The Old Switcheroo

Chapter 5: Trying to Fix a Mess

<><><><>

'Sesshoumaru what have you done?!' The real Inuyasha thought in despair.

Silence fell over them again, Kagome shifting uncomfortably. She bit her bottom lip, and spared a glance at Sesshoumaru who seemed to be trying to stare a hole through the trunk of a tree. "Gomen nasai Sesshoumaru..." She said nervously, "But could you leave?"

"Leave?" He said turning to look at her. Ah yes, he was in his brother's body. Why was it so hard to remember that? "Of course." The taiyoukai offered her a smile and leapt away.

'Damn that Sesshoumaru.' The real Inuyasha thought, 'I'll find him and force him to make amends with Kagome! What the hell did he do to make her think I wanted Kikyou?'

Don't you?

'Shutup wench. Go bug Sesshoumaru.'

Sesshou-chan doesn't want bugged right now. I thought I'd come taunt you... but seeing what a mess your in I can't help but feel responsible.

'Damn right! If I lose Kagome because of this... I'll hack you up into little peices and make fishfood out of you! And I'll do it slowly just so you can suffer! I can't lose her like Kikyou... I can't.'

Tsk. Tsk. Everyone trying to kill me ne? Losing someone you love is hard right Inuyasha, but there are others you know who've felt that pain. The demon slayer, the monk, Sesshou-chan. They all try to move on, can't you move on?

'Shut the hell up.'

As you wish my demon lord.

Well if he wasn't in a bad mood before he sure as hell was now. Darting from an overgrown thicket of foliage, Sesshoumaru came to a halt before Inuyasha who was currently being verbally abused by Sango. He couldn't help but smirk and observe for a few moments. "Inuyasha!" The hanyou turned slowly, his eyes full of cold hatred. Clearly it was hard for him not to kill Sango... "Go get Kagome!"

"I believe I won't." The hanyou said coolly recieving more heated glares from Sango.

"Yes you will bastard!"

"No, can't say I will."

"Go get her or... or..." Sesshoumaru held up his hand. "I'll stab myself right through the gut! And then make sure it doesn't heal properly!" Inuyasha narrowed his eyes.

Sango and Miroku looked at each other. What was going on? Shippou climbed up atop the monk's head, watching with interest. The kitsune spared a glance back at the others. Rin was tossing flowers at some lump on the ground. Oh... that wan't a lump... that was a fainted toad. "What's going on?" Shippou asked Miroku quietly. The houshi shrugged.

"We can only guess Shippou."

"You are incapable of such." Inuyasha said blandly. Sesshoumaru growled.

"Then I'll... rip up this... fluffy boa thing!"

"You won't touch it." The hanyou said, a slight edge to his cool voice.

"I won't eh?" the demon lord'd hand took on a green glow. "I'll just use this acid stuff I learned how to use."

With a very isy glare Inuyasha took off, disappearing into the trees. After watching a few moments in satisfaction of winning, Sesshoumaru turned to look at Miroku, Sango, and Shippou who were gaping at him. "What!? Is there some giant bug on me!?"

"N- no." Sango managed to squeak. What was going on? It was like Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha switched bodies or something, but that wasn't possible. Was it?

Inuyasha landed silently in front of Kagome, the salty scent of her tears making his nose twitch. He stared at her, folding his arms into the sleeves of his haori as he waited for her to notice him there. After a few minutes of more tears he growled lightly. The raven-haired miko's head snapped, chocolate hues softened at seeing the hanyou for a moment before she turned away. "Leave." She said haughtily. "I don't want to see you baka." Inuyasha almost heeded his request until he remembered his boa was being held hostage.

'Let's see... talk like the half breed, act like the half breed. Rawr give me food. No, indeed, that will not work...'

"Keh... come on."

"No! Go run off with Kikyou, that's what you want isn't it?" Kagome hissed. Inuyasha stood in silence for a moment. Were all human females like this? Let's see Kikyou... that dead wench. Yes... he was pretty sure he knew her.

"If I indeed wished to 'run off with Kikyou' I would have done so by now. She can sense the shards as you can, so if I wished to be with her I would."

Kagome turned around to look at him, her tears dried. "You mean, you want to stay with me?"

The hanyou shifted uncomfortably, the ears atop his head twitching involuntarily. "Yes." He finally managed to say. Kagome smiled, jumping at him and embracing him tightly as her head rested on his chest, eyes squeezed shut. Inuyasha stood frozen, tensed up. Catching his own scent his hues darted to a tree where Sesshoumaru perched.

"Hug her back!" The dmeon lord hissed just loud enough for Inuyasha to hear. The hanyou was about to protest when Sesshoumaru held up his boa to show he still held it hostage. With a low growl he placed his arms around the miko.

Kagome pulled back suddenly, her face red. "Sorry... I don't know what came over me."

"Keh..." Inuyasha turned and began walking. "Let's go."

"Hai!"

She sighed falling backwards. It was dark, everything was so dark. Not even an ounce of light could penetrate this darkness. "To think it was my choice to be here..." She murmured. "But I must fulfill my promise... I waited too long to start, so now my task is only harder to complete."

Sesshou-chan... Inuyasha... you two had better get your acts together...

End chapter! I hope you all liked it and very sorry for the long delay in updation! Review or die! Well you won't die, but I would be very happy if you reviewed!

As for the fluffy... maybe it holds sentimental value or soemthing for Sesshoumaru. This is for you to decide!
