On to chapter 2! I've gotten 3 reviews so far, and they have all been
good...so since this is my first story I'm surprised and happy. Anyway...I need
a good idea for Naraku's first EVIL plan so review with some ideas! Also,
in the next chapter I'm going to start responding to reviews from the last
chapter so if you review you get your name in the Fic. I will always give
credit to someone if they give me an idea so don't be afraid to give ideas,
also I'm looking for an editor for me to send each chapter to before I post
it. And lastly, check out my web site which also has my Fic in it and all
my contact info...and now...on with the story!

The group headed back to Kaede's hut in high spirits. They were chatting
merrily about the perfect weather and beautiful skies. Kagome and Inuyasha
were holding hands during the whole walk, silently telling eachother how
happy each was.
When they walked into Kaede's hut she knew instantly what had happened. "Well, it's about time you two stopped being so stupid." Kaede remarked coolly. "Not you too?" Kagome pleaded. "Hush child, I was kidding." Kaede said, and smiled.
They all laughed and sat down, staring at the simmering pot on the floor expectantly. "Food will be ready in ten minutes." Kaede said, seeing their faces. They all went outside to wait, but when Kaede called them back in, Inuyasha held Kagome back, "We need to talk privately after lunch." Kagome nodded and they walked inside.
After lunch Kagome and Inuyasha told the others they were going for a walk. They set off towards the forest, so they would not be overheard. "I have some things to explain to you about demon customs." Inuyasha said to Kagome. "Ok, but before you start let me tell you the things I already know: I know demons mate for life, and that they make their bond permanent by simultaneously biting eachother on the nape of the neck during...well...uh...erm..." Kagome trailed off, but Inuyasha understood. "Well that means you only need to know one more thing, when a demon confesses their love to another, and that persons loves them back, a bond is created and it is considered courting. I don't know if you noticed, but since I told you I loved you yesterday, you have had two tiny red slashes in the place where I would mark you if we mate. Those slashes are my mark and signify the courting." Inuyasha explained. "Also, when a demon is courting someone, that person takes on a little bit of their smell, not as much as the person would if they mated but a little bit. Which probably means we will be getting a visit from Kouga soon." As if waiting for Inuyasha to say that, they saw a tornado of dust coming towards them, fast.
Within seconds Kouga was there, leering at Inuyasha. "Why does she smell like you dog-boy?" Kouga asked angrily. "I think you know why." Inuyasha replied with a smirk. "But to be courting someone that person has to confess their love, and mean it." Kouga said, looking bewildered. "I know." said Inuyasha, his grin widening. "I'm sorry Kouga but I just don't feel the same way about you, I love Inuyasha." Kagome cut in.
Inuyasha's smile seemed to be filling his face. He pulled Kagome to him and she relaxed in is grip. Kouga was glaring so hard, he looked ready to kill, "Courting doesn't mean anything!" Kouga spat, "If I mark her first, then she's mine!" He hissed. "I would watch your back if I were you." He said, and then sped off.
Inuyasha's smile was wiped off his face, and Kagome was shivering with fright. "I didn't think he would turn that nasty." Kagome practically whispered. "It's ok" Inuyasha said in a soothing voice, "I'll protect you."
They headed back to the hut in silence. Both contemplating telling the other's about Kouga's threat. When they were about a minute away from the hut, Kagome spoke up, "We should tell Sango and Miroku about Kouga, that way they will be ready for an attack next time we see him." She said, "And we really do have to start searching for the jewel again, its almost been a week, with the rest we took, then me going home after..." Kagome stopped, the memory still pained her. Inuyasha saw the pain in her eyes and turned to console her. "I wont go back to Kikyo, if that's what you were thinking." He said. "I know." She cried, "but I can't help it. I worry that she will come back one day and take you to hell with her." Kagome said, letting her tears flow freely. "I will not go to hell with Kikyo, and I will not leave you for her. I've realized that a persons first love prepares them for their true love. Kikyo was my first love, and you are my true love." Inuyasha remarked, in serious tone. But he was smiling down at her.
"Oh Inuyasha." She whispered, and threw her arms around his neck, crushing her lips against his. He returned the kiss with equal passion, and they only parted to breath. When they finished kissing Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's hand and they set off towards Kaede's. "We will tell Sango and Miroku about Kouga." Inuyasha said, and after that they walked in blissful silence. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- Ok, so Kouga is in the story now. And don't worry, he wont capture or rape Kagome. Inuyasha wouldn't like that one bit! And we wouldn't want to anger out cute little hanyou now would we? Anyway...I will try to update faster next time but you all know what finals are like. Please R&R! Ciao!
