Chapter12: Tears of Guilt on the New Moon, Strange Changes.
By InuShemeeko
Once Sango had bandaged the wounds on Kagome's shoulders. Kagome made her way to an unconscious Inuyasha, who lay beneath a large oak tree. They all had managed to pry both Inuyasha and Shimiko from the ground.
Kagome knelt down gently beside of Inuyasha and tenderly cleaned the wound on his arms and chest. The large gash in his side had all ready been taken care of. A small moan escaped from Inuyasha's lips as Kagome continued to clean his wounds. He then slowly opened his golden orbs, blinking a few times to clear his blurry vision.
"Ka..go...me?"
Kagome smiled softly down at Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, you're awake. How are you feeling?"
Inuyasha grumbled.
"Like someone trampled me into the ground."
Kagome widened her eyes in surprise. Inuyasha then smirked at Kagome.
"Oh wait a minute someone did trample me into the ground. YOU!"
Kagome glared back at him.
"Hey it was for your own good!"
******************************************
Shimiko watched the scene between Inuyasha and Kagome. The sleeves of Kagome's uniform had been removed so then the wounds on her shoulders could be cleaned. Shimiko looked down at her clawed hands, which were still slightly stained with Kagome blood. She also knew that Inuyasha's blood was mixed in with her and Kagome's. Most of her serious wounds had already been taken care of. However, Shimiko had refused to speak to any of them. It hurt bad enough to even look at them if she were to speak to them her voice would end up betraying her, and the last thing she wanted them to see was her weak side.
'How can they stand to look at me? They all act as if nothing happen.'
Sadness reflected in her eyes as she turned away, from Inuyasha and Kagome. The smell of her own blood and that of Inuyasha's was starting to fade away. Which seemed a little strange to Shimiko, however, the scent of Kagome's remained burned into her nose. Having the need to try and cleanse herself Shimiko headed off to a near by river to be alone.
******************************
Kagome watched as Inuyasha flinched.
"Inuyasha, what is it?"
"It's getting late, Kagome. I was hoping to be farer away from the forest. I really didn't want to be out in the open tonight."
Kagome gasped. "That's right tonight is the night of the new moon."
Concern and irritation coated Inuyasha words when he spoke.
"I can already feel my senses weakening. I'll be as helpless as that wander that is traveling with Shimiko and Kiyoshi. I can't even see why Shimiko let him travel with them."
Inuyasha's glaze then fell on Kagome's shoulder.
"Hey, how are you feeling? You were hurt pretty bad today too you know."
Kagome's right hand reached up at touched her left shoulder.
"Oh yeah, their alright. They are a little sore but they'll be alright."
Kagome gave Inuyasha a small smile.
'There she goes again putting on a brave face. She's got to be in pain. There was so much blood I thought for sure I was going to lose her.'
The sky was staring to grow dark and a dozen stars shone in the sky like diamonds. Kagome looked up at the sky and sighed.
"Isn't it just beautiful Inuyasha?"
"It sure is Kagome."
Inuyasha however, wasn't staring up at the stars but at Kagome herself. He then gently embraced Kagome into his arms. Kagome's deep chocolate eyes, held with Inuyasha's bright amber gems. His voice was soft as he spoke to her.
"Kagome, today when my demon half took over, I felt nothing but the lust for blood, and the kill. But when I saw you laying there bleeding I thought I was going to lose you."
Kagome's eyes were now rimmed with tears.
"Inuyasha." Her voice caught in her throat as she spoke.
A deep sadness shone in Inuyasha's golden eyes as he looked at Kagome.
"If I were to ever lose you. I don't know what I would ever do."
Suddenly before Kagome's eyes, Inuyasha's silver-white hair started to darken. His dog-ears faded away, as well as his claws and fangs. Inuyasha's keen golden eyes, darken and became dark pools of chocolate. Becoming a mirroring reflection of Kagome's own chocolate pools.
Inuyasha pulled Kagome closer to him, placing his nose closer to Kagome's neck, pulling in her flowery scent. Inuyasha placed his chin on Kagome's head as she lay against his chest. He sighed with contentment, as he and Kagome stared at the stars.
'When I'm like this, I feel so many human emotions; that I can't stop myself. She has never lost faith in me not once, she's always been there for me.'
Inuyasha sighed.
'So why is it, that I can never do the same for her? Why do I push her away? I'm I that afraid to show her that I care for her? That deep down inside I truly do love her?'
Kagome watched as a hurt look passed across Inuyasha's face.
"Inuyasha, what is it what's wrong?"
"Kagome, I'm sorry if I've hurt you. I never meant to hurt you at all. I guess that's why I push you away sometimes. I hate to see you in pain."
"Inuyasha, you never...."
Kagome's words were cut off as Inuyasha's lips pressed firmly against her's stealing her breath away.
*****************************
Shimiko was up to her neck in water, as she swam trying to erase the smell of Kagome's blood from her body. Most of the time unlike Inuyasha, she could control the demon blood that ran through her body. But today she had lost control of it. As she reached the shoreline, Shimiko felt tears slide down her cheeks. The sun had already faded into the horizon, when a soft voice spoke from behind her.
"Shimiko, are you okay?"
What startled Kiyoshi the most was when Shimiko turned to face him. Was instead of two bright keen amber-green eyes staring back at him. Two sad violet-brown eyes shone back at him. The half-demon that Kiyoshi had grown fond of had been replaced by a human. Kiyoshi blinked his eyes a few times.
"Shimiko, what happen? Tonight is the night of the new moon, not the full moon. I don't understand."
Shimiko turned her face away from Kiyoshi.
"Feh. You're not the only one."
Stars sparkled above them as Kiyoshi made his way toward Shimiko and sat down.
"You know, no one is blaming you for what happened."
A breeze caught Shimiko's long black hair and whipped it in front of her face. A hidden hurt could be seen making its way, to the surface of her eyes.
"Well they should be blaming me."
Shimiko turned away from Kiyoshi.
"I almost killed her. I almost killed Kagome."
Kiyoshi touched her softly on the shoulders.
"But you didn't kill her, and I know what you're thinking and it has nothing to do with Inuyasha."
Shimiko shook her head.
"No you're wrong if he hadn't stopped me..I might have...."
Kiyoshi reached up and placed two fingers to her mouth stopping her words. He then shook his head lightly.
"Then you would have stopped yourself."
Shimiko looked down at her lap.
"I don't know if I would have or not? I've tried to figure out what happened in the cave. But there's nothing there. I don't have any memory of anything after I entered the cave."
Kiyoshi pulled Shimiko into his lap. Wrapping his arms around her. In return Shimiko laid her cheek against his chest. Her voiced turned soft as she spoke.
"If I have no memory of what happened, I'm sure Inuyasha doesn't either."
Kiyoshi kissed the top of Shimiko's head, as he laid back on the ground.
"We should probably be heading back to camp. The others are probably getting worried about us."
Shimiko held onto Kiyoshi tighter.
"Not just yet. Let's stay here a little longer."
Kiyoshi then notice Shimiko shiver.
"Are you cold? Here take this."
Kiyoshi reached over and lifted up the blanket he had brought with him. Kiyoshi then wrapped both Shimiko and himself inside of it. Shimiko glazed up at Kiyoshi and placed a gentle kiss upon his lips. In return they both kissed until they both were wrapped up in each other's passionate embraces.
Shimiko drifted off to sleep with a smile on her lips as she lay against Kiyoshi's chest.
***********************************
Kagome gently leaned into the kiss. All of her senses were tingling from the kiss she was receiving from Inuyasha. She then pulled gently away from Inuyasha she panted.
"Inu...yasha, I need to catch my breath."
Kagome then noticed that Inuyasha was panting as well.
"Sorry, Kagome I don't know what came over me."
Kagome just smiled as she cuddled into Inuyasha's lap. Inuyasha could feel the heat rising in his cheeks he was blushing. However, he could also heat rising some where else as well.
"Um..Kagome what are you doing? Kagome?"
As he stared at Kagome he soon realized that she had fell a sleep in his lap. Her head lay against his chest. Her breathing was soft and steady.
'She fell asleep. Kagome felt asleep against me.'
Inuyasha gently rubbed the back of her neck with his human hand. Causing Kagome to moan slightly in pleasure. Inuyasha sat there pulling in her scent when sleep started to pull at his senses. His eyes blinked open when he heard Kagome mumble softly in her sleep.
"Inuyasha, no matter what. I will always love you."
He smiled lightly as he mumbled his own response as he fell into a peaceful slumber.
"I love you too Kagome."
*************************
"I knew it, I it knew Lord Inuyasha cared deeply for Lady Kagome I just knew, but what of the young hanyou Shimiko? Lord Inuyasha will have to decide on his own."
The watching figure soon hopped off to find Shimiko. However, what lay before him when he found her surprised him the most.
"My, my, my Shimiko seems to be moving faster then Lord Inuyasha."
He crept a little closer for a better look. What he saw up close made his eyes widen. Kiyoshi's school uniform top was unbuttoned. Revealing a slightly muscular chest. Shimiko's forest green haori top was thrown aside. However, both figures were wrapped well inside of the blue blanket Kiyoshi had brought.
"Why, Myoga I didn't know you had a fondness for others mates."
Myoga jumped and turned to see whom the soft voice had belonged too.
"Lord Yashiro, what a nice surprise."
Yashiro glanced quickly over to his sister and then turned away.
"Yes indeed it is I'm sure."
Yashiro's bronze eyes looked down at Myoga as the light wind blew his white and bronzed streaked hair.
"As you can see Myoga. Shimiko has completed her mating with Kiyoshi."
"But Shire what about the cave?"
"What might have happened or did not happen will not be mention after this moment. Understand?"
Myoga nodded, "Yes my lord."
"For neither my younger sister, nor Inuyasha has any memory of what happened. When the time is right they will remember and then choices will have to be made unless fate decides to step in and from what I have seen it all ready has."
