"No!" Kira yelled back. "He's truly sorry and you told me you wouldn't attack!"
"That was before I realized who it was!"
"Don't worry Kira," said Kouga. "I know how weak this mutt face is. He's not fast enough to hit me!" With a yell Inuyasha charged forward out of Kira's grasp and she toppled over backwards where Miroku caught her. He went after Kouga swinging wildly but Kouga was always a step ahead of him. A few times he came pretty close to contact but Kouga always quickly recovered and jumped ahead again.
"Inuyasha! Stop it right now!" Kagome yelled after them.
"Don't worry Kagome! This mutt will never be able to hit me!" Kouga replied and Inuyasha growled and renewed his attacks.
"Both of you freeze right now!" screamed Kira with such force they both stopped and stared. She got to her feet and continued. "Inuyasha I already hit him hard enough for both us okay! You can leave him alone! He was truly sorry!" she turned to Kouga, "You need to shut up with the insults. You're just provoking him even more so just stop it!" With hateful glares at each other they both did as asked and Inuyasha sheathed his sword again. "That's better." Said Kira, "Now you need to stay that way for a while! If I had known bringing him would cause so much trouble I would have never done it."
Kouga shrugged and walked over to Kagome and took her hands. "Well, it appears it's time for me to go, sweet Kagome. I'll be back if you need me though!" He then started to walk over to Kira but stopped a bit away at Inuyasha's glares. "I'm sorry Kira. Torn between you and Kagome..." With that said he ran off leaving a trail of dust behind him.
"Feh..." said Inuyasha, plopping down. "I'm glad he's finally gone." He shied away under Kira's fierce gaze. With her eyes bright red she started yelling at him. "Why did you do that? What's he done to you? How, how do you even know him?"
When Inuyasha didn't answer Miroku stepped up. "Kouga is after Kagome and Inuyasha's jealous." He said simply while Inuyasha promptly stood, walked a few feet away, and sat back down again.
He's embarrassed, thought Kira. Then she spoke aloud, "It's getting late. Why don't we camp in these woods for tonight?" she pointed to a thick forest to the left of where they were standing. Everyone agreed and they settled down. Kira went to Inuyasha and asked him to join them but the only reply she got was a quick "Feh" as he lied down where he sat. Deciding it was a lost cause, she climbed up a big tree above the others below and settled down with her back resting against the trunk. Shortly after she fell into a troubled sleep full of terrible dreams death and destruction.
She awoke with a start and looked around. She almost fell out of the tree in fright when she saw someone beside her in the tree but recovered when she saw who it was. Inuyasha had come in the night and climbed silently into the tree on the branch beside her and had fallen asleep there. She smiled as she looked at him, finally feeling like she belonged. A week had passed since Kira had left with Inuyasha. She had spent this time catching up on old news, drawing in her sketchbook, which she had brought, and practicing with her sword. She was getting very good at it. Kouga had popped in a few times, but was quickly chased away by an angry Inuyasha, but not before he had made a few more love proposals to Kagome and now Kira too. Kira started to grow sad and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hide it from the others. Her deep blue eyes gave it away instantly. Finally one day she announced to the others what was bothering her. "I keep having these dreams of my family through the well. And... of Kyle."
"Was Kyle the human boy that kissed you?" Inuyasha asked, causing Kira to blush and the others to stare. "Do you miss him?"
"N-no..." Kira stammered. "Well, yes. But that's not why I need to go back! Something doesn't feel right... I keep having these horrible dreams, like they're in danger!"
"But you're home? Why do you want to go back?" Inuyasha asked.
"You know why," replied Kagome. "It's the same reason I like to go back. To reacquaint myself with all the things I'm used to that I don't get to experience here. She's used to the modern world still and this time and the things that go on here are totally different."
"Well, I guess a fast trip back won't do any harm..." Kira's eyes turned their normal bright green as she yelled happily and hugged her older brother. They packed up their camp and started off towards the well, making it there without interruption. Inuyasha took Kagome and Kira's hands while Miroku took Sango's while Shippou climbed on his shoulder and Kirara into Sango's arms. They went down the well in pairs coming out in the territory Kira had grown up in as Kate. They went quietly through the woods at a leisurely pace until they came to Kira's house. She went quickly up the steps to her front door and knocked loudly expecting a warm welcome. She heard the approaching footsteps but noted the unusual slow drag of the steps. Instead of being greeted with joy it was with caution, like her dad was scared of her. "What's going on?" asked Kira.
"Come inside, I'll explain in there." With a look around Kira's dad pulled her inside and slammed the door leaving the others standing around the porch. "What was that all about?" asked Kagome. "I don't know but I'm going to find out." Inuyasha took Kagome by the arm and jumped up the window of Kira's old room, escorting himself inside. The others were left below outside wondering what was going on.
"That was before I realized who it was!"
"Don't worry Kira," said Kouga. "I know how weak this mutt face is. He's not fast enough to hit me!"
