It's A Dogs Life I Tell Ya – Chapter 5 : Blackout

The stormy air wafted over the shrine's night sky. Bleak senses of foreboding seeping in as well. Souta had gone off to spend the night at Shippou's house and her mother and grandfather we're at some meeting the mayor was having. Leaving Kagome alone....Well almost...
Kagome rested at her desk doing some make up work she'd neglected doing earlier. The unpleasant silence was unnerving...She couldn't call Sango or anything because she went off to a family dinner. Inuyasha lay sprawled out on her bed. His head was hanging off the bed and his tail would occasionally hit the wall. He thought the silence a bit unnerving as well.
The silence was suddenly shattered by a swift crack of thunder, which most likely had followed an unnoticed bolt of lightning. Rain began to pelt from the sky. The roof sounded like it was being hit with god's bag of marbles rather than rain..It was a very big bag.
Kagome stood and trotted over to the window. She gasped which caused Inuyasha to look up. You couldn't even see 5 feet out the window let alone the rest of the shrine grounds. "Shoot. I hope the power doesn't-"She was cut off as the light flickered and died leaving them in an uneasy darkness. Inuyasha could see fairly well but he wondered how much Kagome could. Kagome then began to make her way through well enough and was out in the hall in a manner of seconds.
She pattered down the stairs as if she could she but you could tell she couldn't by the way she gripped the railing. Clumsily she made her way to the power box and tried it. "Darn," she muttered as she found them dead as well. She grabbed the flashlight from the nearby closet (After much hitting her feet on UGO : Unidentified Grounded Objects...) and spread safe little laterns throughout the house that wouldn't be able to burn if they fell. The smelled of cinnamon and other spices when they were lit.
Inuyasha sat the whole time (In the living room) taking in the scent of the candles. Kagome came in a blankly stared at Inuyasha. "What?" She asked temporarily leaving the fact that dogs couldn't speak English behind. He kept staring. "All right why're you staring at me?" Inuyasha blushed and looked off at the wall. Well at least he would have blushed if he were human....Kagome had put her shirt in the wash and was going through the living room to get to the stairs... Mind you she WAS wearing a bra and shorts, it still made poor dog-boy go into shock. "Whatever." Kagome muttered and went upstairs.
When she came back down she had a green nightgown on. Inuyasha was still mulling over recent events (*CoughKagomeCough*) when she sat on one of the high stools in the kitchen.
She shot straight out of her seat when she heard the sound of shattering glass from upstairs. Quickly she grabbed a baseball bat out of the coat closet (Nice closet...Laterns and baseball bats..) assuming the worst. Sure no one had ever broken in to their house before, but Kagome was gonna be prepared. Unlike most dramatic horror movies girls she does NOT start walking toward the noise. Instead she waits tactfully behind the wall that was near the bottom of the stairs. She stiffened when she heard heavy footsteps. Inuyasha growled, as he stood right next to her (In doggy form!).
They heard the man reach the bottom step and star walking forward. Inuyasha leapt from his hiding place much to Kagome's surprise and pierced the skin of the mans hand with his fangs. Kagome also leapt out as if on cue and started to beat the heck outta the man with the gun. Gun?
Through the hope shot the blast... The blast of the gunshot.
