By the time we reached Koga's mountain Kirara was exhausted and collapsed almost immediately once we landed. I stayed to watch over her and make sure she was okay, but she motioned for me to go on. I nodded and walked up the path that led to Koga's wolf clan.
"Kagome!" I heard a familiar voice yell. I turned to see Koga running up the path at blinding speed. He snatched me up in his arms in one swift movement and sprinted ahead.
"Koga! My goodness, what are you running from?" I said, a bit confused.
"It's Inuyasha! He's gone mad!" Koga yelled with genuine fear causing his voice to tremble.
"I-Inuyasha? But, I left him just over an hour ago, how could he have gotten here so fast?" I wondered aloud. Koga skidded to an abrupt halt and looked at me sternly with his large brown eyes.
"Kagome, you sound like you anticipated an attack." He said. I shook my head fiercely.
"NO!" I yelled. Koga looked taken aback. "No, I didn't know anything about this Koga, or I would have came to warn you." I said with a more gentle tone.
He opened his mouth to speak, but had no time for words to escape.
"Oh you would, would you?!" Inuyasha's voice drifted from a tree above us. All I was able to see was the pain in his golden eyes as he came crashing through the branches before Koga sidestepped his attack.
"Are you in love with him, Kagome? Has he caught your heart with soft words?" Inuyasha yelled in fury and swiped his claws at Koga. "Iron reaver, soul stealer!"
Koga dodged just in time for the yellow slashes that came from Inuyasha's claws to whiz past his head, but my foot wasn't so lucky.
Blood dripped from the hole in my shoe and I winced in pain.
"Now you've gone and done it!" Screamed Koga at Inuyasha, who was only standing now in shock. "You're an idiot! A hot-headed fool who can't keep his temper! Now look what happens when you can't control yourself!" He gestured grandly to my foot, which had a deep gash that was gushing dark red blood. Inuyasha averted his gaze.
"NO! Look at it Inuyasha! You hurt her!" Koga kept screaming, my head was starting to hurt.
Inuyasha turned suddenly back to me in Koga's arms, an angry look on his face. "This is all your fault! Damn it, Kagome! If you hadn't left none of this would have happened!" He yelled at me. I cringed and he looked like he instantly regretted what he said, but I was too angry to care.
"No Inuyasha, if you weren't such a jerk this wouldn't have happened!" I squealed despite my headache and the fact I was beginning to feel faint because of the loss of blood.
He looked hurt, but I couldn't have cared less. I flung my arms around Koga's neck and buried my face in his chest, glaring at Inuyasha out of the corner of my eye.
"Koga," I said in my most seductive voice. "Take me away from him."
He looked down at me in shock almost as obvious as Inuyasha's but nodded, clutching me to him, casting a hateful look at Inuyasha, and running with his amazing speed down the trail where I'd originally been headed.
I looked at Inuyasha over Koga's shoulder, now feeling a sharp pang of guilt as I remembered his torn expression, but he was nowhere to be seen. I turned back to Koga, again burying my face in his chest. And I cried.
