Fire on Ice

*Chapter Two*

They entered the huge rink and found no one inside.

“Well, give me your things and I’ll put them away in our locker,” said InuYasha. As he walked away, there was the team InuYasha and the gang was competing against.

“Who are these dweebs?” snarled Sunsai.

“Dweebs?  Why I ought a …” yelled Kagome and Sango.  Kags could handle weird but she is not a dweeb.

“Now ladies …” Miroku couldn’t finish because he was hit on the head and he passed out.

InuYasha came out and stared blankly at the sight before him. There were fists flying between Sunsai, Kaname and Sango, and Kagome was really doing nothing.  The boys, Sauske and Tikormakutsu, were trying to brake up the girls.  InuYasha finally came in and gently hit Sango on the head.  At least it broke them up.

“Oww! What was that for?” Sango said rubbing her head.

“That was to break you three up,” InuYasha said back.

“Well, we’re sorry.  The girls can get a little rough being called names,” InuYasha apologized.

“That’s ok. We’re just going to leave so there are no more fights,” said Sauske.

“Ok girls, where is Miroku?”  InuYasha demanded.  The two girls sweat dropped and pointed to a purple figure on the ground.  All three leant down and shook him.

“What?!  Oh yeah, I got conked on the head by these two aggressive women,” Miroku angrily said.

“Ok, before another fight happens, we are sorry,” Kagome said.

“Apology accepted,” Miroku said back.

“Now, let’s start skating for the finals please!” InuYasha said, growing very impatient.  They all entered the rink and went off doing flips, twirls and jumps.  But Kagome didn’t.  She looked at InuYasha for a very long time admiring him.  Something was different about her right now.

“Is it possible I like InuYasha?” she thought.  “ Naa, but still what is this new feeling?”

InuYasha came to Kagome and asked her to skate, making her blush.  Kagome was flattered and she accepted.  Miroku and Sango came off the ice and went to the control panel.  Sango pulled a lever and the lights went off then a spotlight appeared.  Miroku pulled another lever and “Sweet Child O’ Mine“ by Guns & Roses came on the large speakers. 

She's got a smile that it seems to me

Reminds me of childhood memories

Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky

Now and then when I see her face

She takes me away to that special place

And if I'd stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry

Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet child o' mine

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet love of mine

Kagome and InuYasha stopped and looked around and then at each other. Then InuYasha grinned at her, grabbed her hand again, and led her around the rink in an ice dance.

She's got eyes of the bluest skies

As if they thought of rain

I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain

Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place

Where as a child I'd hide

And pray for the thunder

And the rain to quietly pass me by

Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet child o' mine

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet love of mine

Miroku and Sango starred at them in awe.  They were amazed at how well they skated together. InuYasha easily held Kagome up over his head and twirled her around.

Oh, Oh, Oh, yea

Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet child o' mine

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet love of mine

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Sweet child o' mine

Oh, Sweet love of mine

Kagome and InuYasha were so lost in each other they didn’t realize they were being watched.  InuYasha spun Kagome threw her in the air and she nailed the landing perfectly.

Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go?

Oh, Oh, Where do we go?

Oh, Where do we go now?

Where do we go?

oh, (sweet child)

Where do we go now?

Oh, Where do we go now?

Oh, Where do we go?

Oh, Where do we go now?

Oh, Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go?

Oh, Where do we go now?

No, No, No, No, No, No

Sweet child, Sweet Child of mine

The song ended with InuYasha holding Kagome around her waist and she was leaning back.  They jumped apart and blushed when they heard Sango and Miroku clapping.

“You guys freakin’ rock!” exclaimed Sango and Miroku. “If you guys skate like that, we’re sure to win!”

None of the four noticed they had company.  The other team had not left after all.  They stayed behind to see the practice.  Now that they saw what they’re up against, they left to make plans.
