I have returned! In a very short time too. Well, I wanted to say some things but I've forgotten half of them. One of them is that I expected or more like wished for more than two reviews but I am very thankful for my two reviewers. Superstitious, and pinkyluv, thanks a lot guys!

Also (and lastly) here's the closest thing I have to a homepage. I would really love to make some friends from this website through there: please, don't be shy and talk to me.

Ch.12: My Life is a Lie

The now cornered Kagome stared in horror at the red orb's that were her husband's eyes.

He moved closer to her and grabbed her arms, slowly digging his enlarged claws into her thin arms, drawing crimson blood out.

"Inuyasha, that hurts!" she said in pain

The way he was holding her and the position she was in against the wall made it impossible for her to escape.

"I told you to stay away!" he repeated with a raspy and menacing voice

"I'm sorry… I didn't know" she pleaded.

His grip got tighter as he dug his claws further into her flesh.

Kagome's feet began to slip towards the floor but not without dragging him with her since apparently he had been using her as a support to stand up.

Once on the floor his grip loosened and she began to squirm away from his hold, causing her to fall completely unto the ground. Inuyasha's blood stained claws glimmered in the light reflected by the moon. He sat on both knees with his head staring at the floor. Kagome managed to see that Inuyasha had removed his shirt, revealing his toned torso and a tattoo that appeared on his back that due to the darkness the young woman couldn't identify.

His silver hair covered his face and for a moment he remained in that position.

He was trembling and Kagome realized that he was trying to control his body. She saw as his nails dug into the floor, scratching it.

Not knowing what to do Kagome thought she should just runaway, at least that's what her body and mind were telling her.

She began to slip away from him, dragging her body slowly away so as to not attract his unwanted attention towards her. When he began to move again she stopped in fear that he would attack her once more.

But instead he brought his head towards the floor, laying it there. He then wrapped his hands around it as though trying to hide his shame.

Kagome knew she should've run away, that this was perhaps her best opportunity to do so…but her heart stopped her. Slowly she used her bleeding arms to pull herself up and remained staring at Inuyasha before moving towards him.

Once she was standing beside his cradled body she kneeled next to him. Cautiously she lifted her arm and placed her hand on his. She moved closer towards him and with her other hand she moved his head closer towards her.

She embraced him, laying her head gently on top of his.

Inuyasha, I don't understand why this is happening to you…Inuyasha I don't know who you are, but I'm willing to learn…Inuyasha…I promise I will stand beside you…

In her head Kagome knew that she had just met a side of Inuyasha that he had never intended to how her or the world. She knew that by approaching him now she had sworn secrecy, and to this promise Kagome would remain loyal to.

Inuyasha began to move and with his right hand grabbed the skirt of her night dress. As if in pain he closed his hand into a fist and clutched unto it for the remainder of the night.

At dawn, when the first light of morning appeared in the little window of the room Kagome opened her eyes. She wasn't sure when or how she'd fallen asleep after what had happened the night before and it didn't really matter.

By this time Inuyasha was no longer beside her. In fact, he was no longer in the room. Kagome looked around the small dormitory and noticed Inuyasha's ripped shirt on the floor not too far from her. She also noticed some splatters of blood lying beside it as well as on it.

She slowly began to stand up although the pain in her arms was still sensitive. The blood that had been dripping from them had now ceased flowing and had dried on her skin.

Once she was on her feet she began to walk slowly towards the door. But before she left it she picked up her husband's stained shirt and took it with her. She then walked towards her room. Once there, she moved towards the far side of it where there was a small pot with water.

With the aide of a small towel Kagome proceeded to dip it into the water and carefully began to remove the dried blood. A task that proved to be difficult as well as painful.

Once done, her tired brown eyes searched around the room. Everything appeared the same as before she had left.

Guess Inuyasha hasn't been here…

Kagome walked outside so that the morning sun could warm her. A gentle breeze was blowing the dewed flowers around as well as Kagome's long raven hair. It flowed around her face, creating a motion that somehow refreshed Kagome.

Kagome stretched her stiff body and walked around the small garden.

Where could Inuyasha be? She thought to herself

After a few moments slipped by Kagome walked towards a tree in the yard and leaned against it, staring off into the morning sky.

From a distance, the young demon watched her with his now golden eyes. Inuyasha sat perched on a tree branch he'd found only moments before Kagome had appeared in the garden. He then switched his attention to the same sky Kagome was staring at but it wasn't long before he returned his attention to her.

Now she knows…a part of my secret

Inuyasha remained watching her. He watched as her hair flowed around her calm face. Even after what she had seen the night before, Kagome kept a peace within her. A peace which Inuyasha felt just from watching her. And he watched her until she finally went back inside the house and he could see her no longer.

Well, it feels like I wrote a lot but it doesn't appear to be so. I would write more but I don't think that I should. If I keep going with the rest of the day then I'll ruin the importance of the night. I will try to update as soon as possible but tomorrow will be a very busy day considering I have to buy my mom, and bro's presents for Christmas (I'm making my dad's) and also go to my friend's little sister's birthday party. Life gets harder by the minute but even so I'll try to have an update as soon as possible. Oh, and pleeeease REVIEW, preeetty please!!!

PS: I had been discouraged with Inuyasha for a long time now (due to its inconclusive ending) but about a week or so ago I read on Wikipedia that a new Inuyasha series was going to start in Japan on 2007. I hope it's true, cause if it is then I am very excited!

Till next time,
