DISTANT LESSONS CHAPTER 2: DOG FEUD
Howls filled the air. The sound of heavy paws hitting the ground and there was a sound of human footsteps. Inuyasha stood still waiting for what ever demons too emerge from the trees. Shippou was behind Sango shaking with fear. Kagome stood still her bow at ready. A demon with long black hair tied back and was wearing a beige headband. What showed out the most was the demon's pointed ears. The demon was surrounded by a pack of wolves.
"What are you doing here Koga!" Said Inuyasha disappointed. He had been ready for a good battle.
Koga, the leader of a wolf demon gang. Since Kagura killed most of his gang in their first fight, he swore to kill Kagura. Koga has Shikon stones embeded in his legs and can run faster than the speed of wind.
"I have as much right of being here as you. Probably even more," Koga sneered.
Koga looked away from Inuyasha satisfied that he had ticked him off. He stared at Kagome.
"You weren't thinking of shooting me with your arrow now were you Kagome?" He asked sweetly.
Kagome lowered her arrow and smiled.
"Hello Kouga," She replied feeling foolish.
"Uhhh.. do you you think you could call of your wolves Koga?" Sango asked pointing at the wolves who were growling at Shippou.
"Some demon he is," Said Kouga.
"What the hell do you want!" shouted an irritated Inuyasha.
"Can't a friend pass by and say hello?" Koga said with a fake innocence.
Inuyasha's gold eyes narrowed and he growled.
"Control yourself Inuyasha," Said Miroku holding his golden staff in front of the dog- demon.
Koga walked over to Kagome and took her hands in his.
"Kagome it's not too late. You can still come with me. You can leave these losers and travel with me," said Koga sweetly.
Kagome's cheeks turned red.
Inuyasha lunged at Koga and this time Miroku let him. He jumped high in the air and descended with his claws ready to slash Koga.
"Iron Reiver Soul Stealer!" He cried.
Before Inuyasha could scratch Koga, one of the wolves jumped up and knocked him to the ground. Although he landed on his feet, his anger rose even more. Koga's rude laughter rang through Inuyasha's dog ears. Inuyasha gripped his sword ready to attack again. But Koga sighed and started to walk away.
"Hey! Don't you walk away from me!" yelled Inuyasha.
"Feh," Koga muttered as he walked away with his wolf pack following close behind him.
Shippou, Miroku, Kirara and Sango walked over to Inuyasha with caution. He was dangerous when he was mad. Kagome stomped over to him.
"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM INUYASHA?" She yelled.
The dog demon turned around.
"WHAT? YOU ACTUALLY LIKE HAVING HIM AROUND. BUGGING YOU TO TRAVEL WITH HIM?" Inuyasha yelled back.
Kagome's face softened.
"Why are you always so jealous?" She asked annoyed.
Inuyasha's face broke into a funny look with his gold eyes wide.
"Why should I be jealous? You could travel with him and become his mate for all I care," Inuyasha retorted.
Kagome tried to hide her hurt feelings.
"So what you're saying is that you don't care about me?" Kagome asked in a soft voice.
Inuyasha felt bad but he was too mad to apologize. He really did care for Kagome and if anything were to happen to her…
Inuyasha watched Kagome's eyes fill with tears.
"Fine then if that's how you feel then I will just travel on my own. You just try and find the jewel shards without me," She said while turning and running away.
"Kagome wait come back!" cried Shippou.
Sango and Miroku stopped her.
"Kagome don't do this stay with us. It's dangerous out there especially on your own," Sango said concerned.
"Kagome you know that when Inuyasha is in a bad mood, he says and does things he really doesn't mean," Stated Miroku.
Kagome did not care. When ever she was around Inuyasha she sometimes ended up being hurt. Mostly by catching Inuyasha with Kikyou.
"I can't stay. I just cannot. All Inuyasha cares about is Kikyou and jewel shards. He does not care about me. It is like he is using me," Kagome said softly with tears falling down her cheeks.
Miroku put a comforting hand on Kagome's shoulder. Kagome moved away.
"I'll be back one day. I just don't know when," She said.
She started to walk away. There was nothing more that Sango, Shippou or Miroku could do. Kagome was leaving to travel and battle on her own. They had no idea when she would be back or if she would be back.
