Night of the Wolf

10 Full moon giving in to the first kill

God, he kissed me so tenderly that I couldn't stop myself from wanting more and his touch only lightened the mood even more. His hands traveled around my back pressing my breasts strongly against his firm chest. My eyes closed, my lips slightly parted and his lips ran across my jaw, down my neck and onto my shoulder where he took a sensual bite. I arched my back pressing myself closer to him.

"Kagome…" I heard him hiss in between kisses.

I responded to him softly muttering, "Nnn…Kouga."

When he pushed himself away from me was when I realized what I was doing, who I was doing it with and the mistake I said. Well in my eyes it wasn't a mistake since I was doing something that I thought I was doing with a certain someone. But as for Naraku, he gave me a look that said it all. He was sorry for leading me this way. He was sorry for leading himself this way. Perhaps he thought he could have seduced me since I was yearning so dreadfully for someone to touch me the way he did. Problem was he wasn't the one I wanted and he knew that.

He apologized and so did I. It was so confusing. What was the matter with me? How could I have lost control so easily with a stranger? It wasn't like me at all so I did what I did best. I ran. Naraku just stood there and watched me as I left unexpectedly. I wasn't sure what he did after I closed the door but in fact I didn't care what he did.

I stuffed my hands in my pockets and fiddled with whatever it was that I had in there. I walked, for I don't know how long, until I reached the park and settled myself on a bench away from everybody or anybody. I wasn't all that comfortable with what was happening in my life. I had no care in the world except to keep my job but now I have this fear of myself and the concern of anyone being massacred by little, ol' me.

I crossed one leg over the other and my arms were lifelessly in my sides. As I laid back against the bench my head fell back and I gazed up at the sky wondering if someone out there was watching over me. I couldn't evade my tears from falling. My life in one quick snap fucked up without me knowing the reason and all I cared about was Kouga. Thought about Kouga. Weep for Kouga. Dream about Kouga. Feel miserable because of Kouga. Always Kouga. Why didn't he love me?

I glanced over at the playground seeing blurry images of children laughing and giggling. My tears kept falling and I allowed a light cry slip out. I uncrossed my legs placing my arms over my lap and burying my face in them. I wanted to shout out to the world how much I loved Kouga and maybe just die in peace. Suicide was something I believed was down right wrong but now it sounded perfect. Not that I would consider it though, I'm too scared to go through with something that huge.

"Why are you crying?" A blue-colored eye little girl asked me. Her blonde curls were tied up in pigtails with pink bows and they fell to one side as she tilted her head to one side wondering what was wrong with me.

I shook my head without raising it and pleaded her nicely to leave me but she was too stubborn. I felt her small hand place itself on my shoulder and I only repeatedly myself. It was nice of her to offer me a cookie but that would never solve my problems. A cookie wasn't even close to solving my craving for blood.

I got a whiff of him and my attitude towards everything changed. My clawed hand reached for the child's shoulder, she shrieked and it made it all but better for me. A good scream always got me going. She must of fainted or just fell unconscious for catching sight of so much enriched blood that she fell on the ground with a silent thud. As I arose from the bench I roared through clenching teeth and rotated my shoulders a bit getting used to the new formation. My hair fell over my face hiding my opened mouth and white glare.

Kouga was here. And he was looking for me.

People started screaming when I howled and they ran for their very lives when they saw that I leaped to attack Kouga. Something deep within me was content that they rushed the little girl away from me or otherwise I would have clawed my way into her heart.

Kouga struggled on jumping away from my assaults but I managed to catch up to him. My body was moving on it's own while my mouth mouthed the contrary. It was too much for me and I still wasn't strong enough to manipulate my own body. At least now I saw what I was doing. It was like a magnetic field. My hands did nothing but pull themselves towards Kouga's chest. When he moved I moved with him.

I wanted to yell to Kouga to help me out here but I had no voice and I doubt he could comprehend what I was growling at him. I understood what he was trying to do and I was glad that all I could do was follow him and him only. He was leading me out of the park to somewhere where no one might witness our encounter nor somewhere where no one could get carelessly hurt.

His eyes were full of concern for me and his heart was beating at an increased pace. We reached an abandoned factory filled with rats. It was a long jog so we were both gasping for air but were ready to go in a mere of seconds.

"Kagome, listen to me, you have to control yourself. Do you realize what you just did to that poor child?"

So his visit was just to save a insignificant child? He didn't care about what was happening to me at all, did he?

My lips turned into a scowl and I was drawn to him. He caught my wrist and I kneed him below his stomach. He coughed and let go of me while I purely smirked at being able to eat him alive.

Our fighting get together went on for hours. What amazed me was that he stayed this long with me. He finally started to fight back and it encouraged me even more. I had a few scratches but it was nothing compared to what I had done to Kouga. He was limping and his right arm was no use to him no more. His shirt was totally ripped off exposing the scrapes I had done while he had his shirt on. He was bleeding from the exact hand I was.

When I tried to rip his arm off his hand met up with mine injuring us both. He was either extremely wounded because I was stronger than him or he just gave up and let me win.

I appeared behind him and cast my hand in his back. All five fingers laid their marks on him and he fell on his knees. My expression showed triumph as I rose my hand in the air ready to blow the final hit. I swished my hand at him but I hit nothing but thin air. I wanted to kill him but the inner me cried. The tears developed and eventually fell on Kouga's back. He spoke something but I didn't get to hear him so snarled in confusion.

"I'd rather die by your hands, Kagome, than in Ayame's."

Then he collapsed on the floor, landing on his stomach and head to one side. His eyes closed and I immobilized. What had I done? Someone please pinch me and say I'm dreaming because I could not have possibly killed Kouga.

When I bent down to kneel by him I looked around and realized that it was night time. I gazed at my hands and I was still the semi me but I was moving on my own. I attempted to speak but that I still couldn't do. My hand reached to stroke his cheek and my fingers traced his lips.

Kouga, why are you doing this?

What exactly is going on?

What are you hiding from me?

"You shouldn't be here."

I was swift away from Kouga's side in a pair of familiar arms. I shifted trying to escape but I was too weak. Naraku ascended out of the factory and away as fast as possible.

"I know what I'm telling you so don't say anything about it," he then chuckled thinking that that could have lighten up my mood, "sorry, I forgot you couldn't speak. Ayame's close and you don't want to mess with her. At least not now."

He ran as far from Kouga as achievable. We weren't in town anymore but more like in a forest. He bounded on branch to branch carrying me in his arms protectively until I recovered my strength, which didn't take long, and I pushed myself away from him causing me to fall and smack myself against a duo of trees. When I landed I was ready to run back to Kouga. I was faster than Naraku, this time, and I didn't dare stop to allow him to catch up to me or even to let Ayame catch up to Kouga.

"Kagome! No, listen to me!"

But I was already too far away from his reach. This was an opportunity to get Kouga back and I wasn't on letting it pass. Besides, Kouga was seriously injured because of me and I was the only one who could be near him on his time of need.

Abruptly I gained speed. I guess running on all fours beats two.

All fours?

I stopped and tried to look at myself but all I saw were two paws on the ground. They were my paws.

"Kagome, you're a--"

"Wolf. A full one at that."

It was Sango followed by Miroku. They had bumped into me and managed to stop me only because they weren't themselves.

They were exactly like me, they were wolves. I recognized them by their scents. I understood what they told me but they couldn't hear a word I said. I thought my voice was only affected by my partially wolf form but now I came to know it affected me even though I became stronger.

Sure, I was astonished by them. Who would of thought Sango and the mysterious Miroku were wolves themselves. I really didn't know anything about this second world. Everyone I know is one, the only person left is my bos and to have him suddenly appear to be a chunky wolf would lighten things up for me.

I would ask questions later as for now my number one priory was Kouga.

"Kagome, no!"

My small chat with Sango and Miroku managed Naraku to catch up and he stopped me as he wrapped his arms around me, landing on me.

"Well? Aren't you going to help me out here? She isn't a pup you know," Naraku stated to both Sango and Miroku.

They changed into their human forms, well only Miroku did. He didn't feel so awkward at being naked, but I'm glad Sango thought differently. For as Naraku, he elbowed Miroku hinting him that it would be best if he slipped into something much more suitable.

"Thanks. If I were a female then you can walk around however you please, but thing is I'm no female."

Miroku snorted at the comment and was back to his normal self, if that's even considered normal. I was still struggling while they talked and that Miroku held onto my tail with his mouth though it still wasn't enough to hold me down.

Sango growled at Miroku advising him to take the situation a bit more seriously since him having my tail in his mouth wasn't helping at all.

"Couldn't help myself."

This time he sank his mouth on my hind leg while Sango held me by my shoulder. Naraku was deeply confused by my transformation. He thought that I wasn't able to turn into a wolf and if I did I was to remain this way for good but it wasn't confirmed.

"It seems the light of the full moon is the one which gives her her strength," Miroku said, "but she won't remain this way, though. Not unless she knows how to allege back. But my guess is she doesn't know and it's more like a curse since her aurora is merged with something peculiar."

I don't care!

I shouted as if they could actually hear me.

Good thing was that I was much stronger and I won't turn all evil wolf-like and I am able to have control over me. Bad thing was that I could remain like this forever if I don't find a way to change myself back. One this is for sure, if I want things right again…I would have to execute Ayame. And the sooner the better.

-Kianna Chan-

A/N: This chapter was stuck in my head so I had to write it down. It took me a while, not sure why. I didn't write the Kagome and Naraku lemon since most of you decided it was best that she doesn't. I'm glad you gave me your opinions about it since I wasn't sure myself and there's so many ways that I could end each chapter but I have to end it a certain way in order for things to work.

Thanks to you all since you guys are the ones whom help me out here. -Hugs and kisses-
