NOTE: I am simply writing this story because I like the show Inuyasha a lot and because I admire Rumiko Takahashi a lot. In no way do I have any rights to Inuyasha, its characters, etc...I just like to write stories based on the characters...

Chapter 2 MHYK

Kikyo has just kissed Inuyasha. He is startled and pushes her away. Inuyasha tries his best to wipe away the kisses that did not belong to Kagome.

Inuyasha: Kikyo? What is the meaning of this?

Kikyo: Prince Inuyasha– I... I love you.

Inuyasha stares at Kikyo for a couple of seconds and tries his very best to not only take in Kikyo's confession clearly, but also to not show his embarrassment. His cheeks have turned completely red and he is beginning to stutter upon speaking.

Inuyasha: Ki...Ki...Kikyo...I...!

Kikyo suddenly wraps her arms around Inuyasha and embraces the life out of him XD

Inuyasha: Ki...Ki...Kikyo... He suddenly thinks about what Kagome would think...KIKYO STOP!

FLASH!CLICK!CLICK! There is a loud rustle behind the bushes.

Inuyasha: Who's there?

Kikyo: Prince Inuyasha, she batters her eyelashes, how would you like a memento to remember our sweet embrace by?

She calls out to Naraku, one of her butler's son, to come out from hiding. Naraku was hiding out in the bushes the whole time, waiting for the right moment to snap a photo worthy enough to blackmail Prince Inuyasha. Years ago, Naraku would have never tried such a prank on someone, especially a prince! But awhile back, he had fallen in love with Kikyo and would do whatever it took to make it happy, even if it meant him being thrown away into royal prison to win her approval.

Inuyasha: Kikyo! What is the meaning of this? and you...Naraku? You both will be thrown into royal prison for peforming such a treacherous task!

Kikyo: Prince Inuyasha, I will do whatever it takes to make you mine...even if I have to resort to blackmail.

Kikyo suddenly feels a strong breeze and looks across in time to see Inuyasha run up to Naraku, steal the photo, and rip it to hundreds of pieces.

Naraku: Prince Inuyasha, you didn't like that particular photo? Would you rather prefer this one instead? Another replica of the previous photo pops out of the camera. You see Prince Inuyasha, this is an extraordinary camera indeed. It can produce multiples, or should I say a million copies of the previous photo at my command. You can shred the next 100,000 copies if you want and you still wouldn't be halfway. Oh, what a camera it is...

Inuyasha is even more angry and attempts to destroy the camera. Before he is able to destroy it ( and Naraku as a matter of fact ), Kikyo recites a magical word and BAM! Inuyasha is lying flat on the ground in pain. ( note: Kikyo had been studying a little blackmagic)

Kikyo: Naraku, go! I'll meet you at our spot, now go! Naraku runs off laughing.

Prince Inuyasha, I'm sooo sorry...let me help you up.

Inuyasha: Stay away from me! Are you some kind of witch or something? Did you put a curse on me or something? You Kikyo, will be condemned to the royal prison at once!

Kikyo: I don't think you understand the situation Prince Inuyasha. You see this photo that I possess? She pulls out a copy that Naraku gave to her before he left. She walks over to Inuyasha, bends down and puts the photograph close to Inuyasha's face. The photo clearly shows Kikyo and Inuyasha in an embrace. You wouldn't want the whole kingdom to see it would you? In fact, I do have enough copies to pass out to everybody. In fact, she narrows her eyes, you wouldn't want Kagome to see it would you? She puts the photo away in her pocket and is now staring intently at Inuyasha's face. Instead of an angry expression plastered on his face, he looks sad.

In Kikyo's mind: Why is he looking like that! Isn't he angry? Doesn't he want to rip me up to shreds?

Inuyasha is now slowly getting up. He dusts off his golden/red hatori and straightens out his silver tresses.

Inuyasha: Kikyo...his voice is more quiet and shakier than usual. He takes a moment before diverting his eyes to stare directly at Kikyo. Kikyo, whatever you may do, please don't show the photo to Kagome. What do you want me to do to make this all go away?

Kikyo is outraged. She wasn't expecting Inuyasha to just give in. She wanted to see him grovel.

Kikyo: Are you mad? Do you love Kagome that much?

Inuyasha: Kikyo, I have always loved your sister. I was going to tell her today, but...

Kikyo: Until I sabotaged your little get together?

Inuyasha: Kikyo, give me the terms. I don't ever want to see Kagome cry because of me.

Kikyo: You're willing to sacrifice your dreams of telling her you love her to not see her cry? Inuyasha is serious about his decision and nods.

Kikyo: you're more pathetic than I thought. This is what you must do for me...
