Story: Change of Body
NO, no one is going to die (except some unimportant people, whom I don't even know)
As for Inuyasha, he's coming . . . VERY soon . . .
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Chapter Thirteen
Inuyasha's POV (A/N what did I tell you?)
I passed unseen through the crowds of people fighting. It was a miracle; I was the only one with long red hair and emerald eyes. But then, they were too preoccupied with their fight.
I was in search of Shuuichi, whom I knew MUST be here. If he killed himself in MY body. . . I'll kill him . . . Wait . . . wouldn't he already be dead?
I grinned at my stupidity. Then I walked into a clearing, detecting a whiff of gunpowder. I looked in, nearly gasping. It was Kagome, Shuuichi, and a silver fox! Wait. Kouga.
I felt a deep hatred for my arch rival. Kagome – my best friend. Shuuichi – well, I couldn't call him friend, but he DID have my body, correct? I really couldn't care less about the fox, but the first two reasons were enough.
Not making a sound, I strained to hear what he was saying, the arrogant bastard. "Now, Inuyasha, either you disobey and make me shoot, or you get on your knees and beg for mercy. Now!"
Shuuichi was whispering in a voice filled with sorrow and loathing. "I will not."
I admired his courage. Not many would stand up to a maniac holding a gun. Kouga twisted, turning to a paralyzed Kagome. "Now, babe, would you rather I take a chip out of you and make him go to his knees, or just kill him outright?"
That – monster! Was he so bloodthirsty for revenge? I thought he LIKED Kagome! I was poised to attack. She was stammering, "N-not Inuyasha. Please."
Kouga's insane eyes widened, and he gave a manic laugh. "You then!"
The fox – I think Shuuichi called it Yoko? – jumped up, biting his arse. I grinned, fighting the urge to laugh, even though it was really serious. Kouga cried in outrage, eventually knocking Yoko unconscious; he couldn't be dead with just one kick of the boot, right?
He turned to Kagome again. His hand twisted; he pulled the trigger. I jumped out of my hiding place, but Shuuichi got to her first. The bullet surged through his shoulder. I heard him scream.
As Kagome was running, crying, "Inuyasha!", I was running to the Kouga. "That was too low, even for you, Kouga!"
I twisted him, grabbing his gun, but I couldn't hold him. He ran like a frightened cat. Now I turned to the real problem at hand.
The blood was pouring out of the wound. The real Shuuichi was breathing rapidly. I whispered, "Hang on Shu— Inuyasha."
Kagome turned to me. "We need to get him to the hospital, Shuuichi!"
Didn't she know she was addressing the "prince" of the high school? I grinned inwardly, but just said, "Yes."
I carried my body, walking to the nearby hospital. I heard him mutter, "Thank you, Inuyasha," before he got heavier, fainting. I smiled. He would live.
*~*~*~*~ After the fight ~*~*~*~*
Kikyo's POV
I screamed at Naraku. "We gave information to the Thunder Riders that THIS would be a vulnerable time, and yet you STILL couldn't kill at least ONE of those annoying pests!"
I admit, I WAS a bit insane. My conscience told me, /Killing is bad/ while my other conscience whispered, /it's just a stupid crush/, but the biggest voice in my head told me, /IF I DON"T GET MY WAY, EVERYONE SUFFERS!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!/ (A/N quote from someone's backpack, I don't know whose.)
Naraku shifted his feet. "A lot of their gang was defeated."
I continued yelling, "None of the important ones! You couldn't kill Shuuichi, Inuyasha, whom I knew would come, Hiei, Miroku, Kuwabara, OR Yusuke Urameshi!!!"
He looked away. "So I guess my date with Kagura is off, then?"
He was SO disappointed. Stupid boy! Was that all he was thinking about the whole time? I screeched, "YES, YOU MORON!!!"
*~*~*~*~ Next day ~*~*~*~*
Shuuichi's POV
The light was streaming in through an unfamiliar window. Numb pain throbbed through my wounded shoulder. I groaned, getting up. I saw Kagome, Hiei, and Inuyasha crowding around me. I scanned the room, demanding, "What is this, a funeral?"
They smiled (not including Hiei) and backed away. Wait. Kagome was here? We have to be careful with names then . . . I said, "Is everyone okay?"
Inuyasha scoffed. "You nearly died and you're worried about OUR safety?"
I smiled. "Well, it was bloody."
I then saw a nurse come in with a pitcher of water. "You were lucky, young man, that your friends carried you in here on time. Any later and you might've died of blood loss."
Yeah, sure, doctors always say that to make you feel gratified. But I was grateful, anyways. Who could wish for better friends? The nurse lost her formality, saying, "You have a visitor. We normally don't allow animals in, but . . ."
I saw silver. I exclaimed, "Yoko!"
The silver fox jumped onto my lap, whining. I stroked his fur, sighing. Then I said to Inuyasha, "Thank you again . . . Shuuichi."
I didn't feel so bad calling him by my own name anymore. I mean, I've actually gotten used to being called Inuyasha. I turned to Hiei, in Miroku's body. "Hiei's not here?"
I meant Miroku. Hiei looked around. "Hn."
Kagome looked down."He couldn't make it. But since when were you a friend of his?"
Hiei made another "Hn," as Kagome glared at him. I smiled. It was Hiei's way of saying he was glad that I was okay but that he didn't want to say it. "Well, I thought he would, because, well, we are . . ."
Inuyasha finished, "Part of the same gang."
Kagome looked down again. "I see."
Hiei told them, "I have to talk to, er, Inuyasha, alone."
They all (except for Yoko, who was still resting on my lap) went outside. Hiei took my hand, a very affectionate gesture for him. He said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance, so don't expect me to do it often."
I grinned; I knew what it was. He continued, "I apologize for dragging you into the fighting. I also apologize for getting you hurt."
I argued, "You didn't drag me into the fight. Inuyasha's body did."
His eyes widened, then lowered. He said thoughtfully, "I may have an idea . . ."
I arched an eyebrow. He explained, "About who cast this spell on us."
He told me of the ketchup incident and of how Kikyo mentioned Miroku's body and stuff. I said thoughtfully, "It may be her way of getting revenge. For something that happened on the first day of school, most likely . . ."
Hiei nodded. "And maybe . . . she's not alone . . ."
Before I could answer, the door flew open. It was Sango.
"HOUSHI-SAMA!!! I'm SO happy that you're alright! HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!"
She reached over, hugging Hiei enthusiastically. I stifled a laugh. She was sugar high again.
Hiei choked out, ". . . C-can't . . . breathe . . . Let . . . go . . ."
Sango squeezed him tighter, until he cried out, "LET GO OF ME, WOMAN!!! I'M DYING OF AN OXYGEN SHORTAGE HERE!!!
She let go, tears streaming down her face. "I'm so glad that you're not hurt."
I murmured, "You also have an obvious way of showing it, too."
Hiei threw a dirty look at me. I laughed. The atmosphere was easy again.
Then the nurse came in again. "You have another visitor."
Everyone looked up, even Yoko. It was a man with long silver hair, wearing a suit. Inuyasha's older brother, Sesshoumaru.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I rather like the ending . . . I told you that the fight would be over in two chapters. How was it? Review!
