Chapter six: Bleeding Inside
Inuyasha and Kagome walked to a far off field. The sun was at its highest point and Kagome's tears had dried. She looked up at the sky; the clouds were moving and making funny shapes. "When I was young Yura and I would come out here and call out the shapes of the clouds. I remember one day one looked like a cross, she had called it a sign." Kagome said when they stopped.
"A sign for what?" Inuyasha asked looking at the clouds.
"She never said." Kagome said and sat down. "I'm sure my sister has told you a lot about me but she's avoiding the most important thing."
"What's that?" he looked down at her. The sun shone on her face and it brightened her skin to a nice healthy glow.
"Haven't you realized that all the death is centered on me?" she asked looking up at him.
Inuyasha looked at her, he didn't even think about it but she was right. All the deaths were close like family. Kirara was her cousin, Mayu was a little girl who was a close friend and Yura was a child hood friend. He never knew the exact relationship between Mayu and her though. "What was your relationship with Mayu?"
Kagome looked at him then down at her hands. "Why the sudden question?"
"She's your daughter isn't she? That's why you don't fall in love." Inuyasha said squatting in front of her.
"She is not!" Kagome yelled. "I use to watch her and a little boy that disappeared a few years ago. He was attached to me but when he saw me…well he saw me kiss someone and he disappeared."
"Who'd you kiss?" Inuyasha asked. "Was it Kouga?"
Kagome blushed, "No it was Miroku. I liked him when I was younger, so I kissed him when we were alone."
"You liked him?" Inuyasha asked in disbelief.
"Yes, but after I told him I liked him he went and groped some of the girls and I started to hate him. That's why I vowed to never like or love anyone else. Till I met…" Kagome stood up. "Ah look at the sun it's nearly set. Shall we head home?" she began walking back but Inuyasha grabbed her wrist.
"Till you met who?" He asked. She turned around and looked him in the eyes. "Till you met me."
She rushed into his chest. She wrapped her arms around his back and grabbed onto the back of his shirt. "I don't want to die!" He could feel his chest getting wet from her tears. He wrapped his arms around her waist and held her close.
"You're not going to die. I won't let that happen." Inuyasha told her. She looked up at him. He lowered his face down to hers and kissed her eyes. "I promise I won't let you die."
She nodded her head, "We should get back."
"Yeah." He wrapped his arm around her waist and they started to walk back to the hut. "So Miroku huh? Didn't see that one coming."
Kagome sighed, "Drop it."
Kouga sat in Ayame's hut drinking some water. He watched as she fed her baby brother. She really had the mother aura around her and Kouga noticed that she looked beautiful with it. He was always clinging to Kagome when Ayame was the one he really loved. He didn't know why he treated her like he did though.
"Kouga?" Ayame said again. He looked up at her. She was holding the baby in her arms rocking him to sleep. "Can you help me real quick?" she asked and walked into the bedroom. "Can you pick the blanket up and put the pillow at the top for me."
He nodded and did what she wanted. After a few minutes she laid the sleeping baby into the crib and took the blanket from Kouga and placed it on the baby. She smiled then grabbed Kouga's hand and walked out. He pulled her into her bedroom. Ayame had a confused face but he just closed the door and locked it. He pulled her to the bed and sat her down.
"Ayame will you marry me?" He asked seriously.
She looked at him for a second then a smile formed on her face. "Are you serious?"
"Very serious."
"Of course I will marry you." She exclaimed and jumped onto him pushing him down onto the bed. She kissed him passionately. He pressed her body onto his and rolled over so he was on top of her. He broke the kiss and moved to her ear and sucked on the lobe. She let out a moan then covered her mouth. She pushed him off her. "We can't do this here. My parents are against it before marriage, remember?"
"So tell them you're going over to my place." Kouga said. She smiled and the two left her room. She poked her head into her parent's room and told them where they were going.
Hand in hand Kouga and Ayame left and went to Kouga's hut. His parents didn't live at the hut anymore so he had it all to himself. He slammed Ayame's body against the closed door and kissed her fiercely. With his free hand he locked the door and then lifted her up. He took her to his bedroom and dropped her on the bed. He got on top of her and started to take her clothing off as she did to him.
"Be gentle Kouga." Ayame whispered. Kouga looked at her fully naked body. He got off of her and walked to his dresser. She sat up and watched him. He came back and put something around her neck. When she looked down a silver chain held an engagement ring. She smiled. "Forget bout being gentle, be as rough as you want."
He smirked and knelt onto the bed and kissed her. She wrapped her legs around his waist as he kissed her neck. She ran her hands over his back. They were going to have love for the very first time tonight and she didn't care if she dies the next day. She was happy.
Sango's eyes opened. Memories from the day flooded into her head. She looked down at her hand. He had asked her to marry him after they had sex and she had said yes. She didn't know why she said yes but she did. She felt like if she didn't she was going to loose something. She could now die happy; she was no longer a virgin. She turned over and looked at Miroku's face. He looked so peaceful when he slept. She looked down at his chest and started to outline his muscles with the tip of fingernail.
Miroku's eyes fluttered open; he looked at Sango and smiled. "Morning."
"Try again; it's only about ten pm." Sango said and stretched her muscles.
"No way, ah jeez, I say we go for another round." Miroku said wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Another round? Are you serious?" Sango asked looking at him.
"I'm very serious. We have the whole night and there is no way I'm letting you out of my bed."
Sango starred at him a little while then gave in to his doggy eyes. "Fine, but only one round."
"That's what you said last time." Miroku said as she got on top of him.
Kagome sat behind Inuyasha on her bed braiding his hair. "I guess Sango isn't coming home."
Inuyasha turned to look at her when she let go of his hair. "Are you worried?"
"No, I know Miroku would never let her out once the sun is down. I just don't want to imagine what they are doing." Kagome said then shook her head.
Inuyasha crawled up to her and grabbed her waist and pulled her down to him. "Nothing that we won't be doing soon."
Kagome hit his chest, "I'm against sex before marriage."
"Of course you are." Inuyasha sighed. He blew at the candle that was holding light for the room, out. He pulled Kagome closer and closed his eyes. "Go to sleep I know we are going to have a hard day tomorrow."
Kagome nodded and closed her eyes, "I love you Inuyasha." She said then fell asleep. Inuyasha smiled and kissed the top of her head. He closed his eyes and fell asleep himself.
"Ayame don't go, just wait till morning." Kouga said half asleep.
Ayame, who had all her clothes on, shook her head. "I have to go tonight. I will be back in the morning my love. She bent and kissed him then said bye and left.
She ran to the outside alter where they cook large animals. It had been lit for some reason so she stopped to put it out. While putting it out she heard something behind her snap. She snapped up and looked behind her. "Oh it's just you, don't scare me like that. I hope the murder is caught, coming outside is frightening for us girls." She looked behind her again and noticed the person was considerably close. "What are you doing?"
"With you I will only have three girls left to kill." The person said.
Ayame's eyes widened. "No way, you're the one killing everyone?" she asked. She thought for a moment and tried to run but the person caught her and banged her head against the alter and she passed out.
When Ayame's eyes opened she felt really hot. She looked down and saw that the person put her into the alter and she was on fire. She tried to get up but they had tied her down. She screamed but it was muffled from a cloth that was stuck in it. She was tied up like a pig for a big feast. She squirmed at the heat burning her flesh. Tears fell from her eyes; she didn't really mean she wanted to die after having sex with Kouga. She noticed a ledge that had a pointy end and cut her finger. She used the blood to write on the brick wall above her. After a while she couldn't continue because the fire had cooked her through and she had died.
Thirty minutes later the person came back and put out the fire. You could still identify her but she was cooked. He attached a slip of paper to her head by using a nail then left not even seeing the message.
March 17, 1955, 1:58 am, Ayame Barr was murdered on Drakkar Island.
