Tears of Doubt

Disclaimer: I still don't own Inuyasha, oh well I've gotten used to that little fact.

Time to acknowledge my great reviewers. Thanx to: Rogues Heart, Blue Demon Dragon, fluffy sama 13, and Serenity 971.

Sorry if I've left someone out, I'm trying to get everyone's names down. Without you reviewers there wouldn't be a story...........oh great I sound like one of those political people.

by the way sorry for the terrible chapter last time, I reread and realized how awful it was. I'll try to do better this time. Enought talk on with the chapter.

**************************Chapter 10

Sesshomaru walked up to the door of the cabin and opened it. Without saying anything he walked in.

"Jeez, doesn't the guy even knock first," said Kagome in a exasperated voice. 'I'll just have to teach him some manners.' She thought to herself as she followed him. 'Who lives here I wonder?' Gazing around the cabin she noted that it was very tidy.
Realising that Sesshomaru had left her behind she was just about to yell at him, when she felt something crawling up her leg. "Eeep" she squeaked and started swatting wildly at her leg with her eyes closed. She knew for sure that it was a big hairy bug that was going to bite her.

"Calm down girly," a deep male voice amusingly said. "I don't bite much unless you want me to."

Kagome looked down and saw a man sitting on the ground grinning wolfishly at her. He had black hair and green eyes with slightly pointy ears. 'Not another Miroku,' she thought, 'please let it have just been a bug that touched my leg.'
Her plea wasn't answered. The man was just about to reach a hand out to touch her leg when she heard Sesshomaru growl.

"She is not for you, Arashi."

Arashi looked between Kagome and Sesshomaru. He sniffed the air then smirked. "You have not mated yet, so she is fair game." Arashi said and picked himself up off the ground. Suddenly he was backed against the wall with a clawed hand against his throat.

Sesshomaru deadly said, "Do not touch her again." Then he released Arashi and stalked outside.

Arashi rubbed his throat and turned to Kagome. He grinned at her then said, "Can I watch when you two do finally mate?"

Kagome having recovered from her stupor huffed and then stalked out after Sesshomaru.

Arashi still grinned after watching her retreating back. "She never said no," he said aloud to himself. He turned at the sound of scuffling feet. Seeing Jaken's serious face he sobered and asked, "What's happened?"

Jaken took a deep breath and told him the whole story.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Sesshomaru, would you wait just a moment, I can't walked that fast." Kagome called out to him. She sighed with relief as he slowed his paced and waited for her. "We really need to talk about ......" She was cut off as her crushed his lips to hers. A soft sigh escaped her lips. Just as suddenly as the kiss was started he ended it and pulled away from her.

"What do we need to talk about?" he quietly asked her.

She looked at him blankly and said, "I don't remember." Then the fog seemed to suddenly clear from her eyes and she said "Oh I do remember. Why did your arm grow back?"

He glanced at his arm and said, "I have yet to understand the reason."

"I have another question. What's the game plan for tomorrow?" When he looked at her strangly, she refrased her words. " What I mean is what are we going to do tomorrow?"

"We are going to save Rin. We will leave in the morning before the sun rises."

They both quietly walked back towards the cabin.

Kagome shreiked when they walked in the cabin. All of her cloths, food, and 'female stuff' was thrown all over the room. Her bag of candy was gone. "SHIPPO!" she yelled out loud.

Shippo walked in there slowly and said," I didn't do it honestly." He frowned as he continued, "I thought it would make Jaken and Arashi feel better if they had some candy, after they tried it they wanted more." He began to cry, "I'm sorry"

Kagome hugged him and said," It's okay, it wasn't your fault." She looked into his face, "Just don't take stuff from my bag without asking okay?" she gently chided him.
Turning back towards Sesshomaru she was just about to tell him to have a talk with his friend when she notice him holding up a box of tampons. She eeped and grabbed it from him.

He looked at her funny and said, "Is that your candy?"

She quickly said, "No" and stuffed the box back in her pack. She gathered up her clothes and put them in too.

"What is it then?" he asked curiously. She had seemed to panic slightly when he held it up. 'may be,' he thought, ' it was some sort of spell scrolls with great power.'

Kagome nervously waved her hand in front of her, "It's nothing important, really."

He didn't ask anymore questions, having already decided that they were power scrolls. 'Perhaps they will be of some use against the immortals.' he thought.

Kagome walked into the room where she heard Arashi and Jaken talking and laughing. She cleared her throat and yelled, " How dare you go through my stuff. You have to get permission before you do that." She yelled at them some more about people's property, then stomped out of the room.

Arashi glanced at Jaken and asked, "Do you have any idea what she's talking about?"

Jaken shrugged his shoulders and said, "I never do."

Kagome walked back over to her bag and pulled out her math book. ' I really need to study. I've got to pass that math exam.' She tried studying but the numbers just seem to blur and she found herself daydreaming about Sesshomaru. 'He kisses great,' she thought and sighed. Then she blinked rapidly. 'I just realized I haven't hardly thought about Inuyasha at all. Do I really still love him?' She thought of how he kissed Kikyo and she felt nothing. Quickly putting her book down she stood up and started jumping up and down with happiness. "Goodbye pain, hello freedom. Whoo"

Sesshomaru looked at her and thought, ' Now instead of strange woman, I'm traveling with an insane, strange woman.' He left and went to where Arashi and Jaken were still sitting. "Did Jaken tell you?" he asked Arashi.

He nodded his head and asked, "What are you going to do about the strange girl? Are you going to do what they say and kill her or have you thought of another way?"

Sesshomaru shook his head, "I don't know exactly." He frowned as he said," I need you to awaken Kagome's full power."

Arashi grinned and clapped his hands together, "No problem, and I'll be real gentle too." He stopped smiling when he noticed the look Sesshomaru gave him. "Relax I was joking, I wouldn't take your girl away from ya." He then gave Sesshomaru a sympathetic look and said, "never thought you'd actually fall for a girl much less a human. Me, I'm never gonna fall for any girl no matter how beautiful."

Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes and glared at his friend, "What makes you think that I've fallen for her?"
Arashi just grinned at him and said, "Bring her to me. This may be a little painful for her. So be ready to hold her."
