Ch. 5 Meeting Naraku
"Hey Hojo!" Kouga yelled from five feet away "You race is about to start" he pointed to the track thingy they had just set up.
"Thanks" Kouga Hojo smiled naively and ran off just as Kouga reached us.
"Sorry" I smiled.
"Huh?" Kouga asked.
"You know, about the party, I hoped Sango hadn't killed you, but since you're here I guess I had nothing to worry about" He shot me a guilty look.
"Uh no I should kinda be sorry" he looked down as he shuffled his feet. "Uh I should have told ya the punch was spiked, but I guess I thought you knew" He looked at me with puppy dog eyes.
"Oh it's no big deal" I bit my lip.
We began to walk around and look at the little race things the school was having, and then a dark haired guy walked up to us and instantly I saw Kouga step in front of me.
"Shove off Naraku, can't you see when your not wanted" The guy, Naraku, smiled slyly.
" Calm down, Kouga. I wasn't hear to see you," he gave Kouga a superior look "I just want to ask the beauty who is unfortunately in your company something" He took a step forward, but Kouga didn't budge. Oh no there better not be a fight, Sango would have a heyday if that happened.
I stepped out from behind Kouga "It's ok Kouga" I smiled at him "it's no big deal" Kouga looked crestfallen.
I walked over to Naraku, there was something about him that made me feel uneasy. "Hi I'm Naraku" he kissed my hand, that's a first, I stepped back. He smiled,
"You are Kagome, right?" I nodded "Yes the rumors are true you are more beautiful than Kikyo", I blushed, at least somebody thought I was (stupid Inuyasha). "Would you care to accompany me?" He asked and before I had a chance to reply he took my hand and began to take me somewhere, I looked over at Kouga who was standing there angrily with clenched fists. I did not want to go but they way Naraku was looking at me it looked as if I didn't have much of a choice.
I looked around, Naraku was leading me away from the rest of the picnic. "uh Naraku where are we going?" I asked, ok now I was getting worried.
He ignored me but his grip on my hand tightened. How do I get myself into these situations I wondered.
"Hey Naraku!" I heard a familiar voice yell angrily "Get the hell away from her!" Naraku's grip on my hand loosened but still held firmly.
" Well hello Inuyasha" He smiled, and finally let go of my hand. I rubbed it trying to get the circulation to flow back into it.
"Kagome" Inuyasha looked at me pleadingly "Let's go", but as I moved to follow him Naraku grabbed my shoulder " Kagome, I hope to see you soon" he sneered at Inuyasha "without distractions" he let go of me, and I walked over to Inuyasha who looked fairly annoyed.
"Why were you hanging out with that loser?" His voice had the slightest bit of jealousy to it.
I smiled slyly "Loser?" I asked, "I thought he was kind of cute" I stared at Inuyasha waiting for his reaction, it came.
"Wh-what!" He looked dumfounded "You like that bastard?" I nearly broke out laughing.
"I'm joking" I smiled, I changed my expression to the most serious I could get it "What jealous?" I asked.
"course not" he huffed, than he looked over at me with a concerned expression "it's just that" he sighed "He's not the type of guy you'd want to hang around with" he looked down for a second " he's known for uh how can I put this, having his way with women" he looked at me questioningly to see if I got the message, I did.
"You mean?" I asked and he nodded. "Then well thanks" I frowned, so Naraku gave me a creepy feeling for a good reason.
We walked back over to the blankets together and I sat back down with Sango, relieved to see Kikyo was nowhere in sight.
Sango looked at me "What happened?" She gestured at Inuyasha who had been looking at us before Sango had pointed him out.
"Uh I met Naraku" I tried to sum it up without giving any details.
"Oh" she smiled and looked over at Inuyasha, she sat up "was he jealous?" I blushed and shrugged my shoulders. "I'll take that as a yes" I had the bad feeling Inuyasha could hear what we were saying (he couldn't hear that well could he?) because after that, he didn't look over at us.
"Where's Miroku?" I asked, not knowing exactly where he was made me a little nervous.
"Don't know" Sango shrugged "What? You miss him?" before I had a chance to respond, Sango yelled out "Hey Inuyasha! You better watch out! Miroku may be moving in on Kagome!" This not only got Inuyasha's attention but just about everyone else's in an fifty mile radius. I shot Sango a look that could kill. Inuyasha stood up highly annoyed.
"If Kagome wants that lecher let her have him" he yelled. Trust me I had not expected that. So I just sat there stunned while Sango was laughing her head off. Oh one other thing Sango's outburst caused, while I was sitting there too shocked to move, Miroku (who had heard the whole thing) came back over and put his arm around me again. When I finally noticed I snapped back into reality long enough to slap upside the head.
Miroku sat up and rubbed his head "But I thought you liked me" he asked, giving me a puppy dog face, this earned him another punch. He grunted and got back up again, smiling at me "man love hurts" he jump out of my reach just as I took a swing at him. I think he was a little bit scared now because he did not return to his spot by me and instead went back over to Inuyasha.
The sun was beginning to set and according to Sango there would be fireworks, which I kind of wanted to see, (so what if I am a little bit childish, I always have loved fireworks).
By now it was dark out and Sango and I (with a little help from Shippou) had eaten all of our food. " The fireworks should be-" she was cut off by a huge explosion of gold lights in the sky. The fireworks went on for about fifteen minute and during this time I was quit content to look up and watch the glittering flashes flit across the sky.
When we finally went home I was happy to leave, it had been fun (ok, not really but it had been bearable), but I couldn't wait to get home and sleep. I have a one-track mind don't?
'Oh wait I never did get to meet Inuyasha's half-brother' I thought as I settled my self into bed.
"Rinnnnnnnnnnng...Rinnnnnnnnnnng" I look at my alarm clock it was two in the morning "Rinnnnnnnnnnng" the sound came again and I realized that it was coming from the phone, I reached over a grabbed it before it got a chance to ring again "Hello?" I asked.
Author's Notes sorry once again for the cliffhanger but I couldn't resist. (Bet ya can't guess who it is) If you see a misspelling of a characters name please tell me otherwise I'll just keep writing it that way till someone sends me a review telling me that I'm an idiot. Ok thanks bye.
P.S. sorry for the short chapter but a new one will be up soon.
