Chapter 10

Kagome continued to glare at the boy in front of her. The pain of her cuts just made her glare all the more threatening. She hid the pain from her eyes as she waited for him to leave. It was then that she felt a familiar presence coming towards her at fast speeds. Her eyes widened as she turned away from Natsume to stare into the woods. She could sense the confusion coming off of the boy, but she ignored him. As she felt the presence get closer to her, tears filled her eyes. She didn't have to wait long for a man to fly out of the bushes and into the clearing.

Kagome stared at the man for several minutes before running up to him, ignoring the pain that rushed through her body as she hugged him tight. The man immediately wrapped his arms around her as well, returning the gesture. After a few minutes, Kagome pulled back.

"I told you I'd see you again…Kouga." She smiled brightly, tears shining in her eyes. Natsume felt the jealousy grow even more within his veins when he saw how she smiled at the unknown man. He had long black hair, pulled back into a high ponytail, and bright icy blue eyes. He was wearing a regular suit and stood towering over the woman in front of him. Natsume huffed inwardly and waited for them to say something.

Kouga stared down at the woman in front of him. 'There's no way that this is her. I mean, she smells the same, but there's no way a human can live this long! She must be a reincarnation. Yes, that's it. But how did she know about Kagome's promise to me?' he was so lost in his musings that he almost didn't notice it when the girl he had just been thinking about, screamed out in pain and fell to the ground.

Kagome had been watching Kouga's eyes to see his reaction to seeing her again. She could see the doubt creep into his eyes and felt a stab at her heart. 'Who am I kidding? There's no way that he'll believe me if I tell him the truth. But I have to try.' She thought determined. She was just about to call to the wolf demon when white burning pain shot through her body. A scream escaped her throat as she fell to the ground. She was only slightly aware of the two men rushing to her side.

"Sango, are you okay?" Natsume yelled. Kouga looked up at the young boy with a questioning glance. 'Sango?' there was no doubt in his mind now that this truly was his Kagome. He pushed the young boy aside and moved in closer to the girl.

"Kagome. Kagome you have to stay awake. Tell me what's wrong." His hands grabbed her cheeks, slapping them lightly, trying to keep the miko awake.

It was Natsume's turn to be confused. 'Kagome? Who's Kagome? Who is this guy even!'

Kagome slowly forced her eyes open and looked up into bright blue eyes. "Kouga…I'm so glad you…remembered…me…" with that she gave into the darkness and passed out.

Kagome slowly forced herself awake. She had a throbbing headache and her body hurt all over. She forced her eyes open and saw a familiar ceiling. She sat up in bed and looked around her dorm room, trying to remember what had happened. 'Oh yeah, I met Kouga.'

Shakily she stood from her bed and walked out of her room, using the walls for support. She opened her door to see Shippou sitting on Kouga's lap telling him about the friends he had made. She also saw Kirara sitting next to his shoulder and Natsume standing in the corner.

"Mama!" Shippou yelled, running over to her when she saw that she was in the room. "Mama, its Kouga! He found us!" he smiled.

Kagome returned the smile and looked up at the wolf demon. She smiled a soft smile at him and waited for him to stand and walk over to her.

"Don't worry, Shippou told me all the details. Though we made sure that kid over there couldn't hear us." He whispered that last part. Kagome's smile grew as she realized just how much he had matured over the last 500 years.

"So, Kouga, what are you doing here?" she asked, walking over to the couch with him once again. Natsume moved closer, sitting in one of the chairs.

"I'm a teacher at the high school. I suddenly felt your presence and ran out of my classroom." He laughed a little bit. "I had to see if I was imagining it." He said seriously.

"Wow, you? A teacher? That's funny!" Kagome laughed.

Kouga smiled. "And what is so funny about that, hmm?"

"I just don't see you dealing with kids, that's all." She wiped the tears from her eyes.

"I'll have you know I have six pups." Kouga smiled proudly.

"No way!" Kagome screamed. "You and Ayame?" Kouga nodded with a grin. "Oh my God! I'm so proud of you, Kouga!" she hugged him again.

Natsume felt a rush of relief flow through him at that comment. 'He's already married, with kids. Jeez, there was nothing to worry about to begin with. What is going on with me?' he sighed.

Kouga laughed and hugged the girl back, not missing her flinching. He pulled back and looked her seriously in the face.

"Now, you need to tell me what happened."

Kagome inwardly flinched. 'If he knows everything, why would he even ask that with Natsume in here? Unless…' Her eyes widened as she turned to Shippou with a questioning glance. He shook his head slightly in a negative manner. Kagome sighed deeply.

"It's nothing. I just felt a little dizzy." She lied.

Kouga glared at her. "Don't lie to me, Kagome. You've never been good at lying, I can tell you are using a concealing spell, now tell me the truth."

'He called her Kagome again.' Natsume thought inwardly.

Kagome was silent for several minutes. She looked into Kouga's eyes pleadingly but he held strong. Sighing, she let the concealing spells fall. Several gasps of breath could be heard throughout the room. She was covered in blood where her cuts had opened again but were hidden from view of everyone with the spell. Her face was covered in dry blood and bruises.

Kouga stared at all her wounds for several moments before reaching forward and pulling her shirt up, exposing the hole in her side.

"Wh-what are you doing!" she screamed, blushing and trying to get away from him. Kouga held her still and inspected her cut. It was deep and bleeding like crazy. It was also a dark blackish color and looked very familiar.

Kouga turned his eyes back up to hers and glared darkly. "What the hell is this?" he screamed, shocking everyone in the room. "You better fucking tell me that these aren't what I think they are." Kagome stayed silent and lowered her head. "You mean to tell me that he's still alive?"

Kagome flinched slightly at his loud tone and simply nodded his head. She was expecting it when he exploded. "WHAT THE FUCK! YOU SAID YOU FUCKING KILLED HIM!"

"I did! Or…I thought I did." Kagome had tears in her eyes.

"Then how the hell is he still here!"

"I don't know how he's still alive! I thought I was finished with him! I had the complete jewel! Miroku's wind tunnel was gone! HOW THE FUCK WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW HE WAS STILL ALIVE? I THOUGHT I WAS DONE WITH HIM AFTER HE KILLED EVERYONE I LOVED! I LOST EVERYTHING BECAUSE OF HIM! I…just want to be done with him." Tears poured down her cheeks as she had her meltdown.

Natsume stared at the two people in the room wearily. They were shouting like crazy people and he had never seen someone as injured as she was. He just wanted to know what the fuck was going on.

Kouga stared at the girl sympathetically. "You were going to go through this again? By yourself? Why?"

"BECAUSE! Everyone went and left me and I didn't know where to find you." She continued to cry, burying her face in Shippou's fur, who had jumped into her lap.

"Oh, Kagome…" he walked over and hugged her tight. "I ran after you that day. I looked for you everywhere for years, but couldn't find you. You were gone. Eventually, I lost hope and gave up on finding you."

"Kouga, I told you not to look for me. You promised!"

Kouga was about to answer when they both heard a cough from the side of the room. They looked over to look at Natsume.

"Uh, sorry to interrupt, but does someone wanna tell me what the fuck is going on here?"
