[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Back on the scene with another exciting episode! Oh, wait, these are just chapters, my bad! Anyways, please read 'em, like 'em, and review 'em! And one last thing...this chapter has something that might be quite offensive to some people...something a child says in this chapter. Remember, it's all for comedy's sake! No flames!

The drive to the daycare was longer than any drive to a daycare should've been. Twice Sesshomaru had to stop for directions, constantly glancing at a road map the whole time. Inuyasha tried to liven up the trip with a game of "I Spy." "I spy with my little eye," he said to Sesshomaru, "Something...white." Sesshomaru rolled his eyes with the easiness of this one. "My hair." "No!" Inuyasha giggled. "Your hair." "Nope!" "My kimono." "That ugly thing? Hell no!" Sesshomaru gritted his teeth. Go ahead, make fun of it one more time and see if I don't slap the shit out of you. "Okay, then. How about...the clouds?" "Uh-uh." Sesshomaru was starting to lose his patience. "The dice on the mirror?" Inuyasha smiled hugely. "Still no. Give up?" Sesshomaru wasn't about to let this kid get the better of him.

"No," he said. Hmm...white...white... He glanced around for another hint. Nothing as far as he could see. Damnit! "Fine," he sighed. "What is it?" "That white car we passed." Sesshomaru froze, then stared at him over his shoulder. "What?" "Do you remember when we passed that white convertable? That's the car." "That was over an hour ago! It's not 'I Spy' if it's some shit you saw from the past!!" Sesshomaru shouted. Inuyasha only smiled. "Fine, I'll pick something more current then. I spy...something white." "If it's that damn convertable..." Sesshomaru started, but Inuyasha cut him off. "It isn't. And further more, it's in this car."

Sesshomaru went over the same checklist he went through the last time, the hair, the clothes, even a napkin he found of the floor. Still no go. "Inuyasha, does this thing really exist?" He had to ask; the kid was about that age where they started making imaginary friends. Thankfully, Inuyasha hadn't done that yet. Yet. "Yes, I can see it and you can see it. If you look in the right places." Sesshomaru had just about had it with this riddle. "How about your ears?" "That's too simple of a spot, think past the obvious." "My teeth?" Inuyasha gave a loud snort at this. "Ha! Yeah the fuck right!" Don't hit him, don't hit him, don't hit him... Sesshomaru chanted.

"Okay, so once again I give up. Where is this white thing that you spot?" "Your eyes." A pause; then: "What?" Sesshomaru asked. "Your eyes." "My eyes-our eyes, are golden." "No, the whites of your eyes. Get it? The whites of your eyes!" Inuyasha fell over in a fit of laughter. But Sesshomaru had to hand it to the kid, the location was ingenious. 'Only if you look in the right places.' Sesshomaru couldn't see the whites of his own eyes unless he looked in a mirror or saw his reflection. A three year old just beat me in I Spy. This is truely a sad day in demon history.

Finally, two and a half hours after they had begun, they neared the daycare. It was way off in the northern mountains for some strange, odd reason. He drove up the winding road that led to it, a small structure tucked off near the sumit. As he pulled up to the doors, a figure came out to greet them. "Welcome!" Sesshomaru and Inuyasha got out, Sesshomaru bowing respectfully to the person since they were his senior by many years. Inuyasha on the other hand, only said, "Man, this place looks like a piece of shit." Sesshomaru quickly slapped his head, making him do a half-assed bow. "I'm happy that you could accomodate my little brother on such a short notice, Lady Kaede." (I'm sure everyone saw that coming!).

Kaede waved his words off. "No matter. Now, that'll be 3000 yen." Sesshomaru's face fell. "What kind of wack-ass price is that?!" Kaede examined her nails as if they were the most important thing in the world, and said in a nonchalant voice, "Unless you can find another daycare center around here," emphasizing on the fact that they were in the middle of nowhere. Sesshomaru sighed and got out his wallet. "So why the fuck did you tell me it was 10 yen?" "Oh, that was just for the call. I don't really have an actuall phone up here. I use the payphone over there." She pointed to a lonely payphone about a hundred yards away from the daycare.

A/N: Ignore the fact that I'm switching back and forth between money currencies, please!

"$10 for a friggin' phone call?! Why don't you just re-locate?" "The mountain air does my old bones some good." "Ooookay," Sesshomaru said slowly. "What about sonas or something?" "Costs too much." "You cost too much!" "Like I said, you can always go somewhere else. A two-hour drive for nothing." Sesshomaru gritted his teeth. "Fine. I'll send an I.O.U." He got back in the car and Kaede gently led Inuyasha inside the daycare. Outside, they could hear the engine turn, a loud back-fire, a hacking cough, and then the car died. A moment later, a furious Sesshomaru came storming in.

"Kami dammit! Go figure the fucking thing's out of gas! Piece of shit car with shit for milage and a peice of shit driver who doesn't know how to refill the damn thing!" The other children stopped and stared at the grown up/teenager who was throwing a fit akin to one of their own. After a while, he straightened out and looked around in surprise. "Oh, did I say all that out loud?" He asked sheepishly. Kaede gave a nod, then put Inuyasha in front of her. "Everybody, listen up. This here's Inuyasha. Considering that his father gives me my pay checks, I'd like all of you to be nice to him." Here, she gave a small shove to him, encouraging him to socialize. Sesshomaru smirked to himself and pulled up a way too small chair. Seems like there was only one chair ment for someone his size and Kaede was hogging it with no intentions of getting back up. He sighed and took his seat.

Inuyasha shuffled slowly toward no particular direction. Really, he was headed toward a small plastic tub filled with lincoln logs. Right before he reached them, a kid with long dark hair and crimson eyes snatched them up. "Mine! Don't touch!" He shrieked at Inuyasha. He possessively hugged the container to his chest, daring Inuyasha to try to take them. "You were over there playing with cars. How come now you want to play with the logs?" Inuyasha asked him. Maybe he could try to reason with this kid. "I want to play with them now." Inuyasha shook his head slowly. "Fine, have 'em. I'll play with something else." He headed over to the cars that the boy had just played with, but in an instant, he had flown across the room and taken those, too.

"Listen, not everything here is yours!" Inuyasha shouted. Another boy with dark hair raised his head up from playing with a marbles set. "Yeah, Naraku. Lady Kaede said share." "Lady Kaede can suck my one inch dick, for all I care." All movement in the room stopped. "I know ye did not say what I think he said." Kaede said. Naraku turned slowly toward her. "No, ma'am. That was Miroku. You know how much of a pervert he is." Kaede looked at Miroku now. "Yes, that is so. But that was Naraku's voice I heard and so it is Naraku who will bear the punishment." She got up, grabbed Naraku by his arm, and led him to a corner of the room, him kicking and screaming.

Sesshomaru gave another sigh. Kami, I might as well have left Inuyasha at home. Now I gotta listen to a whole group of little brats annoy the hell out of each other? It just never stops, does it?


Well, I guess to explain Sesshomaru's situation, he hopped out of the frying pan and into the fire! Oh, and did anyone notice where I got the idea of Kaede's location? Years down the road this won't make sense, but I'm quite sure everyone's seen that skittles commercial where the guy goes to buy a pack of skittles and the man behind the counter says "$300." The other guy goes, "$300?" and the other man says, "Unless you'd like to buy your skittles...somewhere else around here." And the funny thing is, they're on a cloud in the middle of nowhere. There's not another cloud in sight and it leaves you to wonder, was that supposed to be heaven or something? And how the fuck did he get up there in the first place?! Anyways, please review and tell me what you thought of this!
