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

AN: Well it seems like most of you are happy with Sango’s Family-In-A-Box. Could anyone tell that was one of my ideas I thought up five minutes before I wrote it? Lol.

Still no winners by the way.

Belle Ange- Thank you!

Kagome123- Thank you, as usual.


Disclaimer- I do not own Inuyasha and I do not own Snow White.

Kagome

I blinked, somewhat confused. Did Sango just call that tiny man father? And did he answer back with daughter?

Sango fell to her knees before the table, her eyes shiny with tears. "Father." she whispered again, reaching out and gentling rubbing a single finger down his face.

The little man placed one of his tiny hands on the skin. "Sango." he answered back, to overcome to speak anything else at the moment.

I mentally sighed, more surprised at how not surprised I was to find Sango’s father and what appeared to be her village shrunk down to about the size of my finger on my dining table. At this point, I don’t think I would be very shocked if Inuyasha walked up and kissed Jakotsu on the mouth.

...alright, alright I wouldn’t be shocked, I would be freaking pissed.

"But, Father, I don’t understand, Naraku told me you and the others had been placed under his control." Sango finally said after a few moments of staring at the family she hadn’t seen in almost a year.

"Naraku lied." Her father said simply. "Or to be more accurate, Naraku had been lied to. The witch bitch told him she had us under a spell when she hadn’t at all. Our will is to strong to be broken."

Sango nodded, wincing slightly as the she remembered the exercises her father had put her through in order to strengthen her will and soul against enchantress demons.

But Kohaku who had only just started to practice them...

Sango swallowed, "But Kohaku wasn’t strong enough was he?" she asked numbly, already knowing the answer.

Her father shook his head mutely, "No. He resisted as long as he could but the witch finally conquered him and gave him to Naraku." he explained, his voice dark with anger as his fists clenched together.

Miroku rested his hand on her shoulder, squeezing slightly to show his support. She briefly covered it with her own after a small hesitation.

"But what happened to you?’ she asked, forcing her mind away from her little brother. "How could this witch turn you so small?"

Her father shrugged, "She needed a place to put us that could be hidden from Naraku. But Naraku has spies everywhere, there really wouldn’t have been such a place. So she drugged our food, shrunk us and put us into a box. She’s been trying everyday since then to bend us to her will before the battle, but she hasn’t succeeded. It is thanks to Lady Rin we are free." he said, bowing in Rin’s direction.

She nodded back, more focused on Sesshomaru then the conversation since he had already explained everything to her.

"Father, how can we change this? There must be a way to reverse the spell." Sango asked, already determined to change her family and friends back to normal.

Her people fell silent. "We aren’t exactly sure." her father said slowly, "We’re not even sure what she drugged us with." He admitted.

"Who was the witch that did this do you, my lord?" I asked, breaking into the conversation.

He sighed, "I can’t say she ever offered her name and we never bothered to ask."

"Calling her the witch bitch was more fun." someone called out and the others sniggered.

Sango’s father waited. "I’m nearly positive her name began with a U though. I remember that’s what her name sounded like when a servant or Naraku would call to her." he said firmly.

"Something like Urasue?" I asked.

The slayers thought for a moment before agreeing, Sango’s father nodding his head yes.

Kagura and I exchanged a glance. Freaking great.

"Urasue." Hiten repeated, testing the name on his tongue. "Didn’t Kanna mention her once?"

I nodded, "She was the one who brought her back from the dead. But I never had any idea she was a witch before that. When I was still a servant I remember she was one of the creepiest women I had ever seen."

Kagura shuddered, "She was the servant assigned to me. That woman touched me, ugh."

Hiten slid a hand around her waist and dipped down to whisper something against her ear. The demons smirked or looked annoyed as the mere humans looked at each other in confusion.

"Do I want to know what he said?" I asked quietly to Inuyasha.

He shook his head, slightly blushing. "Hell no."

A sudden thought hit me and nearly left me frozen with fear. If Urasue could bring Kanna back from the dead...

No, no. It wasn’t possible. There was no way in hell that could happen. Inuyasha had torn Kikyo nearly in half. Urasue wasn’t a doctor, no way could she fix that.

I turned my mind back from my rambling, already knowing this idea was probably going to give me nightmares tonight.

"Urasue is probably the witch that promised the soldiers no death if they fought for Naraku then." Bankotsu guessed.

"So she’s definitely someone that needs to go." Ayame mused. "Dibs!"

"Not if we get there first." Sango’s father snapped.

"Dad, what do you think you’re going to do if you’re less then six inches tall?" Sango asked angrily. "She could step on you and your sword wouldn’t even get through the sole of her boot!"

"We’re warriors, whether we’re three inches tall or three hundred. We can figure something out." he said stubbornly.

"There must be someway to reverse this." Rin said soothingly, trying to break out a fight between father and daughter before it could start. "Miroku, Sess, I’m sure both of you have large libraries. Do you think either of you might have some sort of book to give us a spell or a potion?" she asked.

Miroku shrugged, "If I did there’s no way to get it here in two days."

Sesshomaru thought for a moment before shaking his head. Even if he left himself this very second to fetch such a book he would be gone to long. And besides, he wouldn’t have Jaken to find him it since Jaken had probably already set out for the dwarf’s home.

Rin frowned, "I’ll send my mother and Mayu a message then. My mother might know something as a miko and Mayu has access to the castle’s library." she explained, getting up to write such a note, Sesshomaru following her faithfully.

I raised as well, assuming Sango’s family was hungry. Were the hell am I supposed to find dinnerware small enough for them?

Finally, I placed a small bowl in the center of a large plate and spooned in stew around the plate. Sango’s tribe could gather around the plate and just eat straight off it. Hopefully someone with a knife could cut up some really tiny chopsticks for them.

Sango had already started, after sending Miroku out for some small twigs, while explaining to her rapt family what had happened to her since they had seen her last.

"...and that’s how I ended up here with the other dwarfs." Sango finished explaining, handing out the tiny pieces of sticks to the mini Slayers.

When they gathered around the plate and started to eat,. Sango cleared her throat and grabbed Miroku’s hands under the table. "Father, there’s something else I want to tell you. I’ve agreed to marry Lord Miroku."

The sudden silence in the room was heavy, and the glare Sango’s father was sending to Miroku looked like he wanted to take that silence and wrap it around his neck.

"You’re marrying who?" Her father finally growled, "It can’t be that womanizing, spoiled rich lord who’s standing to close to you."

"Father!" Sango snapped, "Don’t be rude! Miroku’s never been like that...well mostly because the womanizing is definitely going to stop." she assured her father, sending a warning glare to Miroku.

Her father dropped the chopsticks with a small clatter, the other slayers getting up to follow him as they stretched up to their full 5-6inches of height and glared at Miroku.

"Sango, do you expect me to believe this lech is good enough for you?" her father demanded.

"Of course I’m not." Miroku interrupted before Sango could start to defend him. "I would never be what Sango deserves, no matter what I did or what I possess. She should have a man better then me. But one of my faults is I’m to selfish to let her go." Miroku said simply.

The crowd of slayers were silent again, studying Miroku closely.

"HAH!" one of them laughed, "That’s the biggest bunch of bullshit I’ve ever heard!"

"Pretty speech my lord." Sango’s father sneered, "But we’re not convinced yet."

"What would convince you?" Miroku asked, determined to win her family over.

Her father smiled evilly, "You’ll see." he told him. "Slayers! Outside now! Sango, the woman will sleep in your room tonight, the men in Lord Miroku’s rooms. We expect to see you in your respective rooms...alone." Her father ordered, before sliding down the leg of the table, his village following him, leaving Sango grinding her teeth together as they marched out the house.

"...not even here half an hour and he’s already terrorizing Miroku and ordering everyone around..." she mumbled as she stalked over to where Kouga had left his sake and took a long swallow. "I’m so sorry Miroku about my father...he’s really not that bad once he gets to know you." she tried to assure him.

Miroku smiled faintly, "Don’t worry about it Sango. If you excuse me, I’m going to help Kag clean up." he grabbed a few dirty plates and started walking towards the door. As soon as the door closed behind him, a large THUMP echoed through the house with breaking dishes thrown in.

Sango rushed for the door, wringing her hands together. Hiten sighed and dragged Kagura closer, "When this is all over, we need a vacation babe." he said tiredly.

Kouga

Kouga laid flat on his back somewhere in the forest, he didn’t know where the hell he was, miserable, in pain, and his throat feeling like it was on fire from all the sake his stomach had rejected. What the hell had he done that made the gods hate him so much?

‘What did you do? Hah! More like what did I do to get stuck as the conscience to some whiney, stupid pup of a wolf who wouldn’t know his own ass even if you tattooed his name onto it and waved it under his face!’

Kouga moaned, his angry demon’s voice making his headache even worse. Damn sobriety, his demon had come back.

‘Damn lucky for you I’ve come back. Look at what happened when I was gone, you got your ass beat by some loser in front of Ayame! Are you trying to make my job hard or what?’

Kouga closed his eyes and carefully breathed, his stomach rumbling violently again.

‘Nu huh, don’t even try to get out of throwing up. How else are you supposed to get sober? Come on you big baby suck it up!"

Kouga ignored his demon, still breathing in and out slowly.

‘Inuyasha’s face, Kaede’s butt, sweet, tender love scenes-‘Mini Kouga started to list off things that usually made Kouga want to puke, ‘Homo kissing Ayame-‘

Kouga roared over and emptied his stomach, hoping this would finally get rid of all the sake he had consumed.

‘I doubt it, better get ready to do it again!’ his demon said cheerfully.

Kouga groaned, wondering what Ayame was doing. Was she with Homo? Was she talking or laughing with him? Was she...touching him? Was he touching her again?

Was she even thinking about Kouga while he wanted her so desperately? Did she still want him?

Ayame

Ayame stalked through the forest, easily finding her way back home after making her choice.

She wanted the entire male race DEAD!

She growled, so mad at Kouga and Hojo she would have happily killed them both if they were there.

Stupid Kouga for making her love him. Stupid Hojo for not being Kouga.

Well screw men. Once this damn war with Kikyo and Naraku was over, she was going to go home and become a nun. ‘The Nun Queen’ sounded very catchy, and she would never have to deal with men romantically again.

But first... she was going to throw a little party.

She slammed the door open to the cottage, "Girls! She screamed.

Kagome, Rin, Sango and Kagura immediately rushed out, "Ayame, what’s wrong?" Kagome asked worriedly.

"We’re going out." Ayame announced. "And we’re going to have the biggest man bashing party in the history of Japan!"

The girls looked nervously at each other, "Uh, Ayame. I’m not sure tonight is the best-"

"No arguments! Grab some food we can pig out over and get to the hot springs NOW!" she ordered, and Kagome went running for the kitchen.

Ayame waited impatiently for Kagome to reappear, her hands overfilling with jars and containers.

Inuyasha wandered out from behind her, looking confused, "Oi, what’s going on here-"

"SHUT UP AND JUMP OFF A CLIFF!" Ayame roared, pushing the girls out the door.

"Huh?" Inuyasha asked as the door slammed behind them. He sniffed the air and shrugged, "Eh must be that time of the month." he said dismissivly, "Did Kag leave any- Hey!"

"I HEARD THAT YOU BLOODY JERK!" Ayame screamed and left Inuyasha hanging from his feet from the ceiling by her vines.

Soten

Soten watched as the women of the house left, Ayame pulling them along. Dispassionately she wrote out another letter, Kagome’s dinner sitting like lead in her stomach.

She handed the letter off to Koryu, who looked at her sadly before flying off.

Soten clutched the writing utensil tightly. This had to be the right thing to do. It had to be.

At the hot springs...

Ayame stuffed a manju into her mouth, chewing violently as if she wished it was Kouga she could treat as violently while she stared at Rin, waiting for her contribution to the man bashing party.

"Well, um, Sesshomaru...you see...ah...crap....um, Sesshomaru, he’s kinda...no, no he’s not. ...oh, he has better hair then me!" Rin finally finished, glad that was over with.

"That bastard." Kagura said dryly, gracefully sipping from the small bowl of oshiruko Kagome had poured for her. Rin was amazed she was able to drink such a hot sweet soup in a hot spring.

"You think of something better to say about Hiten!" Rin snapped back, knowing exactly how happy Kagura was with Hiten. Seriously, her room was right next to theirs, would it be so hard to keep things down?

Kagura frowned,"Of course I can think of something to say about Hiten." she said defensively.

"Well? We’re waiting." Rin prodded.

"...sometimes he can be a huge bastard and make me wait." she finally said.

"Like for a date?" Kagome asked naively.

Kagura rolled her eyes, "In bed Kagome." she said, sounding amused.

Kagome blushed slightly and slid further down into the water.

Ayame scowled down at the water, "Whenever I got even close to having sex with Kouga the freaking jerk would get scared and run off." she said darkly.

Kagura’s eyes widen in surprise, "He turned down sex?" she asked, shocked.

Sango frowned in thought, "Maybe he’s been rejecting you because you have the wrong equipment?" she suggested.

Ayame perked up, "Do you really think he’s gay?"

"Wouldn’t he have gone after Jakotsu then?" Kagome asked, bursting Ayame’s bubble.

"You’re right. It’s probably me." she said glumly, stuffing another flat cake into her mouth.

"No Ayame, he’s the idiot, not you. Hojo seems to like you a lot." Rin offered. "It’s Kouga’s own loss."

"Yeah, Hojo seems to be really great to." Kagome decided, trying to make up for her earlier mistake. "He looks like the perfect man.""Perfect man, HAH! More like perfectly dead when I get my hands on him." Ayame snarled, "Stupid fucking Kouga, just what the hell is his problem?" Kagome blinked, confused on whether they were still talking about Hojo or not."He's a lousy, no good, yellow bellied JERK, that's his problem." Ayame continued, "He's a freaking waste of air. What the hell do I see in that bastard? Seriously, why the hell am I so crazy about him?"

"Because he’s a jerk?" Kagome guessed.

"Damn RIGHT he’s a fucking jerk!" Ayame yelled, repeating herself.

Kagura sighed, "So jump Hojo. No, I mean as in have sex with him Aya, not literally jump him. ...though that might do the trick..."

Ayame tilled her head to the side, considering it, "Would that make Kouga jealous?" she asked

Kagura rolled her eyes, "Forget Kouga honey, he’s not worth your time. Seduce Hojo, and maybe it’ll get Kouga out of your system." she explained.

Ayame’s brows furrowed, "But would Hojo want to have sex with me?"

"He’s a man." Kagura replied as if that explained everything. "When they aren’t thinking about food, they’re thinking about sex."

"And Hojo is easy on the eyes." Rin commented.

"Yeah, that little ponytail he has is so cute."

"Only because Miroku has one just like it Sango."

Ayame pursed her lips. "Maybe jumping Hojo is just what I need..."

"YOU’RE FUCKING INSANE IF YOU THINK I’M GOING TO LET YOU JUMP HOMO, WOMAN!" Kouga roared as he emerged out of the brush.

The women’s gasps of shock and outrage went unheard over Ayame’s yell of rage as she stood up from the springs and faced Kouga head on, unaware of the water sliding down her body.

"You have NO right to tell me who I can jump!" Ayame yelled, poking her finger into his chest.

He snorted, "Fuck yes I do."

"Do not!"

"Do to!"

"Do not!"

"Do to!"

Kagura raised a brow, "Are they freaking serious?" she murmured to Sango as Kouga and Ayame continued to argue like five year olds.

Rin frowned, "Do you think we should step in?" she asked, worriedly.

"Sure, if you want Lord Sesshomaru to be forced to claw Kouga’s eyes out from seeing your naked chest." she said dryly. "Shut up, it looks like they’re almost done."

"You are so infuriating!" Ayame yelled, planting her fists on her hips.

"You are so not sleeping with Homo!" Kouga shot back.

"Says who?"

"Says me!"

"You freaking jerk, you gave up that right days ago!"

"Did not!"

"Did freaking to jerk!"

"I am NOT a jerk."

"Yes you are!"

"Am not!"

"If you weren’t a jerk you wouldn’t have made me WAIT for three years. If you weren’t a jerk you wouldn’t have acted like I was the plague. If you weren’t a jerk you wouldn’t have made me fall in love with you and then mock me for it!" Ayame yelled, her eyes going glassy. "But you did, so you’re a fucking JERK!"

"You tell him Ayame!" Rin cheered.

"So don’t you dare stand there and tell me I have no right to give that love to someone else." Ayame finished, swallowing hard.

The entire forest seemed to stand still in silence while Kouga stared at Ayame, his fists clenching and unclenching at his sides with an unreadable expression on his face.

"I can’t." he finally said, "Kami help me Ayame, but I can’t. I can’t...I can’t let you go without a fight." he said, his voice ragged.

"Well you have to." Ayame told him, her voice hard.

He shook his head, "I can’t...I won’t." he told her, as he reached for her.

Ayame jerked back but he was to quick for her. He cupped his hands around her face and pulled her in for a long, drugging kiss, trying to tell her through his actions what he hadn’t been able to through his words.

She halfheartedly tried to pull at his chest while a few leaves swirled up to weakly slash at his arms and shoulders. He easily ignored them, using every bit of skill and focus he had to draw Ayame under his spell.

Only when he had her trembling in his arms did he break the kiss to gently gather her up in his arms.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing-" Rin started to say before Kouga viscously snarled at her and ran away with Ayame in a whirlwind.

Rin and Kagome instantly sprang up, reaching for their clothes so they could run after them, but Kagura and Sango only pulled them back down into the springs.

"Forget it guys. They have to work this out themselves." Kagura told them, obviously disgusted she couldn’t let them charge after Ayame.

Sango shrugged as well. "It’s a demon thing." she told them. "They can be weird."

Kagura shot her a glare. "Thanks Sango. " she said sarcastically. "Well since the man bashing party is over, why don’t you start off telling us why you love Miroku." Kagura asked sweetly, enjoying the pink that infused Sango’s cheeks. "Or you can just tell us what he’s like in bed..."

Quickly, Sango started to explain.

Ayame and Kouga

"Alright big guy, it’s all on you now. This is your chance. This is your moment. This is your now. DON’T FUCKING SCREW IT UP!" Mini Kouga roared in Kouga’s head as he raced through the forest, Ayame cradled tenderly in his arms.

Kouga decided not to get mad, knowing his demon had every right to be worried. Hell, his stomach was all twist up in knots, his skin was cold in fear and he felt like he might throw up, even though he was positive he had emptied the contents of his stomach hours ago.

Oh Kami, what if he couldn’t convince her to give him a second chance? What if she was still determined to leave him? Was he to late? Had she given up on him?

He almost wanted to run through the forest with her in his arms forever, but all the same he slowly stopped and gently placed Ayame down on a fallen log, kneeling on the ground next to her legs so he could grip her hands tightly. Maybe she would be more sympatric to him if he placed himself at her feet.

Ayame stared at their joined hands for a moment, before braving looking up and meeting his gaze with hers. "What’s this about Kouga." she asked quietly, looking weary.

"Go get her Kouga." His demon encouraged as Kouga took a deep breath, trying to prepare himself for what he was about to say.

"Ayame." he started to say and stopped cold, panic quickly overtaking him. Fucking hell, he sucked at the flowery symbolism and pretty words Miroku seemed so good at. What the hell was he supposed to say without sounding like the jerk she labeled him?

"Ayame." he tried again. "I’m never going to be able to express how sorry I am for the way I treated you in the beginning of our relationship." he said, trying to keep things simple. "You have absolutely no reason to forgive me for all the things I’ve said, or all the things I’ve done. If I were you I would have sent me packing a long time ago."

"I probably should have." She said quietly, not giving him an inch.

He glanced down at their hands, trying to think of the right words to say, trying to think up some magic, powerful sentence that would make all her pain go away.

But there was no such sentence was there?

"I’m never going to be able to tell you how sorry I am in words." he said, trying to follow his train of thought. "There are no words that would make you instantly forgive me. And you shouldn’t." he added quickly, noticing her narrowed eyes, "Hell, you should make me suffer for the hell I put you through for the rest of my life. I don’t deserve any pity or forgiveness from you. So instead..." he took another deep breath, getting ready to take the plunge, "Instead let me show you through my actions. Let me be there for you every single day of your life. Let me comfort you, provide for you, pleasure you, mate you, marry you. Let me make you laugh, smile, scream in joy. Let me love you Ayame." he asked, bringing her hands up to brush his lips over her knuckles. "Please, I promise you, I will make up every second of your suffering if you would allow it."

Ayame looked at him, trembling slightly, "I don’t know Kouga, I can be very demanding."

Kouga allowed a small sliver of hope enter his heart, "Trust me babe, it’s nothing I can’t handle."

"Oh no?" she mused, "What if I wanted you to wait on me hand and foot."

"I’ll wait on you hand, foot and tail." he shot back.

"What if I wanted you to kill a great beast?" she asked, starting to lean a little closer.

"Bring ‘em on."

"What if I wanted your all your riches and treasure?"

"Take them. You’re all the treasure I need."

"And I wanted you by my side for the rest of my life? If I wanted you in my life, in my bed, in my world? What would you say to that?" she asked.

He smiled slightly, "Then I say you’re stuck with me forever babe."

She chucked while she leaned forward and pressed her lips to his. "Then you better get ready Lover boy. Because you’ve got a lot of suffering to make up for."

His lips curved against her, "Looking forward to it love."

Meanwhile...

Inuyasha wiggled, trying to reach up to cut himself down and failing once again.

He growled, the blood rushing to his face.

"CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE FUCKING CUT ME DOWN?" he roared.

His brother shook his head as he leaned against the doorway and enjoyed the sight. He allowed himself to sigh.

"Pathetic."





END OF DAY 2
