Chapter 2- The Mysterious Acquaintance

Inuyasha kept bounding after the smell of Kagome. Before he resumed his search, he had to go back for the others, who made him allow them to follow. Shippo was gripping to his shoulder wailing for Kagome. "Where is she Inuyasha?" Shippo wailed in his ear. "Holy.." Inuyasha held his words back, "Will you stop crying in my ear!" he rephrased. "Inuyasha, is the smell getting stronger?" Miroku called up to him, while he was holding onto Sango, a little more then necessary, while riding on Kirara. "A little," Inuyasha yelled back to him, while he jumped to the next tree. 'Kagome,' he thought to himself, 'Where did you go woman?! I've had enough of this!'

~`*Flashback*`~
"Inuyasha, I can't believe you!" Kagome yelled as she stomped off towards the well. "What did I do now?" he yelled back at her and jumped to land in front of her. "If you don't know, then why should I tell you? Why do you care anyway?" she stopped walking and stared up into his golden eyes. He wanted to tell her that he hated to see her upset, and that he didn't want her to go, but that's not what came out, "Damn you wench! Can't you tell when I'm trying to be reasonable?!" Her face softened, then became the face she wore out of either anger or jealously, "Do you even know what I'm angry about?" "Well if I did know what I did to make you angry, then I probably wouldn't have done it in the first place!" he replied. Her eyes widened in surprise. Inuyasha noticed this and turned away from her, not wanting her to see his face turning pink. "Inuyasha! Don't turn away from me!" He noticed her voice getting softer and started to turn back around to face her. Before he had completely turned around, Kagome had started to run back towards the well. "Will she ever stop this?" he mumbled to himself. Once again he jumped and landed in front of looking into her wet face. "Go away," she sniffled as she tried to push him aside. "No," he said back to her, not budging an inch. "Go away," she tried again, but with less effort. "No," he replied again. She looked up into his face and wiped some tears away with the back of her hand. "Inuyasha...?" This time Inuyasha pulled her towards him and held onto her, not ever wanting to let go. "I'm sorry," he whispered, low enough that she couldn't hear.

~`*End Flashback



Inuyasha stopped and stood on top of one of the trees. "What is it Inuyasha?" Shippo asked him. Overhead Sango told Kirara to land next to them. "I can hear something, it sounds like..." before he could finish his thoughts, something broke through the top of the trees. "Him," Inuyasha took a big whiff of the new person that just arrived in case he tried to escape. "What do you want?" Sango yelled at him. "Ah my dear Sango stepping up before us men, do not worry my love, I'll protect you," Miroku chimed and stood in front of her. Sango growled and hit him over the head with her boomerang. Inuyasha stifled a laugh and took a step closer to the stranger. "What the hell do you want? Make it quick now, I have other things to do!" Inuyasha snapped. The figure laughed, but not the kind of laugh that they were expecting, it sounded like a laugh of a boy around Kagome's age. "Feisty little doggie I see," he taunted. Inuyasha growled, "Who are you?!" he screamed at him. "Inuyasha calm yourself," Miroku said, while still rubbing his head from where Sango hit him. Sango however looked rather pleased. "Calm myself! Calm myself!! Miroku, Kagome's out there probably in danger somewhere with some demon chasing after her, and you want me to CALM MYSELF?!" Inuyasha snapped. "Well...It would be nice..." Miroku said, while looking up at the night sky as if he was imagining what it would be like. "You have no need to worry about the lovely priestess," the silhouette spoke, and took a step closer into the light the moon shed. "What do you mean?" Sango questioned. Shippo gasped, "You know where Kagome is?! Whoopee!" Shippo sailed off of Inuyasha's shoulder towards the stranger. "Shippo, No!" Inuyasha yelled and tried to grab his tail. He missed and Shippo kept on sailing. Until he was an arms length away from the human...thing...person... he swatted him away as if he was a fly. Shippo landed a couple feet away unconsciousness. Inuyasha glared over at the small fox youkai. "What have you done with Kagome!" he directed his talk to the man, "And who the hell are you!" "So many questions, so little time," he mocked, and took another step towards the light. "Show yourself!" Miroku spoke and stood. The mysterious person walked into the light to reveal himself. Inuyasha glared, getting the feeling that he'd seen someone like that before, and he knew that he did not like him one bit.
