Ch. 19

The Plan Being Set into Action!

What Koga is a Part of it!

------------------------------------

An Hour Later…

"You're awfully quiet, InuYasha. What's wrong?", Himiko asks.

(I guess I'm still shocked over seeing my mother again), he replies.

"You do have a right to be", she says.

(So what is the plan to save Kagome?), InuYasha asks.

"We're going to use a distraction to save her", she answers, "Oh, good Suka, did you find him?", the golden falcon lands on her shoulder.

The falcon chirps happily.

"Show the way, Suka", Himiko says, spreading her wings, then picks InuYasha up and flies into the air, following the bird.

------------------------

Five Minutes Later…

"Suka, lets land in that clearing!", she calls, pointing.

"Chirp!", Suka agrees, flying downwards to land.

As soon as her feet touch the ground, she puts InuYasha down.

(Who is he?), InuYasha asks.

"An annoying wolf demon you know and hate", she scoffs.

(Huh!), he utters.

Himiko quickly puts on a light grey cloak and draws up the hood over her head.

A few moments later Koga enters the clearing.

"Young man, I heard that you are in love with a young woman named Kagome, is that right?", Himiko asks, imitating an old woman.

"Yes, that's true, what is it to you, old woman!", Koga snorts.

"The young woman; Kagome, is marrying a man named Godai tomorrow at the shrine ruins", she replies.

"She can't, she is my mate!", he growls.

(Damn bastard! Always thinking that!), InuYasha curses, then sneaks behind Koga and lifts up his hind-leg and pees on him.

(A/N: Revenge is sweet! Expectedly when the receiver doesn't know it's you!)

"Damn dog! He pissed on me!", Koga yells.

"Inya, get over here! Bad dog!", Himiko scorns, "I'm sorry sir, he doesn't like strangers".

"Your lucky lady, that your stupid dog won't be killed by me", Koga hisses, and then leaves.

(Why did you stop me, Himiko!), he retorts.

"One, he is our distraction to rescue Kagome and two, do you want to end up dead!", she says, "But good job on peeing on him".

(Thank you), he smiles.

Himiko starts laughing as she removes her hood.

(I think Kagome won't be so happy that I did that though), he says.

"I don't think so either", she laughs.

InuYasha suddenly falls onto his side and starts whimpering.

"InuYasha!", Himiko gasps.

(Hi…mi…ko…), he utters, his gold eyes flashes dark brown.

"I was afraid this was going to happen, hang on InuYasha", she pleads.

InuYasha blacks out.

-----------------------------

An Hour Later…

InuYasha awakens to find himself being carried, flying over tree-tops.

"You're awake", Himiko says.

(Himiko, what happened to me?), he asks.

"It was a side-effect of the curse", she replies, "When the female doesn't think about the male under the curse, his mind or thought pattern reduces to that of a normal dogs; dumb and lame, and thinks of nothing else, but eating, sleeping and playing fetch".

(Then why is my mind still here?), he questions.

"Look at what is around your neck".

(Huh?), he looks to find a thin rope with the dog tag from the collar dangling from it, (The tag from the dog collar, how is that preserving my mind?).

"The tag was touched by Kagome and is filled with the love she feels for you. That is what is saving your mind", she answers.

(Oh, really?), he blushes underneath the fur.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner", Himiko apologizes.

(Uh, it's ok), he says.

"Let's land for the night", she lands in another clearing far from the clearing where they encountered Koga, "Don't worry about Koga, I can fly faster then he can run, even with the jewel shards in his legs".

(I wasn't worried), InuYasha says, (That idiot couldn't find his way out of a lake even with shore in sight).

"That was funny", she laughs, "You better get some rest, we have a big rescue mission tomorrow".

(Yep, night Himiko), he says.

"Goodnight, InuYasha".
