Bent Reality
Koga's Still Here
No, yes, maybe…perhaps…I don't know! Inuyasha thought to himself.
The sun was starting to set and Kagome sat on the edge of the cliff with her legs dangling over the side. She stared up at the sky and her hair blew lightly in the breeze. This site caused Inuyasha's breath to stop in his throat.
She is so lovely…He thought.
Why couldn't Sesshomaru stay! Kagome thought. I don't know what to say to Inuyasha. Are we really soul mates? I do love him…but does he love me? Oh, why couldn't Inuyasha just be more open with his feelings! Well it's not like I'm open with mine. Oh shut up! I'm more open than him. I was the one who kissed him.
He didn't kiss back.
What does that mean? That he doesn't love me? That he doesn't want to kiss me? …I hope not.
Inuyasha was having the same battle in his head as Kagome. The only difference was he wasn't sure if he loved her. She was sure she loved him.
"Kagome!" Came a very familiar and very unwanted voice.
"Get away Koga!" Inuyasha nearly pushed Koga off the cliff.
Koga maneuvered away from him and sat beside Kagome. Who looked at him.
"Kagome…My offer is still in the air." Koga took her hand.
"And that is where it will remain." Kagome stood up.
"Huh?" Koga was confused.
"She doesn't want your offer jack ass." Inuyasha said through clenched teeth.
"I think she meant ask later." Koga nodded.
Inuyasha stumbled. "You're an idiot!"
Kagome shook her head and walked away from the two dogs.
"Me? No you're the idiot!" Koga growled.
"Who says?"
"Me?"
"You don't count!"
"Yes I do!"
Kagome was getting a headache. "Hey!" She yelled.
Both Inuyasha and Koga turned to look at her. Surprise written all over both faces.
"Will you both please shu-" Kagome stopped mid sentence and gawked at the large demon that had appeared behind Inuyasha and Koga. It was so tall that its head was higher than the very cliff the three stood on.
"What Kagome?"
"I'm not falling for that one again." Inuyasha said.
Kagome shook her head and pointed.
"No way, ain't fooling me."
Koga turned around. "My god!"
"Oh your in on it too." Inuyasha snorted.
"Inuyasha look!" Kagome yelled.
"Nuh, uh. Not me." Inuyasha shook his head.
"Dog Breath! Just turn your smelly head already!"
"That's it!" Inuyasha turned around to pound Koga but never got to because of the very large demon that seemed to have his eyes focused on him. "Uh, Hello?"

Night was starting to befall the small village where the priestess Kikyo lived. And where the monk and the demon exterminator awaited the arrival of a reincarnation and a half demon. How long would they have to wait? Waiting isn't any fun.
Sango strolled along the edge of the lake. She was walking the perimeter. She had her hands behind her back and she was dragging her feet slightly. Waiting really wasn't any fun.
Perhaps she should have invited Miroku? No.
Sango sighed and closed her eyes for a moment. She felt her foot slip in something wet and next thing she knew she was knee high in mud and water.
"Oh to joy." Sango said. The mud was thick and gooey. And the water being there didn't help any. Sango tried to stand and she was about to pick her hand off the ground when whoosh! And splat, flat on her butt in the mud again. She decided standing wasn't going to get her anywhere so trying to reach dry land would be her best option.
She rolled onto her stomach…this only made the mud spread further across her body, and tried to crawl towards shore. Unfortunately the mud was so slippery she was crawling but not getting anywhere. Sango sighed in defeat and let her whole front side be submerged in the mud. Her chin touched the tip of the muddy water and Sango quickly sat so her chest up was free of the mud and water.
"Need some help." Came a chuckle. Miroku appeared and stood at the edge. He reached out with his hand to her. Sango smiled and took his hand, making sure to grip it tight. She then smiled evilly and pulled as hard as she could.
Miroku fell into the mud face first. Sango laughed and picked up a ball of mud in her hand and chucked at the back of Miroku's head. Contact! Miroku sat up and gave her a nervous smile. He quickly hurled his own mud ball at Sango, nailing her dead in the face. She wiped the mud off as best she could and gave Miroku a friendly glare.
"Oh you want to play?" She asked.
Miroku smirked. "Oh, I want to play."
"Bring it on mud boy!"
The two grown adults played in the mud till long after the moon was in the sky. Enjoying the filthiness, the messiness…and the sheer thrill.

Kagome ran as fast as she could. She stopped when she reached a small clearing and turned around. She saw Inuyasha with Tetsusiaga unsheathed holding on for dear life to the back of the large demon's head. Koga was trying to distract the stupid giant demon so Inuyasha could get a good attacking position. They were working as a team. And they were good at it.
"Hello."
Kagome turned around and took a step back when she saw who had spoken.
"My distraction is working perfectly. Now I will use you as bait."
Kagome shook her head and wished she had her bow and arrows. "Naraku get away from me!"
"Tut, tut, tut. You're no fun." His insects appeared and surrounded her. "Now do please cooperate and perhaps you will not be stung."
Kagome brought her hands up to her chest and tried to look smaller.
"Now come with me dear."
"No! INU-" Kagome felt a sharp pain enter the left side of her head and everything went dark.
"That is enough of that." Naraku held the fainted Kagome in his arms. "Now it is time to put my plan into action."

It was well past nine o' clock when Rin walked back into the hospital room. Exactly five minutes after her, Sesshomaru walked in. Inuyasha wanted to laugh at their terrible attempt to look inconspicuous. Not to long after they arrived the three girls left reluctantly. Sesshomaru decided that he and Rin should return home and they would come back to the hospital tomorrow. Sesshomaru didn't think Kagome was going to wake anytime in the night. This left only Inuyasha and Ms. Higurashi in the room.
"Why don't you go home Inuyasha." Ms. Higurashi laid her book on her lap.
"I am fine Miss, but what about you, you have been here longer than me."
Ms. Higurashi shook her head. "I am the only one who can stay here, Sota has school and my Father must worry about the shrine."
Inuyasha nodded and sat on the floor with his back leaning against Kagome's bed.
"Inuyasha I have a question."
"Hmm?"
"Kagome was telling me about her dreams, and well she mentioned another boy who kept asking her to be his woman, and-"
Inuyasha made a strangled noise.
"and I was just wondering who she could be talking about."
Inuyasha shrugged.
"Oh come now Inuyasha! I know you know who it is!"
"Nope no idea." Inuyasha was not a good liar.
"Tell me please! I know it wasn't you!"
Inuyasha crossed his arms. "He was a terrible nuisance! Always popping up at the worst possible moment. He was so cocky!"
"My, my it sounds as though you were jealous of him!" Ms. Higurashi laughed.
"I am not!"
Ms. Higurashi stopped her laughing and looked at Inuyasha good. "Don't you mean, you were not?"
"Uh…Shit." Inuyasha buried his head in his hands.
"So he was a demon!"
"Yes…"came Inuyasha's muffled voice.
"What is his name?"
"I don't want to say it."
"Oh come on you can tell me."
"It's not a matter of telling you, it's a matter of what happens after I say it."
"Huh?" Ms. Higurashi scratched her head.
"I don't know, but whenever I say his name, he magically appears. Not in front of me. But he'll walk through that door, or call on the phone. Or a nurse will pop in and say I have a visitor. I am not sure if it is coincidence or he put some kind of spell on his name." Inuyasha finished and stood up. "So no, you will not get to know his name."
Ms. Higurashi sat there thinking, trying to remember…"Ah ha!"
"What…"
"Koga!"
"Shit." Inuyasha slumped back to the ground. "Ten seconds…how much you want to bet."
"I don't understand."
Inuyasha shook his head annoyed. "One. Two. Three."
"Inuyasha?"
"Five, Six."
"What is going on?!"
"Nine," Inuyasha took in a deep breath, hoping Koga wouldn't come. "Te-"
There was a large rustle from the other side of the door and someone saying excuse me to who ever they had run into. Then the door swung open and Inuyasha muttered every curse word under the sun.
"Hello dog breath."
************************************
Ah ha! Someone thought that Koga only had a small part in this story. But I have been planning that last scene ever since someone mentioned I had forgotten Koga. Now there is something very important that I need to discuss.
Incase you are confused e mail me with specific questions you have and I will try and answer them. Here is the answer to a question that one of my friends asked. Perhaps it will clear a few things up.
-When Kagome is in her time, the future, and she sleeps, she travels to the past. But when she is in the past and she sleeps, she dreams normally.
I hope that helped a little. Please review and keep reading!
