Chapter 3
Inu Yasha grabbed Kagome jumping back.
"Halt!" one of the men shouted. Kagome could feel Inu Yasha's heart beat. It was faster than a poor little birds, who's went well over 300 times a minute. Inu Yasha glared at the men as he slowly slid his feet back. Kagome felt a rumble against her back. She looked up and gasped at Inu Yasha. She felt petrified at the look in his face.
"Set. The girl. Down." This was only a reason for him to growl louder. He let out a low snarl baring his fangs as he backed up more. The sound of gunshots filled the room. Inuyasha ducked dodging a few. He rolled to the side followed by a leap into the air. He flexed his hand for attack. He heard Kagome scream. As he jumped past the officials he swiftly swiped his hand across them. As he dashed into the hall the front of the guns slid off. The officials glanced at each other for a moment before grabbing the communicator.
"We've found the killer! He's taken a young girl hostage! Just leaving the orphanage! Heading...west!"
"Backup is on the way.
Kagome felt petrified. She could still feel the fast heartbeat in his chest as well as the low growl. They were traveling by rooftops toward a very official looking building. Kagome looked down and shrieked seeing no ground beneath them. A split second later they were behind a dumpster. Inu Yasha clamped a hand down over her mouth as she squeaked. He pulled her closely to his chest.
"Did they go this way?"
"Hold on let me take a look."
Kagome felt Inu Yasha shift as he slid closer to the side. His eyes were keenly on lock of their shadows.
What's going on? He seems so innocent, so gentle, so... nice but scared. But now, he's nervous. His eyes-they aren't gentle and kind.
"There they are!"
Inu Yasha jumped to the side grabbing a rusted piece of metal. He stood and set it close to Kagome's neck. The men froze.
"O-one step closer, a-and she's dead!"
Kagome looked up at him. His eyes weren't angry, they weren't scared.
He was terrified. His hand was trembling. His breathe was deep and ragged. His heart must've been going faster than a humming bird's.
A car screeched up knocking the men out of the way unconscious. The door opened and Ayame stepped out. "Kagome! Get in! Quick!"
Kagome felt Inu Yasha drop the scrap of metal as they dashed for the car. Ayame barely got the door closed as Kouga sped off leaving a few black streaks behind.
"Hang on!" he yelled stepping on the gas. Kagome felt herself sinking back into the cushions of the car. Inu Yasha was well long past out by now. Ayame had her feet scrunched up in her socks with her hairs on end.
"Kouga! Slow down, for God's sake! They'll definitely know it's us if they see you going past 150!!!"
Ayame felt the car slow steadily. The next minute Kouga had a lump on his head.
"You IDIOT!" Ayame shrieked sitting back down. Kouga mumbled something about 'ungrateful women'. Kagome caught Inu Yasha as he fell forward. "I think he passed out. Ne, I thought you two snitched on us or something. Those guys showed up right after you left."
Ayame gaped. "I can't believe you'd think that for a minute! But I did notice this guy hanging around the hall when I came out. He looked like a detective."
"I saw one on T.V. yesterday. It was like...Houdi something," Kouga stated looking proud of himself. Kagome rolled her eyes.
"Houshi Miroku, he's a low level detective but does excellent work...when he's not groping women."
"Groping?" Ayame looked at her with a confused look. Kagome nodded her head. "Hai, if you notice where his hands are on the news. Good grief, that guy has no decency. I mean, he's sexually harassing women on television! That's like...like...making your own death sentence!" Ayame burst into laughter.
After few hours passed. Inu Yasha felt them hit a bump on the rode as they continued. He could smell Kagome's scent near him. He felt her hand brush across his forehead smoothing his bangs. His eye twitched as he opened it. At first everything was a bright blur but quickly faded back to normal. Kagome smiled at him.
"Glad to see you're up."
Inu Yasha sighed and looked down. "I'm...sorry." Kagome cocked her head. "For what?" Inu Yasha looked at her like she was mad.
"For what?! I threatened your life back there! How can you forget about that?"
Kagome grunted and grabbed a peculiar lock of his hair that always stayed in front of him. She pulled his head forward almost hitting hers in the process.
"Look, I forgave you on that. I could see the terror your eyes held. I'm guessing you're not that scared of getting caught, or being chased. You're scared of yourself, am I right?" Kagome watched as that fear in his eyes slowly returned. Hurt. He averted his gaze.
"Yes," he whispered out, "I'm afraid of what I can do. I'm not even sure how it happens. One minute I'm fine, an insult-I wake up with blood all over me."
Kagome set a hand on her shoulder. Ayame glanced at her friend.
"It's hard for you, I understand," Kagome whispered setting her head against his back. "I'll be here for you, the whole time. You don't need to be afraid around me. I understand completely. Just...just trust me."
Inu Yasha sighed and moved her so he could set his head into her shoulder. "Ari...gato."
Kagome nodded leaning her head against his.
Ayame unbuckled her seatbelt moving to the front seat next to Kouga.
"You okay?" Kouga asked glancing at Ayame. "Keep your eyes on the road, moron," Ayame said. Kouga did so but occasionally glanced at her. As they reached the red light famous for staying that way for what seemed forever he turned to her.
"Ayame, what's wrong?"
Ayame glanced at him and bit her lip trying to contain tears. "I'm...scared."
Kouga took one hand off the wheel setting it on Ayame's where it rested. He gripped it lightly rubbing his thumb over her knuckles. "Don't worry. I'll be here to protect you if he loses control. But, with Kagome around," he turned around to show Kagome his smirk, "I think we'll be fine."
Kagome blushed and grunted making a pouting face as she kicked Kouga's seat. He jolted forward and sank his face into his crossed arms on the steering wheel to contain his laughter.
Ayame made a small scream when a horn beeps. Kouga quickly lifted his head and continued on the road. He continued to glance at Ayame. She noticed this easily.
"Kouga, I told you, I'm fine!" she said with a smile. Kouga turned his head to her and frowned. "Are you sure?" Ayame nodded as she reached a hand toward him. He smirked as she forced his face view on the road again. Kouga glanced at his side mirror and spotted police scanning the area.
"Kagome, get down!" he whispered in a rush. Kagome and Inu Yasha ducked getting as close to the floor as possible. Ayame pushed on the radio and began to act like she'd been singing and bobbing around like an idiot for hours. Kouga rested one arm on his rest making himself looked relaxed. He occasionally bobbed his head to the song. As the police passed he smiled and waved at them. They waved back and passed.
"Stay down," Kouga said through gritted teeth as he and Ayame kept the act up.
"Wait, wait-we're almost out of view."
Kagome grunted as an ache began to form in her back. Kouga hissed at her to be quiet as they passed more officers. When they were finally out Kouga sighed letting his head fall back as far as it could go.
"Gods that was nerve-racking!" he shouted angrily. Ayame set a hand over her heart feeling its fast beat in an attempt to calm it. As another officer walked toward them signaling them to stop she froze. She shuddered.
"Ayame, are you okay? You're pale-I mean, like white pale."
Ayame's eyes widened as she turned to Kouga. Her breathe was short and raspy. "Kouga?"
He grabbed her hand tightly.
"Y-you that feeling when-when you're scared. When your so scared you want to through up-and-and you feel like you're burning up? When your stomach's tight in a knot and you can barely breathe?"
Kouga watched as tears streamed down her face. He pushed Kagome back down as she started to get up. Kagome hid back under the seat as the officer tapped on the door. Kouga opened the window without taking his eyes off Ayame.
Shoot, now I have to act...
"Sir, we would like to-" he glanced at Ayame. "Is everything all right?"
Kouga got an idea and looked back to the officer. A smirk formed on his face.
"Confession breakdown."
Ayame caught the idea and went into her own act. She grabbed Kouga's arm and leaned forward setting her head in his shoulder. "I'm so sorry! I should have told you! I-I'm sorry!" she pleaded with tears streaming down her face. Kouga fought the urge to laugh as the officer patted her shoulder telling her to stay well and walk away.
Kouga rolled the window up and started off out of the city. Ayame still clung to his arm like a lech. He could feel the heat radiating off her from being afraid so badly. He heard a whine and looked at her.
"My stomach hurts," she informed clutching it.
"Hunger? Or you still scared?"
Ayame sniffled as her stomach let out a small growl. "Both." Kouga smirked.
"Oi! Can we PLEASE come out now?!" Kagome yelled angrily.
"Oh! Yeah, sorry guys," he apologized. Kagome glared at him rubbing her back.
"You owe me a massage," she grumbled under her breathe angrily sitting back down. Inu Yasha pulled himself out sitting next to her. Kouga smirked. Ayame glared. Kouga gulped. Ayame smiled.
More time passed and it soon became nightfall. Luckily, Kouga had camping supplies in his trunk. They set camp up in some woods they came across. Kouga kept his eye on Ayame.
"I'm going for a walk," Ayame said silently as she stood walking off. Kouga stood following her.
"Ayame," he called out in a desperate tone. Ayame stopped and turned around.
"It's all right, Kouga. I'm just shaken up. I mean-" Ayame was cut off as Kouga wrapped his arms around her. Compared to him, she was short. She set her cheek against his arm accepting the embrace. Kouga stroked her cheek with the back of his hand.
"Ayame, I know you're scared. I was nervous too, but...I won't let anything happen to you. I'd die before I let something hurt you."
Ayame squeaked as Kouga pulled her back and placed a chaste kiss on her lips. She flushed a bright pink as she buried her face in his soft cotton shirt and giggled.
"What's so funny?" he asked acting dumb. He loved her reactions. Ayame lifted her still pink face.
"That was...my first kiss." She flushed again and giggled. Kouga grabbed her chin lifting it. "That...that was not a kiss."
"It wasn't?" Kouga chuckled at the expression on her face. It was a mixture from confusion, anger, and being dumbstruck. It slowly changed to mischief. "Then what is one?"
Kouga smirked as he moved his hand to the back of her head tangling his fingers into her soft red hair. He tilted her head as he brought his lips to hers. He felt Ayame tense up. Kouga broke away. "Don't be afraid."
Ayame looked at him then to the ground. Kouga sighed closing his eyes. Right before he opened them back he felt himself pushed back. He found Ayame lying on top of him. He attempted to yell at her but lost his words against her lips. She cupped his face as he placed a hand on her back. She positioned her legs in a strandling position as their kiss deepened. Ayame felt his tongue brush against her lips making her shudder. Her heart felt like it was going to explode when she felt him begin to explore her mouth. She let out a moan unable to hold back any longer.
Just as quickly as it had started it ended. Ayame took a sharp breathe for air with her face changing shades quickly.
"Wow..." she breathed out as Kouga stood pulling her up.
"I um...think we better get back," Kouga mused blushing for once. Ayame let out a final laugh realizing how long they'd been gone.
