Clara: *Sob sob* and here I thought you were on my side!!! You are all so meeeeeeean!!!

Chapter 9 Confusing times
Kagome stared at the wolf before her, and she gaped like a fish. Kurama was forgotten for the moment, Kouga was the first to recover from the shock of seeing the miko, "Kagome! What are you doing here!? I thought you were with dog breath!"
Huh? Kagome stared in confusion; I thought he would've been asking me how I could be here in this time, as in how I could be alive after 500 years and that stuff…the question was answered when Kouga next spoke.
He walked over to Kagome and draped a hand on her shoulder, "My woman!!! Can you tell me where I am? I was with my pack some time ago, but then a blue light wrapped around me and I ended up here."
Kurama's eyes widened when the wolf called Kagome his woman. Did he just call Kagome his WOMAN!?? He did not believe what he was hearing, So she is already mated? But then I though she liked Inuyasha, but when he looked at Kagome, she didn't seem to mind Kouga's hand, Kurama felt jealously building up in him.
Just then, Youko spoke up, Kagome is NOT his women! I can't smell a mark on her anyways, so she's not this stupid wolf's woman!
As she put all the puzzles together, Kagome was in total shock, to say the least, at what she found out. What-the? Kouga was pulled from the Sengoku Jidai to modern Tokyo?? Before she could say anything to him, she heard a growl from behind her.
Huh? (A/N: hum…… that's a new twist, ne? I didn't mean for that to happen, but it's funner this way^^)
Turning around she found Kurama glaring at Kouga. That was when she realized the wolf had his arms wrapped around her. She guessed that he had just called her his woman. I'm not stupid. After all, he does that so often that it's gonna be a miracle for me to forget the sequence.
See Kagome, grab Kagome and pull her into an attempted hug and call Kagome his woman, it more or less went in that order with a few variations.
Kagome unwrapped herself from Kouga and said, "How many times do I have to tell you Kouga-kun? I am NOT your woman!! NO WAY IN HELL am I your woman! Alright?"
But again, it was futile. As always, the wolf didn't seem to hear her, and just huffed, "Of course you are my woman! How can you NOT be? I mean, the prince of wolves as your mate, who wouldn't want that!?" Kagome rolled her eyes but did not peruse further, knowing it would be ineffectual.
Kurama couldn't be happier when Kagome declared that she was not Kouga's mate. She is mine! Of course she is not mate to that wolf! ………--WHOA! Did I just say that!? Kurama's thoughts were in jumbles. He had just claimed Kagome to be his, even if it wasn't expressed out loud.
FINALLY! And here you are, wondering WHEN you would get your stubborn mind to realize that you like Kagome.
Kurama sighed, Alright, you win! I DO like her, ok? But that doesn't mean I'm going to tell her! She probably still likes Inuyasha, I've seen the way he looks at her when she's not watching. He obviously likes her, and she is most probably feeling the same way towards the Inu hanyou, since they have traveled together for so long.
Youko growled. You'd just give up? Like that!? She didn't tell you that she loved the Inu, did she? -- Kurama shook his head mentally -- So there you are! She didn't say it, it might not be true! Come on! You've lost the fight without even fighting!
Kurama sighed, Youko was right, he was losing before he began, acting like this.
Kurama snapped back from his conversation when he heard Kagome speak again, "Erm…….Kouga-kun, did you just say that you were surrounded by a blue light and then transported here?"
Kouga nodded, "Yah, that was more or less the thing, I was trying to track down Naraku over the past few days, but he seems to have disappeared, even Kagura and his other offspring seemed to have gone. No traces of smells whatsoever, the ones that we DID find were days old."
Kagome's mouth formed a perfect O, What is happening? Why in the name of the seven hells is Kouga doing in MODERN Japan????? She did not expect an answer, but was surprised that she DID get one. ~That~ said the soft voice of Luminescence, ~Is what happened when Naraku destroyed the binding powers in the well. The power to time travel is very rare, and is extremely powerful. In this case, because the power is free from its constraint, it is now running all over Sengoku Jidai and transporting random people into the future.~
Kagome groaned. Why is this happening!? Isn't it enough that Naraku was here and had destroyed her family? Now she has to deal with people from the past coming into her time. She had a feeling that she knew whoever it is that will be transported to her time. If fate is playing a trick on me, I will make sure that fate is going to be sorry for whatever she has done! (A/N: I'm tempted to add fate into the equation as well……. How about a disembodied voice saying, "I'll take you up on the threat" sound good? Lol…sorry, couldn't resist)
Kagome calmed herself before saying to Kouga, "Well, you see, Kouga, we are not EXACTLY in the Sengoku Jidai that you had left a while ago, we are…….erm……. We are, at the moment, about 500 years into the future from where you were."
As expected, the response came as a loud shout from the Wolf Youkai,
"WHAT!!!????" his expression was half incredulous and half in shock, then he gave Kagome a look that clearly said, 'is-it-me-or-have-you-gone-mad?'. He did not believe one word of what Kagome had said.
That was when Kurama interjected, "As Kagome said, you are 500 years into the future. Now, before things get anymore complicated than it is, why don't we just go back to Kagome's place and have her explain what has happened? I guess she undoubtedly knows what had happened to a certain degree."
They both turned to look at Kagome, and she nodded, So much for shopping, I guess I'll just have to do it tomorrow, wait, tomorrow is SCHOOL!! Oooooo…… how am I going to DO this???
"I guess that's the best choice we have at the moment, Inuyasha's going to be here soon anyways," she turned to Kurama, "I guess your friends are going to be here soon too, right?" Kurama nodded.
They were about to be their way when Kouga FINALLY noticed Kurama's presence and shouted, "WHAT THE!!?? Kagome! Who is this guy!? And why is he with you!!??" Kouga growled low, no one was going to take his Kagome away from him, even if it was some guy that looked more or less like a girl.
Kagome dropped her face onto her hands, this is going to be one LOOOONG journey, "Kouga, meet Kurama, Kurama, meet Kouga. I'm sure you've heard of him, from my travels with Inuyasha, Kouga saved me several times, and well……. He is a friend, sorta. Kouga, Kurama is also a youkai, and well, he is a friend of mine, also from this time frame." They both looked at each other with discontent, and Kagome was forced to stifle another groan. This is worse that Kouga and Inuyasha, at least then the two TALKED, now it was just like a staring contest and the tension was almost suffocating her.
~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~
SORRI!! I know you will kill me for this, but still, I need to end here, because if I don't sleep now I'll die tomorrow, so……..what do you think? I know it's gone a bit weird, and not to mention it needs more action, I think I'll write an action scene just for the sake of it^^ I might change the genre into Drama/Romance rather than Action/Adventure though…… I'll see^^ anyways, I'll not be updating anytime soon, the soonest will be the week after next. Or maybe I'll be able to update sooner, because one of the hostels we are staying in had computer and internet!! *cheers *
Thank you Halcyon Clouds who helped me Beta, she truly did a wonderful job of it^^ and I'm happy now that she's helping me correct all the grammatical errors^^ (to all those who read Hikaru no Go fics, try hers, they are REALLY good if I do say so myself^^ and to those that DO read her fics and know about her, she is NOT a boy as most of you think!!! SHE is a Girl!!
To my reviewers:
Artemis the Goddess: Chapter 9 updated!!^^ I hope you enjoyed it^^
Diana: Erm………… good night? *watches as Diana gets dragged away*……well then, that's interesting…….
Inu Youkai-Hime: can I convince you to post another chapter?? Please??? I'll be nice and make the next chapter longer? Please please? or maybe I can TRY, try mind you, to get Dessy to update sooner^^ though I can't say anything about that^^
Ladyofthedragon1: Yes, wimpy wolf is here^^ I wonder about Inu-chan's reactions *evil glint in eyes *
Arrow-card: I know what you mean, I like him as well, he's like a lost soul just waiting for someone to come and save him, but after waiting so long he has finally lost hope, but of course, Kagome is here^^ and with her, well…… let's just say, you'll be surprised.
SerenityRules: Oh, surprised is not the word for it, I don't think he's fully comprehended what has happened, he will be UTTERLY surprised later on^^ he is still in denial of course^^ what can you expect?
K: Kouga, Kurama and Kagome eh? Well…… I would fully expect it to be Kagome, Kurama and Inuyasha^^ THAT would make it more interesting, then you could add an Undead Miko into the equation……
Kagome11492: I was thinking about Yin Yang when I did this, you remember that part of light was in darkness, i.e. the moon, and part of darkness was in light, the shadows. Darkness and Light, in truth, ARE lovers. At least that's what I think, and because they are both within each other, then as one suffers, the other will as well…though that is not really the point I'm trying to make in this story^^ What I want to show is that, not all evil are truly evil at heart, there is always a REASON why it is the way it is^^ (ok…. I'm getting complicated)
Crimson Hawk: I updated^^ thank you for the review^^ I'm glad you like it^^ hope this chapter isn't too crappy………
D: Don't kill me *cringes* please!!! I updated!!!
