Chapter 3 – Kihana's secret and Inuyasha's newfound crush
After the light had gone away, Kihana had been replaced with a female hanyou. The girl had soft, dark blue hair and ocean blue-green eyes that shimmered like the ocean itself. She also had a gray wolf tail and wolf ears. Then he noticed the mark of the northern star on her forehead, the mark was also stitched onto the sleeves of her kimono.
"You're a half-demon?" Inuyasha asked, confused. "Yes. I can't remember that well, but I remember someone casting a spell on me. So, I guess that spell made me a human by day and a half-demon by night" Kihana answered. She sat down next to Inuyasha again. "Why didn't you tell us?" he asked, "Well... it's kinda hard to find friends when everyone knows your part demon" she said playing with her hair. "It's also hard to find friends when you do not tell the truth, child," a familiar voice said as Kaede walked over to the two half-demons. "I guess you're right Kaede," Kihana said looking at the priestess. "Do not guess, child. For it will get you nowhere," she said, "Now, I must go back to the others and get some rest. I suggest both of you should get some rest too. You don't want to be tired when you're traveling."
"Travel?" Kihana said with a confused face on. "Yeah, Kagome'll probably make you come with us to search for the jewel shards," Inuyasha explained. "Jewel shards?" she said, still confused. "We are searching for the shards of the Shikon Jewel so that no other demon can use them," he continued. "Oh," Kihana simply said, "Here, this is what they look like," Inuyasha said as he lifted a jewel shard from his shirt. "Wow, it's beautiful" Kihana said looking at the shard sparkle in the moonlight. "Yeah, but it's not all beauty you know. Its power is awesome!" Inuyasha said as he got up and made his hand into a fist. 'He's smiling. I've never seen him smile before' Kihana thought looking up at the hanyou who was smiling and staring off into the sky.
Inuyasha looked down at the girl and cocked his head to one side. "What's your name?" he asked. "My name is Kihana. Why? Did you forget?" she asked, "No, not that name your real name," Inuyasha said sitting back down and looking at the girl. 'He – he knows Kihana is not my real name?' "My, my real name?" she asked; Inuyasha nodded, "Did I stutter?". "No... Well, it's Minako." Inuyasha's eyes widened, "No way. You're Minako?" he asked; Kihana nodded. "You look... different" Inuyasha said as he looked Kihana over. "You have to promise never to tell anyone!" Kihana begged, "Uh... OK" Inuyasha said confused. "How come you look as old as I am?" he asked, remembering that Minako was only 6 when he had been pinned to the sacred tree.
"Well... I don't know who did it, but someone put a spell on me so that I would age faster while I slept for 50 years. So now I've aged so fast that I am as old as you are," Kihana explained. "K," Inuyasha said as he laid down on the stones that made up the pathway. Kihana looked at him and smiled softly, and then she absentmindedly started stroking Inuyasha's hair. Inuyasha, of course, cut Kihana's arm with his claws. Kihana winced in pain and grasped her arm. Inuyasha looked at what he did and ripped off a piece of his sleeve. "Here. I'm sorry for cutting you. It was sort of like a reflex," he said guiltily as he tied the piece of cloth around Kihana's arm. "No. Don't be sorry it's my fault for touching your hair like that. I didn't realize what I was doing," she said apologetically as her face got more red by the second. Inuyasha looked up at Kihana after he finished tying the cloth on her arm. "Thank you," she said as she smiled thankfully and hoped that her face wasn't completely red by now. Inuyasha blushed, "No problem," he whispered. "Well, we better be getting to bed now," Kihana said as she got up. "Yeah," Inuyasha agreed. When the two got back everyone was still sleeping. "Goodnight Inuyasha," Kihana said as they stood outside of her room. "'Night," he replied. The two only looked at each other. Then Inuyasha leaned in and kissed Kihana. Kihana, who was greatly surprised by what Inuyasha did, didn't protest to his kiss. The two hanyous pulled away from each other and looked each other in the eyes with soft expressions. Then, a crimson color crept up onto Kihana's cheeks and she kissed Inuyasha once more on his cheek; then she walked inside her room and shut the door behind her. 'She's wonderful' Inuyasha thought as he walked over to his own room. 'Huh? What am I thinking?! I love Kagome... don't I?' The question ran through Inuyasha's head until he slipped into sleep.
