Getting Through With Love Chap 12: Transformation
The sudden sound of footsteps rumbled throughout the village. Inuyasha opened his eyes and stood up, placing his hand on Tetsusaiga's hilt.
"What's going on?" Kika asked as she too roused from her slumber.
"Use your nose." Inuyasha whispered harshly.
Kika glared and sniffed the air. Her eyes widened and she quickly awoke Kagome and Shippo. Inuyasha stepped out of the hut and peered into the darkness, trying to find what was coming. Suddenly there was a bright flash and one of the huts in the village went up in flames. A family ran out of the house and huddled in a neighbor's hut. Inuyasha growled and unsheathed Tetsusaiga making it transform into the great fang. The demon stepped closer, into the light that the fire had created. It smirked down at Inuyasha and swiped at him. Inuyasha dodged and charged at the enormous demon, bringing Tetsusaiga down on its shoulder. He landed on the ground and looked up to see the demon still standing, with not even a scratch on it where Tetsusaiga had hit. Inuyasha gazed confused at how the demon could be perfectly unharmed.
"Inuyasha, watch out!" Kagome yelled from the hut.
Inuyasha snapped from his thoughts, but had no time to move. The demon swatted him with its tail sending him straight into a tree. Inuyasha got up using Tetsusaiga. He looked and saw the demon going for more of the huts. He growled and jumped, striking the demon with his sword.
"You're fight is with me you asshole." He yelled.
The demon growled and turned on Inuyasha. It walked towards him and Inuyasha turned running, leading it away from the village.
"What's he doing?" Shippo asked, slightly confused.
"He's leading it away from the village." Kika told him. "Hey Kagome should we.. Kagome?" She looked around and saw her friend already off and running after Inuyasha and the demon.
"Come on you guys, he might need our help!" Kagome yelled over her shoulder as she kept running. Kika grabbed Shippo and sped off after her, quickly catching up. They saw the demon and then saw a red object flying towards the ground. They got to the battleground to see the demon with some cuts and scratches, and Inuyasha lying in a small crater.
Inuyasha got up and growled, raising Tetsusaiga. He jumped at the demon only to meet its fist. He lost his grip on Tetsusaiga and it went flying off into the forest around them. Inuyasha hit the ground hard. He was bruised and was now bleeding from cuts and gashes he had received from the blows that he was getting.
"Heh heh heh, is that all you've got half breed?" The demon smirked and he stepped on Inuyasha. Inuyasha screamed as the demon slowly pressed down with his foot, adding more and more pressure.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried as she began to run towards him, but she stopped when she saw Kika jump ahead and slash at the demon with her claws.
"Get off our friend you dirt bag!" she yelled as she continuously clawed at his back. The demon moved off of Inuyasha and shook, sending Kika flying into a nearby tree. The demon sniffed and turned, seeing Kagome and Shippo. It licked its lips and slowly advanced towards them. Just before it reached them, an animalistic growl filled the air and the demon suddenly fell to the ground. Kagome looked down at the dead demon and then back up only to meet a pair of blood red eyes. She gasped and stepped backwards. Inuyasha smirked, his now longer fangs glinting as the sun began to rise.
Kika got up and saw the dead demon, Inuyasha, and then the look of terror on Kagome's face. She blinked and ran over to Kagome.
"What's going on?" She asked and followed Kagome's gaze. She looked confused as she noticed Inuyasha's appearance.
"H-He transformed..." Kagome whispered out, sounding scared. Suddenly Inuyasha stood straight and sniffed the air. He turned and ran away from them. Kagome blinked as well as Shippo.
"Where's he going?" Shippo asked Kagome. She just shook her head still staring dumbly after him. He then turned to Kika and realized she was growling.
"I smell human blood, and other humans in that direction. He's headed for a village." She told them. "Would you mind explaining what's going on?"
"Inuyasha's demon blood has taken control of him. He's now a mindless killer and unless we find Tetsusaiga, he'll stay in his demon form." Kagome told her. Then she ran off, in search of Inuyasha's sword.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha growled and sliced through another villager. People ran and screamed in fear. Inuyasha smirked and licked some of the blood from his hands. He then jumped into the air and brought his claws down on another villager killing it instantly. He stood up from a crouched position and looked around. A group of men from the village he was in had gathered and surrounded him. He smirked and cracked his claws. In seconds all the men were down on the ground in a pool of fresh blood. Inuyasha looked at his bloodstained claws and then began shredding the dead bodies even more.
"Inuyasha, stop it!" a voice yelled.
He looked up and saw a girl, a fox child, and a hanyou running towards him. He crouched down and growled threateningly at them. They stopped, just a few feet away from him. Kagome stepped forward with Tetsusaiga in her hands. She held it out to him and looked into his eyes.
"Inuyasha, please take Tetsusaiga and come back." She whispered.
Inuyasha growled and stepped back a step. The without warning he lunged at her, claws outstretched. Kagome shut her eyes and waited for his claws to dig into her.
"Hiraikotsu!"
Kagome opened her eyes and saw Inuyasha on the ground growling and slowly getting up. Sango and Miroku ran towards them with Kirara right behind them.
"What are you waiting for Lady Kagome? Give him Tetsusaiga!" Miroku yelled.
Kagome nodded and ran over to Inuyasha. She grabbed one of his hands and pulled it to Tetsusaiga. Inuyasha growled and brought his other hand up to claw her, but his hand stopped inches from her chest, and his other hand held Tetsusaiga. The lines on his face disappeared and he closed his eyes, falling backwards, unconscious. Kagome sighed and slumped to her knees on the ground.
"Kagome!" Shippo yelled as he and the others ran over to her. He jumped and hugged her tightly.
"Are you alright Kagome?" Sango asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. We should get back to the village."
"You four go, I will stay and help the villagers with burying their dead and say prayers for them." Miroku told them and then walked over to the last of the villagers.
"Kirara, carry Inuyasha." Sango told her small cat. Kirara mewed and transformed into her larger form. Sango and Kika lifted Inuyasha onto her back and Kagome climbed on behind him. "It seems that a lot has happened while Miroku and I were away. You'll have to tell us about it later at the hut."
"We will." Kika said. "Oh and my name is Kika, it's nice to meet you."
"I'm Sango, it's nice to meet you too Kika."
With that said, they small group walked the rest of the way to the village in silence.
Later that night, Kika had explained what happened to Miroku and Sango outside the hut, while Kagome stayed in the hut watching over a still unconscious Inuyasha. She stared off into the small fire, when she heard movement next to her. She looked to see Inuyasha shift on the futon they had put him on and then open his eyes. He sat up groggily and rubbed his eyes.
"What happened?" He mumbled.
"You transformed and attacked a village..." Kagome whispered out. Inuyasha growled quietly. He looked at his claws that we now clean, but he could still smell the blood that had been on them. He continued staring until he felt arms wrap around him. He looked at Kagome confused as she hugged him.
"It's alright, you weren't yourself when you attacked them." She whispered.
"But I-" He began, but she cut him off by placing a finger to his lips.
"Shh, you should get some more rest."
Inuyasha nodded slowly and laid back down on the futon. He stared at the ceiling, letting his mind wander. He was taken out of them again when he felt something warms cover him and then felt someone beside him. He turned his head to see Kagome laying beside him, a blanket covering the two of them. She smiled and closed her eyes. Inuyasha blinked, then a small smile graced his lips. He turned onto his side and wrapped his arms around her, holding him to her. He then closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The others slowly got up and stretched. The explanation had been long, and it had been dark outside for awhile. They quietly crept into the hut and back to Kika's room. Shippo and Kika went straight to the room, followed by Sango, until she realized that Miroku wasn't following. She turned around and saw him staring at Kagome and Inuyasha with a confused look on his face. He then smiled and turned to her. He walked up and passed her walking into the room. Sango sighed and smiled at her two friends sleeping on the floor. She then turned and walked into the back room. She laid down and smiled to herself.
