After dinner Myoga explained of a strong old bull youkai, Yuri, that was in his fathers court but was released from his position when Sesshomaru was declared Emperor of the Western Lands. He now resided in the Southern Lands, which Inuyasha had to grumbled at, it meant at least one run in with Koga.

"Feh, what good is another old man gonna do."

Myoga calmly replied,"Inuyasha, not only did Yuri, train your father, but he did such a good job that your father fired him to train all of his soldiers."

"If he was so good then why would Sesshomaru fire him" Kagome asked, genuinely curious.

Myoga scratched his beard,"Anyone that was overly loyal to your father was fired when Sesshomaru took over. You see, Yuri was a captain in your father's army but suffered a debilitating back injury in battle, when your father saw him fall, he flew over the heads of his enemies to pull him to safety in a dramatic rescue. Ever since that day, he worshipped the ground InuTasho walked on. But since Sesshomaru put an incompetent replacement in, the army's effectiveness has been greatly reduced. Not only were his military appointments ineffective but his adminstrative and economic advisors were lacking as well. The prosperity and stability of the West has declined dramatically since your half-brother took over. Why do you think he personally patrols the land himself?"

All Inuyasha did was grunt.

Kagome got up and said she was going home. Inuyasha stood up to esquort her to the well.

When they got halfway to the well Inuyasha told her to be back quickly because they were going to head out tomorrow after lunch. She clapped her hands 'perfect just enough time to do what I need to do.' Inuyasha picked Kagome up bridal style with a startled squeak.

"Remember wench, tomorrow at noon or I'm coming to get ya!"

"Yes sir, Huggable Hanyou." She blushed as soon as she said it. Inuyasha turned red too.

"Alright wench you ready to go?"

"Sure, thanks for bringing me"

"Uh, no problem, and he threw his arms over the well and dropped her in."

Gods what had it been, 20 seconds? And he was already missing his wench? 'Did I just call her my wench?' You sure did, he answered himself. He missed her sent the most, though he would deny it vehemently. The reason he loved to carry her was to have her scent wrapped on him like a cocoon all day long...Gods he could get lost in her earth shaddering scent.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

As Kagome threw her backpack over the side of the well she wonder why Inuyasha was being slightly more affectionate with her and dismissed as needing some affection after being alone his whole life. Kagome's family was home and they asked her a bunch of questions about her adventures on the other side of the well. She just shook her head and explained how everything was fine and the quest was going well. It was far from the truth, she was 18, a virgin, had only 1/4th of the jewel, and her beloved just got his ass kicked by his older brother. 'It won't happen again, not if I can help it, we'll show Sesshomaru who's boss!'

She quickly excused herself from the living room saying she was tired and ready for bed. As she undress and collasped on the bed she thought happily at least I don't have to take anymore tests.

She awoke the next morning when the sun gently caressed her face. She got dressed and went down to breakfast. Her mom handed her a plate of bacon and eggs as she entered the kitchen with a warm smile.

"What will you be doing today Kagome?"

"I planned on going to the store to get more supplies, and I need to check out a couple of books from the library and be threw the well at noon." Stuffing another fork full of food in her mouth

"Sounds like a busy day, what are the books for sweetie?"

"Just some reading to help with Inuyasha's training."

"Alright darling, heres some money for supplies."

"Thanks mom!, I'll be home by lunch" she said as she ran out the door.

Luckily for her, Tokyo University is only 5 blocks from the shrine and they have one of the largest libraries in Japan. Making her way through the crowed sidewalks. She stepped in the massive 6 story library and went straight to the computer directory. For the first search she typed in "diet" and wrote a few books down. For the next search she entered "training" and wrote those books down. Luckily for her they had all their health and fitness books on the fourth floor. She easily found her book on dieting but finding one on training proved to be the most difficult. So she just picked two with the freakest looking muscular people and called it a day. As she was waiting in the check out line she saw the perfect book for Miroku, How to be a Gentleman, she giggled like a school girl and added it to her pile of books. Just as one of the assistant librarians called out next, she noticed it was Ayumi.

"Kagome" she asked shocked,"What are you doing here?"

"I justed needed to check out a couple of book." she mumbled.

Ayumi looked at her book selection and blushed 'Wow I didn't know Kagome was such a fitness freak, but then again she has a really great butt!...Wait How to be a Gentleman?"

Kagome saw her questioning look, "Its for a friend, I swear."

Ayumi gave her a nod and asked her for here student I.D. card.

"Ayumi you know I don't go to college."

"Oh, well I guess your lucky I'm checking you out then." Ayumi pulled her I.D. out of her purse and used her I.D. to check out the books.

Kagome thanked her profusely with promises of a get together real soon. Kagome started walking towards the door, While Ayumi admired her great ass.
