Thanks For ready this! Oh I do not own Inuyasha

Chapter Fourteen:

Kagome sat as two ladies from the village ran around her with all kinds of kimonos. "This one brings out her eyes." "Yes but this one shows that lovely figure of hers." The two went back and forth like this for a while. Kagome sat and looked out the window. Inuyasha was playing with the town kids. He was softer now and the kids found him a lot of fun. Then two little girls came running in to see her. "What are you two doing here?" "We came to see how lady Kagome was doing." Kagome smiled and waved them to her. They sat around her and they talked. "So how's it going?" "Well they have gone through so many outfits that it's making my head hurt." The kids laughed as the two women went back to work on the finding the right outfit. "Want to run off for a while with me?" Kagome whispered to the girls. "Sure." They whispered back. Kagome smiled as she slowly got up. She pushed the two kids out the window that was in the back of the hut. Then she waited till she saw that both women were deep into the clothes. Kagome then jumped out the window without making a sound.

Once out the three started to walk around the town making sure not to be seen. "You know your going to get into trouble." "Yeah but I'm not made out for all this. I like to play in the rain and fight not sit and be like a doll." The girls laughed again as they went to play.

Inuyasha heard the women from Kagome's hut scream and he ran to see what was going on. He came in to find that Kagome was gone. "She must have gone out the window to get away from all this." Inuyasha then saw the faces of two very angry women. "You need to go find her." "Kagome just needed some time away from all this." "We have to have her ready by five." "That's right and she still needs hair and put color on." Inuyasha was starting to feel the anger from the woman in front of him. "Fine I'll go look for her." "Thanks and take the others with you." Inuyasha walked out to find the others coming up. "Why were they screaming?" "Kagome got away from them." Sango giggled. "Come on we need to drag her back." Inuyasha walked to back window. "Smells like she has escaped with two little girls." Sango and Miroku started to walk the back way of the village as Kouga and Inuyasha followed Kagome's scent. "We should be able to trap her in the middle." Miroku laughed out. None of them really wanted to do this but the town needed it so they went.

Kagome and the girls were about to take some food that was sitting out for the party when some towns people appeared. Kagome jumped back and so did the girls. "Now Kagome is around here somewhere so start looking." "Those ladies didn't waste any time getting the word out that I was gone." "Kagome what should we do?" "Come on." Kagome took the kids' hands and they started to run thought the alleyways of the huts. They stopped every time they heard voices. Kagome was starting to think she would get to the river before she was found when she heard the kids scream. "RUN! IT"S INUYASHA!" Kagome smiled as she let go of the kid's hands. She started to run as Kouga and Inuyasha were coming up on her fast. "Why are you making us run?" "I wont go back there!" Kagome ran as fast as she could but could feel the two coming up on each side of her. Kagome then fell to the floor letting Inuyasha and Kouga crashed into each other. Kagome laughed as she got up and started to run looking back she ran right into Sango. She fell back on her butt and looked at her friends. "Time to go back Kagome." Miroku said as he pointed a finger at her. "I wont go!" Kagome sat not moving. The others could she the game she was playing and they laughed. "Kirara." Kirara grew to her demon size and picked Kagome up and started to walk with her in her mouth back to the hut. "You guys suck you know that!" The others walked behind laughing till they got to the hut. The two ladies were waiting with five others. "Come now lady Kagome enough with the games we must get you ready." They took her by the arms and pulled her inside. Two ladies then looked at the others. "You all should go get ready since you are her guards for the night." Inuyasha and Kouga ran off as Miroku and Sango went to Kaede's.

As day was starting to fade men from all over started to show up. Sango was next to Miroku in a black kimono with red flowers. Miroku was in a black kimono as well. Kouga and Inuyasha showed up looking as they always did but they were clean. "So you think she'll run for it?" Miroku asked. "No she knows how important this is to them." Inuyasha answered. The door to the hut opened and two ladies walked out. "We would like to present Lady Kagome!" Kagome walked out with her hair up showing off her face. Flowers sat upon her head. Her lips were red and she wore a pink kimono with black roses over it. She looked like a doll who was about to tip over. She took a step and lost her footing. Right before she hit the ground she felt two hands take her waist. She was pulled back up to see Inuyasha's face. "You better take our hands so you don't fall." Kagome smiled as she took Inuyasha's hand and then Kouga's.

They walked into the main part of the village and it was full of people. They all stopped when Kagome walked in and then they started to cheer for her. She turned red then bowed to thank them. "I really need something to eat." "Oh, wait here I'll get you something." Kouga walked off to get something to eat for Kagome. Inuyasha was left holding his Kagome's hand. She was beautiful that was sure. She smiled at him and wanted to tell him how nice it was to be with him when a tall man walked up. "Lady Kagome I am so glad to meet you." "Oh hello. I see you have come for this little party." "Oh, I came to see you. Do you think the half-breed would mind if we talked alone?" Kagome tried not to yell. "His name is Inuyasha, I think you have said enough." Kagome pulled on Inuyasha and they walked off. The town had Kagome sit as they started to put on shows for her. She sat eating some food when another man walked up. "I have come to see if I might meet the great Kagome." "Oh, well nice to meet you." The man sat down next to her and smiled. Kouga wanted to hit him but Inuyasha took his arm. "Don't." Kouga pulled away and glared at the man. "I heard a nasty rumor that you might have fallen in love with someone you work with." "What would be so nasty about that?" "Well Kagome if that was true it would have to be Inuyasha or Kouga. I know the monk is with the demon slayer." "I see well my heart does as it wants." "Know Kagome that I will have you as my bride." Kagome looked into the man's eyes. He was burning with hate and greed. "I see." Kagome looked over at Sango. "My lord will you please excuse me I need Kagome for a moment." The man got up and walked away as Sango sat next to Kagome. "So how are you doing?" "Fine." Kagome wished she could tell them that her heart belonged to someone but really it didn't. "We may love each other but could Inuyasha ever really be with just me? Someday he might just leave and never come back." Inuyasha looked at Kagome and his heart ached. He wanted to tell her how much he loved her and wanted to be with her.

"Inuyasha?" Inuyasha jumped when Kaede walked up next to him. "Old lady you need to warn a person when you do that." "Sorry mind if I sit with you?" 'No, here take my chair I like to stand." Kaede sat and looked at Inuyasha and could see that he wanted a way to show how much he wanted Kagome. "You really have left my sister in the past. You know that you want to live. Inuyasha you must now prove it."

The party went on and many more men came to win Kagome but each time Kagome found something wrong with them. Kaede then felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see a young man. "Lady Kaede I need your help." "What can I do for you?" "I need a ring for the girl I have been seeing. I want to ask for her hand." "Oh well…… I will take you in the morning to the cave." The man thanked her then walked away. "Inuyasha I would like it if you went with me." "What? Why?" "I am old and I would like some help getting to the cave." "Fine." Inuyasha smiled deep inside he had heard about these rings now he would have a chance to see what they were all about.
