Chapter?: Putting Part 2 of The Plan Into Action.








*********************************************************************



Kagome's sobs eventualy began to become softer, and then, non-existent. She held on tight to Inuyasha, letting his haori dry up her remaining tears. She felt his arms holding on to her so protectively, she had never felt so safe before in her life. She knew then that he was right, she did belong with him, being in his arms just felt so right. As much as she would have liked to continue their embrace, she pulled away from him and backed off a few spaces.











Inuyasha felt her slip out of his arms, and then she was standing in front of him. He loved her so much, but could he realy do this to her? Was it fair for him to make her leave her own time...but..was that her own time? She belonged with him, whenever that was, and that was what he knew for sure. He looked at her, standing in front of him, with a slight smile on her face, her eyes were still puffy from the crying, he could see tracks from the tears.












"Inuyasha?..I guess you want to know what my solution is..don' t you?", her voice sounded almost normal again, no longer frighteningly emotionless.








Inuyasha nodded, he was still way too surprised from the previous goings on to have fully regained the power of speech yet. He looked at her with curious eyes.







"Inuyasha..you don't..still want to become full demon, do you?"








'Become full demon?, its had been a good while since I've wanted to do that!'..he simply shook his head no.






"Then, can I use the jewel?, can I use the wish?"








'If she dousn't want me to become full human, then why the fuck would she need the jewel?', he asked himself, trying to figure it out.










Kagome smiled a little at his confusion..she should have known she would have to spell it out for him.






"What do you want the jewel for?", he asked, not because he wanted it, not because he wouldn't let her have it, but simply for curiousitys sake.








"Its the solution to the problem Inuyasha.."








"What is?"






"The wish.."






"Stop speaking in fucking riddles and explain it to me!"







Kagome giggled slightly.







"I want to use it to become hanyou...that way I can be with you forever.."








"BECOME HANYOU!?!"







"Yes, I figure that if it has the power to make you, a half demon, a full youkia, then wouldn't it have the power to make me, a human, a hanyou...Kikyou even thought it could make a hanyou into a human, so, it should be able to make a human into a hanyou, simple logic, Inuyasha.."..she smirked at him, as she explained her reasoning, all though she knew that that was not what he had meant by his little outburst.








"Why do you want to become a hanyou!? You won't be able to visit your friends, or your family! And you'll be hated by most humans and full Youkia, you want fit in anywhere!"









"Inuyasha, your forgetting, why would I not be able to see my family? Even if I did look hanyou, they have saw you before. And as for friends, I don't know if you have noticed this or not, but, my friends pretty much consist of you guys. And, why would I care if I were to be hated by most humans and full Youkai? I have you guys, you all are all I need. And about fitting in, you said I belonged with you, and I think I fit in perfectly there.", she explained again, calmly, she had had this all thought out well.













Inuyasha looked stumped for a moment, as he considered what she had just said. It DID make sense...









"What about your test things you like so much? What about skooool?", he asked.









"Its, school.", corrected Kagome, pronouncing the word correctly, "And, I think I can live without it, your the one who has always said there is no need for it."










"Yeah, but you say that there is a need for it in your time!, and, if you become hanyou, then, eventualy you will live untill that time!"










Kagome once again smiled, as this was another point she had already expected him to make.








"Then, when the time comes that I need school, I will go, I'll just start where I left off."









Inuyasha knew that he had been beat. Still yet, he wouldn't except defeat that easily. He searched franticaly in his mind for anything else he could point out, finaly, finding nothing else, he grabbed onto, what must have been, the lamest excuse in the world.










"But...you'll lose your hair color!"








Kagome couldn't help but laugh at that..THAT was something she had not expected him to say.







"YOUR RIGHT INUYASHA! WHATEVER WAS I THINKING?! NOT MY BELOVED HAIR COLOR!."Kagome screamed in mock terror, and then went into fits of giggles.











"Feh..fine then...become hanyou, I don't care.."..Inuyasha finaly agreed, he didn't realy know why he couldn't just accept it in the first place..he wanted her to be with him..it wasn't that he was trying to prevent it..he had just been warning her. But, seeing as how she had already accepted all of that, he figured..what the hell, why not?








Kagome fought back more giggles.'Changing hair color?, thats the best he could do?!'..










"Well, when are you gonna do it wench, we haven't got forever!", he complained.









"Actualy Inuyasha, YOU do have forever, and, soon, I will too.", she said, finaly choking back laughter.









Inuyasha smiled slightly at the idea of the two spending eternity together..it was an idea he liked a lot. Then he remembered one last thing he had forgot to warn her about.









"Kagome, you will have to watch Miroku and Sango get old and die, and then you will watch their children do the same, and then the cycle will repeat, you will have to go through the same process with almost everyone you are close to."










The smile Kagome had possessed earlier, vanished from her face.








"I know that Inuyasha, I have came to terms with it..I accept that..", she said, solemnly. Kagome then pulled out the jewel from around her neck.








"How do I use it?", she asked Inuyasha.







"I don't know..I think you just..wish.."






"I wander if this will purify it..Kikyou said that if you were to use it to become human, it would be purified, as that would be a pure wish..I can't help but wander if this wish is pure..", mused Kagome.







"Feh..just use it and we'll find out!"









"Do you think you should stand back or anything?" asked Kagome, unsure of what exactly would happen when she made her wish.









Inuyasha said nothing, but did step back a few feet.










Kagome smiled at him and removed the jewel from around her neck. She held it up in front of her.







"Well..here it gos..", she murmered.









**********************************







Kagome didn't know exactly what to say..how was she supposed to wish? She decided to just play at by ear.








"Jewel of the four souls, I have a wish to make.", she began softly, the jewel began to glow a light pink. "I wish to be a dog hanyou, so that I may live with Inuyasha without ever being forced to leave him because of old age, I love him, Please grant my wish, so that I may live through whatever horrible destiny that fate sees fit for me, with him."








"Well..that sure was encouraging!", snorted Inuyasha sarcasticaly.









Before Kagome could reply to his little comment, she was blinded by a humungous flourescent pink light.




********************


Inuyasha watched, as a glowing pink light engulfed Kagome, so that he could no longer see her. The light seemed to last for hours, but only seconds went by. Inuyasha listened, the light emmited a soft almost soothing hum.







Finaly, the light disappeared, as well as the jewel.










Inuyasha looked to where Kagome had previously been standing, and, was at first horrified to find her gone, then, his eyes caught site of her body, laying in the grass below. She looked unconcous.









"Kagome?", he ran up to her. At first, she didn't move, or make any sign that she had heard him.










"Kagome?!", he asked again, concerned.








"Kagome?", he whispered once more.






And then she bolted upright.







*****************************************






Kagome had finished saying her wish. And then she had faintly heard Inuyasha say something, no doubt making fun of her little speech, but his voice was blocked out by a humming noise, and the bright pink light.








The light, that was the last thing she saw before she saw nothing. Blackness. She was vaguely aware that she was now on the dew-sodden grass.






Someone was calling her name, it was so queit...at first..







And then someone was saying her name almost a million times louder. And the crickets that she had been unaware of before sounded as if they had formed a colony and gotten a microphone. Somewhere, an owl called out so loudly that she thought her ears would burst. All the noises! It was almost unbearable. At the sound of Inuyasha saying her name again, as if he had a loud speaker and had pressed it against her ear, she sat bolt upright.








*********************************************








"AHH! STOP SCREAMING AT ME, MAKE THE NOISES STOP!!", she screamed, then flinched very visably at her own voice, she grabbed at where her ears SHOULD have been, in hopes of stopping the noise.








"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY EARS ARE GONE! MY EARS ARE GONE!! MAKE THE NOISES STOP!", she screamed again, and then, almost fell down at the sound of her own voice.









Inuyasha watched her, perplexed, then he realized something...that, because of the way she was laying on the ground, he hadn't noticed before... she had dog ears, the wish had worked.








He laughed at her, realizing what must have happened, it was definately going to take her a long time to get used to her much improved hearing.









Kagome had closed her eyes, as if that would help stop all the noises. Then she felt someone grab her hand tentatively.








Inuyasha had taken her hand, he slowly trailed it up to the top of her head.








Kagome felt her arm being lifted to the top of her head, she felt her fingers traveling over her hair, and then she felt Inuyasha let go of her hand, after leaving her own on something soft and fuzzy. Oddly enough, with her hand there, the noise seemed to have diminished somewhat. But what was that on her head..







"OHMIGOD I HAVE DOG EARS!", she yelled out, and then flinched once again at the sound of her voice.








"Ya think?", asked Inuyasha calmly, as he placed her other hand on top of her other ear.







'Thats much better.', thought Kagome, with her hands on both ears. She could still hear everything VERY vividly, but it wasn't ear shattering anymore.







"You have to learn to block it out.", Inuyasha explained.









Kagome was overcome with guilt for EVER yelling at Inuyasha, she had NO idea everything was soo..loud..








"I'm sorry.."







"Sorry?"






"For ever yelling at you..I didn't no it hurt like this."






"Feh, it doesn't, you just have to get used to it, and then it wont hurt at all..Your just so used to your weak human ears...let go of your ears and try to ignore the loudness."







Kagome slowly released her ears. The noise still hurt her head. But she tried her best to ignore it, like Inuyasha had said. Soon, the pain subsided, and, even though she was still more aware of every little noise withing a ten mile radius, it no longer hurt.







With her mind no longer on that, she noticed something else.








"Inuyasha..", she sniffed the air, "You smell good!", she finished, in a somewhat surprised voice.








"Feh, of course I do, wench."








Inuyasha smirked. He was going to enjoy her being a hanyou a lot more than he had expected. He couldn't help but laugh at Kagome's expression of general awe, as she sniffed a few more times.








"Everything smells good!", she exclaimed, in an awe filled voice.








"Feh, just wait till you go visit your old time, you wont think everything smells good there."









Kagome ignored him.







"What color is my hair?", she asked, excited.







"Feh see for yourself, you can see in the dark now, in case you haven't noticed.






"I CAN!", she exclaimed, as she noticed the lack of trouble she was having with seeing her surroundings. Undoing the ponytail her hair had been in, she brought some in front of her face.










"Its the same color as yours!!"








"Of course it is!, all dog youkia have the same color hair."











"Oh, I guess I never noticed."










"feh..", then he noticed something.."actualy, your hair isn't completlely white, you have one black streak in it...I guess its because your not naturaly a youkia..", he reasoned.









Kagome put her hair back into a ponytail.









"Come here..I want to fix something.", Inuyasha stated, as he looked at her hair.











Kagome scooted closer to where Inuyasha was sitting. Inuyasha reached into her hair and pulled out the streak of black, so that it hung down by the side of her face.







Kagome smiled at the gesture.







"You've got fangs too.", acknowledged Inuyasha, after Kagome smiled, bringing her fangs into site.










Kagome ran her tongue across her teeth, to see for her self.








"I DO!"







Inuyasha smirked at her again. Then, he leaned in and kissed the girl turned hanyou. And, it was a kiss that certainly made up lack of passion, feeling, or emotion she had experienced with the last one. It was much longer too.







After finishing with that., Inuyasha looked at Kagome, he seemed somewhat reluctant to say what he was about to.









"Um..Kagome..theres one last thing."







"What?"..she asked suspiciously.








"I have to mark you as my mate."







"Mark me?..how do you do that..", she was almost afraid to ask.






"I've got to bite you."







"BITE ME!"







"Somewhere on the back of your neck by your shoulder."








"BITE ME!?", repeated Kagome.








"It wont hurt..remember, your a hanyou now..you wont feel a thing.."







Kagome gulped..







"Are you sure?"







"I'm sure."








"Alright..", she agreed somewhat reluctantly, as she closed the gap between them.







Inuyasha pulled her around so that her back was facing him. Hesitantly, he pulled down the colar of her Kimono a little.
He sat there a minute. Scared of what he was about to do. He knew it wouldn't hurt her, now that she was a hanyou, but, part of him couldn't help but think of her still as a weak human.







"Just do it, Inuyasha..", Kagome whispered, and was immediatly reminded of a nike commercial, she giggled at that thought, not even noticing that Inuyasha had bit down into her neck untill she felt someone wipe something off of it.







"I'm done..it didn't hurt..did it?"..asked Inuyasha as he wiped away the blood. He was relieved to see that her now hanyou body had already made the wound close over..soon all that would be left was a scar.








"Your done?! I didn't feel anything..", she said as she felt the back of her neck, trying to find where he had bit her.








"But theres nothing there!?"







"Remember, your hanyou, you heal fast."








"Oh.."






"So..that mark makes me your mate..so..im your mate now?", asked Kagome, blushing.







"Yes...you are.." Inuyasha replied, blushing as well.






"So, if I'm hanyou..does that mean I'm as strong as you?", asked Kagome, changing the subject.






"Feh, no one is as strong as me! But you are much stronger than you were..and you have all the abilities a normal hanyou would."







"Good..then theres something I have always wanted to do.."







Before Inuyasha could ask just what that was, Kagome had jumped high into a tree. He quickly followed her. She was perched on the same branch he had been before.






"How do you sleep up here?!", she asked, as she tried to make herself comfortable.









Inuyasha brought himself up to a branch higher than the one she was on, and situated himself against the trunk.










"Come here and I'll show you."







Kagome happily complied. Once up on the same branch, Inuyasha beckoned for her to come closer, and then, blushing, he brought her into his arms. Kagome was at first surprised, but then she lay her hand up against his chest and leaned into him. His arms enclosed her, ensuring her safety.







It wasn't long before she was fast asleep, exhausted from everything she had been through in the past few days. Now, with all her problems solved, she could finaly relax.






Inuyasha could hear her steady breathing. He looked down and saw the top of her head and her dog ears, he almost laughed when he realized something about them that he had not noticed before. The tips of them were black..









He knew that she was asleep, tightening her grip on her, he smiled softly. She was his. He had a mate. He felt almost proud of himself.








"This is how I sleep up here..", he whispered to the sleeping Kagome, grinning. Soon, he too had fallen asleep with his mate.
