Recall: "Kagome I love you. I love you." He kept whispering it over and over until he fell asleep in her arms. Kagome's head did a complete 360. Her cheeks were heated, her chest was thumping, her eyes were sparkling, and the man she feared was in his arms. He loves me. He really loves me. She thought as she too fell asleep.

Chapter 9: Missing

It was about 6:30 in the morning and Kagome's been awake for about an half an hour. She really couldn't fall asleep because one, Inuyasha had is arms around her, two he told her he loved her which was a shocker, and three, she was really worried about her mom, grandfather, and little brother. It was quite obvious that they were worried about her. Seriously, she's been missing for two days with out so much as a phone call. Well the remote to the television was on the dresser next to her, s she decided to see if they were talking about her on the news. She turned to channel six, and sure enough they were.

The News Report:

"This is Tom with your 6:30 report. And we have more to cover after this news from Laura. Laura??"

"Thank you Tom."

BREAKING NEWS: Two nights ago, three teenage girls by the names of Kagome Higurashi, Sango Lee, & Rin Chang went missing after coming home from the movies. At first police expected it to be a runaway case. That is until local neighbors say that around seven o'clock that night, that they heard gun shots and/or women screaming.

Witness 1: I was outside on my porch with my cat, when I heard the sounds of shots going off. It's not really familar around here but I have heard them before so thought nothing of it. Then I heard 3 screams that sounded like little girls. I didn't know what was happening so I left it alone.

Witness 2: I was walking my dog around and I saw that there was blood. So I went dow the alley and saw this dead body of a man. I looked around to see if there were anymore dead bodies, but there wasn't. So I called the police and they picked him up.

Witness 3: I was coming home from the store and I see three girls walking down the street. I think oh no harm in them, they ain't bothing nobody and go inside. I put my groceries away and I hear what sounded like gun shots. So I went out side again. I just see the same three little girls running. Then I saw what looked like grown men chasing after them. I called the police and explained what I saw and heard.

In any case Tom teenagers' families and friends are deeply upset. All explaining the good life their daughters have and how much they each care for them deeply. And all say that there is no way that their daughters run away. It turns out that their daughters get a lot of love and attention. They all believe it was a kidnapping process.

Kagome's mom: My little girl would never run away from home. And neither would her friends. She loves it here, and she's a good student and a good child. Why would anyone want to do this to them? Why would they do this to us? She needs to be back with her family and come back home where she belongs.

Sango's dad: My Sango and her friends have been friends for about 12 years and they all like it here very much. Her mother died when she was young but she doesn't let the pain show. She's always been very friendly and sweet. I can't believe anybody would try and hurt my little girl.

Rin's mom: Somebody had to have kidnapped my child and her friends. Rin lives a good life, she never get abused and I never push her away. I love her so much, that's my only child. She's my baby. She always gets loved when she's home with me and her father. There's no way she ran away.

There you have it Tom, in other news.....

Kagome turned the TV off because she was heartbroken. She didn't relize that they missed her that much, and how bad it affected her to watch it. Not knowing if she would ever see her mom again. She tried to bet up to take a breather, but found that quite difficult to accomplish. For you see, Inuyasha had his arms rather tightly around Kagome. Well isn't this just lovely? She thought as she tried to get away from Inuyasha.

First Kagome tried to scoot away from Inuyasha. That didn't do any good because all he did was scoot closer to her. She tried to twist her body and push him off. All he did was hold on to her and put his head into her neck. She tried to put his arms on his side but they always seemed to go back on her waist. Ok this isn't working. What's wrong with him? Kagome's thoughts where interupted when Inuyasha's lips came down on hers. He nibbled on her bottom lip a little then opened his eyes. I so hate to admit it, but his eyes are beautiful. She thought. Inuyasha smiled at her then leaned down and gave her a quick kiss. Kagome blushed.

"Good morning beautiful." Inuyasha said, stroking her hair.

"H-hi Inuyasha." Inuyasha smiled.

"Well you don't seem happy to see me. Tell me something, why were you crying Meme??" He asked getting up.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Kagome said. Inuyasha chuckled.

"Sure you don't. I'm gonna get in the shower.... you're welcome to join me if you want." Kagome gave him a 'have you lost your mind' look. Inuyasha laughed.

"It was only a suggestion." He said before he left into the bathroom.

Meanwhile

Sango was up for a while now. When she woke up, Miroku was there to greet her. She got a quick shower and changed out of her other clothes and put on some new ones the guys were 'oh so fortunate' to buy. Even though it was a size too small and too tight. After she was done dressing... and slapping Miroku for touching her, she was lead into what looked like the living room where she saw six other guys and Rin with Seshomaru.

"Rin!!" Sango yelled as she ran to give her friend a hug, and she did.

"Sango, I was so worried about you." Rin looked back at the guys to see that they were a good distance away before she whispered to Sango, "Do you have any idea what's going??"

"I have no idea Rin," Sango whispered back, "But have you seen Kagome anywhere."

"Do you honestly think that I can't hear your conversation." They both heard Sesshomaru say. Both girls gulped. "Even though I could barely make out, I can still hear you." Sesshomaru smiled as he walked up to Rin. He went to go touch her cheek but Sango stood in front of her. "How cute," Sesshomaru said amused. "But to answer your question Rin, Kagome is fine and she'll be with us in a few minutes....that is, if Inuyasha can control himself." After those words left his mouth, Rin & Sango looked at each other for a second before walking back to the rooms to find Inuyasha's room. To bad for them there were six men blocking the door to the hall way.

"Please ladies, Sesshomaru was just playing around." Miroku said. "Kagome is fine... & I do mean fine." Miroku smiled for a second until.....

(POW)

"Stupid pervert." A voice said, after giving Miroku a punch to the head.

"Inuyasha, what was that for??" Inuyasha looked a little pissed and Kagome was red all over from the compliment. Rin and Sango gave her each a hug.

"Kagome are you ok??" Sango asked. Kagome smiled nervously.

"Ofcourse I am Sango."Kagome said.

"Did Inuyasha try anything with you??" Rin asked.

"Besides sexually harassed me, nope nothing really." Kagome looked back to Inuyasha to see him staring at her, like a lost puppy needing comfort from his owner. Kagome blushed then turned the other way facing Rin and Sango again. She also saw that all the guys were discusing some important matter but wondered what it was.

"Did any of you to see the news this morning?" Kagome asked. Tears went down their eyes, as of saying yes.

"I miss my mom, she looked really scared." Rin said. Sango took Rin's hand in hers.

"We're gonna be alright Rin. We're gonna get out of here and see them again." Rin smiled slightly.

Suddenly, the girls saw the guys coming toward them.

"Let's go." Sesshomaru said. He went to grab Rin until Kagome stopped him.

"Oh no. I don't think so. Where are you taking her?" Kagome asked. Sesshomaru glared at Kagome for a split second.

"I am not taking her anywhere. We are taking you girls down town. The Southside of Tokyo."

"And may I ask why?"

"No, you may not."

"Well isn't that just to bad, why??" Sesshomaru turned to Inuyasha.

"No need to say anything Sesshomaru." Inuyasha said before picking Kagome up over his shoulder.

"Oh come on not this again. Put me down already." Rin and Sango would've helped but they were blocked off by the other guys. Kagome saw Inuyasha and herslef go into an elevator. When the door closed, he put her down.

"Inuyasha what are yo-" She was caught off by Inuyasha's lips. Oh God!!! She thought as he deepen the kiss. He put her hands around his neck, she kept them in place. He pushed her against the wall before he pressed the down button. They were on the tenth floor, they would have awhile before they reached the first. Inuyasha kissed Kagome passionately, and rested his hands on her hips. It felt wonderful to her. Despite how she felt about Inuyasha, his kisses would ease all the pain. Inuyasha left her lips and went down to her neck and deeply inhaled her scent.

"God Kagome, what do you do to me?" Inuyasha moaned out. Without thinking, Kagome brought him into another kiss. She didn't care what his reaction would be, she wanted no more then to feel his hands all around her and his lips against her. Inuyasha was indeed shocked at her behavior, but pleased from the results. But he knew he had to stop, for he would not be responsible for his actions. Inuyasha pulled away then looked into Kagome's chocolate eyes. They were so beautiful, and held so much emotion. Inuyasha his flashed red for a second. He pecked her one more time on the lips before bringing his lips to her pressure point.

"This will hurt for a second." He whispered.

"Wha-" She felt pain on her shoulder, blood seeping through before she blanked out.
