Chapter 7: Recovering

Kagome snuck out of the kitchen and headed down the long hallway full of pictures.

She stopped to look at one. It had Kouga and Rei in the front, and what Kagome guessed where there parents, in the back. Kougas father was a tall, very tan man that had dark brown messy hair. His mother, on the other hand, was a well-groomed, beautiful woman. She wore a green, silk kimono that matched her eyes. That must be were Rei got her beauty and eyes from.

Kagome didn't dawdle any more in fear of Rei catching her. Kagome sped walked towards the garage door and opened it.

She glanced back to see if anyone was following her, but no one was there.

She carefully made it down the steps and walked towards the next door. She cracked it open slightly, just in case someone was there.

~! *~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!

Ittou charged towards the barely conscious Inuyasha with his sword.

Inuyasha looked up and saw what Ittou was doing. Red flickered in his eyes. Ittous swords red aura matched the red in Inuyashas eyes. Ittou failed to see this change though.

Inuyasha picked up Tetsasaiga and shielded himself with it. Ittou swung his sword down, hitting Inuyashas and knocking it out of the way, making Inuyasha vulnerable to Ittous attack.

Ittou struck Inuyasha in the chest with his sword that made a ^ mark on his chest from the other wound he made earlier.

Inuyasha lost consciousness and hit the ground with a thud.

"Is he dead?"

"No Kouga, just unconscious."

"Well finish him off. And hurry."

Kagome saw what happened to her beloved man. Tears formed in her eyes and fell down her rosy cheeks. Her chest started to hurt again with agonizing pain. She ignored it. All she was focused on was Inuyasha.

'I have to save him! But how? If I go out there, Ittou will kill me for interfering. I must get a weapon and hit him when he least expects it. Kagome opened the door and went to the closet.

'There has to be something usable in here.' Kagome rummaged through the boxes, but didn't find any weapons that could be of use to her.

She walked out of the closet, making sure she was seen, and looked around. 'Hm. If I can get past Kouga and grab a weapon off that shelf, then I could hit Ittou and hopefully kill him.'

Kagome crept past Kouga, which wouldn't have noticed her anyway because he was intent on killing Inuyasha, and made it to the shelf.

All she could see was an assortment of swords. She wasn't a very good at handling a sword. But the she noticed a bow and quiver. She picked them up and examined them.

'I took archery lessons in high school and was the best one next to Kikyou. Hopefully I can still remember how to do this.'

Kagome strung an arrow and aimed it for Ittous heart.

~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*

Sango broke the kiss and looked at Mirokus wounds. They were serious, but not life threatening. 'It looks like he has a few broken ribs and cuts all over his body. But other than that he will be alright. I am soo relieved.'

"Sango?"

"Hai?"

"Can I lay in your lap?"

"Of course."

Miroku shifted himself so that he was laying in Sango's lap. 'That's much comfier than that couch.' Sango blushed and looked up towards the ceiling.

"Can I do anything for you? Do you need any pain killer?"

"All I need is for you to be at my side forever."

"I wouldn't want it any other way"

Miroku soon fell asleep again. Sango was kind of uncomfortable but she didn't move because of Miroku. 'As long as he is happy and comfortable.'

Sango felt herself falling asleep but was woke up by Rei gently tapping her shoulder.

Sango awoke and blushed. Miroku was still laying in her lap fast asleep.

"Um. Sorry to interrupt but have you seen Kagome? She's not in the kitchen and I can't find her." Rei giggled at the sight of Miroku and Sango.

"N-no I haven't seen her since I left the kitchen"

"O. Well can I borrow you for a moment and have you help me find her?"

"Sure, let me wake up Miroku."

Sango nudged Miroku who, awoke with a start.

"Yes my dear?"

"I have to go find Kagome. I want you to stay here and rest. I will be back soon."

"Ok"

Sango got up and bent down to kiss Miroku before leaving him. Sango and Rei searched all over the house for Kagome but couldn't find her.

"O my GOD! I know where she is!"

"WHERE?"

"She is with Inuyasha! She could be in danger! Lets hurry and get her before she gets herself killed!"

Sango rushed as fast as she could, but like Kagome, she was pregnant and could not go that fast.

*CLASH*

"Oh no! Hurry Sango!"

Sango and Rei made it down the long hallway and reached the garage door at last.

The hurried to the other side of the garage and quietly opened the door.

Rei and Sango sneaked in and looked for Kagome silently. Rei's eyes fell upon Kagome who was holding a bow and arrow.

"There she is Sango!" Rei whispered.

Sango saw where Rei was pointing and saw Kagome.

Sango gasped at what she was bout to do.

Rei apparently noticed this also and ran towards her, not caring if she was seen.

Kagome saw her friends coming for her and yelled at the top of her lungs, "DIE ITTOU!"

Kagome let her arrow fly. Inuyasha regained consciousness and witnessed what Kagome had done. 'Kagome! I'm so glad she's ok'

A purple aura amazingly surrounded Kagomes arrow. Kagome had the same purple aura around her. Ittou saw her arrow come straight for him and tried to dodge it but was unsuccessful.

The arrow hit Ittou in his shoulder and Ittou fell to the ground. 'What kind of power is this?' Rei screamed and ran to Ittou as he fell.

Kouga turned around to see Kagome. "Kagome! What have you done you bitch!" Kouga slapped Kagome had across the face, knocking her down.

Sango saw what Kouga did and ran over to him. "YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU HIT KAGOME! SHE'S PREGNANT!" Sango punched Kouga right in the eye and knocked him down.

Sango started kicked Kouga in the stomach, making him cough up blood. "DON'T YOU EVER TOUCH KAGOME AGAIN YOU BASTARD!"

Kagome just stood there in awe. "Sango! Stop! You're going to kill him if you keep it up! How did you find me?"

Sango stopped kicking the shit outta Kouga and turned to Kagome.

"Easy. You wanted to see Inuyasha so Rei and me ran out here.

"O shit Inuyasha! I forgot about him!"

Inuyasha passed out again after Ittou was struck with the arrow. Kagome ran to Inuyasha. 'Good thing he passed out before he saw what Kouga did to me.'

Kagome had a cut on her cheek from Kougas slap. She ran over to Inuyasha and dragged him towards the door to the garage. 'I have to get him out of here before Ittou comes and kills us all.'

Rei was still at Ittous side. Ittou looked up at her and said, "I don't need your help"

"I don't care if you need my help or not. I am going to stay here with you. Now let me get the arrow out of your shoulder."

Ittou was amazed at this woman. She cared for him even though she could see that he did not care for her.

Ittou winced as Rei pulled the arrow out of his shoulder. It was bleeding a lot. "Come with me. I will treat your wounds."

"I am not going anywhere"

"O yes you are! Your coming with me whether you like it or not."

Rei took Ittous unhurt arm and dragged him towards the door.

Sango was helping Kagome get Inuyasha to the kitchen. Sango stopped and saw what Rei was doing.

"Rei! What are you doing? Get Ittou away from here! He'll kill Inuyasha if he has the chance!"

"I will not. For one, I am to injured to battle and I would be a coward to strike a man when he is not even fully conscious."

Sango gave Ittou a weird look and mumbled something about weirdo's. She continued to help Kagome get Inuyasha to the kitchen.

When everyone arrived to the kitchen, Kagome and Sango laid Inuyasha on the ground and went upstairs to grab bandages and medicine. Rei followed them upstairs

Ittou took a seat on a bar stool and waited for the women to return.

When they returned, Kagome went to dress Inuyashas wounds, Rei went to help Ittou get his bandages in place, and Sango went to go see how Miroku was doing.

When Sango entered, Miroku sat up and looked at his bride. She was cut up from the battle and was badly injured, yet she still helping others and acted as if she was perfectly fine.

Sango informed Miroku about the events that had just happened. Miroku nodded and asked,

"Sango, have you bandaged your back yet?"

"No, I have been to busy to worry about myself."

"Let me to that for you, please. I don't want you to bleed anymore."

"Fine."

Sango laid down on the couch and Miroku lifted up her shirt exposing her wound and bare flesh.

After Miroku was done bandaging Sango, he said, "Sango, you should keep you shirt off your wound so it can heal."

"Yeah right. You just want me to keep my shirt off you lech."

"No, actually in serious."

Sango gave him a weird look and sat up. She wasn't about to take off her whole entire clothing so she just lifted up the back part of her shirt and nothing more.

Miroku rubbed her arms, making her shiver at his touch. Miroku gently kissed the back of her neck and laid her down again.

"Miroku, you shouldn't be moving. You are in pain, I can feel it."

"I'm fine. You are the one that needs to not move. If you move, you will open your wound again."

Sango laid her head on a pillow and fell asleep. Miroku left to go see how everyone was doing.

Miroku entered the kitchen and saw Kagome. "Kagome! How is Inuyasha doing?"

"O Miroku! I was worried about you! Are you ok?"

"Yes I am fine. Now what about Inuyasha?"

Miroku looked down at his friend. He lay on the floor motionless with tons of bandages covering his body.

"He's doing better. Once he regains consciousness, I am going to see if he will go lay down in the spare bedroom."

Miroku nodded and turned his attention to a very beautiful lady who was bandaging Ittous shoulder.

"There, that's better now isn't it Ittou?"

"Whatever. I didn't ask for your help"

"But I gave it to you anyway"

'Could this woman have feelings for me? Could I have feelings for her? No way. I will never love. She is just a bitch.'

"What's your name?"

"Rei."

'That's a pretty name. Wait! What am I thinking?'

Ittou shook the thoughts out of his head. No. He could never love. Never.

Inuyasha awoke with a start. "Kagome! I was so worried about you!"

Inuyasha tried to hug Kagome but he hurt too much to move.

"Inuyasha, I am fine. Now you on the other hand." Kagome ran her hand down Inuyashas cheek. 'Gods her touch feels good'

"Inuyasha. You need to go lay down. I'll take you to a guest bedroom.

Kagome helped Inuyasha up. Inuyasha leaned on Kagome for support. Slowly but surely they made it up the stairs and went to the spare bedroom.

Kagome laid Inuyasha down on a bed that was covered with dark blue silk sheets.

Inuyasha reached up and touched Kagomes cheek were a cut was placed from Kouga.

"What happened to you?"

"Nothing. Its nothing."

Kagome turned away from Inuyasha so that he could not see her.

Inuyasha frowned at her.

"Kagome, you're keeping something from me. Tell me what happened"

"You promise you wont get mad?"

"Promise"

Kagome sat down on the bed by Inuyasha. "Kouga slapped me and called me a bitch once I injured Ittou. But don't worry, Sango already took care of him."

Kagome bent down and kissed Inuyasha. Inuyasha smiled and said, "I love you."

"I love you too"

Inuyasha reached up and touched Kagomes tummy rubbing it. "Soon we will have a baby. I can't wait."

"Me either" 'He is going to be a great father.

Kagome laid down next to Inuyasha and laid her head on his shoulder, being careful not to hurt him.

Inuyasha went to sleep and so did Kagome.

~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*~!*

Back in the kitchen.

"Ittou please!"

"NO!"

"Ittou quit being so stubborn and listen to me!"

"Why should I listen to you wench?"

"WENCH? EXCUSE ME!? Don't make me stab you in your other shoulder"

"I'd like to see you try!"

"Grr! I'm going to get you!"

Rei chased Ittou all around the kitchen. Miroku and Sango just stood there dumbfounded. "How long have they been arguing?"

"Ever since Kagome and Inuyasha left."

"And now.."

"They're chasing each other around like little children" Sango finished.

"These people just get weirder and weirder."

"I agree"

"Do you want some tea?"

"Id love some. Lets leave these two lovers alone."

Ittou stopped chasing Rei. "LOVERS? I don't think so. I could never love her."

Rei blushed at Mirokus comment and then got sad when Ittou said he could never love her.

"Why can't you love me?"

"Because I will never love anyone"

'We'll see about that'

Miroku and Sango grabbed their tea and was about to head for the kitchen, when Kouga entered.

"WHERE'S INUYASHA AND KAGOME?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"I'm going to get you back for what you did, Sango. But in the mean time I need to find MY Kagome."

"They're upstairs." Ittou said. Sango, Miroku, and Rei gave Ittou a dirty look for ratting out Inuyasha.

Before someone could say anything, Kouga dashed up the stairs with anger in his eyes.
