Going Under
Which One?
I clutched the small pouch in my hand. Kagome had fused a Shikon shard within my heart. It helped-it would keep me alive for now.
I felt Kouga shift suddenly and heard myself cry out in pain.
"You alright?" I heard his voice. I never noticed how deep it could be at times. He seemed to worry it-made me feel guilty. I opened my eyes nodding my head against his shoulder as I glanced around.
"I still don't see why we can't just kill her, she's caused enough trouble," I heard Inuyasha growl out. I felt tears come but they left as Kouga let out a growl that made me shiver. It was more like a snarl. I glanced at Kouga's face. The side of it was still slightly swollen and red. Dried blood still edged the tip of his mouth.
Inuyasha had not forgotten Kouga's mistake in hitting Kagome. It wasn't his fault-he wasn't thinking straight. His chest armor was cracked from a blow to the stomach that had him down for half an hour and his legs were limping lightly. Yet he STILL insisted on carrying me. Though I couldn't argue much, even if I was feeling better I still couldn't move. And rough abuse to my body was painful. If I was jostled it felt like I was being ripped apart.
I heard them gasp out in surprise as something passed us. I felt my eyes black out and closed them hoping I wouldn't pass out. I moved my arms around Kouga neck letting out a soft whine as a pain gently throbbed in my chest. I heard talking but was to pained to understand them. I felt Kouga growling and sensed jealousy. I opened my eyes seeing a glimpse of Sesshomaru before I passed out.

I felt warm. I know, it sounds stupid-but something around me was unusually warm. I was about to turn over but something pulled me back.
"If you roll you'll fall off." I jumped up at the voice.
"Sesshomaru?" I called out trying to peer into the darkness. I saw his golden eyes and a soft glint from his silver hair. It was almost scary; his amber eyes were only intensified at night. They seemed more golden while the rest of him was dark.
I felt the thing around me shift again and looked to find his tail wrapped around me. In a flash of memory I remembered my broken heart. I reached inside the pouch to find nothing.
"I healed you. I do not know how Naraku took control of you a second time but I suspect it has something to do with that white demon of nihility. After I used Tenseiga, you started to grow cold. The wolf told me to keep you warm so I merely followed his wishes."
His wishes? "But-I thought you didn't follow requests from anyone."
"Are you not in love with him?" his voice was more fact than question. I blushed feeling my cheeks warm up. But now, I didn't know. Kouga had gone farther with me, but Sesshomaru had made me feel the same way.
"I don't know," my mind spoke out. I guess Sesshomaru saw the confusion on my face because he didn't ask any further. A long silence followed.
"What did you do with the shard?" I asked suddenly.
"I gave it to the miko," he answered me plainly. I wasn't sure what do to next, I guess my mind was still foggy. I couldn't think straight.
"And what of Kouga?"
"Right here."
My head spun to the side and spotted a soft brown hue in a corner. After straining my eyes I made out his figure sitting cross legged against the wall staring out the window. Great, both of them are in here. I turned my head from Sesshomaru who was sitting on the edge of the futon with one knee supporting his arm which was lain across it. I turned again to Kouga. His emotions stuck out plainly on his features. He'd spent too much time around Kagome; he was loosing control of his emotions. Sesshomaru's face was cold, emotionless, and handsome.
Kouga, on the other hand-you could see his strength. His face was keen and sharp. Strong and fierce. One glance and you'd know his physical strength. But-he wasn't exactly strong. He didn't have any real demonic abilities. Sesshomaru had his light whip and poisonous claws, along with a transformation. Kouga, all he could really do was throw a punch. That, and run real fast, but he uses those shards-it's not his real speed.
Kouga stood and walked to the window. He breathed in heavily and let the air out slowly through his nose. I could see the emotion flaring in his eyes. They shimmered as he quickly blinked.
"Kouga?" I called out feeling a wave of guilt wash over me. "Kouga, I'm sorry."
I felt Sesshomaru's gaze fall upon me. "Why are you sorry to him?" he asked coldly. I bit my lip cursing under my breathe as tears welled up.
"When Naraku took control over me, he made me kill the last of Kouga's kin. He is the last western wolf demon for the moment."
Sesshomaru stood and knelt in front of me. He raised his hand wiping the tear falling down my cheek. "Do you wish them to live?" I nodded letting my gaze drop to my lap. "Yes."
Sesshomaru stood placing a kiss against my forehead in the process. I knew I was blushing badly. "Then I shall bring them back," he said grabbing the hilt of Tenseiga and walking out. Kouga turned around walking after him. I could here them discussing something along the way. I looked up snapping from my shock as Inuyasha entered.
"So...which one?" he said. I could tell he was trying his best not to smirk.
But...he was right. Which one? I know now, I love both of them. Shit, this is weird. What the hell am I supposed to do now?
