Chapter 2: Inuyasha's Stupidity and Kouga's Intelligent Save

//"I have a niece?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome hit him on the head. //

"We don't know where she is Sesshoumaru, but we'll help find her for you." Kagome said.

"What do you mean, we?" Inuyasha yelled at her. "I don't why you even brought him here! I told you to just let the jerk die!"

"Inuyasha, sit." Kagome turned to the dirt eating Inu youkai. "How could you leave your own flesh and blood you stupid.stupid MUTT!" She screamed at him. Inuyasha looked up at her. Of all things to call him, why'd it have to be that? She seemed to realize what she said.

"Oh.Inuyasha? I-" Inuyasha cut her off.

"Save it bitch! I knew you liked that stupid wimpy wolf from the beginning! If that's how you think of me, then just leave! We don't need you!" He yelled at her. Kagome fumed.

"You can't do anything with out me!" She yelled.

"Watch me!" He yelled, getting in her face.

"GET OUT OF MY FACE!" Kagome yelled. Both of their faces were turning red with anger.

"SHUT UP WITCH!" He yelled. Sesshoumaru curled into a ball on the ground. Gesshoku looked at him.

"Are they always like this?" She whispered to him. He moaned and turned over. A puddle of blood covered the ground where he had moved.

"You're bleeding. Don't worry-I'll try to make it stop." She whispered some more, but Sesshoumaru had already drifted into an uneasy sleep. Gesshoku started her work while the two "lovers" kept on bickering. Shippo cowered in fear. He had never scene them act this badly before. He turned to look for Miroku and Sango to find that they were leaving. He ran up just in time to jump on Kirara.

"Where are we going?" Shippo asked Miroku.

"Just some place far away so those two can calm down." Sango sighed and leaned back onto Miroku's shoulder. Shippo looked at Miroku's spine shivering smile. Suddenly Sango sat up. Miroku's hand rubbed her butt. She turned to face them and Shippo let out a shriek of fear.

"HOUSHI SAMA!" *POW Gesshoku stopped her work for a moment.

"Did you hear that?" She whispered to Sesshoumaru. "It sounded like a real hard slap."

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled, interrupting Gesshoku from her thoughts.

"WHY SHOULD I LEAVE YOU ALONE? STUPID PRICK! KIKYO'S MUCH BETTER THAN YOU!" Inuyasha stopped in mid sentence. Kagome turned to face him.

"Well, in case you haven't noticed, SHE'S DEAD AND EATING SOULS TO SURVIVE! She's- she's just a dead BITCH!" Gesshoku stood up and walked over to Inuyasha, trying to calm them both down, but that was the last straw for Inuyasha. He stepped forward and slapped Kagome. She was flung backwards down by where Sesshoumaru was.

"Don't you talk that way about Kikyo!" Kagome clutched her cheek. She turned back to Inuyasha.

"How could I ever have loved you? You are an ungrateful beast! Go to hell and be with your Kikyo! You.you are a MUTT! JUST DIE FOR ALL I CARE!" Inuyasha turned and leapt off into the forest. Kagome turned and sank to her knees, clutching her cheek. A bruise was beginning to swell up. It hurt so badly.

"Are you okay?" Gesshoku asked, coming down next to her.

"Why don't you go with your mutt boy?" She yelled at Gesshoku. She cringed.

"My mutt boy isn't the one that ran away with my heart. He was the person that I believe you can change him into." Kagome cried, and turned to look around for her best friend.

"Sango?" She asked. "Miroku Sama? Where did everyone go?"

"They left when you guys were arguing."

"TRAITORS!" Kagome screamed before curling up and crying herself to sleep. Sesshoumaru who was now awake and feeling much better looked at her with softness. His brother was very cruel to this young woman. Gesshoku sighed and pulled Kagome's sleeping bag around the said person's shoulders. Gently raising Kagome's head, Gesshoku placed a pillow underneath it. It was then Gesshoku looked up at the stars.

"Gengetsu." She said, eyeing the moon. "Gengetsu.cresant moon?" She turned to stare at Sesshoumaru's forehead.

"Perfect." Gesshoku said. Sesshoumaru regarded her. Even though he felt better, he still couldn't move. Gesshoku knelled down next to him.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt, but it will feel weird." She raised her hands to the moon and a beautiful beam of light came from it. She reflected it onto Sesshoumaru's forehead. He was of course, shocked but then a warmth ness filled his fingertips. It spread through his whole body and he realized that he could move. Gesshoku started to shudder. The moonlight vanished and Sesshoumaru sat up. Gesshoku fell on the ground. Her strength was drained. She sighed and looked up at Sesshoumaru.

"I can't go after the one who took your daughter. I am not fast enough to deal with his speed. But now I have transferred some of my own power unto you, you can track him down. The path to him will only be visible during a moon night. When moonlight touches Naraku's evil energy, it will glow white. You can find the path now if you like, but the path will fade shortly, as there are clouds coming tonight." She looked north of the moon. Ominous black clouds were already drifting over it. Sesshoumaru just moved to a different tree trunk and leaned against it to sleep. Gesshoku, powerless, was left to sleep as she was. All she could manage to do was close her eyes before sleep took her.

It was morning, but sunlight wasn't hitting her face. Still weakened by last night's troubles, she awkwardly sat up and opened her eyes. She was sleeping under a tree, a couple ones away from where Sesshoumaru had been sleeping. Gesshoku spied him sitting up in the branches.

"Did you.?" She asked. Sesshoumaru looked down at her and glared. She turned away from him and crawled to where Kagome had started breakfast.

"What is that?" Gesshoku asked curiously. "It's called cereal. This is and ice pack that's helped keep the milk cold. Although it's getting onto winter here, so I doubt that I'll be needing it any more." Gesshoku nodded.

"They're coming." Sesshoumaru suddenly said.

"Huh?" Kagome and Gesshoku asked in unison. It was then Kirara flew over the trees and landed on the ground in front of them. Sango jumped off.

"Whose idea was it to leave?" Gesshoku asked. Miroku smiled and said, "Well, when the going gets rough, we need to get a going now don't we?" Gesshoku stood up and walked over to him, hitting him across the cheek.

"How dare you just get up and leave! Leave us with that...that abusive and cruel mutt!" Gesshoku yelled at him.

"What happened? Where is Inuyasha?" Sango asked. Gesshoku turned to Sango.

"That dog hit her! Look at her face!" Sango ran over to Kagome, followed by Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara.

They all crouched down and Sango lifted up her friend's quavering chin.

"Inuyasha did this?" Miroku asked. Shippo started crying. Kagome's cheek had swelled during the night.

"I-I didn't mean to call Kikyo a bitch, I really didn't. It just came out of my mouth before I thought about it." Kagome said, starting to cry again.

"I'm going to hunt him down." Sango said.

"Me too." Miroku flowed her to Kirara and jumped behind Sango.

"Do you like this position?" He asked her.

*WAP They had all eaten. To Kagome's surprise, Gesshoku went under Sesshoumaru's tree.

"Would you like something to eat?" Gesshoku asked him. He looked away.

"I know your hungry. Your body's food and nutrition's where emptied from last night. You need something to settle your stomach. Come down." To Kagome's surprise, he did. But the surprise didn't last very long. Sesshoumaru grabbed Gesshoku by her neck and lifted her off the ground, which wasn't very hard to do, seeing how she in shape.

"Your pathetic human food can not fulfill my needs, human." Suddenly Kagome groaned. Sesshoumaru and Gesshoku looked over at her and she ran behind them. Sesshoumaru dropped Gesshoku and turned his attention to Kagome.

"What are you doing wench?" Kagome glared at him.

"Hiding, what else?"

"Hiding? From what?" Gesshoku gasped as a greenish blue tornado appeared and a handsome wolf youkai skidded top a halt, carrying something on his back.

"Kagome!" Kouga called. "I knew I-" Kouga stopped when he saw Sesshoumaru. He sniffed Sesshoumaru's scent.

"So you're the one." He said to Sesshoumaru. He took the bundle of blankets from his back and unwrapped one corner. Rin lay inside sleeping.

"That Kagura witch was carrying her away when I attacked and the smell was familiar to dog turd's. But, as I can see, it was a slightly different smell. Kouga handed the sleeping Rin over to Sesshoumaru, which he gladly accepted.

"Kagome," Kouga said, "I want you to be my woman now. Please stop tagging along with that stupid Inuyasha." Kagome cringed.

"I don't ever want to here that stupid mutt's name again!" Kagome yelled at Kouga. He blinked. When he finally recognized her face, he started yelling as well.

"What happened to your face? Did that stupid dog turd do this to you? Where is he?" Kouga looked around threatingly. Then he saw Gesshoku.

"Who are you?" Kouga asked. Gesshoku looked curiously at Kagome.

"My name is Gesshoku. Thank you for returning Rin to her father." Kouga cocked his head curiously.

"Are you the mother?" Gesshoku's eyes widened.

"WHAT?" She asked. "Do I look that old?" She put each hand to her cheeks, checking for wrinkles and / or hanging skin.

"No, you look Kagome's age. I asked that because your smell is intermingled with his." Kouga nodded to Sesshoumaru. Kagome stood behind Kouga now.

"You slept with him last night?" Kagome asked. Gesshoku froze. Her face was really red.

"No I did not SLEEP with HIM last night. I healed his battered body with my own strength. That's all." She added, seeing Kagome's eyebrows going up and down. The answer suited Kouga though. He turned back to Kagome.

"Please be safe while I go and hunt down Inuyasha." He held her hands. "When I return, I promise I will make you happy some way." He turned to go when Sesshoumaru stopped him.

"How can I repay you for the safe return of my daughter?" Kouga thought a moment.

"Can you watch over Kagome and her two friends, Gesshoku and that kid, Shippo, until I return?" Kouga asked. Sesshoumaru didn't want to do such a thing, but it was the least he could do for his daughter's safe return to him. Sesshoumaru nodded.

"You have my word." Kouga sped off but not before calling to Kagome, "By woman!" Sesshoumaru turned to Kagome, Gesshoku, and Shippo. They all looked at him. Gesshoku spoke first.

"Well, I know you are still hungry. We have to get you something to eat." She walked away into the forest.

"I'll be back in about 10 minutes. By!" She disappeared into the dense jungle. Ten minutes came and gone, but Gesshoku still hadn't returned.

"Sesshoumaru, it's been over a half an hour. We should go look for her." Kagome stood and called the now playing Rin and Shippo over. Sesshoumaru stood and walked into the forest. Kagome and the rest quickly followed.

They had been walking not five minutes when they heard an all to familiar yell.

"Somebody help me! Tasu kete!"
