            Miroku and Shippo exchanged looks.

            “What do you think’s wrong with him?” Shippo whispered.

            Miroku frowned. “I’m not sure. Perhaps someone put a spell on him.”

            “No way! Sesshomaru’s too powerful to succumb to a spell.”

            “But it’s the only explanation that makes sense. He’s been acting out of sorts lately. Doing things out of character and disappearing at random times. He’s been staring out into space and dong things that Sesshomaru just wouldn’t do if he weren’t under a spell. Or perhaps possessed. Or it could be mind control.”

            Shippo nodded grimly. “Well what are we going to do about it?”

            “I think the only way is to confront him about his behavior. Attempting to exercise him should only be a last resort.”

            Shippo nodded.

            The two of them stared at their friend, who was standing casually next to the entrance of the school.

            Suddenly, Sesshomaru opened the door, and out walked a girl.

            They watched as she smiled at their friend before walking away. They also watched as Sesshomaru stared after her, before he walked towards her, quickly catching up.

            Miroku and Shippo exchanged looks.

            “Kagome’s a miko,” Shippo offered. “She could have, possibly, maybe placed a spell on him.”

            Miroku snorted. “Kagome doesn’t have it in her.”

            “Then…” Shippo trailed off.

            “I’m afraid so,” Miroku said, nodding his head gravely.

            “Sesshomaru’s finally experiencing his first crush. I never thought I’d see the day!” Shippo cried, wailing dramatically.

            “Our little Sesshomaru is finally growing up!” they said simultaneously.
