Sesshoumaru is sitting under a large tree in the middle of the garden with his eyes closed deep in thought. So he does not hear Maven come in or see the stick heading for his head.

"Owww! What was that for?"

"Why are you sitting out here and leaving poor Ms. Kagome all alone. You should be with her unless you want her to marry my Darling Inuyasha, which will not be happening so get off your lazy ass and go to her!!"

"Who gave you a low life wench of a mutt the right to tell me Sesshoumaru Prince of the Western Lands what to do let alone the right to hit me with that damned stick."

"It's not a stick it's a staff."

"It's a stupid stick."

"Staff." Maven moves to fit him with it once more but misses.

"Stick." Sesshoumaru jumps out the way off another swing.

"It's a staff! Now stand still."

"It's a wimpy little stick and make me." Says Sesshoumaru as he jumps away from yet another swing.

"Staff and fine I will." Maven runs after Sesshoumaru trying to hit him while Sesshoumaru easily jumps out of the way.

"Surely you can do better than that, come on hit me wench."  He dodges yet another swing. "Your worse than my brother." Maven growls at him and disappear into thin air. Sesshoumaru looks around carefully trying to figure out where she went. "Mav..." Sesshoumaru's legs close quickly and a brief look of pain passes over his face. "Damn you to hell bitch and that damn stick of yours!" Maven appears behind him and is just about to hit him again this time in the head when she is lifted into the air.

"What the hell?"

You know your not supposed to attack your host.

Why Ms. Kagome I wasnt attacking Mr. Killy, just teaching him the difference between a staff and a stick.

I do call hitting a man in the jewels teaching them difference, Maven.

I agree.

Shut up Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru growled at Kagome.

How dare you tell me to shut up. Wench you are aware this is my house so I will shut up when I want to.

Wench? You know you and your brother seem to have a memory problem. This is the last time I will say this, my name is Ka-Go-Me! Now get it right or go to hell. Kagome smirked at him. Sesshoumaru growled once again and run to attack her.

You will pay for that mutt. Kagome sighed.

They never learnof well. Kagome lifted her left hand and held it in front of her, Sesshoumaru froze dead in his tracks.

What the fuck is thisI cant move.

Kagome floated Maven over to her until she was but two feet in front of her.

I still say you shouldnt beat up your host but in this caseyou got five minutes before the spell wears off do as you please. Kagome lowered Maven to the ground and walked away calmly. Maven grinned happily as she turned around to face Sesshoumaru who just stood there.

Inuyasha looked around the house for Kagome for 15 minutes finally to find her sitting in the living room cursing understand her breath about how dumb male dogs are.

Hey does that count me Im only half dog ya know. Kagome jumped in surprise.

Dont do that Inuyasha, you scared me half to death.

So your point is..

Sorry Kagome, I didnt mean to scare you I just wanted to give you something. Kagome now notices hes hiding something behind his back.

Your forgiven now what is it you want to give me. Inuyasha took his hands out from behind his back and show what was in them to her. In his left hand was a box of chocolate and in his right was a bouquet of red roses. He handed them to her.

I wanted to say sorry for being rude when you got here and ask ya she you might wanna get out for some pizza or something with me later. Inuyasha gave her a half smile. Kagome smiled back and brought the roses up to her nose to smell them.

Thank you Inuyasha and Id love to.

Yes! How do ya like that big bro.

Kagome gave him a light hug and went back to smelling the roses just as Maven walked in still carrying her staff.

Ohhi Ms. Kagome.

Hi Maven. Said Kagome still smelling the roses. Maven then noticed the roses.

Oh how pretty are they from Sesshoumaru? Inuyasha growled.

Actually know Inuyasha gave them to me. Mavens eyes flashed red for a second before she ran towards Inuyasha and hit him on the head with her staff.

OwBitch what was that for?

I see Im not the only one getting hit with that thing today. Said Sesshoumaru as he entered the room. Maven ignored him.

You never gave me any roses and Im your wife! She screamed at Inuyasha.

You are not my wife and that is not a reason to hit me with that damned stick! Inuyasha yelled back.

For once I agree with you on something mutt.

Huh? Inuyasha stood confused while Mavens eyes flashed red once again.

I am to your wife and it is not a stick its a staff! She hit Inuyasha on the head again.

Ow damn youyou do that again and Ill take the stick from you and break it! Maven screamed in rage.

It is not a stick!

Yes it is. Said both brothers at the same time. Maven once again hit Inuyasha in the head then flipped backwards and hit Sesshoumaru, who did not notice her move do to that fact he was silently laughing at Inuyasha getting beat up by a stupid little mutt. Kagome who had just been sitting on the couch smelling her roses and watching at the same time now decided to speak.

You know maven if that baboon on the Lion King was real I think you and him would get along fine. Maven turned to her and smiled

Thank you Ms. Kagome. While she was talking Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha moved to jump her. Kagome seeing this lifted them both into the air before they could reach her.

You know boys its not nice to sneak up on a lady, now say your sorry to Maven or stay up there for the rest of the day. Maven laughed, Kagome just sat there smiling and smelling her roses.

Feh, I will do no such thing.

This Sesshoumaru apologizes to no one.

Fine then stay up there. Answered Kagome.

20 minutes later.

Fine sorry Maven, you happy now?

Yes Inuyasha thank you. She lowered him to the floor. Do you have something to say Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru just stared at her. Ok then well see you later, Maven come with me to the dojo please its been awhile since Ive practiced with a staff.

Sure, no problem.

Inuyasha we can go out for pizza tomorrow for lunch k?

Ok Kagome what about Sesshoumaru?

He gets to stay up there till his male pride goes down or until sundown today or maybe sun up tomorrow depends on how Im feeling. All three of them laughed as they exited the room.

Damned bitch shell pay for this. Said Sesshoumaru out loud once the were gone.
