The Curse of a Half-Demon
-Chapter 7-
The Wolf-Demon: Koga

A guy with long black hair and blue eyes with a tail was walking in the city of Tokyo. And we all know who that is. The wolf-demon Koga! A pack of wolves were with him and everybody was staring at him.

"Why is everybody looking at me? I may be a demon but am I that bad?" Questioned Koga.

Everybody thought having a pack of wolves would be a bad idea to have in the city. Because a couple of wolfs were growling at some of the people.

"Hey! You know better not to growl at people! You only growl at our enemy. Now, let's see where I can find my woman," said Koga. Don't think his woman is Kagome yet. He's single and he hasn't met Kagome.

He's only looking for his woman. And once again we all know who that is later in this chapter. But the question is: where is he going to meet her first? Let's hope it's NOWHERE!

Kagome was still sleeping. She rolled to her injured inside and woke up from the pain she felt from it. When she woke up, she saw Inuyasha sleeping by her bed. Of course, she knew he didn't do anything stupid to her. Even though they hate each other.

She quickly got up and looked at her clock. It was 9 o'clock! She's late for school! How come her mom didn't wake her up? She quickly got out of bed, got her clothes, went to the bathroom to changed and went downstairs to have some breakfast.

Inuyasha just woke up. He first wanted to see if Kagome was all right. But when he looked at the bed, nothing was in it. The first thing he thought of was her heading towards her school. He quickly ran out of her door and ran downstairs. He caught Kagome just in time. She was about to walk out the door.

"You're not going anywhere!" Said Inuyasha.

Kagome looked at him very tiredly. "Why? I have school to go to!" Said Kagome.

"I don't care! You're not well, you're still injured. You need to rest!"

"I'm not staying here! I'm going to school!"

"No you're not"

"Yes I am!"

"No you're not!"

"Yes I am!"

"NO YOU'RE NOT!"

"YES I AM!"

"YOU'RE NOT GOING AND THAT'S FINAL!"

"I AM GOING! AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP ME!"

"ARE YOU STUPID? YOU COULD START BLEEDING AGAIN IF YOU GO!"

"I DON'T CARE AS LONG AS I GO TO SCHOOL!"

"YOU'RE STAYING HERE!"

"NO I'M NOT!"

"YES YOU ARE!"

"STOP YELLING!" Screamed Mrs. Higurashi. She was getting tired of them yelling at each other. They have been fighting ever since they met. And once again, we all know why! "Kagome! Listen to Inuyasha! You're not going to school! You can go to other places but not school! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go to work."

She grabbed her purse and stomped her way out the door. Inuyasha and Kagome just stared at her until she was gone. Kagome took a breath and dropped her bag on the floor. She was about to fall to the floor. But Inuyasha caught her just in time.

"You see! If you go, THIS could've happened to you. You're still so weak from yesterday's battle and you need your rest. Maybe Miroku can help you heal that wound of yours," said Inuyasha. "Or at least pray for your recovery."

"No...I want to stay here," said Kagome.

"Arrgh! Make up your mind! First you didn't want to stay here and now you want to stay here! You're driving me crazy! You either go with me to see Miroku or stay here ALL alone!"

Kagome looked at Inuyasha with tired eyes. She NOW wanted to stay home and she wasn't in the mood for seeing Miroku today. But she did wanted more information on Naraku before they fight in their next battle. She closed her eyes and answered. "Let's go to the church!"

"Finally! Let's go!" He walked her outside carefully. When they got outside, he bends on one knee with his back facing her. "Go on my back! I'll give you a ride there. You can't walk that far in your condition."

She gave him a nod and went on his back. He jumped to building to building until he got to the church. He was trying to be careful for Kagome.

"Excuse me miss! Do you know where I can find a church?" Asked Koga. He asked a very scared woman. She lifts her shaking arm and pointed to the direction where the church is. "Thank you!"

He started to run to the church leaving his pack of wolves behind.

Inuyasha and Kagome arrived at the church. They went inside and saw Miroku at the stand practicing his sermon for next Sunday. Which is in 3 days. When he was done, he saw Inuyasha and Kagome sitting on the bench just staring at him. He walked down the stand and waved to them.

"About time! I was getting bored from your sermon!" Said Inuyasha.

Miroku just stared at him. He then looked at Kagome with a smile on his face. "Are you well Kagome?" Asked Miroku.

"I'm...fine," said Kagome.

"We want to know if you would be gladly to pray for her recovery," said Inuyasha.

"'We?' You want Miroku to pray for my recovery! I didn't say anything about my wound!"

"No but you did want that to close up!"

"I didn't say anything about that either!"

"You have to recover for out next battle!"

"I don't have to do anything! I don't have to take your orders!"

"You don't have to but you know I'm right! You do want to recover for your next battle!"

Kagome didn't say anything. She was trying to think what she should say next but couldn't think of any. He was right. She did want to recover for her next battle. She just looked away from him and looked at the ceiling.

"Kagome...can you come with me to the front of the room?" Asked Miroku with his arms crossed.

She looked at him and said: "Sure...anything to stay away from him," answered Kagome. She got up and walked with him to the front of the room. She had to walk slowly because of her wound.

When they got to the front, he got a cup of what seems to be in is some holy water.

"If you drink some of this, it could heal your wound faster. This kind of holy water has a healing power that can heal twice as fast then letting the wound heal itself," explained Miroku.

He gave her the cup and she held it. She was about to drink it until someone banged the door open. Kagome, Inuyasha, and Miroku looked at the person who banged the door.

"Hey! Is there a monk in here?" Yelled the guy.

Miroku took a few steps forward. "Yeah, I'm the monk," said Miroku.

The guy looked at Miroku and then looked at Kagome behind him. Suddenly, his heart was beating for happiness and love. He ran to Kagome and held both of her hands.

"You will be my woman!" He said. Everybody gasped when he said that. They all just stared at him blankly with their mouths open.

"Excuse me?" Questioned Kagome. "Who are you?"

"My name is Koga the wolf-demon! And you are?" Said Koga.

"Kagome Higurashi...what did you say earlier?"

"You will be my woman!" He said again.

"Um...sorry, but I'm not any guy's woman until I marry that guy."

"Then you will marry me!"

"WHAT?" Yelled Kagome, Miroku and Inuyasha. Kagome was frozen and couldn't move. While Koga just held her close to him rubbing her back. She didn't notice that.

Inuyasha growled at him and got up. He walked towards him with an angry expression. "Hey! No one is marrying anyone! You don't have a right to marry her!" Angered Inuyasha.

Kagome still frozen just listen to the conversation. "Hmph! She's MY woman! Not YOUR woman!" Said Koga.

"Who said she was my woman? I don't even like her!"

"Oh! So there is no reason for her to hang out with you or be your friend."

"She can still hang out with me and be my friend! But not YOUR wife or girlfriend you ugly wolf!"

Koga just stared at him. Inuyasha just has a smirk on his face. But the smirk turned into a frown when he saw the black aura on Koga's face.

"W-What did you say?"

"You heard me!"

Koga let Kagome go and faced Inuyasha. Kagome went behind Miroku to stay far away from the fight as possible.

"You'll pay for what you said of calling me ugly! YOU'RE the one that is ugly!"

"How can I be ugly? I'm a dog-demon! Everybody thinks and says dogs are cute and adorable! But people think wolves are ugly and an enemy because they like to kill and hunt for food!"

"JUST SHUT UP YOU BUTT-HEAD!"

"HOW ABOUT YOU SHUT UP STUPID WOLF!"

"THAT'S IT! I'LL KILL YOU!"

Inuyasha got Tetsusaiga out. Koga was running to Inuyasha getting ready to punch him. When are they going to learn not to fight in a church?)

Inuyasha jumped out of the way and strike at Koga. But he missed Koga by a hair. Inuyasha cut a little tiny bit of his hair.)

That's when Koga did his strong kick at Inuyasha's stomach and he crashed into the wall. He made a few cracks on the wall. They're damaging the church! They're going to get in T-R-O-U-B-L-E!)

Miroku walked in front of Inuyasha and faced Koga. "Stop fighting! You're damaging the church! Keep doing this and you're going to have to pay!" Said Miroku.

"Pay what! I don't have to pay anything! He called me ugly!" Angered Koga.

"That doesn't matter."

"Yes it does! He called me UGLY!"

"I think I know the reason why he said that. Because you ARE ugly!"

"I'm not going to fight a monk! That mutt-face called me ugly first! Get out of the way!"

He started to run to Inuyasha. Miroku got out of the way so he won't get hurt while Koga keeps running. Then from out of nowhere, Kagome jumped in front of Koga sticking her arms out.

"Stop! Stop fighting like Miroku says!" Said Kagome. "Why people never listen to monks?"

Koga stopped and just stared at her. He walked up to her and looked at her straight in the eyes. "Why are you protecting him? You're my fiancée," said Koga.

"I never said I was your fiancée!"

"But...your my woman!"

"I already told you I'm not your woman! Just go before I get really angry!"

Koga just stepped back and walked over to the door. Before he actually left, he looked at her with a smile. "I'll come back for you and make you my woman! See you later Kagome!"

After he left, Kagome ran to Inuyasha who was still in the wall. He didn't move at all. He just dropped Tetsusaiga on the ground.

"Inuyasha...can you hear me? Are you alright?" Asked Kagome.

No answer. Was he dead? He can't be! Just from a single kick like that, he can't die! He was breathing fine. Is he knocked out? She moved his bangs and looked at his face. His eyes are closed.

"He's knocked out. He did get stabbed twice in his stomach by Naraku yesterday," said Kagome.

"His wounds will heal in a couple of days. Demons wounds heal faster then humans. So you won't have to worry about him," said Miroku. "Here! You didn't drink the holy water yet. Inuyasha may be a jerk, but I bet I know deep inside him, he really cares for you. That's why he got mad at Koga when he said for you to marry him."

She took the cup and looked at Inuyasha. "I guess you're right. But how come he doesn't show it?"

"Men don't like to express their feelings of how they feel. They always cover it up with something. For Inuyasha, I say he covers it up with anger."

"He's stubborn and won't admit anything people say to him. I always wonder what's his past. He hasn't told me yet."

"Have you told him about your past?"

Kagome was about to answer until she realized she hasn't either. "No...He knows a little about me. Like I'm not any guy's woman unless I'm married to that guy. How I hate it when he calls me servant."

She drank the holy water and gained a little bit more energy then before. She went to him and let her headrest on his chest. And put her hand on his chest and closed her eyes.

Miroku just stared at her of what she was doing. Did she really care that much about Inuyasha?

'She's getting close to loving him. Kagome...please fall in love with Inuyasha...like he's falling in love you little by little like you are to him. You're his only hope.' Said Miroku. He turned his back from Kagome and did a little prayer for the both of them. 'Dear God...help them both...'

Back at Kagome's house, Shippo is still sleeping in Kagome's bed...
