Author's note: Hi, so sorry to take forever on writing this chapter. School and life in general has been overwhelming. You have the snow to thank for this update. The public officials finally did something right. I'm so sorry I can't come up with a better excuse. I won't take anymore time up though on to the reviews and the story.

Review the Reviewers!

Ks-Starshine: YOU CAME BACK! YAY! Thank you!

A Shadowed Light: Thank you for the compliment, but I think I'm going to focus on this story before I make a sequel.

Hanyou-ass: Like the name. I might have time to read your story, but as a general rule I usually don't review the readers' stories. It just makes the relationship between the writer and reader weird. I'll add your vote to the count.

Paruety Redal: Thanks. I'll take both votes.

BlueMiko: Everyone seems to like the Breedist idea. I'll work on typing out the first chapter. Hopefully I'll update more constantly then this.

Allura Arwen: Cute review. It's not the end yet.

safran-chan: After all the enormous support for the Breedist I'm definitely going to have to type up the story.

GreyDazeXero: Thank you for your review and vote both are duly noted.

sugarcrazyFox: As always THANK YOU!

Haemavore: Love ya! Thank you for the review, and you thought you wouldn't like it. I'll see what I can do on a different name for that story if I type it up.

demonchik39: Thank you and so far Breedist is definitely winning. I think I'm going to put it on the back of this chapter again just to see if anyone else wants to vote.

Kouga stepped out of his car and looked at the two ways he could choose. Frustrated he turned around and focused on his car. He always thought better when he was focusing on his car, but as he stared at his beauty, his jaw clenched. His precious car was covered with a fine layer of country dust and some mud. Kouga had to fight the urge to hit or kick something. His past frustration escalated into full-blown rage then that anger fuelled his

overbearing determination. Kouga jumped into the open car and raced blindly on his chosen road. As he sped along the road, he thought 'At least that dumb white mutt will be gone to the pound by now maybe even put down.', and he smiled toothily.

"Kagome, do you have something I could wear?" Inuyasha inquired.

"I don't know." Kagome answered and started searching for clothing or a blanket to cover Inuyasha.

After fumbling around in the room she found what she thought was once a linen closet or possibly a former small laundry room. Continuing to search for something anything that could cover Inuyasha since the basement temperature seemed to drop increasingly, she finally felt a dusty black blanket and pull it out of its hiding spot. Violently shaken out the blanket looked more usable and clean. Kagome returned to Inuyasha and handed him the blanket. He quickly arranged it to cover vital parts. Besides the rustling of the blanket when Inuyasha kept readjusting his position to stop his limbs from falling asleep, not a sound was made. Kagome and Inuyasha couldn't find words to say to each other. They just sat next to each other drawing comfort from the fact the other was there. Both listened intently for sounds and motions from above their heads. Not a noise had they heard since the slam of the trapdoor except a moan followed by shuffling of feet. Inuyasha was the first to break the silence.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha's head turned his face down towards Kagome's head now buried into his chest. She looked up at his face. Her brown eyes catching his purple ones.

"Yes, Inuyasha?" Kagome replied noting how tense Inuyasha suddenly became.

"Kagome you know we will get out of here right?" His voice quivered.

"Yes I know." Kagome said determinedly.

"Ok." Inuyasha confirmed.

"What's really wrong?" Kagome questioned still feeling Inuyasaha's stiffness.

"Nothing."

"There has to be something."

"I have never ever told you what you mean to me."

"You don't have to…I know."

"No you don't. I love you Kagome." His words growing fainter yet stronger at the same time.

"I don know because I love you too Inuyasha."

"Oh."

Sango sat up in her bed and rang the call button yet again. Between her insistence to know where Kagome was and Miroku's touching no nurse would dare enter their room. Sano had been constantly pressing the button to the point where all the nurses had been wearing ear plugs or headphones to block out the annoying sound. Finally the old volunteer nurse Kiade burst into Sango and Miroku's room and started to shout.

"Miss if ye don't stop that incessant noise then ye will be hung up by yer ankles. I promise ye. Ye will stop yer fussin right now. Ye will know what ye want to know when ye's supposed to know."

"But I…" Sango sputtered and was interrupted by Kiade.

"But nothing. Ye need to rest. Ye need to get better in order to help yer friend, so stop this ruckus and lay back in the bed." Kiade ordered.

Sango slowly lowered her back into the pillow and laid there silently.

"That's better. Now go to sleep." With that said Kiade left hurriedly to tend to other less troublesome patients.

"Miroku? Are you awake?" Sango asked.

"Hmm…" Miroku responded.

"Are you feeling better?" Sango questioned.

"Mmhmm…" Miroku again responded.

"Can you get up and dressed? Possibly walk?" Sango pestered.

"Nmm…" Miroku mumbled and turned over to face then opposite wall from Sango and fell back into another long sleep.

"Miroku?" Sango inquired. This time no answer followed. "Damn you Miroku. I'll wait but not for long. If you don't get up soon I'll go by myself." Miroku rolled his eyes under his eyelids knowing Sango would do it but would rather not leave without him.

Inuyasha and Kagome had stopped talking content to just sit there together. Those words spoken before were more powerful and true then either of them had realized. Their bliss had spread even though the temperature remained super cold. They just cuddled closer. Then both of them were jarred out of their happy silent moment by a huge thud followed by a smacking sound, and of course more screams out of the obviously recently recovered Kagome. If she had recovered before Kagome and Inuyasha couldn't have enjoyed the silence.

'It's a wonder her voice works at all with all that shrieking.' Kagome thought wishing not for the first time that Kikyou's voice would give out.

A new voice was barely heard over Kikyou's shrill cries, and Inuyasha stiffened as his sharp ears heard and distinguished it. Kouga's voice is the voice he had filtered out of the mélange of noises.

'I'd rather sit here and freeze then be rescued by that jackass.' Inuyasha's thoughts of anger toward Kouga almost overran the happy feeling he had experienced before. His senses regained themselves however, and Kagome as always was his prime focus. He could swallow his pride for her safety after all he was currently only dressed in a blanket.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Kikyou yelled at the intruder.

"WHERE'S KAGOME!" Kouga shouted as he dodged a blow from Naraku.

"Naraku why do have Kagome in the first place?" Kikyou shouted now remembering why she fainted in the first place.

Naraku stayed quiet and focused as he dealt, dodged, and received hits from Kouga. His focus was intensely compromised by Kikyou, but he managed to block her out. Kouga on the other hand having previous practice with ignoring Kagome's dismissals had no difficulty tuning out Kikyou's demands.

"I will find her." Kouga stated determinedly.

"Why does everyone want Kagome? What is it she's got that I don't?" Kikyou's voice growing louder and more shrilled then ever.

Kagome rolled her eyes and thought 'God kill me now. If she doesn't know what's wrong with her then she never should.'

'Class, charm, kindness, wits, brains, beauty…' Inuyasha continued listing good qualities in his head without forgetting his surroundings.

A final thud happened and everything went dead silence even Kikyou until a scream was heard.

"YOU KILLED HIM! HOW COULD YOU?"

Author's note: Hopefully you liked it. Oh the voting is still on. As I said before I'm thinking about writing another story and decided I'd like to know what the adoring public wants. There shall be about three different choices. Add your vote on to your review please. (This voting process thingy that I know of was created by Skywolf. I'm giving her credit.)

1. All bite no Bark
Inuyasha was a hanyou now vampire who was turned by Kikyou 500 hundred years ago. Now in present day Inuyasha has been able to survive in a thriving city stalking victims, but what happens when he singles out the wrong victim a hanyou cat demon who goes by the name Kagome.

2. Parenting 101
Inuyasha and Kagome finally get into a serious relationship and end up married. The only problem is Kagome's pregnant which of course is thrilling her mom, but can Inuyasha and Kagome deal with trials and tribulations of being parents?

3. Breedist
Set in slightly modern times with a twist where demons run freely about the earth. Now human and demon interacting isn't exactly forbidden, but there's definite repercussions for doing so. Unfortunately Kagome doesn't know this when she is transferred to a new high school. In this new place humans hate them with a passion. Of course Kagome does things that are looked down upon like being nice to a demon when she's down. Then when she awards a certain hanyou when he saves her from a school tradition, all hell breaks loose.
