* A New Kagome *
* Chapter 2: New Found Powers *
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kaede took a deep breathe. "Kagome had been inflicted with poison. The poison, however, already spread throughout her body. Thus, causing side effects to her weakened body."
"What side effects?!" Inuyasha felt even guiltier than before.
"I'm not so sure mi self, it seems that some of the youkai's blood had gotten into the poison, transfusing the two mixtures." Kaede frowned.
"Inuyasha, was the demon injured before Kagome got hurt?" Miroku asked with sudden worry.
"Hai, Kagome had shot it with an arrow at one of its legs." Inuyasha hung his head low, with bangs covering his eyes.
"Hmmm, that must explain how the demon's blood had gotten into the injury." Sango's face was also filled with worry.
"W-will Kagome be all right then?" Shippo shuddered, thinking of the consequences.
"Ye, child. Kagome will just have some un-suspecting side effects on her. They are not major which is somewhat more fortunate."
The worried faces had turned to being relieved.
"And, Kagome has not any effects yet, but when they do happen, ye need to find a cure for it." Kaede closed her eyes while explaining this.
"Cure for what, won't the side effects be temporary?" The group was confused now.
"Unfortunately, no, they will become permanent, if tis not cured. It's a good thing that ye got her here so quickly. If ye haven't then she would have these effects, everlasting."
"Well, then where will we have to go to recover the cure?" Inuyasha recovered from the shock first.
"Ye, have to go to the northern lands. There is a cure there. It is contained by a rare demon, a serpent. It is rare here, but there is much more there. The snake demons have the venom that will rid of the poison in Kagome's body."
"Why can't we just try to locate a serpent demon here, instead of traveling all the way to the north?" Miroku asked, trying to be calm.
"Serpents here don't have that kind of venom. There are different, depending on the region they are living in." Sango said much to her disappointment.
"How do you know this Sango?"
"Well, I've been sent to kill some demons there, and there happens to be many serpent demons in the north. They are overly larger than the ones here."
"Well, then ye shall take a rest. This talk had lasted long. Tomorrow, Kagome shall be able to wake; she's in a very deep slumber right now." Kaede stood up and ordered Inuyasha and Miroku to gather some firewood while Sango fetched a bucket of water from the well.
~*~*~*~*~
Kagome stirred when the sun was shining brightly in her eyes. She put a hand over her eyes. That's when she saw.. claws?! Kagome sat up and stared at the tips of her hands that were now replaced with claws instead of fingernails. At first she thought she was still asleep and was having a dream, she pinched herself hard and knew it was reality.
Inuyasha suddenly woke up from his sleeping spot in the Goshinkboku and heard a scream. While the others had woken up and heard it too. It was from inside the hut. He rushed there to see what was going on.
"What happened to me?!" Everyone rushed to Kagome's side. They had their mouths open and had very shocked expressions on.
"Is that really you, Kagome?" Sango hesitantly walked over closer to Kagome.
"Of course it's me! Can anybody explain this?" Kagome practically yelled.
"Kagome, y-your hair..it's very different. Did you change it with something?" Shippo pointed to her hair.
"Y-you have ears like me." Inuyasha stared at her, not knowing what to say.
Kagome rushed to a nearby lake to see her reflection. The others rushed behind, not being able to catch up with her speed, all except the hanyou.
She looked into it and saw what she'd never think she would see. There were two triangular animal-like ears protruding from the top of her head.
She placed her hands on top of her head. They were very much like Inuyasha's but, slightly smaller. Her reflection also showed it clear that her hair wasn't black anymore. She had golden, silver, and dark brown hair all mixed together. She also noticed that she could smell mostly everything around her.
Inuyasha thought that Kagome was very, very attractive in her form. He smelt that she still had human blood flowing in her body, and demon blood. This makes her a half-demon, like him. His nose also picked up something very strange. Kagome's scent was...intoxicating, he somewhat liked it.
Kagome and the others went back to the hut and asked Kaede what happened. The rest of the gumi knew that this was the side effect, which was being a hanyou.
"Kaede-sama, can you tell me why I look like this?" Kagome sounded desperate.
"Child, do ye remember that ye had been wounded on ye back?" The old miko's eyes were closed as she was explaining.
Kagome thought back and remembered. "But, then why don't I feel any pain?" Kagome felt around her back, feeling to see where the injury might be.
"Ye, have side effects from the scratch, there was poison and demon blood mixed in it."
Kagome gasped. "Will it be like this forever?" Kagome still couldn't believe what was happening at the very moment. Was she really a hanyou? She didn't even know what to think of it. I mean, it is a pretty interesting event. Not anyone can just turn into a hanyou.
"No, ye have to find a cure first."
"Kagome-sama, we have already known that this kind of thing might happen, Kaede-sama told this to us yesterday while you were still unconscious." Miroku informed her.
"Keh, stop talking about this and let's go start searching for the cure." Inuyasha stepped outside.
"Inuyasha is right, ye have to hurry before it's too late. For Kagome will turn into a full demon if she had been hanyou long enough." Inuyasha had heard Kaede's comment with his twitching ears.
The group nodded and thanked the old woman for her hospitality. They needed to hurry, as quickly as possibly.
They started walking on the trail to the northern regions. Inuyasha and Kagome were ahead of Miroku and Sango. The two smaller demons stay beside the females. Shippo by Kagome, on her shoulder and Kirara with Sango. Kagome could keep up with Inuyasha's fast walking since she had her new demonic powers.
Inuyasha couldn't help but keep stealing glances at Kagome. She was one of a kind. She was quarter neko and quarter inu and half human now. She was amazingly beautiful. When Kagome was human, Inuyasha was attracted to her without himself realizing till later on. Now, Kagome being a hanyou, she was even more attractive than before, she was irresistible. Kagome noticed this by the corner of her eye. And asked, "Is something wrong, Inuyasha, do I look that bad as a hanyou?"
"No, you're just different." Inuyasha answered dumbly.
"If my looks are different, doesn't mean my personality is as different" Kagome cocked her head to try to look into Inuyasha's eyes. She could almost always tell what Inuyasha was thinking every time she had a glance into his eyes. It was like reading a open book.
Inuyasha just looked away, not giving Kagome a chance to see his feelings.
Behind with Miroku and Sango, there had a little conversation of their own.
"Nay Sango, wouldn't you agree that Kagome looks rather stunning, more than before?" Miroku smiled mischievously.
* Bonk *
Miroku rubbed his head. "My, my no need to get jealous. You know that I have my eyes only for you my Sango."
Sango blushed a little, "You shouldn't be thinking of these things when we're in a situation such as this.
The day had passed quickly. Night was settling in. They had settled and camped in a comfy spot in the forest.
"Kagome, let's go to the hot spring!" Sango dragged Kagome to there.
Inuyasha just glared at Miroku, warning him not to go to the springs. He certainly did not want Miroku peeking on Kagome, his Kagome. Hey, where'd that come from? He quickly erased the thoughts.
"Well Inuyasha, what do you think of Kagome in her hanyou form, rather quite astonishing than before?" Miroku smiled his lecherous smile when he's thinking of ecchi things (when does he doesn't?).
Inuyasha just bopped him on the head, not harshly though, but enough to make the monk complain.
"Hey, I was just asking a simple question." Miroku rubbed the spot where Sango and Inuyasha had hit him, in the same exact spot. His luck wasn't with him today. Heck, when did he ever had luck? Women had rejected him everyday, and him receiving some good resounding slaps that could be heard a mile away.
"Inuyasha, did you notice that Kagome has a nicer smelling scent?" Shippo asked innocently.
Inuyasha blushed. "Yea, it might be that because she's a demon now, I guess."
"Well, I've heard from villages that I had traveled through, that female demons have a very strong scent that all males could be attracted to." Miroku answered calmly.
"Ah, it means that you are attracted to Lady Kagome, Inuyasha." Miroku grinned madly like a cat.
"Keh, you said that all males can get attracted to a female's scent."
"You have mistaken me, I must have worded it wrong." Miroku decided to change the truth around, just for a little fun.
Then someone interrupted on what Miroku was about to say.
"Lord Inuyasha, what Miroku said was true, but he said it incorrectly." It was Myouga.
"Well well, Myouga, long time no see, guess you've been keeping away from us, we're not that dangerous" Inuyasha smirked.
Myouga tried to get back their attention to something else. " Miroku meant to say that if a female demon emitts a strong, luring, and pleasant scent, than other male demons are attracted of the female. But, young ones, like Shippo here, can smell it anyway not attracted to it at all."
This time, it was one of those days where Inuyasha had not made a smart reply.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
In the hot springs, Kagome and Sango had been relaxing and chatting.
"How's it like to be a half demon, Kagome?" Sango was curious, after all who wouldn't?
"Well, I have better senses, like a very strong sense of smell, and I ...am stronger, I guess." Kagome didn't really test out what she can do.
"Sango, I was wondering, do I look that bad, I mean Inuyasha was staring at me, and Miroku too." Kagome was completely unaware about her new physical looks. Males are obviously attracted to her.
"Kagome, they were staring at you, because they were attracted to you." Sango was not oblivious to this fact as Kagome is.
"Really? So, I don't have anything wrong with me?" Kagome asked, cocking her head sideways.
"Nope, I'd say you look just fine like that."
"I wonder if I'll ever be cured. What will I tell my family?" Kagome's expression saddened.
"Kagome, don't be so pessimistic, you will get cured no matter what." Sango said reassuringly.
"Thank you Sango, I really appreciate it."
The girls thought that their skin was prune enough, so they got out and dressed quickly and walked back to the camping spot.
"Myouga?" Kagome's nose had worked like a charm.
"Lady Kagome, I heard that you have been poisoned and became a half demon." Myouga jumped from Miroku's to Kagome's shoulder.
"Why yes, do you know anything about the northern lands Myouga? We're heading there for a cure."
"There are many serpent youkais there, which I'm sure you heard. And they are very powerful and are not like the low classed demons that live around here. There are fogs there often. Only demons with their keen senses could really see through it. You have to be very careful. Bid you farewell." Myouga was out of site.
"That stupid flea, he just came back, and left just when there's danger coming ahead." Inuyasha snorted.
After a few moments, sleep overcame most of the group, except Inuyasha. He was awake, keeping watch, and all the while, looking at Kagome's peaceful form with Shippo curled up against her warm body. She looks so beautiful, he thought. He had to admit it, he couldn't deny it any longer.
Inuyasha decided to rest today. He hadn't gone to sleep for a few days now. Naraku is still missing. 'That bastard is still hiding. That coward. Now there's a new mission. While we do this, Naraku is getting stronger each day.'
Inuyasha's eyelids became heavy. He then fell into slumber land.
