Kagome quickly changed into her pajamas then decided to see what Inuyasha was doing/feeling. Once she opened the doorshe found him sitting on the floor with shame in his eyes. He quickly glanced at her when she opened the door with the look in his eyes.
KagomeI'm very sorry. I didn't mean to barge in. I should've knocked." Inuyasha said as he stood up.
"Um...Its ok I guess. You didn't do it on purpose and you did apologizedKagome said feeling a little awkward. "Let's just pretend that nothing happened, okay?" you said.
"Okay. I'm really sorry though!" Inuyasha said.
Inuyasha...just drop it." Kagome said as she started to head down stairs. Inuyasha quickly followed her like a golden retriever. Once she got down stairs she saw that everyone was enjoying their presents.
"What was all of the commotion about? Is everything okay, I heard, Kagome scream?" Haji said looking at both of them.
"Umm... yaI just saw a spider." she said quickly thinking of something.
Don't worry, Inuyasha got it." she said with a fake smile.
"Wow. You're more like a girl then I would've thought, Kagome." Sesshoumaru said teasing.
"WHAT'D YOU SAY, SESSHOUMARU?! DONT MAKE ME COME OVER THEIR AND BEAT YOU TO A PALP!!" she yelled at him. That comment ticked her off.
That's my, Kagome!" Sesshoumaru said with a smile.
"You sure can tick me off, Sesshoumaru." Kagome said as she plopped down on a lounge chair. Yuki just laughed at the both of them along with Haji and Inuyasha
"What is so funny? So what. I'm scared of spiders, big deal." Kagome said trying to ignore them. "This is all your faultSesshoumaru
"How is it my fault." Sesshoumaru asked.
You're the one making a big deal of me being aafraid of spiders. I don't see how that makes me less tough?" she said back.
"I would seriously like to see you fighting a spider type Chamara." Sesshoumaru laughed. That sent shivers down her spine.
"Are there seriously such a thing?" she asked.
"Now I think you've gone to far, Sesshoumaru. Look at her. She's terrifiedYuki said.
"A-am not!" Kagome said trying to hold back her shaking.
"Come on, Kagome. You can't hide it." Inuyasha said. Then the laughing died down a little bit. Sesshoumaru was the only one laughing still.
You said nothing. 'I knew I should've said something else besides a spider. I HATE those creepy crawly monsters. With those eyes and those legs.ugh' she thought.
Before she knew it Kagome had fallen asleep. The sound of the guys talking woke her up a little but she was too tired to open her eyes or get up to walk to her room. All she wanted was sleep. Then she heard one of the guys whisper.'Are you sure? Why now of all times? Damn it!" that was Haji
"SHH! She's still sleeping! Yuki maybe you should take her up stairs." that was Inuyasha
"Alright." At that moment she felt him pick her up then place her on her bed. Now she knew was the only time to ask.
"What is going on? Is it a Chamara? Just give me a moment and Ill be readyShe said as she hopped down.
"Yes, but it's a spider type. You should just stay here and sleep." Yuki said as he picked her up again and back down on the bed.
"Oh. Well, this is my chance to conquer my fear and also try out Ryuuken. I'vegot to at least try." Kagome said as she hopped down once again.
"Alright, but promise me that once you get scared or cant do anything then let me know." Yuki said with a sigh.
"I promise. Just give me a few minutes and Ill be out." She said as she shut the door to her walk-in closet.
Within a minute or so Kagome were out and ready. She quickly splashed water on her face to wake her up, then grabbed Ryuuken. "Here we go, Ryuuken. You ready?" she sighed then headed down stairs. Everyone was waiting near the front door.
"Has it come yet? Or is it coming?" she asked as she rushed to where they were standing.
"No. It's waiting for us. It's just standing there at the clearing in the middle of the woods just waiting to fight." Haji said as he reached for the handle of the door. "Let's go.
Once they all reached the clearing the place was covered in giant spider webs. A shiver started to form but she stopped it. Kagome wanted to fight. She wanted the fear to go away.
"So where is the damn thing?" you asked.
"Right here, sweetheart." It whispered in her ear. She quickly turned around and there it was standing. It wasn't what she thought it would look like; with 8 arms or eyes. It wasn't even hairy. The Chamara looked like any normal human. The only strange thing was that his hair looked like the pattern you once saw of a tarantula on TV; black with red strips. He even had a few threads of web hanging from his mouth.
"Of course, I wouldn't be able to tell of whether or not your heart is sweet. Let's find out, shall we?" the Chamara asked.
That moment she wanted to run but instead she drew out Ryuuken and stood in her ready position.
"Lets not and say we did, Chamara. I would much rather dissect you." she said as she braced Ryuuken.
"Oh, Ho! Feisty thing are we? Don't try to hide it, I can see you shaking from here. Scared of a little ol' spider? Let's see how far you can go!" the Chamara said as he spat out web at her.
"Don't make me laugh! I'm shaking from excitement, not fear." she lied. Kagome dodged the web easily thanks to Sesshoumaru's training the other day. She took a deep breath then went at him with out luck. Kagome went to turn around but she noticed that her feet were stuck on a platform of web.
"Shit!" she said to herself.
Kagome! Damn you Chamara!" Sesshoumaru said as he turned into a giant bird. He looked like a deep red Phoenix. He lounged at him but just ended up in the same position.
"Damn it, Sesshoumaru!" Inuyasha yelled as he turned into his were-wolf self. Haji and Yuki joined in.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you! You don't want the girl to get hurt do you?" The Chamara said as he went to her side and licked Kagome's cheek then took away Ryuuken. "You don't want anything bad to happen now do we?" the Chamara said with a smile.
"Give that back, damn it!" Kagome yelled.
"Damn you Chamara!" Sesshoumaru yelled from his position in the web across from Kagome's.
"Now, now. Let's not use such fowl language. And another thing, I would like you to address me to my name instead of calling me Chamara. My name is Gin, got that?!" he yelled.
"Now about that mouth of yours, what was it now? Oh ya! KagomeGin said as he placed a glob of web on her mouth. Kagome wanted to freak but the web stopped that from happening. She tried to pull it off but it wouldn't budge.
Kagome Don't you DARE harm her, GinInuyasha growled, baring his canine teeth.
"Oh! I just got an idea. Let's see what you'll do if I do this." Gin said as he licked her cheek again. Inuyasha glared at him with rage.
"DAMN YOU! I TOLD YOU-" Inuyasha said getting cut off.
"Now, now. Let's not go too far." Gin said as he stuck InuyashaHaji, and Yuki each to a separate tree. Once that was done he did the same to Kagome but completely on a web on between two trees. She tried to wiggle out of it but the threads were too strong. Fear started to make its way to the surface of her mind.
"I am very curious on how your heart tastesKagomeI'm very tempted to see what it tastes like. Your face is very tasty but what about your heart?" he said once again licking her cheek, but this time it burned. Kagome wanted to scream in pain but the webbing prevented that. Inuyasha, Haji, Sesshoumaru, and Yuki all saw the pain in her eyes.
"You know this isn't much fun with out the screaming. Let's hear the scream of pain, my favorite sound." Ryan said as he took off the webbing.Kagome let out a big scream for both the pain of him taking off the webbing and her burning cheek. The guys looked pissed. She saw in the corner of her eye that Yuki turned himself into a shadow, Sesshoumaru was turning himself into something different, and Haji and Inuyasha were trying to bust out of the webbing.
"Aww does it burn, KagomeIt's just that you're so tasty I couldn't help but let some of my poison drip out." Gin laughed. Then he stuck one of his fingers in his mouth then dripped the poison onto hercollarboneKagomeimmediately let out another scream. She couldn't take it anymore; all she wanted was for the pain to stop and this damn bug to die.
"Damnyou tohell She said grimacing at the pain.
"Oh, Kagome what are you going to do about it?" Gin laughed.'If only I could get Ryuuken...' she thought. At that moment she noticed Ryuuken started to shake. She thought to herself that some how Ryuuken was attached to her so she called to it. "RYUUKEN!!"Kagome yelled. Ryuuken then flew towards her and luckilypierced through the Chamara.
"GAHHH!! Why you..." Gin said before he fell over dead.The webs went slack and Kagome and the guys were able to jump down.
"How'd you do that, KagomeInuyasha asked.
"Well, first I was thinking of a way to get to Ryuuken and saw that when I thought of it it shook like it was trying to reach me so I just yelled out its name hoping that it would come." Kagome said as she was getting off the stray web threads.
"So you figured it out. Well done." Sesshoumaru said. She just looked at him, shocked that he actually commented her.
"What? Can't I be nice sometimes?" Sesshoumaru asked looking pissed.
"I guess but it's really weird when you do." She said.
"Fine, I take it back." Sesshoumaru said looking all pissed off.
"Alright you two, enough. Let's go home." Yuki said coming in between themKagome picked up Ryuuken and started to walk home. She was in a really bad mood.
Once they got home Kagome ran up stairs to take shower. The warm water felt really good on her sore body and especially her cheek and collarbone. When she got out Kagome saw that she was in there for a whole hour. She got dressed and headed down stairs. The guys looked like they were waiting for her.
"How are you feeling, Kagome? Does your cheek and collarbone feel alright?" Yuki asked as he put some sort of cream on her cheek.
I'm okay. The shower helped out a lot so don't worry." She said as he handed her the cream to put on her collarbone. The cream felt cool when it was rubbed into her skin like it had been in the freezer but yet it felt warm.
"Hay, Kagome. Looks like you concurred your fear." Sesshoumaru teased."Oh, shut the hell up, SesshoumaruShe said handing Yuki back the cream. Sesshoumaru just laughed. Then the phone rang. Haji quickly answered it.
"I didn't know you had a phone." Kagome said.
"Ya, but we only use it for emergencies." Inuyasha answered.
"WhatI'm coming over...I don't care, I'm coming over whether you people like it or not." Haji said before hanging up the phone. "I'm leaving. Ill be back in a few hours."
"What's wrong, Hajishe asked getting in his way.
"Its, Sasuke He's dying. Now, get out of my way!" he yelled pushing her out of the way.
"I'm going with you. I promised Id seeSasuke yesterday." she said grabbing her sweater.
"Fine, but we're going my way." he said putting her on his back and dashing out the door like last time they went out. The next thing she noticed was that she was in the ally next to the hospital.
"Hurry up or I'm leaving you." Haji said fast walking to the entranceKagome quickly caught up with him. Inside they took the stairs. Haji said that it was faster, which it surprisingly was.
In Sasuke's room he looked very cold and lifeless. Kagome glanced at Haj, he didn't look so great. He looked like he was helpless.
Sasuke?" he said.
Sasuke opened his eyes. He looked so weak it hurt to see him in that condition.
"Hay guys.What's up?" Sasuke said with a small smile.
"Nothing much. How are you feeling?" Kagome said trying to hold back tears.
"I'm okay. The angel visited me last night. She said I was going to die today. Looks like I'm going to get what I wanted after all." Sasuke said as a tear fell.
Sasuke...Promise me that when you get to heaven. Tell my grandmother I said 'Hi'." She said as a tear fell.
"Kay. Haji, can you promise me that you wont sulk when I'm gone."
"Tsk...Alright. Tell May I said 'Hi' as well." Haji said as he sat on the bed.
"You know I will." Sasuke said wiping away his tears. "You guys are great. Thanks for being my friends." Sasuke said as he drifted to sleep.
"No problem, KidKagome said wiping away a tear.Then his heart monitor went dead. The nurse that was standing in the corner covered up his lifeless body.
"Poor, thing Didn't even have a mom or dad." she muttered.
"Excuse me, I was wondering if we could have the body. We were his only family and we know of a spot to lay him to rest." Haji said turning to the nurse.
"Oh, of course." she said as she walked out the door.
At the funeralKagome wasn't being much of a dress kind of girl, so she wore a tux) she and the guys stood around the grave. Then it started to snow. Kagome tried to hold back the tears but a few escaped. The guys tried to comfort her but she knew that she wasn't the one who needed it. Haji just stood there like time had stopped. He looked so sad Kagomecouldn't help but set her hand on his shoulder
Haji, this must be so hard for you. Is there anything I can do?" she asked feeling helpless.
"Ya, don't go and do anything stupid. I don't want you to get hurt too." Haji said with out looking away from the grave.
"Okay. Hay, think of it like this. At least they're not suffering." she said just above a whisper.
"Ya, I guess so." he said with no expression.
"Come on. The storm is starting to get worse." Inuyasha yell back at themKagome turned to see the others started to leave.
"Damn its cold." Sesshoumaru said shivering.
"You're cold? Can't you just turn-" she said getting cut off as he turned into a shaggy goldenretriever Kagome couldn't help but laugh. She just couldn't see Sesshoumaru as a golden retriever.
"WHATS SO FUNNY?!" he barked.
"Nothing...Nothing at all."Kagome said wiping a tear she laughed so hard.
Back at home she went to her room to get in some warmer clothing; she was freezing. When she came back down Yuki had made everyone some hot chocolate. Kagome sat down in a soft fluffy arm chair thatshe had proclaimed as "hers". When she took a sip she could taste that he had made it with vanilla, caramel, and a very sweet chocolate.
"Wow, this is awesomeYuki!" Kagome exclaimed.
"Thank you. Its may own recipe." he said with a smile. She took another sip and let the drink set in her mouth taking it all in. She took a look around out of boredom and saw that Haji was not in the room.
"Where's Haji?" you asked
"Um…he went to bed early." Yuki said pouring himself a cup.
"Ugh!" Kagome said as she set the cup on the side-table and marched up stairs ready to beat Haji to a pulp. 'He promised he wouldn't sulk.' she thought. She found his room at the end of the hall and barged right in. He was just laying on his window sill sulking and didn't even notice her.
"God damn it, Haji You said you wouldn't sulk! What the hell are you doing?!" Kagome said as she turned him around to face her
"Sorry...I can help it. It's just that...their all gone." he said turning away.
"sigh Haji, come on. You still have all of the guys and well, me. I also don't think Sasuke or your sister would want you to be like this. If I were them I would want the people who were precious to me to be happy." she said sitting down next to him. He just looked at her with shock.
"I guess your right. Thanks, Kagome." he said smiling at her
"No problem. All of you guys are the closest thing to family to me; I have to look out for you all." After talking to himthey headed down stairs and sat in her chair crossing her legs
The days rolled by and before she knew it it was the day before Christmas Eve She had already done her shopping. She bought Inuyasha a new CD, Haji a freakingawesome t-shirt she heard he wanted, Sesshoumaru a sword buffer, and Yuki the 4 vol. of The Raven (he already read vol.2 and 3). The house was decorated REALLY nice like it was ready for a Christmas party or something. She loved to just sit in the chair in her room in front of the fire place and look at the tree at night (yes a Christmas tree in her room for those people who didn't understand or what-not). Finally it was Christmas Eve and Kagome was so excited
"I CANT WAIT!!" Kagome said walking down stairs after waking up.
"I see you're in a good mood." Inuyasha said looking up from his CD player.
"Hell I am!! I'm so excited" she said plopping down on her chair.
"Your happy mood is starting to freak me out." Sesshoumaru said as he was flipping through channels on their wide screen TV
"Oh shut the hell up, Sesshoumaru. I can be as happy as I want." Kagome said sticking out her tongueHe just laughed and went back to finding a station he liked.
Kagome, go get ready. We have a surprise for you." Haji said getting up.
"But it's not evenChristmas yet." She said confused.
"We know but this is the only day that we can do it." Inuyasha said grabbing his jacket.
"OK...Ill be down in a minute." she said looking at them all confused.She went to her closet and found a black long sleeve shirt and pants, grabbed her winter jacket, scarf and boots (it was suppose to be pretty cold that day) and ran down stairs. The guys were in their winter stuff and waiting, and Sesshoumaru who was a German shepherded
Soon they all were in town and there stood the giant Christmas tree. Then she remembered that today was the Christmas Eve celebration. They had a fair and everything, the whole town was decorated.
They all made sure to ride every ride. Sesshoumaru even turned into himself so he could join in. Kagome had so much fun. Before she knew it it was 6:00 and time for the fireworks. The guys made sure to get the best seats. Sesshoumaru almost got into a fight to get them but luckily the others stopped him. The fireworks were amazing; the finale was 10x better. After the fireworks they headed home.
"That was so much fun!" she yelled.
That's good. We hoped you would enjoy it." Haji said.
"I did. The last time I went was with Saya-san but because she had something wrong with her back that day it wasn't as fun... Don't worry I'm fine." Kagome said knowing the guys were about to apologize for having to bring up Saya-san.Then it started to snow. They all took their time to get home so she could enjoy the sight. Then Haji just stopped.
What's wrong, Ty?" she asked turning to see him.
"Blood...I smell blood." he said. He looked like he was about to go crazy or something.
Haji, get control of yourself German shepherd Sesshoumaru said.
"I cant...I needblood." he said as he started to shake.
What's wrong with him?" Kagome asked.
"Damn it! He's starting to get out of control. Kagome, I want you to go home." Inuyasha said pointing to the house.
"Okay. Ill keep an eye out for what the smell is coming from." she said before taking off. Kagome looked around and finally found what Haji must have smelled. It was a body. It looked like it got attacked by a very powerful bear or something.
"Are you a live sir? Sir, can you hear me?" Kagome said as she shook the body.
"Uhhg" was all the man said.
I'm going to help you. Don't worry." She said as she grabbed his arm and put it around her shoulder.
Kagome knew she had to do something about the blood so she ran home.At home she set the man on the floor in front of the fire place and went to grab the first aid kit. She quickly patched him up then grabbed a box of matches and ran back to him.
"Ill be right back. Don't worry." Kagome said placing a blanket around him.
Thhhankkkk yoouu." he shivered.
She quickly ran back to the spot and lit a match a set the bloody snow a flame. It surprised her that it burned;she thought it was from the blood so she just left it at that. After the blood burned Kagome ran back to the house to the man.
