freeze and throw death glares at him, Nicky takes action and borrows Sephiroth's sword) Oops.
 
 
Miffy-Chan : (throws a satisfied glance at Inuyasha, who was currently lying unconscious on the stage with a sadistic-looking Nicky grinning away at her handiwork)
