Just so those of you who have read this somewhere else before I can say 100 without a shadow of a doubt that I am in no way plagiarizing this.

Ok here's the deal this little squiggly thingy means thoughts in their heads.

-----

A girl sat on the edge of a well, her doorway to her home. She wasn't exactly the happiest person in the world, as a matter of fact at that moment happiness wasn't even in her vocabulary. Her word of the day was anger.

"Baka, baka, baka! I can't help it if there are no jewel shards around! What does he expect me to do, stand on a cliff with a megaphone and yell…'Attention all demons with jewel shards… If its not too much trouble could you maybe, possibly, please come here so that we can kill you and take your shards!' Oh I'm sure they will be more then happy to comply. Stupid Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha came up the trail leading to the well in search of the girl that he couldn't help but piss off. It's just in my nature to be this way. She should know that. "I heard that!"

She glared at him "I don't care if you did! And if you come any closer to me, you are going to hear a lot more! Including your most favorite of all words!"

"You wouldn't dare!" He took a step towards her, fully intent on covering her mouth so that she couldn't say the word, and he would be able to explain to her that he didn't mean what he had said to her.

She closed her eyes, turned her head up to the sky, and folded her arms a crossed her chest. "Inuyasha one more step and you and the ground are going to be mated for all eternity!"

"Feh, fine." Well it doesn't look like she is going to listen to me, and I can't get anywhere near her. Oh well, she knows I'm sorry, I think. I wonder if she will give me my birthday present now? There's only one way to find out. "Um so can I have my birthday present now?"

Kagome looked at him eyes wide with shock. "What?!? Are you insane? Why should I give it to you now, especially after the way you have treated me?!?"

"Aww come on Kagome. I didn't mean it, you know that." He hung his head down, making a pouty face, hoping she would give in to him.

Kagome knew that look to well. He was only pouting so that he could get what he wanted, not because he was sorry or anything. Heaven forbid for him to apologize to her of all people. "So you didn't mean it huh? Well… if that's the case, here."

Before he could blink she threw a dirt clod at him, hitting him right in the forehead. "Waddya do that for?"

"That Inuyasha was your birthday present. Now go away and leave me alone before I give you a good…"

He squinted his eyes at her trying to gage if she was actually going to say it. "Don't you dare say it." He said while pointing his finger at her.

"Sssssiii…." As soon as he heard her begin the word he took off running back towards the village screaming all the way..

Kagome started laughing and jumped into the well. She felt the need to annoy someone, and who better then her little brother.

Kagome was all set to annoy her little brother, and as soon as she walked in the front door he gave her a bottle with a rock in it.

"What's this?"

"Well Sis, we went on a field trip yesterday to the space museum and I thought you might like this. It's a moon rock."

Kagome looked at the gray rock "What am I suppose to do with this?"

Sota looked down disappointed, and kicked his foot at an imaginary rock on the floor. "I just thought… I just thought you would like it."

Damn, damn, damn, why can't he be like other people's little brothers? Annoying, irritating, and just an all around nuisance. But no I have to have the sweet, innocent, nice, love everybody little brother. With a guilty sigh "Thanks Sota I love it."

Sota looked up at his sister, and grinned from ear to ear. "Your welcome Sis." He then turned on his heel and headed to his room.

"Stupid Sota. Why does he have to be so damn nice?"

Kagome deciding that there was no one here to annoy and take her frustrations out on headed back to the well. Maybe I can annoy that little village brat. The one that always plays pranks on Shippou.

She nodded to herself, deciding that that was just what she was going to do. Hopping into the well, with her forgotten moon rock still in her hand.

One crying village brat, and one smirking, satisfied teen later. Kagome decided that she needed to get over the mood she was in, because if she didn't, she knew that her and Inuyasha would spend the rest of the day fighting. So she decided to take a walk over to the pond by the village.

She found a nice shaded place under a tree, and sat down to relax, and try to rid herself of the belligerent, feisty feelings within herself.

Ahh, if she only knew that today was going to be a day of annoyance and irritability, she would have just stayed in bed.

"Stupid Inuyasha! It's his fault that I made that poor kid cry!" she yelled at the pond.

"Who are you speaking to?"

Kagome gave a startled eep! and looked around to find where the voice was coming from. Her eyes landed on the 'I'm better than anyone and anything demon lord.' Great just flippin great! Well at least she was on somewhat friendly terms with him.

Without thinking about the consequences of her words she spoke. "Well I just don't think that that's any of YOUR damn business!"

Ya know there are those moments in time when everything seems to slow down so much so that it seems as if the world has come to a complete stop, just so it could laugh at the idiocy of one who walks upon its lands. Well that is exactly what happened to Kagome. The world stopped to laugh at her and her new found position against a tree with her throat in an angry demon lords claw. It made things a little easier since he was only holding on to her just enough to hold her up with out actually choking her, too much.

"Wench, you will not speak to me as such."

Kagome knew she should have been afraid of him and her current situation. But considering the day she was having, and the mood she was in, she just didn't foresee herself dealing with the emotion of FEAR anytime soon.

Ok, now knowing that, her mouth decided to act before her brain could stop it "Jeez Sesshoumaru, couldn't you find a different way to render someone incapacitated for a change. I mean really, the whole grab them by the throat and slam them up against a tree, rock, wall, or whatever is getting really old."

Sesshoumaru was shocked to hear her words, although his face didn't show it. He glared at her and ignored the slight shock that he was going through due to her words."Your tongue is going to cost you your life."

"Oh for gods sake Sesshoumaru. Nobody can do anything around you without putting their life on the line. I'll bet that on the day you were born you had the midwife up against a wall with your hand around her throat, because she slapped your ass and made you cry."

Sesshoumaru just stood there looking at her, trying desperately to wrap his mind around her attitude towards him. He knew he should be angry with her for her words, but the fact that she wasn't fearing him as a proper ningen should he found himself to be more curious than anything.

Dropping the girl into a heap onto the ground "You don't worry about your life being removed by my hand?"

Kagome looked up at him with a glare, as she rubbed her throat. "Considering how many other times you have tried and failed to take my life, I would have to say that my chances of surviving your wrath are pretty good."

Sesshoumaru snorted at her. "So you think just because I haven't killed you yet, you think you will survive to see another sun rise?"

"I didn't say haven't , I said couldn't!" she snapped.

Sesshoumaru waved his hand in the air indicating that her words were of no importance. "It matters not. I could kill you now and be done with it."

"So why don't you?" Curiosity, hmm that's an emotion I haven't felt much today.

Sesshoumaru turned from her and looked at the pond. "I am rather interested in why you don't fear me. Once I have that knowledge, I will then rid the land of you worthless human life."

Anger, reared its ugly head once again. She stood up and went to stand directly in front of him. "I am not worthless, useless, weak, pathetic, or any of the hundreds of other adjectives that you and your baka brother feel so necessary to describe me!"

He looked at her with mild confusion on his face. "Ag it tive? I do know not know what that is."

Kagome couldn't help but laugh. For the first time ever she had seen a different emotion on the calm expressionless face that she was used to.

"You find something funny?"

She nodded at him. "Yea, you!"

Hmm "This position again, huh? Boy you're not one for trying something new are ya."

"You will not mock me wench." He curled his lips revealing his fangs.

"Ok, once again stop calling me names! Honestly what is wrong with you and your brother? Did you two not learn how to speak to someone without insulting them? Or was it a requirement to take insults 101 while growing up?"

He looked at the girl he was holding by the throat, deciding that it was time for her to die. "You know nothing of my youth, nor will you ever. And half-brother not brother, although it sickens me that we share any amount of the same blood. As for this insults 101 I know not of what you speak."

Kagome rolled her eyes at him.

He watched her facial expression "You dare to mock me again?"

"Who the hell is mocking? You make me hang here like a rag doll, so that I have to listen to you and your lordly lecture about what I know and don't know. When in reality I could care less."

He looked at her. This girl is either very brave or madly insane. I'm sure it's the latter. I find it very peculiar that she has no fear of me, and seems to think it normal to speak to me with such insolence. He gave her a light shake by the neck, and watched as something fell out of her pocket.

He looked down at the glass container with what looked to be a rock in it. Dropping the girl to the ground once again, he picked up the bottle.

"Ningen, why do you have a rock in this container?"

Kagome looked at it and wondered if she should tell him what it was. Sure he knew where she came from and all, but she always wondered if she ever gave him any information about the future, would he use it to his advantage and change his future?

"It's just a rock."

He looked down at the girl still sitting down on the ground. "You keep rocks in bottles?"

"Yea. So. Where I keep my rocks is, how do you put it ' Of no concern of yours.' She said mimicking his voice as best as she could.

He raised an eyebrow at her. "You will cease your mocking of this Sesshoumaru this instant. And you will explain why you have a rock in a bottle."

"Oooh so damn persistent! Is this how you treat everybody, or am I just special?"

"Neither. Now explain this rock or…"

Using her best Sesshoumaru voice she interrupted him "you will die"

He squinted his eyes at her. "Explain now."

"I keep it in a bottle so that it doesn't get dirty?"

From the look on his face that was definitely not the answer he was looking for.

"Oh fine! My brother gave it to me." Of course she already knew that the next question out of him was going to be. 'Why would your brother give you a rock in a bottle?' But before the question could leave his lips she answered it.

"Because he's weird ok."

Sesshoumaru glanced from her to the bottle in his hand. He held it up in front of his eyes to thoroughly examine it better. The rock was one like he had never seen before, and it had a weird looking texture to it. He squeezed the bottle, breaking the glass, and freed the rock. Holding the rock in his fingers, he rubbed the rock feeling the odd roughness of it.

Then he did the strangest thing she had ever seen, he sniffed it, then licked it. She cringed her nose at what he just did. "So.. do you always go around licking rocks?"

Aww yes, the infamous lordly scowl. Haven't seen that look in about, oh I would say 15 seconds.

Ignoring her question "This rock is not of this land."

Shock. She was sure that was the emotion clearly written all over her face. "You could tell that just by licking it?"

Keeping his scowl locked on her. "I can tell a lot about things based on what they smell or taste like. Spending as much time as you do with the half-breed, you should know these things."

"I have never seen him lick a rock in order to get any information about his surroundings and such." She snapped.

"That does not surprise me, being he isn't a pure breed. So. You. Will now explain the origins of this rock."

Kagome stood up and put her hands on her hips. "Well aren't we the demanding one. Are you this demanding in every aspect of you life or what?"

"When one does not do as I order them to do, yes."

"Wow, I bet the women just throw themselves at you and your demanding ways. Oh wait, they don't have to throw themselves at you. You just demand that they come and they do."

She looked at the face he was making and decided that she was about one breath away from crossing the preverbal line of too far. Throwing her hands up in the air with absolute disgust, she gave him one of his glares and informed him of where the rock came from.

Truly she couldn't figure out why it was so important, why she wouldn't tell him about it, or even more bizarre, was why he cared about a damn rock.

"You say this rock is from the moon? You will not lie to me."

Kagome turned red in the face as anger filled her form "What?!? Why would I lie about something so stupid as to where a dumb rock came from? I mean really, do you think I sat here waiting for you to show up so that I could feed you some bullshit about where a stinkin rock came from?"

"Miko, you will not speak to me in such a manner as this, or use such language." In all honesty he was quite amused with the miko. Her range of emotions and her snappy mouth were quite different than the majority of women he had come across in his life. That and she held absolutely no fear of him.

"I will keep this rock."

She went from rage back to shock, and back to rage in the blink of an eye. "You will not! My brother gave me that! He said: I got this for you Kagome. Not: I got this for you so you could let some haughty demon lord take it."

He raised his eyebrow at her, then in a calm authoritative lordly voice he informed her "These are my lands and I will take what I want, from who I want, when I want."

Kagome furrowed her eyebrows together, her mind spinning with the blood red rage that flowed through her. She didn't care that he wanted the rock, it was more about the principle of it. If he would have just asked for it she would have given him the damn thing, but to just take it like that, pissed her off. And she decided to tell him as much.

He saw it coming, and waited with a mildly amused expression on his face.

"You stuck up, overbearing, brainless, pretentious, ass. I don't give a damn who or what you are, you will not take my things and claim them as your own, just because you own these lands! What's mine is mine, not yours, but mine! You get it?!?"

"Are you quite through?"

The tone of his voice brought her rage to a grinding halt. It wasn't a tone of anger, but one of pure amusement. All she could do was nod her head.

"For your information I can take what I want from you, even though you are not from here, you are still on my lands which makes all that exists on it mine. Including you."

"WHAT! I don't think so! You don't own me!"

"On the contrary I do. And I can do as I please with you."

Taking a page from Inuyasha's book "Keh, as if I would let you do anything with me."

"Oh is that a challenge?" his smirk clearly showing.

Kagome turned beet red. "N..n..no"

Then she saw the smirk on his face. Welcome back fury! "You think this is funny? You are nothing more than a common thief! Taking what's not yours to take, and demanding everyone and everything to do as you command them to do!"

Before she could stop herself and looking back one day, she was going to wish that a meteor would of fallen from the sky, killing her, and stopping her from letting her next set statements from ever leaving her lips.

"Oh, I can only imagine what sex is like with you!" Let me get my best Sesshoumaru voice queued up here. "This Sesshoumaru commands you to get naked. This Sesshoumaru commands you to touch him right here. This Sesshoumaru commands you to suck…"

She was cut off when he leaned down next to her ear, and whispered "Miko, would you like to find out what it is like to have sex with this Sesshoumaru?"

Now you would think that embarrassment would have been the first thing to pop to the forefront of her emotions, but nope it didn't. You see she was a modern girl of modern times. She was an adult, she went through sex ed in school, seen the videos, educational and otherwise, and listened to her friends talk about it and they even explained to her the best positions to do it in. Even though she had never done it, it didn't necessarily mean she didn't know what was involved in actually doing it. So she decided to take what he said as a bluff and made the decision to call him on it. She was after all something he despised and would never ever consider touching…A human.
