Story Summary: Kagome has seen InuYasha kissing Kikyo once again, and has had enough. She leaves the group and but is attacked by a wolf demon, and somehow swallows some of its blood. Unfortunately, the next day she wakes up to find herself that very demon. She now believes she is the demon, and cant remember InuYasha or anyone. At the same time, Sesshomaru has sent Jaken out to find him a mate. Could this new version of Kagome be taken as a worthymate of Sessomaru?

Previously: InuYasha kissed Kikyo, Kagome saw it, and ran away (no new thing there...). He chased after her and calmed her down, and they fell asleep. Miroku and Sango saw them arguing, but didnt interrupt, and started discussing their 'relationship' and ended up kissing. YAY bounces up and down clapping sry bout that. animeluver said "When is miroku ever that romantic..." (i quote) but, i had to get it out of the way before i went on, cuz him and Sango have to be together and thats never gonna happen the way he's acting! anyway, here's what happens next!
Chapter 2: The Attack!
When Kagome awoke, she found herself in InuYasha's arms. It took her a moment to remember what had happened, and when she did, she was overwhelmed with a sickness of having him touching her after what he had done. As quickly as she could without waking him, she undid herself, and stood. For a moment she stayed in that place, staring down at him. Then she left.
After getting her bag, she went to see Sango, Miroku, and Shippo. Shippo was sleeping next to Kilala (I know its spelled Kirara, but this is easier :) ) and Sango was sleeping in Miroku's arms. 'What happened here?' She wandered. But she suppressed her curiosity and didn't wake Sango up.
She kneeled down and gently kissed Sango on the check, "I'll never forget you my dear, dear friend. I'll always love you and you'll be in my heart for rest of my life… But I can't stand to stay any longer. Never think I thought of you as any less than the best friend I've ever had." Kagome looked at Shippo. "And Shippo…" She murmured fondly, "It hurts to leave you, all alone. I know how much you loved me, and know I loved you just as much. You were like a little son to me." Then she turned to Miroku and laughed lightly. "Stop being such a perv, will you?" She giggled more. "No, you're good just the way you are. Just think a little more before you move your hand." She noticed Kilala. "You're so cute; I wish I could take you with me. But of course that would never do…" She didn't go to InuYasha. What would she say to him anyway?
She got up slowly, not wanting to leave, but she knew she needed to. 'It's time to go…' She turned and walked away.
When she got to the well, she paused. She half expected InuYasha to appear and stop her from leaving, but no one came. She brought a leg up and prepared to jump in when... Did she hear something? She jerked back, "Who's there!" She demanded. "InuYasha?..." She said uncertainly. Suddenly a demon jumped through the woods out of nowhere and launched itself at her. Clawing wildly, it knocked her over. Kagome screamed, but it came out faint, since her face was buried in its fur. She pulled away and flung herself toward her bag, which was lying near the well.
When she was finally able to roll over to her bag, she used one hand to search blindly through it, and the other to shield her face from the demon's blows. She cried out as it cut a gash in her upper arm. Then she felt her fingers close around what she had been searching for: an arrow. She swung her arm around and thrust the arrow threw the demon, hoping she got it in the heart directly, and that she wouldn't end up hurting herself even more in the process.
She let out a breath as she felt the demon's body go limp. She swallowed and noticed blood had been sprayed into her mouth, and shuddered at the bitter taste. Then she meekly pushed the dead demon off her with the end of her fingers.
She looked at it for a moment, and saw it was a wolf demon. More wolf looking than human though, not like Koga. It had black fur, with two socks on its feet, and white markings on the side of its face, as well as a white tipped tail. 'I sure hope it wasn't part of Koga's pack.' She thought. 'But what would one of Koga's pack members be doing all the way out here? And why would it attack me? Well it wouldn't, so it must not have known Koga then…' She shrugged it off, literally shrugging, and felt a sharp pain in her arm.
"Oh!" She cried out. "That hurt…" She looked at her arm, and saw it was bleeding almost profusely. She grimaced. "At least it's the only wound I have. I can still walk." She decided to go to the next village. The doctor there would know exactly how to deal with a demon wound. Plus, in her time, she would need to go to the hospital. And that would be hard to explain. They would have to say it was some rabid dog or something, and then it might even end up on the news!
She stood and clutched her wound, knowing that applying pressure would help stop bleeding. She walked the way she had heard a nearby village was, but soon started to feel dizzy, and began to stumble. When she finally got to the village, she fell to her knees, and someone ran over to her.
"Please… I need help…" She said weakly.
"Of course!" The kind woman who had come to her said, and turned and ran to get someone. Then she returned with an elderly woman and two men. The men picked Kagome up off the ground and carried her into the old woman's hut (when I think of two guys picking her up I picture the movers from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. lol)
They set her down on a cot, and she looked to the old woman, "My stuff, it's… by the well."
"She's lost to much blood." The kind woman whispered to the old woman.
The old woman nodded and said to Kagome, "We'll get your stuff dear, rest now." Kagome sighed and fainted.
"Sesshomaru-sama?"
"Yes Rin?" Sesshomaru said in his expressionless voice and stayed staring ahead.
"Why is Sesshomaru-sama sending Jaken away?" Rin asked.
"Because, Jaken is going to find me a mate." Sesshomaru said, still wondering if it was a good idea.
"A mate? Like a wife?" Rin asked.
"Yes."
"Oh goody!" Rin exclaimed. "Sesshomaru is getting married!" She bounced up and down giddily. "Will I be in the wedding?"
"Yes, you will be the flower girl if you like." Sesshomaru smiled slightly as he looked down on Rin.
"Yay, yay, yay! Oh I cant wait!" Rin clapped her hands and started bouncing again. But then her happy facial expression turned to one of confusion. "But how will Jaken know what Lord Sesshomaru wants?"
"Rin, please stop talking like youre asking someone else this." Sesshomaru's eyebrow twitched slightly with irritation.
"Yes Sesshomaru." Rin nodded with solemn patience.
"Jaken will know who to bring back." Sesshy said, answering her question.
"If you say so." Rin said doubtfully.
Jaken sighed heavily. "I don't understand why Lord Sesshomaru wants a wife so badly, but if he insists, I'll find him a suitable demon to marry." He thought aloud in his annoyingly shrill voice (rolls eyes i hate his voice!).
He started off into the forest, in search of a strong, female demon. He wandered through it for a couple days without even a trace of a demon's scent. Then as he neared a village, he felt the presence of an imposing wolf demon. He sniffed the air, "Female." He whispered, and walked faster on his little legs.
Once he arrived at the village, a group of men looked at him. One pointed and exclaimed, "Look, a little imp demon!"
Jaken used his staff to fend off any humans that came at him. Finally they stopped and demanded, "What do you want, you pest!" Yelled a women.
"Your demon." He said calmly.
"We have no demon here!"
Kagome woke up, "Where am I?" She wandered aloud. She was lying on a cot inside a small hut. She sat up, she could hear commotion outside. Kagome got off the cot and walked silently to the doorway and moved the cloth out of her way.
Looking out, she saw the villagers standing in front of a small green demon with a staff that had a double-headed skull-like thing on top. There were scorched bodies on the ground he had caused.
"We have no demon here!" One woman yelled out defiantly.
She walked out, tall and proud, "What do you think, that I'm a human?"
"What do you think, that I'm a human?" A commending voice said from behind the villagers.
Jaken looked through them and saw the demon he had sensed: A beautiful black wolf demon. She had black pointed ears atop her head, half hidden in long, flowing black hair. She had dark, mischievous eyes, and tanned skin, like she had been out in the sun all her life. With two white streaks on one cheek, and a single white streak on the other, and sharp canine teeth, as well as claws, she appeared to be an upper-class demon.
She also had feet turned into delicate paws at the ankle, one black and one white that were equipped with claws, (the ones on her hands were more like InuYasha's, just long, pointy nails) and a black tail with a white tip.
She was wearing a white fur skirt and another white fur cape like thing over a brown corset-like shirt. No shoes, unless you count the white leg warmers (i'm thinking of the things Koga wears. i'll just call them leg warmers, but i don't think that's what they are) And she also had a sword hanging at her side. (its like Ayame in the episode The Female Wolf Demon and the Lunar Rainbow Promise is wearing. btw- please don't ask how she got in those clothes, but it'd be weird seeing a wolf demon in a green school uniform, plus Jaken would recognize it)
"Who are you?" Jaken asked. 'She's perfect! I have to take her back to Lord Sesshomaru! '
"Loa." She said proudly. (feh… yea, i couldn't think of anything else! plus, it stands for lover of anime, so its perfect! that and it's my (other), s/n .)
"Where's the girl?" Someone from the crowd called out.
"What girl?" Loa asked.
"The one that had been in that hut! You killed her!"
"Get them!" A man yelled, and they all rushed them.
Loa snatched Jaken off the ground, and jumped over the on-coming mob of angry villagers. She landed on the other side, and ran off into the forest, easily loosing them. Finally she set Jaken down. "Where do you come from, wolf demon Loa?" He asked abruptly.
"From the upper mountain range. I was in a pack called Thias." She answered him.
"Why aren't you with them anymore?"
"I was run out when I lead the pack into dangerous territory for food. The alpha male and female, which happened to be my parents, were killed. I wandered down here, and attacked a human girl for food, I could smell lots of it on her. I must have killed her, I can't really remember though. But then I woke up in that village…" She trailed off, but then seemed to snap back to reality, "And where are you from? What's your name?"
"I'm Jaken. I travel with my master, Lord Sesshomaru, and a young human girl, named Rin." Jaken answered her.
"The Lord Sesshomaru? Lord of the Western Lands?" She said in wonder. "I've heard many stories about the great Lord Sesshomaru."
"Yes." Jaken said, smiling smugly. "In fact, I'm here in search of a wife for my Lord."
Loa looked at him suspiciously, "Is that so?"
"Yes, it is. And I'm sure," he paused for drama, "that he would be happy to wed you."
