Confusion

Disclaimer: I don't own Inu-kun, nor any of the others involved in Rumiko Takahashi's mind. But I wish I did...sob

Kira: Hello once again, konnichiwa! Wow. I've been gone for so long, and I apologize. I've been grounded from just about everything for two weeks, and that includes the internet. Gomen. I will be more punctual next time (if I haven't lost readers, that is...). Anyway, just to let you all know, a couple people guessed at who my mystery character is gonna be, and only ONE of you guessed correctly. grin And you know who you are...maybe. I won't tell, you'll just have to read and then scream with delight in a review or something. Hee hee. Just to let you all know, though, this is the lemon chapter. Okay, not lemon exactly, but it's gonna start that way. Er, more like a Lemonhead. Or a lemon jello-shot...with Everclear...wince If any of you have a problem, please skip this chapter. I don't want to offend anyone. Just a warning. Anyway, I'll chat with you all at the end of the chapter. Please review; I love getting feedback from you! Ja ne!

Chapter ten...

"Inuyasha," she whispered, "nothing stands between us now. Nothing at all." Inuyasha heard but did not hear the poisoned words seep in his heart. Here was Kagome, resurrected once more, this time to stay with him forever. He held her away for a moment, desperate to make sure that it was truly Kagome in his arms. She smiled up at him, though the sparkle of genuine innocence was no longer glowing in her eyes. Without a second to back down, he took her lips with his own, crushing them with a fervor that she matched. They knelt together in the bloodstained soil, clutching, grasping, straining to feel each other. Even air was unimportant.

The hanyou let himself get dragged away into a haze of bliss. He did not care for anything. He could stay forever where he was, his only movement in his groping hands and exploring tongue. Every hidden fantasy, every dream that had tormented him was finally brought to reality. Easily, he dragged his hands across her body, easily, he lowered her to the ground. Easily, his yukata slid from his body, easily, her fingers slipped to the thick knot at his waist. Easily...too easily.

Kikyo laughed to herself. It was so perfect. Disguised with the young girl's living flesh gave her powers and the fulfillment of her desires. Of course, she would have to train him to love her again as Kikyo, the woman of old. But for now...

Inuyasha was intoxicated by her scent, her sweet, virginal scent. It must have been some horrible nightmare. She was still his Kagome, still kept ready for him alone. She was so soft, so pliable; he almost wondered why he had not let his emotions, his soul free sooner. She was so willing to let him have her. She was nectar, a flower delicately opening for him to drink from. And so he drowned.

He grew hard and stiff against her, painfully so. He whimpered softly as his manhood rubbed against the soft curls that clouded her thighs. She murmured wordlessly as she stroked his hair. With a muffled groan, she opened her legs, sliding one up around his waist. Inuyasha gritted his teeth, clutching at her shoulders. He pressed his mouth hard on her neck, then trailed kisses down to her breasts.

A hoarse moan rattled in her throat, urging him to continue his ministrations. His body ignited by the fresh sweat that came from her passion, he opened his mouth over her soft flesh to lessen the fire in him. Her nipples peaked, hardening against his tongue. Her fingers dug deep in his back, intensifying his pleasure.

Panting, he lifted his gaze to her hooded eyes and moved his hands to her hips. A triumphant smile graced her lips, and he wondered in the space of a single heartbeat if there wasn't anything sinister behind it. Her eyes held no answer, and it passed from his mind easily as the instinct to couple intensified. Impatiently, he thrust at her entrance, growing frustrated when he did not penetrate immediately.

Kikyo laughed aloud, then, amused at his immature level of enthusiasm. Calmly, she slid her hand over his member and guided it to the awaiting void that would claim his willing soul. Victory glowed in her eyes as his hips lifted to thrust.

A sudden blast of wind startled Inuyasha, causing him to fall to the other side of Kagome. He looked up only to see a figure whom nightmares could not make worse: Koga, enraged and glowing with hate. The wolf demon's chest heaved as he glowered at the half-naked hanyou. He did not care to notice the exasperated sigh that rasped from Kagome's lips, nor the roll of her eyes. In fact, he did not even notice the faint but steadily changing scent of his desired mate. He had but one thought: to kill the foul cretin who dared to fondle, to even consider trying to seduce, his beloved Kagome.

His claws extended from his fingers like knives and thick fur began to gloss over his finely muscled body as he transformed. Inuyasha gasped, never having seen Koga change, unaware that he could. The full demon crouched low to the ground, his jaw growing longer and more sharply armed with jaggedly sharp teeth. A low, almost inaudible rumble rippled from his snarling jowls.

"You shall pay for your treachery, you bastard half demon," Koga roared. His eyes glowed molten red as he crouched, gnashing his teeth in his fury. "I shall send you to hell, you won't get the chance to be sorry for what you tried to do!" The words barely had time to be heard before the monster wolf lunged, his jaws aimed for Inuyasha's throat.

Kira: nervous laugh Heh, heh. sweet raptured light was correct (you go, girl!). I wanted to say earlier that I don't hate Kikyo half as much as I ought to. I read someone's summary of the third IY movie, and he said a lot of people hate Kikyo because it's popular. Honestly, I felt really sorry for her, and had this idea that if Kagome grew up, she'd probably look the same way, and might even have some of that cool maturity. I don't know. I use her as a villain because, yes, she had trust issues. I really think my interpretation works. Inu-kun didn't go after her, just the jewel. She wanted revenge. She needed a shrink. Lol. I'm not preaching to anyone, nervously jumps off her soapbox just giving my POV.

Fair word of warning, the next chapter is a bloody one. Yeah, yeah, I promised that last time. But I really did have a new character, you have to give me that! BTW, if any of my lovely underclassmen chums are reading this, sorry it's so harsh! (They all think I'm such a good sweet person, and maybe I am in RL. Just not when I'm writing fics, I guess!) Anyway, I'm gonna advertise another author (you all can still read Kitsune hanyou, she's one of my fave's.). Everyone, sweet raptured light is one of the best authors I've read in a while. I don't even really go for the modernized (or unusual genre) fan fics. I prefer the ones that stay true to the originator's settings. But there are a few that just get a hold of me, and sweet raptured light is one of those gifted authors...that and I drew a pic for her, and I felt like bragging. grin I'm gonna stop yakking now. I hope you all keep reading my fics. I'm gonna get off the Inu-kun sets, though, after I finish this and one other idea. Then I will probably move into Alice 19th or Rurouni Kenshin. I'm not sure yet. But, yeah, review my story, please! Ja ne!
