Chapter 2: Something Freaky
Later on that night after everyone had eaten, after everyone had grown tired of knowing about Kagome's whereabouts, and after everyone was sleeping, there Kagome sat in the dark looking at her hands. Something happened she knew it did, because when she was sleeping something poked her and she came to find that it was her nails, and when she opened her eyes she her saw razor sharp claws glisten in the dark night. Kagome gasped and almost squashed poor Shippo in her fright. Sighing deeply to calm herself down, Kagome sat up and began to examine her nails. Every way she turned them it never changed. There was just nothing strange about her nails. "Hmph, maybe it was my imagination."
But still something didn't feel right she knew it had something to do with what that demon had said. She knew that what ever he said something was going to change and she knew that what ever it was; was something that would be life changing. But the thing is, she just couldn't figure out why her life was going to change. Kagome turned to look at the tree where Inuyasha had taken refugee and gave a short scream when she saw two glowing eyes staring dead at her. Inuyasha hopped out of his tree and squatted down in front of Kagome and frowned.
"What the hell are doing? You're supposed to be asleep."
"Huh?"
"Dammit."
Inuyasha looked around to make sure the others were still asleep then he returned his gaze to hers. A growl erupted from his throat as he leaned closer towards Kagome and sniffed in her scent. Kagome sat fearfully whimpering, wondering what was going. But as her mind began to calm her body became strangely aware of how close Inuyasha was and Kagome tried so hard not become aroused, though she was aroused. Suddenly everything began to change, something was happening. They both could feel it, but Kagome didn't want to acknowledge it. Inuyasha froze and slowly pulled back to examine Kagome. A gasp eased out of his mouth when he saw what was happening to her. Kagome's canines began to lengthen into fangs and her ears began to change into fuzzy points that bore the shape of a cat's ear and her nails lengthened into claws.
As Inuyasha sat frozen holding Kagome in his arms the moon chose that moment to peak from behind the clouds at its fullest and brightest state. And at that very moment Kagome opened her eyes to reveal two sliver green colored eyes. "Kagome?"
At Inuyasha's voice Kagome remembered just where she was and in a blink of an eye her new transformation disappeared. For what seemed like hours Inuyasha sat there and examined her sniffing behind her now human ears and under her chin. He was trying to find the trigger that had changed Kagome. What the hell was going on? "Um…Inuyasha?"
"What?"
"Can I go back to sleep?"
"Oh… yeah sure."
Inuyasha stood and hopped back into his tree and watched Kagome as she settled back down into her bedding. Something was going on but what? Sleep once again began to over take him and he was going to let it, maybe he was way more tired than he thought he was. 'Yeah some sleep is all I need.'
Meanwhile Kagome tired with all her might to make sense of what just happened. Something happened she knew that much and if she needed proof all she had to do was look at Inuyasha's face. Did he smell her, did she moan his name and scared him? What? What happened and why was she having that quaky feeling again? It was just like when she left that clearing with the cat but only intensified by 300 folds. Something freaky was going to happen she could just feel. Now if only she could figure what then she'd be a genius. Now what was it that damned cat said? 'Something about understanding…now what was she suppose to understand?'
Oh bloody hell! Fuck it all. Yeah, all she needs to do is sleep. Yeah sleep, maybe she was way more tired than she thought. Of course they did have a run-in with Naraku earlier. 'Yep that has to be it!' Ok all she has to do is sleep. That's easy enough…

-Later That Night-
Ok maybe she wasn't sleepy, maybe she wasn't imagining things. Maybe just maybe something really was going to happening. But what? Kagome tossed and turned for the hundredth time that night, something was keeping her awake. Not anything harmful, no! But something deep inside that had just awoken to life and now that something wanted to stretch its legs and run. But she had to suppress it for Kagome knew the dangers of going anywhere without waking anyone or without Inuyasha's permission. She knew demons were out there ready and hungry for a midnight snack, but she still wanted to go, she still wanted to run. Something inside was telling her to do so and she really wanted to, so much so that she began to sweat from the thrill of it. "Oh dear God…"
Soon the covers were to much and so she retched them from her body. It was so damn hot! But removing the covers did nothing to soothe her, only the wind against her face would suffice and she knew it. Kagome panted softly as she felt the new feeling began to kick the inside of her soul. She felt like dying but she had to suppress it, she had to be strong, she had to…RUN! She had to run and run fast. And without a second thought Kagome jumped to her feet and ran out of the clearing that was the group's camping site. A quick run that won't take so long. But as Kagome ran through the trees, the wind lapping at her face she began to laugh. She felt alive, willing, and free. Suddenly the moon filtered through the clouds again bathing the Earth below in a golden orange color and Kagome enjoyed every moment. As she continued to run Kagome once again felt that over whamming feeling but she knew that it wouldn't harm her so she let it over take her as she laughed. To those who were watching from afar saw Kagome begin to transform into a demon cat, it was a beautiful sight. A glow came about her as she laughed even more.
Suddenly her legs took over and she was running on the branches of trees, hopping from branch to branch, her pace quickening by the second. OH this was wonderful! Briefly Kagome wondered just where was she going and how long it would take to get there. But that was a fleeing thought and it did not matter. As long as she kept running she would be fine. Yes, she would be fine. Kagome continued to run as the moon shone even more brightly. The clouds that first covered the sky were now gone and only the stars and the full moon filled the sky, and yet Kagome didn't mind. She didn't mind at all for she felt even freer than before. Occasionally her mind would wonder towards Inuyasha and how she wished he was here-with her running with the moon. But sadly enough he was not and she somehow didn't want him to be. For this new something in her body wanted to be alone while her heart wanted her love and it was there that she realized that she was being torn into two.
Kagome wanted to stop at this new discovery but her body didn't want to and so she didn't. The only thing Kagome was concerned with was running and that was all she did. Kagome continued to hop from tree to tree and as she continued she could feel her destination was nearing. Kagome jumped to her last tree and stared out at the sight before her. A smile graced her lips as she looked down at the valley below the cliff of which the tree she occupied stood. Kagome sighed and sat down upon the thickly branch she was standing on and stared out in wonder. Everything was so interesting; it was like she was a new born baby having its first look at the world. Kagome sat and watched as the trees below swayed in the wind, her eyes danced when she saw a shooting star glisten the sky. It was so magical and she never wanted to let this moment go, but as it were sleep had finally came to her and like a baby she was unwilling to let it come.
But as Kagome grew more and more tired, she knew she had lost and so a yawn eased its way from her throat and she stretched out on her stomach over her branch; both legs straddling the branch as her arms nestled her head and sleep over took her. The nightly creatures sang their song as the moon smiled upon its new born child.
An ear twitched at the sound of birds chirping and a pair of eye brows frowned at the intruding sun. Kagome opened an eye open and looked around and almost fell out of her tree from shock. 'How did I get up here?' But then her nightly memories came rushing back and Kagome gasped. 'What time is it? Were the others awake already? Were they looking for me? Was Inuyasha worried about me? Oh God was I out here all night?' She had to get back to camp before she drove herself into histeria. Kagome ran as fast as she could back to camp. This new thing was actually good for something. But at that comment part of her felt slighted by it. This new feeling was definitely something freaky. As Kagome raced into the camp site only to discover that no one was even awake, not even Inuyasha. "Well that's freaky."
She turned and walked toward the spring and stooped down on the bank of water and smiled. She looked at her reflection and sighed. Not a hair out of place. Kagome with sure that she was changing but nothing was happening and for that she was sad. "Well since I'm here I might as get the water for breakfast."
Kagome walked backed to camped and grabbed the pot in which she used to cook the Raman and headed back to the pond. She scooped up about half a pot full of water and headed back to camp. Once she arrived there a curse slipped from her mouth as she soon discovered—or rather remembered that the fire had died some time ago last night. Oh well she would just have to start another. Now where was that damned lighter? A minute of looking and a triumphant squeal later, Kagome had successfully gathered new branches and twigs and lit them for the fire. She placed the pot on the rotisserie stick and sat waiting for the water to boil.
While Kagome waited for the water, her mind began to wander and the subjects involved a certain Hanyou and herself exploring something she'd like to call sexual release. A chuckle eased its way pass her lips as Kagome's mind went even further into the dream. Aroused and wanting Inuyasha to awaken, Kagome sighed as she stared at the pot of now boiling water, but she wasn't ready looking. She didn't even see the pot all, she saw was Inuyasha staring at her with those maddening eyes of his and smiling at her like she was the only thing on this planet to made him happy. Soon the campsite was filled with the smell of Kagome's sex and the smell was strong. Heady and strong. Heady and Strong. Twitching a nose a demon smiled at the smell of a ready bitch. The thought of rutting was strong and he wanted this female.
As the smell reached his brain, his eyes shot open and he stared down at Kagome and was once again amazed to see that she had transformed. Was she in heat? What the fuck was going on? "Kagome!"
The young woman whipped her head around and stared shockingly up at Inuyasha. Did he know what she was doing or rather thinking? "Y-yes?"
"N-nothing. What are you cooking?"
"Huh?"
"What are you cooking?"
"Oh Raman."
Inuyasha sighed and hopped out his tree and strolled over to Kagome and looked her over before sighing and writing off what he had just seen. No, he wouldn't do that, so he simply put the thought in the back of his mind. "Inuyasha?"
"What?"
"What's wrong?"
"Kagome are you feeling alright?"
"Of course, why? Do I look bad? Do I stink?"
"No, no. It's nothing like that, I was just wondering. Why don't we head back to Keade's today?"
"Sure! I was going to ask you could I go home today anyway."
"Sure but I'm going with you."
"But--"
"No 'buts' either I go with you or you don't go at all."
Kagome sighed as the words, "fine" slid pass her lips.

So there they were the group of six heading back to Keade's. The reason was for various things but the main one in Inuyasha's mind was to find out just what the hell was going on with Kagome. Kagome, this time walked a little ways ahead of the group and that little action tipped off Miroku and Sango. Both of them began walking faster to whisper to Inuyasha about Kagome.
"Inuyasha," Miroku started. "Do you know what's troubling Kagome?"
"What are you talking about? She's fine."
"No Inuyasha," Sango chimed. "She's not. She's never before walked ahead of the group unless something is wrong."
"Well if you're going to talk about me, behind my back I might add! You can at least be quiet about it!"
That sentence…that very sentence right there was the changing-well the public changing of her life. And shock and horror drew into Kagome's face as she heard Miroku's reply. "Kagome, we were whispering."
"Wha-what?--I--I-I…"
There was nothing she could say, nothing. How was she suppose to know they were whispering, everything sounded so damn loud. Kagome's eyes roamed over her friends' faces and fear began to pour into her body. She didn't know what was happening and now they were all staring at her like she was some kind of freak of nature. She had to run and fast! Then in a blinding second Kagome turned and ran, ran from her friends, ran from her self, ran from her fear…ran from Inuyasha.
"KAGOME!"
Inuyasha sped off after Kagome as the others were left dumbfounded. Something happened, something that wasn't supposed to happen, but it did. And now they were all at a lost for words. Sango and Miroku looked at each other then back at the path ahead of them. What was going on? Sango stared blankly ahead and said a very calm voice, "What just happened?"
"My Dearest, I haven't the slightest."
"So does that mean we're stopping for the day?"
Miroku torn his eyes away from the road and turned to answer Shippo. "I don't know."
