Chapter 10
Why God Feared Build-A-Bear

Kagome seemed in a very good mood today, to which the reason behind the teenagers good mood, remained a mystery to the hanyou. Inuyasha sat across the room from Kagome, eyeing her suspiciously with a single raised eyebrow, while the raven haired beauty sketched on her artists pad, unaware of the look she recieved.

She dressed casual, with faded stonewash blue jean flares, a brown belt and a white tank top. Her feet were bare as she sat in the window seat, humming along to the tune on the radio. She really seemed quite happy today.

Why she was happy, was what got to Inuyasha. Usually when he saw that smile on her face or her mood seemed chipper, she would 'sit' him five seconds later. So he had good reasons to be suspicious, especially if his neck was on the line. Literally.

When the song ended on the radio, Kagome turned her head, noticing for the first time, Inuyashas gaze.

"What?"she asked curiously.

"What are you so happy about?"Inuyasha snorted out.

"Well, someones grumpy today,"she beamed. "Well if you must know, today is my birthday!"

"Your birthday?"Inuyasha questioned.

"Yes, my birthday. You know, the day I popped out of my mothers-"

"Okay, I don't need details, Kagome,"Inuyasha interupted.

"Kaede even gave us Mall passes for today and some spending money to celebrate!"Kagome bounced over to the shelf where two passes sat.

"Mall passes?"Inuyasha asked. "What's a mall?"

Kagome stopped dead in her tracks.

"You don't know what a shopping mall is?"she asked with wide saucer eyes.

"Am I supposed to?"Inuyasha asked.

"How do you shop? Where do you get your clothes?"Kagome asked still in an unbelieving tone.

"Naraku,"Inuyasha answered. "So what's a mall, anyways?"

"It's a marvelous place, a heaven on earth!"Kagome began. "With bargains, and clearance, and sales!"

"Oh my,"Inuyasha answered. He pondered this mall place even if he didn't know what a bargain was.

"Oh and the selections are endless!"Kagome continued on, even though Inuyasha wasn't listening. "And we get to go! Five hundred dollars for my birthday to spend on anything I want!"

"What's in a mall anyways?"Inuyasha asked.

Kagome was lost in her own world.

"...and the new ramen food place!"she continued on. Inuyashas ears perked at this. He grabbed Kagome by the shoulders and shook her.

"Did you just say ramen?!"Inuyasha asked.

"Yes?"Kagome answered with dizzy eyes.

"Well, what are we waiting for?!"Inuyasha snatched the passes and they were off.

***

Inuyasha latched onto Kagome like a little kid would to its mother. While Kagome had starry eyes and a dreamy gaze latching onto sale signs and the hundreds of stores, Inuyasha gave a fearful look and tightened his grip.

"Kagome,"Inuyasha began.

"Yes?"Kagome answered Inuyasha with a dreamy tone.

"I'm scared,"Inuyasha said. "I thought you said this was a heaven on earth?!"

"It is,"she continued with her dreamy tone.

"There's too many people,"he pointed out as they began to walk along.

"I know,"Kagome said. "Oh my gosh! SALE!" She quickly turned towards Inuyasha and handed him a hundred dollar bill. "Here, go buy something."

"What am I supposed to buy?"Inuyasha asked. But Kagome was already gone. "Kagome?" He shrugged and continued to walk along. "I'm hungry."

And onward Inuyasha went, in search of that ramen shop Kagome had mentioned earlier. He passed a tuxedo shop, a bathing suit shop...which he stopped by shortly to browse. When a scent caught his sensitive nose, he found out exactly what he wanted.

RAMEN WORLD! DEAD AHEAD!

A predatorial grin came to the hanyous face.

"Oh yeah,"he continued on before shortly running into someone.

"Aw crap, I'm sorry,"Inuyasha said helping up the person.

Up bounced a freakishly overly happy woman whose smile made him cringe.

"Hiya! Welcome to BUILD-A-BEAR! (Authors Note: DO NOT OWN! DO NOT SUE!)"the woman said. "My name is Penny!" A man popped out of nowhere.

"And I'm BENNY!"he chirped.

"I'm hungry?"Inuyasha stated.

Penny and Benny pulled Inuyasha into the store. What Inuyasha saw made him cringe even worse.

"Here, pick out a bear! And we'll stuff it and pump it full of magic and rainbows!"grinned Benny.

"Or a rabbit that we'll fill with happiness and dreams!"Penny exclaimed.

"Do you have anything for me to put my vomit in?"Inuyasha asked. Penny looked at Benny confused.

"Hey Benny?"

"What Penny?"

"Lets get him this stuffed doggie!"

"Great idea!"

Inuyasha watched as they shoved a stuffed animal skin in his arms. It was a white dog. How typical.

"Uh, what's going on?!"Inuyasha exclaimed in a confused tone as they pushed him along to the stuffing machiene.

"This is Lenny!"Penny introduced the man at the stuffing machiene.

"Hi Penny! Hi Benny!"Lenny waved.

"Hi Lenny!"the two overly happy probably on some medication that Inuyasha desperately needed to warn the world about, said. Inuyasha waved weakly.

"Well lets stuff this little creature,"Lenny said. He began to pump the creature full of fluff before shoving it into Inuyashas arms.

"Is that cuddly enough for you?"Lenny asked.

"Um...yes?"asked Inuyasha, unsure of what to do.

"Now take this heart and make a wish and we'll sew it into the doggie,"Lenny said handing Inuyasha a small little heart.

'I wish these people would let me leave!'

"Great! What'd you wish for?"Penny asked.

"Uh..."Inuyasha sputtered on.

"No, don't tell! It might not come true if you do,"Benny urged.

Inuyasha shut up quickly. He desperately wanted his wish to come true.

"Aww, this doggie looks just like you!"exclaimed Penny. Inuyasha gave a blank look.

"Uh..okay,"he replied. "I'm just going to leave now..."

"Not without clothes!"Penny gasped.

"I'm wearing clothes...aren't I?"Inuyasha asked making sure he had pants on.

"Not for you, for your doggie silly!"Benny exclaimed.

"Hey Penny,"began Lenny.

"Yeah Lenny?"

"Why don't you show him the selection?"Lenny suggested.

Inuyasha desperately wanted to leave. Penny piled doll clothes on his stuffed dog toy, while Inuyasha looked around only to see the kids in the same situation as he is. Stuck there with no hope of getting out.

"Aw, lookie at the doggie!"Penny cooed. Inuyasha looked at the creature with a blank expression. It had bows, and frilly things hanging from it.

"Okay now, can I go?"Inuyasha pleaded. He wanted Ramen dammit!

"But now you need to give your puppy wuppy a namey wamey!"Penny dragged Inuyasha to the small computer.

"I feel sicky wicky,"Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

"I'll help,"Benny came over.

"Uh...thanks,"Inuyasha said.

"So what do you want to name this cute little thing?"Benny asked.

"Why do I get the feeling you're not looking at my dog,"Inuyasha asked scooting away. Benny scooted closer.

"Pick a name,"Benny suggested.

"How about...uh...crap...Bob?"asked Inuyasha.

"Bob, what a lovely name,"Penny popped up from nowhere.

"GAH!"Inuyasha shouted from suprise.

"Congratulations, you're the proud friend of Bob the Doggie,"Benny grinned.

"Can I leave now?"Inuyasha asked.

"Not yet,"Penny said.

"What now?"Inuyasha groaned.

"You have to pay!"Penny stated.

"What?! I didn't even want the dog!"Inuyasha shouted.

"That'll be fifty dollars!"Benny said. Inuyasha gaped as he took the hundred dollar bill and returned with his change and a box holding the stuffed dog named Bob.

"Come back soon!"Penny, Benny and Lenny waved.

Inuyasha broke into a run.

RAMEN WORLD! Here comes Inuyasha.

However, fate would not be so kind to the hanyou, as someone had snatched his wrist.

"Inuyasha?"came the voice of Kagome.

"Kagome?"

Inuyasha noticed the many bags she held.

"Awww, is that a present for my birthday?!"Kagome squealed.

Inuyasha lifted up the box. "Uh...yes?"

Kagome dropped her bags and gave Inuyasha a large hug and a giant kiss on the cheek. Inuyasha felt flustered especially with all those people watching.

"It's a puppy?!"Kagome squealed louder. "...named Bob...oh well not like names matter."

"I want ramen,"Inuyasha said.

"Oh darn, look at the time! Our passes are going to expire! Time to get going,,,Inuyasha you can hold these bags,"Kagome said shoveling the bags into his arms, while she carried the stuffed doggie.

Inuyasha began to cry.

"I WANT MY RAMEN!"
