A blue light engulfed her, and she found herself running from mistress centipede the next moment. There was only one problem; she didn't know where the heck she was! She saw the forest nearby and ran for it hoping she would lose the darn thing, but no it only slowed her down. Oh how the hell did I get myself into this kind of trouble she thought as she ran? Kagome started to grow tired and a little sweat started to form on her hairline, but she couldn't stop. If she stopped it would mean her death.
Kagome took a turn and found herself running on even softer land, oh this was not her day. Everywhere she turned to run the land seemed to get softer. She could feel her lungs gasping for air and her feet slowly giving out on her. Oh man this really must be the end for me she thought. But in that one little moment it took for Kagome to lose her concentration on were she was going, she tripped over a tree root. Oh Kami, I'm so sorry for being mean to my brother, disobeying my mom, and stealing the last cookie from the jar! She silently repented as she waited for her death to follow. Instead she forced herself to open her eyes and… there was some one fighting the mistress centipede.
"The names Kouga" the man said as he gave her a side glance.
"K-Kouga" she silently repeated to herself as she watched the man fight with the centipede.
Little did she know that he heard her, and it quite amused him. He made quick work of mistress centipede and walked over to Kagome. Kagome was still in shock after the centipede was dead and didn't notice the approaching Kouga. "So, you got a name?" He asked her.
"H-huh?" he had grabbed her attention from whatever it was she was thinking about.
"I said do you have a name? Or should I just call you Huh." He joked at her.
"Oh um… my name is… Kagome." She said. It was obvious she had her mind on other things.
The moon started to come out, and a pack of wolfs was heard howling at it. Of course this made Kagome scared "Oh no! There are wolfs out! We're in danger! We have to get inside!" Then it hit her… I don't even know were I am… and I have nowhere to go either… now I wish that mistress centipede DID eat me. She thought as a look of depression spread across her face.
Kouga saw the girls face and couldn't help but wonder what was wrong. So he decided he better take her to her home, which is something he normally wouldn't do. "Hey listen where do you live, I'll take you back to your place." He stated more than asked.
"I'll probably be living in that rotten tree tonight" she responded while pointing to a hollow tree.
He raised his eyebrow "What happened to your home?" he asked.
"I don't know…" was her simple answer.
"Well why you don't come spend the night at my place" Kouga generously offered.
Kagome couldn't help but give him a suspicious stare.
"Don't worry it's not just me, and there are girls there too." He said to reinsure her.
Kagome looked down and realized that she was a filthy mess, and needed a shower "Umm…Okay"
She told him as she was playing with her fingers. She was still nervous around him, but that was okay since he was a stranger that appeared from nowhere. Kouga approached Kagome and easily picked her up into his arms and as he did so Ginta and Hakkaku showed up "Boss we got the…" They trailed off as they saw what Kouga held in his arms Oh man the boss got a human for dinner they thought as their mouths started to drool. Kouga quickly gave them a death stare and told them "Go ahead and inform everyone that we will be having a guess tonight" he ordered them.
Kouga looked down to see how Kagome reacted and found that she fell asleep. He smirked at the sight he held in his arms. He used his demon speed to reach his den after a few errands. When he got there all the girls squealed in delight as they saw the little human their leader had decided to take in "I will leave her in your care, her name is Kagome." Kouga told the girls. One of the girls named Hana stepped forward and took the girl from Kouga's arms. As quickly as they had been there they retreated to the girls den in the back of the main den. Hana placed Kagome down on some bedding and called for Yuki "Yuki what do you think you can do?"
Yuki's simple reply was "Blue?"
"Ahh yes blue will do" Hana said as she stared at the girl.
Yuki went into a side room and started working on a blue kimono that was covered with pink sakura petals. The obi was black and plain. Yuki was a talented seamstress and as a result was done with the kimono in half an hour. In addition she made a hair piece for the young girl to wear also.
While Yuki was making the kimono the girls decided that Kagome needed a bath, and they would give one to her. Once again Hana picked Kagome up; she walked over to the indoor spring and told the girls to take Kagome's clothing off. Once they took the clothes they considered to be whore-ish off they got confused on how to take her undergarments off. They called in a demoness named Miko, who was always able to solve the most difficult problems, to take the undergarments off.
Miku looked at the contraption that was over Kagome's breast and gently flipped Kagome over and found the clasp for it. She gently undid the clasp and held the bra up in triumph to show the girls. Of course all the girls' ooed at how she got the contraption off. They proceeded to take her panties off and carry her over to the water. Gently one of the demons, named Cyzarine, scrubbed Kagome's back. Kagome slowly started to wake to the soothing water. When she opened her eyes she saw many girls in the room Tails…? She thought. Then Miku spoke up "Hello Kagome, are you feeling better?"
Kagome thought she was dreaming there was no way she was actually here! Especially with girls who had tails! Then Kagome realized that it was NOT a dream, these girls DID have tails, and…she was naked taking a bath with them!? Kagome screamed from embarrassment and fainted. The girls proceeded to get her in her new kimono and lay her in some bedding then went to dinner.
At dinner all the girls who had mated sat with their mates and all the girls who were not mated sat in a group near by. Kouga approached Hana and asked her "Did you take care of the girl?"
Hana happily replied "Of course we did, we also got a new kimono for her. But she fainted so she will not join us for dinner today." she said.
"Please be sure to take her some food after dinner." Kouga said as he left to go back to his original spot.
Dinner soon ended and all the girls returned to the girls den to find Kagome up and looking into a rock that's job was somewhat of a mirror. The girls giggled as Yuki said "So I take it you like your kimono."
"Oh thank you very much, I simply adore it. How can I ever pay you back, it looks so expensive." Kagome started to panic.
"Don't worry about paying for it. It cost us nothing, I made it myself." Yuki stated proudly.
Hana stepped forward and handed a piece of meat to Kagome "Here you must be hungry, eat."
Kagome looked at the piece of meat blankly and said "Umm… How am I supposed to eat it if it's not cooked?"
Hana mentally kicked herself as she said "Oh I'm so sorry! I forgot, you're not like us."
"Like you?"
"Yeah, this is the wolf demon tribe. Our leader Kouga brought you here after he found you and saved you from mistress centipede." (A/N: Let's say that during dinner he filled the tribe in on the details. Kay?)
Hana took the meat and handed it to Cyzarine "Will you please go cook this?" she asked sweetly. Obvious she didn't want to do it.
After Cyzarine had come back with the cooked meat all the demoness' introduced themselves.
"So it looks like you don't have a home." Cyzarine said to a now calm Kagome.
"Well in a way, yeah I don't have a home." she said getting a little bit sad.
"Well why don't you stay here at the wolf den?" Miku asked in a cheerful way.
"Yeah we could ask Kouga to let you stay, you're already our friend. You also don't act like your better than us, but rather equal in status. Unlike other humans." Cyzarine carried on.
"Oh I couldn't do that to you guys" Which was partially true but she also had to find out how to get home. She couldn't stay here for the rest of her life!
"Well its not like you have anywhere to go," Hana started. "And now since the presence of the Shikon no Tama and been told of by the elders many demon will be out to look for it. It won't be safe for you to be out there."
Kagome was thinking about it Well, it's true… I really don't have anywhere else to go as she was thinking she remembered her grandpa telling her of the Shikon jewel and how it was hunted by many. That's when it hit her Grandpa told me that the Shikon made its last appearance in the feudal era! I must be in feudal Japan! And now it really hit her, there was no way she was probably ever going to get home. Her stomach sunk as she looked at the demoness' "I'll take you up on your offer."
She said plainly.
The demoness' were happy and giggled with joy.
"But it wont be permanent, only till I can get a real home of my own." Kagome said.
"Don't worry, you're probably gunna be welcome to stay for the rest of your life, that s if you want to." one of the demoness' reassured her.
Kagome would sleep with Miku until they could get her proper bedding in the morning. In the morning Hana went to ask Kouga if Kagome could be accepted into the wolf tribe. Kouga had no problem with it as long as she could pass her test. "Test? You actually have one of those now, Kouga?"
"Yes, as a matter of fact I do."
"Well what will she have to do?"
"Why should I tell you? Then you would train her specially for the test." Kouga said as he walked away.
Hana came back to the girls den to tell Kagome that she could be part of the tribe on one condition.
"Condition?" Kagome asked
"You must pass a test, but he wouldn't tell me what kind of test so I cant help you." Hana said a bit disappointed with herself.
"When will I have the test?"
"After breakfast"
When the girls were done talking they proceeded to take a bath and go to breakfast. At breakfast Kouga stood up "I would like to announce that today after breakfast we will have a test for the young girl here, to be initiated into the wolf den. For her test, since she is a human, she will be fighting a small demon. Anything you would like to say, young woman?" Kouga suddenly put the attention on her.
She was shocked, she hadn't expected that! What would she say! She slowly stood up and began to talk "Umm… I would just like to say that umm… its an honor to get the chance to be tested for initiation into the wolf den." she said sheepishly.
The wolf clan cheered, obviously happy with her, as she sat down. As Kagome continued with her breakfast she over heard one of the male wolfs saying to another, and what he said didn't please her "Heh, I don't think that this girl will pass the test. The only useful human is a miko; she on the other hand is useless."
It hurt Kagome to hear someone say that about her. But no! She would prove that she wasn't useless! So in her mind it was decided No matter what I'm going to defeat the demon they send my way. I will prove I'm not useless!
Breakfast soon ended and Kagome found herself in front of a pen in which she would fight the monster with. It was more a little battle ring than a pen. Kouga made her pick a weapon she would want to use. She chose a bow and arrow seeing that it would be better, she had taken classes in her time, and also it would be a long distance range and she would escape with almost no injuries if she played her cards right.
The male wolfs had caught a snake demon, almost the size of Kagome, for the test. They dragged I into the area in a bag and waited for Kouga's orders.
In a small room onside the arena walls Kagome was being fitted into a battle armor. It was difficult seeing as one was too big, one was too small, and one was too heavy. Finally they decided to just use leather armor on her. "Are you guys sure about this?" Kagome nervously asked.
"Positive. If you can't handle it Kouga will end the match." Miko re-ensured.
The door opened and Kagome stepped into the arena. She held her bow ready and the quiver of arrows strapped around her shoulder. She looked at the cage in which the snake demon was kept, and it didn't look happy. Then she heard a voice "Kagome, do not worry. I will protect you."
Kagome looked around frantically for the voice, but to no avail. She wondered who that woman could be… or where she could be. Then she heard another voice, this time it was Kouga's "If you have no objections I think we will start the match."
Kagome just looked up and could only nod in agreement. She had to get this over with or she wouldn't have anywhere to live until she found out how to get back home.
The snake demon was released and Kagome instantly readied herself. She had her arrow ready to be shot and started to aim for the demon. She was about to let the arrow go when the demon suddenly shot its poison from its fangs at her. She quickly dodged, but got some of the poison on her shoe. The second she tried to take a step the shoe wouldn't move away from the ground. She tried hard to make it budge but it refused. She needed to move and move now! The snake was charging at her when she decided that a shoe was nothing over her own life. She slipped the shoe off and ran. She readied another arrow in the bow and shot it. For a brief second she thought she saw some dust fly off the arrow, you know kind of like fairy dust. At least that's how she described it. The arrow hit the snake in the back and did little damage.
The snake started charging again, this time infuriated at the young girl. She shot another arrow and this time the dust was more like a light, it briefly flickered and then disappeared. Of course Kouga noticed this Well this is certainly getting interesting he thought to himself. Demons and demoness' of the wolf tribe that were watching were amazed and started to talk amongst themselves. They started to say things like "Wow did you see that! I think she is a miko!" "Hmm… if she is a miko then she would be an excellent addition to the tribe." and some of the males even said "Wow she's powerful, I think when she becomes part of the tribe I'll put a claim on her." Kouga heard every comment his tribe made, and was infuriated when he heard the young un-mated males say they would put a claim on her.
As the arrow hit the snake on its head it started thrashing wildly. Kagome took this opportunity to shoot three more arrows at the demon doing a lot of damage considering she hit the dam thing on its head. She had started running to the left of the demon to shoot his eye when she stepped on a sharp rock "Ow! Ow ow ow ow ow!" she cried as she soothed her foot. Suddenly the snake stopped thrashing around and once again spat its poison at Kagome. She tried to dodge but it hit her leg, binding her to the ground. She stumbled to get her bow and arrows when the snake shot her arms also. She was totally helpless against this demon now. She struggled to get free but to no avail. The snake slowly approached her bearing its fangs ready to eat her.
Everyone watching pleaded for Kouga to go help her, but he refused. Kagome braced herself and shut her eyes tight ready to die. Then she heard the voice again "Kagome…"
Kagome responded in her mind "Help me please!"
"Kagome, think of the most pure thing you've ever seen in your life."
"W-what do you mean?"
"Awaken yourself now and kill the demon…" The voice trailed off and left a confused Kagome.
Kagome thought hard of the purest thing she had ever seen. Then it came to her! The purest thing she had ever seen was her brother a day old. He was pure, untouched by the evils of the world. She thought of her brother and put his one-day-old image in her mind. The snake approached and the second it was within five feet of her a bright light covered Kagome and the demon. The demon shrieked in pain and disintegrated, along with the poison mess it made. The crowed stared in awe, she had actually defeated the demon and purified it! The second the light disappeared Kagome was seen standing in the arena. She heard the voice again "Good job Kagome, you have awoken yourself"
"What do you mean" Kagome asked.
But there was no response to her question. Then Kouga started to speak to everyone "I am proud to announce that the test has been passed. Please welcome the newest member of the wolf tribe Kagome." The crowed cheered.
Some time later (about 2:00pm) Kagome had emerged from a meeting she had with Kouga , regarding the tribe rules and what not. Kouga had Hana get Kagome some wolf tribe clothing. (Hers are similar to Ayame's but are brown in color like Kouga's) Kagome took a sigh of relief she finally had someplace to call home until she figured out how to get to her own time. But for some reason she had a feeling even if she had the chance she would most likely want to stay right here.
