Chapter 10: Kouga's Dinner & Junpei's Ill Luck
"Hey, hey! Stop that! Ahh! A swear if you try to dig those fangs into me one more time am going to.I said.Hey ow!" Kagome yelled as bit into her arm and in return Kouga received a blow to the back of his head by Kagome's fist. "I am not, I repeat NOT food!" Kagome yelled with a hint of annoyance. Kouga looked at the human girl in front of him and smiled. Kagome noticed the mischievous glare in his eyes and did not like it one bet. "Uh-ho." She said in almost a whisper as she watched him rush at her, she dodged his open arms and he collided into a wall, hugging it.
Kagome took this moment to escape out of the den, only to find herself on a cliff side, she gasped and looked around her, a single cave or den was dug inside the face of the cliff, long and narrow trails led to each opening to a den, below her was the forest and more trails in the side of the cliff. Some trails led to a large opening on the cliff side that appeared to be used for as gatherings for the clan or play area for the pups. A dead fire lay in the center of most of the larger openings. She looked around and saw a few ladders on the side of deep slopes that could only be reached by ladders.
She guessed the ladders went to bigger openings of the cliff side or more dens. Then she glanced down and saw the forest, beyond the forest was a large river with miniature waterfalls, and she guessed that was the Ame River and the borderlines between Inu-Yasha's Forest and Kouga's. About that time she heard a cruse and then a laugh that sounded like a mix between growls and the sound of bells. She ran down the steep trail and then to a bridge that connected on part of the cliff to the next. She did not care where those sounds came from, until she ran right into the owner of the laugh.
Kagome fall over on her butt making the bride sway side to side gently, she looked up at the wall she had ran into, she saw a woman before her with a slightly injured leg. She looked up at the face. The woman had brown hair and green eyes; she gave Kagome a bright and happy fanged grin. "Ah, so your human that stays with Inu-Yasha, and now our leaders lunch." She laughed as Kagome stood up to look at her. "I think not!" she said as she shoved past the woman only to find her in front of her again.
"Lord Kouga will not be pleased to see his dinner running off. Nor will I be pleased to see you around my half-breed." She growled and Kagome waved her hands in front of her and smiled. "Hey, hey if you want him you can have him!" Kaya growled again. "What do you think? His not good enough!" she howled in anger. "Ahh! No, no that's not what I meant!" Kagome said as a large sweat-drop formed on the back of her head. She was doomed, yep doomed.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"In-u-Ya-sh-a w-wil-l y-ou st-op? I ca-nt ta-ke th-is mu-ch lon-ger!" Shippo whined as Inu-Yasha jumped from treetop to treetop dragging the kitsune by the tail, which caused the kitsune to stutter, or gave him whip lash to make him talk like Caption Kirk from Star Trek. Inu-Yasha getting ever so irritated at the kitsune's whinnying planted the kitsune on to his shoulder. Shippo clang to him as his head started to hurt. "Th-anks."
Inu-Yasha snorted and kept going he need to get to Kagome before anything happened. He wasn't to faraway now, he could smell the okami's and if Kouga even tried to either he was going to make a new kimono out of his hide or even worse. He just hoped he would not run into Kaya, that bitch wolf had the most unbelievable crush on him and so bad that it wasn't even funny!
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"Come on, can't we just talk this over of a cup of ocha?" Kagome asked as Kaya dragged Kagome by the hair back to Kouga's den. "Ow!" Kagome cried as Kaya wrapped another layer of hair around her clawed fist. "Drop her Kaya." Kouga said as he stepped out of his den, Kaya tossed Kagome at Kouga as she let go of her raven hair. Kouga caught the young slayer in his arms and held her as he watched Kaya walk away. Kouga sighed and looked down at the girl in his arms and snickered. "So girl, lets have lunch." He said and suddenly Kagome's eyes grew wide. "Umm.let's not and say we did." She said and tried to break away from him. But he would not let go, he sled a claw down her back and held her close then leaned his head down towards her soft neck with his fangs extended to deal a painless death to his victim.
But was suddenly stopped when he saw a speck of red in the corner of his eye and then his nose conformed who the red speck belong to. "Hello, Inu- Yasha." Kouga breathed upon Kagome's neck and she shivered, but something down inside of her celebrated with joy and emotional feelings when she heard her first captures name. "Kouga, release her." Inu-Yasha growled and Kouga laughed slightly as he loosed his grip on her. "I don't understand why you came for her or even care what happens, she isn't your mate or anything." Kouga said as Kagome slipped out of his hands quickly and ran over to Inu-Yasha who eyed her. He smelt fresh blood and saw where it came from, her arm just above her elbow.
Inu-Yasha growled, "You bit her, you bastard wolf." He said in a harsh voice as Shippo jumped off Inu-Yasha's shoulder and was full of worry and concern about her wounded arm. It took Kouga a moment or two to determine what Inu-Yasha said and then he narrowed his eyes. "Look who's talking at least I know who my parents are." Kouga countered, Inu-Yasha growled angrily and his claws extended as Kouga raised an eyebrow at the sword at Inu-Yasha's side. "Why do you carry that blade? Its of no use or condition to use." He said in a confused voice, which only made Yasha even more mad and annoyed.
Yasha then attack Kouga with a quick punch to the stomach, which caused the unprepared wolf to fly into the wall. The sound and smell of a dog brought the other okami's out form their dens to watch this act and among them where Kaya, who watched in horror and confusion. "You damned piece of shit!" Kuga spat and stood up and attacked Inu-Yasha punching the inu across he face. Yasha countered with a claw strike with the okami dodged easily.
"You'll pay for what you have done you okami." Inu-Yasha growled and used his Sankon Tetsusou attack upon the okami demon that barely was able to dodge and was slashed across the shoulder. "Which should I pay for inu- shit? The land I have taken and lost or injuring the slayer?" Kouga asked as he ran around the inu to try and confusion, which succeeded and dropped kicked the hanyou, who became a hanyou surfboard for a sort time until he rolled over and caught the wolf by his ankle and throw him across the cliff side.
Kouga landed hard on his back upon the dead fire, he quickly rolled to his left as the hanyou landed upon the ground where Kouga once laid. Kouga quickly got to his feet and withdrew his sword that hanged at his side that he hardly ever used. In return Inu-Yasha withdrew his ancient blade, the blade then transformed once withdrawn. Kouga blinked in total shock, how can that old sword to that? It was beyond him as Inu-Yasha smiled happily at Kouga's confusion and rested the oversized blade over his shoulder in his arrogant way.
Kouga shock his head and swung his blade at Inu-Yasha and with that an all out sword fight went out, both k-9's received wounds from each other's blades. Kagome did not understand way a fight had started really. Was it over territory or her? No it could no be over her that was most unlikely. She watched them fight and she guessed Kouga had said something to piss Inu- Yasha off even more then before and his blade cut across Kouga's armored chest but he dodged the attack and whipped around Inu-Yasha and brought his sword down upon his back leaving behind a large and deep gash in Inu- Yasha's back. Kagome's eyes grew wide as did a certain female wolf.
They both took off down the narrow sloping trail as Kouga strikes at Inu- Yasha as Yasha thrust his blade at the male wolf. But then both blades stopped in mid action as a young okami woman and young slayer stood between the blades. Kaya stood before Inu-Yasha; the blade was only inches away from her nose. Kagome stood in front of Kouga, his blade stopped inches away from her chest. Both dogs stared at the two women in complete shock.
"Stop this." Kaya said as Kagome added her lines. "Don't even think about it." the two women stared into the eyes of the dogs they where facing. Kouga lowered his blade and sheathed it as Inu-Yasha's blade transformed back into its old battered look; he then put his away also. "Better." The two girls said at once. Kaya was the first to react after the swords where put away and wrapped her arms around the hanyou's neck. "You scared me!" she yelled as Kouga smirked at Kagome. "I changed my mind, you're going to be my mate." He announced and Kagome backed up away from him. "Like hell."
Inu-Yasha's ears twitched and struggled to get the lovesick okami woman off him. "Kouga!" he yelled Kouga was lost in his thoughts, this woman was brave and was a good fighter, he knew that cause he had fought her earlier when he had tried to eat her. She was perfect and unclaimed and he reached out to grab her when he felt a strong hand grab his wrist and snap it back. "Don't. Tough. Her." Inu-Yasha growled as Kaya made a face in disgust. "Inu- Yasha." She whined and wrapped her arms around his waist. "Come on, leave Kouga alone and let him have the human. Won't you be my mate?" she said with a small whimper and used her tail to brush under his chin.
Inu-Yasha let go of Kouga and looked at Kaya and forced her arms off his waist. "Kaya, its time you get over the crush you have on me." He said as gently as he could "Inu-Yasha." She whined and played with his silver locks. "Kaya, I mean it, am not interested in you." Yasha gently grabbed hold of Kaya's wrist and she ripped her hand away from him. "Oh, so then you would rather have a sappy human that kills our kind then me! A full blood demon that loves you."
Inu-Yasha said nothing he watched Kouga make his way towards Kagome and Shippo changed into his large, scary pink balloon thing and was biting on Kouga's pointed ear. "Kouga." He growled and Kouga growled at him and stomped past Inu-Yasha and grabbed Kaya by the wrist. "You may get flea's from the mutt." Kouga snapped and dragged a fuming Kaya off. "This isn't over Inu-Yasha!" Kaya yelled at him with a growl.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"Ow! Wench." Inu-Yasha snapped as he lay on his stomach as Kagome mended his wounded back. "Oh stop your whiny, Inu-Yasha." Kagome said in her normal tone of voice as Shippo sat in front of Inu-Yasha and making faces at him. "If you don't stop that, Shippo, am going to rip your tail off." The hanyou threatened and then yipped when Kagome deliberately placed a few grains of salt onto his wound. "Oops." She said in a fake voice. "Wench."
"Am not a wench!"
"You wanna."
"Don't start!" Kagome warned as he sat up and Kagome bounded his wounds. "Now then, am going to go and outside and get a few sticks to start a fire, Shippo will you help me?"
"Sure!" He said cheerfully and bounded outside followed by Kagome and Inu- Yasha grumbled as they left and put on his inner kimono. "I should have killed her when I had the chance."
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Junpei folded his wings behind him as he followed a stream. What was he going to do? Where in the world would he find a miko? The New Moon would be here in a week; he needs a miko and fast. He blinked in confusion, what was that he was sensing? Was it a miko? Yes, YES! It was, thank Kami he was saved! But what was that other smell? A kitsune and a hanyou? How strange he thought as he unfolded his wings and took to the air.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Kagome hummed and picked up sticks and broken logs as Shippo did the same. Kagome wondered where her sister was, she would of made it to the village by now and heard of her kidnapping. Maybe something distracted her? Na, she doubt that, oh well, funny Kagome did not mind staying with the hanyou now. She did not know why but she liked being around him, even if she was hired to kill him. She laughed to herself silently as she realized she was falling for the strange hanyou, never in her life did she dream of this happening to her. But then she was completely thrown out of her thoughts by the high-pitch scream of a kitsune. "Shippo?!"
"Good evening, miko." Said a man with bushy brown hair, he was wearing all black and his dark red eyes just sit off the whole evil aura thing. Then she noticed the wings behind him and Shippo shivering behind her. "What do you want demon? I am no miko." She said as she wonder how he knew about her strange powers she had inherited from her mother. The demon smiled. "You smell of demon, how strange to come across a slayer that is of a miko bloodline. All the better I guess, my master will enjoy you."
"Wha? Okay hold it right there." Kagome said dropping her collected wood and brought forth the same knife she had used when she tried to kill Inu- Yasha once night. She held it out for her defense as the youkai laughed and reached out to grab her, he stopped in the middle of his actions when he picked up the smell of the hanyou. He then looked back at the girl and grabbed her, opened his wings and took to the air and above he treetops only to be smacked down by a powerful force to his head.
Junpei dropped the girl in mid flight; Kagome let out a cry and fell into the treetops as Junpei crashed into the cold hard ground. He then met the blade of a large sword, "What are you doing." A voice growled and Junpei looked up at the source of the voice, it belongs to the hanyou. Junpei smiled "Do not mind me, am just running an errand for my master."
"If so why did you try to take the girl."
"That is my errand, hanyou."
Inu-Yasha growled. "You will not have her."
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Kagome sighed as she struggled with the branches around her; she was in a tree and had multiple cuts on her body. Nothing critical though, but she raised her head by the clashing of a sword on claws. She looked to her right where a whole was in the leafs and saw Inu-Yasha battling the youkai. She watched them, Junpei had came with a right hook to the hanyou who dodged and strikes at the winged youkai who dodged the attack and used his wings to slice at Inu-Yasha's face.
Inu-Yasha took the blow and raised his shoulder cutting deep into Junpei's shoulder. Junpei cringed in pain and jumped into the air and opened his wings, Junpei's claws extended even more then before, he clasped his hands together and then opened them slowly and from his hands blood spilled and a dirk appeared covered in blood. Junpei then raised it above his head and flow down towards Inu-Yasha, then stopped in mid-flight and thrust the dirk straight towards Inu-Yasha nailing him in the shoulder and went through his shoulder and the dirk buried itself within a tree behind Yasha.
How can he fight? He just got out of one and was wounded and now another! Man, he was either heroic or just a plan stupid. She watched as Inu-Yasha's Hijin Ketsusou threw Junpei into a tree and then Inu-Yasha swung his blade aiming for his head, but once again Junpei had moved out of the way of danger. It went on like this for a long time, they both insulted each other and right when Yasha thought he had him he moved out of the way like a freakin' jack-rabbit.
Inu-Yasha was getting annoyed by now and then looked at his fathers sword and sheathed the weapon, he could not use the Kaze no Kizu, and he may hurt Kagome in the process. He placed a hand upon his wounded shoulder and used the Hijin Ketsusou, which cut Junpei's wings off. Junpei fell to the ground with a thud, Yasha smirked and then unsheathed his sword once more and easily removed Junpei's head from his shoulders, not caring why the demon had attacked Kagome.
But right now, he was concerned about her and he sniffed the air locating her easily, he hopped into the tree and stood on the branch below her. Kagome sighed as he looked up and smiled at her. "Come here often and I thought you hated trees."
"Ha, ha very funny.now.GET ME DOWN!"
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Yuueri watched all this from his magic orb by his side and scratched his chin in thought as he looked at the Hanyou and then to the female. "How interesting." He said to no one in particular. He studied the girl for many moments and then he studied the hanyou-inu.
"Seoman."
"Yes, my Lord?" said a small well-rounded toad like demon. "Summon the Lord Of The Western Lands, tell him.tell him I have information that will befitted him."
"Yes, my lord." The toad said as it hopped out of the room.
"In due time, my dear miko.my dear Lady Kagome." He laughed "We will be one." He then chuckled and ran a clawed finger along the jaw line of the image of Kagome.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
ocha: Green tea (if I remember right)
inu-dog
okami- wolf
kami: god
Kaze no Kizu: Cuttin Wind or Scar of the Wind according to Viz, which has the power to kill 100 youkai in a single stroke, to obliterate his opponents. I believe it is a wind attack.

"Hey, hey! Stop that! Ahh! A swear if you try to dig those fangs into me one more time am going to.I said.Hey ow!" Kagome yelled as bit into her arm and in return Kouga received a blow to the back of his head by Kagome's fist. "I am not, I repeat NOT food!" Kagome yelled with a hint of annoyance. Kouga looked at the human girl in front of him and smiled. Kagome noticed the mischievous glare in his eyes and did not like it one bet. "Uh-ho."

"In-u-Ya-sh-a w-wil-l y-ou st-op? I ca-nt ta-ke th-is mu-ch lon-ger!" Shippo whined as Inu-Yasha jumped from treetop to treetop dragging the kitsune by the tail, which caused the kitsune to stutter, or gave him whip lash to make him talk like Caption Kirk from Star Trek. Inu-Yasha getting ever so irritated at the kitsune's whinnying planted the kitsune on to his shoulder. Shippo clang to him as his head started to hurt. "Th-anks."

"Ow! Wench." Inu-Yasha snapped as he lay on his stomach as Kagome mended his wounded back. "Oh stop your whiny, Inu-Yasha." Kagome said in her normal tone of voice as Shippo sat in front of Inu-Yasha and making faces at him. "If you don't stop that, Shippo, am going to rip your tail off." The hanyou threatened and then yipped when Kagome deliberately placed a few grains of salt onto his wound. "Oops." She said in a fake voice. "Wench."
"Am not a wench!"
"You wanna."
"Don't start!" Kagome warned as he sat up and Kagome bounded his wounds. "Now then, am going to go and outside and get a few sticks to start a fire, Shippo will you help me?"
"Sure!" He said cheerfully and bounded outside followed by Kagome and Inu- Yasha grumbled as they left and put on his inner kimono. "I should have killed her when I had the chance."

"Good evening, miko." Said a man with bushy brown hair, he was wearing all black and his dark red eyes just sit off the whole evil aura thing.

She said as she wonder how he knew about her strange powers she had inherited from her mother. The demon smiled. "You smell of demon, how strange to come across a slayer that is of a miko bloodline. All the better I guess, my master will enjoy you."
"Wha? Okay hold it right there." Kagome said dropping her collected wood and brought forth the same knife she had used when she tried to kill Inu- Yasha once night. She held it out for her defense as the youkai laughed and reached out to grab her, he stopped in the middle of his actions when he picked up the smell of the hanyou. He then looked back at the girl and grabbed her, opened his wings and took to the air and above he treetops only to be smacked down by a powerful force to his head.
Junpei dropped the girl in mid flight; Kagome let out a cry and fell into the treetops as Junpei crashed into the cold hard ground. He then met the blade of a large sword, "What are you doing." A voice growled and Junpei looked up at the source of the voice, it belongs to the hanyou. Junpei smiled "Do not mind me, am just running an errand for my master."
"If so why did you try to take the girl."
"That is my errand, hanyou."
Inu-Yasha growled. "You will not have her."

Kagome sighed as she struggled with the branches around her; she was in a tree and had multiple cuts on her body. Nothing critical though, but she raised her head by the clashing of a sword on claws. She looked to her right where a whole was in the leafs and saw Inu-Yasha battling the youkai. She watched them, Junpei had came with a right hook to the hanyou who dodged and strikes at the winged youkai who dodged the attack and used his wings to slice at Inu-Yasha's face.
Inu-Yasha took the blow and raised his shoulder cutting deep into Junpei's shoulder. Junpei cringed in pain and jumped into the air and opened his wings, Junpei's claws extended even more then before, he clasped his hands together and then opened them slowly and from his hands blood spilled and a dirk appeared covered in blood. Junpei then raised it above his head and flow down towards Inu-Yasha, then stopped in mid-flight and thrust the dirk straight towards Inu-Yasha nailing him in the shoulder and went through his shoulder and the dirk buried itself within a tree behind Yasha.
How can he fight? He just got out of one and was wounded and now another! Man, he was either heroic or just a plan stupid. She watched as Inu-Yasha's Hijin Ketsusou threw Junpei into a tree and then Inu-Yasha swung his blade aiming for his head, but once again Junpei had moved out of the way of danger. It went on like this for a long time, they both insulted each other and right when Yasha thought he had him he moved out of the way like a freakin' jack-rabbit.
Inu-Yasha was getting annoyed by now and then looked at his fathers sword and sheathed the weapon, he could not use the Kaze no Kizu, and he may hurt Kagome in the process. He placed a hand upon his wounded shoulder and used the Hijin Ketsusou, which cut Junpei's wings off. Junpei fell to the ground with a thud, Yasha smirked and then unsheathed his sword once more and easily removed Junpei's head from his shoulders, not caring why the demon had attacked Kagome.
But right now, he was concerned about her and he sniffed the air locating her easily, he hopped into the tree and stood on the branch below her. Kagome sighed as he looked up and smiled at her. "Come here often and I thought you hated trees."
"Ha, ha very funny.now.GET ME DOWN!"

Yuueri watched all this from his magic orb by his side and scratched his chin in thought as he looked at the Hanyou and then to the female. "How interesting." He said to no one in particular. He studied the girl for many moments and then he studied the hanyou-inu.
"Seoman."
"Yes, my Lord?" said a small well-rounded toad like demon. "Summon the Lord Of The Western Lands, tell him.tell him I have information that will befitted him."
"Yes, my lord." The toad said as it hopped out of the room.
"In due time, my dear miko.my dear Lady Kagome." He laughed "We will be one." He then chuckled and ran a clawed finger along the jaw line of the image of Kagome.

Kaze no Kizu: Cuttin Wind or Scar of the Wind according to Viz, which has the power to kill 100 youkai in a single stroke, to obliterate his opponents. I believe it is a wind attack.
