Chapter-03 out on the town

It had been three days since the incident. Inuyasha made a full recovery and way released the next day, so for the other two days, Kagome was informing him on every thing he would need to know . He still could use some more work. Kagome wanted to take Inuyasha out on the town, but realized that too much attention would be drawn to him if he were to wear his usual ensemble, so Kagome bought him some modern clothes for him to wear. Needless to say, he refused them at first, but he began to grow accustom the them. He liked shoes the most, he enjoyed the spring to their step, and how it hurt lest then walking barefoot. He had to wear a hat to cover his ears.

“Come on Inuyasha, this way!” Kagome said to Inuyasha, whose attention is at an arcade

“Kagome, what is that?” He points towards the arcade

“Oh that’s an arcade, people play video games and such there... actually we have enough time, you want to got check it out?” Inuyasha nods. Kagome walk closer to the arcade they notice a crowd around a certain game, and music can be heard, a kind of music the hanyou has never heard before in his life. Suddenly the music seems to stop and some people start to cheer.

“Oh, I know what it is now.” Inuyasha looks at Kagome with a confused look upon his face “ Its a game called dance dance revolution. I’ve tried it before its fun but hard. See you have to step on arrows on a pad at the same time they hit a certain point in the screen.” Kagome starts moving her legs in a pattern that resembles the pad

The crowd opens up a bit to show a worn out and beaten man leave.

“Wow, Its Hasegawa Takashi, he’s the third best in Tokyo!” Inuyasha’s eyebrow raises

“You say he’s the third best?”

“Yes, are you going to try and beat him?” Inuyasha nods and walks toward the game

“Is there no one here who can beat me? I guess I am still the reining champ” The proud man says

“Your not so tough, I bet I could do better than you!” Inuyasha says, and everyone looks at him, noticing his silvery white hair.

“ You can’t beat Takashi, he only lost twice, and that the only reason he is the third best!”
“Shut up Norio, lets see what this guy can do”

Inuyasha steps onto the pad, and Takashi tells him the basics, and he stresses to not leave your feet in the center. after that, Takashi is feeling pretty proud of him self, and they choose the first song

“Alright, we shall play Tsugaru. I will play on heavy, how about you?”

“I’ll do likewise. If you can do anything, I can do it better”

They begin the song, and to everyone's amazement Inuyasha is doing an extraordinary job, keeping up with the famed champ. Inuyasha didn’t see what was so hard about the game, except at one part where he continually missed the steps. When the song ended Takashi looked at amazement to see that His score matched the inu yokai’s.

“You did too well for a first time, I might give you another chance. This time let us do... Healing vision angelic mix.” Inuyasha nods, not knowing what he is talking about but still he never backs down from a challenge. one the song starts Inuyasha can see the arrows moving slow

‘This is going to be easy if they go this slow’ He thinks to himself... then the first arrow passes and it is now a battle to see who can move his legs faster. The crowd watches in in awe as the two play on. Kagome can’t believe her eyes.

‘Inuyasha good at a video game? I know he has good reflexes and balance, so it is to be expected that he would be ok at it, but I never thought he could match up with ‘Takashi the Great’. She though as the song ended

“ I must credit you, silver haired one, you aren’t even tired. but this last one surely will end your beginners luck, Max unlimited” The whole slew of people gasped, even Takashi had trouble with this one, he was getting desperate. Once the song had started, Inuyasha knew this was going to be difficult. Every one watched closely to their every other step, because they could catch every move.

“ I lost?” Takashi said with Inuyasha laughing at him. Every one in the crowd went silent.

“My hats of to you newbie, you beat me.” Kagome began to approach Inuyasha

“ I can’t believe you beat Hasegawa. Aren’t you tired?” Inuyasha is trying to hide that he is short on breath, and he is sweating just a little bit. once they are done, the crowd begins to disperse and just Takashi, Norio, Kagome, and Inuyasha are left by the DDR machine.

“ Follow me kid, I want to talk to you about something.” Inuyasha and Kagome begin to follow him.

“No the girl must stay” Kagome looked at him with annoyance

“Why do I have to stay, he can’t hide anything from me, so your better off not excluding me!”

“Oh yeah, what about this!” Takashi grabs the hat from Inuyasha's head, reveling his ears

“ So what about it, I already knew about those” Kagome says as if it were more common than grass to see his ears.

“What! you know” He says astounded

‘How did he know about Inuyasha?’ Kagome thinks to her self, also thinking that Inuyasha must be thinking the same

“All right fine you can come, but mention one word about this.” Inuyasha growls at him as if he were threatening Kagome.

All four got to a deserted alley, Inuyasha looking for any dangers. When they got to a spot, Takashi stopped an turned around to face Inuyasha and Kagome.

“ I know your little secret, hanyou.”

“How did you know that I was?”

“A hanyou, simple really, you had no concealing spell, I could smell you coming a mile away.”

“How could you smell him, your not a” Kagome gets cut off

“ Hanyou? Yes I am, and Norio. We just use concealing spells, though I can’t figure out why you couldn’t sense us” In front of their eyes Takashi and Norio dropped their spells and revealed their dog like ears, silver hair, fangs, and claws.

“ You see me and you are the same breed, now I wanted to ask you, have you heard of Roheito Institutes?”

“ Roh what?”

“I’ll take that as good, but unless you want to find out what they are, I suggest you keep a low profile. Another thing, why do you hang out with this human?” Kagome glares at him unblinkingly

“ She’s a Miko.” The two start laughing

“Unless you where born 500 years ago, mikos don’t exist.”

“What If I was?”

“Then you should be dead, or an old man, I mean your not a yokai, well at least a full yokai.”

“ Inuyasha, lets get going, these men are clearly lacking in knowledge”

“ You insult me, human?” He says getting annoyed

Inuyasha and Kagome start walking away

“Remember, a low profile!”

Inuyasha is about to reach the corner, when Kagome shoves his hat back on him, this is followed by a string of profanities

“He said low profile!” Inuyasha growls at Kagome, and it looks like she is about to sit him, but she remembers that they are in public. Kagome looks at her watch

“Oh my god! we are going to be late!”

“Late for what?” Inuyasha barks at her

“Oh well, we can’t make it in time. Lets do something else. What do you want to do?”

“Eat, I’m hungry woman” Kagome just glares at him, and pushes him back into the alley

“ SIT!” THUD

“Stop doing that, bitch!”

“SIT” THUD “ Concrete is different from grass huh Inuyasha?”

“ Kagome, stop that!” He stands up, and it looks like his nose is bleeding abit

“ Ah! sorry Inuyasha, I thought that wouldn’t happen.”

“Yeah, well it did!”

“Lets just go home and enjoy the rest of the day there”
“Fine by me!”

As they try can hide Inuyasha bloody nose, Kagome notices an article in the news paper that reads, “ Boy heals miraculously after being shot in the stomach”

“ Oh crap”

“What is it Kagome?” She points to the paper and Inuyasha begins to read it slowly, but he gets to heals before Kagome says

“ So much for a low profile, we need to get home soon. Maybe I should call my mom, and have her pick us up?”

“I don’t care”

Kagome walks to the nearest pay phone and calls her mom and told here where to pick them up. Afterwards, Kagome goes to check on how Inuyasha's nose was doing, it stopped bleeding, that was good, but he had blood all over his nose.

A while later Mrs. Higurashi showed up and picked both of them up, Inuyasha was concerned about this thing that he was getting in.

“What is this beast?”

“ It’s a car, Inuyasha, you’ll be seeing them everywhere. Oh and prepare yourself.”

“For what?” The car starts to drive and Inuyasha freaks out

“That”

End chapter 3

Authors note: I wanted to make this longer but oh well

One thing, If you haven’t played DDR, heavy is the hardest you can go making it a 6 step average. a step is difficulty, four is average, but its a whole new league for each step. Tsugaru is about 7 or 8, Healing Vision is about 8 or 9, when Max unlimited is a solid 10. that could kill a man!
