Chapter 2
Kagome opened her eyes slowly and stretched out on her sleeping mat. She yawned loudly and turned onto her side to see Riana still sleeping soundly.
'What a poor little girl, losing her parents!' she thought.
Kagome stood up and set another blanket on top of Riana since the weather was starting to get chilly. Kagome walked sleepily out of the small room and into the main one, seeing that Inuyasha was awake and staring out of the window with a confused look on his face.
"What's the matter Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. She walked over to him and sat down by his feet, leaning against the wall.
Inuyasha stared down at Kagome before deciding to sit down next to her. They just sat there in silence for a couple of minutes until Kagome decided to speak up.
"Well?" she asked again. "Is something wrong?"
"Keh," Inuyasha replied.
"Inuyasha, I need to know what's going on." Kagome pleaded.
Inuyasha looked away from Kagome and answered stubbornly, "I wasn't trying to hurt that stupid girl last night."
"Then why were you holding a knife?"
Inuyasha snapped his head in her direction and screamed, "Because I took it away from her before she could stab me!"
"Honestly Inuyasha! Why would a little girl want to stab you?? It just doesn't make any sense!" Kagome responded.
"So you're going to believe a girl who you just met instead of me?!?" he yelled.
Kagome looked at the doorway and saw Riana standing there with a timid glance.
Kagome whispered to Inuyasha, "Listen, I don't want to fight right now! Just drop it."
Kagome stood up and grabbed Riana's tiny hand, leading her outside to get some water. Inuyasha glared at Kagome's retreating back and growled to himself. He stood up and was about to follow them when he realized that Kaede's knife was missing.
'Did I misplace it after holding it last night?' Inuyasha thought. 'No. I remember setting it back with that old woman's stuff.' Finally it dawned on him. Inuyasha ran to the room Riana and Kagome had slept in and ripped the sleeping mats off the floor, tossing them in different directions. Lying under where Riana's mat had been was the knife that she had attempted to use on him last night.
"What is this freaking girl's problem??" Inuyasha fumed. He snatched the knife from the ground and put it back where it belonged.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Dark clouds had ascended over the village, causing gallons of rain to be poured over everyone. Kagome had been playing with Riana outside while Inuyasha watched them from a high tree, but the rain had forced them to go back inside Kaede's hut.
"Whose hut it this anyways?" Riana asked Kagome as she settled herself by the fire to dry off.
Kagome exclaimed cheerfully, "It's Lady Kaede's hut; she is away right now though, doing some kind of traditional journey the priestesses have to do around here."
The rain started to pound so hard with fierce winds blowing that the whole hut started to sway a little bit.
"Is it going to cave in on us??" Riana shrieked, clutching Kagome around the waist and hiding her face from the storm.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes at the girl's act of being scared.
Luckily Kagome didn't notice Inuyasha as she patted the top of the girl's head and said in a soothing voice, "Don't worry Riana! It will be alright."
Kagome held Riana in a tight hug as the storm raged on, lasting for a few hours. At last it had quieted down when it became pitch black outside. Kagome and Riana had both fallen asleep in front of the fire, but Inuyasha had stayed awake. He didn't dare take his eyes off of the little girl, in case she was planning on trying anything again.
Inuyasha decided to put the fire out, so he stood up and poured water over it. Just as he was about to walk back to his spot, he felt something grab his leg. He looked down and saw Riana's hand fasted around his ankle. She was looking up at him with the same demented smile on her face from the night before.
"Must--tear--skin; want--to--spill--blood! Kill Inuyasha!!" she muttered.
"What the-!?!" Inuyasha exclaimed. He was cut short though as Riana's grip on his ankle tightened, using as much strength as a demon, and flung him into the wall. Inuyasha slammed against the wall, although he didn't stop there. He went straight through the wall and into a huge pile of mud just outside of Kaede's hut.
