A Secret Love

Author's Note: Anyway, I did this to have some fun. I was thinking, what if Kikyo didn't exists in their lives (don't we all wish that?) and Kagome lived in Inuyasha's time? Well this is what this fic is about. And starting now their journey begins.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or the characters, just this fic. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~* Chapter 19

Inuyasha sat up in a tree watching as the stars began to show more clearly in the night sky. He brought his hand in front of his face and began to flex his claws lazily. He had heard the villagers where Kagome's village making a lot of noise and since there was torches involved, that meant some kind of festivities, which he didn't want to join. He had left the trees right outside her village and went a little deeper into the forest. He sighed and looked at the full moon. "Once the new moon comes and goes we can go back on the hunt." he muttered. "If I was a full demon I wouldn't have to try and find a way to protect Kagome every new moon until my transformation is over."

"Inuyasha!" he blinked and turned his head to see Kagome looking at him with an arrow pointed at him. He stood up on the bench and crossed his arms, raising an eyebrow at his childhood friend.

"What do you think you're doing Kagome?" he asked. She narrowed her eyes at him.

"Don't start with me Inuyasha!" she yelled and let the arrow go. Inuyasha quickly moved, but the arrow grazed his cheek.

"What the-" he turned and glared at the girl, but she already had out another arrow and was aiming at him. He quickly jumped out the way, but Kagome seemed very determined to hit him. He was beginning to wonder what he did to piss her off this bad that she wanted him dead. He didn't much of a chance to ask since he had just barely missed getting shot in the chest. 'What is wrong with her?" he thought and looked over his shoulder. Just as he did this, an arrow flew at him and him directly in the shoulder, causing him to loose his balance and fall from the trees and onto the ground.

"Wow Inuyasha, for someone who just betrayed me completely, you aren't shoeing any real hope on living to deceive any more innocent girls." Inuyasha pulled the arrow out and growled at her.

"What the hell are you on about?" he asked and stood up weakly. Kagome looked at him sadly, but quickly lifted her bow, ready to shoot another arrow.

"Don't play stupid, Inuyasha! You tried to kill my little brother, and that's something I can never forgive you for!" she snapped at him and the arrow go. Inuyasha quickly jumped out the way, but the arrow kept coming, cutting into him as they passed him. He knew Kagome could immediately kill him if she wanted, so why wouldn't she just get it over with? He stumbled a few steps and fell against a tree. He had lost energy and blood trying to get away from this girl. He opened his eyes and looked to see Kagome standing ten feet away from him with the bow pointed at him.

"So, ya gonna kill me now?" he asked, closing his eyes. He then opened them again, having smelt fear and anger from the girl. Her hands were shaking and their were tears rolling down her cheeks as she stood there with the weapon pointed at him. She shot the arrow at him and then fell to her knees, with more tears then before leaking down her face.

"Inuyasha!"
