Kagome came out of the room wearing eye liner, just that for a change instead of her full blush foundation and everything else, and in leather kaprees, skin tight, and a blood red skintight shirt with cuped sleeves. Inuyasha starred at her for a moment then remenbered she was upset with him. he looked away.

"You look pretty." He said simply. They left the building and was walking towards the gate when a old raggy man came up and attempted to grab kagomes butt. Right before he grabbed her, the tip of the tetsyga landed on the man's hand. The man jumped back in surprise then saw it was Inuyasha and begged for forgiveness. Inuyasha waved him away and continued walking with kagome.

About 2 hours after running, inuyasha slows to a stop and lets kagome stand on her own.

"Tired?" she asked. He reached behind him and felt a huge rip in his pant leg and a dagger in him thigh. He winces and pulls it out, thanking gods it wasn't to far in.

"No." He replies shakily showing her the dagger. She gasps as he drops the dagger and takes off his jacket, handing it to her. "Put it on. It will keep you from getting hurt." Once she took his jacket he inspected the hole in his pants.obviously too bigger then the dagger by far so it wasn't caused by it.There was a sudden movement out of the corner of his eye. "kagome..go move..walk, come on." he pulled on her arm. Kagome noticed he was walking normally as if the stab and pain wasn't there.

"whats going on?" she asked

" were being followed by a mortal. Now I want you to stay down over there in those bushes....go now!" he pushes kagome. She ran to the spot and makes sure she's covered. Inuyasha jumps up into the trees and waits for the prey to come.

"where did they go..shit this isnt good." The mysterious women fakes. She looks around quickly and hears a noise from a few bushes to the right. The women eyes it carefully and slowly walks over to it. She extends a hand to the bushes but then feels a blade against her neck.

"Who are you?" Inuyasha says calmly.

"no one but a young woman seeking for some one." the women says. Inuyasha reaches over and pulls her hood down, spilling her golden hair down over her shoulders. Her hair went down to her waist and her lips were light pink, dull but big (like ) which made her very beautiful but looked slightly pale. She was at most 22 yrs old. Her blue eyes stayed calm but he knew she was a little frightened and was caught off guard. "My lord" She nodded her head.

"what is your name?" Inuyasha asked again

"some call me the unbeatable blonde. others call me Taku short for Tytakuia."

"unbeatable blonde? who would call you that? obviously no smart being." Inuyasha asked.

"They do..even that one.hmm.Sesshomeru ya him he was amazed when I got him on his knees ha but I must say he sure is a stubborn one." She says

"You lie." he says with sudden anger. "If you got him on his knees he would be dead, doubtful, and if you had let him live you would be dead."

"Ah! except if I made a deal said strumpet." She smirks.

"So that's why you're here!" Inuyasha says loudly.

"Ill make a deal with you and forget Sesshomeru's if you wish..there is something I want from you." She asks smiling friendly.

"What do I get out of it?" Inuyasha says half interested. Tuka pulls out a shard of the crystal. It was as thick and ΒΌ of the original crystal.

"Do we have an accord?"

"What do you want from me in return?" Inuyasha asks fully interested now.

"To be part of your pack, I wish to join you and your women."

"Shes not my women!" He says hotly.

"Then can I be?" She asked seriously. Kagome poked her head out of the bushes about 15 feet away from the two so she could hear.

"NO!" he shouted.

"Cuz you love her?" Taku asked pretending to be hurt. Kagome's eyes widen, anxious for his answer. It takes a second for herquestion to sink in then he has a dramatic mood change.

"I should kill you where you stand and take the shard." He says seriously angry. Tuka unbuckles her belt, all her daggers and her samurai sword drop to the ground.

"You wouldn't kill an unarmed woman would you."

"One who stabbed me? Why not? Ill do it just for fun!" Taku gets frightened thinking he means it. then..

"INUYASHA!" Kagome yells. He turns and half smiles.

"uh..i didn't mean it honest kagome!" he said thinking 'oh shit oh shit oh shit'.

"Hi Im kagome." Kagome says making inuyasha put down the tetsyga.

"Im taku..well its short for tytakuia but I a sure you Im harmless." She says picking up her belt and her daggers which fell out. Each dagger's handle was graved out of black granite and at theend was a dragonhead. Each handle had a word printed on it horizontally. One said Tokyo. Kagome kept that in mind. Also her outfit was a mortal samurai outfit.not from this world..strange.

"Do you travel to interesting places.maybe more civilized places?.Taku?" Kagome knew she would catch taku there. Taku's head rose. She looked at inuyasha first who was trying to make sense of what kagome had said, the at kagome.

"yes." She said seriously then smiled, "alright alright you caught me..yes im from your world..earth. I ran away from my home when I was 9. An old man found me and showed me the well..I ran away from home because..no reason really.I got to much attention..being in the same blood line of the last emperor and all.now are we gonna stand here or are we gonna go! Look its almost already 4 oclock.!" She smiled. They took off.

They were all walking together threw the forest when inuyasha though of interesting.

"Taku..? Why did you want to come with us?"

"that doesn't matter to you"

"Awww come on...." then it hit him. "hmm it wouldn't have to Sesshomeru would it? He asked.

"why does it matter to you, I wont kill you in your sleep-" She was stopped as the blade of the tetsyga touched her neck .again.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome protested.

"Quiet! Something fishy is going on and I want it to be gone." He said angrily as he glanced at kagome...bad thing to have done. While he wasn't watching his opponent, she silently drew her sword, used her tutue Bou linga technique to sent his sword fling off and hit the ground. He turned to get it when he felt the end of her samurai sword at his neck. "fishy.definitely you." She didn't flinch, even when kagome came at her. She drew one dagger with the other hand, caught kagome, twirled her in so she was facing inuyasha (who was pissed off as hell now) and put the dagger right above her heart. "Fucking A!" Inuyasha said amazed at the fact she did all that without taking her eyes off of inuyasha.

"I was sent here to kill you yes." She released kagome who was taken into the arms of inuyasha, "after getting your brother to his knees I made a deal with him that he'd give me the location of you two and your weaknesses, then I kill you and your precious woman I return the shards and not only do I get half I get the tetsyga and him..the part I didn't like is I had to sleep with him before I left" she said quieting down and almost said in a whisper; "He said he wouldn't kill the woman who carried his child.ugh" she said then became louder. "anyway I wont kill you because I know he wont kill me I dont think he'd lie about something like that.you can use me to your advantage. Although you don't have long because he's on our tails, he's back two cities. Now do you understand that I wont hurt you? If you attack me and start a fight I must follow the rules of my recent home and kill you." Inuyasha grunted in respones then nodded his head. She put away her sword and went and retrieved his sword. But he was not so easily fooled (He was being stupid thinking she's lieing) and once he got his sword he flashed behind taku and pulled her hair, her head coming back and put the blade to her neck.

"Youre lieing you onna." Inuyasha yelled. Taku only sighed.

"You want to fight fairly then?" Taku said more as a demand then a question. They both drowned out kagome's protesting. He let her go then backed up and got into pose. She drew her sword and too, got in pose. He attacked first and swung to the left side. Taku blocked easily then swung hard over head. He almost got hit but blocked just in time then went straightforward for a stab threw the heart. She simply turned and kicked him in the knees. As he fell she used the flat side her sword and hit his hand making him drop it. She kicked it away never taking her eyes off inuyasha and pointed the end of her sword right at his adam's apple. He slowly stood and was distracted when kagome came up and pushed inuyasha back. Taku kept her eye on inuyasha but pointed the sword at kagome.

" if your gonna kill one of us make it me." Kagome said tears running down her cheeks. "I couldn't go on if inuyasha was killed." Taku smiled at the love kagome was radiating for inuyasha. Inuyasha stood amazed and he smiled. Kagome had proved her love to him. As much as he knew he shouldn't, once he had realized what she was doing he did, he fell in love. Taku drew her sword back and put it in it holster.

"I had no intention of killing him but I couldn't kill one loved much as he is." Taku smiled picked up inuyasha's sword and threw it to him. Then she pulled out the shard and tossed it to him. "Now lets get some rest!"

* * *

When Taku was positive the two were asleep she stood up and crept slowly away then jumped high in to the trees. When she was at the top of one of the tall trees, she could see for miles. She spotted Sesshomeru right off. She jumped from tree to tree until she was in his arms.

" they fell for it, You'll get those shards, then you'll be the most powerful demon there is. I've changed my mind though.." Sesshomeru's smile faded

"what do you mean?" he asks letting her go.

"The human girl. She was so sad when I had inuyasha on his knees. I know it sounds stupid but I could tell in her eyes that she knows he doesn't love her but she'd die for him. I've never seen someone with so much courage and love. It almost hurts." Sesshomeru was pissed, he shook his head and back up. " mero.my plan is to kidnap kagome then use her as bate then lure inuyasha in and kill him! Doesn't that sound good?" She asked. He quickly understood and gathered her in his arms and kissed her passionately. Inuyasha was there in time only to see them kiss. Taku pulled away. "he's watching." She whispered. "one more kiss then I have to go." She licked his lips and crushed her mouth on his forcing his mouth open and winning the battle of tongues. That's what interested him most, she was unpredictable when it came down to kissing and sex. She pulled away, grabbed his hand and kissed each finger.

"Ill see you later woman." He stated. She nodded, dropped his hand and jumped down the trees to the ground where Inuyasha was with his arms crossed.

"So what was that? Daily check up?" inuyasha sounded furious

"Hey hey hey, Im guilding him into a plan that will....backfire! just following up you know...jeez do you know how much ass I have to kiss?" She starts walking back to where kagome was. They both just went to bed.

* * *

The next day at lunch they stopped to eat some grub. But Taku left her backpack at the place where they slept last night. So inuyasha offered to run back and get it, which would take half an hour. While inuyasha was off kagome and taku talked a lot..

"..so yeah.I was 16 when I met Sesshomeru. We never stayed together though we'd talk and talk and stuff got steamy.." she started to blush. "about a year after when we were walking around the top of a waterfall, when I .I almost tripped and would have fallen off except he caught me and pulled me to his chest. I remember I was so scared and even more scared when I was so close to him. Rumors were floating around my village that he had killed my neighbor's kid because the kid was hitting him with a wooden sword.But I know now it isnt true.anyway I reached up and cupped his cheek and kissed him." she smiles in remembrance of how brave she was.it was her first kiss, "then that night.everything went wonderfully. He's a nasty man but inside hes a mortal boy basiclly.scared about life and enemies and needs someone to care about him. We.never actually told each other how we feel for each other it sounds stupid but when he said he'd never hurt the woman who carried his child.It was soo romantic.heh" She shrugged it off and finished polishing the last dagger and put them all away.

"why are you helping us if you like sesshomeru so much?" kagome asked

"cuz I don't think its right for a man to want to seriously kill his brother.." she replied as if it was nothing.

"uhmm..if you don't mind me asking what was your..first time like..you know I mean sex?" Kagome asked as she blushed and looked at the ground.

"hhmmmm heh honestly.for me it hurt like hell but everyones different.and it comes down to how big the guy is.I figured the pain came from how big meru is .."she said glancing at kagome who had omg look. "It was great though, the best part of it was how we did it. You wouldn't be interested would you?" She chuckled.

"Kagome blushed and looked down. "yes..I would.." she whispered.

"Well he was sitting up and I was on his lap except I was facing away from him.It's the best we've tried I think" She replied with a wink.

"You know inuyasha doesn't love me right?" Kagome asked

"ouch..yeah?"

"well ..I love him.and ive well...offered myself to him..but he refused to sleep with me if I don't want it..somehow he can just..tell...I want him though..do you think I should go for it and have fun with it even if he doesn't love me? I don't want him to have to deal with me this miserable. I want him to be happy.." Kagome said quietly. Neither Taku nor kagome noticed Inuyasha behind them.

"why are you asking me..ask youself."

"I already know my answer. I want him to love me first.but I know I have more luck with king kong then I do.with.him." Tears roll down her cheek. Inuyasha dropped taku's bag with a thud. Taku and Kagome looked back. Kagome stood and started walking away to ashamed, of spilling her self again, to look at him. He caught up and pulled kagome into his arms. She grabbed his shoulders and cried into his neck. He held her til she stopped crying. Taku took this as a cue and headed south so she could "go to the bathroom."
