Anyone know where I can get a job. There are many reasons why I ask. 1: I have to much free time. 2: Other people need to take care of my grandmother during the week lol I love her but taking care of her none stop and gets annoying. 3: I need it desperately!!! 4: Main reason. I just came up with another story for Inuyasha. I know, another Inuyasha story. Well here let me start by saying... I don't own Inuyasha. Now enjoy.
Chapter 1: We're not in Tokyo anymore.
"This is it Naraku! Your going down!" Inuyasha shouted at said man.
"Kukuku. I think not Inuyasha. I will just take young Kagome and be on my way. Now that Kikyo is dead, Kagome is the only one that can see the jewel shards. I will make her one of my puppets. See you around Inuyasha. Kukuku" Naraku said evilly as miasma surrounded him.
"Like HELL you'll take Kagome away!" Inuyasha jumped into the miasma and just before Naraku and Kagome disappeared he grabbed Kagome and landed on his feet. Kagome was bridal style in his arms. Naraku disappeared and Kagome looked fine.
'Thank the gods she's alright.' Inuyasha thought as he stood up.
Miroku, Sango, and Shippo all came over on Kirara to check on her.
"KAGOME!" they all yelled at once.
"She's fine. I got to her before Naraku did anything to her." Inuyasha said calmly never letting go of Kagome.
"I think it would be wise to go to Kaede's to have her looked over, just to be safe." Miroku said.
"That's a good idea Miroku. I'll meet you all there." Inuyasha took off before anyone could say anything else.
"Man he is so impatient." Shippo said from Miroku's shoulder.
"He's just really worried about Kagome is all. Come on let's make camp a little ways away and head out in the morning. If I know Inuyasha. He won't stop until Kagome is at Kaede's and is looked at. He loves her and would do anything for her." Sango said as they turned to the direction that Inuyasha had gone.
XXKag and InuXX
Inuyasha ran all the way to Kaede's. By the time he got there it was close to dark and Kaede was just making dinner.
"Kaede! Do you think you could check Kagome over for me Naraku had his hands on her and I just want to make sure he didn't do anything to her?" Inuyasha said to her, surprisingly in a rather nice way.
"Sure Inuyasha I can take a look at her." Kaede said getting up from her cooking and coming over to Kagome who now lay on a futon.
After a few minutes Kaede could find nothing wrong with Kagome. "She is fine Inuyasha. Will ye be staying to eat dinner?" Kaede asked
"Sure, thank you." Inuyasha said not looking away from Kagome. She still hadn't woken up from when Naraku had her. 'Please wake up soon Kagome.' Inuyasha pleaded in his mind.
As if she read his mind Kagome's eyes began to flutter open. "Inuyasha? Wh-what happened?" Kagome asked
"Naraku grabbed you. He almost got away with you Kagome." Inuyasha said sadly.
"But he didn't Inuyasha. You saved me; I'm alright," Kagome reassured him.
"But..." Kagome put a finger to his mouth, "Please Inuyasha, don't beat yourself up for something you had no control over. Naraku had you pinned when he grabbed me; That much I remember. It wasn't your fault that Naraku tried to kidnap me. What matters is that you saved me and that I'm alright. Okay, so don't beat yourself up." Kagome pleaded with him giving him a puppy dog pout.
"Alright Kagome." Inuyasha did something very un-Inuyasha like. He grabbed Kagome and kissed her. Kagome was shocked for a moment then kissed him back.
They stayed like that till Kaede cleared her throat and they broke apart blushing.
"Am I interrupting something or can ye two keep off each other till after dinner?" Kaede said chuckling at their blushing faces.
After dinner Kaede went to sleep while Inuyasha and Kagome stayed up a little longer. They had known each other for about two years now. Kagome loved Inuyasha more everyday and the kiss that they shared confused her a little. She believed that Inuyasha only loved Kikyo that she was only second in line and that he only liked her. But the kiss got her thinking. 'When he kissed me was he kissing me or Kikyo?'
Kagome snuck a peak at Inuyasha. He was deep in thought. 'I wonder what he's thinking about.'
Inuyasha was looking into the fire but his mind was elsewhere. He could only think of one person; Kagome. 'I was so sure that she was going to push me away when I kissed her. But she didn't. She kissed me back. Does that mean she loves me as much as I love her? What would she say if I asked her to be my mate?'
'Probably say yes. She kissed you back idiot. That means she cares deeply for you.'
'Who are you?' Inuyasha asked in his mind.
'I'm your inner self,' said the voice
'So what makes you think she will say yes and not go off to some other guy?'
'Because numskull, SHE LOVES YOU; God only knows why she would love a half-breed, but she does,' the little voice said
'Fine but if she runs off to some other guy I'm finding a way to kill you then kill Naraku then myself because after I kill Naraku I won't really have any other plans without Kagome by my side; life would lose all meaning.'
Kagome could see the sad look on Inuyasha's face. "Inuyasha? Is something wrong?"
"Huh? Oh.. no Kagome. I'm fine. Why don't you get some rest and we'll head back to your time in the morning." Inuyasha said not taking his eyes off the fire.
"Alright Inuyasha. Good night." Kagome laid down and as soon as her breathing evened out Inuyasha looked at her. 'Kagome. If only we could be somewhere you are safe. Away from Naraku and any other demon that is after you. I don't know if I'm strong enough to protect you. I'm only a worthless, dirty, half-breed. You deserve so much more than me.' Inuyasha thought to himself.
The next morning Kaede made breakfast and afterward Kagome and Inuyasha headed for the well.
Inuyasha looked down the well and something told him that something wasn't right. The well smelt slightly different. It smelt almost peaceful. He pushed the thought out of his mind and climbed up on the lip of the well. "Ready Kagome?"
"Yeah lets go." Kagome said jumping up on to the lip next to Inuyasha.
They jumped in and at first were met with the familiar blue light but it turned to a bright silvery white; so bright that it put Inuyasha hair to shame. The light was almost blinding. They closed their eyes and a few minutes later they were on soft... grass?
Inuyasha was the first one to open his eyes. It was slightly blurry but his eyes soon adjusted. There were many flowers and trees around him. Kagome took that moment to grown. Kagome looked around and saw a small pond in the distance. "Inuyasha, can you take me over to the pond please?" Kagome asked
"Sure." Inuyasha picked her up and brought her to the pond. As they got closer it looked more like a lake then a pond.
Inuyasha set Kagome down next to the lake and she cupped her hands and splashed the water on her face. Inuyasha did the same but he drank the water instead of splashing it on him.
"Well, it looks like we have some new comers." a female voice said from a near by tree.
"Who's there?" Inuyasha threatened.
The female voice only chuckled at him. "I don't believe it. I really don't believe it and yet here you two are." A female jumped down from the tree she was very fit. Her eyes were a bluish-green and she didn't ware any make-up though it looked like she did. She also had tan cat ears on top of her head and a long tan tail as well as sharp claws.
"Who are you?" Inuyasha asked threateningly.
"How very rude of me; my name is Erin. Welcome to Utopia, Kagome Higurashi and Inuyasha Takahashi." Erin said as she turned around and walked towards some mountains.
"How do you know our name's?" Kagome asked as they followed her.
"I will show you. Come with me." Erin said as they walked.
As they got closer to the mountains Inuyasha and Kagome could see caves in the side of the mountains.
"You live in caves?" Kagome asked with a sad look.
Erin giggled at Kagome's reaction. "It's better than it looks. Come on." Erin, Kagome, and Inuyasha went into a cave with the letters EL US above the entrance.
Inside the cave the walls were all smooth. There were many different rooms, but what surprised Kagome and Inuyasha the most. Was that the inside was like Kagome's era. There was indoor plumbing, a bed in one room, furniture and a real kitchen with a stove, a fridge, an oven and a microwave. Shelves, counters, cabinets and drawers cluttered every room along the walls.
"How is this possible?" Kagome asked
"When you find an empty cave, all you have to do is think about what you want the inside to look like. That's what the others and I did," Erin said working around in the kitchen.
"There are more people here?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah. People come in and out of here all the time. When you get here, if you drink or touch the water, or eat the fruit, you are stuck here. Since you both touched the water your stuck here. Sorry. I normally get warnings before someone gets here so I can tell that to them before they do anything but I didn't get the warning till you two were half way here. If I had gotten to you two sooner you could of had a choice. I'm sorry." Erin explained.
"It's ok, you did your best." Kagome said
"Feh'. You never answered Kagome's question. How do you know who we are?" Inuyasha asked
"Well the people here are from everywhere. You came from a dimension with a well that transports Kagome to the feudal era of Japan; while I come from a dimension where you are a television show. A very popular TV show at that." Erin said as she walked out of the kitchen with Cookies and tea.
"We're a TV. show?!" Kagome yelled
"What's a TV show?" Inuyasha asked
Erin turned on the television and played her DVD player. Inuyasha: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass came on and it was at the part where Inuyasha was turning into a demon and Kagome just freed herself from the spell.
After the kissing scene Erin turned it off and looked at them. The two were blushing like mad and wouldn't look at each other.
"That is my favorite scene out of all the episodes that I've seen." Erin said with a giggle.
"So that's how you know who we are? If you don't mind I'll be outside for a little while." Inuyasha said getting up.
"Alright, you can look at the caves and choose one you like." Erin said sitting down next to Kagome. "Me and Kags can just get to know each other better," she said smiling.
Inuyasha walked out and took off to look for a cave; he had an idea.
Erin and Kagome sat and talked for a long time, meanwhile Inuyasha was looking for a cave for him and Kagome. After what they had shared in Kaede's hut he was sure he was right about his feelings for her.
He stopped in front of a cave that looked empty. He slowly walked in but was stopped by a growl. "Who are you?" A male voice said.
"Come out where I can see you and I'll see if you deserve to know my name!" Inuyasha growled back.
A man about eighteen walked out of the shadows. He had long black hair and kawaii black dog ears and his eyes were a chocolate brown.
"What do you want in my home?" The man asked
"I was merely looking for an empty cave. Thought this one was empty!" Inuyasha shot back.
"What a minute. I know you. Your name is Inuyasha, correct?" The man said smiling.
"Yes, How is it you know my name?" Inuyasha asked removing his hand from his sword.
"I'm guessing you ran in to Erin?" The man asked
"Yeah what of it?" Inuyasha asked
"Good old Erin. Knew she wouldn't pass up the chance to meet you and Kagome. Name's Jeremy, I'm a friend of Erin's." Jeremy said holding out his hand.
Inuyasha took his hand off his sword and took Jeremy's. "So how do you know Erin?" Inuyasha asked.
"Well me and her come from the same dimension. Erin was actually the first person here." Jeremy said walking further into the cave.
Inuyasha followed him and was met with the same things that were in Erin's cave just in different areas of the cave.
"So what are you two exactly? You smell like a dog while Erin smells like a cat, but you don't have a demonic aura around you." Inuyasha said sitting down on the couch.
"Cause where not demons. We're merely... hmm. We don't really have a name for what we're called; we just call each other people. There are humans and animals and then Halflings. That's what you can call us. Erin and I are Halflings, a mixture of both animal and human characteristics." Jeremy said with a small smile.
"So this is your home. Do you know where I can find an empty one?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yeah. There are two places that I know for sure. The one near the top of the mountains where most of the battles are and then there's one only a few down from this one. Its sucluded and really big." Jeremy said throwing Inuyasha a water bottle.
"Thanks." Inuyasha said getting up.
"Let me take a wild guess. You drank the water and now you and Kagome are stuck here. Now that your stuck here you are going to tell Kagome your true feelings." Jeremy said with a smile on his face.
"Feh. As if I'd do something like that." Inuyasha said with a scowl.
"Then why are you blushing." Jeremy's grin got wider.
"You are as bad as Miroku. I can tell you like Erin. A little more then you lead on." Inuyasha said with an evil grin of his own.
Jeremy blushed slightly. "Yes I love her, but only as a friend. I could tell her anything at all and know she would understand me."
"Right. You either love someone or you don't so which is it?" Inuyasha prodded.
"I like her as a friend. That's all. You shouldn't even be giving me advice. You love two women and can't choose between them!" Jeremy shot back.
"I am not in love with two woman!" Inuyasha yelled.
"It's true. He only loves one person." A voice from the door said.
The boys turned around. Kagome and Erin were standing in the entry way.
"Kagome?" Inuyasha said quietly.
"I know you love Kikyo Inuyasha I'm sorry I trapped you here and kept you away from her for even longer." Kagome said sadly.
"Kagome, that's not..." Inuyasha tried but was stopped
"No, Inuyasha it is all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to go to the pond for some water we would be home right now and you could still be with Kikyo."
There was a long silence. Then Erin spoke up. "Jeremy could you help me pick some fruit for the salad I'm making for dinner?"
Jeremy looked at her for a moment then nodded. "We'll be back in a minute you guys. Don't destroy my house." Jeremy and Erin ran out the door and left Kagome and Inuyasha to talk.
"Kagome it isn't your fault we are now stuck here." Inuyasha said walking slowly towards her.
"Don't fool yourself Inuyasha. We both know it's my fault. Now I'm the reason you and Kikyo can't be together." Kagome said chest fallen.
"Kikyo; she is the only person keeping me and my love apart." Inuyasha said coming closer to Kagome.
Kagome looked even more down. 'He called Kikyo his love. I knew when he kissed me he was thinking of Kikyo.' A tear ran down her cheek.
"Kagome." He could smell the salt from her tears. "Don't cry. You aren't the reason we aren't together. It's all because of me and my stupid ego. I taught myself that the only way to protect myself from being killed was to keep to myself. You taught me that I could have friends and that not all people are the same; Kagome I don't love Kikyo and I don't mind being stuck here."
Kagome looked up a small tear rolling down her cheek. 'He doesn't love Kikyo?!' Kagome thought in shock.
Inuyasha whipped her tear away and looked in to her brown eyes. "Being here with you, is the greatest thing that could have happened. I wished I could find a place to keep you safe and out of danger. I never wanted you to get hurt Kagome. Naraku never did anything to you. You didn't deserve to fight Naraku. He did nothing to you." Inuyasha said holding her to his chest.
"That's where your wrong Inuyasha. Naraku did hurt me. Not at first but later on I saw how he hurt you. It pained me to see him toy with your heart. In a way he did hurt me, just not directly."
"Kagome." Inuyasha said holding her tighter.
Outside the cave Erin and Jeremy were listening to them.
"I knew all he needed was time alone with her." Erin whispered with a smile.
"You were right. Now, how about that salad? It sounds good right about now." Jeremy whispered with a grin.
Erin giggled and they headed to get the fruit they needed for the salad.
-Elsewhere in a shadowy place-
"Good. Everything is coming along smoothly. I just need to keep that half-demon distracted until it is too late." a deep evil voice said
The owner of the voice looked down into the window like water in front of them. "That girl along with the first two to come to my land will do quite nicely for what I have planed. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
That's it for now. Tell me what you all think and then Ill update… I want at least 5 reviews before I update. Till then, CHOW!
