PROLOGUE
Kagome looked down at the Shikon Jewel and sighed. She couldn't believe it was finally over. Kikyo had been laid to rest and Naraku defeated. Kagome looked to all of her friends and then to the well. She knew that with no Shikon shards to find she was completely useless. Inuyasha wouldn't come get her. She sighed sadly.
Sango studied her friends and her fiance Miroku, but mostly watched Kagome and Inuyasha. She knew they were perfect for each other, but the two just hadn't realized it yet. The demon slayer sighed thinking that not only were they perfect together, but if they didn't reveal their true feelings soon it would be too late. She just had to get them together somehow.
Miroku, who was sitting down close to Sango, sat staring at his hand. He never really noticed how strange he felt without the gaping black hole. He knew it was over and that his wind tunnel was gone for good now, but it still felt as though he had lost a part of himself. He heard Sango sigh, so he draped an arm around her shoulder and planted a small kiss to her hair. He followed her gaze to the couple. A small smile found its way to his face when he saw what was wrong with his fiance.
'Do not worry Sango my dear they will find their own path,' he said mentally as he looked at his friends.
Without warning Inuyasha's ears popped up from his head turning to one direction as he sniffed the air. This could only mean one thing, that somewhere in the forest was a demon. Kagome's face creased with worry as she watched Inuyasha sniff out the demon.
"Inuyasha," she whispered.
"Shh," Inuyasha responded, "There is something wrong here," he said still sniffing the air.
Kagome only nodded while Inuyasha continued his investigation. He sniffed the air unrelentingly. Suddenly, he stiffened at a loud boom that could be heard in the distance.
"It's getting closer," he said with smirk, "This should be fun."
"What is it Inuyasha?" Miroku asked as he helped Sango up from her sitting spot.
"It's a very powerful demon judging by its scent," Inuyasha stated unworried.
'One last battle wouldn't kill me….I hope,' Kagome thought and hopped onto Inuyasha's back.
"Kagome, are you okay," Shippo asked jumping into her arms, "You look kind of sad."
Kagome looked down at Shippo and smiled, "No, I'm not sad, Shippo, just happy."
"Kilala," Sango said as Kilala responded to her owner's call and transformed.
"Coming Miroku?" Sango questioned offering her hand to help him onto Kilala.
"Always, Sango," Miroku replied taking her offer and got on Kilala's back.
"Alright then let's go," Inuyasha said as he began bounding towards the demon's scent.
"Let's go, Kilala!" Sango shouted as the huge feline gave a loud roar and began to follow Inuyasha.
It didn't take long to find the demon as it tore through trees giving out a loud roar. It was hideous with its slimy purple skin and covered in who knows what. It was fat and it had only one eye. Its legs were small, but its arms made up for the legs though. Its arms were twice the size of its legs and a lot bigger. The four fingers it had on each of its hands were nothing but bone protruding from its knuckles.
"Eeeww," Shippo exclaimed making a disgusted face.
"You said it, Shippo," Sango agreed, making a similar face as Shippo's as she climbed off Kilala's back.
Miroku sighed, "This is going to be a long battle," he said.
"What makes you say that, Miroku?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah!" Inuyasha exclaimed supporting Kagome's question.
"I sense a strong demonic aura here," Miroku replied.
"As do I, but it does seem odd though," Sango said.
"Doesn't matter," Inuyasha said leaping into battle while pulling out the Tetesusaiga.
Miroku sighed again, "There he goes again with his reckless ways," he said as he watched Inuyasha get clobbered.
"We better help him," Sango said to Kagome and Miroku.
Kagome nodded, "Right!" she exclaimed
"He does appear to be lost without us," Miroku noted watching as Inuyasha was slammed into the ground then back around into a tree.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled getting her bow and arrows out.
She prepared her bow with an arrow and began to aim. Her hands shook as she pulled the string back, and then let the arrow fly. The arrow had a pure essence around it as it swished through the air.
'Come on, come on,' Kagome said mentally as she watched her arrow hit its mark.
"Bulls eye!" Kagome cheered as the demon gave a last roar of pain, but before it could be purified it charged towards her. Kagome's eyes got bigger in realization as the demon neared her.
'It's not going to purify in time!' Kagome screamed in her mind as she tried to get out of the way, but something was wrong. She couldn't move. She was frozen in terror. With nothing else she could do she braced herself for the impact.
Inuyasha watched in horror as the demon attacked Kagome. He heard Sango shout to Kagome to warn her, but she didn't move.
'I've got to help her,' Inuyasha thought frantically as his body began to move towards Kagome.
"Kagome! Move!" Shippo yelled worried for his surrogate mother from the bush he had been hiding.
It was too late. The demon's arms swished through the air coming in contact with Kagome's body. A sickening crack could be heard as Kagome went backwards gravity doing its job as her body hit the ground with a thud. Inuyasha went to greet it.
"Kagome! Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted holding her in his arms as the demon purified.
'What do I do? What do I do?' Inuyasha asked himself frantically when an answer hit him, 'Kaede!' he thought.
He picked her up and quickly began his way to Keade's hut. Miroku and Sango gave each other worried and confused looks until Miroku decided to speak up.
"I believe he is going to Keade's," he said, "We better follow and see how Kagome is doing."
Sango nodded, "Yeah, let's go!" she agreed with Shippo on her shoulder hopping onto Kilala's back pulling Miroku on as well.
Inuyasha ran as fast as he could to get Kagome to Keade's. He felt Kagome's blood drip down his hand from the huge gash the demon had left in Kagome's side when it had slammed into her. It wasn't until then he realized Kagome was losing blood fast and could easily die soon. He pushed himself to the limit running faster than he had ever ran before. He was also sure she had a broken bone somewhere due to the sickening crack he heard.
'Hold on, Kagome,' Inuyasha said mentally as Keade's hut came into view.
Inuyasha busted into the hut startling Keade.
"Hey, you old hag, Kagome's hurt! You have to help her now!" Inuyasha demanded as he laid Kagome on a futon.
Keade looked at Kagome as her eyes widened at the site of Kagome's bloody body. She let the insult go with Kagome's life on the line.
"I will see what I can do Inuyasha, but for now I must ask ye to remain outside and tell Sango and the monk to remain there as well," Keade replied.
"Feh! I ain't goin' nowhere!" Inuyasha exclaimed.
"Inuyasha! Ye must for this is a very serious matter and the consequence of ye distracting me could be disastrous," Keade spoke wisely as a grumbling and very worried Inuyasha left the hut.
A few minutes later Miroku, Sango, and Shippo arrived on the back of Kilala. Mikoku hopped off the cat demon first and then helped Sango down gently. Shippo, who had been on Sango's shoulder, had fresh tears in his eyes as he jumped from Sango's shoulder into her arms. He cuddled in the warmth of the demon slayer's arms. Kilala transformed to her cuter kitten self.
"Inuyasha! Where is Kagome?" Sango asked Inuyasha worried about losing another friend. She had already lost her family and didn't want to lose one of the closest people to family she had.
Inuyasha sighed.
"I don't know, but Keade said to stay out here so she could help Kagome," he said helplessly.
"Will she be okay?" Shippo asked as tears fell from his eyes.
Everyone just held their heads low at the question unsure of what the answer would be.
After a worry intense hour went by waiting for news of Kagome's condition Keade finally appeared at the entrance of the hut wiping sweat from her forehead. Her body looked spent as she walked toward the strange group of friends only to be greeted with Inuyasha in her face.
"How is she? Will she live?" he asked letting the worry show from his voice uncaring.
Keade sighed sadly, "I do not know yet, Inuyasha, only time will tell," she replied.
"Can I see her?" Inuyasha questioned the old lady.
"Yes, ye may see her now," she replied moving out of the way and outside the hut allowing Inuyasha and Kagome their privacy as she began talking with the rest of the gang.
Kaede was trying to discover how Kagome got into such bad shape by getting the story from Miroku, Sango, and Shippo.
Inuyasha moved past Keade and into the hut in which Kagome lay. He looked at Kagome's bandaged and bruised body seeing how bad she was hurt. He looked at her body seeing that his fears of the broken bone were confirmed. The ends of a large bruise under the bandaging showed it was a rib. She would need to heal for a couple of weeks.
She was lightly breathing as he approached her. He sat down beside her, and hesitatingly pulled her head into his lap.
"Kagome please don't leave me," he began then continued, "You're the only one I learned to trust since my mother died. Kagome, I don't know how to say this, but I don't want you to go. I guess it's because I," he hesitated,"… I love you," He finished as a single tear escaped his eye. He quickly brushed it away unaware that Kagome had heard all of his beautiful speech.
Kagome opened her eyes and smiled blushing as well as Inuyasha. She had woken up earlier when Kaede had been leaving the hut. Kagome had been near returning to sleep when she felt Inuyasha take her head in his lap. At first she was confused since she didn't hear anyone come in, but realized what was happening when Inuyasha had begun to speak.
"I love you too," Kagome said smiling even more.
Kagome and Inuyasha were both smiling as Inuyasha brought his lips to hers. They began to kiss passionately, but were unaware of Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Keade watching until Miroku cleared his throat.
"Well, I can tell you two are busy and will leave you all alone for now," Miroku said allowing a perverted grin on his face.
Sango was also happy. Finally the couple had realized how blind they had been to see how much they cared for each other. At least now she wouldn't have to worry about Kagome leaving and never coming back.
Shippo made a disgusted face and turned his head away while Sango laughed at his childish ways.
Keade could only smile at the couple. She may have extended the truth a little about Kagome's condition. The old woman smiled a sly grin realizing how conniving she was, but she couldn't let Kagome leave and never come back. Keade loved the futuristic girl.
Shippo listened as Inuyasha and Miroku both argued about the kiss until Sango had had enough and hit Miroku with her gigantic boomerang causing him to go unconscious. The fox demon always loved a good Inuyasha and Miroku disagreement, something interesting always happened.
3 weeks later
Kagome was now healed, but was still a little sore. Inuyasha had come to her earlier and she didn't understand what was going on. He had told her it was a matter of importance, and that she desperately needed to come with him. She was extremely worried as they continued on their way, but then realized she didn't even know where they were going.
"Inuyasha? Where are we going?" Kagome asked as she rode on his back.
"Don't be so impatient. You'll know when we get there," Inuyasha replied.
Kagome only sighed and nodded her head. She knew that voice. It was the voice you couldn't argue with, so she left it alone. Soon, they came to a stop confusing Kagome. There was nothing really here that looked like it was important. It was just a beautiful meadow that held the smell of fresh dew.
"Kagome you did say you loved me right? And that you wanted to be my mate right?" Inuyasha asked pulling her against his body.
"Of course," Kagome replied wanting that more than anything.
"Then I'll need to mark you," Inuyasha said looking into Kagome's beautiful chocolate eyes.
"Mark?" Kagome said making it sound as a question.
"It tells other demons that you are mine and only mine," Inuyasha said.
Kagome loved the sound of that, and couldn't contain the smile that had appeared on her face. Inuyasha noticed and smiled back relieved that she wasn't offended by it or afraid of it. He was scared that she would back out.
"Then I would love to be marked by you," she replied.
"Good, now this might hurt," Inuyasha warned, "tilt your head a little."
Kagome did as she was told and tilted her head not at all expecting what happened next. Her mind had been clouded with thoughts of how Inuyasha was going to mark her, but it wasn't at all what she was thinking it was going to be.
He then bit into her causing her to wince in pain and give a little yelp of surprise. He wanted to stop after hearing her little yell, and not only had he heard her but also felt her wince as well. The thought of hurting her was unbearable, but it had to be done. He finally took his fangs out of her and began to use his tongue to lick the blood that began to seep out of his mark.
"There," Inuyasha said admiring his mark.
"Inuyasha," Kagome said unsure as something suddenly weighed heavily upon her heart. She had forgotten something that had recently resurfaced to her mind.
"Yeah?" Inuyasha asked beginning to look worried.
"Umm…are do you still wanting to become a full-fledged demon?" Kagome asked terrified of his answer.
Inuyasha looked at her sweetly. He stroked her cheek in a sweet caress, as she enjoyed his touch on her face, "Kagome, there is only one wish I want now and that is for you to be happy," he replied taking the jewel from her neck.
He wished upon it and it began to glow, but the glow then shifted to Kagome. It stopped within a matter of seconds. Kagome looked at him confused not understanding what had just happened. Nothing had happened from his wish.
"Inuyasha?" she said questioningly as he began to smirk, "What did you wish for?"
"I wished you'd live a lifespan that would be equal to that of a half-demon. I wouldn't want to lose you so quickly," he replied still holding her.
She shuddered at the thought that she would be old and gray while he would be still in his prime. It was a very wise wish of him, and she was so proud. She leaped up in her happiness kissing him deeply.
"Inuyasha!" Miroku called with Sango by his side when he came upon the scene of Kagome and Inuyasha kissing, "I was wondering where you went in such a hurry," Miroku said suggestively.
Inuyasha looked annoyed, but let it go. Sango and Miroku were only worried that something had happened to their friends and had come to help in case there was trouble. Kagome explained that Inuyasha and herself only wanted some alone time. Kagome turned to Inuyasha with a serious look that worried Inuyasha.
"I need to go home to my time," Kagome said.
