"It's quiet, too quiet," Ayame whispered as she looked around. The young red haired wolf demon could sense something was just not right. She was traveling on her way to deliver a message to a young east pack leader for her gramps and her and her snow white wolves had been traveling for about two days now. But tonight was different, they were in a dense deep forest and though it was a dark night the moon lit the sky and shone in through the spaces in the canopy of trees. The weird thing was though that there was no animals, no birds or even raccoons around, it was as if they were all hiding, and it wasn't from her. One of her wolves whimpered and she put her hand on his head to comfort him. "Don't worry, if anything were to happen to us koga would find us." She said, only she half believed it herself. Why would koga rescue her? She was deeply in love with the wolf demon, and he had once promised to marry her when they were younger. But now he was in love with this kagome girl. I mean what did she have that I don't? But that was a long time ago when they ran into each other from that hair demon. Ayame looked on and walked slowly, putting as least amount of pressure as she could on her feet as not to be detected. There was a rustle to her right and her and her five wolves turned quickly. Only then did she realize it was a trap, when she looked to the noise a net came over her from the left. She yelled for her wolves to run and three of them managed to get free and run in separate directions. She looked around desperately as a gangly band of men stepped out of the bushes. They were all talking at once, she could only catch about half the things they were saying. "This one don't look half bad" "hey baby how ya doing" one of them whistled and they all had nasty grins on their faces. But there was something about these humans, something different. They weren't demons, she was sure of that. And they had strange smelling gear and clothes. The net wasn't normal either; it had some sort of power that was keeping her trapped inside. But they didn't seem all that smart, they looked like normal idiots. Ayame didn't cry but she did get real scared. "What do ya'll want with me?!" she said as bravely as she could. A fat man with a shaved head spoke up, "aw don't worry lil' missy, we won't kill you….yet." they all started laughing as if it were some sort of inside joke. Three of the men then grabbed her and tied her up real tight, and leashed her wolves beside her. The fat one said something under his breath to another one of the gang and the man stood up and walked of into the woods. She looked around at her captors. There were about ten of them and they all looked like rugged homeless bandits to her. The man that walked into the woods earlier now came back holding a big stick in his hand and he was walking straight towards her. She tried to scream but he struck her before she even could. She saw red then black and she fell to the ground unconscious.
KOGA:
Koga ran on in his whirlwind as fast as he could, kagomes scent was near and it had been a little while since they had seen each other. Also he had heard there was some demon behind the full moon that had occurred about a month before. That stupid mutt's smell was clogging in his noise to. He despised inuyasha, mainly because of jealousy, but never the less he knew he was close. He slowed down to a walk and looked behind him. Ginta and Hikaku would catch up eventually. He smiled his wolfish grin and started running again. There was a rather large root sticking out of the ground though that he didn't see and he went spiraling face first into a bush in front of him. As soon as Koga realized what had happened he sat up, still concealed in the bush. He froze as he heard two all too familiar voices coming his way, dog face and Kagome. He stained a little to listen to them. It was inuyasha speaking, "I know what your saying kagome but what you did in the dream castle was, well, the nicest thing anyone had ever done for me. And I'm so glad you did, I don't think I can hide my feelings for you any longer." They had walked into Koga's sight now and the were about ten feet away. Inuyasha had been talking to kagome and had stopped in the middle of his sentence to gaze into Kagome's eyes. Kagome looked shocked and she just turned to look at him. Her hair going over her shoulder and to koga she looked truly beautiful. "Inu-yasha?" she whispered softly. Inuyasha looked down at her than pulled her into his arms rather forcefully as he kissed her. The scene was perfect, the sun setting behind them, the beautiful flowers blooming in the trees. Koga couldn't look away. Don't do it kagome, please! Koga thought, he was heartbroken, it was too much to bear. What did she even see in that mutt? He just stared with wide eyes, jaw dropped. Kagome waited stunned for a minute than she kissed him back. They quit and koga waited for her to slap him, but he waited in vain. "Kagome, I know this is going to sound like what I said a long time ago to Kikyo but when we gather all the shards, I, I'm going to become human. Will you live with me kagome, if I become human, I just can't live without you. And I realized that when you kissed me in the castle. We can still go to your era whenever you want, or even live there if you must but I love you kagome, and I hope you love me to." inuyasha turned away and looked over his shoulder. As if he were scared of what she might say, during his little speech he had yelled some of it as if he really meant it with all his soul. Kagome looked stunned as tears fell down her cheek. She put her hands on his shoulders and looked longingly into his eyes. "Inuyasha!" she yelled crying as she pulled his face to hers, she kissed him fiercely than buried her face in his chest. Koga crawled away, as quietly as he could. He ran then, he ran so fast and so hard tears sprang to his eyes. He ran as far away from those two as he possible could. There was a small pond lit up with fireflies where he had once been before, and he decided that was where he'd go. It took him about another ten minutes to get there and when he did he threw himself on the ground on the edge and just tried not to cry. Tears were falling uncontrollably and he had to suck in his breath a couple times but he didn't cry. He just sat there a bit, to upset to notice anything. Especially not the people on the cliff above, preparing their net.
