Chapter 19!
I really wont be typing to my fullest today, I can't use my left hand fir a while, which sucks, but, whatever...
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. Just my Inuyasha shirts and Inuyasha plushie, for those who asked, I got the plushie at Suncoast believe it or not. I love that store!
I'm also very sorry that I haven't updated in a long time. My laptop went down, and I had to buy some new stuff for it, but now its back up and running and so here I am! I will do my best to keep up now that this is back up and running.
The so called family sat around the dinner table, along with Kikyou, Kagome, and Kouga (huh... weird... there all 'K's'...) The group of them were very quiet. As always though, Sesshormaru had to break the peace and tranquility, with yet another input on Inuyasha's 'slave'.
"What was that infuriating screaming I heard earlier?" he asked, knowing damn well what is was, with demon hearing and all. He just loved to pick and pry. He had heard it when Kagome yelled at Inuyasha for walking in on her in the nude, he heard every word of it.
"Was it sort of high pitch and shrilly?" Inuyasha asked.
Sesshormaru, not knowing where Inuyasha was getting at, answered. "Yes, it was."
"Oh, then it was Kouga, he turned on the cold water in the shower earlier."
"Dog-turd..." Kouga mumbled under his breath, it wasn't his fault the faucets at home were different than here. Sesshormaru just looked in frustration and continued to eat his dinner.
So that's how the meal went on, in complete silence, no one even asked who the wolf-demon was that had now joined them at the table. Things had been so weird lately, no one was in the right mind to question anything.
Inuyasha quickly finished his meal, and waited for Kagome who promptly finished hers soon after. Inuyasha raised up and motioned for Kagome to follow. She did and they left the table in silence.
They walked up the stairs and into their joint room and Kagome sat down on the bed. "I'm so tired!" she said with a slight sigh as she rested her head on her intertwined arms behind her head.
"Feh..." Inuyasha grunted in reply.
"I think I'm just gonna take a nap." She said, and closed her eyes and proceeded to sleep on her bed.
"Stupid humans... sleep all the time..." he grumbled to himself. Inuyasha looked over the sleeping form of her body. He watched her breath slowly raise her chest up and down. Not to mention her shirt too.
'Ah! What am I doing looking at that for!' he thought angrily to himself. He looked out the window and saw the sun was just beginning to set slightly. His heart missed a beat as he thought of something.
He searched madly through the sky, looking for something, but to his disgrace, he couldn't find it.
"Damn... not that time of the month again... I haven't even told Kagome about that yet... I wonder what she will think..." he mumbled incoherently to himself as he stared at the setting sun.
He looked back over to Kagome, and tried to keep his thoughts from being like Miroku's. Finding it hard enough, he just decided he should watch the sun set, till his time came.
He sat for an hour, just staring at the sun, or what was left of it. He watched as it moved lower and lower in the horizon, till the skies turned darker and darker. Then when the sun was fully gone, he felt his body change.
His ears formed into normal human ears, his senses dulled, his eyes turned from their bright yellow, to a duller brown, his hair turned jet black, and his nails turned into normal human nails. "I hate being human..." he cursed silently.
He stared up at the moonless sky and shook his head as he sat down on his bed waiting for Kagome to wake up, if she was ever going to.
As if right on cue, she stirred slightly, and turned over on her side to face where Inuyasha was sitting. "Morning Inuyasha..." she said in a moan, as she opened her eyes.
Shock hit her first, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!" she yelled loudly.
"SHH!!! Shut up wench! It's me!" Inuyasha hushed.
"Inuyasha?" she asked in complete awe. "Is that really you? What happened to you?" she asked as she got off the bed and touched his hair, to see if it was really real or just some cruel joke he was playing on her. Finding it to feel real, she then noticed his human ears. "Your ears too!" she said feeling them. "You're... Human..." she said making the connection.
"Yeah, what else did you think I was?" he asked as he turned his back from her. He hated his human side enough as it was.
"Why is this? Is it permanent?" she asked looking into his brown eyes.
"No, its only through the moonless nights." He told her. "Every half demon has a night once a month that they turn into a human, and this is just my night." He explained to her.
"Wow... that's really cool..." she said now looking at all of his fingers. "Though I think I like you in your half demon form." She said.
"Me too..." Inuyasha agreed.
"You know the myth behind why there is a moonless night?" Kagome asked, leaving Inuyasha from her close studying, and looking out the window.
"A myth?"
"You know, a fable... a-..." Inuyasha cut her off sharply.
"I know what a myth is, I meant, I didn't know there was a myth about the moonless nights." He said.
"Sorry, yes there is. It's about the goddess who would always lead the moon through the sky every night. She did this night after night, and that was her job. One night though she looked down and saw a beautiful man lying out on Earth. With one look at him she was instantly in love.
"She then abandoned the moon and went down to see this man on the Earth. So the moon wasn't brought across the sky. Zeus, the god of all the other gods and goddesses, found out about this and was furious, so he put a spell on the man after the goddess begged Zeus to turn him into a god.
"He put a spell on him that would allow him to live forever but in an eternal sleep. So once every month, the goddess goes down from the sky and sleeps with her slumbering lover." (I did this all from my memory of when I did some studies on this in my free time, might not be 100% accurate, but I believe it is close)
"That's messed up. She made him fall into a forever sleep just so she could be with him forever. What would the use be?" Inuyasha asked in confusion.
"She really loved him and probably couldn't live without him, and since she was a goddess and would live forever anyway, I bet it was hard to know that the one she loved so dearly would die one day and she would live on..."
"Yeah..." Inuyasha said thinking about the words. "I don't know what I would have done..." he said, speaking his mind.
"I think I would have let him choose... I don't think I could make that decision without knowing how they felt about it first." She said.
"I know what you mean..." Inuyasha said. "Are there other myths like that?" he asked.
"There is plenty!" Kagome said. "I love Greek mythology." She told him.
"Good! You can tell me more then!" he told her.
Kagome smiled and got comfortable on her bed before telling Inuyasha another one.
That's it for now... what did you think? Review! LOT OF LOVE! School is almost out and I want to finish this one, and I am working on another one as we speak. I also did a short fluff story that I wrote one night with Inuyasha and Kagome, called HeadAche...
Read it if you get the chance, its short but cute!
