Chapter 2:

The Secret Chamber



"InuYasha, where are we?" Kagome asked through the darkness of the cave.

"Deep under...nevermind you'll see' he replied mysteriously, and from the sound of his voice she could tell he was

far ahead of her.

"Try and keep up, will you wench?" he said in his usual sarcastic tone.

"I can't believe I kissed you!" Kagome shouted.

"Calm down Higurashi, you know you want me. Now keep up" he snapped back.

"It's hard to keep up with you in the dark, not everyone has night vision like the almighty

InuYasha you know." she said rather darkly.

InuYasha could only laugh as he imagined Kagome's lips in a pout. "Are you from this era or aren't you?

The last time I checked, Kagome Higurashi knew something called a flashlight."

InuYasha laughed again and Kagome stopped in her tracks. She rolled her eyes at her own

stupidity as she pulled her little flashlight from her purse and shone it into

the darkness. Light filled the cave, and she realized she was all alone. She looked around

the cave, walking in circles, and still, no one. A trickle of fear began to sink into her skin.

"Inu-InuYasha?" she called, her small voice trembling. Only silence gave her a response.

She continued to desperately search through the cave until finally she came to a wide

opening. Straight in front of her was stone wall, on either side there lye narrow passageways.

Should she go left or right? Should she try to make it back to the entrance and find InuYasha?

She knew she had been searching for InuYasha for quite sometime now, and she was beginning

to lead to the conclusion that they was all just some cruel trick. Girls tend to jump to

conclusions when it comes to the one they love. No, not love. It couldn't be...it was an...

infatuation. An infatuation with a hanyou? With...InuYasha?!

She held her flashlight up to the stone that rest in between the passageways. On the wall

was a hanyou looking much like Sesshomaru/InuYasha and guessing from the faded and chipped color, it had been

painted many years ago. Kagome stepped closer to the stone, there was something about

the hanyou painting that troubled her. Just below the picture was ancient red writing.

She heard a low growling sound and was becoming drawn to the hanyou. It was almost as if....

"Come on Higurashi! Honestly, I can't bring you anywhere without you getting lost.....wondering

off to god knows where...." InuYasha teased.

Kagome quickly whirled around to face InuYasha, the picture quickly fading from her mind.

She walked up to InuYasha, and did something she hadn't done before, and slapped

him across the face. He touched his cheek, looking stunned.

"Don't you EVER do that to me again!" she demanded.

"Why you little bitch! Im gonna...."

"Can't unless you catch me!" she said loudly, drowning out the last words of his sentence.

She ran away, laughing.

InuYasha grabbed his flashlight from his pocket (A/N: DOn't ask how these things just appear lol) and took off running after her. She ran

through the cave, having no idea where she was going, and yet never once looking behind

her. She didn't need to look over her shoulder to know that he was not too far behind

her. She had become a much better runner than she had been in her earlier years from chasing all those demons.

Just then, she felt a gentle tap on her right shoulder, and looked just in time to see InuYasha

pass her, gaining speed every moment. She couldn't believe she forgot, he's a hanyou! She sped up, closing in on

the distance between them. This time it was she who tapped him on the shoulder and

passed him, or at least she would have done so if he hadn't grabbed her by the hand and

kissed her powerfully, just as quickly running away. She froze for a moment, shocked

by the kiss, but began to run again, wondering if they would ever reach this mystery

destination. No sooner did this thought leave her mind did she stop running, for she had

entered an ancient, beautiful chamber.

There wasn't any furniture in the chamber, no pictures on the wall, nor windows. It was

very simple, but elegant. It was obvious that no one visited this place often. But then again,

who would? And why would they? It wasn't the most breathtaking place she had ever

seen, but it was the most mysterious. The only things the chamber did hold within it was

an exotic spring that took up almost half of the chamber. It was off, out of place, and

clearly magical. The waters of the spring ran silver. Besides that, there were a few statues

scattered about the room of who Kagome guessed were of famous wizards of the past.

"Is....this what you wanted to show me?" Kagome asked curiously.

InuYasha nodded and untied his jacket and threw it onto the chair that appeared just in time

to catch it. Kagome's eyes widened. Never before had she seen magic like that. He

then removed his boots and also set them by the chair. Kagome's curious eyes went from

the spring to InuYasha and realized what he wanted to do. InuYasha noticed the eyes upon him.

He looked up at Hermione and smiled. "Aren't you going to undress to swim? It's the perfect

weather outside for a nice warm swim. " he said, removing his black silk shirt and black

pants. Kagome turned away, blushing. She looked back at InuYasha, trying not to make it

look obvious what she was doing and saw that his back was facing towards her. She didn't

notice it at first glance, but when she looked a second time there was no way of missing them.

InuYasha had scars all over his back that spread up onto his shoulders. Scars that could only

have been made from powerful demons.

He turned around to see Kagome looking at him, a smirk spreading from his lips.

"Watching me undress are you Higurashi? That's awful naughty for a virgin to be

doing." he said teasingly. For once, Kagome did not respond with a sassy remark. She

turned InuYasha around so she could look at his scars more carefully, she traced a finger

along all of them gently. InuYasha flinched a bit, and turned around before Kagome could

do anymore.

"Please don't tell anyone Kagome." he pleaded with desperation in his eyes. He hadn't

called her wench nor bitch. He had called her Kagome.
