PREVIOUS CHAPTER REVIEW:

"Inuyasha, Inuyasha we have to stop. Come on baby change back, for me," Kagome pleaded with a soft voice. Her eyes pleaded with his to change back. She knew if he didn't before Sango and Miroku got here, he might think they wanted to hurt her. And hurt them instead. "Sango didn't need any kind of stress like this right now," she thought to herself.

The softness in her voice soothed his soul, and soon he was back to his normal self. His demon blood fought to take control again as he seen what he was doing. He started to continue, again. (A/N: he doesn't remember what he does in his demon form.) He heard Sango and Miroku's voices; they seemed to be warning Inuyasha and Kagome that they were coming close to finding them.

Inuyasha grumbled as he realized he had to stop what he was doing. He leaned down with his face close to Kagomes as he growled baring his teeth.

Kagome growled back at him, biting his bottom lip, drawing blood, even though she was in human form now.

The kiss enticed him, making it especially hard for him to fight off his demon side.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two humans had actually come upon Inuyasha and Kagome right after Kagome had changed back. They had noticed what they had been doing, and they both felt bad for interrupting. But if they didn't get started then they wouldn't make it to the land where Kouga and his wolf pack were, before nightfall.

Sango and Miroku watched in embarrassment and in amazement at how easily Kagomes soft words had changed Inuyasha back. Normally she would have had to say, "Sit boy". They knew that they couldn't just walk out into the open until he had changed back, or else he would have attackedthem in protection of Kagome and the pup.

Sango watched in amazement and in a little embarrassment as she realized how hard it was for Inuyasha to fight off wanting to let his demon side take back over and just ignore the calls of them.

Miroku got kind of jealous, as he watched Sango eyeing the two. "Who's the pervert now," He asked softly as to not alarm Inuyasha that they were closer than they had thought. He was tapping his finger on the side of his other arm.

Sango blushed as she realized she had been caught. She had sensed the jealous tone in Miroku's voice. "Oh don't get so jealous Miroku. I let the day go that you had seen Kagome naked and rolling around, after you had been watching her for five minutes," She said with a smirk.

"You did not. You hit me," Miroku pouted.

"I did too," she kissed him softly.

His own desires rose.

"No," she said in response to him grabbing her. "We don't have time," she giggled as she watched him pout.

"I'll make it quick," he wined.

"No," she struggled to get out of his grasp before he got worse.

In doing so she fell out of the bushes onto the ground in the open field.

Inuyasha jumped up as he saw Sango fall out of the bushes onto the ground.

Kagome gasped loud as he slid out of her. He hadn't wanted him to have to do that, especially not so fast. It had actually hurt a good bit.

He quickly pulled on his hakama, and tied them. "Damn snoopers," he thought to himself.

Miroku stepped out of the bushes. "Sorry if we interrupted anything," Miroku chuckled. Sango waved from the ground a little embarrassed. She had landed on her butt, so she wasn't worried too much about the baby. It had probably gotten a good shake, but that was it. Her butt was what was sore.

He knelt down, covering Kagome with his haori. She was almost in tears. "What's wrong?" he asked her a little worried.

"Nothing she stood up with his haori wrapped around her," the pain had started to go away.

Inuyasha just grumbled more.

Miroku turned the other direction as Kagome slipped her clothes back on. He laughed to himself, as he seen the nail marks on Inuyasha's back. "Kagome must have really been enjoying herself," he smirked to himself. He bent down to help Sango up, and make sure she was ok.

She too had noticed the claw marks. "Kagome has some animal in her too, it seems," she said quietly to Miroku. She giggled.

"Damnit," she growled. Inuyasha turned around to help Kagome get her shirt on. She was defiantly going to have to go get some loser fitting clothes here before too long.

"Caught again," she blushed at Inuyasha who blushed, but smirked back at her. "He would have to ask her what had happened after he changed. To change back like that it must not have been something too bad." He thought.

"We need to get back to the village and get everything ready to go east," Sango replied as all four walked in quiet for a good bit. All four were blushing at what had occurred.

"Why east," Inuyasha asked.

"We are going to tell Kouga of us going to kill Naraku. They could be of some help as a distraction for Kaguara," Kagome answered Inuyasha.

"No, way. " Inuyasha growled. "I will not travel with wolf boy, just to have him along as a distraction," Inuyasha pouted.

Kagome played with his ears, scratching them gently. "Kagome stop that, it's hard enough as is," Inuyasha growled low at her.

"So I've noticed," Kagome giggled.

Inuyasha turned one hundred shades of red. "You know what I mean, and its all your fault," he lightly kissed her on the cheek.

Sesshoumaru had waited until the others were gone before he moved from his hiding place. He walked slowly back to his castle. His face was flushed. He had seen how much desire and dominance Kagomes youkai blood had over her. He watched in amazement as her growl brought Inuyasha's demon blood out, changing him. At first it had looked like she was mad enough to kill even him, but her mood changed. The youkai blood was taking control as well as her instincts.

"Damn I thought that after I found out her secret, I wouldn't be attracted to her anymore. But it attracts me more now to finally realize what my body had known all along. It was forbidden to even think of stealing another youkais' mate, but Inuyasha wasn't technically a youkai is he?" Sesshoumaru continued to walk. He had to calm down before he could go around anyone.

He put the scene he had just watched out of his mind, and started to think about the one before it. "She's a youkai, and just not any youkai, she possesses the strength and the blood like the Ancient Ones. Could she be an offspring of one of them? But the Ancient Ones had been killed over a century ago. She's no older than 17. But how does she possess the blood and strength that's so similar to theirs." He thought out loud.

The four was back at the village before noon. They all ate dinner, and grabbed the stuff they needed. They headed off with everyone walking. Kirara was sitting on Sango's shoulder, but she swapped back and forth between Sango and Miroku the whole time.

Kagomes' feet had been killing her. Sango had let her ride Kirara for a while, but Kagome felt bad for the others and got off. Kirara was probably tired too anyways. Kagome had watched as Kirara had transformed again, and lep up on Sango's shoulders. Miroku had felt sorry for Sango eventually, and had made Kirara get on his shoulder. After awhile Kagome had started to fall behind again. Her legs were killing her.

Inuyasha had mumbled something about, "Damn humans, always hard headed. All this walking can't be good for the pup," as he slowed down to pick Kagome up. She rode on his back.

They had gotten only halfway to where Kouga and his wolves were suppose to be at, before they heard a growling coming from Inuyasha. "Damn, mutt," Is all Kagome got out of him before he set her down on the ground.

Kagome looked at Inuyasha then turned to see a dust cloud coming towards them. She knew instantly what was wrong with him. She smirked giving him a kiss on the nose, and a reassuring glance that she wasn't going anywhere.

Not even 10 seconds after Kagome had kissed Inuyashas' cheek, Kouga was standing in front of Kagome with her hand in his. Kagome smiled and gently pulled her hand away.

Inuyasha was growling incredibly loud. He watched as Kagome pulled her hand away, and he felt a little better.

"My fare Kagome, how have you been," Kouga smiled as he took her hand again, and kissed it. He noticed that her scent was different, but paid no attention to it.

Inuyasha growled again, as he put his hand on Kagomes stomach and lightly slid her behind him.

Kouga seemed angered by this. "I see you haven't changed a bit dog face," Kouga smirked as he looked behind Inuyasha at Kagome.

Inuyasha didn't budge. He just let out one of his seldom, "Fehs."

"Well Kagome I see he hasn't changed, just a little more protective than usual," Kouga mused. "So was it my imagination, or were you headed in my direction."

Sango and Miroku just staid to the side, already knowing what was going to happen.

Sango suddenly felt weak. "I need to sit down," she said moments before passing out.

Miroku had only been an inch away from her; lucky he was able to catch her before she hit the ground. Miroku picked Sango up; he wasn't quiet as strong as Inuyasha, and Sango did start to get heavier. Kirara transformed, allowing Miroku to sit Sango down on her back, and him too.

"We need to camp now," Miroku said to Inuyasha.

"You can camp under the protection of my pack," Kouga felt sorry for the young demon slayer. "Follow me," he called after Miroku as he spun around Inuyasha too quick for him to act, and then grabbed Kagome, putting her on his back.

Inuyasha growled, about to take off after the wolf-demon, when Miroku laid his hand on his shoulder.

"She's fine. She won't let him do anything inappropriate to her. Just follow behind him, you're going to need the rest from carrying her anyway."

Inuyasha was glad for the break, but he didn't want that mutt's hands on his Kagome. So he followed close behind them, and kept an eye out.

By the time they reached Kouga's packed it had been almost an hour past nightfall. Miroku wrapped Sango up in the blanket that they had brought from the village. He sat down by the fire with her in his arms. Kirara nuzzled up in the blanket about to where Sango's stomach was. He lightly brushed the hair out of her face.

She groaned lightly, as she sifted in the blanket, and her eyes opened slowly. She noticed her surroundings, and then looked at Miroku who had had a relieved look on his face.

"You gave me quite the scare there," Miroku smiled. "I've fought demons that are ten times the size of me, and don't think that they had me half as scared as you did just then." He kissed her head lightly.

She smiled. "What happened," she said lightly. Her voice hadn't quite come back to her.

"You were talking about you needed to sit down, and the next thing I know you fainted," Miroku explained.

Sango sat there thinking, when both her and Miroku's attention was diverted by a very loud, "SIT BOY."

"Here we go again," Miroku sighed as he cuddled closer to Sango.

Inuyasha had caught up to Kouga as soon as they hit the village. As soon as he had sat Kagome down, Inuyasha was by her side.

"Damnit, dog boy, can't I have five minutes alone with my Kagome," Kouga had growled.

Inuyasha had had enough. "You dumbass, can't you smell her scent."

"Yea she smells a little like you, but of course you have been holding her. Why?"

Kagome around and showed Kouga the mark on the back of her shoulder.

"What the.." Kouga jumped back a little.

"But Kagome, why?" Kouga looked hurt.

Kagome couldn't stand to have hurt anyone; she for one had known what it felt like to be betrayed by the one you loved. She ran off to the side, and started to cry.

"Now look what you have done, you've gone and upset her," Inuyasha growled as he slapped Kouga on the back of his head.

Kouga growled, and jumped in Inuyasha's face.

Inuyasha ignored him, walking over to Kagome.

"Are you ok," he put his hands on her shoulders, and squeezed gently.

"Yes," she replied. She turned around to face Kouga again. He had a hurt look on his face. "I'm sorry Kouga but I love Inuyasha. That's all I can say," she started to cry again.

Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her, and went to kiss her neck. But she pulled away. "What the hell?" he grumbled.

Kouga smiled, "See even your own mate pulls away from you, dog face."

Inuyasha was furious. He was also hurt, she had pulled away from him again. That was the third time in two days. He growled loudly at Kouga and went to slap him.

"SIT BOY," Kagome command, and right on cue Inuyasha landed face down in the dirt.

"Haha. She still has you on ball and chain, I see," Kouga laughed amusingly.

Once the spell wore off, Inuyasha felt as though Kagome had just stuck a knife in his back. He stormed off in the direction of the campfire that Miroku and Sango were sitting around. As he reached it, he didn't stop. He kept going.

"Kouga, Inuyasha is my mate, and you will respect him as that. When you disrespect my mate, it is a form of disrespecting me. I cannot change my decision, and I will not. You are a very good friend, and I hope this wont effect our friendship. We came here to ally with you. We are going to make an end to Naraku. We are tired of his attacks on us and our friends. If you do not wish to ally then we can leave," Kagome said sternly. She was about to cry at Inuyasha leaving her side with such a hurtful face on him.

Kouga was speechless. This was the first time she had ever scolded him. What was going on? "Let's sit down and discus this over something to eat," Kouga replied. He was in shock.

Kouga headed towards the campfire.

"I'll be there in a minute, I need to get Inuyasha," Kagome called over her shoulder as she headed in the same direction as Inuyasha.

Kouga sat down by the campfire grumbling.

Miroku looked at Sango, and whispered, "It's going to be along night."

Sango just nodded.

Kagome had walked for about five or ten minutes. She was starting to hurt. Her feet had swollen a lot today. She groaned. She had walked past a spring with a small waterfall, about 6 or 7 feet in the air. She would have to come back later on tonight after everyone was asleep to bathe, and soak her feet. She was tiring out really quick.

"Inuyasha," Kagome called out for the hundredth time. "Inuyasha please, I'm starting to hurt. I'm sorry. Please come out."

Inuyasha sat in the tree above her. He had been watching her the whole time, and he knew she was getting tired, and hurting. "Feh," is all he said.

Kagome looked up in the tree, her eyes were filled with tears. "Inuyasha," she called.

"Yea what do you want," his voice was harsh and painful to her ears.

Kagome was hurt by the sound in his voice. "I was just looking for you to get you to go back with me," she was on the verge of tears.

"I'll came back when I'm ready to no sooner," He growled. He had smelt her tears, but she had hurt him. She wasn't going to use tears to get her way this time.

"Fine," she mumbled as she turned to walk away.

He wanted to stop her but he didn't.

Kagome walked off, crying. By the time she made it back to the other's she had already cried all she could cry. Her face was stained with tears. She wiped her eyes, and went to sit down by the fire.

Kouga took one look at Kagome, and could tell she had been crying. "What has that dog face done to her now," Kouga growled to himself. It pained him to see her hurt. "She looks so tired, and worn out," Kouga thought.

"Kagome what's wrong," Sango had asked before Kouga could.

"I don't know. Just really tired. I don't know how I'm going to make it the rest of the way. I'm so tired now till I can't see straight. I guess I didn't expect the pup to have made me as heavy, and easy to give out this early." She said. She had completely forgot that Kouga didn't know she was pregnant.

Kougas eyes grew wide. "Did you just say pup," he asked.

Kagome felt her cheeks blush. "Yea sorry everything's had me so worked up that was one of the few things that I hadn't been able to mention," She said, as she couldn't bring her eyes to meet his.

Kouga just nodded. "There's another thing to add to his list of pain," Kouga thought. "So what is this dream you were telling me about earlier, and something to do with Kikyo, and Naraku."
