Stupid Dog Demons

Kagome's point of view

Kagome was on her way back to the well from Kaede's village. She paused to admire the scenery that would, in 500 years be nothing but a concrete jungle. The emeralds and jades and many other greens of the surrounding forest captivated her attention.

If only they could make paints these colors.

Kagome sighed. Even though she loved being in her era, there was just something about being in the beauty of the ancient forest. The forest, normally this peaceful, felt like something more out of a dream than a reality. She was truly enjoying the quietness of the forest surrounding her. She looked over to the Goshinboku that withstood what seemed like all of time. That, and the well being the only reminders of what was once dubbed InuYasha's Forest. In her time the Higurashi Shrine was indeed a sight. It was nothing compared to this wonder.

The only thing that could ruin this dream is "WENCH!" *sigh* that.

Kagome's thoughts were interrupted yet again.

"Where are you going?"

"InuYasha, if I am heading towards the well, it should be obvious."

"I didn't say you could go home."

"I don't care if you said I can go or not. You are not my alpha, therefore you have no right to tell me what I can and can't do."

 Kagome figured putting it in pack terms may help InuYasha understand better. Too bad it didn't work.

"What do you mean, 'you're not my alpha!'" he mocked her in a terrible rendition of a girly voice.

Sighing, Kagome turned to InuYasha and said "InuYasha. We have been over this. I WILL NOT answer to you as my alpha. I am my own master and that is the end of the subject. You are not my boss. So get over it."

InuYasha started to growl.

"Sesshoumaru. Why are you here?"

"Much like your female, I don't answer to a half breed."

InuYasha, even angrier that his own hated brother saw her defiance, growled again, before his accusations started.

"I am NOT his female. I am MY OWN PERSON! I BELONG TO NO ONE!" Kagome yelled at Sesshoumaru.

"Silence wench. The place of women is to be seen not heard. Surely your pathetic race knows at least that."

Now Kagome was doing the growling. "Listen here, you oversized bull dog. I DO AS I PLEASE. No one has authority over me."

"You dare disrespect the Lord of the West?" Sesshoumaru seethed.

His eyes started tinted into a red hue.

InuYasha stepped in between the two angry figures.

"Stay out of this Kagome."

InuYasha drew his father's sword and pointed it at his older half brother.

"Surely you, Sesshoumaru, wouldn't stoop so low as to argue with a human," he snarled.

With InuYasha and Sesshoumaru easily distracted, Kagome slipped off to the well.

Stupid dog demons. They just enjoy pissing people off with their superiority trip. They get off on it!

She jumped into the well unnoticed. So she thought.

Sesshoumaru's Point of View

If InuYasha awakens my ward with his incessant yelling, I WILL gut him slowly. Sesshoumaru stood up and followed the sound of his wretched brother's annoying voice. When he walked up what he saw did indeed amuse him. InuYasha's wench was defying him in a most disrespectful manner.

Not that the wretch deserves respect.

He was barely paying attention to their conversation when InuYasha turned to him and dragged him in it. Stating the obvious, he resisted the urge to roll his eyes. It was unfitting of his station.

Then that woman starts in. Obviously InuYasha had angered her enough for her to be unconcerned with the being that could end her life before she could blink. She in turn, angered him with the blatant disrespect to his person.

InuYasha, once again, took a defensive position. While the whelp made the first move, Sesshoumaru noticed the defiant human take off running toward the well.

Stupid, pathetic human. Does she really belive that the old well can save her? Is she suicidal?

He watched as she jumped into the well and felt as she was surrounded by a strong magical aura. Sesshoumaru took his chance and jumped after her.

"BASTARD! STAY AWAY FROM THERE!" InuYasha screamed.

The lord never noticed.

InuYasha's point of view

InuYasha ran after him as he headed toward Kagome and the well.

"BASTARD! STAY AWAY FROM THERE!"

InuYasha tried to recapture his attention so Kagome could reach the safety of her era. He watched as Sesshoumaru jumped in after her. Expecting to see a very pissed off daiyoukai, InuYasha got in defense mode again. After a moment of silence, he walked to the well.

Damn! InuYasha jumped into the well after the two.

To his utter shock and surprise, the well wouldn't let him through.

DAMN DAMN DAMN!

InuYasha pounded his fists into the nearby trees and ground.

Sesshoumaru running loose in Kagome's time is NOT a good thing. I can't get through the well!

He did the only thing he could possibly do. Sit at the well and wait for some sign of his brother or his friend.
