Hi-Ya! This is another one of my Inu-Yasha fics (I think I've written pretty many...) In this fic... well... it is exactly what the title says it it. The Inu-Yasha cats decides to play charades. I hope you'll enjoy it! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charades Everybody was sitting in a ring. Everybody meaning: Inu-Yasha, Kagome, Shippou, Miroku, Sango & Sesshou-Maru. (Didn't want the lousy little troll Jaken in this fic.) Inu-Yasha was glaring at Inu-Yasha while Sesshou-Maru had his hands folded and smiled back at him. Miroku was sitting still with his eyes closed. Shippou looked as if he was about to fall asleep any second. Sango just stared out into nothingness. Kagome... she just looked sat there and looked at everyone. "What are we doing here like this?" Inu-Yasha growled and turned to Kagome. Kagome smiled and clapped her hands on her knees. "Well... I just had a funny idea and..." She was interrupted by a very annoyed demon. "Funny idea!?" He turned to glare at Sesshou-Maru who was still smiling. "And you thought it would be FUN to invite my sadistic brother here?!!" He yelled at her. "Umm... yeah." She answered cheerfully. Sesshou-Maru chuckled. "Calm down now brother, I'm sure there was some reason she summoned us all here." He winked at Kagome and Inu-Yasha started boiling. Everybody turned to look at Kagome who looked as cheerful as ever (Must've been some kind of poison...) "As I said. Yes there is a reason." She then turned serious. "I wanted you two to become friends again." She said. Sesshou-Maru and Inu-Yasha looked at eachothers and then they turned back to look at Kagome. "Whatever gave you the idea we ever even liked eachothers?!" Inu-Yasha said, folding his arms. "Well... you said that about Kikyo too... and it turned out that you had been inlove and I just thought that maybe--" Inu-Yasha was glaring at her. "So this is why I'm here? So that me and my little brother will... Kagome, I'm hurt. I thought you wanted to see me." He faked a cute pout. "But... isn't there anyway you'll like eachothers again...?" Kagome asked weakly. "Sure there is." Sesshou-Maru said and smiled. "Just hand over the Tetsusaiga to me and I'm sure everything will turn out well." He reached out his hand as to receive something. "Yeah right. You'd just kill me." Inu-Yasha said. "Of course I would." Sesshou-Maru answered and pulled back his hand. "And then I would capture the fair Kagome here, and we would live happily ever after." He smiled. Kagome sweated. "Kagome, this isn't working" Sango said. "There just has to be some other way..." Kagome nodded and thought hard for a moment, and then an idea came forth. "I've got it!" Everybody turned to look at her. "We'll do charades!" They stared at her. everyone: Charades...? They asked. Kagome nodded again. "A fun little game will lighten you both up!" She said cheerfully and stood up. "Okay, here's how it's done. And explanation later.... "So... You do something... and I'll have to ask what it is?" Sango asked Kagome. Kagome nodded. "But I can also pretend to be something or someone." "But you're not allowed to use sounds?" Miroku asked Kagome. She nodded again. "Okay, who wanna start?" Shippou began waving his hand and saying 'me, me'. "Okay Shippou." Shippou stood up in the middle of the ring, then he put a leaf on his head and transformed "A dog?" Sango asked. "A beaver?" Miroku asked. "Inu-Yasha?" Sesshou-Maru asked and every- body turned to look at him. "WHAT?" He asked. Kagome giggled "Can't you see it's a cat?" She said. Shippou growled at them all and turned back into his real form. "I was a rat stupids!!" He yelled at them. "You're not supposed to use any words fox." Sesshou-Maru said, smiling. "But since I were the one closest I think it is my turn." Inu-Yasha glared at Sesshou-Maru as he stepped into the ring. Sesshou-Maru thought for a moment and then he smiled (AGAIN!! Villains with faked smiles are just so cool...) He stood straight and then all of his heavy armor disappeared. He also flipped his hear so it lay prettily over one of his shoulders. He then began walking around in a feminine way, batting his eyelashes. Everybody stared at him as he did this. Some of them because they just didn't have anything to do, the rest of them because they just KNEW this weren't the way Sesshou-Maru were supposed to behave. Then Miroku got an idea "A girl!" Everyone glared at him. "Of course it's a girl... but what KIND of girl? Or WHICH girl?" Kagome asked Miroku. "A pretty girl...?" Shippou asked carefully. Sesshou-Maru shook his head and then he sat down and began gazing at the sky. "A lonely girl?" Kagome asked, "A waiting girl?" Sesshou-Maru winked at her showing them that she was on the right track. "Waiting for her destiny!" Kagome said. "Waiting for her lover!" Sango said. "Waiting for her husband..." Inu-Yasha grumbled. Sesshou-Maru pointed to Inu-Yasha and smiled. Showing them that they were almost there. "Umm... a wife?" Sesshou-Maru nodded. "A... wife with a samurai as a husband which got killed in the war?" "A wife with a traveling husband?" "A wife with a cheating husband?" "A wife with a demon husband!" Kagome yelled. Sesshou-Maru winked at her again. Everybody was silent... until Shippou decided to answer "Inu-Yasha's mother?" He asked. "That's right" Sesshou-Maru smiled and flipped his hair back and made his armor reappear. He then sat down next to Kagome, between Shippou and her. "You were really the one who figured the most out." He said and cupped her face in his hand. Inu-Yasha was immediately there and smashed his hand away from Kagome. "Ouch!" Sesshou-Maru said "That hurt, little brother." Inu-Yasha glared at him and sat closer to Kagome. Shippou stood up in the middle again, since he were the one who said the right thing. He stood there for a while and then he began screaming. "Inu-Yasha?" Kagome and Sesshou-Maru both asked at the same time. Inu-Yasha glared at them and Sesshou-Maru smiled fondly at Kagome. "I like her." He said and then turned back to watch Shippou. "Umm... no." Shippou said and scratched hi head "I just couldn't figure out anything to do." Everybody facefaulted and he went back to sit on the ground. "Kagome..? Can't you?" He then asked. Kagome nodded and got up to stand in the middle. "Hmm..." She thought. What should I be? She thought to herself? She did have an idea in the beginning but now she knew that Sesshou-Maru would figure it out in two seconds... so she didn't know what she'd do now. She thought... and then she got it. She smiled. She put a ribbon in her hair (I'm not going to write where she got it from) and then held her hands in the way you had them when you held a bow. She then turned to Inu-Yasha and pretended that she shot the an arrow at him. Inu-Yasha felt a pin in his heart... now... she looked much like. "Kikyo..." He said. "That's right!" Kagome cheered. Inu-Yasha blinked "W-what?" "You guessed right! And fast too!" Inu-Yasha glared at her and walked towards the middle. He just stood there for a while and then he brought out his Tetsusaiga. Sesshou-Maru looked startled at Inu-Yasha, but then calmed down when he didn't point it at him. Inu-Yasha pretended to get fight someone, then he pretended to be hit in the chest, then he fell to the ground, pretending to be dead. "A dead man?" Sango asked. "Somebody who got killed?" Shippou asked. "Somebody who got killed in a sword fight?" Kagome asked. Inu-Yasha pointed at Kagome, signalizing that they were on the right track. "You" Sesshou-Maru said and smiled. Inu-Yasha glared at him. "Wait now I know!" Sesshou-Maru said "I finally killed you!". "NO!" Inu-Yasha yelled. "No using words" Sesshou-Maru said. Everybody was looking at Inu-Yasha, he didn't move. "A dead samurai?" Miroku asked. Inu-Yasha jumped up "YES! A DEAD SAMURAI! WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG FOR YOU IDIOTS TO FIGURE IT OUT!!" Everybody stared at him as he went back to sit beside Kagome. Miroku walked towards the middle, he smiled. Then he started glaring at everybody. Then he began walking around looking annoyed. "Inu-Yasha" Sango said before Sesshou-Maru had the chance too. Sesshou-Maru glared at her. "That's right!" Miroku said and clapped his hands. He patted her bottom on the way back, then he got smashed in the head. Sango stood in the middle, a bored look on her face. Then she filled her cheeks up with air and laid down on the ground. She curled up rather cat like and purred. "cat" Everybody said besides Inu-Yasha and Kagome. She nodded her head. So... it was a special cat. Kagome and Inu-Yasha had been staring at her, and then they said at the same time "Buyo". "That's right!" Sango jumped up and cheered. Then Kagome and Inu-Yasha went to stand together in the middle. Sesshou-Maru glared at Inu-Yasha, how were he supposed to know about some stupid little animal named Buyo? Inu-Yasha and Kagome looked at eachothers, then he swept her up in her arms. He held her in two arms. She looked shocked, not just because being swept up like that but by being swept up like that by Inu-Yasha. He looked at her with loving eyes and she gulped. Everybody was to shocked to say anything, except Sesshou-Maru who were sending death glares at Inu-Yasha. Inu-Yasha was like that for a moment, until Kagome clobbered him. "What ARE you doing!?!" Inu-Yasha was sent groaning to the floor "Stupid... girl..." Inu-Yasha said as he raised from the floor. "What were you thinking?!" She yelled at him. "This was just a game, right? so it weren't for real!" "But it was still embarrassing!" "It was only pretend!!" They watched them argue. "I thought you weren't supposed to use any words..." Shippou said. "But this makes it so much easier" Sesshou-Maru said "Everybody can see that they're a couple" He said and smiled. Everybody turned to stare at him. Then they turned to stare at Kagome and Inu-Yasha. They were blushing in atleast nine different colours. Sesshou-Maru stood up. "As much as I'd like to stay... I have some other important business to attend to." He said and left. They all stared at the direction he had went off to. "...a couple?" Inu-Yasha and Kagome stared at eachothers. And they lived happily ever after -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay! It's done! done, done, done! Well... what I meant... was that, Inu-Yasha and Kagome always argue? Right? Soo... when Sesshou-Maru said they looked like a couple... then, well wouldn't you be embarrassed? I sure would... and angry... and I would probably yell at the person for saying something like that. Oh well...
