Where the Fire Burns



Chapter 2: Old memories, New feelings...

(Inu-yasha's POV...again)



Here I go...down to Earth in the middle of the night to fight a vampire from WAY down under.

I use one of my invisbility fields to make me see-through. I silently land on the ground near an abondoned

building to begin my search. I sniff the air for any possible vampire scents. Luckily, Heaven Academy

teaches that kind of stuff up there.

Suddenly a scent that smelled like an angel fluttered through the air, but soon became an ashy,

dusty smell. And ashy, dusty smells belong only to vampires.... I smirked, finally being able to kick a$$

and not get in trouble for it.

I follow the smell to the builing that I landed next to. Shaking my head at the place, I fold my

wings against my back and tiptoe inside. I wasn't scared but I've heard that surprise is an easy way to

win. I turn the corner and slip. So basically my foot was stuck in a hole and I couldn't move it.

"Are ya stuck?"

The voice that just passed my ears was a deep voice, but not like a normal vampire's. I lifted my

head up to to see two tinted green eyes stare back at me. I look furthur up and I see a mess of tangled

black hair that reached to her middle. Two black ears, somewhat like mine, were on her head with long

sidelocks leading from them. Her outfit was a black tanktop with black baggy pants. A normal vampire

would have claws, I mean humogous claws for feet, but hers were just like mine. Just human-like feet with

claws. Her hands were similar. And on her back were the wings that I remember. Bright green of an

apple tree but has the structure of a vampire wing. And a long black tail streaming from right above her

butt. Yep, Crese was right. She was sent here.

"Yea, but I'll get out."

"Okay." And with that she turned to sit on a huge rock next to me. I finally got unstuck, but

it wasn't exactly a good thing. Why?? Because I tripped with my other foot and ran smack into Patricia.

In a kiss....

We stayed like that for a minute. I know I didn't move because I was scared of what might

happen. She pulled away and helped me to my feet. Then she smacked me, forcing me back onto my

butt. Ouch, that hurt....I mean, Sess hits pretty hard when me and him fight, but damn, she hits harder

than he does...I didn't think that was possible.

"What the fuck?" She growled at me.

"Look, I accidently fell...I didn't mean to ....you know.."

"Yea, yea.."

"I'm serious.."

She looked at me, then said, "Hey, Inu, we're old friends, right?"

"Yea, why?"

"Well, Father wants me to marry some cheap-ass and I don't want to."

I smiled to reassure her. "Crese told me and my parents about that."

"So he's okay?"

"Yea, he's fine and under the best medical staff we have up there." I said as I pointed upward.

"Good," she paused, "do you think you can marry me?"

"Okay, ...wait...WHAT?? Hell No!!"

"Hear me out first...I have good reasons.."

She'd better. I'm not marrying any girl for at least 5 years...that is if I can escape the clutches of

my dad. But it is nice to talk to my old friend again. Up in heaven there is a human-angel that my dad

wants me to get hooked up with. Her name's Kagome. She's nice and all but too nice for me. I need a

dare-devil type girl in my life, who isn't too afraid of me. Kagome shrinks to a meter high when I'm the

same room as her. And this other girl...Kikyo. A slave angel. She's a mean sucker and rude too. I

don't really have to explain more....But this one girl, Sango, she's a tough girl, I mean really tough. I don't

like her though because she's more fun to make fun of, then date and like...Besides, she's Miroku's girl.

And I respect my cousin, even if he's a little lost in the head.

Patricia swallowed and said, "Well, the guy that Father wants me to marry is a combination of

vampires. His name's Naraku and he's abusive. He's already hit me 7 times."

"Didya kick him back?"

"I couldn't, because Dad always came into the room right afterward."

"Does Krise-san have a problem with abuse?"

"Oh yea, that's how my mother died..." She sniffed.

Dammit Crese, forget a little detail, jeez... I said, "Hey, instead to rushing to marriange to save

your ass, how about we talk to my dad. He could help..."

"Well, maybe.."

"Come on...I don't want anything happening to you. You're the only vampire friend that I have."

She smiled as I grabbed her hand. We both flew back to Heaven and to my house, where Dad,

Crese, Mother, and Sess would be waiting for us. The kiss had been totally forgotten by Patricia, but

not by me. The spark that passed up and down my spine was still there and my stomach still had

butterflies inside. I was a very happy human/dog angel....and I sure hope Patricia was a happy

vampire/angel.
