Wassup?
I had at least one review that said I brought the couple back too fast. Well I'm sorry...seriously.
Oh and at the end of the last chapter I referred to myself as "Ike-Bozu". My bad. I should of said "Ike-Bonzu"
Here's Chapter 2
Disclaimer: Inuyasha isn't mine...mostly because I'm not gay, and partly because I didn't create the InuYasha series.
Long Lost Love
Chapter 2
Doubts
Inuyasha patted the clothes Kagome gave him. He wasn't used to having that kind of clothing touch his skin. It was rough, and constant; very annoying. He did notice though, that the others weren't complaining about their clothes at all. Sango, and Miroku were talking in one corner, while Shippou was hanging with Kagome.
Kagome...Inuyasha sighed to himself, as he walked outside. The rain had ironically stopped and didn't reflect his mood at all. He chuckled to himself knowing how the weather reflected how Kagome felt all the time. The sun was now out and shining down on earth. Though, his frown quickly faded when he heard Hojo awaken from his long nap.
"I can't believe Kagome chose him over me..." Inuyasha said making a fist. He wanted nothing more then to pound his fists into Hojo's head so hard that his eyes fell out of their sockets. An evil grin overtook Inuyasha's face as he daydreamed.
He didn't even notice Hojo approach him from behind, "Hello. Inuyasha."
Inuyasha jumped forward then turned around, with his jaw dropped, 'He's supposed to be dead! I just...oh right. Never mind, ' He strapped on a fake smile, "Howzit going? Hojo?"
The two never really liked each other at all. Especially that time Kagome brought him over for dinner at her old house. She invited the both of them, and Inuyasha wanted him to leave Kagome alone. Of course, Hojo fought back (literally) and Kagome told them both to leave and give her some space. It was the first time 2 guys ever fought over her...(well two guys she kinda liked considering Kouga and all)
"So did you here?" Hojo said with a smile on his face, "Kagome and I are living together. We're both thinking about marriage.."
Inuyasha shrugged, "Beh. Big deal."
"Your acting like you don't care, "Hojo said turning his "innocent" smile into a sly smirk. He leaned against the wall looking up at the sun lit sky, "You know you love Kagome. She told me all about your little accident 6 years ago. I comforted her, and told her you'd come back but she lost hope. Thats why I'm with her."
Inuyasha growled under his breath. Hojo was showing his true colors right now, but he didn't want Hojo to know he was effecting him. Hojo continued, "If your thinking of taking Kagome from me your too late."
"Did I say I was?" Inuyasha snapped back, "So, did you two have sex yet?"
Hojo shook his head, "No, we haven't made love yet, "Hojo said putting empisizes on the words made and love. Inuyasha simply shrugged it off and walked into the house.
"Hey, you got any ramen in here?" Inuyasha asked Kagome with a smile on his face. Not an angry or sly smile, but a heart filled one, "I've been dying for some in those past years Kagome."
"Of course we do!" She said running into the kitchen, "In new flavors too! Come check'em out!"
Shippou laughed, "Inuyasha's just the same as he used to be, huh Kagome?"
"I still can't get over how much you've grown Shippou!" Kagome said for the 8th time that day, "Your voice has gotten alot deeper then it was too! Do you have a girlfriend?"
Shippou blushed scratching his cheek, "Yeah...her name is Mayumi. She's back in the feudal era."
"Yes she really is quite beautiful," Sango said with a smile on her face.
"It'd be great if you could come back with us Kagome!" Shippou exclaimed, "There isn't any danger because we defeated Naraku! It was us...well me. Inuyasha had to kill almost every demon by himself to find the jewel shards since he didn't have you there to help him."
"Yes Kagome. Please do." Miroku said noding.
"No Kagome, please don't, " Hojo said approaching them, "Besides even if Kagome did follow you. How can I make sure she's safe?"
Shippou knocked his finger on Hojo's head, "What part of Naraku being defeated don't you get? And besides, I have a sword."
Kagome gasped, "Is that right?"
"Yeah I taught him," Inuyasha said stuffing his mouth full with 4 different flavors of ramen, "It was easy, and he learned real fast."
Kagome slammed her fist in her hand, "That settles it. I'm going with them to feudal Japan for the weekend. Is that okay with you Hojo?"
"Abosulutly not, " Hojo said with an almost pleading voice, "Its dangerous there Kagome. You told me yourself this Naraku fella tried to kill you the last time you were there! I will not allow you to go there Kaome, and besides. Don't you have to make listen plans for your class on monday?"
"Calm down Hojo, your not my father." Kagome said still calm, "I'll be fine with Inuyasha there." Hojo looked at Inuyasha to find him smirking,"And besides, I still have arrows. Sango's a demonslayer, Shippou can use his sword, and Miroku's a powerful monk. Naraku's dead so whats the worst that could happen?"
"Kagome, you can't go with them!" Hojo said raising his voice a bit, "It's not decent! What about me?"
"What about you Hojo?" Kagome exclaimed, "Like I said before I don't need your permission to hang out with my friends! I haven't seen them in six years, Hojo!"
Shippou leaned over to Miroku, "1,000 Yen says they break up."
Miroku noded, and they did the deal handshake, making it offical. After that Kagome and Hojo continued, "Kagome your going into a world of demons!"
Kagome sighed walking passed him, pushing through the door. Before she could step outside, Hojo grabbed her hand with force she never knew Hojo had. Since she met him, Hojo was the kind a gentle person, but now he was filled with jealousy and anger, "Your NOT going with Inuyasha!"
"Yes I am!" Kagome countered trying to take her hand back, "And you can't stop me Hojo!"
Hojo was now hurt. Even he and Kagome have never argued before, and now they have. He turned around, flicking his finger at Inuyasha, "Ya happy now!"
"Listen, I didn't do anything!" Inuyasha said in defense, "All I did was-"
Hojo replaced Inuyasha's word with a fist in his face. With Inuyasha stumbled back a bit, but it didn't really hurt at all. All that was done damage was a bloody nose, "Why you little bastered!" Inuyasha exclaimed grabbing his now noticable Tetsuisaga, "Your gonna regret you ever did-"
"Inuyasha, sit boy!" Kagome said angrily. The effect took a few seconds, but it worked to its fullest. Inuyasha's head was stuffed into her floor. Kagome couldn't believe it. The two people she was glad to be with were acting like little babies.
Kagome ran upstairs, grabbed her terished jewel shard, and ran back outside, "Shippou, Miroku, Sango. Lets go." She started walking outside until a hand grabbed hers once more, "Hojo, I don't want to-"
"Kagome..." Inuyasha whispered, "Its been so long since you've done that to me. I would be happy but-WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT TO ME!"
"Why did you bring the Tetsuiaga!" Kagome asked angrily. She was so happy to see everybody at first, but now she just wanted to get away from them. She jumped into the well by herself, leaving tears at the edge of the well.
Inuyasha sighed then turned to the others, "C'mon lets go...wait. Where's Shippou?"
Kagome climbed up out of the well into the feudal era. This brought a smile to her face, because she hadn't been there in a while. It was the spot six years ago when she left Inuyasha that day, "I wonder how they killed Naraku..."
"Haha, it was me!"
Kagome jumped forward, then swung around. It was Shippou standing next to her. Shippou had really changed during the time they were appart (Think of Son Goku from the Manga/Anime Saiyuki and you'll get the exact image of Shippou).
"It was me who killed Naraku," Shippou said sitting at the edge.
"Your joking!" Kagome said sitting next to him. This is exactly what she needed. A friend who she could talk to, "Tell me how."
"Sure!" Shippou stood up then pointed his finger into the air, "When you left, Naraku had his fingers jammed into Inuyasha's skull, which kinda made him nicer, and I couldn't take it. If you remember I was really weak back then, but something happened. My toys started glowing and they kinda...sped up my growth. I grew up real quickly, and it turns out I'm the heir of the great Gogyo!"
"Gogyo?" Kagome repeated in question.
Shippou noded, "Gogyo was a really powerful demon to saved feudal Japan once beofre. Not only am I his grandson but I'm his heir. It turns out I had the power to defeat Naraku...so I did." He pointed to his head, "Inuyasha and Kouga kept yelling at me."
Kagome laughed, "Because they each wanted to kill Naraku!"
"Yeah," Shippou said blushing, "Oh yeah I almost forgot! I wanna show you my girl!" He grabbed Kagome's hand leading her in an unknown direction. Kagome had really noticed how peaceful its goten since she left.
"Hey Mayumi!" Shippou called out once reaching a certain spot, "Mayuuumo! Its me Shippou!"
A few seconds of silence overtook them both, but soon a girl with red hair pounced on Shippou with lighting speed. She began kissing his face all over, "Your back!"
Shippou blushed, "W-Would you get off Mayumi? I want you to meet the girl I told you about."
She noded, standing up, "Girl? I don't see any girl here." Mayumi looked around, "Is there somebody your hiding from me Shippy?"
Shippou waved his hands, "N-No! I just wanted you to meet Kagome! The preist that looked like Kikyo. Remember? I told you about her a few years ago?" Mayumi was too busy staring into his eyes to car what was going on, "Awh, Mayumi..."
Kagome had walken off a while back wanting to give Shippou and Mayumi some privicy. She had a smile on her face as she walked through the semi-farmiler forest. By now Kaede was most likely dead. She would have to remember to ask Miroku where she was buried. The trees were blocking most of the sun, but rays of light slammed into the plants which would make them grow.
It felt different for Kagome though. She would usually be alert at all times because of the mini skirt she always wore, but now she was fine, "Well I should head back," She turned around to walk but hit something and fell back, "Oh sorry I-...Inuyasha?"
He smiled, helping her up, "What were you so happy about? The way you left back there kinda scared me."
Kagome noded, "I just...well...I...Inuyasha...Hojo...and I..."
InuYasha's frowned dissappeared, "We have to talk Kagome."
Review what you feel!
