Chapter 15 - Just like banging your head against the wall

“Where’s Myoga?” Inuyasha growled, as he barged into Totosai’s cave. The old demon looked up briefly as he continued to sip his tea. “Myoga?” he queried, with a somewhat absent look upon his face. “Oh…don’t even start this shit you old fart.” Inuyasha ground out between clenched teeth, as he placed his hand on the hilt of tetsaiga. Totosai blinked up at Inuyasha a few times, looking as if he was trying to remember what the hanyou was talking about. Inuyasha spun and started walking back towards the entrance cursing under his breath. Suddenly he stopped, having felt a sharp pain on the side of his neck. Instinctively, he slapped at it, and watched as the flattened flea youkai floated down to the floor.

“Hello, Myoga-chan.” Kagome said brightly, smiling down at the flea. Myoga popped up and smiled back at the young miko. “Why, hello Kagome-sama! How are you on this beautiful day?”

“Cut the crap, Myoga.” Inuyasha cut in. “Something is going on that involves me and Kagome, and I have a sneaking suspicion that you might know something about it.”

Myoga looked up at the hanyou balefully, then snuck a worried look at Totosai and Siah, while he nervously wrung his hands. “Why, what ever do you mean, my Lord?” Inuyasha picked the flea up off the floor and squished him a little bit between his fingers.

“I’ve been feeling strange lately…” ‘especially around Kagome’ he didn’t add “and, I think you know something about it.” Myoga glanced towards Totosai and Siah again, and a sweat drop started to form on his brow.

“Stupid kid doesn’t know a good thing when it happens to him.” muttered Siah, as he took another sip of tea.

Inuyasha dropped Myoga and rounded on Siah. “What do you know, old man.” he growled from about two inches in front of his face. “Did you guys have something to do with this?” Siah calmly looked at the disgruntled half-demon, and smirked as he shook his head at him.

“Yep,” Totosai piped in “dumb as a box of rocks.” he said, just before Inuyasha whacked him on the top of his head with his sward. “Hey! What did I do?” complained the old sword smith as he rubbed at the bump on his head. Inuyasha’s growling only increased in volume as he stalked closer to the old man.

“You tell me.” Inuyasha snarled at him

“I have no idea what you’re talking about, baka.” Totosai said as he crossed his arms over his chest, and turned his head to look away from Inuyasha, who was now snarling at him quite loudly.

“Myoga,” Miroku said, ignoring Inuyasha’s increased growling “what do you know about Inuyoukai blood bonding?” Miroku stole a glance at Inuyasha as one of his ears swiveled towards them to hear the answer.

“Huh…ummm…why on earth would you want to know about something like that?” Myoga stammered nervously, as he unconsciously backed away a few paces.

“Well, Inuyasha and Kagome have been acting a little strange lately…” Inuyasha’s growl increased as he looked at Miroku out of the corner of his eye, while still maintaining his aggressive stance over Totosai. Miroku continued anyway, “…Inuyasha’s personality has…um…softened…” he flinched reflexively as the growl became deeper, “…and they…uh…seem to be having urges…to…um…” Kagome blushed and stared at the monk, with a look of embarrassment mixed with horror upon her face.

Siah started to chuckle, “And, why is that a bad thing?” Inuyasha’s growl stopped abruptly as he turned to stare at the old man.

Siah folded his hands and rested his chin on his knuckles looking at Inuyasha thoughtfully for a moment. “So…why don’t you just…go with it?” he said with raised eyebrows, and an amused expression on his face.

“Go with what?” Inuyasha ground out, glaring at the old man suspiciously.

“Well, um, if you are having feelings…and she is having …feelings…” he started thoughtfully.

“WHAT THE FUCK! You old pervert! Are you suggesting that I should just…that we should…should…” Inuyasha stammered, turning a brilliant shade of mauve.

“I can’t believe….you just…I…AAAAGGGGH!” he stammered, red faced, as he glared at the older demon. He huffed angrily, and stormed past the others out of the hut, nearly knocking Sango down at the door, muttering to himself “…the nerve…that old pervert…how can he think….” Totosai started to chuckle as Inuyasha’s voice faded as he got further from the cave. Kagome’s face was also quite red at this point, she glanced at Sango then hurriedly followed Inuyasha out the door leaving the houshi and taijia alone with the old men.

The old demons were now laughing openly, holding their sides as they wheezed and rolled around on the floor. “Did you…hehehe…see the look on his face?” Totosai said between waves of laughter, which only caused Siah to laugh harder. “Can you just imagine…hehehe … that clueless idiot…trying to keep his hands to himself..Hahahaha…doesn‘t even know what he‘s doing…hahaha…”

“Ya, like you’re any better Totosai,” Siah wheezed out between chuckles. “Would you even know what to do with those kinds of urges.” He started laughing even harder at the indignant look on Totosai’s face.

“Well, just remember that you haven’t either…” he said with an annoyed look at his old friend, who was now wiping tears from the corners of his eyes from laughing so hard.

“Hey, at least I don’t go hide in the bushes like Myoga does and…”

“I DO NOT!” Myoga shouted from the floor, blushing fiercely, and trying to avoid looking at Sango.

“Really?” Totosai said with one eyebrow cocked, trying not to start snickering. “So, all those times you came back from your travels telling us women and hot springs, you were just…”

“Hm, hm…“ Miroku cleared his throat, while looking at the old men with a raised eyebrow. Sango blushed delicately and turned away. “Excuse me,” Miroku attempted to get the old men’s attention, “but, did you do something to them?”

Myoga chuckled lightly, before he addressed the monk. “Don’t worry, houshi-sama. We didn’t do anything that wouldn’t have happened naturally, anyway. Everything will be fine…if they don’t fight it.” He started to chuckle again. Miroku sighed and rolled his eyes ‘Honestly, and they call me the pervert?’

“Come on, Sango. Lets go catch up with the others. Maybe, we can make it back to the village before dark.” Sango nodded, still looking a little embarrassed as they set out to find Inuyasha and Kagome.
