"Remember... I will keep hold of you... and never let go."

Chapter 1

Author's Note: My second Inu fanfic. Please R&R!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Damn!!" Inuyasha yelled. He had already killed most of the swarm, but they just kept coming. Miroku was hitting them with his staff. Sango was busy with her own group of demons gnawing at her boomerang. I was running out of arrows to shoot. We were all very busy, including Kagura, who was smiling evily upon her perch of a grey coloredfeather. She wasn't ready for Inuyasha to shoot up to her feather, though.

"So that's how you play, huh? Well, I think I'll just right for you," Kagura lowered her feather and jumped to the ground.

"Oh, you just never saw me really play. Miroku, take Sango and Kagome away!" Inuyasha transformed his sword.

It was now covered in flames. He took a step and leapt up into the air. I watched from behind a big boulder with Shippo in my arms and Sango and Miroku on either side of me. I definitely felt safe behind the rock. Miroku's hand was on Sango's back, slowlymoving downwards.

"Miroku, you lecher! This is not the time for that sort of business!!" I hissed into Miroku's ear. I think he looked cute when my breath tickled his ears. Miroku's hand instantly went back up again. I was wondering why Sango wasn't doing anything.

I watched Tetsuiga make a ring of flames around Kagura and himself. I was watching with surprise. I never saw him do thatbefore. He must have been practicing it while I was at home studying for my geometry exams. Kagura flapped her fan in the air and everytime, large pieces of wind appeared and tried to cut Inuyasha. He was dodging them carefully, no, wait - OUCH!! Inuyasha's armwas bleeding badly. I was terrified.

"Inuyasha... INUYASHA!!!"

I was crazy. I know I was. I shouldn't have gone out there. But Inuyasha was in danger. I had to help him. No matter what. I ran for my life. I had to. Inuyasha was in danger. When I looked up through the smoke, I saw him. His body was turned into a huge bloody lump

with white hair and a head. No...no...no! I ran into him and hugged him. I didn't care if his body was covered with blood or not. I didn't care even if he looked at me with aggravation. I just wanted to hold him. Hold him and make him stay there. Keep him from going anywhere. Of course, with those conditions, he wouldn't be. But I didn't care. I wanted to protect him, to keep him from being hurt anymore.

"Kagome... Stay away... You're going to get hurt," Inuyasha was starting to fall down. His legs were cut badly.

My voice was shaking. "No. You're going to be all right. I'm not going anywhere. Sit down," Inuyasha fell face flat on the floor.

Oops. I guess I sort of forgot. Inuyasha was now unconsious.

"My, my, my. The girl seems to protect the boy now. Oh well, I don't care. I'll just kill all of you." Kagura was grinning. No, cackling. Evily.

I don't think I know what happened next. I think my head got busted.
