Bubblegum:

Chew chew chew.

Pause.

Pop.

Chew chew chew.

Sesshoumaru's delicately pointed ears twitched. The sound. How it grated on his very soul, his very being, his very nerves! It was that Miko's fault - the one with the purest white spiritual aura but who still dressed indecently in her white smock and her green sad excuse for a kimono. It mattered not that she had very long and shapely legs, for a human. She was still at fault for having his hearing impaired.

"Rin," his deep voice intoned, finally deciding that he was demon enough to handle this situation.

Like a well trained puppy, the girl turned her dark brown locks and faced Sesshoumaru's profile with an expectant smile upon her cherubic face. "Yes, Lord Sesshoumaru?" She popped another bubble after answering her high and mighty lord.

Sesshoumaru fought hard to keep from flinching. It was a tough battle, but of course he won in the end. "You will cease your chewing immediately," The very great and mighty Lord Sesshoumaru commanded to his young human ward.

Once more, like a well trained human that she was, she followed her orders and stopped her chewing. Though, what was she supposed to do with the thick wad of sugar in her mouth now? She really wanted to swallow it, because it tasted so good! But Kagome had told her not to. Rin spat the pink wad into her hand. She stared at it. She looked up at Master Jaken who was waving his staff frantically at her to keep up.

"Coming, Master Jaken!" Rin announced cheerfully before chasing after the little toad in glee. She tagged the little guy in the back of his bald head and he fell over from the force.

"Rin...." Jaken managed to growl out before Lord Sesshoumaru's threatening glare silenced him.

"Jaken," Sesshoumaru addressed. "You will stay here and watch over Rin," he advised the small and green one. He proceeded to walk away from his small band of motley characters.

Only a few moments later did he entrance upon his half brother and company. Already the whelp had dared to draw father's fang against his imperial being. Surprisingly, the others - all humans- did not remove themselves from their seated position. Did they not think that he, Sesshoumaru was not a threat? Sesshoumaru allowed himself a small snort. Ridiculous.

"Sesshoumaru! Bastard!" Inuyasha screeched out as he stood protectively before his group. "What are you doing here?!" The half demon demanded. His bare and clawed feet braced themselves in the hard floor of the earth, kicking up little dust devils as he moved.

Sesshoumaru brushed his glance over Inuyasha, barely gracing him with recognition before his eyes landed on the Miko. There she is. The cause of all his problems, well many of them at least. Not only could he see her delectable mouth move to moisten her piece of candy, but he could hear it as well. But there were others who were participating in his ire. His eyes shifted and he realized that it was everyone - Inuyasha, the monk, the demon slayer, and even the fox kit.

Sesshoumaru fought hard to regain his composure. He shifted his claws, cracking his well used knuckles and slung his body into a fighter's stance. "Come, Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru demanded. "And show your worth to this Sesshoumaru!"

He did not have to wait long. Inuyasha ran in with his demonic blade held precariously down at his side. "BASTARD!" Inuyasha yelled out his battle cry just as he lifted the blade to land a devastating blow on Sesshoumaru's beautiful form.

He missed. An acre of fallen trees lay in the wake of Inuyasha's powerful attack, but Sesshoumaru was upon Inuyasha the instant he lifted his sword. His clawed hand rested dangerously against Inuyasha's throat. "You are weak!" Sesshoumaru shook the half demon as he spoke. "You filthy human blood tarnishes our father's good honor!" Sesshoumaru took sick pleasure in the life of his dear half brother beneath his hand. He could no longer chew that annoying human candy, now that he was under his claw.

Sesshoumaru was going to rattle him some more when the half breed had the audacity to spit on his persons! He felt an added weight to his once perfectly balanced head of hair. Sesshoumaru threw Inuyasha against the nearest oak tree and threaded his tapered fingers through his long locks of silver. He was met with resistance.

"INUYASHA!" Kagome, the miko had finally moved from her seat and ran to the whelp's aid. "You didn't!" He could hear her screech.

Sesshoumaru brought his locks to the front of his face. Pink was now mixed in with silver. Sesshoumaru fought hard to force down a shudder of disgust. He clawed at it. It still would not come out. He was going to kill that filthy bastard! Sesshoumaru's beautiful golden eyes pulsed pink at the promise.

In a swift and no doubt well practiced movement, Sesshoumaru unsheathed Tokijin. He proceeded to stalk towards the now broken tree and Inuyasha's crumpled form. He could hear the miko whisper fervently into Inuyasha's ears - "I can't believe you spat in Lord Sesshoumaru's hair!" He could see her finally sense his approach and rose up to stand protectively before the unconscious Inuyasha. The demon slayer and monk followed closely after.

"Remove yourself," Sesshoumaru said. This was between the half breed and himself.

"No!" It was the female demon slayer. Sesshoumaru's knuckle crackled in warning.

"Wait!" This time it was the miko's voice. Sesshoumaru focused his heated gaze onto her heart shaped face. He could feel his growing ire with her raise by the second. "I'm... we're sorry about your hair! We can fix it!" Kagome supplied unsteadily with a hopefully convincing smile.

Kagome took her still being alive as a good sign. "Right! I have special remedies for this sort of thing!" Kagome was digging through her brain for all the rumors she remembered. Peanut butter, mayonnaise, ice, right? She was still alive. That must mean that he wants her to help!

Kagome shifted to get her knapsack and saw Sesshoumaru's claws flex once more. "I... uh... have to get the supplies to help. She licked her lips, for they have suddenly become very dry.

Sesshoumaru nodded.

"This Sesshoumaru will traverse the well with you, Miko."

Kagome was just about to nod when she realized what he had said. "Wait. What? No. No, you can't. No one can go through the well except Inuyasha and me!" She tried to reason with the Daiyoukai.

Sesshoumaru would not take no for an answer. He twirled his ruined lock between his fingers. "This Sesshoumaru will go with you or the whelp dies," he threatened darkly.

"Over our dead bodies!" Sango interjected.

"But what will happen if Sesshoumaru tries to go but does not cross through?" Miroku speculated.

Sesshoumaru shook his head. "I will cross over with the Miko," he announced.
