Chapter 1
Black Haired Hanyou
Kagome climbed out of the well, heaving the heavy yellow backpack up with her.
'Well I got the extra supplies, it should last us at least a week.' She thought, tipping slightly as she swung the oversized backpack onto her back.
'What day is it today? I forgot to check my calendar before I left.'
She knew that it was close to the new moon, but couldn't remember exactly how far away it was. She sighed heavily; something always seemed to happen on those nights, when InuYasha became full human. Her and her friends, Sango, Miroku and Shippo, always made sure he was safe until morning though, so she didn't worry that much any more.
~*~*~*~*~*~
InuYasha sat in the tree near the village, which was a stones throw away from the Bone Eaters Well. His thoughts drifted onto Kagome and settled there peacefully.
'It's so strange. At first, I thought that she exactly like Kikyo . . .'
He opened his eyes and stared at the blue sky, littered with some fluffy white clouds. Then he sighed, remembering white day it was. More like, what night it would be.
'I wish we had the jewel complete, then I wouldn't have to go through this every month . . .'
He sighed again and caught a whiff of a wonderful scent.
Smiling softly, he jumped down from his perch and started making his way back towards the village.
'Kagome . . .'
~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome walked into Kaede's hut and was greeted with a warm, rich fragrance of the burning fire. Breakfast was cooking and smelled delicious!
"Hello child! We didn't think we'd be seeing ye for a couple more days."
Kagome placed her backpack against the wall, "So did I, but my test was rescheduled for next week, so I was free to come back here!"
"Kagome!!!"
Shippo leapt onto Kagome's back and gave her a gigantic hug.
"Oh, hi Shippo!"
The little kitsune hopped onto her shoulder and looked into her eyes.
"We missed you Kagome!"
Kagome smiled and plucked him from her shoulder and placed him gently on the floor.
"I missed you too." She said, rustling his hair lightly.
She looked up as the door flap was pushed open. Sango and Miroku walked in, smiling.
"Kagome! I'm glad you have returned." The monk said.
"Yes, were you supposed to stay a little longer in your time?"
Kagome nodded and explained to them why she was back earlier then expected.
Just as Kagome finished her story again, another person walked through the door.
InuYasha, fighting the urge to run up to her and pull her into his arms, started to say something. But his voice was stopped short of his throat, as she smiled at him.
"Hello InuYasha!" She said, standing up.
He didn't think he could have said anything without it sounding anything less than . . . awkward.
"Are we going or not?" he demanded, finally getting control over his tongue again. Kagome tilted her head to look at him, but didn't say anything.
"What?" he demanded, while edging away slightly.
She shook her head and smiled, making his knees go wobbly.
"Nothing, let's get going!"
A few minutes later they were off and headed due west, towards the ocean. There had been a rumor that a jewel shard had been found there, so that's where they headed.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Soon the day became late and the sun started to make it way back down to earth for it's night's rest. As night approached though, InuYasha became more and more fidgety, 'Damn, I'm starting to loose my senses! Why do I have to start changing from the inside out? I hate being a half demon . . .'
Kagome noticed his mood and began to stare at him.
He caught her glance and shot her a glare.
"What?" he demanded, moving closer when she didn't answer.
She cocked her head slightly,
"InuYasha? Isn't tonight . . .?" she let it hang in the air, waiting for him to catch it. Obviously he didn't when he gave her back a confused look, but luckily Sango caught her hint.
"That's right!" she exclaimed, remembering, "InuYasha, isn't tonight the night of the new moon? The night of the new cycle?"
(A/N Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!!!)
InuYasha wanted to protest, but Miroku chimed in.
"Yes, you're right Sango. I propose we head back to the village, it is safer there."
InuYasha huffed and crossed his arms.
"It's too far to get there before sunset now. It would much safer for all of us if we just stayed put for the night."
~*~*~*~*~*~
In the shadows, a dark figure spied on the small group. It turned away and ran silently back to its master, to inform him of the interesting news . . .
~*~*~*~*~*~
Okay okay! People you all know that I am a very evil person who LOVES to put cliffys in her stories, so sue me! *gasp* OMG!!! I almost forgot!!!! THE DISCLAIMER! *runs to get disclaimer*
