ARGH, hold those rocks right there! I know my updates are to infrequent, even for my own taste. But to throw in windows? Ouch guys…
Anyway, I don't own anything but the idea of the story… unfortunately.
Yuri went to Ao, when he realized Kagome didn't have a mount.
"Should we walk back Kagome?" He asked, "That way everyone can keep up." To his surprise Kagome shook her head.
"No Yuri, I'll travel in the usual way, so we can be at the castle in a few hours." Kagome said, moving to Inuyasha. "That is, unless my gallant rescuer doesn't want to help me." She winked at Inuyasha before smiling to Yuri. Inuyasha just gave a hmpf, before offering her his back to travel upon.
"We'd best get moving then. Yuri, me and Kagome will meet you at the castle okay? I get the feeling that breakfast wouldn't be an unnecessary luxury for her at this moment." Inuyasha said. Before he could take off Stoffel appeared.
"Wait, heika, I didn't mean it that way. I don't know what spell the witch used, but I can see why you would keep her close. She is dangerous for the country. I am very concerned for your wellbeing when you are near this demon slayer." Stoffel panted, after recovering from the shock of what happened in the castle. Kagome just raised her eyebrows at him, before leaning forward. She was still exhausted from their previous trip, and most people she encountered here had youkai in them. It was hard keeping all their energies from mixing with her own pure energy without harming them.
"So now I'm dangerous?" Kagome said, "First you kidnap me, then when you can't control me I become dangerous? What is up with that if I may ask?"
"Silence you… you… Heika, can't you see I am only saying this in your best interest?" Stoffel said.
"Kagome is my oldest friend from Earth, the place I grew up in. I have nothing more to fear from her then from Conrad. She is the most loyal and honest person I ever met Stoffel." Yuri said. "Inuyasha, I think it would be best for you to go now with Kagome. We'll handle the rest here." Before he had finished his sentence he saw Inuyasha already put Kagome down.
"Peh. You didn't think I'd let him talk about Kagome in that way did you? When I met her she was the weakest thing I met. She couldn't aim straight, couldn't run far and hard. She was basically a weak and frail human. Now though, her aim is true, her shots are strong. She can run as far and hard as Sango, a trained demon hunter, and contain her holy power as good as Miroku, a monk. This guy first takes her away from me and then says she's something worthless?" Inuyasha said. "Sorry, but I'm not going anywhere before I thought him a lesson."
"And what do you think you can do young boy?" Stoffel said, not knowing what was going on exactly. But the fact the boy knew demon hunters meant he was probably from a different nation, scouting for invasion (ahh Stoffel, how I love to make fun of you) or worse: assassination of the maoh. Then he saw something that really scared him. The rusty sword in the boys scabbard grew bigger as he drew it. He could sense a lot of Maryoku from the sword, all directed towards him. "Wh.. what is that?" He said, taking a step back.
"This is the Tetsaiga. It was forged from my fathers fang, the greatest inuyoukai to have ever existed. Later on it was reinforced with my fang, making it more powerful then before." Inuyasha said, "And this is also the sword that slays a thousand demons in one stroke." At his words Stoffel moved even further back.
"Inuyasha, no." Kagome said. "It isn't worth it to put Yuri's country through a civil war because one of the lords didn't do a check upon whom he had before him." Kagome walked towards Inuyasha, placing one hand on his sword hand, calming him down. Inuyasha hmph'd again and put the Tetsaiga back. Then he offered Kagome his back again and said: "I'll see you at the castle Yuri" before disappearing into the woods.
"She has a tight check on him." Conrad said. "Heika, I think it is in our best interest to leave now as well." Yuri just nodded, mounting Ao.
"Stoffel, if you ever harm Kagome in any way, I will find you and I will make you pay." Yuri said, before turning Ao away from Stoffel and heading back to Blood Pledge Castle. Wolfram and Conrad followed him immediately, leaving Stoffel to his own devices.

"Kagome, why didn't you make your distress known sooner? I could have gotten you back before they even were at the castle." Inuyasha said while running back to Yuri's castle.
"Because you also needed your sleep. When I woke up, I knew something was wrong and I signaled you immediately. Besides, you came on time, and I want to thank you for that. I don't know if I could have held the role of ignorant girl for much longer." Kagome replied.
"Well, don't scare me like that again please. I don't want to lose you to anything or anyone." Inuyasha said.
"Not even Kikyo?" Kagome asked, yawning.
"Not even her." Inuyasha muttered, but Kagome later on couldn't tell if he had really said that, as she had fallen asleep and awoke when they were near the castle.
So, it might not be the best, but of all the kkm characters I really dislike Stoffel. Sorry for those that like him… but to me he aint that good. Also, yes, Inuyasha loves Kagome, I like them together.
As always, leave a nice review about how you liked it. Tell me if you see points of improvement and what you think will happen next. Cya in the next chapter!
