Thanks to everyone who is reading my story. Please review to let me know how I'm doing.

Thank you Sesshomaru for being the first reviewer and I will keep writing.

Getting Through with Love: Chapter 3: Inuyasha's Bite

"There. Kagome go get Kaede and I'll put Kika on a futon."

"Alright, be careful with her Inuyasha, or you'll get the 's' word a million times."

"I will! Now go." Kagome ran to get Kaede as Inuyasha and Shippo put Kika on a futon.

"Inuyasha, I think she's got a fever." Shippo said touching Kika's forehead.

"Then go down to the river and fill a bowl with water. I'll wait here for Kaede and Kagome."

"Ok, but are you feeling alright Inuyasha? You look really sweaty."

"I'm fine you little whelp! Go get the water!" With that Shippo rushed off with a bowl to the river.

"Inuyasha says he's fine, but I have a bad feeling about this," Shippo thought.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Inuyasha I brought Kaede."

"Alright. Shippo went to get some water cause he said that she has a fever."

"'Twas it your brother that did this, Inuyasha?" Kaede asked.

"Keh. He's not my brother." Inuyasha said. Then he felt a sharp pain inside of him. "Am I still feeling the effect of the poison that was on that katana? But how? Did Sesshomaru use a poison for demons?" Inuyasha asked himself.

"I'm back with the water!"

"Give it to.."

"Inuyasha?" Shippo asked looking at Inuyasha.

"Give it to Kagome."

"Ok.."

"Thanks Shippo, Kika needs all the help that she can get right now." Kagome said taking the bowl of water from the kitsune's hands.

"Kagome.. I don't think that she's the only one that -"

"What Inuyasha?" Kagome asked as she turned around to see him falling. She jumped up and caught him before he hit the ground.

"Inuyasha, what's wrong?"

"There was poison on a katana that Sesshomaru ran through me. It was meant to harm demons." Inuyasha said before he passed out.

"Inuyasha, wake up. Come on don't, we need your help." Kagome shouted shaking his shoulders.

"Kagome, what happened?"

"Shippo get another futon and help me get him on it." Shippo ran into another room and soon he came running back with a bedroll behind him. Then he rolled it out and Kagome dragged Inuyasha onto it.

"Kaede could you get another wet cloth for him? He's burning up more than Kika." Kagome asked placing her hand on his forehead and quickly moving it away.

"Yes child."

"Please be alright Inuyasha." Kagome whispered.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Inuyasha was shivering and sweat was coating his body. Shippo had removed his haori and white shirt. Also he had rolled up his pant legs. Inuyasha was lying on the futon with a light blanket covering to prevent him from getting the chills. His face was pale and he looked as though he might leave them soon.

"Inuyasha." Kagome whispered. "Don't give up, I can't lose any friends."

"Kagome."

"You're awake? Don't talk, you need your rest." Kagome told him sternly.

"Thank you." He whispered and then he lost consciousness again.

"Did he just thank me? He must be sicker than I thought." Kagome thought. Then she brushed away some hair from his face and she dipped the cloth into the water and placed it back on his head.

"Kagome?"

"Yes Shippo?"

"He will get better right? And Kika too?" he asked concerned about his old friend as well as his new one.

"I hope so Shippo."

"They'll pull through, I mean they both took on Sesshomaru."

"You know what Shippo, you're right" Kagome said patting him on the head. "You're right."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Wha-Where am I?" Inuyasha said as he opened his eyes. He looked around and remembered that he was in Kaede's hut and he had passed out. Inuyasha sat up, but when he tried to get off of the futon he found that he was still a little too weak.

"Dammit." Inuyasha cursed as he decided to lay back down.

"M'lord?"

"Myoga. How long have I been out?"

"Two days sir."

"What?!"

"Yes, and tonight is when there is no moon."

"Oh shit. I'll even worse with my body in this weak condition."

"That is why you must rest more."

"Feh."

"Inuyasha, you're awake." Kagome said as she walked into the hut from gathering some herbs. "How are you feeling? Can I get you anything? Are you hungry?"

"Shut up wench, you're giving me a headache."

"Well sorry for asking how you are. I mean you've only been unconscious for two days. Oh but how could I forget you're a demon, you should be back to normal."

"Shows what you know. Do you think that I would still be lying here if I were back to my full strength? I can't even get up!"

"Oh. Sorry."

"Feh, whatever." He grunted. "How is everyone else?"

"Well we're all fine with the exception of you and Kika. She's still unconscious."

"I know of some herbs that might help her. They're in the forest and you should take Shippo. They give off a certain scent and he should know what it is."

"We can't leave you here alone. What if something attacks?"

"I'll be fine."

"But -"

"Kagome the quicker you leave the quicker you get back, ok."

"Fine. Come on Shippo." Inuyasha watched his two friends leave and then he sat up.

"M'lord you must lay back down."

"Feh, I already told you I don't need to rest." He said getting on his hands and knees. Then he crawled over to where Kika was and he sat down.

"M'lord what are you doing?"

"I'm going to help Kagome's friend. Why else would I be over here?"

"What are you planning to do?"

"Do you remember my friend that got poisoned by my father that miraculously recovered but had turned into a hanyou?"

"Yes. I always wondered how he had become a half breed."

"Well, I did it."

"How?"

"My bite. When I bite someone on the verge of dying, they can recover from their illness. I bite once and then again when the area turns blue. If I bite too soon, too late, or not at all then the person turns into a hanyou. This girl's lucky cause I can only use it once every one hundred years or so."

"But how did you gain such a power?"

"I inherited it from my mother. She could heal people so I got it from her."

"And now you're going to use it to save lady Kika?"

"Are you really that dense? Why would I explain all this and be sitting here if I weren't going to?" Inuyasha asked very annoyed.

"Sorry M'lord. What about the herb?"

"It exists, just not around here. I can't have any distractions or Kagome and Shippo yelling and annoying me."

"Well you should hurry, the sun shall set soon."

"I know that!" Inuyasha yelled then he blocked the door and walked back over to Kika, the strength finally returning to his legs. Then he sat down and dug his fangs into her arm. Kika let out an ear-piercing scream and Inuyasha flattened his ears to drown it out.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~ In the forest ~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Kagome that sounded like Kika screaming."

"Let's go Shippo, they could be in danger."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Everything back at the hut was going accordingly. There were no interruptions or distractions, so Inuyasha was able to keep a close eye on the bite. It was purple and would soon be blue. Then Kagome and Shippo came running in just as Inuyasha was about to bite Kika's arm again.

"SIT!"

"Ahhh!" Inuyasha cried as he fell flat to the ground. As soon as the spell let him, he got up and looked at the bitten area. It was back to normal skin color.

"Good one bitch, you just killed the way that your friend used to be!"

"What are you talking about? You were going to bite her!" Kagome screamed at him.

"Please lady Kagome listen to me for a moment." Myoga said. He explained what Inuyasha was doing and about where his ability came from.

"And now she will become a half demon, just like M'lord." Myoga finished.

Kagome grew pale. Her friend was what?

"I'm sorry Kagome."

"Well you should have told me what you were planning to do. Then I would have gladly left and made sure no one distracted you." Kagome yelled.

"No you wouldn't have! You would have yelled and screamed at me for even thinking something like that! You would have 'sat' me till my back broke!"

"No I wouldn't have!"

"Feh. I'm leaving." Inuyasha said as he ran out the door, leaping off towards the forest.

"But M'lord!" Myoga called trying to stop him, but Inuyasha was already gone. "This is not good."

"What's wrong Myoga? He'll be back." Shippo said.

"That would be true. However tonight is when there is no moon. M'lord will be human, and in his weakened state, he'll be easy prey for a hungry demon."

A cliffhanger, well maybe, maybe not. You decide. Anyway this is the end of the third chapter so I hope that you liked it. As always please review so that I know how I'm doing.
