Redemptions


This is my first fan fiction ever posted on the internet by me. So please, if you see any errors or such, please note on it in a review.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha called, looking up at the window from outside. The light in her bedroom turned on. She came to the window seconds later. She looked down at him. He crossed his arms and snorted at her pajamas. "You're times up, lets go."

Kagome sighed. "But it's so late at night." She said pointing at the half moon.

"You're point is? Let's go."

"Fine, I'll get my stuff." She sighed then disappeared into her bedroom. She threw her bag out the window at Inuyasha. He caught it and growled.

"Does she always have to throw her junk out the window at me?" He said quietly as he opened her bag and dug around in it. He could hear her walking down the stairs in her house very faintly. He pulled out a white bra and he looked at it funny. "The hell is this thing? Food?" Kagome walked out of her house with a beige bag of food. She locked the door and ran around the corner to Inuyasha. She yelped when she saw him holding the bra.

"SIT BOY!"

Inuyasha fell face first into the ground, Kagome's bra and bag falling beside him. She ran over and took them. "Inuyasha!"

"What!" He growled as he sat up. Kagome put her things in the bag.

"You shouldn't touch my things! It's my private stuff!" she told him, blushing a little.

"What is it anyways?" He asked, standing up and rubbing the dirt off his face.

"Nothing."

"Nothing? Well, this 'nothing' seems to get you so embarrassed." Inuyasha smirked. Kagome put the bag on her back and put her hands on her hips.

"I got it for Sango."

"What is 'it'?"

"NOTHING!"

"Well, it's got to be something." He said smiling, enjoying teasing Kagome. "You're so worked up about it."

"Inuyasha!" He flinched for the word. He waited for it but it never came. "Let's go."

He opened his eyes and saw Kagome heading for the well shrine. He shrugged and ran after her.

"Sango!" Kagome skipped into the hut where Sango and Miroku were sitting in front of the fire pit. Miroku, as usual, had a red hand print on his face from Sango. She stood up.

"Ah, Kagome." She smiled.

"Where's Inuyasha?" Miroku asked. "We were asked to exterminate a demon from the village. It seems the men of the village have some troubles from a demon."

"Oh," Kagome pointed behind her. "Myoga was showing him the demon prints by the well. He'll be back in a moment. Sango, i got you some clothes that i don't fit no more. And I bought you some stuff." She opened her bag and handed Miroku the food and showed Sango a pair of blue jeans.

"You think I'd fit them?" Sango asked, putting them up to her waist.

"Of course, and you'd look hot in them." Miroku said, peeking over Sango's shoulder. She brought her hand up and hit Miroku in the face again, making the hand print even more red.

"Lecher." She said. He stepped back from Sango and sat back down, waving his hand over the slap to cool it off.

"I think you would fit them." Kagome continued, ignoring Miroku's whining. "Here's a top to go with it." She pulled out a pink tank top and handed to Sango.

"I should wear them when we aren't doing anything that would rip them."

"That's all right."

"Thanks, Kagome. I'll try them on." Sango smiled and walked out of the hut to the Bath house. Kagome looked at Miroku. He waved his staff a little.

"I think she would hot in those clothes." He smiled. Kagome sighed.

"Can't you get you're mind out of the gutter?" Miroku shrugged. Kagome tossed her bag onto her sleeping bag that she left and took the jewel shards out from under her shirt. She looked inside the bottle and counted. One big piece and four little shards. They had about one half and a quarter to go until the jewel was fixed. She looked around the hut. "Where's' Shippo?"

"He and Kaede went back to the village where she lived with the priestess, Kikyo. She told Inuyasha to return to her when he finished restoring the Shikon Jewel, and Shippo went with her to protect her." Miroku explained as Inuyasha walked into the hut. He crossed his arms and looked around the room.

"All right, where's the jewel shards?" He demanded. He looked at Kagome and held a hand out. "Give me the bottle."

"Why?"

"Just give them!" He hissed. Kagome sighed deeply and took of the necklace. She held it out to Inuyasha and he snatched it. He opened it and dropped a shard inside. He closed it up and handed it back.

"Where'd you find that? I didn't even sense it."

"Myoga said a demon took one from a man at the village. I was told he tried to flee but the demon ate the man whole, including the jewel shard. But I got it back, with no help from the Shard detector." Inuyasha said, referring to Kagome. She put the bottle around her neck, and put her hands on her hips.

"Inuyasha! SIT BOY!" Inuyasha's fang necklace glowed and it dragged him rougly down to the ground. He fell through the boards of the hut and down into a mud hole. He cried out as he sat up.

"WHY THE HELL IS THERE MUD DOWN HERE!" Inuyasha yelled. He looked at his haori and growled loudly. Miroku and Kagome looked down at Inuyasha.

"Oops. I forgot we were inside." Kagome said quietly.

"Congratulations, Inuyasha. You just found a Mud Bath." Miroku said. Kagome looked at him.

"Mud Bath? You mean this is like a hot spring only mud, not water?" She asked. Miroku nodded.

"These are very rare to find in some areas." Miroku explained. "They are found mostly in the rainy parts of here."

"DAMN YOU KAGOME! YOU'D BETTER RUN, CUZ IM PISSED!" He yelled. Kagome glared at him as he stood up and looked at her, their faces just inches away.

"SIT BOY!"

Inuyasha yelled out as he was dragged deep into the mud pit, deepening it with him. Kagome stood up and whipped the mud off her cheek and walked out of the hut. Miroku shook his head and tisked at Inuyasha. "You're going to have a tough time getting Kagome to sleep with you."

"You sick monk!" Inuyasha jumped out of the mud hole and pushed Miroku into it. "Who said I wanted Kagome to sleep with me! I mean, come on! she's' Kagome!"

"OH!" Inuyasha turned around to see Kagome and Sango standing by the door. Sango was wearing the outfit Kagome brought for her. "I'm JUST Kagome, eh!"

"Uh..." Inuyasha gulped. Sango gave Inuyasha the look she always gives him when he pisses Kagome off.

"Well fine then! Then your JUST Inuyasha, looking for the jewel shards on his own," Kagome smirked and turned around and picked up her bag. "I'm leaving."
"What? You just got here!" Inuyasha said, Miroku climbing out of the hole.

"And now I'm leaving. I can tell when I'm not wanted." Kagome gave Inuyasha one last glare before she left the hut. Sango put her hands on her hips and turned to Inuyasha and Miroku.

"But I just brought her here! What's her problem?"

"Your such a jerk, Inuyasha." Sango said, walking over to her bed where her weapon, the Hiraikotsu, was hooked against the wall. "Cant you tell when to stop!"

"How am I supposed to know that?" Inuyasha spat. Sango looked over at Inuyasha and swung her Hiraikotsu at Inuyasha and Miroku. It hit Inuyasha right before his feet but the impact sent Miroku back into the mud pit.
"Ask her." She picked up her Hiraikotsu, put it over her shoulder, and then left the hut. Inuyasha's brow twitched.

"God damn it..." Inuyasha growled and left the hut after Kagome.

"God, why does he have to be such a jerk?" Kagome said, walking slowly up the trail. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked up at the sky, and stopped walking.

"He always teases me...its cool at first, but then it gets too far..." She smiled. "Sometimes, i even start to like it when he pays more attention to me than anyone else..."

Inuyasha leaned forward in the tree he was in, getting and ear full on her out load thoughts. He blushed when she finished her last sentence. Kagome looked down at the ground.

"But then...there's Kikyo...his past love..." Inuyasha stopped blushing.

Kikyo. She still had a grudge against her since the last encounter. Inuyasha sighed, closing his eyes. Kikyo wanted to take him into Hell with her a couple of months ago, yet the feeling of Kikyo next to him still lingers in his nerves. the feel of her cold lips against his. Maybe he still had feelings for the dead Priestess. But then there was Kagome, the Reincarnation of Kikyo. Kagome not only smells like Kikyo, but resembles her. "...he still loves her..." Her remark made him open his eyes in disbelief, like as if he was staring at an Angel. Kagome smiled. "He still loves her...i don't even know why I even try to get him to like me...maybe I..." Inuyasha leaned forward more. "WAIT, I can't love him...I can't love a man who already has his heart set on another woman...a cold, dead heart..." He started to smell salt. She was crying. Only a little bit. Inuyasha fought the urge to jump down and comfort her. But she would only get madder at him for listening in on her speaking her thoughts. She wiped her eyes, and then continued down the path. Inuyasha jumped down onto the ground and slowly followed after her. The salt smell stayed, so she wasn't stopping. When she reached the well, she stared at it. "Inuyasha..." His mouth opened, about to respond. "Your JUST Inuyasha...but, I like you that way-"

Inuyasha jolted as he saw Kagome react the way she does when she senses a jewel shard fragment. He looked around to see any sing of a demon that was dangerously close to Kagome. His nose picked up a sent of a demon. Kagome felt it coming close so she took her bow and arrow off her back and waited. A gust of wind hit Inuyasha's nose and he hated the smell of the demon. He dashed towards Kagome as a whirlwind appeared and went after her. He stood in front of her and she shrieked. "Inuyasha!" He felt a breeze pass by his cheek and growled. Blood started to spill out of the small minor wound on his cheek.

"Damn you!"

The whirlwind stopped and a wolf demon smiled as he put one hand on his hip and waved slightly. "Hey there, Kagome."

There you go.

This time, I cleaned it up. And I know I promised to update once a week, but you know, it's hard to when you have things to do…and a certain boy to hang out with.

Please Review.
