{----[ Chapter Four: A Bit More Dangerous ]----}

Tension was thick in the air-conditioned room. Instincts and demon blood were taking over Inuyasha's crazed and covetous mind. He couldn't fight it off. He tried to at first, but hesitantly stopped and let it win him over. Something in him had just snapped and he NEVER wanted ANYONE near HIS Kagome again!

Inuyasha's demon side was different than Inuyasha's normal self. His normal self would have been too stubborn to admit he was jealous and he would think he was still in love with Kikyo, the undead priestess. His normal self would be too shy, but his demon side saw Kagome as his and he was going to take what was his. Although, his demon side kept thinking about how Kagome had betrayed him and went around with another guy! He didn't know if there were more of these 'guys'. One thing that was in common with both Inuyasha's normal and demon self: they both wanted and needed Kagome.

In the back of his mind, he felt it was partly his fault because he hadn't marked her, but he had claimed her as his and NO ONE could touch HIS Kagome. So his demon thought he had to teach his Kagome a lesson she would NEVER forget.

One thing that was in common with both Inuyasha's normal and demon self: they both wanted and needed Kagome.

{----[Kagome & Inuyasha]----}

::This is NOT happening:: She sat there stiff, as if frozen solid. She didn't move a muscle or blink a wink. Kagome was still too shocked at Inuyasha's appearance. It was triggering memories of her nightmare last night. ::Am I having a nightmare again?:: Kagome studied his face and saw many emotions flicker cross, but the one he decided to stick with didn't give her much reassurance: revengeful mixed with grief and hopefulness?! ::What does being hopeful have to do with revenge?!::

Kagome partially sweatdropped, but was stopped when Inuyasha reached out and grazed a clawed hand against the skin on her cheek. His nails pricked into her flesh and Kagome winced. It wasn't because of the pain because she barely felt any at all. It was about the person who was actually doing this to her.

A thin trail of blood trickled down the side of her cheek. A little bit of the liquid trailed into her mouth and she sampled the warm copper-tasting substance. Inuyasha applied more pressure and his nails pressed sharper and harder into her flesh. More blood flowed down her face and neck. Inuyasha's claws and his palm were wet, with her dark blood. Kagome was frozen, now in fear and despair. ::Inuyasha...?::

Inuyasha grabbed hold of Kagome's upper arms and pushed Kagome down to her back so she was lying on the bed. He caught her wrists in his bloody hands and held them above her head. She could feel her sticky blood transferring from his palms to hers. Inuyasha straddled her waist and locked his eyes with Kagome's. She stared up into his now red eyes. ::No gold:: Inuyasha stared back with regret and duty. Kagome gulped.

Inuyasha tilted her head to the right side and buried his face in the crook of her neck. She tensed up and blushed a deep scarlet. He inhaled her scent. ::Smells like berries and blood mixed in with Kagome's original sweet scent:: He nuzzled her neck and inhaled deeper. ::Okay. Don't lose focus. MUST teach Kagome a lesson::

Kagome wiggled beneath him, trying to free herself from his grasp, but he was too strong for her. "What are you doing Inuya-" She was cut off when she felt a hand gripping into her shoulder, extremely rigorous. Inuyasha's only responses to her unfinished question were a low possessive growl and a hardening grip.

Kagome heard fabric tearing and could feel cool air brush against the skin on her right shoulder. She could feel sharp nails digging deeper into her flesh. She hissed in pain and she felt Inuyasha's grip loosen on her shoulder, but remain there. Kagome could feel the warmth of her blood as it soaked into her shirt and seeped down her arm. Inuyasha growled possessively.

"Inuyasha, what in Kami-sama's name are you doing?"

He lifted his head from her neck and peered into her chocolate brown eyes that were filled with dread and he knew that she wanted answers for his behavior. His own blood red eyes flickered with jealousy as he whispered harshly one single word. "Mine."

Kagome was dumbfounded. She stared up at him in shock, searching his face for the source of his jealousy and the cause of him claiming her. ::Wait, did he just say 'mine'? Maybe I misheard him:: Kagome blushed as she tried to register the word a few more times in he head, but Inuyasha didn't give her a chance.

He buried his head back in the crook of her neck and nuzzled her. He removed his hand from her right shoulder and placed it back to her hands above her head so he could restrain her. He nipped at her left shoulder roughly and she winced as she felt the sharpness connect with her shoulder. The pressure released for a moment and came back to where her shoulder and neck joined. It took her a moment to realize what the pressure was. ::Inuyasha's biting me!:: Kagome yelped and pushed her body against Inuyasha's chest in a feeble attempt to make him go away.

"Inuyasha! Stop this NOW!"

He didn't let her go. In fact, he sunk his teeth deeper into the connection of her shoulder and neck, damaging her flesh. Kagome yelped again and struggled to get her wrists out of Inuyasha's hands. He held onto her hands tighter and she struggled more. She lifted her hips to push him off of her but he remained there, straddling her waist, knees on each side.

Inuyasha lifted his face up off her neck and glared down at her. He growled dangerously, warning her to stop. Kagome ignored his growl and continued to set herself free of his grip. Inuyasha titled her head to the right roughly and bit harder on the same connection spot as before. She immediately stopped wiggling around beneath him.

After a few moments that Inuyasha was sure she wasn't going to get loose, he stopped biting and Kagome felt relieved that the pressure on her neck was finally gone. Although, the pressure was replaced with something that was warm and wet. ::He's not, is he? Is he -licking me-??::

The licking bath continued and Kagome squirmed under him. Inuyasha moved his one hand back to the wounded right shoulder and reopened the cut. Kagome drew in a deep breath and released it, hoping that would subdue the pain at all. Inuyasha looked up. His face only a couple inches away from her face. He stared in Kagome's brown eyes.

"Mine...." he whispered.

Kagome gulped and tried to pull her hands away from his own. She could feel the heat of his breathe on her face. His mouth was partly open and looked so inviting, but her thoughts about that scared her. Kagome searched his face for any signs of explanation of his behavior today. His claws tracing around the sides of the wound on her right shoulder.

"Inuyasha... let me go! NOW!!" she yelled at him. Inuyasha grew mad at her comment. ::So she wants to go back to that guy of hers. Well she's mine!::

"Only mine," he growled back at her.

"Inuyasha let me go," she said somewhat pleading. "Why are you- mmph!"

For a moment, time stood still for the two who were only caught in each other. Soft like a feather, Inuyasha gently laid his lips on Kagome's. His eyes were closed and hers were open, shocked and dumbfounded. He pressed his lean-muscled body close to Kagome's soft and fragile one. Her eyes remained open and her body tense. Inuyasha pressed his mouth more firmly against Kagome's. She remained still and frigid in her first chaste kiss.

Inuyasha pulled back when he found she wasn't kissing him back. He stared into her wide chocolate brown orbs looking for an answer. His red eyes blazed and his mouth was set in a grim line. She had to turn away from his intense gaze.

After a few moments, he moved off of her body to a sitting up position on the bed, but continued to look at her study her profile. He removed his hand from her wounded shoulder. He released some of the grip on her wrists and she took advantage of the moment, sliding her hands away. Kagome sat up and turned to face him with her eyes blazing with rage and confusion.

"How dare you Inuyasha!" Kagome raised her bloody hand and a crack rang through the room. Inuyasha's head never moved. His right cheek was tainted with a bloody handprint. He could still feel the stinging sensation pulsing on his cheek, but he chose to ignore it. His eyes darkened and he growled low and dangerous. ::Seems she didn't learn her lesson::

Kagome stared at Inuyasha's face as it contorted in outrage. Her hand was stinging but he deserved it for what he did to her. Her wound on her cheek was still slightly bleeding. The one on her shoulder had reopened when she had moved to slap Inuyasha. The bite on the connection of her shoulder and neck had caused her a lot of trouble and it hurt whenever she took in a breath. Her wrists were extremely red from the pressure of his hands when he held them above her head. Oh yeah. He definitely deserved more than just a mere simple slap.

"How dare you Inuyasha! You have no right to - whoa!" Kagome rolled off the bed and fell to a heap on the floor. She ducked just in time, missing the swing of Inuyasha's claws. "Ow! Inuyasha! Sit boy!"

Inuyasha was lucky though because he was on a bed and it didn't hurt so much. Luckily, he didn't break the bed. He growled and he was most definitely pissed off. Kagome got up off the floor when the spell started wearing off. Inuyasha reached out to grab her but...

"SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!" Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Crack. Bed broke. "And there's more from where that's coming Inuyasha!!" She gazed down at him for a while before turning around to walk to the window. "Alright Inuyasha." Kagome turned around to face where Inuyasha was lying but her eyes met with a very bad scene.

Inuyasha rose up and his eyes were glowing dark red. His grayish white hair was flying all over the place. His nails were still tainted with her blood and he was staring at her with hatred. The blood that transferred from her hand to his cheek was still there, along with the dark shade of her slap mark. ::Inuyasha....:: Kagome gulped and he flew at her with his claws, ready to strike her down.

"Ahhh!" She ducked just in time- AGAIN! Inuyasha flew straight out the closed window, breaking it and shattering the glass all over the place. The chips of the broken glass sliced little marks on Kagome's arms and face. She got up off the ground and looked out the window, gazing out in the bright outside world to find Inuyasha's remains on the ground.

::He's not there. Where'd he disappear to?:: Kagome heard a door opening and turned around reluctantly, hoping her eyes didn't meet fierce blood red eyes. Her eyes met HOJO?!

"Hojo? What are you doing here?" Hojo stared at Kagome in disbelief. He walked over to her and looked at her up and down before meeting her confused gaze.

"Kami no ai. What happened to you, Kagome? Are you all right? What happened here?" Hojo traced the cut on her cheek. Kagome winced slightly and Hojo immediately stopped his little ministrations. "Come on. Let's go get you cleaned up." He reached to grab her wrist, but she pulled her hand away. "It's all right Kagome. I won't hurt you."

Hojo reached out to capture her hand lightly in his own and she let him. "I'll clean you up and you can tell me what happened." He led her out of the room into the bathroom to find some bandages to help Kagome's cuts. Something seriously was going on with Kagome that she wasn't telling him.

{----[Somewhere in the City]----}

It was dark in her room, almost pitch black but she didn't bother to turn on any of the lights. She sat there in the lonely darkness, with the only source of light in the room coming from the pink jewel on the necklace she was fingering. No one was home except for her. She was alone. The only company was her thoughts and the pink jewel.

::Someday I'll get what I want and starting with this little jewel, I can do whatever I please. Someday::

Meiwaku started laughing. It sounded like nails racking across a chalkboard. It was low at first but the sound of her laughter grew and she grew more confident in her plan she was scheming up in her head. Things were going to become a bit more dangerous.
