The Demon Known as Kagome

Chapter 10

--- ------ ----- ----- Last Time ----- -------- --------- No one was watching Kagome and Inu Yasha. They all had their eyes on Kouga. Inu Yasha stood up still holding Kagome. He set her down and looked at Kouga. He was trying so hard to suppress his demon side. ------- ------------ ------------- ----------

Kagome looked to Kouga and then back to Inu Yasha. She didn't know if she could stop him this time, but she had to try, no matter how mad she was at Kouga. She moved in-front of Inu Yasha.
Inu Yasha kept his gaze on Kouga, that is until Kagome moved in his way. He looked down at her with a growl.
Kouga looked to Ganu and growled back. He wasn't in the mood for a fight right now, but oh well. He was looking for Kagome, not them. He glanced at Miroku and Sango, who had no signs of coming to help him. 'Why do they not come to my aid? Why did they say that they were not my brother and sister?' Kouga ran these questions through his head a couple of times. He still couldn't figure it out (can you say DENSE!!!!!). After hearing Inu Yasha's growl Kagome winced. She was injured and had no way of stopping Inu Yasha if he got to much of his demon blood into him and got out of control. 'Sesshomaru why did you have to leave now?' Kagome asked herself. She kept her gaze steady on Inu Yasha. He stared back. Inu Yasha put a clawed hand out and she closed her eyes waiting for him to hit her out of the way. Instead he cupped her cheek and she opened her eyes, looking up at him, a single tear falling down over his hand. She had both of her hands on her side trying to stop the blood flow. 'I'm. I'm making her cry,' he thought to himself. He closed his eyes and when he opened them again they were his normal amber. His feelings for Kagome had over run his demon blood. He smiled slightly. "Kagome," he said softly. "Inu Yasha. I," she tried to say, but he moved his thumb to her lips. Inu Yasha looked down to her side again. He wrapped his arms around her waist. He felt guilty for causing her pain, but he knew she would say it wasn't his fault. no it was Kouga's. Inu Yasha growled again and he looked up to Kouga. Kouga looked to him and he gasped to himself when he saw Inu Yasha with his arms around this "demon." "You know Inu Yasha, you should be glad that Kagome is not here. You would hurt her feelings if she saw you holding that demon in your arms and for that I would have to kill you," Kouga said casually. Inu Yasha growled again and loosened his arms around Kagome's waist. "You know Kouga you should not speak of things that you know nothing about and are not involved in," Kagome said slowly and she glanced sideways and looked at him from facing Inu Yasha. "Why you!" Kouga was becoming mad at the demoness. He ran towards her, but when he was three feet away he was kicked in the side and she was no longer in his vision. Kouga rolled on the ground a few times and got up with a stagger. He looked to the person who kicked him and in-fact it was a white tailed female dog demon. Inu Yasha was in-front of Kagome with his sword in hand, but before he got to strike Kouga, the demon had kicked Kouga away. The female had a long flowing white tail about a foot shorter than Sesshomaru's, icy blue eyes, long white hair that came down to her waist, a light purple six-pointed starburst on her forehead, pointed ears, claws and fangs. She seemed to be the same age as Heisei, which would be 18. Miroku and Sango looked at the demon. Sango was ready to throw her boomerang if needed, but the demon looked at her. The demoness looked so familiar to Sango. Sango looked behind her and saw that Rin was gone. Sango looked to Kagome and Kagome nodded. "Rin? Is that really you?" she asked. "Who else would I be?" she asked, no longer in her child's voice, but now a soft elegant one. Heisei ran over to Rin and they started giggling to each other. "Rin? That can't be Rin. Rin is a human child," Kouga said. "I told you not to talk about things that you are not involved in," Kagome said. Kouga looked to her, "Shut up woman!" Inu Yasha, who was looking at Rin, turned to Kouga with a growl. "Now Kouga. That is no way to speak to lady Kagome," Miroku said with a smirk. Inu Yasha looked at Miroku. "Yes Kouga. It is very rude," Shippo added. "I do feel insulted now Kouga," Kagome added, while putting a finger to her chin and winking to Miroku and Shippo. Kouga looked at her, "Kagome? Is that you?" "Yes Kouga," she said and she looked back to him. He was immediately at her side and pushed Inu Yasha out of the way. He took Kagome's hands in his and looked into her eyes. "Kagome. you are still my woman right?" he asked. His eyes getting watery and glistening in the sun. Everyone sweat-dropped, including those who had never seen Kouga around Kagome. They all looked from Kagome to Kouga to Inu Yasha. Inu Yasha was becoming red eyed again. He growled at Kouga. "Of course not Kouga. I never was and never will be," Kagome said truthfully and pulled her hands loose and went behind Inu Yasha, whose eyes were back to normal. Kouga looked utterly surprised. 'So Inu Yasha did have Kagome in his arms. Damn it!' he yelled to himself. He turned around to the rest, "I will be leaving now," with that said he was gone. Kagome looked back up to Inu Yasha and smiled. He looked down to her with a sort of hurt look. 'He must be upset over what Kouga said to me and about my injury, but I wonder.' Kagome thought. Kagome looked to Shippo who was behind everyone else. No one was looking at him, they were all looking at her and Inu Yasha.
Instead of seeing the Kit she was used to, she saw a fox demon of about 19. He had orange-brown hair and kept it loosely tied back, his former paw feet were now normal, he still had his fangs only they were bigger, he had clawed hands instead of his paw ones, he had his bright green eyes, his ears were still pointed and his tail resembled a long regular fox tail instead of his little bushy one. His clothes changed into an outfit resembling Sesshomaru's only it was black with white details instead of red and with no armor and no white tail. He was very handsome.
Inu Yasha looked to where she was fixated to and almost fell over. Everyone turned to look at Shippo. Rin and Heisei were laughing to themselves.
"What are you all looking at? Did you all shrink or something?" Shippo said with an innocent look. Truth be told he was about three inches taller than Inu Yasha, more towards Sesshomaru's height.
"No Shippo. We didn't shrink," Kiade said with a laugh.
"Then?" Shippo looked down at himself. He was surprised indeed, but he was also happy.
"You know squirt. you don't look half bad," Inu Yasha commented. 'Yeah. your right Inu Yasha,' Heisei said to herself. "What? Why you!" Shippo held out a fist at Inu Yasha. "Just forget it Shippo. It's probably the only complement you'll get from him," Miroku said. "I suppose," he said, eyeing Inu Yasha, and sat down. Heisei and Rin went over to sit with Shippo. Kilala came over and sat down, too. Kagome went and picked up her pack, but winced when she bent over. She had forgot about her wound. Inu Yasha watched her. He still felt guilty for her wound, no matter what anybody said. He watched her not saying a word, but with a look of concern, love and care. "Kagome, can you not heal that like you did Sango?" Kiade asked worriedly, noting her wound. "No Kiade. It doesn't work that way. I can heal others, but not myself," she said calmly. "Than come here," Kiade said. She pulled some bandages out of nowhere. She gave them to Kagome and smiled. Kagome smiled back, 'She looks so different now since she is younger.' "Thank you Kiade," she said. She turned back to the way she was going the first time, back to the village. "I will return to the village and get supplies. I trust you can find something to eat?" she asked looking to Miroku and Sango. "Of course we can Kagome," Sango said with a smile. "Good. I'll be back tomorrow. You all can camp here for the night and.," she was interrupted before she got to finish. "Ooo no you don't. I'm going with you," Inu Yasha said. Kagome looked to him with a puzzled look. "First your injured," Inu Yasha said while counting on his fingers, "and second not after what happened just now." "Ok than Inu Yasha. We'll be back tomorrow," she said to everyone with a smile and waved goodbye. She turned and left with Inu Yasha at her side. -------- ------------- ------------ ---------
