Chapter 9: The Story Thus Far

Okay. so far, Kagome has been captured by that slimeball - but my fave character - Sesshoumaru-'sama'. When they were out in the woods, some trolls came and attacked them, although Kagome missed all the action when she passed out. She woke up three days later in a bed in Fluffy's castle. Miraculously, her broken arm and the gash on her forehead are completely healed, and without even a trace of the injuries. The next few days are uneventful, but then she has this dream of Fluffy killing Inu-Yasha. Is it really just a dream? Or is it a premonition? She goes for a walk around the castle and angers the pompous lord when she becomes lost. The next day at breakfast, they have an argument - one which was just waiting to happen - and Kagome locks herself in her room, and escapes (on a rope of blanket, no less). Yet again, much thanks to Koga for saving our Heroine! He takes her back to Inu-yasha's forest where there is a happy reunion and a peaceful interlude to the tumultuous story, but that is short-lived.

Koga goes back to his cave, Inu-Yasha, Kagome, and the rest of the gang go back to Kaede's village, and Fluffy discovers that Kagome has escaped, and that she had help. He follows the scent to Inu-yasha's forest, but unexpectedly, he continues to follow Koga's trail. He arrives at their hidden cave and slaughters the whole clan, both wolves and demons, while Koga is away, then leaves, rather leisurely, to collect Kagome. Koga finds his clan, and although devastated by what he sees runs to warn Kagome and Inu-Yasha of the danger. He arrives there, only to collapse in exhaustion (he's been running at top speed for 24 hours without any breaks) at their feet. When he wakes up, he doesn't have the heart to tell her when he sees her so happy (awww.) and is unable to deliver the important message that he planned to. Not long after, Fluffy arrives, talks to the group, and tells them that he will he back at another time, to kill the hanyou and miko, of course. Inu-Yasha runs to Kagome, who has collapsed on the ground sobbing. Kagome tells Inu-Yasha the next day that she knows that Fluffy will come back on the night of the new moon, the night that he loses his demon powers and becomes a human.

A little later in the day, Sango confronts Kagome about what she and Inu- Yasha are hiding from the group. What she says makes Kagome guilty and she is on the verge of telling Sango about it when Inu-Yasha calls from the forest. She runs to him and find that he is really angry with her. He pins her to the tree. Kagome tries to kick and yell, and twist he way out of his painful grasp, all to no avail, when she remembers the prayer beads around his neck. Yelling 'Osuwari' about five or six times, she runs away. Inu- Yasha wakes up some time later, confused. He has no idea what he did and only remembers when Kagome 'sat' him. He limps back to the village, his every step painful, and enters the hut to find a bow and arrow pointed at his heart, Kagome threatening to kill him.

Okay, so it wasn't the best summary. I know, but see, half-way through, I had this really great idea for the next part of the story and didn't want to put all of my hard work to waste, and so finished the synopsis as quickly as I possibly could so I wouldn't forget. Well, peace out and remember that Mexican jumping beans aren't edible. They have moths inside. (That's what makes them jump.)
