Chapter Ten
"What's wrong, Inuyasha?" Koga asked, sitting down next to the frowning hanyou.
Inuyasha continued to stare across the fire at his older brother, who was sleeping in Kagome's
arms.
"Naraku think they're both dead...we have to keep him thinking that..." Inuyasha replied,
leaning his head against Koga's shoulder. 'That means they'll have to 'disappear' for a while...but
where could they go without Naraku finding them? Naraku thinks Kagome's dead, so
Sesshomaru is dead to him as well...'
"I say we attack that bastard as soon as possible...screw waiting around...we can find him
again...and why can't he know they're alive?" Koga retorted, glaring at the fire. 'He killed all of
my wolves...for that, I shall kill him personally...'
"...Master Koga, we, at this moment, have the upper hand...but if Naraku knew they were
alive, then he would attack them relentlessly...Kagome, as powerful as she is, may not be able to
protect herself AND all of us...and Sesshomaru, even if he is cold-hearted, will protect us with his
life...but if one of them dies, the other will as well..." Myoga replied, appearing on Koga's
shoulder.
"...I guess you're right..." Koga said, lowering his head. 'I would never want to put
Kagome in danger...so then I will have to protect her...and Sesshomaru...'
Inuyasha looked around the campfire, noticing at some time during the night Sango and
Miroku had fallen asleep next to each other, the houshi's hand, unconsciously, moving towards
Sango. Kohaku, Shippou, and Rin were curled up in a big ball, Kirara's tail surrounding them.
Jaken, sleeping next to the children, was snoring loudly while he mumbled about Rin torturing
him. 'We...we're like a large family...' he thought, snuggling closer to the wolf youkai, his arms
snaking around Koga's middle.
"Goodnight, Inuyasha," Koga whispered, lightly kissing the top of Inuyasha's head. 'I'm
glad Kagome's found someone who loves her...and who she loves in return...'
"How interesting...I trust you won't keep something like this from me again, will you,
Kagura?" Naraku asked, picking up the youkai by her black hair, satisfied when he heard her
moan slightly. 'Perhaps I was too hard on her...no...' Naraku thought, staring down at the
bruised, bleeding wind sorceress who had tried to keep something from him...a very important
observation.
"N...no, Naraku...I won't..." Kagura whispered, wincing in pain as the hanyou let go of
her hair, allowing her to fall back to the floor where she tried to sleep, but she couldn't fall asleep
when she realized Naraku was still standing before her. She inhaled deeply, her breath not giving
her enough air, but she could taste the irony blood in the back of her throat, the sticky substance
trickling down her chin.
"Tomorrow you will go out and kill that miko and demon lord...if you fail me, I'll make
sure Kanna will become familiar to pain..." Naraku stated coldly, turning to leave. Once the
hanyou was out of the room, Kagura spit as best she could, her red blood beginning to stain the
wooden floor. She turned over slightly, opening her swollen right eye to stare at the ceiling,
trying to think of a way to save her sister from Naraku.
"Kagome, it is too early in the morning..." Inuyasha complained groggily, stretching as he
yawned. 'The sun hasn't even risen yet...' Inuyasha thought to himself, poking Koga until the
wolf youkai cracked open an eye, letting the blue orb focus on Inuyasha.
"Nani?"
"Good morning, Koga," Kagome said cheerily from the other side of camp. The hanyou
and youkai stared at her sleepily, falling back into a pile, snoring loudly.
"Kagome...it's still dark..." Shippou commented from underneath Kirara's tail. Kagome
smiled at the little kitsune, glad that Shippou now had a 'father.'
"And? There's so much to do...I have to go home and tell my family about
Sesshomaru...and then..." Kagome continued to speak until Myoga, who was sitting on Miroku's
shoulder, pointed something out.
"We can't risk having Naraku find out you and Sesshomaru are still alive..."
"Well...what can we do?" Kagome asked, looking over at the flea youkai. Myoga thought
for a moment, but as he opened his mouth, he cried out, racing off of the houshi's shoulder.
"...you won't be doing anything, miko," a voice from behind Kagome stated. Inuyasha
and everyone else who had been in various states of sleep stood up, staring at the wind sorceress.
"Master Naraku knows you and Sesshomaru are alive...it was so very obvious..."
'There went our advantage,' Myoga thought to himself as he hid behind Kirara. The fire
neko growled, baring her teeth at the reincarnation. Kagura chuckled and, with a flick of her fan,
sent Kirara, Myoga, Kohaku, and Shippou flying into nearby trees. The four fell to the ground,
motionless.
"Bastard!" Inuyasha cried as he attacked the wind sorceress, his tetsuiga never scathing
the woman, which aggravated the hanyou even more.
"Really, to you think that you can defeat me?" Kagura asked mockingly, hiding her smile
with the fan. Inuyasha, with a new burst of energy, assailed, succeeding in slicing Kagura. A trail
of blood dripped down Kagura's cheek, which the wind sorceress wiped off, glaring at Inuyasha.
'I will not fail again...' Kagura thought, attacking the hanyou with all of her energy.
Authoress: hahaha...cliffhanger...sorry for havin' to stop like this...but I've gotta update on like
four other stories...and my parents won't let me spend over five hours straight on the
computer...damn...
Inuyasha: what happens? TELL MEEEEE!
Koga: *shakes head and sighs* So impatient sometimes...
Authoress: well...I must ask for a few reviews...Gomen...but I've promised myself not to write
anymore chapters until I get some reviews, even flames, I don't care...there's...fifty-six reviews
right now, so I think four or five should satisfy my creative genes...*pulls out a pair of tye-dyed
jeans* whaddya think? Four enough for you to think of something to happen?
Jeans: ...
Authoress: *puts pants on head and stares at computer* yep..four's enough...*begins humming
AFI songs randomly*
Miroku: ooo...I love this song! *begins singing along with 'Girl's Not Grey'*
Sesshomaru: *sigh* I don't associate myself with them...
Authoress: *glomps Sesshomaru, Miroku and Koga* Until next chappie! Buh BYE!!!! *waves
until hand flies off wrist, hitting into computer tower, making the Stone Age Technology smoke*
much to do 'n'...it's their fault!!! *pulls picture book out of nowhere* *points at one picture
