Chapter 5: Secrets Revealed Part II
Kagome/Tailiscar's POV:
The great beast landed gently onto the cliff. As the beast took in the layout of her surroundings she made out her plan. She looked up at the birds hovering over them and let a deep growl out in warning. Most of the birds took the warning and moved away from the men. All except for the leader the bird with the jewels. It simply landed near the men and made to move in for the kill.
Tailiscar where are the men?
To the side of us.
Are they hurt a great deal?
Both are bleeding badly. But neither will die.
Good. Let's go kill that damn bird. Where is it?
To the side of us as well, beyond the men.
She looked around to face the great bird-beast and bared her teeth. A low growl of warning came from the wolf's throat as the bird made a move to the men now lying between them. The bird stopped and looked at the demon wolf in front of it. She knew that the creature was debated its situation at that moment. It wanted of feast on the two demons in front of it, but somehow it seemed to know that the wolf in front of it would destroy it if it touched them. Kagome/Tailiscar smile evilly at the thought.
Now lets see what this things got, said Kagome.
Let's, replied Tailiscar cheerfully. She then slowly advanced on the bird.
InuYasha's POV:
'What the Hell! What is that thing? It looks like a black version of my brother. It's going to kill us. It must be working with these damn birds. What about Kagome and Kikyou? I can't die here. I have to save them,' thought the hanyou as he watched the wolf demon advance towards them.
Kouga's POV:
'Just when I thought I was going to die a great female wolf came to my rescue. I knew that I should be afraid to the great beast in front of me, but curiously I am not. Something about the beast clams me,' thought the wolf leader. He watched the great beast advance on them, and his only thought was that he hoped she would be alright. He was surprised at his reaction to such a dangerous animal. The only other creature that he had ever felt this clam around was Kagome. 'Wait! Could it be? No that's impossible!' he thought. But his nose told him differently. The wolf-demon did smell somewhat like Kagome, but it also smelt of something totally different. 'When this is over I will find out the answer to this riddle,' he vowed to himself. He then lay back down as blood-loss finally got the better of him. He decided to just wait and let the wolf save them. He felt that it would deep inside of him.
Anonymous POV:
The beast was around seven feet tall and fifth teen feet long, with thick jet black hair. It's eyes where hazel in color with sliver chips inside them. It had the marking on its face, much like that of a royal yokai but different, a blue star was in the center of its forehead and blue stripes adorned both cheeks. Aside from those marking the creature was completely black in color. It advance on the birds and leapt into the air. When it landed on the ground again the onlookers could see that the wolf had pinned the bird demon to the ground. With a feral growl of victory the wolf sank its teeth into the bird's body and began to consume its kill. The bird shrieked in agony as the wolf ate it alive. Both Kouga and InuYasha watched in horror as the great beast ate its fill of the bird. Kouga wondered how the wolf could eat such a horrible smelling bird. InuYasha only thought was that he hoped that he wasn't the next on the menu.
Meanwhile back at the base of the cliff:
"Did you guys just see what I saw?" asked Miroku. Everyone around him nodded there heads.
Sango shook her head and asked "OK. What just happened?"
"Kagome turned into a wolf demon." answered one to the clan members beside her. Sango grabbed the pack member and threw him up against the wall. The clan member looked at her mortal scared for his life.
"I know that!" she said. "What I want to know is how and why." She was scared and confused at what she had just seen. Watching her best friend transform like that had scared her to the core of her being. 'What if Kagome doesn't come back,' she thought bitterly as she slowly let the pack member down.
Miroku walked over to Sango and lightly put his arm around her. She collapsed into his embrace crying into his robes. "I'm sure there is a reason for this," he tried to reassure her.
"Yes, I sure she transformed to save Kouga. Their going to be mates, you know," said one of the wolf demons closest to them. At that a new discussion began. Sango and Miroku wanted to know everything that was going on between Kouga and Kagome.
No one saw the evil look that crossed Kikyou's face as she listen to their conversation.
Kagome/Tailiscar's POV:
OK I think we got the jewel shards out of this thing.
Good because let me tell you this is NOT good meat! Kagome smiled to herself at her wolf's words.
Let's go check on the boys and see if they need healing.
As the wolf left the bloody corpse of the bird and made her way to Kouga and InuYasha her heart sank as she noticed InuYasha moving away from her.
He's actually afraid of us Tailiscar, wailed Kagome.
But Kouga doesn't seem to be that worried about us.
Kagome noticed that as they drew closer to Kouga his smile got bigger. Maybe he knows its me, thought Kagome happily.
Maybe.
Anonymous POV:
The wolf went over to the two demons and lightly touched Kouga. She then gave him a small lick on the face before turning to the wounds on his body. Kouga watched in awe as the wolf breathed on the cuts. A warm sensation flowed over him as his cuts and bruises healed themselves. "Thank you," he said to the wolf-demon looking at him. The she-wolf simply nodded her head and move beside InuYasha. InuYasha tried to move away from the beast, but it hurt him to much to move. He then noticed the sad look on the beast face as she watched him. When he finally stopped moving, the she-wolf came and healed him as well. "Thank you," InuYasha said faintly. Again the she-wolf gave a nod in reply.
Then both demons watched in horror as the wolf began to change in front of them. A sliver cloud formed around her and the wolf body began to shrink in size. Its dark black hair began to disappear and give way to smooth, creamy skin. The muzzle of the wolf shrank and a normal looking female face took its place. The giant paws again became hands and the skeleton of the creature again readjusted into if normal form. The last thing to happen, was the tail disappeared and a long, black mane of hair grew from the top of the girls head.
Kagome's POV:
Thank you for your help, my love.
You are most welcome. Now it is time for us to separate.
Until I see you again.
Kagome felt Tailiscar's soul untwined from hers as a massive wave of pain engulfed her as the transformation began again. 'I wonder what the other will have to say about this,' she thought as her world turned black.
Anonymous POV:
Finally, when they could both think again, Kouga and InuYasha realized that a naked Kagome was lying unconscious in front of them. Neither said a word, but InuYasha handed Kouga the top of his hatori. Kouga wrapped Kagome up in the fabric. He then noticed that InuYasha had bent over to pick up something. When the hanyou stood back up he opened his hand to show two purified jewel shards. Then silently and carefully the two male demons made there way back down the cliff. Both lost in their own thoughts.
'What the hell just happen?!? How could Kagome do that!?!,' thought InuYasha as he dared a look at Kagome. Kouga noticed the look and growled in warning. 'And also why in the hell is that mutt acting so protective of her?'
'This does explain why the creature smell like her, but it also raises several questions about how and why she did that. I can't believe what I just saw,' thought Kouga and he held Kagome even closer to him. 'When she wakes up I'll ask her.'
Little did anyone know that the entire event had been seen by another person? Sesshoumaru looked at the trio make their way down the side of the cliff. 'Interesting. It seems that there is more to my brother wench than I thought. I must go find out more,' he thought as he moved out of his hiding place to walk over to the group. 'This should prove to be amusing,' the Lord of the West thought happily.
