Here's my Inuyasha story. Its not finished yet, this is JUST first chapter
and I must say I'm rather proud of myself ^_^
I'm a first timer here so tell me what ya think. I try to keep this as close to the original series as humanly possible. It takes place right after Naraku kidnaps Kikyou after he creates his new body from merged demon bodies. Kagome is curious after Inuyasha's behavior at Kikyou's presence.
Chapter I
The sun had long been down behind the mountains and dusk had fallen upon the ambitious party that sat in the middle of the woods round a crackling fire beneath the dark, star-lit sky. Miroku sat comfortably leaning against a rather large rock, his staff at side.
Sango laid beside him, asleep, with Kirara and Shippou huddle asleep at her side. She was cautious to keep a 2 ft. distance from the amorous monk.
And the handsome half-demon, Inuyasha sat, legs Indian style, arms crossed, and Tessaiga at side, across from them. At his side, Kagome, her face expressed deep thought her eyes seemed to be gone into space, as she stared down at the dancing flames of the fire.
"Where do you supposed Naraku has taken Kikyou?" Miroku suggested, looking at Inuyasha thoughtfully.
Inuyasha's eyebrow twitched.
"I don't know, I told you not to worry about it. I'll handle it!" he said sternly.
Miroku nodded teasingly, "Of course you will."
Before Inuyasha could remark back at him, Miroku laid his staff down and said, with a yawn:
"I'm going to get some sleep, I suggest you do the same."
He laid down. The yellow fire reflected off of Inuyasha's golden eyes.
"Hmpf."
Minutes later Miroku was asleep. All that could be heard was the crackling of the fire.
Just then, Inuyasha noticed how quiet Kagome was, and she wasn't even asleep.
"Hey, shouldn't you be getting some sleep, too?" He asked softly, but with his usual tone. Kagome blinked and looked at Inuyasha.
"Huh?. Oh, yeah. I am tired. I was just thinking."
She yawned and leaned on Inuyasha's shoulder. She remained quiet as if asleep, her eyes closed. Inuyasha flinched slightly and blushed immensely. He looked down at her.
"She seems so strange today." He thought. "She's been so quiet since Naraku took off with Kikyou. Almost. . .sad."
He looked thoughtful as he examined her features.
"And she looks so much like her, and yet she is so different. I see her as more than a reincarnation of the woman I knew 50 years ago. . .50 years ago when Naraku caused us to betray each other ."
He stared at her with caring eyes, unlike the others knew of him.
Unlike the others had seen, except Kagome. His thoughts were awakened by the soft voice referring to him.
"Inuyasha."
It was Kagome. She wasn't asleep.
"Yeah?" He said, hiding his state of quake.
"Do. . .do you." She began, timidly. Her dark eyes staring into the fire.
"Do I what?" He said softly, he hadn't changed his stare on her.
Kagome continued, "Do you care more about Kikyou than. Than me?"
She turned her head up and looked deep into his eyes, his eyebrows lowered into an expression of guardianship and yearning.
"Well I. . .umm. . ." He looked away abruptly.
Kagome's hand was on his shoulder, she grasped the material of his kimono in her fist gently as she continued to stare deeply at his face.
Finally she spoke, "I know that you once told me that you would protect me, and that we are paired together for my ability to sense jewel shards-"
She was cut off as Inuyasha quickly turned to her and said softly, yet sternly.
"Kagome, that's not only it! You know that! You. . ." His eyes softened.
"Your much more to me than that." They shared deep stares, then Kagome spoke.
"But Kikyou..."
"Don't worry about Kikyou." He said softly.
She loosened her grasp on him. She smiled faintly. Kagome laid her head on his shoulder again and began to drift to sleep, as she said, "Okay.."
Inuyasha blinked, slowly drifted asleep to Kagome's gentle scent.
