Chapter 7
A brilliant light surrounded Inuyasha, one so blinding that Kagome had to shut her eyes. When she opened them, she saw Inuyasha standing in front of her in his human form. "Inuyasha! Are you fully human now?" Kagome asked. "Close. I used the jewel to make myself look human, except I kept my demon powers. I wanted to always be able to protect you, Kagome. The only other difference is that I will age like a human now, so we can live the rest of our lives together." Inuyasha answered. With that, he grabbed Kagome's shoulders and gave her a passionate kiss. "I love you, Kagome." He told her. "I love you too, Inuyasha." Kagome responded. "This is the happiest moment of my life." She thought to herself.
Shippo walked up to the well and found Inuyasha and Kagome kissing. "Wow! I never thought I would see this!" Shippo exclaimed. Inuyasha and Kagome stopped kissing momentarily, blushed, and then continued on with what they were doing before Shippo walked up. "Hey,Shippo," Inuyasha said after finally breaking his embrace with Kagome. "Go find Miroku and Sango. I want to explain to all of you what happened tonight." Shippo nodded and ran towards Kaede's village, where he had last seen Miroku and Sango. "Inuyasha looks human, but he still smells like a demon," Shippo thought to himself. "What is going on here?"
Sango, Miroku, and Shippo all walked up to the well about 15 minutes later. "I thought that your 'time of the month' had already passed, Inuyasha?" Sango asked upon seeing Inuyasha's human form standing before her. "Yes, it has. I won't have to worry about that anymore, though." Inuyasha replied. "What do you mean, Inuyasha?" Miroku wondered. "I used the Shikon Jewel to turn myself into a human." Inuyasha answered. "Then why do you still smell like a demon?" Shippo asked, obviously confused. "I decided to keep my demon powers so I could always protect Kagome." Inuyasha said. "I'm still confused about one thing, Inuyasha. Will you continue to age like a demon or like a human?" Sango asked. "I made sure that I will age like a human." Inuyasha answered. "Why would you do that? Demons can live much longer than humans." Miroku wondered. "Only one reason: I want to grow old with Kagome." Inuyasha answered, looking straight into Kagome's eyes. Kagome smiled and gave Inuyasha a hug. "That's so romantic." Sango said quietly. "I also want to grow old with you, Sango." Miroku said devilishly. Pat pat. This was followed by a familiar sound: SLAP.
