My Reflection
Chapter 5: The Hot Spring
InuYasha walked for a good twenty minutes when he finally came out into a clearing. There were large boulders surrounding the edge of a very large hot spring.
"A hot spring…" InuYasha breathed.
"Beautiful isn't it?" said a familiar voice.
Looking up, InuYasha saw Shadow sitting on the largest rock overlooking the hot spring.
"What are the magic words Kagome?" InuYasha said, "OWWWWW!" the name on his chest glowed and burned him.
"Shadow is my name!" she said, as she began to swing her legs, "Ya better start callin me that or you're gonna be hurtin big time!" Kagome turned her head to the side to look at the trees swaying. InuYasha glared at her and then stopped the wind blowing softly through her hair, made her look…beautiful. She turned around and saw him staring at her.
"Ya know it's rude to stare!" Shadow said, sticking one finger under her eye lid and pulling down. She stuck out her tongue and made a farting sound.
InuYasha looked down and sighed, this was going to be hard. He leapt up and grabbed shadow's arms, squeezing hard.
"What are the magic words!!" he yelled.
"Ohhh, how'd you know I like it rough?" Shadow said.
InuYasha blushed and let her go. Shadow laughed and flipped backwards. She began to unzip her illng clip jacket, and then she folded it and put it on the rock.
"Whoa…what are you doing?" InuYasha said, turning around.
Shadow smiled, this was gonna be fun. She slid off her sneakers. Placing them next to her shirt, Shadow then put her belt next to the forming pile of clothes. InuYasha turned around and as shadow began to push down her pants. His eyes got wide and his nose began to bleed. He quickly flipped back around. He heard a splash and slowly looked behind him.
On the floor were all of Shadow's clothes. Looking over the edge of the rock, he saw Shadow standing up in the water, her back to him.
"Come on in InuYasha! The water's great!" Shadow said as she turned around. She was completely naked! InuYasha couldn't help but stare. Shadow chuckled and sat down in the water. She was covered up by the warm water's embrace. Only her head poked out. InuYasha smirked, this is the perfect time! I'll just plat along with her little mind games and get her to say the magic words! He pulled off his shirt and left only his pants on.
Jumping down into the water, InuYasha was engulfed in warm water and a sudden relaxation. He waded over to Shadow and sat next to her.
"I told you it was great." Shadow said as she moved her arms back and forth under the water.
InuYasha moved toward Shadow a little more. She smirked and knew what he was planning. You're not gonna get me that easily InuYasha! Shadow motioned for InuYasha to move closer. He nodded and moved closer to her, she signaled for him to turn around and he did so. Shadow began to massage InuYasha's shoulders and back. At first he jumped slightly but then began to relax. Shadow quietly grabbed the sword she had brought with her. Unsheathing it, she began to talk to InuYasha.
"So why did you follow me here?" she said, putting the sheath down.
"Isn't it obvious by now? I wanted the magic word. If im nice will you give it to me?" he said, grabbing his tetsuiga from his belt.
"Oh yes it is very obvious, but why do you act so? You're acting like you like me." Shadow said. He was going to pay for what he said. She was nothing like Kikyo! Grabbing the hilt of her sword, she then stopped massaging InuYasha.
"Ow, I think my hand cramped up. You know InuYasha, you're really stiff." She said. "I know the perfect thing that will help. Have you ever heard of Acupuncture? Well I have a special way of doing it. It goes like this!"
Shadow stood up and began to cut another word into his back. He flinched and got up. Looking behind him, he saw nothing but steam.
"I told you InuYasha, never call me Kikyo or ever compare us. Now you never will, unless you want to wake up screaming in pain." She had put on her underpants, bra, and tank. InuYasha was outraged, she had done it again.
"What did you carve on my back Kagome?" said InuYasha, wincing.
"Why don't you say to me what you said earlier? About Kikyo," She said, getting up and grabbing her stuff before jumping off the rock.
"I said Your just the littleweakling Kagomethat you were! No where near Kikyo…." InuYasha fell on the ground and screamed out in pain. She had put another spell on him! Now he couldn't say Kikyo!
"That's right little Inu! You can't say that witches name when you're comparing me to her or vice versa." Shadow said, "Now if you don't mind, I'm going back to the hut. I'm very tired. Nighty Night InuYasha!" said Shadow as she walked off towards the hut.
"Don't you walk away from me Kagome!" InuYasha said as she continued to walk. He began to walk after her.
"SIT BOY! I said goodnight!" Shadow said continuing to walk.
InuYasha stayed there face down in the water. He got up gasping for air. He got up and leapt up to the rock. Grabbing his shirt and over shirt, he jumped off towards Keade's hut.
He landed in front of Keade's hut and yelled out for Kagome, "Get out here now Kagome! I challenge you to a battle!" he waited for a few seconds and then smiled when he saw Shadow's silhouette.
The door opened up and it was Sango, not Kagome. She walked out to InuYasha and stood in front of him.
"She's gone InuYasha! I thought she was with you! Her bag is missing and everything! WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HER!" Sango said.
"Nothing! That little witch carved another spell in my back! Now I can't compare her to kiky...OOWW!!!!" he screamed.
Sango had had enough! She slapped InuYasha across the face and stared into his eyes, giving him a look that could turn even the warmest soul, cold as ice, "Why do you think she does this to you InuYasha? YOU KNOW WHY! BECAUSE SHE LOVES YOU! She can't stand to see you in pain! She loves you so much InuYasha! She put those spells on you so you would forget Kikyo and the pain she caused you! She changed her look so you wouldn't be sad whenever you looked at her! AND HOW DO YOU REPAY HER! YOU SELFISH DOG! YOU PRANCE AROUND AND WORSHIP THE GROUND KIKYO WALKS ON! YOU DON'T DESERVE HER! SHADOW IS A GREAT PERSON! YOU, YOUR JUST….JUST… A DUMB DOG!"
Sango walked back into the hut, in a huff. She turned around and looked at InuYasha.
"You are welcome back in this hut only after you've found shadow and explained your actions." Sango turned back around and closed the door, leaving InuYasha out in the cold, dark night, speechless and feeling horrible.
