Song of Change chapter 7

Kagome was confused. Very confused. W-wait, what? Koga looked at her with a lazy smirk, You're gonna be my female. His voice was filled with self-assurance and he was oozing arrogance. There were some quiet murmurs coming from the brown mass of wolves behind him. Finally, Minion one (Ginta) and Minion two (Hakkaku) spoke up; Koga! Are you sure? She's just an ordinary female! Koga silenced the two wolves, turning back to his pack. Of course! She's from the pack of my worst enemy, and she'll give me an advantage over him! Also, she's good at hunting and she's fast! Kagome craned her neck, trying to se around the mass of brown fluff that was Koga. How does he know this…?

After his little speech, Koga stood in front of his pack, and then as if they had never questioned him, the pack erupted into happy yells and growls, all congratulating Koga on his… new mate. Koga nodded in approval, and started to wag is tail, accidentally smacking Kagome in the face with every wag.

Then, suddenly, two wolves came running through the waterfall, panting heavily; K-Koga! Kagome pricked her ears up, and removed her face from Koga's tail. Said wolf immediately stopped wagging his tail, and stiffened. Koga growled, Was it the eagles? The two wolves nodded in exhaustion, tails and heads drooping. They got Raihei, and they tried coming after us. The fur on the back of Koga's neck rippled, and he growled darkly, sending shivers down Kagome's spine. They've gone too far, it's time to teach them a lesson. Ginta, Hakkaku, patrol, NOW!

Koga and company marched out of the cave, leaving Kagome alone with a sleeping fox-cub and the rest of the pack.

INU

Sango, quit pacing. You're not making this go any faster. Inuyasha mumbled, face still pressed into the dirt, The damn trail splits here! Sango whined, and continued to pace, dust clouds arising from her paws. I'm worried Inuyasha! I'll pace if I want to! Inuyasha rolled his eyes, and resumed his sniffing. Miroku put his nose down to the dirt, and gave an experimental sniff, and snorted; I don't know how you do this, all I smell is rocks and mud. Inuyasha gave no answer, and continued his search. Personally, Inuyasha didn't know why he was looking for the small black wolf, he kept telling himself that it was because Koga had taken one of his pack members from his territory, giving the white alpha a logical reason to be angry. But some small part of him, the small voice somewhere inside his brain, told him that he was looking for Kagome because he was worried.

Kagome

Kagome glanced behind her, the small fox-cub dangling in her jaws. Hang in there Shippo, just a little bit further! Shippo glanced up at her, and squealed as he swung from her jaws.

Behind her, Koga's pack ran hot on her heels, tongues lolling out of their mouths, enjoying the chase. Koga himself was out hunting, giving Kagome the opportunity she needed to make a run for it. She looked around wildly, scanning for any means of escape. Her eyes fell on a small crack in the rock wall, too small for her to fit through, but…. Shippo! Can you get through that hole? The little fox nodded, and glanced back at their pursuers. Alright! She let go of Shippo, who quickly scrambled towards the opening, his fluffy tail quivering.

Kagome spun around to face the ring of wolves, Follow the river Shippo! Find the white wolf and tell him where I am, don't worry about me, I'll be fine, now GO! Shippo looked at her one last time, and vanished through the hole, leaving Kagome to face the advancing tide of wolves alone.

Once Koga had left, Kagome had roused Shippo, and had grabbed the little fox in her jaws, claiming that he had to go to the bathroom. The other wolves had given her some fleeting glances, and had resumed eating. As soon as they had left the waterfall, Kagome broke out into a sprint, not looking behind her to see who was pursuing her. The sound of paws against rock must have alerted the pack, because within a few seconds, Kagome had half the pack chasing her.

Having relived her little flashback, Kagome shook herself and braced herself. Don't come any closer! The wolves milled around her, but didn't come any closer. And then Koga appeared. Hey, why'd you run off? Kagome glared at him, I want to go home. Koga laughed, white fangs flashing, Feisty, I like that in a female! Kagome stared at him in disbelief, Did he not hear ANYTHING that I just said? Koga smirked, and leaned in to press his nose against hers…. And found her fangs clamped onto his nose.

There was a shocked silence for a few seconds, and then whispers erupted behind Koga within the pack; Koga! She bit Koga! Said wolf looked shocked for a few seconds. Kagome took a deep breath, OK, I need to think of something to put him off….. Oh, I'm gonna regret this….. The small black wolf glared at Koga, I'm sorry, but I'm already seeing someone. Koga looked at her in surprise, You mean the mutt, Inutrasha? Kagome put her ears back in embarrassment, hating her life. His name is INUYASHA say it right!

Much to her surprise, Koga smirked, and then turned his back to her, laughing to himself. Good, cuz when I kill him, you'll be all mine! Kagome stared after him in shock, This wolf…. His head is thicker than Inuyashas! Will he ever give up?!
