Disclaimer: Sorry about yesterday, I accidentally uploaded the wrong thing so I was trying to get it fixed and it was making me mad!
Inuyasha kept his eyes on the trees. He couldn't sleep. The wind was blowing, but Inuyasha knew his senses better then the monk did. The wind wasn't that bad, not blowing hard enough to blow the trees like this.
Inuyasha sat up.
"What-" Miroku started but Inuyasha stuck up his finger telling him to hush.
"Do you hear that? That ringing?" Inuyasha whispered. He put his hand on his sword, and the other covering an ear. All they heard was the ringing, but what they saw was different. Lightning was quickly crawling across the ground, aiming for Kagome and Inuyasha. Inuyasha got up and grabbed a hand full of Kagome's sleeping bag and jumped towards Miroku. The lightning missed and hit a tree, leaving a hole at the bottom. Inuyasha growled and got up again. He pulled out his Tetsusaiga and stared towards where the attack came from.
"Wake up Kagome." Inuyasha said. Miroku nodded and placed his hand where Kagome's butt would be through the sleeping bag.
"Kagome….Kagome…..wake up!" Miroku said softly. Kagome's eyes opened half way.
"Inu…yasha?" her eyes fully opened, Miroku smiling down at her. Kagome smiled back, then looked down to where Miroku's hand was. Her eyes widened. She glared at the monk and pulled back her hand, and let go. 'SMACK'
"Ah!" Miroku yelled, jumping back.
"Lecherous monk! I didn't say grope her! I said wake her up!" Inuyasha yelled looking back at the monk with his hand over his swollen cheek.
"Well first I wanna know why you told him to wake me up, and second why you told him!" Kagome yelled back.
"Someone's attacking us, that's why!" Kagome just nodded and grabbed her bow and arrow, Sango had grabbed her Hairatoksu a long time ago and Miroku stood up and grabbed his staff leaning against the tree Kagome slept by.
A huge red creature stepped out of the clearing of the forest. It had red horns on top of his head, a huge nose with a ring through the nostrils, and it was huge. It's eyes had no life. It was a demon of hell.
The demon took a couple huge steps towards the gang. It was about twenty-five feet away now. It smirked towards Inuyasha, looking back at him then to Kagome. Sango stepped forward, ready to use her boomerang at any moment. Inuyasha stopped her. He wanted Kagome to do this.
"Miko…." The demon's eyes widened and his smirk was as long as his weapon. To top that off….he was ugly…."DIE!" The demon took off towards Kagome. Her mouth dropped slightly but she couldn't get scared. She had to stay brave. She lifted her bow, aiming the arrow towards the demon's nose. She got off track though, the demon was moving back and forth so she couldn't get a good shot. She let the arrow fly, the blue flames surrounding it. The demon stopped in its tracks, remembering such power from a miko long ago. It through up its hands, guarding its face from where the arrow was aimed. It went through the demon's hands but missed its face completely, only tearing through the flesh at the top. It left a small dent in the demon's head. Inuyasha sighed.
"I missed." Kagome pouted.
"Yeah well this time aim for him, not a tree!" Kagome glared at him.
"I'm trying! It's hard to aim when he moves back and forth!" she yelled back. Inuyasha smirked.
"Focus." Inuyasha replied. She has to learn how to do it on her own sometime…
Why is he making me do all the work! He could help some! She aimed her arrow again. The demon's eyes grew wide, making him look creepy. It charged for her. She placed her arrow where she needed it, focusing on the demon's movement. Left, right, right, left, forward. She knew his movements now and waited for him to be in the perfect spot to let her arrow fly.
The arrow was surrounded by the blue flames. The arrow turned left with the demon, and hit him where the jewel lay inside his flesh. The demon's mouth dropped.
"How…." Was all the demon could get out, before falling dead on the ground.
Kagome stood there, she had no clue how she just did that. Something to over her, it was power. It was the will to do it. The whole gang walked over to the demon's corpse. Kagome leaned over, picking up the sharde that fell out of the demon and purifying the demon's aura I think that's what it is…...
She placed the new sharde in the small glass bottle that hung around her neck. She smiled. She had gotten this one. With out any help she had successfully killed a demon and gathered a sharde.
Kagome and Inuyasha were in the back walking together. Kagome bent down and grabbed a couple flowers that just bloomed a couple days ago.
"What are you doing?" Inuyasha asked with his arms in his kimono sleeves.
"Picking flowers." Was all Kagome said. Sango yawned. They hadn't gotten any sleep. They had to move away from their last camp spot in fear that more demons were lurking around there.
"Can we stop now? We've been walking for hours." Sango asked, yawning again.
"Yeah, whatever." Inuyasha said. They walked away from the dirt road into the forest and Inuyasha sat down and leaned back against the trunk of a tree. "What are ya doin' now wench!"
Kagome cocked her eyebrow. He put up his hands in defence.
"I'm not doing anything." Kagome said. Inuyasha watched as Kagome tied the flower's stem around her wrist, making a flower bracelet. "Give me your wrist." Inuyasha handed her his arm. She tied around a small red flower into a bracelet.
"What is it?" Inuyasha asked. He wanted to tear it off but like Sango said, he better be careful on what he does. He also didn't want to hurt her feelings. H was sort of happy that she gave him one. But he knew in the future he would pay for keeping it on. But he never wanted to hurt Kagome's feelings, and he didn't want to get sat for tearing it off.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome said to the hanyou who was staring down at the flower bracelet around his wrist.
"…."
Miroku and Sango watched as the two sat close to each other. Miroku smirked.
"Th-" he began to say but Sango smacked him in the stomach.
"Shh…." Sango turned back to Inuyasha and Kagome, only to be stopped by Miroku's hand. He placed it under her chin, turning her face towards his. should I, should I not, should I, should I not…..I SHOULD! He leaned in and passionately kissed Sango on the lips. He had been waiting for a moment like this, peaceful night, all alone with Sango.
Her eyes grew wide, but she furthered the kiss and pushed in.
After a minute Sango pulled back. She was blushing furiously but she felt someone watching them. Her eyes grew wide and her mouth dropped. She turned towards Inuyasha and Kagome to see them with wide eyes and their mouth's dropping down to the ground.
"Uh…." Was all Sango could say.
"I…I uh…" Miroku stuttered. This time Inuyasha was the one that got to smirk. Miroku and Sango blushed furiously.
So much for the perfect moment….Miroku thought to him self.
"Good night." Kagome said smiling wide. She knew it. She knew they loved each other. She turned her back to them and laid down in her sleeping bag.
"Good night!" Inuyasha stuck up his nose for a second. He hated all this gushy love stuff but he loved the fact that now he could make fun of Miroku. He leaned back against the tree, stroking the flowers petals. He liked how it tickled the tip of his finger. He closed his eyes and let out a sigh of contempt, thinking of how he longed for that to be him and Kagome.
Kagome tripped over a rock, cutting her knee as she lid it across the ground. She couldn't breathe, she had been running from him for so long. She got up, but saw Inuyasha in front of her. He stood there, holding a small knife in his right hand.
He walked up to her and kneeled down. "Die…" he said in a gruff voice. He took her hand, turned it over and cut her wrist. She screamed and pulled away. She heard the bushes start shaking, then Kikyo stepped out into the clearing. She walked up to Inuyasha, and kissed him passionately.
A tear streamed down Kagome's face. Why was he doing this to her? Inuyasha walked back over to her, grabbed her arms and pulled her over to the same table she had been in when Kikyo was resurrected by Urasuwa sorry I don't know how to spell it.. He pulled her up, making her cut further open. The blood ran down her arm and onto her neck. He placed her onto the tub-like stone table that was filled with the foul smelling liquid. Another few tears streamed down her face. Inuyasha poured in some more of the liquid.
He started chanting stuff that Kikyo had taught him. Kagome felt the soul being sucked out of her. She knew it was over……..
Kagome sat up. She winced when she put pressure on her right hand. She picked it up and turned it over palm-side up. The cut was there, blood streaming down her arm. She had the first aid kit next to her and pulled out another bandage. Soon she had to go home to get a new one because she was running out of supplies. Sango sat up pulling away from Miroku's arm that was around her waist.
Sango walked over to her, examining the cut. She took the bandage from Kagome and started wrapping it around her wrist.
"What happened this time?" Sango whispered once she finished.
"Inuyasha…he cut me…Kikyo, soul…" Kagome couldn't speak. It was only her third dream but it was horrible. They were going to get worse everytime. She knew that. She had to figure out how to get rid of it.
