-1Chapter 11: When Intelligence Fails
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any other references.
The rays of the sun shone through the red curtains of a young half demons room. Landing on the beautiful face of a young raven haired women, she stirred slightly and then slowly opened her eyes. She was soon very much aware of the strong muscular arm around her waist. She recognized the clawed hand attached to it and smiled to herself. She felt so safe with him, it's amazing she lasted so long without him.
Carefully shifting around, she managed to lift his arm off of her and slide out of his grasp. Carefully replacing herself with a pillow so he wouldn't notice. She smiled as he clung to the pillow as if it was his life line.
She grabbed her clothes and walked into the bathroom. She turned the water on and then stepped in letting the warm water wash over her body. The warm pulsing water released the knots in her back and shoulders helping her relax. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back as the water poured. Images of the night before began flashing through her mind. She snapped her eyes open and gasped.
"Why is this bothering me." She asked herself. She sighed and turned the water off. Stepping out of the shower, she walked in front if the mirror and wiped the steam off. Looking at herself for a few minutes she breathed deeply and then began getting ready.
He began to stir as he heard the water run. He reached for the warmth he fell asleep with but only grasped air. He groaned.
"Pain in the ass." He groaned. "Always gotta get up earlier then everyone else, causing mass chaos. " He groaned again. "Always gotta be different, conformity is a good thing sometimes ya know!!" he finished yelling out loud. The cracked open a little.
"Did you say something?" She asked trying not to laugh knowing full well what he said. She heard him groan again and giggled.
Inuyasha slowly rose from the bed and rubbed the sleep from his eyes. Standing up he walked to the closet and pulled out his clothes for the day. As he came out of the closet Kagome came out of the bathroom wearing a black mini skirt and matching jacket. Inuyasha's jaw dropped.
"Like what you see?" She asked noticing him staring.
"Damn." was all he could say. She smiled and walked over to him giving him a peck on the lips. Walking away she headed out the door and downstairs.
At school
Kagome and Inuyasha stepped out of the car and made their way toward their friends. Inuyasha wrapped his arm around her and she smiled. All of a sudden they heard cat calls and whistles coming from behind them. Inuyasha was ready to whip around and take out whoever was gocking at his Kagome.
They turned around and Kagome's face lit up. Before them were two women a tall brunette that wore a black tank top and ripped blue jeans. Next to her was a shorter white haired girl who wore a pair of black jeans and blue tank top.
"Oh my god. Kagura, Kahnna." Kagome yelled running up to the two girls. They shared a hug. "What are you guys doing here?"
"Nothing really we just missed you that's all." Kagura said jokingly. The three girls laughed. Inuyasha walked over to the girls and wrapped his arm around her again.
"Oh he Yash, this is Kagura and Kahnna. Their my band mates." Kagome explained. "Guys this is Inuyasha, my boyfriend." Before anything else could be said the bell rang and they headed off to class.
--First Period--
Inyasha and Kagome walked into first period together and sat with their usual group.
"Hey guys who were those girls you were talking to this morning?" Sango asked.
"Oh there my band mates from America." Kagome explained. Just as she said that said girls walked in. Walking past Naraku Kagura glared at him and then sat next to Kagome with Kahnna in front of her.
"I see he's here." Kagura said. Kagome nodded. "Dumb bastard."
"He's your cousin." Kagome stated.
"Doesn't mean we gotta like him." Kahnna said.
"Wait a minute." Inuyasha said. "You two are related to that greasy haired sleeze bag."
"Unfortunately." Kahnna replied.
"Did we apologize yet for our laps in judgement?" Kagura asked.
"Every time we talk about it." Kagome replied. Everyone looked confused.
"Laps in judgement?" Sango questioned.
"Yea, we were dumb enough to think that Kagome, being the kind and caring soul that she is, could actually change that cold hearted jackass." Kagura explained.
"I guess there's just something's even saints like Kagome can't fix." Kahnna said. Kagura nodded in agreement.
"Anyway, are you guys going on the school trip on Monday?" Kagome asked trying to change the subject.
"Yea we can't wait." Kagura replied. "It'll be like that winter we spent in Colorado."
"Oh yea, that was the best wasn't it?" Kagome said gushing. The three girls laughed.
"Wow you guys had a lot of adventures." Ayame said.
"You have know idea." Kagome said. "We were hell on wheels."
"Totally, we tortured teachers, crashed parties, and totally rebelled." Kahnna explained.
"Man I'd love to hear those stories." Sango said. The three girls smiled.
"Well we'd love to tell you." Kagura said. "We love passing on our experiences to other people."
"Especially people so willing to hear how stupid we acted sometimes." Kagome said.
Inuyasha sat back and listened to his girlfriend go on and on with her friends about her life in America. He loved the look in her eye when she was telling her stories. It was as if she just came alive. He really had to thank Kagura and Kahnna later for cheering her up.
Naraku descreetly watched the group of teens talking in the other corner of the room.
"Damn those stupid wenches. Always getting in my way. I guess I'll have to call in reinforcements." He thought to himself. "Prepare yourself Kagome, for I will not be denied what belongs to me."
--That Night--
"So she standing in front of Kagome's desk and she's all like 'and why don't you have your homework finished?'. and Kagome's all 'because school is practice for life, practice makes perfect and nobodies perfect so why practice.'. and the best part is she was on the honor roll." Kagura said. Everyone started laughing.
"Did you really mean that?" Kilala asked.
"Nah, I completely forgot about the assignment. And I was already having a horrible day so I decided to add fuel to the preverbal fire." They all laughed some more.
Inuyasha stood up when he saw him father beckon him into the kitchen discreetly. He walked in and found his brother and father sitting at the breakfast bar.
"What's up?" He asked.
"It's about Kagura and Kahnna." Sesshomaru said.
"What?"
"There both here under our request." Inutashio explained. "When we found out about Naraku we asked the only two people he won't mess with to come and keep an eye on him so you can focus on keeping an eye on Kagome."
"Alright then I keep that in mind." Inuyasha said.
"Listen little brother, don't cause problems unless he starts it. We don't want to provoke him." Sesshomaru said. Inuyasha nodded in understanding.
"I just want Kagome to be safe, I'm not about to do something to put her in danger." Inuyasha said.
"Good I'm glad you agree, because I've pulled some strings so you and your friends will be in the surrounding cabins. And you and Kagome will be sharing a cabin. We need to keep strict eye on her. I don't trust Naraku anymore then I trust his father and truth be told I don't trust his father at all." Inutashio explained. Inuayasha looked out the window to think for a moment. Just then Kagome walked in.
"Hey baby, we're getting ready to start the movie, ya coming." Kagome asked. He turned to her.
"Yea, I'll be in, in a minute." He replied. He took one last glance at his brother and father and then headed back into the living room. He sat on the couch next to Kagome and wrapped his arm around her. She leaned her head on his shoulder and they all began the movie.
--Sunday--
"Ok I've got my clothes all packed, and my favorite snowboard." Kagome said.
"Don't forget your guitar, MP3, and laptop." Inuyasha said.
"Got it, got it, and got it." Kagome replied.
"Then I think you've got it all." Inuyasha replied.
"Good, now what about you?" She asked.
"All done."
"Seriously?" Kagome questioned.
"Yea, don't sound so surprised." He replied wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her closer to him. She smiled and then leaned up on her toes to brush her lips against his. It only took a minute for him to respond and kiss her back. They reluctantly pulled back and smiled at each other.
"God I love being with you." Kagome said resting her head on his chest. He smiled.
"I love being with you too." He replied putting his arms around her upper body like a hug. She pulled away a little bit so she could look in his eyes.
"Inuyasha? Can I ask you something?" Kagome asked nervously.
"What's wrong?" He asked worriedly.
"Are you upset about Kagura and Kahnna being Naraku's cousin's?" She asked.
"No, why?" He asked.
"Well you seemed a little upset around them when you found out."
"At first yea, but now that I know them better I really like them."
"Are you sure?" She asked. He nodded with a smile on his face.
"I'm sure." she smiled back and then went in for another kiss.
Ring Ring Ri…
"Hello?" a tall dark man answered.
"Hey, I need your help with a little something." Naraku said.
"Really?"
"Yea really."
"Well my rates are still the same." The man said.
"Trust me if you do a good job I'll pay you double your rate." Naraku said. The man thought for a minute.
"Send me the information." they hung up.
"This ought to be very promising."
A/N: OMG! I'm so sorry I took so long to update, but I've had a lot of pressure on me at school. Anyway here it is chapter 11. Hopefully chapter 12 will come to me a lot easier. You know what to do.
