Hey, everyone! I'm so sorry that I haven't updated very much, but I've been
sick, camping and in bad weather all week so I plan on giving you a good
chapter! I'm also planning on starting a new story after I finish my other
story, A New Old Friend.
The new story will probably be called Out of Control. You'll have to wait and see what it's about...{evil laughter}
Anyway, onward with the story!

Chapter 6- Inside his Heart
Kagome let go of Inuyasha to go check on Erura. She'd been attacked and almost killed by someone she was supposed to trust, after all.
"Erura. Are you okay? Your neck is bleeding..."
"Huh? It is?" Erura slowly lifted her hand to touch her neck. Kagome was right. She had five small holes were Inuyasha's claws had just started to puncture the skin, right around her jugular. "You're right." Not once had Erura taken her eyes off of Inuyasha. 'What if he attacks me again?'
Kagome crawled over to Areka's unconscious body to check for wounds. She had a small cut on the back of her head, but was unharmed.
Inuyasha spat the blood he had in his mouth from licking his claws. "Sickening..." He looked over behind him to look at Erura. She flinched slightly at his sudden movement. 'Oh no. What happened now? Did I hurt Erura and Areka?'
====================
In the bushes, Miroku and Sango had watched the whole thing, being to sore to move, not to mention attack. They had seen Inuyasha kill Riyo, lick the blood off of his claws, attack Erura and Areka and then transform back to normal. Miroku had a broken arm and Sango had a large gash on her thigh.
"Let me help you walk, Lady Sango." When Miroku saw the funny look Sango gave him, he put up his good arm in a sign of peace. "No groping this time. I promise. You are wounded. It would be unfair."
Sango grumbled and shook her hand slightly. "It's always unfair." But she accepted his help anyways.
They walked over to Kagome so should tend to their wounds.
Inuyasha slowly walked over beside Erura and crouched down beside her. He was about to pat her on the shoulder to comfort her when she flinched. "DON'T TOUCH ME!"
Everyone looked over their shoulders at them. Inuyasha looked saddened by her fear of him. He didn't understand why she was scared of him. Had he done something to her when he became a demon? He noticed the five small cuts on her neck.
"Did I-"
Erura stood up and angrily brushed the tears that were running freely down her face. "I don't want to talk about it!" With that, she leaped back into the forest towards Kaede's hut.
Everyone watched as she left, then looked back at Inuyasha, who had a curtain of hair covering his face, so they couldn't read what his emotions were.
"I'm going to wash the blood of my hands..." He stood up and walked in the opposite direction deeper into the woods.
Kilala had sensed what had happened and appeared beside Sango. "Oh, hello Kilala."
Kagome suddenly thought of something. "Sango. Can you and Kilala take Miroku and Areka back to Kaede. She can take care of them. I'm going after Inuyasha."
Sango hesitated but nodded. "Yes. I will. But do you think you should?"
"Right now, Inuyasha needs to know someone still cares for him." With that, Kagome stood up and ran in the direction Inuyasha had left in.
"Do you think she can help him, Miroku?"
"Of course she can. Kagome is the only person that can get through to Inuyasha's soft side and communicate with him. I believe she will succeed."
===================
Inuyasha had picked up Kagome's scent heading toward him before he actually saw her. 'Great. What does she want?'
"Inuyasha?"
"What?"
"Are you okay?"
"Why the hell should I not be okay? I'm not wounded, except for the place that ass-hole bit me..."
"That's not what I mean."
"What do you mean?"
"You know what I mean!"
Inuyasha hung his head and continued washing his hands in the cold river.
Kagome's eyes filled with tears. She couldn't stand seeing him in so much pain. Not physical pain, but emotional pain. He was trying hard not to let his ears droop, but failed miserably. He was also shaking slightly. Kagome blinked back the tears and sat down beside Inuyasha. He stopped for a second, then continued to wash his hands.
"Inuyasha. Open up to me. Tell me what's wrong."
"I told you, nothing's-"
"It's about Erura, isn't it?"
Silence.
"Yeah..."
"Don't worry Inuyasha. She didn't know that you weren't in control of yourself then."
"It's just-"Kagome held her breath. 'He's opening up to me!' "-the look in her eyes when I tried to comfort her, it scared me. Her eyes were pure fear and they were aimed straight at me..." A tear ran down his cheek, but he ignored it. "Kagome," He looked over to her. Her breath caught in her throat. He looked like he was about to cry. "am I really that scary when I transform?"
Kagome couldn't hold the tears anymore. She grabbed Inuyasha into a big hug and cried harder when Inuyasha sniffed and rubbed more tears off of his face.
"No matter what happens, Inuyasha, I will never leave you. Even if you transform, I will never leave you."
Inuyasha sighed and whispered something so quietly, that Kagome almost missed it. "Thank you, my Kagome."
FLUFFY!!!!! XD Anyway. I hope liked this chapter. Inuyasha basically opens up to Kagome and cries a bit. (Yeah. Like that will ever really happen...) Please review and tell me what you think. No flames about the fluffiness at the end, unless it's a good comment. Toodles...uh...yeah...
