To Kohana: He did it to scare her.
To akire: I joined! ..I think. O.o
To SftbalLazerGurl: No Naraku isn't the devil, yes Kikyou is in this ficcy, and Inuyasha was kissing the feather on her lips so she could speak.
To theoryofillusion: Please read my author's note at the end of chapter two.. thanks. -sweatdrop-
To wierdlittlegoat: A decade is ten. -sweatdrop- Not one-hundred. Ten times five fifty. A hundred years would be a century.
On with the story now!

She squinted to make out his face, and she saw it looked quite young.
There was no way he could be over fifty years old.. more like nineteen,
at most. He laughed as he figured out what she was doing. "That's right
missy, I'm over fifty years old. Sixty, even."
"Over.. sixty years old?" This had to be a dream. There was no way someone
could look like that, this world or not, and be over sixty years old.
"That's right.." He licked her neck and slid his hand down her shoulder
to her hips. "..I'm seventy one years old. I've been in hell for fifty."
If her eyes could get any wider than they already are, they would have
popped out of her head. In.. hell? Did he just say he was in hell?

Black Wings
Stage Three
Whispers
Don't turn away, don't give in to the pain.
Don't try to hide though they're screaming your name.
Don't close your eyes, God knows what lies behind them.
Don't turn out the light, never sleep never die.
Fallen angels at my feet whispered voices at my ear, death before
my eyes lying next to me I fear.
She beckons me shall I give in?
Upon my end shall I begin forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to
meet the end.

"My name is Inuyasha." Maybe he really was the devil. And maybe she
really was going to die. He snickered and lifted her arm up from
under the sheets. He then held up a long claw and slowly slid it across
the top of her arm, making a trail of blood follow behind it. He licked
it up as she gasped in utter terror, and he picked his head back up letting
the blood drops seep into the bed sheets.
"Blood tastes the same.. sweet, yet bitter. Coppery.. but yours.. yours
is different. You have that rare pure blood taste in you.. are you a virgin?"
She became embarrassed and remembered she could pick her head up. She
moved her head up and bit him right on the nose. Not planning to let go
anytime soon. He growled and screamed, "Let go, you little wench!" His
wings flapped behind him in attempt to fly away, but then he remembered
Kagome was glued to the spot, and he couldn't pick her up unless he undid
the spell. He slapped her away with his claws, leaving a couple marks going
across her cheek.
"My, you're a feisty one." He got off the bed and stood up next to it.
He walked over to the side of her head and spoke in her ear. "If you do
as I say, I'll let you go. If you don't.. you're gonna' be in big trouble."
She gulped. "Will you listen?" She nodded. He smirked in victory and snapped
his fingers once.
Kagome felt like a pile of bricks was just lifted off her shoulders
and she bounced up immediately from her bed. She began screaming at him,
"I don't know who you are, or what the hell you want, but I'm not following
any of your dumb orders!" She ran downstairs and he sighed.
"I knew this was going to happen.." He slowly sunk into the floor, coming
out in her kitchen which she was headed for. As soon as she got into the
room she screamed, "How the hell did you get down here?!" He just laughed
as she ran into her garage, and coming back out in front of him. She held
a hand gun in her hands and yelled, "Come any closer and I'll shoot!"
He just laughed. She held it out firmly as he began walking even closer.
"Don't come any closer! I won't hesitate to shoot you!" He began walking
faster for the fun of it. "Shoot me, wench. See what happens."
She leaned her head over to the side, shut her eyes, and pulled the
trigger ten times. It was silent. She opened her eyes and turned her head
back around to where the man was, when she saw him standing in the same
spot, his fist held out in front of him. He turned his fist palm up, opened
his hand, then dropped every bullet to the ground one at a time, making
a cling sound.
Kagome dropped the gun down to the ground and began backing up, but
to no avail. She hit a wall. She was cornered. Inuyasha put both of his
hands to either side of her waist and touched his nose to hers. "I'm here
to help you." Now that caught her off guard. Wasn't he just trying to rape
her? Or kill her? Or something?!
"Help me?! I think you were trying to KILL me!" She screamed in his
face, and tried to escape from him from under his arm. He grabbed her as
she began thrashing around. She slammed him into the wall then ran outside
of the house, screaming for help. Inuyasha flew out of the house and slammed
Kagome into a tree behind the house where no one could see her. "Shut up
you stupid woman!" She still was screaming, and heard cars coming around
to investigate the scene.
"Grr.. I'm not a bad guy! Shut UP!" She took in a bunch of air into
her lungs to let out one of her loudest screams she could ever muster up.
Inuyasha noticed this and slammed his lips upon hers, making it impossible
to scream. She then stopped thrashing around.
Inuyasha took this opportunity to fly up onto the deck where no one
could see them. He watched as neighbors and random passer-by's came and
took a look for the person who was screaming. They found nothing, thought
it was their imaginations, then went back to their vehicles.
He currently had Kagome slammed up against the back of the deck, his
big black wings embracing her. He waited until they were all gone and spoke,
"Okay, enough playing around. As I began to say.. I'm here to help you."
"Yeah right. Help me, my ass. I know what you're up to. You're just
trying to lure me into whatever charm you may have then kill me in the
end. I've seen it on TV, buddy. And those wings? Fake." She got out of
his hold and pulled a feather off of his wings. He hissed in pain as blood
dripped to the ground below them.
She gasped and watched as blood dripped from the place she had pulled
the feather from. "There is.. no way.. they're real.." As she was gazing
at his wings, she then got a good look at his face and body.
His skin was a tannish color, with little scars that accented his muscular
body. His wings were spread out on both sides of him, which made it easier
to see his waist line. He was pretty well built, to say the least. His
violet hair drifted all the way down to an inch away from his hips, silky
and smooth as ever. When the sunlight hit it, you could see lighter tinges
of purple and black. His eyes gleamed with pure and utter seductiveness,
and a little hint of betrayal.
His right fang rested on his lower lip, while his hands rested on the
side of him. The long black trench coat he wore showed that he was a tall
person; at least six and a half feet. His dark baggy black pants prevented
her from seeing how well he was built down there, but she could guess it
was fairly well. His boots clicked against the deck as he walked over to
Kagome.
She still couldn't believe he was seventy one. No way! "This is all
a dream.. or some fancy played out trick. You can't be seventy one, those
wings can't be real, and you definitely aren't here to help me!
What exactly are you?!" She crawled away fast from him, and he just
kept walking over to her, getting closer with each step.
"If you don't even believe that I'm seventy-one, how are you going to
believe me that I'm demon-human hybrid? What do I have to do to prove to
you I'm real? That these are real?" He pointed to his wings, "And that
my intentions to help you are real?"
The demon part she could actually understand. The wings, the fangs,
the claws.. "Well.. if you have wings, you can fly." She stood up. "Pick
me up and fly me to where I direct you to." He looked at her like she was
crazy, "What if someone sees us?! I haven't told you what's going on, the
conditions of this thing, the story, anything! Let me explain, first!"
Kagome nodded her head no. "Fly me down to the shoreline or else I'm
not going to let you help me, nor will I believe you." Inuyasha growled
at this girl's stubbornness, and walked up behind her. He wrapped his arms
around her waist and they began to lift up into the air, his wings flapping.
He moved into a horizontal position, holding her by her waist as he flapped
his wings above her. She screamed in terror, "There's no way this is happening!
This is some freaky dream! Let me down, let me down!"
He laughed at her, "Believe me yet?" He noticed a crowd of people were
coming up, so he jerked his body to the right so they would miss the sight
of him. He flew up to the tip of a pine tree and rested her on a branch,
leaning up against the trunk. He sat across from her on the same branch.
"Now.. listen to me, you stupid wench. Let me introduce myself.. properly.
My name is Inuyasha Taishio, and no matter how weird this is going to sound
to you, I've been in hell for the last fifty years. I died when I was twenty
one, so that makes me seventy one. You understand me so far?" He knocked
on her head and she huffed.
"You see.. hell isn't a very nice place, dearie. Everyone wants to leave,
and I'm the.. as you could put it.. 'chosen' one, and I get a chance to
change my ways while I'm here on this earth." Kagome then inquired, "And
how does that help me?"
"I'm getting there, goddamn you're impatient!" He rolled his eyes and
began to speak again, "You see, I have a job. Or mission, as you could
put it." Kagome looked over at him with great curiosity. "I have to turn
your pathetic, miserable, terrible mortal life around. If I can do that,
I'm outta' hell. For good."
She nodded her head, kind of believing his story, kind of not. "How
did you die?" She spoke.
"None of your goddamn business. I don't need you to ask about my past
life, thank you very much." He snarled at her. She could tell that was
a 'no-go' subject for him, so she decided to drop that and ask another
question. "Conditions?"
"Basically, I have to just make you happy. When you're happy, someone
will probably come down to this pathetic little planet to get me. Then
I'll be leaving you. For good. So you don't have to worry about me staying
with you forever, it's only a temporary thing." She sighed in happiness
in that statement in her mind. He then continued, "I only had one condition..
it's not like I'm actually going to go ahead and break it. You aren't worth
it."
She glared at him and asked the obvious, "And what was the condition?"
"Just not to fall in love. I was a bit worried at first, 'cause I thought
you might be a cute stunning girl. But now that I look at you, I've got
nothing to worry about." Kagome slapped his cheek and walked down the deck
stairs to the front of the house, opening it, then locking it behind her.
She screamed out, "Go back to hell!"
He sighed and just phased through the door.
