Chapter 2: This just keeps getting better and better….. part 1

Last time: Why was he here again? Oh yes….because he needed to talk to the Inu-tachi but the most important member had or was about to vanish through a well….the only one he deemed important….the only one he cared about. He'd have to wait it out….and when she came back he'd have her.

It had been a couple of hours since Kagome had left the group and it was starting to get dark, everyone sitting around the campfire in silence. Inuyasha was lying in his tree, a moody look on his face as usual but perhaps it was not Kagome that was bothering him but it was the fact that Kikyo hadn't come yet. Miroku was meditating, staff in his lap ready to knock Inuyasha in case he got violent…damn but that Hanyou would never learn…Had Miroku opened his eyes he would've seen Sango staring at him with an unreadable expression. Miroku hadn't meant to intervene in Kagome and Inuyasha's endless quarrel but then again Kagome never deserved it in the first place.

-The Quarrel-

'Inuyasha don't make me s-i-t you….for once why can't you just keep your 'trap' shut and let me be?' Kagome began starting to get really pissed.

'Look all I'm saying is that if you decide to disappear again then Naraku will get all of the shards and you're timing is….' But Inuyasha was cut off by Kagome.

'Inuyasha wouldn't you start to feel lonely if you hadn't gone to see your family once in a while?' Kagome began only to shut up again. oops she had forgotten that the only family he had left was Sesshomaru and Inuyasha didn't exactly want to go 'visit' him….visit his grave yes….but not him….. Her words struck a chord in his heart and added more 'fuel to the fire,' so to speak….Kagome gritted her teeth and looked at Sango who decided that it might be a good idea for Kagome to make her exit now….but the only thing Sango could never understand was why Inuyasha would get so bent out of shape if anyone even mentioned his brother.

'Inuyasha I'm….look it's no big deal that you have no err….well…..that is to say….' Kagome started to stutter. How to tell Inuyasha that it was okay that he had no family when he did? 'Look...I wouldn't mind if Sesshomaru…..well…..he's not that bad….no that's not what I meant!….err….he's not ugly rather kinda handsome….wait!! Don't look at me like that!' Kagome knew she was just digging herself deeper into a hole. She didn't realize that Inuyasha had started to turn demon when she basically proclaimed that Sesshomaru was hot, after all what demon wants to hear the female they perceived as theirs loved another? Time to rip the other demon's throat out…..

Inuyasha's eyes flashed red and when jagged stripes appeared on his cheeks Kagome finally saw his face, her jaw hitting the ground. She 'eeped' and hid behind Miroku….bad idea, very bad idea indeed. Inuyasha really wasn't going to kill her was he? He did love her right? In his own twisted demented demon sort of way? 'Monk! Get out of the way!' Inuyasha hissed at him stalking forward. Sango raised her boomerang just in case, Inuyasha wasn't being rational right now.

'No. Inuyasha calm down there's nothing going on here.' Miroku said firmly crossing his arms on his chest. 'You will not hurt Kagome-sama not now, not ever.' He said.

'SHE.IS.MINE!!!' Inuyasha roared and lunged at Miroku. 'You will die for intruding with my plans! She is my future mate!!' with that Inuyasha lunged at him.

'I'm not yours so…….. SITTTT Inuyasha!!' Kagome screeched now thoroughly embarrassed about being proclaimed as Inuyasha's mate…….The incantation did smash him in the dirt but he got back up as soon as he hit the ground. 'Impossible!' Kagome thought. Why didn't it work properly?

'How unfortunate for you Inuyasha,' a voice said from behind him and knocked him out with her boomerang.

'Why did you help me Monk?!' Kagome said shaken up by Inuyasha. 'You dummy! You Baka!' she punched him in the chest and said, 'did-you-wish-to-die?' 'Do you not care about your well-being?' with that she leaned into his chest and started to sob. How she craved comfort at the moment! Inuyasha had never scared her so much in her life! She needed something or someone to calm her down at the moment….but what?

A hand touched her shoulder and she turned around. 'Kagome?' Sango said quietly. Never had she been so angered by Inuyasha still a ditch in the ground, courtesy of her boomerang. 'Even Naraku would treat her better than this! Even Sesshomaru….' Oh yeah that's right, it was because of him that this whole thing started. She sighed inwardly some things would never change. 'Houshi you alright?' She said who just nodded.

-End Quarrel-

-Previously that Morning- (Inuyasha walking Kagome to the well)

She didn't utter a word to Inuyasha as she jumped in the well, nor did she say when she would return and she knew that it hurt him….that Baka. He watched as she disappeared and sighed inwardly. Then without warning he yanked out his sword and yelled 'okay ya bastard where are you?!'

'My…My…Inuyasha, such temper….' The voice mocked him as he approached the enraged hanyou with a smirk on his features. 'But then again, I won't hold you to it, I see how you treat women.'

-Back to the Inu-tachi-

He huffed as he stared down at Sango and Miroku from the tree. He didn't know why the Houshi was acting so differently but that was probably due to the fact that Inuyasha didn't remember a thing…..

'Inuyasha's temperament is most unbecoming.' Miroku thought with his eyes still closed. 'We need to keep Kagome away from him… as far away from him as possible.' He might be just a human but he knew that Inuyasha harbored feelings for her whether in demon form or half-demon and one could never be too safe. It was not certain when Inuyasha would decide to 'pounce' on her and she would be unable to defend herself. He didn't need his friend to be miserable so something had to be done but what? He continued to meditate hoping to find the answers he was looking for. Sango polished her boomerang in silence the Houshi never knowing that she was thinking along the same lines….

-500 years into the future-

She lay there sprawled on her bed staring at the ceiling a distraught expression on her face. She hadn't told her family about Inuyasha almost trying to….well this would be an interesting topic wouldn't it? 'I have to do something!' she mentally screamed at herself. 'Inuyasha is becoming more and more 'unruly' and I can't even subjugate him properly now!

What to do….What to do…..
