Locked Inside
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha so please don't barge into my house looking for him...But if you want to join me in raiding Rumiko Takahashi's house to steal the hanyou...e-mail me...Hehehe.
A/N- Please don't take the disclaimer seriously, because if I ever did steal Inuyasha I would keep him all to myself. Well this chapter is coming faster than the last one and I hope you people are happy about that. I went from sixteen reviews to twenty-two! I'm so happy! I couldn't believe the number of people that like this story. I've almost gotten more reviews for it than my eight chapter story...about to be nine. Again thanks for the wonderful reviews!
Ch.4 Stupid Lecher
Sango awoke to the sound of yelling. She sat up quickly and exited the hut.
"What were you thinking? I can't believe even you would be that stupid! This is hilarious, wait till Sango hears!" She heard Inuyasha laughing loudly. She stepped out of the hut and saw Kagome slung over Inuyasha's back, Miroku on the ground with a red face, and Inuyasha was holding on to a wooden fence laughing so hard he was ready to collapse.
"What are you two doing? Inuyasha let me have Kagome before she falls off your back. Miroku get a fire started, I need to make breakfast." Sango stated walking towards Inuyasha intent on getting Kagome. Inuyasha straitened immediately situating Kagome back into his arms safely.
"Sango I won't drop her, just make breakfast. I'm the one taking care of her." He growled out. Sango held up her hands in mock surrender and backed away.
"So what can't you wait for me to hear?" She asked hoping to get the angry hanyou's glare off herself. Inuyasha's eyes brightened at once and he once again began howling with laughter.
"Lady Sango, it really isn't important. You asked me to make a fire; at once it will be done." Miroku said rushing to get an arm full of logs. Sango stood there blinking with out response for a few moments. She shook her head in demission. 'Why worry about something to do with that lech?' She asked her self.
"Sango you have to hear this...Miroku mad a pass at a guy!" Inuyasha supplied her wondering mind. Inuyasha again burst into laughter as he walked into Kaede's hut to set with Kagome. Sango's jaw dropped and he eyes bugged. 'He did what?' Her mind screamed. Miroku came around the corner just in time to hear Inuyasha spurt the last of his embarrassing moment.
"I can explain! Please Sango don't think I lust after guys." Miroku shouted and ran over to clasp her hands in his. His face was a sight to see. Sango laughed then, not at the male comment but the look on the poor monks face.
"I saw long flowing brown hair and thought it was a fair maiden. It turned out to be one of the village's soldiers." Miroku explained his face going five more shades of red.
"I really don't care. You can go chasing monkey demons as far as I'm concerned. Just get the fire started." Sango stated pulling her hands from his grasp to look for Kaede. Sango's face went pale once she turned, a foreign hand had placed it's self on her tush and was squeezing gently. She whirled on the monk and crashed her fist over his head screaming, "Lecher!"
============================================================
Kagome woke up once more in the woods; she shrugged her shoulders and began to walk. A soft mewing distracted her, she turned to see Kirara.
"Hay girl, where is everybody? Has Inuyasha actually woke me up? Where are you going?" Kagome called as the small fire cat bounded off. Kirara had jumped off the small beaten path Kagome had been on. Kagome stepped through a small bush she had seen the cat rush through. Once Kagome stepped full out of the bush the ground she stood on turned instantly to muck. Kagome screamed as she sunk up to her neck.
"Help me! Someone, anyone please help!" She called out as she felt her self sinking slowly down. The muck had reached her chin when a long vine was slung into the slimy substance. Kagome grabbed for it and missed. The movement slid her further down. The grim had made its way well over her nose, forcing her to thrash and fight for air. In turn it made the muck go down her throat.
She was still thrashing when she felt warmth fill her and lift her out of the muck pond. She was engulfed in a bright golden light.
============================================================
A little before nightfall Inuyasha felt Kagome start thrashing and gasping for breath. He tried to hold her still but to no avail she continued flinging her arms out in a wild furry. He thought about the night before; kissing her had worked before. Would this time be the same? His face heated up at the thought of kissing her again.
"Well hell, I don't know anything else." He muttered as he leaned over and pushed his lips to hers again holding a second longer that the last time. He was so engrossed in the taste of her lips he failed to hear the swing of the bamboo door.
"Oh my gosh, Inuyasha! How dare you take advantage of her!" Sango screeched. She had walked into the hut looking for Kaede when she saw Inuyasha kissing Kagome. She had not seen Kagome thrashing how ever because Inuyasha's kiss seemed to be the remedy. Inuyasha's mouth hung open like a fish out of water; flapping open and shut as he looked for an explanation.
"It's alright Sango. Ye have nothing to fear, Inuyasha was purely soothing Lady Kagome." Kaede said flippantly as she stepped into the hut. Inuyasha was speechless as Kaede came and sat on her futon.
"What do you mean Miss Kaede? Inuyasha was kissing her while she's not aware! It's wrong, and perverted." Sango gasped at the elderly miko. Inuyasha was still positioned in his corner blushing at being caught in the act of showing affection for Kagome.
"She was thrashing and wouldn't stop. I couldn't fight off what ever was hurting her so I tried to take her mind off it. Last night the same thing happened. I could do nothing! I feel so helpless, I can't even figure out these blasted dreams! How am I expected to wake her? I can't even admit to myself I'm worried! And they expect me to fix it..." Inuyasha mumbled to himself silent sobs residing in his throat. Sango's eyes softened and she sat down abruptly.
"Lady Kagome was wailing terribly late last night and Inuyasha could no other than kiss her to calm her. It's yer feelings for her Inuyasha that lifts her out of the darkness. Try to heed the messages in yer dreams, they will set her free." Kaede said as she mixed some herbs and greens to sooth a hurt villager. She exited out of the hut frowning.
"I'm sorry for thinking your intentions were impure. I didn't know. Inuyasha do you think you'll be able to help her soon? I can't stand to see the two of you like this. Kagome almost dead looking and you grieving and upset. Miroku and I have both heard you whimpering in your sleep. Can we help at all?" Sango asked laying a soft hand on his shoulder. Inuyasha let a few tears slip out of his honey colored orbs as he tried to regain his voice.
"Sango tell me what it means when someone puts their hands on your chest and starts smiling like there's no tomorrow? I don't know what she's trying to tell me but it's killing me. I don't think I can stand to see her saddened face in my dreams anymore." Inuyasha replied as he rocked Kagome in his arms.
"Maybe it's what's behind your chest? Kaede said it had to do with feelings so maybe she's reaching to your heart? Try to get some sleep Inuyasha; I can see you're not up for anymore this day. Just think about what I said, what Kaede said? I'm hoping to talk to that lech tonight." Sango said as she exited the small room. ============================================================
Miroku had walked in the woods most of the day. He was hoping to get a break from the slaps of an angered demon slayer. How come he was cursed to be attracted to her soft round butt? Did one man really deserve to be hit so many times a lifetime? He heard a rustle in a near by bush and stood and readied his cursed hand.
"Miroku? Please put that hand down I pose no threat unless you persist in groping me." He heard Sango's melodic voice float through the small clearing. She emerged from the bush and smiled.
"Ah Lady Sango! I did not see you there. Is there need of me in the village?" he asked casually. Sango walked to the spot he had once been setting and plopped down with a thump. She said nothing but patted the ground beside her signaling him to set with her.
"Lady Sango, is there something wrong? You seem melancholy, has something happened to Lady Kagome?" Miroku asked as he sat where she directed him. He thought about touching a hand to her round behind but thought this was really not the place.
"Inuyasha has found a way to quiet Kagome's thrashing. He kissed her and she stopped like he was an instant drug. I only wonder if every time a man does that to a woman if it has the same effect... I myself have never had the time to truly be with a man before, I have no clue how it would feel." Sango mused more to herself than to the man beside her. She was suddenly very aware of the hand that cupped her cheek.
"Lady Sango, in the case of kissing it's best when someone is aware of it. Lady Kagome doesn't even know Inuyasha is kissing her, it's just the reaction her soul has to his." Miroku whispered as he turned Sango to face him. His face was covered in a light blush as he brought their lips to a soft kiss. Sango's eyes widened and her face went the color of her own blood. Miroku pulled back and smiled a soft non-perverted smile.
"That is what it feels like to be kissed Lady Sango; you tell me if it soothes you." Miroku said as he gazed at the bright twinkling stars. Sango touched a finger to her lips and smiled. He had just kissed her! The one she secretly longed for had just kissed her!
"It is very soothing, but to tell you the truth I don't think anyone could sooth me as well as you have sir monk." Sango said as she rested her head on his shoulder. He smiled so big his teeth would have blinded you had the sun been out. He felt the slight fall and rise of Sango's chest on his right arm signaling she was asleep. He sighed and gently placed her on the ground.
Miroku stood and stretched, he bent down and placed a hand under Sango's knees and her neck. He hoisted her into his arms and made the trek to the village. He walked into Kaede's small hut and laid Sango in her blankets. The small futon had been laid out before Kaede had retired. Inuyasha sat in the back corner of the room with Kagome nestled in his lap.
"What did you do? Sango was fine when she left." Inuyasha grunted not bothering to look up. He was holding Kagome like one did a small child; gently yet protectively and tenderly. He looked worn and broken, like he had finally truly lost to his brother or Naraku, there were faint trails of tears on his sculpted face.
"She let me kiss her...She told me about you then she actually let me kiss her. I own you Inuyasha, she trusted me enough to let me kiss her." Miroku responded in a daze. He laid down on his own futon and prayed to Buddha that Sango didn't get angry for it in the morning. He shut his eyes not seeing the bewildered look on Inuyasha's face.
'What does he owe me? I didn't tell Sango that he had feelings for her.' Inuyasha thought looking into Kagome's peaceful face. She looked like an angel lying in his lap. It was hard for him to resist the urge to mark her as his own. "Goodnight Kagome, I hope tonight better dreams seek you out." He whispered as he slipped into a light sleep.
#Dream Sequence#
Inuyasha was in a cave behind a roaring waterfall. He looked around and sniffed the air. His eyes widened in shock as he sniffed again. The cave was filled with his and Kagome's scent, the thing that puzzled him was they were intertwined. Kagome had his scent in her blood, like they had mated. He sniffed his arm and smelt her scent in his blood and all over himself.
He heard a noise at the opening of the cave and turned to look. There sat a humming Kagome with a small pup in her arms. She was singing the same song she had been in all the other dreams but this time it had a happier melody. He walked up to her fearing the worst. Once behind her he sniffed. Fear confirmed, the pup was theirs...
