Chapter 20

Love is in the air

            "Kagome…" Inuyasha screamed in vain. "Why did you leave me? You said that you would never leave!" As he dropped down to his knees and brought his fist to his face. I should have never left her alone. Inuyasha thought as a tear fell down his face. He slowly got up and tried to get Kagomes' scent, but it was covered with the distinct odor of wolf.  His blood ran cold thinking about where Kagome was taken.  He ran down the path to get Kagome back and he prepared for a fight that would end anymore troubles for them.

*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*

(With Kagome)

            "Let me go!" she screamed as she kicked and punched. Most of the time she was hitting the air that surrounded her.  Finally she hit one of her kidnapper's right in the nose and they dropped her onto her back.  As she recovered from the fall she noticed that her blind fold had fallen.  "Ginta!  Hakkaku! Why did you take me?" Kagome screamed as she fixed her outfit. "Lady Kagome, Koga is in trouble. He is in need of your help. Since his battle for you he has been screaming. He has been wanting you. He has been upset that you would not let Inuyasha keep fighting him. Don't get his wrong, but he thinks he should fight for his woman." Ginta informed her. "But…" Kagome did not finish her sentence. She was too worried about Koga to finish. Inuyasha what should I do? She asked herself. "Why did you kidnap me?" "That is the only way we could get you away from that half breed. He would have torn us to shreds other wise." Hakkaku answered back. "Lady, we must keep going Inuyasha will catch up with us soon." But I want him to catch up. I want him. Kagome thought as she looked at her ring. "You can see how much I love you because every color represents a thought I am having about you at this one minute." Inuyasha's thoughts must be on how I am and if I am okay. Kagome thought as she watched the colors of the ring dance in the sun light. "Lady Kagome, we must leave." Ginta persisted. "Fine let's get going" Kagome said as she got to her feet.

*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&

(Back with Inuyasha)

            "Inuyasha what is making you run so much faster?" Miroku asked as he and Sango road Kirara. "We are catching up to Kagome's kidnapers" Inuyasha said as he cracked his knuckles and slowly gained an evil smile. Inuyasha could taste the blood of Kagomes kidnapers even before he was able to catch up with them. Streaks started to appear on Inuyasha's face as his blood coursed though him.

*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&

(At Koga's cave.)

"Kagome!" Koga whispered as Kagome appeared in front of him. "Koga, are you are okay?" Kagome asked as she looked over Koga's deep scratches from Inuyasha. "I am fine since you are here." Koga replied. Nether one of them noticed that someone was listening into them. Kagome soon you will be gone and Koga will be telling me that he is glad to see me. The figure started to walk out from the shadows with a knife aimed for Kagome. She raised her hand, but something stopped her. Kagome was saying something that seemed to be in her favor. "Koga we need to talk." "Fine after I take my nap. Please don't leave Kagome..." Koga said as he held Kagomes hand close to his heart. Inuyasha I want you please Inuyasha I wish that you where here to help me tell Koga. Okay maybe not considering you two would start fighting again. Kagome thought, but little did she know that Inuyasha was on the outside about to jump into the cave to save Kagome. Sango and Miroku had fallen behind, because Inuyasha was running so fast.  Ayame lifted the blade about to crash it into Kagome till…

                                                                                                                                                                                          

"KAGOME!" Inuyasha screamed startling Kagome's killer and she crept back into the darkness. Inuyasha jumped to where Kagome and Koga where and then he looked up and Kagome noticed that Inuyasha was transformed. His claws were out stretched toward Koga and his fangs protruding from his mouth to cover his lower lip. Where is Tetsusaiga? Kagome thought and then remembered laying it down next to the bed. "Inuyasha" Kagome gasped. "Koga get up it's time for you to die!" Inuyasha screamed as he raised his claws as Koga rose. "I think you are wrong." "Please don't fight" Kagome screamed, but neither one reacted to Kagome. Kagome thought fast and then yelled at Inuyasha.

"Inuyasha If you love me as much as I love you, you will not start this fighting." Inuyasha slowly turned to look at Kagome. As he turned his claws went back to normal size and his fangs disappeared into his mouth and his purple strips crept back from where they came from. "Kagome" Inuyasha screamed. "Inuyasha" Kagome screamed running toward Inuyasha. She jumped into his arms. "Kagome, I love you!" "I love you too." Kagome said as she kissed him.

Koga watched the display unfolded before him and his heart fell into bits and pieces onto the ground. He filled with anger and headed toward Inuyasha ready to kill him for causing him so much pain. Then Kagome would be his, forever.  But he was stopped by Ayame. "Look Koga they are happy. Can't you see that? If you love something then you should set it free. Even more so since you have some one who wants to be with you no matter what. I want to be with you. You promised to marry me. I know that Kagome came and you feel as though she should be your mate, but when you are with me aren't you happy? Koga, please!" Ayame asked.

Koga looked into Ayame's eyes and slightly rubbed her ears. "Ayame, do you love me?" Koga asked. "Yes, Koga. I love you with all my heart and ten times more."  Ayame leaned into Koga and stared right into his eyes.  While looking into Ayame's eyes he realized that his heart felt full. His soul was complete. "Ayame, you are so beautiful. Why had I never noticed it before?" Koga asked raising her chin to kiss her lips lightly and short, but it turned out to be a long kiss that left them wanting more.

"Inuyasha lets go." Kagome whispered and pulled Inuyasha toward the opening. "Kagome, I love you." "I love you too." Kagome whispered. As the exited the cave Inuyasha looked into Kagome's eyes seeing life and happiness in her eyes. He wrapped his arm around Kagome and started to kiss her. As they separated Sango and Miroku appeared.  

"Excuse us" Miroku joked. All the sudden he felt a pain on the back of his head as a lump rose from his head where Sango slapped him. "Would you two like a ride?" Sango asked. "Sure" Kagome said jumping onto the back of Kirara. Inuyasha looked into Kagomes eyes and smiled, because he could see their future.

Inuyasha wrapped his arm around Kagome and held her close. "Kagome, you mean the world to me. I love you. I never want to hurt you even more now then ever." "I love you too."  Kagome said as she snuggled up into Inuyasha. As they held each other Kagome's ring started to glow. "What is going on Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. "Our love is pure. So, the stone has just made that clear to everyone. It will shine like that forever." Inuyasha said as he held her tight. Lightly brushing a kiss on her forehead that Kagome could feel in her bones.

(Author's notes)

Thank you everyone. You have made this story to chapter 20. Let's see if I can make it to 30.  Will Kagome and Inuyasha set a date? Will Koga come? Will Miroku ask Sango for a proposal? Who knows?
