Between Him And The Wolf
Inuyasha was tired. He had traveled to his brothers castle again and found out that Kagome was supposedly mated to that stupid wolf now. He had wanted to be the first one to mate with her. Now he would make Koga pay for taking her first. And he would enjoy every wound he put on the wolf. No one takes what is his without paying dearly for it. After he got done with the wolf he would deal with Kagome. She would pay for taking the wolf as her mate. She would regret ever letting that flea bag touch her. When he was through with her she wouldn't touch anyone but him ever again. He was almost to the wolf den and it sounded like they were having a party. He watched the guards call out to the other wolves about his arrival. He landed in front of them and drew his sword. The weak wolves before him wasn't much of a challenge. He stormed into the den and found Sango and Miroku facing him. He let Kikyo off his back and stared at his friends before him. "Where is Kagome. You can't keep her from me. She is mine and I am here to claim her."
Sango grabbed hiraikotsu and braced it just in case. She watched as Miroku had his staff in front of him ready to protect Kagome. Together they would protect Kagome from the maniac that was once their friend. "She was not and will not ever be yours Inuyasha. So just take yourself and that dead clay Kagome wanna be figurine away from here."
Inuyasha didn't want to fight the slayer or the monk but he would if they stood in his way of getting Kagome. "Don't talk about Kikyo like that. If anyone is a wanna be it is Kagome. Kikyo was here first and will always be first with me."
Miroku couldn't believe what he was hearing. "If you feel that way about Kikyo then why do you want Kagome, Inuyasha?"
"She is Kikyo's reincarnation therefore she is my property. And I will not let anyone take what is mine. Now move aside Sango and Miroku I don't want to harm you but I will if you insist on standing between me and Kagome." He raised Tetsusaiga and stared at the monk and slayer. He was waiting for them to move so that he could find Kagome and Koga.
Kagome was following Koga back to the main den when she heard Inuyasha threaten her friends and make his claim on her. How dare he say that she belonged to him just because she was Kikyo's reincarnation. She could feel and smell the anger radiating off Koga at Inuyasha's words. (Koga we need to find a way to get him out of the den. We can't let him harm anyone else.)
Koga nodded his head to his mate and led her to her friends and the mutt. "Hey Mutt face, why don't we talk outside. Your smelling up my den and your mate's scent is down right nauseating."
Inuyasha brought his sword down to hit the wolf but it was stopped by Sango's boomerang. He shoved her away from him and tried to slice Koga in half again. This time Miroku's staff stopped his attack. "Are you going to let these humans fight your battle you cowardly wolf."
Koga stepped in front of the humans and faced the angry hanyou. "I don't need them to fight my battles for me. Let's take this outside and I will gladly fight you."
Inuyasha turned and sheathed his sword and left the den with Kikyo and the rest following him. Fine if they wanted to fight outside he would let them. He walked to a clearing outside the den and turned to face Koga. He saw the wolf and his Kagome heading toward him. Kagome had changed since he last saw her. She had turned into a ookami youkai. Well if she changed when she mated the wolf then she would likely change into a inu-youkai when he mated with her. And that would be all the better.
Kagome couldn't believe that Inuyasha tried to fight Sango and Miroku. Koga she could understand but why would he threaten them. She was angry with Inuyasha for saying she was his. Maybe she could talk to him. She walked up to Inuyasha and slapped him across his face. "You dare claim me when you have a mate. Not to mention all the heartache that you caused me over the years by you always running off to be with her. I am finally happy and here you come to try and ruin it. Not to mention that you bring Kikyo here. You know that she want's nothing but my life. Do you care so less for my welfare that you bring her here so that she might destroy me. Be forewarned Inuyasha I will not let you harm my mate or my friends." She turned away from him to rejoin Koga.
Inuyasha felt her slap him and could feel the anger taking over his soul. He wouldn't let his mate dominate him. He was the alpha male and she would bow to him. He watched as she turned away from him to return to the wolf. She wouldn't get away with dismissing him so easily. He reached out his claws and grabbed her arm. "You dare talk to me in such a manner. It will not happen again wench"
He held her prisoner with one hand and drew his other back and slapped her across her face. "You will not disgrace me again with your back talk. I am your mate and you will learn to listen and do as you are told."
Kagome reeled when he struck her. If he hadn't been holding her arm she would have fallen to the ground from the force of the blow. She steadied herself and faced Inuyasha again. She spit her blood that had pooled in her mouth in his face. You dare strike me and claim me as your mate. I am Koga's mate not yours and would never willingly choose to be your mate. Get over it Inuyasha. You can't have me." She drew upon her miko powers and let it singe his hand that was holding her prisoner. She ran away as soon as he released her. She turned to sit him but stopped when she saw Koga charging at Inuyasha.
Koga was madder than he had ever been in his life. How dare that no excuse for a mutt hit his mate. He charged at him and jumped and landed with both of his feet hitting Inuyasha's chest. He sent the mutt flying across the clearing. He watched as Inuyasha went through two trees before the third stopped him. He started toward him and when he rose he punched him with his fist and sent him into another tree. He wasn't about to give the whelp a break. He deserved every punch and hit that he gave him. No one attacked his mate. He started for Inuyasha again and had to jump back to avoid being cut with the hanyou's sword.
Inuyasha had never seen Koga battle with suck ferocity before. I never thought the wolf could really fight. Sure I traded punches with him over the years but it never went further than that. Kagome always stopped our battles before they got too bad. He raised Tetsusaiga and waited till he found the wind scar and released the attack on Koga.
Koga saw the attack coming and leaped out of the way. He watched as Inuyasha raised the sword for another attack. He waited till he released the attack toward him then jumped out of the way and before the smoke from the attack could clear he slammed his claws into the hanyou's chest and kicked the sword out of his hands. He stood over the wounded mutt and waited for him to get back up. As he was waiting he smelled the hanyou's scent changing. He jumped back away from him as he started to rise. When he looked at Inuyasha again he saw his red eyes the reddish stripes on his face. His youkai was in control now. Kagome had told him about this. Inuyasha would kill until his beast was satisfied or he was dead. Koga jumped back to avoid an attack of his claws and kicked him back across the clearing. No matter how many times he kicked him and clawed him the mutt kept coming back. How he was even walking let alone fighting he didn't know. He should have been down for the count many times over but he kept coming back for more.
Kikyo watched as the wolf prince and Inuyasha fought. Inuyasha was wounded badly. He wouldn't last much longer at the rate that he was loosing blood. She ran to Kagome. "Make your mate stop. You know that Inuyasha will not relent while in this state. You have to do something."
Kagome waited till Inuyasha was jumping in the air to attack Koga again before she hollered "SIT" She watched the hanyou slam to the ground then she turned to Kikyo. If you want him back return his sword to him. Only then will he return to normal. She watched Kikyo run across the clearing and pick up the sword.
Kikyo reached the sword and rushed it to Inuyasha. As she handed the hanyou the sword she saw him rise up. Before she could stop him he swung the sword and sliced her stomach open. Kikyo staggered back away from him and watched as the souls she was holding slowly started to leave her body. She collapsed just out of his reach and looked at him pleadingly. It wasn't suppose to end this way. He was the one that was suppose to die. Him and Kagome not her. She was suppose to be the victor not him. How could he do this to her. She reached out her hand to him as she felt the last souls leave her body.
Inuyasha ignored his mate as she held her hand out to him. He just stood and watched as the souls left her body. He watched a large piece of her soul leave her body and head toward Kagome. As that soul left her body he watched as she turned to dust before his eyes. Now that Kikyo was out of the way Kagome could become his first mate. He turned and saw her in the arms of the wolf. How dare she embrace that flea infested cur. He staggered to them and jerked Kagome away from Koga and threw her across the clearing. "My mate will not leave me for that worthless excuse for a youkai. You will stay away from him."
Koga couldn't believe that the addled mutt called Kagome his mate. "Kagome is not yours you mangy dog. She is my mate and you will not treat her in such a careless manner." He rammed into the hanyou's injured stomach and pushed him away from his injured mate. "Stay away from her. I won't tell you again." He backed away from the injured mutt and stood waiting for him to get up again.
Inuyasha laid on the ground and waited till he could breath easier before he got back up. His hand tensed around the hilt of his sword and he raised it to strike the wolf. As he brought it down it was suddenly stopped by another sword. Lightning was coming from the two swords as they clashed together. He looked at the holder of the sword. He wasn't suppose to be here. Why was he interfering. This was not his battle. This was between him and the wolf.
