~Playground 10:20 AM~
 
 
 
The first five minutes of recess were typical. Kouga followed Kagome wherever she went, all the while calling Inuyasha as many names as his little brain could think of. Miroku and Inuyasha took great pleasure in trying to “slay” their new enemy, Naraku.
“The demonic aura surrounding him is very strong, Inuyasha.” Said Miroku.
“Yes, I sense it too.”
Naraku decided to play along as well. Only, he was insane enough to believe them.
“Kukukuku.” He laughed. Wow. It seems he had the same creepy laugh even when he was little. Somehow I'm not surprised.
“We should get him now. He looks weak and has no weapons.” Inuyasha whispered to his friend.
“Yeah. Unsheathe your tetsusaiga, Inuyasha.”
“Right.” With that, he pulled out a plastic spork from his pants pocket. “Prepare yourself, Naraku!”
“Kukukuku. You fools. You actually think you can defeat me?”
“He's trying to mess with our heads!” Miroku shouted. “Don't let him talk you out of it!”
“I know!” He took off, plastic spork in position. “Hyah!”
Inuyasha sprang in the air. It would be a direct hit! Yes!
“Stop it boys!” Miss Kaede puffed. She came running and caught Inuyasha in the air.
“Do you want me to send you three back inside?”
“NO!” Naraku shouted.
“Please! We'll do anything!” Miroku bowed at her feet.
She sighed.
“All right. Then you'd better behave yourselves.”
“We will!” The three shouted. The teacher retreated back to her bench so she could eye the other brats-I mean students.
Inuyasha turned to Naraku.
“You won't escape us! Don't worry, we'll get you sooner or later!”
Naraku stared at them. Obviously not paying attention.
“Hello? We're talking-“
“Kukukukukukukuku!!” he laughed so maniacally that the teacher had to come back and check on them.
Meanwhile…
Sango and Kagome were enjoying a game of tag with Kouga. He was it. He tagged Kagome. She tagged Sango.
“No tagbacks!” She shouted right before she tagged her. Sango didn't hesitate. She darted to the right and smacked Kouga.
“Ow!”
“Sorry!”
“It's ok.” He rubbed his shoulder and ran back towards Sango, but she pleaded the no-tag-backs law. He ran in Kagome's direction but got an idea. Suddenly, when she was in reach, he grabbed her hand and swung her around. Next, he kneeled at her feet. She looked very confused.
“Kagome…I've been meaning to ask you this for a long time now. I think it was ever since preschool. Maybe even before. Anyway, that's not important. What I'm trying to say is…Kagome…Will you marry me?” He blurted.
She gasped and blushed. Before she knew what was happening a dried up worm ring was on her left ring finger.
“Isn't this a little soon? I think we should wait until at least next year…”
“I'll wait all the way until fourth grade for you, darling.”
“Really…?”
“Of course!”
“Then, uh…”
“Hey Wolfboy! Get away from my Kagome!” Inuyasha appeared out of nowhere. Kouga looked up only to find a plastic spork pointed at his nose. “Face the wrath of my tesusaiga!” He shouted.
“Oh yeah?”
“Yeah!”
Kouga snatched the spork from Inuyasha's hand and threw it across the playground. He stood with a smirk.
“Let's fight fairly. I challenge you to a game of dodgeball! Whoever wins gets to marry Kagome!”
“I don't wanna marry her!” Inuyasha shouted.
Kaede looked up from her book, sighed, and started to read again.
“Hey!” Kagome frowned.
“What? Girls have cooties ya know.” He said, stating the obvious.
“We do not!” Sango shouted.
“Do too!” Inu shouted back.
“Actually Inuyasha, cooties are not real.” Miroku whispered.
Inuyasha gasped.
“Lies! How could you say something like that!?”
“I dunno. Just telling ya.” Miroku put up his hands in defense.
Sesshomaru, Kagura, and Naraku walked over.
“What's goin' on over here guys?”
Sango jumped in.
“Kouga asked Kagome to marry him, Inuyasha says girls have cooties, and now they're gonna play dodgeball to find out who gets to marry her.”
“I don't wanna marry her!”
Sango frowned at Inuyasha.
“I see.” Naraku stroked his chin.
“But Inuyasha doesn't wanna marry her.” Kagura said.
“Yeah. He just doesn't want Kouga to marry her.” She leaned forward and whispered in Kagura's ear: “He has sharing issues.”
“No!” Kagura gasped.
“Yes.” Sango nodded.
Kagura held her head in astonishment.
“Hey Kouga, you want some help?” Sesshomaru asked.
Kouga glared at him.
“Since when are you nice to me?”
“Well, it's not that I want to be your friend or anything. I just want to see my brother and his pathetic sidekick lose.”
“Gee…” Kouga started. “Sure. You can help me. I think we'd get along pretty well, Sesshomaru.”
He walked over and shook his hand.
Kagura came out of her stupor.
“In that case, I'm with you too.” She ran over to Sesshomaru.
All eyes turned to Naraku.
“What?” He asked. “Do you honestly think I'd help either of you pathetic lovesick fools?”
“Who's lovesick?!” Inuyasha shouted.
“You are!” Everyone shouted back.
He shut up.
“All right already!” Kouga said. “ So it's me, Sesshomaru, and Kagura against you and Miroku.”
“That's not fair!” Inuyasha shouted.
“Yeah! Whoever said I was gonna be on his team?!” Miroku asked.
Inuyasha glared at Miroku.
“Thanks.” He said sarcastically.
“Your welcome.”
“Fine. So it's all of us against you!” Kouga supposed.
“What?! I'm on Inuyasha's team!” Miroku shouted.
“Would you make up your mind already?!” Sesshomaru said.
“I just did.” He stated matter-of-factly.
Inuyasha slapped his hand to his face.
“So,” Kouga began once again, “it's me, Sesshomaru, and Kagura against you and Miroku.”
“Yeah I guess so.”
“Wait a sec, where are Ginta and Hakkaku?” Kouga asked.
Dramatic music plays and the two boys are seen skipping and picking wildflowers by the swings.
“…ok…” Said a shocked and utterly disturbed Kouga.
“I guess that means they're not playing?” Inuyasha asked.
“Guess so.” Kouga sighed. “Oh well, I don't need their help anyway!”
“Enough of this nonsense! Let the games commence!” Sesshomaru held up a ball.
“Wait, that's not fair!” Inuyasha whined. “He can't do that! He's already on your side!”
“Fine.” Kouga took the ball from Sesshomaru and walked over to Naraku. “Here. You do it.”
“I thought I told you I wasn't going to interfere.”
“Gimme that!” Kagome grabbed the ball and held it up like Sesshomaru. “Let the games commerce!”
“Commence.”
“Whatever.” She prepared to throw the ball in the air. It was almost out of her hand…when…
“Class, recess is over.” Miss Kaede walked over and took the ball from Kagome and set it on the ground. “Everyone line up against the fence.”
“But Miss Kaede!” Sango ran over to the teacher. “Kagome's future depends on this game!”
“I'm sorry honey, it'll have to wait until tomorrow.”
The class sighed and trudged over to the fence.
“I'll get you tomorrow, dog-turd. Just wait.” Kouga whispered.
“In your dreams, Wolfboy!” He whispered back.
Sango lead Kagome over to the fence.
“It's all right, Kagome. Tomorrow is only a day away.”
“But that's like a zillion episodes of Blue's Clues!”
She patted her back reassuringly.
“I know, I know...”
