Inuyasha and Kagome fought this strange demon for what seemed like hours. It wouldn't stay down. It would keep coming back on it's feet. Kagome, his friend and secret love. Her long black hair was pulled back due to the wind pushing it in her face. He had trouble trying to think on the battle at hand. Sango and Miroku, his other good friends were gone to another village for the week to fight off a demon. Kagome shot an arrow, hoping to get the demon off course of the village.
It worked. But it went to attack her now. Inuyasha charged at the demon. His sword couldn't or wouldn't transform for some reason. It had to be the presents of the demon that's here. It's sealing off the transformation of his father's fang. He jumped on the demon's back, dug his claws into the skin. The demon, growled and tried to throw Inuyasha off. But it was a failed attempt. Inuyasha called for Kagome to run. But she wouldn't. She kept firing arrows at the demon. Hoping to purify it. The only thing it would do to Inuyasha was turn him human. So it shouldn't kill him.
Inuyasha screamed out "Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!" And slashed at the demon.
It howled in pain as it finally threw Inuyasha off. Inuyasha landed on his feet with his grace and a smirk on his face. His long silver hair blew in the wind. The sleeves of his robe of the fire rat too, blew in the wind. He growled deadly. Trying to draw it's attention to him. There was one thing on his mind though. 'Why does this thing look like a wolf... But doesn't bare the scent of one?'Inuyasha shook his head. There was no time to be thinking on that now.
Charging again with his claws, he screamed out "Blades of Blood!"
The demon hissed in pain. And charged at Inuyasha with a great speed. Inuyasha, didn't know that this kind of speed was possible. It was even faster then Sesshoumaru. Inuyasha managed to jump in the tree. To hide, which was something he hated to do. He had to think of a plan to destroy this thing and fast. But this thing was just too fast damn it! Inuyasha growled low, but sadly, the wolf-like-demon heard it. And charged at the tree he was hiding in.
Inuyasha jumped from his perch and started to run. "Kagome! Get out of here! It isn't safe here for you!" He screamed.
Kagome shook her head saying "I won't leave you alone Inuyasha! This is our fight!"
Inuyasha sighed. Kagome was more stubborn then himself sometimes. That's one of the reason's why he loves her. But, felt like he could never have her. Shaking his head of these thoughts, he had to focus on the fight at hand. But, then he heard Kagome scream. The demon was going after her. "NO!" Screamed Inuyasha. He ran toward her at a speed he never did before. As soon as he ran to her, he picked her up, only to get grabbed by his arm. By the demon's fangs. After that, everything was a blur for Inuyasha.
Kagome had been taking care of Inuyasha for at least three days now. He had passed out after the battle. After that strange bite from that strange demon... He kept fighting. No matter how much pain he was in. He still fought. The demon though, it ran away. Inuyasha ended up fainting right after that. And hadn't woken up since. And, Kagome was starting to get worried about him. It wasn't normal for him to be out cold this long from an attack.
He had suffered far worse then a bite from a demon and was alright. But this time... He wasn't. He would panic in his sleep. Get high fevers, cold sweat. Clammy skin. Kagome placed her hand on his forehead, hoping to calm his nerves. His head turned to the side, moaning in pain. Was the demon venomous? No, that couldn't be right. Inuyasha can't get poisoned easily. That just isn't possible for him. Kagome leaned close whispering "it's going to be okay Inuyasha. You'll be alright. I'm here."
Inuyasha grunted "Ka... go... me..."
Kagome held his hand saying "that's right Inuyasha. I'm here. I won't leave you..."
His only responds was another moan of pain.
Kagome looked at his shoulder and saw that the wound still hadn't healed yet. He's half demon and yet, the wound hadn't healed. Was this normal? No... He always healed. Kagome sighed and laid her head next to his. She didn't want to leave him. He just... He looks so vulnerable... She's never seen that look on him before, and it frightened her. Kagome looked at his face once more, to see his eyes slowly open. Kagome sat up straight and whispered "Inuyasha?"
He blinked his golden eyes only start screaming in pain. Trying to grip his wounded shoulder. Kagome grabbed his arm saying "you have to lie still! You have to heal Inuyasha! Please! Stop this!"
Inuyasha then grabbed her arm. Digging his claws in her skin. Kagome flinched in pain. She whispered "please Inuyasha, calm down..." His hand went limp as it fell back to his side. He went back to sleep. Kagome ignored the pain that she was in. She wanted him to wake up. But that now... Seemed like it would take forever. Kagome sighed and went to sleep. There was no telling how long it would take for Inuyasha to wake up from this.
Inuyasha grunted once more. Slowly, his eyes opened and he looked around the room. His eyes roamed, trying to think on where he could be at. THen, his eyes fell on Kagome. She had fallen asleep, lying her head next to his, and holding his hand. Maybe she didn't expect him to wake up when she was asleep. He couldn't help but smile. To him, it was cute seeing her like this. Then, he frowned thinking 'did she stay with me the whole time? And... how long was I out?'
Grunting again, he looked at his shoulder. It had a huge bandage on it. Kagome must have tended to the wound after he was brought here. But, what happened to the demon? He doesn't remember... All he remembered was the pain of being bit... Then nothing... He just blacked out... Inuyasha shook his head. Maybe he should wake up Kagome. She should know what happened. Looking at her again, he rubbed his thumb on the back of her hand whispering "Kagome...? Kagome... I need you to wake up..."
Kagome slowly opened her eyes and saw Inuyasha. She couldn't believe it. He was awake! Kagome shot up saying "oh Inuyasha! Your okay!"
Inuyasha sat up saying "you worry to much. Anyway, how long was I out for?"
"Hm... A week." Calmly said Kagome.
Inuyasha's eyes widened as he quickly sat up. But gripped his shoulder in pain. A loud hiss escaped his clenched teeth. Kagome placed her hand on one arm and the other on his none wounded shoulder as she said "calm down Inuyasha. Every thing's been quite. Every thing's okay."
He just stared at her. Giving a calm sigh, Inuyasha calmly said "alright... But, why does my shoulder still hurt after a week?!" Kagome just shrugged. She didn't have an answer. He guessed that he shouldn't expect her to have an answer when they both just fought a demon that they know nothing about. Inuyasha looked at the ceiling, he had to think about this for a moment. Okay... He's been out for a week... So that means that he also slept through his human night... No that was last week... So... tonight is the full moon...
A chill ran up Inuyasha's spine. Why is he afraid of tonight? It isn't like he's going to turn into a monster. That just isn't possible. He can't turn into an unknown monster. That just isn't possible. But... the feeling that was creeping up his spine... He knows it's a bad feeling... But what? What is this feeling and what does it mean?
Inuyasha was changed back into his clothing. When he sat up he noticed that he was only wearing his hakama's. Kagome told him that he would get terrible fever's and cause of that she had to take off the shirt that he was wearing and only gave him a blanket in case he got cold. He had to admit... Getting cared for is a nice change... He hadn't felt anything like that in a long time. Not since his mother was alive. Inuyasha shook the feeling and left the hut. Sango and Miroku should be returning soon. But he couldn't help but shake that one feeling that kept bothering him.
Kagome was taking a nice run around the village. He couldn't help but smile a bit. She was trying not to suffocate him with her worrying. He didn't mind her worrying over him once in a while, but he did like space. Once in a while anyway. Inuyasha looked around and noticed that it was getting dark out. He just shrugged off that feeling for not. Looking at the sky, he saw something. It was a two tailed figure and right away, he knew that it was Kirara.
Sango and Miroku were coming back. Once Kirara landed, a couple got off of her. A woman with long brown hair and matching brown eyes wearing a pink and green kimono. She had a huge boomerang on her back. The male, he had blue eyes and short black hair pulled back into a small pony tail wearing purple and black monk robes. Holding a gold staff in one hand and had a cloth over his right hand. Golding earrings almost covered his ears. Inuyasha walked over to them and said "hey, how'd the demon hunt go?"
"It was a Weredemon." Calmly said Sango.
Inuyasha blinked in confusion. He's never heard of them. Wonder why. He calmly asked "what's that?"
"Well, not much is known about them since they were said to be well... Dead. But it seems that they're starting to come up again." Calmly said Sango.
Miroku nodded as he said "I heard something like that from my training. I heard that people should never let them bite you. Or something bad happens. We're not sure why though. The last one was known to be alive over 50 years ago."
Inuyasha's skin went pale for a moment. He calmly asked "wh-what does it look like?"
Miroku calmly said "uh... Let's see... It's a few feet taller then you... Covered in fur and it looked almost like a wolf. But it stood on two feet almost like a wolf demon... But this didn't look like one of Kouga's wolves. Why? Did one attack here?"
"Y-Y-Y-eah..." Inuyasha said, his skin getting paler.
Inuyasha didn't look so well. A Weredemon? That's what bit him last week... But, nothing happened yet. He was knocked out and everything was alright. Well, besides that Kagome's blood was on his claws but she had told him that it only happened because he was freaking out from the bite and he was still out... At least his mind was. He had to find a way to make sure that nothing does happen to him. Wait, it would only happen to humans right? Not half-humans.
"Does it only effect humans? The bite?" Asked Inuyasha.
Miroku and Sango both shook their heads. Sango calmly said "no, it also effects demons too. Why? Did something happen while we were gone?"
"N-N-N-N-N-N-N-No?"
Miroku hit Inuyasha with his staff saying "you were bit weren't you... Did anything happen?"
"No. I'm fine. The wound is starting to go away... Nothing happened while I was asleep. Kagome made sure of that. She said I was asleep for a full week and nothing happened. Maybe it doesn't bother half-demons..." Inuyasha whispered.
Miroku shook his head as he said "we can't be sure Inuyasha. No half-demon was ever bitten before. Did you get any weird feeling at all?"
Inuyasha nodded. Telling them about the chill he had about tonight. But he wasn't sure if it meant anything about him or something else. He couldn't be sure... Not until it was too late... But, he had to know if something did happen, if there was a way to stop it for good... He doesn't want to hurt anyone... Not again anyway.
"The only way to stop transformations from a Weredemon is to kill the beast that bit you, or to kill the real one." Miroku calmly explained.
Inuyasha nodded. That was the best thing he had. Sighing, he had to make sure that Kagome never finds out. Looking at Sango and Miroku, he told them to never. NEVER tell Kagome. No matter what. To never tell her. He didn't want her to be afraid. He couldn't bear it if she were frightened of him. There was nothing that could be done about it at the moment. At least, not now... Inuyasha looked at the sky. The moon was full... Then, his eyes widened.
Pain was starting to shoot through him. He hunched forward. Inuyasha hissed out "I'll be in the forest... Don't let Kagome go in there got that!?" Then, before he could get an answer from them, he was gone. And he wouldn't come back till morning. Not if he had anything to do about it.
