The Boy Who Overcame Time
Chapter 6
It had been hours since Hojo had forced into his car. She only half listened to his ranting. Over and over she heard Inu Yasha "Now all I want is to be what you want and need me to be." then the crack of a gunshot and his falling forward, his black hair.... THAT was it, his black hair, she looked out the window of the car and saw for the first time that there was no moon. Inu Yasha was at his weakest. Fresh tears rolled down her face.
"Stop crying. You are mine, and always will be. I did some investigation on this Miroku Yasha. Yea he has money, did you know that he and his brother own half of Tokyo? No one knows where they came from, they've just always been there."
A warmth filled her hand. The Shikon No Tama. She hadn't dropped it. The warmth filled her she felt the strength of who she was, the girl who had defeated Naroku, who had stared down Sesshomaru, and the girl who when this was through would be Inu Yasha's wife. She sat straighter in the car seat and looked towards the east the sun was beginning to rise. If he had lived through the night she knew Inu Yasha would be on his way to rescue her. She looked at the boy, now she understood why Inu Yasha had always called him boy, who had shot him and kidnapped her. When she spoke her voice was full of hatred and venom. "I am not nor was I ever or will I EVER be yours. You do not own me. NO ONE makes decisions for me. And I refuse to be frightened by a little boy, even if he does have a pistol." Kagome wiped away the last of her tears. She was finished. Finished being scared. Finished being a victim. From his seat beside her, Hojo's arm swung slapping her in the face. "So now you show your true colors. You can't control so you hit? Feh." She calmly rolled down the window and spat blood. "Oh dear you caused me to bleed, do you know what Inu Yasha will do to you now?"
"WHO THE HELL IS INU YASHA??"
"Oh I apologize. You know him as Miroku Yasha." She smiled even as she winced from the pain in her lip where her teeth had cut her lip from his slap. "Since you investigated him, would you like to know the truth about him? Inu Yasha's mother was a beautiful princess of the Imperial Court of Japan, his father the demon lord of the Western lands. He is there only child. He does have an older brother, Sesshomaru who is full demon. I met him when I fell through the hidden well at my families shrine. Oh he hated me at first, because I looked so like his first love. But slowly over the years he softened. We had a mission to complete. Did you honestly believe my grandfather's stories? Do I look sickly?" she chuckled. "When the mission was completed, he left - not for the reason I thought - but I came home. He wasn't able to follow so he had to wait. Wait for me to be born, wait for me to grow up, wait for me to finish what for him was already finished." She turned her head to look at Hojo and sneered, "He has waited a thousand years for my answer and you shot him."
Even through his jealous rage, Hojo became worried that Kagome was unbalanced. Yet she continued. "You shot him, and on the one night it could actually hurt him. And you think I would ever consider being yours? I am the Protector of the Shikon No Tama, I am the mate of Lord Inu Yasha and you will release me now." As she touched the dashboard of his Toyota a spark leaped from her fingers, the cars engine sputtered and died. When the car stopped she calmly stepped out and started walking back the way they had come, she knew he was coming she felt his presence on the morning air.
