'She's so cute when she sleeps.' Inuyasha smiled, his ears flicking this
way and that. 'Damn spell, I forgot to get that charm from Kaede, these
things have caused too much hurt for their own good.'
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked groggily. "Are you awake?"
"Nope, I'm dead to the world." He said sarcastically.
"Oh, good." Kagome said as she rubbed her eyes. "What's for breakfast?"
"Food." Inuyasha stated.
"Could you be less specific?" Kagome asked overly excited.
"Well, it's a solid, that's edible." Inuyasha replied helpfully, as he got up and stretched.
"Cute ears." Kagome smiled. "It's nice to see them without a spell on them."
Inuyasha looked at her, shocked. "You could see them before?"
Kagome shrugged. "It's like this family trait, all the women can see through most spells."
"Why didn't you say anything?" Inuyasha asked her.
"I didn't think it was important, and you didn't ask." Kagome smiled mischievously.
The bushes around them started to move and rustle. Inuyasha loosened his sword from it's sheath. "Who's there?"
Kagome grabbed a large stone and hurdled it into the bushes. A boy fell out of the bushes. "Ouch!"
"Who are you?" Inuyasha asked suspiciously.
"I," the boy said as he stood and dusted himself off. "Am Miroku, the traveling monk."
Inuyasha sniffed the air. "Are you alone?"
Miroku nodded as he turned his attention to Kagome. "Hello, young miss!"
Inuyasha moved so he was between Kagome and Miroku. "Touch her and you die."
Kagome got up and walked around Inuyasha. "Come on, he's a monk. What could happen?"
Miroku bowed deeply. "Miss, I was wondering if you would help me with my problem."
Kagome looked at him quizzically, as Inuyasha frowned on the whole situation. "What is your problem?"
"I am going to ask you a very important question." Miroku began. "Will you.Will you bear my child?"
Kagome's face went from curious to horror struck in 2 seconds flat. Inuyasha laughed and fell to the ground, from laughing so hard.
"Your answer.miss?" Miroku asked.
"Um.no.?" Kagome said quietly.
Inuyasha still laughing laughed even harder. Kagome glared at him, and then kicked the nearest part of him, his leg. Then he started to laugh and moan at the same time. "Ouch.!"
"Serves you right!" Kagome glared.
Miroku's face fell, he'd been turned down again. "Miss, if you won't help me then may I join you on what ever quests you may follow?"
Inuyasha stopped laughing, he looked at Kagome's puppy dog face. "NO."
"Please!!" Kagome begged, dropping to her knees. Kagome launched herself at Inuyasha and latched on to his ears. "Preetttyyy plleeeeaaassseeee???"
"GET OFF!!" Inuyasha growled.
"Make me!!" Kagome laughed as she rubbed his ears.
Miroku chuckled as he watched the two fight. "I'm sorry I asked, I didn't realize you had other commitments!"
Kagome stopped, still not releasing her hold on Inuyasha's ears. "What?"
"I'm sorry I asked you to bear my child when you have other such obvious commitments!" Miroku repeated.
Kagome lunged at Miroku's neck, Inuyasha grabbed her just before she'd gotten to far.
"You die now, monk." Kagome growled, her fingers itching to get around Miroku's neck.
"Look, Kagome!" Inuyasha said, as he twitched his ears. "My ears, the cute, little ears they miss you." *twitch* *twitch* *twitch*
Kagome turned slightly, and upon seeing the cute ears, squealed and latched onto them. Inuyasha grimaced as Kagome 'scratched' his ears. 'That monk owes me.'
"Fine, monk, you can stay." Inuyasha's muffled voice said from under Kagome.
"YAY!!" Kagome yelled, jumping off Inuyasha, running to hug the monk. "You can stay!"
"Thank you, miss." Miroku said, as Kagome threw her arms around him.
Suddenly, Kagome's eye started to twitch. (AN: Two guess' as to what happens.) "HENTAI!!!!" Kagome screamed as she slapped Miroku.
"Sorry, my hands have a mind of their own." Miroku pleaded.
Kagome glared and went to pack up and leave. Inuyasha followed, laughing.
"Come on, you can walk now that we're in the forest." Inuyasha said after they'd packed up.
"There is a village, not far from here." Miroku said as he walked along, his staff jingling a merry tune.
"We could stop there if for a while, we're in no hurry." Inuyasha sighed.
Kagome moved to the side of the path, farthest away from Miroku. Inuyasha noticed and smiled. 'She's so cute. Nice body, cute smile, and.THOSE ARE NOT MY THOUGHTS!!!!' Inuyasha blushed.
Miroku noticed the blush and smiled. 'He's so stupid. And she's kinda dense, they don't realize it do they? No.'
Kagome was totally not noticing the whole situation, she was thinking about what Inuyasha had said. 'You'll understand in a soon, enough. What does that mean, anyway?'
"Hey, Monk!" Inuyasha said. "What's then name of this village?"
Miroku rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "I believe it is called Tsukan, or something like that."
Inuyasha stopped, and looked at Miroku. "Is it beside the wolf river?
Miroku nodded. "Have you been there before or something?" Inuyasha shook his head and walked on, a small growl growing in his throat. Kagome looked curiously at him. 'Wonder what his problem is?'.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Inuyasha said, looking away.
Miroku rolled his eyes and followed Kagome and Inuyasha. "Look you can hear the river from here, not far now!"
"Great!" Inuyasha growled. "Just great."
"What's so great?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha sighed and quickened his pace, walking by a small group of village girls, who whispered something as he passed. Inuyasha turned at growled at them, they screamed and jumped back.
"What's his problem?" Kagome asked Miroku.
"It would seem that Inuyasha has had previous problems with this village." Miroku replied, turning his attention to the village girls.
"Why, hello ladies!" Miroku smiled.
The girls looked at him with disgust. "Do you KNOW him?"
Miroku bowed. "Inuyasha is an acquaintance of mine."
"So you know him?" one of the girls asked Miroku.
"Yes, you could say that, I had the fortune to meet Kagome and Inuyasha on their travels." Miroku said, raising his eye brow. "I take it your not fond of Inuyasha."
"NO!" The girls said as they turned and headed towards the village. "Nor are we of people who no that stupid Half breed."
Miroku was taken back by this remark. 'Now I see why Inuyasha doesn't like this village. He seems to have some history with them.'
Kagome had finally caught up to Inuyasha when they were met by a large group of people. They all looked very pissed and angry.
"HEY! Half-breed! I THOUGHT WE TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM OUR VILLAGE!!" A man in the front of the mob yelled. Inuyasha growled at him and was about to charge at them, when Kagome grabbed his hand.
"Don't, please Inuyasha." Kagome said softly.
"YEAH!! YOU LISTEN TO YOUR BED MATE!! THE BITCH SHE IS!!" A woman this time yelled.
Kagome looked horrified, she'd obviously had never been at the receiving end of the mobs. Inuyasha looked at the mob and then at Kagome, he sighed and glared back at the villagers.
"Why is it that I listen to you, Kagome, I may never know." Inuyasha smiled meekly.
Kagome smiled back. "It's because I'm so persuasive!"
Inuyasha laughed. "You persuasive??? HA!! THAT'S A JOKE!!"
Kagome looked at the mob and back at Inuyasha, Then back at the mob again. "I may want to change my mind about letting them anile late you."
Inuyasha stopped laughing and jumped over the mob, leaving Kagome to contemplate ways of hurting him, also leaving the angry mob to hurt Kagome. Inuyasha ran to a small hut, he laughed at the mob as he walked in.
"HEY! Old Hag!" Inuyasha called. "You here??"
"My name, Inuyasha, is Kikyo!" an old woman scolded him. "And back in my day I was quite a looker, you even fell for me, little hanyou boy."
Inuyasha frowned at her, he remembered her as a young woman who'd given him shelter but that was it. "What are you babbling about, old hag?"
Kikyo rolled her eyes and walked towards the back of the small hut. "Your friend may be having some problems with that mob outside."
Inuyasha suddenly remembered Kagome with the mob. "AW! SHIT!!"
Inuyasha rushed out of the hut to find the mob had dispersed to a small group of men, who had crowded around in a tight nit group. Miroku was running towards them.
"INUYASHA!!!! HEL-" Kagome called franticly as her voice was cut off.
Inuyasha suddenly went into overdrive. 'I'm supposed to PROTECT HER!! Not leave her in the middle of danger!' He thought as he ran towards the group. His only other thoughts were about saving Kagome. 'Kagome, be alright! Please, be alright!' he thought as he punched various men out of the way. Kagome soon came into view, her Kimono ripped in and torn. Upon seeing this Inuyasha was fuelled to go faster.
"KAGOME!!" Inuyasha said as he rushed to her side. (AN: AWW!! HOW CUTE!!) "I'm sooo sorry!"
Kagome looked scared out of her wits. 'Just like when I first saw her.' Inuyasha pulled Kagome into am embrace, he wrapped his arms around her pulling her close.
"I was so scared.they.they jumped on me and held me down, I couldn't stop them.they kicked me and hit me with rocks. " Kagome sobbed into Inuyasha's shoulder. "I couldn't see anything but their face; they were smiling as they tore at my clothes, trying to get them off!"
"I won't ever let anyone ever do this to you, again, Kagome. I promise." Inuyasha whispered to her. "I won't let you out of my sight again!"
"So, am I interrupting anything?" Miroku asked cheerfully.
Inuyasha looked up at Miroku, glaring. "Yeah, ya are, nit wit! Now make yourself use full and help me beat every man and woman in this damn village to a living PULP!!!"
"I met a nice woman, named Sango, she slapped me. It was nice." Miroku said from his own little world. "I groped her butt. She didn't slap me half as many times as the other woman, I think she likes me."
Inuyasha looked at Miroku disgustedly. "Are listening to anything I'm saying to you??? KAGOME WAS ALMOST RAPED AND YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT GROPING SOME WOMAN?!?!?!?!"
Miroku snapped back to earth as Inuyasha yelled at him, his face serious. "YOU RAPED KAGOME???"
Inuyasha rolled his eyes and picked Kagome up. "Monk, you are completely pointless."
Miroku followed Inuyasha. "You raped her didn't you??"
Inuyasha ignored Miroku as he rushed Kagome to Kikyo's hut. He felt blood trickle across his hands, Kagome's breath was shallow and weak. Inuyasha broke into a run.
"Don't die Kagome; I didn't commit myself to your life, to have you die at the hands of some villagers hands. You can't die, please live, so you can see your father defeated and so.so I can fall in love with you.." Inuyasha said softly.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked groggily. "Are you awake?"
"Nope, I'm dead to the world." He said sarcastically.
"Oh, good." Kagome said as she rubbed her eyes. "What's for breakfast?"
"Food." Inuyasha stated.
