The Demon Known as Kagome

Chapter 11

--- ------ ----- ----- Last Time ----- -------- --------- "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. ------- ------------ ------------- ----------

"Let's go Inu Yasha. I'd like to be there before nightfall," Kagome said as she picked up her pace.
"What's your hurry. we don't have to be back until tomorrow," he commented, noticing her increase in speed.
"I would at least like to make it halfway before we have to stop for the night, Inu Yasha," Kagome said truthfully.
"But why? We don't need to really go anywhere important," Inu Yasha said. He watched her walk along. She favored the side that was wounded and tried not to move it that much. He moved to the side of her that was injured.
"You should bandage that," he said while he ran his finger around the edge of her torn clothing. Kagome shivered from his touch and got the goose- bumps. She stopped and looked at him. She sighed.
"Ok. Inu Yasha," she said and she pulled out the bandages that Kiade had given her. "Could you help me?" she asked as she pulled the outer layer of her shirts off. She lifted up the second one just high enough for him to bandage the wound. "Sure Kagome," Inu Yasha said. He unraveled the bandage and wrapped it around her abdomen, making sure that the entire wound was covered. Kagome winced a few times, but let it go. Inu Yasha made sure it was tight, but kept it loose enough to allow the blood enough room to circulate. When he was done, she let her shirt go and pulled the second one back on. She looked back up to him and he was staring at her, it wasn't a cold stare, it was one full of love and concern for her. "Um. thanks," she said, a little unnerved about his staring. "Anytime," he said softly and they continued to walk through the woods. He glanced at her, but she noticed. She looked to him and picked up his hand and laced her fingers between his and smiled. He returned the smile and looked back to where they were walking to. They walked hand in hand down the grassy path. Kagome looked up to the sun and judged their distance and time from the village. She had hoped to be a bit farther than they were, but she didn't mind spending time with Inu Yasha. He didn't mind spending time with her either. They found a hot spring and decided to camp nearby. "I'm going to go take a bath," Kagome said softly to Inu Yasha who was up in a tree. "What? Ooo. ok Kagome," he said after he snapped out of his daze. She watched him, worried. She grabbed her towel and bath things and she set out to the hot spring. She wasn't worried that someone would watch her because Miroku was not there, but she was bothered by the way Inu Yasha had been dazing and staring at her. She dismissed it and got into the spring. She knew that Inu Yasha loved her and didn't mind if he watched her or anything. After Inu Yasha heard her get into the water he walked towards the hot spring. When he got there she was shampooing her hair. She heard him and turned to look at him. He showed no signs of disturbing her and jumped onto a tree branch and leaned against the trunk. He watched the stars and moon. Kagome went back to bathing and was quickly done and dressed. Inu Yasha mustn't have heard her. So she jumped up behind him and surprised him quite a bit, so much that he almost fell off the branch. "What did you do that for?" he demanded. "Nothing," she said, giggling slightly. "Inu Yasha.," she said while looking at the stars. "Yes Kagome?" he asked. "You have been thinking a lot haven't you?" she asked. "What do you mean Kagome?" he asked. He had a pretty good idea what she meant, but he wasn't certain. "You have been dazing all day long and staring at me and other things," she said as she looked at him. "Yes. I have been thinking Kagome," Inu Yasha admitted, "About becoming a demon.. and some other things." "I could tell that you were thinking about something," Kagome responded truthfully, "What other things have you been thinking about?" He blushed a bit. Obviously he didn't want to tell her. at least not yet any ways. "Just Naraku and. and you. and a few other things," he said. He looked at her and pulled her into his lap. She leaned her head against his shoulder and wrapped her tail around them both. "What about me?" she asked. He smiled, "Nothing. never mind," he said calmly. Kagome looked up at him and looked into his eyes. She could tell he was thinking about something serious. She didn't want to push and pry, so she didn't ask anymore questions. She kissed him on the lips and moved back to look at him again. He looked at her and kissed her back. They kissed and it became deeper and more loving. Kagome fixed herself so that she was looking directly at him, but he picked her up instead and moved them both back to their campsite. He set her down and looked at her. She took off the outer layer of her two shirts and moved closer to him. He moved his hands too her waist and kissed her again. Inu Yasha started moving his hands up the back of her shirt, but stopped when he got to the bandages around her stomach. Kagome looked at him and he looked saddened. He ran his claws over her bandages a few times. "Inu Yasha.," she said softly, "What's wrong?" "Nothing," he said and he looked away from her. "I see," Kagome said softly and she tilted her head down so he couldn't see her eyes, they were covered by her bangs and in shadow. Inu Yasha looked back to her and lifted her chin up to look at him. She blinked her eyes a few times because they were a tad watery. "Kagome.," he said slowly, "It isn't you." "Than what's wrong?" she asked softly. "I..," he sighed. He didn't have an answer for her, truth be told it just felt like the wrong time and place. Plus he was feeling this weird sensation in the pit of his stomach. Kagome looked back down again. She searched for something to say. She looked at his haori and counted the threads to keep her mind busy, hoping he would say something. He looked down at her again and forgot his worries. He lifted her chin again so that she could look up at him. He kissed her and she kissed him back. Inu Yasha began to glow. He continued to kiss Kagome, but she had noticed his glowing body. She parted with him and watched him glow brighter. He opened his eyes when she stopped and finally noticed that he was glowing. He looked at her and took a step back. If something was going to happen to him, he didn't want to hurt Kagome in any way. Inu Yasha closed his eyes and when he reopened them they were black. completely. Kagome gasped and took a step back and he watched her. He glowed brighter and brighter to the point that Kagome couldn't look at him anymore, she had to turn around to shield her eyes. Inu Yasha, in the course of the bright white light, grew a long white tail that was as long as his brothers, his eyes remained amber only they became darker with silver specks in them, his dog ears disappeared and were replaced with pointy demon ears on the sides of his head, his claws and canines grew, his hair became more white and a tad longer and he got a star of black on his forehead along with two black stripes on his wrists like Sesshomaru's. He also seemed to be a bit older, more around Sesshomaru's age and grew a bit, so he was more towards his brother's height, too. His clothes changed into a form of his brothers, only it was a pale icy blue, with white details not red and an armor plate on his chest, only his was dark blue with a gray trim piece and his sword was at his side still. He was now the full demon that he so longed to be.
Before the light faded, a big pulse of energy was sent out knocking Kagome out cold. The light faded and Inu Yasha was left there standing with Kagome laying on the ground in front of him. He looked at her and tilted his head. He went over to her and knelt beside hi love. Somehow her own outfit had changed. It was now a silver kimono with pale pink falling cherry blossoms and a light blue obi. She also managed to get sandals somehow.
He gently ran a finger over her cheek. He took in all of his own new features while he waited for her to wake. He continued to stroke her cheek until she started moving again.
Kagome stirred and blinked open her eyes. Her vision was off and blurry and she didn't recognize Inu Yasha. She went to punch him, but he easily moved to the side and caught her fist. "Kagome. it's me," he said softly, trying not to scare her anymore than she already was. His voice had become a little more like Sesshomaru's and it wasn't so rough.
"Inu Yasha?" she said, "Is that really you?"
"Yes," he said calmly.
"You changed into a full demon," Kagome said in a weak voice.
"Yes Kagome," he said slowly. He picked her up and kissed her forehead. Inu Yasha carried her over to her pack and picked it up as well. He continued walking back to the hot springs. Kagome noticed their change of clothes and Inu Yasha's changes as they walked. Inu Yasha carried her to the hot spring and gently set her down, laying the bag off to the side.
"Inu Yasha?" Kagome asked, sort of curious, but yet a little worried, but in a soft voice.
'He's still the same Inu Yasha. right?' she asked herself.
Inu Yasha looked down at her and removed his armor and sword. He set them aside and turned back to Kagome. Inu Yasha slowly undid Kagome's obi and set it next to his armor. He placed his hands on her shoulders and slowly slide the folds of fabric down. He stopped before they completely came off of her shoulders and he looked at her with that question in his eye. Kagome leaned up and kissed him.
Inu Yasha took that for an answer, but before he continued taking off her kimono, he leaned down and bit the junction where her neck and shoulder meet on her right side. Kagome bit her bottom lip in pain and she drew blood. Inu Yasha licked the mark. The bleeding stopped and he nuzzled his mark before standing upright again to look at Kagome.
Kagome looked at him and he kissed her, licking the blood off her bottom lip. He stopped and moved back to look at her again. She looked into his eyes and she saw complete contentment, care and happiness in his amber orbs. She looked to his right shoulder for a few seconds and than looked back at him. Inu Yasha nodded slightly and showed nothing but trust. He knew that she knew not the ways of demons and took things slowly and gently with her.

Kagome looked to his shoulder again. She slowly undid his shirt and tossed it next to his armor. She ran her hands over his chiseled abs and chest. She moved her mouth closer to his shoulder. She opened her mouth, fangs white, and bit down into his junction on his right between his shoulder and neck. As she bit his shoulder her eyes flashed red. She stopped and licked the blood from her bite. He blinked when she bit into his flesh, but showed no real pain. Kagome looked back up to him.
"Kagome.," he said softly, almost a whisper. He looked at her searching her eyes. She nodded with the look from her own orbs. He moved his hands slowly back to the fabric on her shoulders and slide her kimono the rest off the way off. He gently removed it from her and laid it aside. He kissed her again and she purred slightly. He parted and smiled slightly at her reaction.
Kagome watched his eyes the entire time, if she was to scared or excited to move or it was pure love she had for him she did not know. She untied his pants and let them fall to the ground. He picked her up and moved them both into the water of the hot spring.
They spent the rest of the night in each others company and fell asleep just out of the waters edge, with their tails wrapped around them. They were both sleeping soundly. ------ -------------- --------------- ------------
