Inuyasha Series © Rumiko Takahashi

This is the first installment of the series. The timeline is during 3 years of Kagome missing (we are at this) and after (the 2nd installment) and after after (3rd...)

I know drabble means short (100 words), but oh well...

Rating from K to T at most. I'll also put warnings and rating by chapter.

This will eventually lead to Inucest (Sesshoumaru/Inuyasha). As for now...

1. Call

Rating: K

Warning: awkward

"Eh," Miroku scratched his chin, stalling to think more about his own input. He settled for rephrasing Inuyasha's story. "So his messenger told you if you need something, just call him then?"

"That's what I said." Inuyasha shot the monk a dry look.

"That's good for you, Inuyasha-sama!" Rin clapped her hands once and squealed.

Inuyasha looked at her uncertainly. Truth to be told his encounters with Sesshoumaru kept getting… weirder than the last. "Uh…" He gripped his Tessaiga, as if expecting Sesshoumaru to suddenly pop out of nowhere and demanded him to draw his sword. Nothing. "…Thanks?"

Sesshoumaru sat down, next to him, out of nowhere, inside Kaede's hut where they all huddled together for their mid-day gossips. "You call?"

Inuyasha looked at where Miroku should have been sitting. The damn monk already escaped way far ahead and kept running further from the hut, with Rin waving and giggling madly at the sight of her Lord from the monk's shoulder.

His eyes hesitantly turned back to his demon brother, who sat still and waited patiently, Inuyasha gulped.

Sesshoumaru hadn't just flown here from the battlefield in North… had he?
