Author's Note: Hello Simply Hopeless here and I've enjoyed reading your reviews and have tried to come up with ideas for this next chapter. All I know is that Hojo and Cupid need to sleep with one eye open and a baseball bat by their sides. Cause there is nothing scarier then an angry hanyou. You know Inuyasha isn't own by me, right? I thought so, please enjoy the chapter and don't forget to review. It's my birthday after all. XP
Chapter Two: The Green Eyed Monster Called Jealousy
"Don't kill Hojo in a fit of jealousy, or Kagome will never forgive you," kept on repeating in his head as he tried to forget the sight of his Kagome kissing that, that ah!
"Killing Hoho, now that's a good idea," said Inuyasha smiling crookedly. Inuyasha's claws extended without him knowing it as he thought of all the ways he could torture Hoho.
'I could slip him a shard of the Shikon Jewel in his food so that he'd eat it. Then take him to the Feudal Era and watched him be torn apart by Jewel seeking youaki before I kill them to get back the shard. Or maybe I could use my 'Iron Rever' attack on him at night when he's walking home and no one's around. No then she would know I killed him by the deep scratch marks. Unless… Maybe I can use the Tetsusaiga to kill him. But no, the stupid sword won't work if I try to kill a human,' thought Inuyasha frowning but he smiled goofily with daydreaming eyes as he thought of other ways to torture Hoho.
'Why did that Cupid leave me here with them,' thought Inuyasha, his teeth grinding. His mind was clouded with more thoughts of ways to kill that Hoho guy that he didn't realize that he actually had his hands around Hoho's neck and was choking him. The only reason he snapped out of it because Kagome called his name.
"Inuyasha have you lost your mind!" said Kagome as she tried to pry his hands from poor Hojo's neck. 'His eyes they glowed red for a second. He wasn't about to turn into a full demon was he?" said Kagome a little worried.
"I don't know what came over me. First I was thinking about... it's not important what I was thinking bout. The thing we need to worry about is finding the Jewel shards," said Inuyasha as he tried to distract Kagome from he fact that he just tried to kill the man that she now loved.
"No we're not. I'm going to take poor Hojo to his house and stay there so I could check on him. You on the other hand can leave right now," said Kagome as she glared at him.
"But... But... Kagome I just wanted to," said Inuyasha before Kagome cut him off. "I know what you wanted to do and it's not happening. There is no way that I'm going to let you kill him. And I swear if you hurt but just one hair on his head I would send you on a one way trip to hell where you can hang out with your dead girlfriend Kikyou," said Kagome poking Inuyasha in the chest.
After those words she grabbed Hojo's hand and walked resolutely away. Hojo eyes still widen at the fact that Inuyasha was planning to kill him, was all but glad to leave.
Inuyasha was so mad at what just happened that he banged his fist into the table that Hojo and Kagome had been making out in and watched as it broke in two.
He felt eyes on him and jerked his up to see the customers staring at him stunned. "What are you looking at!" yelled Inuyasha and kicked the table before he walked away. "Hey sir you're going to have to pay that table," said the ice cream storeowner. "In your dreams," said Inuyasha not bothering to turn and walked casually away.
AT HOJO'S HOUSE
"Are you sure you're all right Hojo," said Kagome as she began to lightly massage his shoulders. "But you don't have to do that Kagome. Have a seat," said Hojo and took her hand to guide her back to the couch. Kagome ignored the empty space on the chair and opted for Hojo's lap.
OUTSIDE
"What does that girl thing she's doing!" said Inuyasha to himself as he looked as his Kagome become real close to this excuse for a human. "When I get my hand's on Hojo I'll kill him, I swear if it's the last thing I do," said Inuyasha through clinched teeth as his demon blood pulsed through him for the second time that day and his eyes flashed blood red.
'I can sense Inuyasha and he's very upset,' thought Kagome as she stopped nuzzling Hojo's ear long enough to look out the window. She didn't see him but for some reason she knew he was there.
"Hojo I have to go but I'll call you as soon as I get home," said Kagome giving Hojo a quick peck on the cheek before she got off his lap and left out the house. "Uhuh," said Hojo stilling reeling from the fact that Kagome Higurashi and him had made out on the couch a minute ago.
As she left out the door she turned her head. There was deep claw marks in the tree by the window. "Inuyasha," Kagome whispered worriedly.
BACK IN THE FUEDAL ERA
"What's wrong with Inuyasha? I swear all I said was 'Hi how was your day with Kagome' and then he try's to rip me to shreds," said Miroku as he walked towards Shippo and Sango. His clothes were torn and he was out of breath from running, he was leaning heavily on his staff.
"I don't know but it may have something to do about Kagome?" said Shippo frightened. "It's best to let Inuyasha cool off before you try to pursue the matters further," said Lady Keade who walked towards them.
WHERE INUYASHA WAS
"She makes me so mad and then she has the nerve to kiss that creep Hoho and threaten me," said Inuyasha as he punched at the tree that was already suffering from his blows. Splinters were flying everywhere.
"My lord what is wrong," said Moyuga from the safety of another tree. The flea had already saw ten trees broken and half all around them and didn't want to crash with this one. "Where are you flea!" said Inuyasha as he paused in his punching of the tree to look around and breathe heavily to his self.
"I am up here my lord. I was napping in this tree when I felt the shake of the tree. I looked down to see who did it before I made my escape," said Muyoga as he hopped down from the branch and settled on his lord's nose.
"It is like you to run away," said Inuyasha as his golden eyes fastened on the flea on his nose. "My Lord I do not know what you mean," said the flea a little offended as he turned his head away from Inuyasha's eyes and crossed his six arms across his chest.
"Moyuga I need your help," said Inuyasha as he looked at the flea. "With what my lord?" said Moyuga eagerly as he forgot that he was supposed to be annoyed with him.
A COUPLE OF MINUTES LATER
"Okay, who paged me!" said Cupid annoyed as he appeared in a flash of red light. He was staring at his pager and was ignorant to the surprised Inuyasha and flea. The little boy was wearing silk navy blue pajamas with his name in deep red in small flowing letters underneath his pocket. His blond hair had pink tips. If he turned around you could see little chubby white wings with pink highlights sticking from his back.
"Cupid I want to talk to you!" said Inuyasha as he snapped out of his amazement. "Huh? Oh it's you Inuyasha," said Cupid as he fastened slightly startled blue eyes on him. "You've changed," said Inuyasha at a lost for words.
"I couldn't go parading in public with wings you know," said Cupid smirking. He then snapped his fingers and his blue pajamas were replaced with a pair of blue jeans and a white T that read "Love bites, doesn't it," in red letters.
"What's with the t-shirt?" Inuyasha asked as he crossed his arms across his chest. "Oh, this? It's just a joke present my friends gave me for my birthday," said Cupid, "But we're not here to talk about my friends since of humor are we Inuyasha. Its woman trouble isn't it, specifically Kagome," said Cupid cocking his head to the side, a smile playing on his lips.
"You little demon!" said Inuyasha as he lifted Cupid by the collar of his shirt and glared at him. "Isn't this getting a little tiring," said Cupid as he looked with bored blue eyes at Inuyasha.
Inuyasha tossed Cupid away in disgust and growled warningly if he made any more smart remarks. "Watch it kid or I'll show you how your arms can bend four different ways at once," said Inuyasha looking down on the boy.
"Please excuse my master, as you can see he is very upset," said Moyuga "You don't have to apologize Moyuga, when it comes to matters of the heart Inuyasha is always hostile," said Cupid as he got up and dusted his clothes.
"Can you help me," growled Inuyasha through clinched teeth. 'I know the stupid boy won't help unless I be nice,' he thought Inuyasha. "Sure Inuyasha, since you asked so nice," said Cupid smiling crookedly, knowing how hard it was for Inuyasha to ask for his help. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
INSIDE A CLUMP OF BUSHES, AT THE PARK IN KAGOME'S TIME
With precise aim Cupid was able to shoot Kagome between the shoulder blades with a disenchantment arrow that will reverse the effects that his love arrow gave her.
'Why am I kissing Hojo like there is no tomorrow,' thought Kagome as she broke their kiss. "What's wrong honey?" said Hojo dreamily as he claimed her lips again. 'What's come over him,' thought Kagome as she broke the kiss off again and this time she got off his lap.
Inuyasha was ready to claw out Hojo's throat. "Calm down Inuyasha, don't you see that he's under the effects of Cupids arrow," said Miroku who had come to help out Inuyasha in his time in need. "I don't care," said Inuyasha but he settled down and looked expectantly at Cupid who notched his second arrow.
"Hey watch it," said Cupid as he took careful aim and pulled his arrow back. "What's this arrow do," said Miroku as he pulled one from Cupid's quiver of arrows. "Don't touch that!" said Cupid turning his head to scold Miroku and only ended up in sneezing. The arrow launched into the air and fell a foot away from Hojo.
"Thanks a lot monk," said Cupid sarcastically. "Hand me a arrow," said Cupid as he held out his hand behind him, his attention still focused on Kagome and Hojo. Miroku was so busy glaring at Cupid that he accidentally handed Cupid the special arrow Cupid didn't want him to touch in the first place.
Cupid notched the arrow to the bowstring and sneezed once again sending the arrow fly at Kagome. Kagome eyes widened in surprise and her mouth made an 'O' shape as she gasped.
"What arrow did you hand me Miroku," said Cupid hurriedly as he watch as a thin pink vapor flowed through the point that the arrow struck her in. "Uh... I don't know," said Miroku shrugging embarrassingly. "Oh god please tell me where you put the special arrow I said not to touch," said Cupid.
"I accidentally gave it to you," said Miroku. "Put this on before the vapor comes to us!" said Cupid as he tossed Miroku and Inuyasha a gas mask similar to Sango's design. "What do we need these for Cupid," said Inuyasha anxiously as his voice came softly muffled through the mask. "It will protect us from being affected by the pink vapor," said Cupid as he put his own.
The boys watched as the vapor spread to and past them. The unsuspecting people breath in the vapor that was invisible to normal people who nothing about magic like the three boys.
Inuyasha broke out of Miroku's hold as he saw men of all ages walking up to a surprise Kagome with love in their eyes and started to talk about how they loved her, would she marry him, and kissing her hands.
Inuyasha jumped in front of the crowd of men that had hid Kagome from sight and let out a dangerous growl. His eyes glowed red and his demon marks showed that he was a demon through and through. He had thrust Kagome behind him and growled again warningly.
Inuyasha was ready to kill any eligible man in Japan that even look at Kagome to long. "I think I'll go now," said Cupid sweat dropping as he looked at the transformed demon Inuyasha who he thought was suppose to be only a hanyou. As Cupid was about to vanish into thin air, Kagome threw a rosary around his neck identical to Inuyasha. 'My instincts tell me that he's responsible. And wasn't he the little boy who was spying on her and Inuyasha yesterday?' thought Kagome.
"What the..." said Cupid as he tried to pull the stupid thing from around his neck. "Stay boy!" said Kagome quickly and that was how Cupid was introduce to the rosaries. His body slammed into the dirt and he groaned as he rolled onto his back.
He glared daggers at the frowning Kagome, vengeance written all over his face at his humiliation before he vanished into thin air.
"Kagome I don't think you should have done that," said Miroku worriedly. "No one messes with my feelings, no matter who he is!" said Kagome angrily at Miroku her eyes flashing with anger. Then, "Who was he anyway Miroku?" said Kagome cocking her head to the side, her anger extinguish and replaced by a look of confusion. Miroku fell down anime style and the demon Inuyasha sweat-dropped.
"He's Cupid and now that you made him mad he can make you fall in love or hate anyone. If he wants to he can even make you fall for Naraku," said Miroku solemnly. "He wouldn't! Would he? I wish you would have told me sooner," said Kagome a little nervously.
"I didn't think you would throw a rosary around his neck and bind him like you did Inuyasha. And while we're on the subject, when did you make that?" said Miroku looking at her curiously. "I... Um," said Kagome before someone thankfully cut her off.
"I don't know who you are but please marry?" said a young man walking towards Kagome. Inuyasha flung the poor man into a tree where he lay unconscious. His red eyes looked around waiting to see who would dare miss with his mate.
'Kagome is mine and only mine. I rip off anyone's arm who tries to touch her,' he thought to himself. He growled causing anyone stupid enough to try to get to Kagome to back away though they still looked longingly at Kagome.
"Sit Inuyasha!" said Kagome after she ran to the young man to see if he was all right. Inuyasha slammed into the ground and spitted out grass as he rose to his feet. "What ya do that for wench!" said Inuyasha shaking his fist at Kagome.
The men in the crowd cried out in protest at Inuyasha insulting the love of their lives. "What are all these men complaining about? It's like they love her or something," said Inuyasha and then it clicked.
'That special arrow Cupid said not to touch has made every man in Japan fall in love with her,' he thought and cursed under his breath. Without another second wasted he picked up Kagome and grabbed Miroku by the shirt to all the men's disappointment. He bounded backwards to Kagome's home where he promptly dropped his friends in the well and followed after them.
'What was that idiot Cupid thinking,' thought Inuyasha as he climbed out if the well and almost turned into a whole demon when he saw who Kagome was kissing passionately. "Revenge is sweet," said Cupid smirking at the kissing couple and the shocked Inuyasha, his eyes twinkling with mischief before he disappeared.
"I'M GONNA' KILL YOU CUPID!" screamed Inuyasha and pulled Kagome from the new love of her life. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I hope you enjoyed the sorry so far and continue to read it. I don't think Cupid will be lasting long at this rate if Inuyasha's trying to kill him for what he did next, this is even worse than the Hojo accident. Next chapter is called 'Love Bites.' Until next time and remember to review or you won't find out who Cupid made Kagome fall in love with this time!
