Chapter 2: Friends?!?!

Kagome awoke to see a very angry demon standing over her. Kagome waited for her eyes to come into focus as the demon growled ferociously.

"Human, do you know how long you have been sleeping," She said , growling the words, baring her teeth. "I had to watch your fucking ass sleep for 4 fucking hours."

"You could've left me here," Kagome said, coming out of mental stupor. " It's not like you care I'm just a filthy human to you."

"You're right you are one, but I had to know. Why did you help me? Most humans and demons would've left me for dead." She whispered the end, hurt. "You must want something in return."

Kagome looked into her green eyes as if reading her mind. She traveled alone since she was 12. 'She must be so lonely', Kagome thought . In her eyes she could see betrayal, pain, fear, and sadness seeping out on tears of desire for companionship.( A/N- pretty deep). "Do you have any friends," Kagome asked, wishing she could take it back.

"No, no I don't," she said, painfully. "I don't need them anyway," she reassured herself.

"Well, I want you to be my friend, that is why I helped you." Blade stared at Kagome's request and thought it over mentally as Kagome added, " And you will not call me 'human' to get my attention. My name is Kagome , Ka-go-me."

"Ok ." she said, holding back the pain and joy from her voice though her eyes told her secrets.( A/N- that's deep too)

They had been walking for sometime and Kagome was getting tired. Blade sensing her fatigue stopped in her tracks making Kagome run into her back. "Hum- Kagome," she said, annoyed, "you can rest here ,if you want." Thankful Kagome got out a cushion and sat on the ground and yawned. Blade blew a stream of air upwards to her bangs making them float for a moment as she sat down across from Kagome.

"Why were you out her alone. It's dangerous for females, especially humans to wander out here. It is mating season, ya know ."

Kagome sat there shocked. Blade raised her eyebrow at her state of ( what's the word shock, suprisation. . . that's not a word ummm oh well I'll use shocked) shock. "Sorry," Kagome said, shaking off the look of stupidity of her face, "You don't seem like the one to start a conversation. I don't wanna talk about it. Why are you out here, anyway."

She lowered her eyebrow and got up annoyed. "I got tired of my friends and family."

" So you did have friends, what were they like. I bet they were nice. No, if they made you mad they must have been really horrible."

Kagome's statement struck a nerve somewhere inside Blade's head. She raised her claws high as they floated down and scraped Kagome's pure white cheek. Kagome let out a squeak of pain as red pain washed down her face.( A/N- deep [ I'm gonna stop saying this now its annoying]). Blade stood in horror at what she had done. 'Again' she thought, ' I hurt another friend.

She walked over to Kagome and set by her the cheek she released her wrath on. She removed the hand as Kagome struggled against her grasp, not knowing if she hurt it again. Blade muttered her apologies in a very sympathetic tone. She sniffed the blood as she took her tongue and it over the scratches. She licked the blood seeping from her face, disinfecting her slashes. When it was done she stepped back as Kagome fell over rubbing her cheek. She sighed inwardly as her hand came back clean.

"I thought you were a blood sucker," she said staring at her hand. She blushed as she looked at Blade, just standing there with a sad smile and tears streaming down her face. "That's what Mitsuki said the first time I met her."

Kagome looked at her , she was sad yet so beautiful. " I'm sorry I said that about your friends, I had no right."

"Yeah, well I'm sorry I hit you. They were nice to me, even when they knew what I was." Kagome stared at her with questioning eyes, not knowing whether to ask or not. Before she could gather her thoughts, Blade let out a sigh of annoyance.

"Human, are you ready," she said, with a slight note of tenseness ( is that a word). Kagome ignored her comment, by humming a nameless tune. " Fine, Ka-go-me, lets go."

"Ok ," Kagome blushed, "hold on a sec." She ran into the forest. She had just remembered that she was on her period. She had felt a major cramp rush over lower body. She did what she had to do ( im childish sorry) and walked over to Blade with a major blush. ' I wonder if she can tell,' Kagome thought, ' should she be able I mean she is female. Don't only men know this kind of stuff.'

"Jeez Kagome," Blade said, "We're walking around in a forest with a bunch of lust filled demons and you have to be in heat." She crouched down in front as Kagome stared in disbelief. "Hop on."

"No way," she yelled, embarrassed.

"Get the fuck on human or I'll leave you here." Kagome hesitantly got on her back.

Kagome gripped her shoulders, hard. She ran faster than Inu Yasha , much faster. InuYasha soared through the air, taking in all the scenery. She ran so fast that everything just seemed to blur in the vision, whether the rider and the runner, it doesn't matter. This blurred vision bothered Kagome especially didn't like it when they were closing off on a large green and brown thing ahead. She closed her eyes as Blade run up to the top of the tree.

She stopped abruptly making Kagome slam into her. She dropped her on the branch as she shook her many tails briskly, shaking off invisible dust. She walked to the end of the skinny part of the branch without so much as a stumble or the urge to hold out her arms in support.

"You're so lucky to be able to walk that." Blade ignored her comment as she shook her tails even more as she sniffed the air. "Shit, it's a full moon. I have to go to Mitsuki's," Kagome heard the words drift backwards to her, not moving for the fear of falling.

Blade looked over the immense forest that lay beneath her. She searched with her ears and her eyes. She was looking for her friend, her only friend that she told no one about..
