A/n: Alrighty, chappie two, Rescue and Disaster, is coming! Thanks for anyone who read my story, and liked it. I'm sorry for the cliffie, but it's just apart of fanfiction. In this Chapter, InuYasha will enter. w00t! He may be OOC, but I'll try to keep a little of his attitude. Even though he may not pop up very much. They're going to fall in love rather quickly, so that's the reasoning for the OOC-ness. Also, for any Kikyo fans, YOU'RE READING A FANFIC BY THE WRONG AUTHOR! I despise Kikyo. I hate her with every fiber of my being. I was born to HATE KIKYO. My purpose in life is to HATE KIKYO! So do not expect me to be kindly toward her. dreads the chapter that's gonna have Inu/Kik moments shiver Ick!

Anyway, heading onto teh chapter twoooo of Angels and Devils.

Angels and Devils

Chapter two: Rescue and Disaster

Kagome closed her eyes tightly, and waited for the impact of the car hitting her. But it never came. Instead, she felt herself hit the ground. She hit her head, but not too hard, luckily. She snapped her eyes open, brown hues instantly met with another pair of eyes peering down at her; ones she didn't recongnize. Bright golden orbs gleamed down at her, and she blinked. Well, she wasn't dead, meaning someone had saved her, and she pretty much figured out that it was her savior she looking at now. It must've been a demon...she'd never seen a human with golden eyes before.

"Are you okay?" The voice snapped her from her thoughts, and she realized it was one she didn't recognize; no doubt her rescuer's voice.

"Y-yeah...I'm fine." Well, besides a little bump on the head. But Kagome could live with that. It was much better than being dead, or half-dead. She nodded, and slowly rose to her feet. She wanted a better look of her savior, and the ground was hard. Rubbing her head, she lifted brown hues. Now she was positive that he was no human. After all, humans didn't have silver-colored hair. Not unless they dyed it, and this looked pretty natural to her. And as far as her knowledge, humans didn't have dog-like ears either. Which was something that made her curious. She'd never seen youkai with ears like those. Most of the demons she'd seen had ears almost like a human's, only pointed. So why would this one in particular be different, and have silver dog ears? She'd have to ask Sango, since her older friend knew a lot about demons. Speaking of which...SHIT. Kagome had probably scared Sango half to death by nearly getting hit by a car like that...

Glancing over her shoulder, she could see both Sango and Miroku only a few feet away, and they both seemed to be relieved. She smiled, turning her gaze back to the mysterious demon, only to find he was gone. She tilted her head, blinking, and frowning slightly. "Dammit, I didn't get to thank him..." Sighing, she shrugged, and headed over to her two friends. Like it mattered, she'd probably never see that guy again anyway. So, whatever. She just wanted to get home; her head still hurt. Laying down for a quick nap sounded really good about now.

Heading home, Kagome and Sango walked side-by-side, Sango constantly asking if the younger girl was alright. Though her answer was always the same. 'Yes, Sango, I'm okay, already!' They'd managed to get rid of Miroku about five minutes after the little accident. He'd said he had something to do, and personally, they were perfectly happy watching him finally leave. It was like being stalked, having a hentai follow you home. Not a very pleasant thought.

Kagome glanced up at Sango, brown hues gleaming with curiousity. "So Sango, you saw that guy who saved me, right?"

The older girl nodded, looking at her friend now. "Yeah. Pretty cute if you ask me. You were lucky, because you were just about to become a Kagome Pancake on me." Sango smiled, obviously amused.

"Hehe, guess I should pay attention more." Kagome giggled, rubbing the back of her head, mainly because it still hurt a little.

"You won't have to if he's already around. You've got yourself your very own mysterious bodygaurd. Must be a birthday present." That earned a laugh from both of them. They hardly ever took anything seriously unless one of them were badly hurt, and it showed.

"Well yeah, about him, I know he was a demon, but there's something I don't get." Kagome said, gazing at the sky.

"What's that?" Sango asked, glancing at her questioningly.

"Why were his ears like that? They were like...dog ears. I've seen inu youkai before, but they too have ears like the others. I think he's the first I've seen with those kind of ears."

"Hmmm..." Sango seemed to ponder over this a moment, a finger on her chin, her head slightly tilted. "I'm not sure, but I think only hanyous have animal-like ears like that."

"Hanyou?" The younger girl blinked.

"Yeah, a half-demon, ya know. Half demon, half human." The youkai slayer replied.

"Oh...that's an odd pairing."

"Yeah, guess so. That's why a lot of people don't approve of it. That's why hanyous are usually feared or picked on. I'm actually a little surprised one would waste its time saving you, now that I think about it."

"You make it sound like I wasn't worth it..." Kagome mumbled, then sighed. "Well, he apparently didn't want to hang around very long. I never got to think him, or get his name or anything. Which kinda sucks, I feel like I should've at least thank the person who saved my life."

"Yeah, well, what're ya gonna do?" Sango said simply, shrugging. "Besides, you never know, you might meet 'im again."

"That's not very likely."

"Yeah, but I figured I'd say something."

After a while, the two girls seperated, one going one way, the other headed in another. Kagome lost her mind to thoughts once again as she walked along the sidewalks, heading to her shrine. She wanted to know what her family was planning! What was their big surprise, so big that they didn't even mention her birthday? And in these thoughts, Kagome never thought that she may never find out.

Climbing up the steps, the girl blinked. There was a lot of smoke in the air above their shrine...why was that? Of course, her Grandpa could just be burning something outside, but it rarely ever produced that much smoke. She sighed, and shrugged. Oh well, she'd find out. And she did.

Coming upon her house, the fifteen year old froze for the second time in one day, brown orbs widening at the sight before her. Flames...huge, high flames...everywhere... Pitch black smoke rose into the azure sky, dispering after a certain distance. "Oh my Kami..." The girl gasped, taking a step toward the large fire. Her house was in flames...slowly being burn to ashes. Her house was on fire!

Without thinking, Kagome took off, running right through the door and into the burning house. "Mama, Souta, Grandpa?! Please, someone answer me!" She screamed, hands cupped around her mouth. Eyes began to fill with crystal tears. Not only because she couldn't find her family, but because the smoke was causing her eyes to sting.

She ran frantically through the house, and though she found her family in the process, her findings only brought more tears to her eyes, and more fell down her cheeks. They were dead...her family was dead. Things were already turned to ash in the house. The girl knew the fire must've been going on for some time now, or everyone would probably still be alive.

Crying silently, Kagome ran up to her room, and jerked open a burning door. She started digging through her possessions, making sure to grab anything important to her. Clothes she could buy, but she needed money for it. So she managed to get that before it burned, too. She heard something behind her, and whirled around in hopes one of her family members may be alive. Her hopes dropped into nothingness when she saw eyes of crimson hue glaring at her. And somehow she felt she'd seen those eyes before, but not often.

A man stood in her doorway, the flames swirling between him and her. All she could make out was the face and hair, which was a really dark brown, almost black, color. Kagome knew this person, from somewhere. She thought for a few moments before it clicked. This was Naraku, some kind of cousin to her, but she wasn't in the right state of mind to remember right now. Because now she was scared to death. She had never liked this man, and there was no doubt in her mind that he'd been the one to start this fire and kill her family. She felt she was next.

But before he could move any closer, Kagome bolted away from the man, going over to her window, and pushing it open. "You damn murderer!" She yelled, glaring coldly. "Bastard!" She was slightly surprised he didn't attack her, but she didn't wait long enough to see if it would happen. She slipped out the window, and leapt to the ground.

Wincing as her feet in the hit ground, she almost dropped to her knees but wouldn't allow it. Dark, swirling, chrome rain-clouds built up in the once blue sky above, making darkness sweep over the area. Kagome ran to a huge tree, one with thick and high branches. The God Tree, the Goshinboku. She gazed up at it, remembering the many times she and Souta climbed its branches. She reached, and grasped the lowest branch, then pulled herself up onto it. As rain began to pelt down on her, causing her to shiver at how cold it was, she climbed up and up, until she had a perfect view of the area.

She could see many other cars driving up to the shrine, and many people running around. A lot of them she recognized. Aunts, uncles, cousins. "What the hell is going on?" She whispered to herself, leaning her head against the bark of the tree, raven hair clinging to her shoulders as the rain continued to drench her.

"Oi, little kitty, you stuck?"

Kagome blinked, looking down. Her brown eyes met gold ones, and she recongized them instantly. "You!" She pointed at the supposedly 'hanyou'.

He blinked at her, ears flicking toward her as he gazed up into the tree. He looked a little confused.

"You saved me earlier today." The girl said, trying to remind him.

"Oh yeah...no wonder you seemed familiar." He replied. "You gonna come down or what?"

"No!" She shook her head frantically, clinging to the branch.

"Well, there's a bunch of your relatives searching for you down here..."

"So? Those...evil people killed my mother, grandfather, and brother!"

"You know..." The hanyou began, "You're gonna have to come down, or I'll have ta come up there and drag you down."

"So fine, you do that." Kagome replied.

"Okay then. I'm coming up."

"What? ...ACK!" The fifteen year old nearly fell off the branch when the silver-haired hanyou appeared beside her. She blinked. "H-how...did you do that?"

"I jumped, stupid." He replied, rolling his eyes. "Now, what exactly are they chasing you for?"

"I dunno!" Kagome said instantly, then sighed. "What could I have done to deserve this? I did steal my aunt's car once, and accidently ran over her dog 'cause I didn't know how to drive and..." She continued to mumble things she'd done in the past, not aware of anything else at the moment.

"Shut up."

"And so I snuck out once, it was only once, and I didn't get drunk or anything!"

The hanyou sighed. "I said shut up!"

"And I locked Souta in a closet once with a big spider, but I was six, I didn't know any better!"

She wasn't listening...great. There was only one way to get her to shut up now, and the inu hanyou didn't like the idea much. Oh well...

Kagome's words were quickly quieted as a pair of lips cut them off. Blinking, she stared, realizing that her savior had just kissed her.
