19. Someone to Love
Inuyasha woke up and looked around. It was still late at night. 'That dream, it felt so real. Did it really happen?' he thought, 'The woman lived somewhere by the sacred tree in a cave. Maybe I'll go there in the morning to make sure.' He watched KiLaLa sleep.
'Should I bring her?' he thought, 'Maybe I'll bring her to the old man to visit Kagome and I'll go to the cave.' He agreed to his idea and went back to sleep.
Morning...
KiLaLa woke up first and slowly crawled to Inuyasha. "Daddy, wake up," she said and gently shook him. Inuyasha opened his eyes. "You woke up first?" he asked and rubbed his eyes. "Yep," she said and smiled. "You want to go visit your mom today?" Inuyasha asked. KiLaLa nodded. "Okay, let's get going," he said and got up.
KiLaLa got up and winced a little. "Are you sure you can walk?" he asked. "I can do it. I just need to get used to it," she said and walked out the hut. Inuyasha followed her and they walked to the well together. He picked her up and he jumped in the well.
"Mama!" KiLaLa yelled and ran to her grave. "I'm going to go to the village when I'm human and teach them that all demons aren't bad. Will you be there with me?" she asked. A familiar breeze blew and Kagome appeared behind KiLaLa. "I don't know if you should do that," she said and KiLaLa turned around. "Mama! I haven't seen you in such a long time!"
"I've always been with you even though you don't see me," Kagome said and smiled. She turned to Inuyasha. "You can go and search for the cave. I will watch her. I told Lady Najeca that you were going," she said and Inuyasha nodded. "I'll be back in an hour or so," he said and ran off.
"So what have you been doing, mama?" KiLaLa asked. "Watching you and I don't think it's such a good idea for you to go in that village," Kagome said and sat by the sacred tree. "I won't go alone. You and daddy will come with me, right?" KiLaLa asked. "We'll see," Kagome said and sang a song. KiLaLa listened and hummed with her.
...With Inuyasha...
He went through the well and ran to the sacred tree. He ran in the direction of the cave and came to it. 'It looks exactly like the cave in my dream,' he thought and walked in.
"Inuyasha, Kagome told me you would be coming." A woman stepped out of the shadows. "Who are you?" he asked. "My name is Lady Najeca," she said and stirred the pot in front of her. "Is there anything you would like to talk about?" she asked.
"Yea, I had this dream that I came here before," he said. "Well, you have been here before. When you were with Kagome. It was a long time ago. You wanted to see your futures," she said. "But that wasn't our future. Kagome is gone. We can't have that future anymore." Inuyasha sighed. "That is true that Kagome isn't here anymore, but your future is still the same."
"How? Are you saying Kagome will come back to life?" Inuyasha asked. "I'm not saying anything," Lady Najeca said and stopped stirring her pot. "I tell a lot of futures, Inuyasha. I can barely keep up with them all. Do you want to see your little girl's future?" she asked.
"Who KiLaLa?" he asked and looked into the pot. "No, the other little girl. Phoenix I think her name is. Watch," she said and the liquid in the pot formed into a picture. A black wolf was sitting by the sacred tree. There was a grave stone at the foot of the tree. The wolf whimpered and got up off the ground. Another brown wolf walked up to her and they slowly walked away together.
"Quite a sad future, but that was only a part of it. That black wolf was her now wasn't it?" Lady Najeca asked and the liquid turned clear. "That must have been Kagome's grave stone." Inuyasha said. Lady Najeca didn't say anything and sighed.
"I think you need to go get your daughter. She's starting to wonder if you are going to leave her there forever," she said. "Isn't Kagome there with her?" Inuyasha asked. "Yes, they are walking in the forest together, but she is still thinking that you might leave her there," Lady Najeca said. "Then, I better get going. Thanks for everything," he said and left the cave.
"Good luck, Inuyasha. You'll need it soon," she said and went back into the shadows. Inuyasha ran to the well and jumped in. He landed on the solid ground and jumped back out of the well. KiLaLa and Kagome were just walking out of the forest. "Daddy! I missed you!" KiLaLa yelled.
"I wasn't gone that long, was I?" he asked and picked her up. "Me and mama got to talk about everything!" KiLaLa said and smiled. "So did Lady Najeca fill in any blanks?" Kagome asked.
"Not really, I just got to see Phoenix's future. It was really strange," he said. "You can tell me about it next time. I've got to go find someone for Najeca. I'll see you next time. I love you both." She kissed each of them and walked away. "Bye mama!" KiLaLa yelled and she disappeared.
"Ready to go home?" Inuyasha asked. "Yep!" KiLaLa said. Inuyasha walked to the well and jumped in. They hit solid ground and he jumped back out. "You said you got to see Phoenix's future. What was it about?" KiLaLa asked. "It was only a part of her future. I don't think you should know. It was her future and everyone doesn't need to know about it," he said.
"Okay," KiLaLa said and Inuyasha put her down. "Don't tell Phoenix that I saw her future either because she'd end up asking me questions about it. I'm just not ready to answer them," he said. "Did you see my future, daddy?" she asked. "Sorry, but no," he said.
'I don't want her to ask questions either,' he thought. They walked to the hut and everyone was awake. "Hey dad, where did you go?" Phoenix asked as she ran to him. She was back in her human form. "We just went to visit someone, that's all," Inuyasha said. Kanaye ran up to KiLaLa with something behind his back.
"I picked these for you," he said and held up different kinds of beautiful flowers. "Wow! They're so pretty! Thank you, Kanaye," she said and kissed him on the cheek. He turned a deep red and mumbled a "your welcome." They walked off to the entrance of the forest and started to talk.
Phoenix sighed. "I'll never find a boy to love," she said and walked into the forest. Inuyasha laughed to himself and walked in the hut. "Inuyasha, where did you go off to this morning?" Sango asked when he walked in. "We went to visit Kagome. Where's Miroku?" he asked and sat down next to her. "He's at the river, fishing," she said and started boiling a pot of water.
"I don't think he's going to catch anything so I always have a backup meal," she said and cut some vegetables. "Kanaye's getting some courage, I see," he said. Sango stopped cutting the vegetables and gave him a confused look. "What do you mean getting courage?" she asked.
"He just gave KiLaLa a bunch of flowers. Now they're talking at the entrance of the forest," Inuyasha said and laughed a little. "He talked to me about that this morning. He asked me what girls like and I told him flowers," she said and laughed. "You'll never guess what Phoenix said after they walked off," he said. "What did she say?" Sango asked.
"She said she'll never find a boy to marry," he said and they laughed. "I'm sure she'll find someone when she's older," Sango said and started cooking again. Miroku walked in with his clothes soaked. "What happened to you?" Inuyasha asked.
"I was pulling a fish in, but instead it pulled me in," he said and dried off. "Where were you this morning?" Miroku asked. Inuyasha took a deep breath and started to tell him.
...With Phoenix...
She walked slowly in the forest. She had transformed back into a wolf. 'KiLaLa has Kanaye and I have no one,' she thought. Her ears twitched when she heard something. The bushes in front of her shook. She growled and got ready to strike.
A brown wolf with soft amber eyes stepped out. Phoenix stopped growling and stood up straight. The wolf whimpered and fell. Phoenix walked up to him and whimpered. The wolf opened his eyes and licked her nose. 'I have to help him. He needs water,' she thought. She licked his nose to tell him that she would be right back. He closed his eyes and sighed.
Phoenix ran to the hut and grabbed a bowl with her teeth. "Phoenix, where are you going?" KiLaLa yelled, but she was already back in the forest. Phoenix ran to the stream and filled the bowl with water. She quickly ran back to the wolf, making sure she didn't spill the water.
She gently set the bowl down next to him and nudged his nose. He opened his eyes and saw the bowl. He slowly lifted his head and drank it. Phoenix turned back into a human. "You can come back with me and I'll give you some food and more water. Can you turn into a human like me?" she asked. He gave a slow nod and turned into a human.
He had untidy brown hair and freckles on his face. Phoenix put his arm around her neck and pulled him to his feet. "Try to lean on me and walk," she said and he did. "What's my angel's name?" he asked. "My name is Phoenix. What's yours?" she asked.
"My name's Jason," he said and smiled. "Where are you from?" Phoenix asked. "I live with my parents in a wolf den, but I wondered out and got lost. I've had no food or water for the past five days," he said. "Don't worry, I'll take care of you. We have plenty of food and water where I live," she said. "Thank you," Jason said.
"Only a little further," she said and reached the entrance of the forest. KiLaLa and Kanaye only watched them walk to the hut. Inuyasha walked out of the hut and saw them. "Phoenix!" he yelled and ran to her.
"Dad, he's been without food or water for five days. Can't he rest here until he is able to go home?" Phoenix asked. Inuyasha sighed. 'How do I get in so many situations like this?' he thinks. "Okay, but only until he is able to go back to his family," he said and brought them into the hut. "Sango, can you make an extra bowl of soup?" Inuyasha asked. "Sure," she said.
Phoenix sat him down on the floor leaning against the wall. "Do you like soup, Jason?" she asked. "Never had it before," he said and smelt the air. "It smells good, though."
Phoenix laughed. Inuyasha sat by Sango. "I think she found someone," he whispered. "So we have two demon girls with two human boys," she said and laughed. "I don't know. He doesn't smell like a human. It's more like a wolf, but that might be Phoenix next to him," he said.
"Lunch is served!" Sango yelled and uncovered the bowls of soup on the floor. Everyone grabbed a bowl and sat in their corners. The adults sat together, Kanaye and KiLaLa sat together, and Phoenix and Jason sat together. She grabbed two bowls and brought them to him. "Here, try it. It's good," she said and put it in his hands.
Jason smelled it and sipped it. "This is good," he said and drank a little more. Phoenix barely touched hers and watched him. Inuyasha got done and walked outside. "I'll be right back," Phoenix said and went outside. "Dad?" she asked when she caught up with him."Yeah?"
"It seems like you don't like Jason," she said and sat on the grass. Inuyasha sat by her. "Oh, that's his name. I don't know. It's just something Sango told me," he said. "What did she tell you?" she asked. "She told me that ya'll are two demons with two humans," he said and stood up. "What are you talking about? Jason's not a human!" She stood up.
"He's not? Then what is he?" Inuyasha asked. "He's a wolf like me," she said and walked back into the hut. Jason was finished with his soup. Phoenix sat by him. "Jason, do you know what direction you came from?" she asked. "Yes, I came from the west."
"Hey kid, come outside a minute," Inuyasha said when he stuck his head inside. Jason looked at Phoenix and she just shrugged. They walked outside. "I heard you came from the west. Is that true?" Inuyasha asked. Jason nodded. "Did you live in a wolf den?" Inuyasha asked. Jason nodded. "Dad, just tell us where you are going with this!" Phoenix yelled.
"Your father's name wouldn't be Kouga by any chance?"
Hi minna-san! (everyone) I'm sorry for this cliffhanger. It's really bad that I'm doing this. The contest of the reviews were really hard. I had so many good ones, but first of all, I'd like to thank all my reviewers personally. Thanks LuminescentWings0127 (glad you like it! I liked your review because it was short and sweet) Thanks TheeBytch (I decided not to put Kirara in the story. I'm glad I got a B) Thanks Astaparesta (I'm going to try and fix them sleeping too much. You're the first one to ask me for the pictures and you liked them! And don't worry about kikiyo) Thanks Evl5011 (I loved your email so much. I almost cried when I read it) Now the winner of the contest is drum roll Astaparesta! You looked at my pictures and liked them! You gave me advice for my story. And you told me what you thought about kikiyo. I thought it was really funny. Then you even asked my permission to use KiLaLa's name for your story. I feel so happy. So congratulations! (I think that's how you spell it)
I was about to name this chapter, 'Jason, who is your father?' just to be funny. You know like Star Wars. Like the 'Luke, I am your father.' Isn't that funny? (Silence followed by crickets) Come on, it was at least a little funny. (Crickets stop and it's totally silent) Whatever... So, do ya'll think Jason is Kouga's son? Who's the mother? All these questions will be answered in the next chapter of Inuyasha's Loss! Review please! I'm trying to get at least close to a hundred reviews and I'm far from it...remember the contest is still going on...
