A.N. Something I came across and figured I'd post. I do not own Inuyasha.

Typical, just typical, Kagome thought, furious as she trudged through the mucky forest, her shoes already ruined. Her eyes blazed, her energy erratic as she blasted a weaker demon out of her way. "Not in the fucking mood!"

The ugly thing screamed and ran away.

Huffing, the miko flopped down on the ground, realizing too late she'd sat in mud. "ARGH! Dumb mud, dumb forest! Baka, baka, BAKA Inuyasha!" She kicked a rock, groaning as her foot throbbed.

Nearby, a centipede reared up. "Give me the Shikon no Tama, Miko!" It flailed about, charging the upset girl head on.

Kagome let out a scream, pink energy surging forth and searing the thing to death. "Yeah, you wanted some of that, huh? Baka! Stupid demon! If Inuyasha ever pries his lips off that clay pot, he's next! I can't believe he left us in the middle of battle!" Collapsing into a heap, she began to sob, frustration leaking out of her in torrents. "Ugh... I hate him!"

In the shadows, Naraku's eyes went wide, watching her faintly glowing form. I think I'll come back later... He gulped, clearly a little frightened as he disappeared.
