Chapter 6
As she ran, Kagome could hear every sound around her. She could hear a gurgling sound, a nearby river, a chirping sound, the crickets in the tall grass, and a rustling sound, which was Inuyahsa behind her. Or so she thought...
"Come on Inuyasha! I know you're faster than that!" she yelled, yet when she heard no reply, she skidded to a stop.
"I...Inuyahsa?" Her ears focused on every sound that she could grasp, but none of them came close to resembling her hanyou partner. She did, however, hear a low raspy voice that DEFINITLY wasn't Inuyahsa's.
"Where do you think you're going?"
She slowly turned and only gaped at what she saw...
"Y...y...you? she stuttered. "What are you doing here?" "You're coming with me." was the intruder's only reply.
It was Kouga.
Inuyasha slowly opened his eyes and sat up. 'What the hell? What happened? I remember running after Kagome... then... what happened after that?' He rubbed his aching head.
Suddenly he remembered what he had saw before he had been knocked out.
"Kouga!" he yelled, his eyes flashing blood red. Then he heard a scream, Kagome's scream.
"Damnit!" was his only reply as he flew off down the trail leading towards her cry for help.
"No! Kouga go away! What are you doing?!" cried the terrified girl as she backed into a tree.
"You haven't mated yet. I can smell it. You're untouched." he smirked, almost to himself, as he looked her over with a look of hunger in his eyes. He slowly closed the gap between them.
"Kouga stop, you're better than this! Where's the Kouga I know?! The sweet guy who always tried to save me?" she asked.
"He died when you rejected him. I'm the only one here left... just you and me...."
Her mind raced. 'Oh Gods, what do I do now?! Where's Inuyahsa?! I may be a hanyou now, but I don't think I'm strong enough to take on a full grown demon by myself! I guess I have to try... What other choice do I have?'
As he came closer his hands began to reach out for her. She tried to run, but with every turn she took, Kouga was there, glaring at her. He was always a step ahead of her. 'Damn he's too fast!' she thought.
"Kouga I'm warning you, you'd better get away while you can. Inuyasha will be coming for me any second now and he's gonna..."
"Don't worry, I took care of it. He won't be coming any time soon. He's too late anyways." He growled as he pounced, pinning her arms to a tree rather painfully. She winced, and she swore that for one second, his eyes looked remorseful, almost caring. A moment later, his eyes were filled with the same lust as before. '
Did I just imagine that? Wait a minute, what did he mean 'I took care of it?'! Is Inuyahsa alright?'
"INUYASHA! INUYASHAAAA!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, more worried for him than herself.
"Kagome!" came a voice behind Kouga. She couldn't see because he was in the way, but she knew it was Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha? Inuyasha help he's not being himself!" she cried, obviously still terrified.
Kouga tightened his grip on her wrists and turned his head to look at him.
"She's mine, dog turd. Now leave or I'll have to kill you."
Kagome's eyes flashed a deep crimson and she bared her fangs. 'His? Oh, hell no! I know he didn't just say I was his!'
What happened next was a blur. A moment later Kouga was on the ground, coughing and sputtering, all the while holding... his... um, manhood. A smirk formed at the side of her mouth.
"I was nice before when I said no. You can't really expect me to play the damsel in distress without fighting back, can you? Come now Kouga, I thought you were smarter than that!"
She walked in a circle around him, eyeing him and enjoying the fact that she had put him in this pain in retaliation for her now throbbing wrists. Suddenly his hand shot out in an attempt to grab her ankle, but she was too fast for him. She merely jumped to avoid his grasp and landed next to Inuyasha, putting her arm around him. Inuyahsa shrugged and put his arm around her waist, and they turned to leave.
"Oh and before I leave," she turned and faced Kouga, who looked up at her with tearful eyes. "if you ever touch me again, I'll kill you" With that she turned back to Inuyasha and they walked back to camp.
Inuyasha's eyes fazed back to their normal golden hue. 'Wow, she's a lot different than she used to be. It's weird not having to save her all the time. I kind of miss it... oh well, at least now I have a kick ass fighter on my side, not that I need help.'
She turned and eyed him suspiciously, misreading the look on his face as it was contorted in thought.
"What? I shouldn't defend myself?" she said, sounding annoyed.
"No, I was just thinking that what you did back there was awesome. You kicked his ass!" He hugged her and her eyes immediately changed back to amber. She hugged him back and they slowly made their way back to camp.
"He did WHAT?!" Miroku, Sango, and Shippo cried as Kagome told them what had happened.
"He pinned me up against the tree and yet AGAIN said that I was his. So I kicked him... down there." she giggled.
"What about you Inuyasha? What did you do to him?" the others asked. They knew that Inuyasha wouldn't take too kindly to Kouga touching Kagome, let alone threatening her.
"Nothing."
The others fell backwards, shocked at what they were hearing. "You did... NOTHING?! Why not?"
He smirked, remembering the look on Kouga's face. "She had it under control, and it looked like she was enjoying herself. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to wring the guy's neck, but she was having such a good time, I couldn't bring myself to stop her. He's lucky she didn't kill him on the spot."
Three of the travelers fell backwards yet again, shocked at what they had heard. Inuyasha had avoided a fight with Kouga, and Kagome had threatened to kill her admirer? What was going on here?!
