Chapter 6

Kagome Almost Kidnapped

Shippo was so surprised by how fast his mom enrolled him in school. Shippo was relieved that the school day was finally over and he could go home. His mom was supposed to be out front waiting for him. Since she promised to pick him up but instead he found Kouga. He was leaning against a red sport car 'You have got to be kidding me oh, well what's the worst that can happen?' Shippo wondered rolling his eyes and walking towards Kouga.

"Where's my mom?" Shippo asked.

"She asked me to pick you up and watch over you, until she got back from looking for a job" Kouga said not even looking at Shippo. 'I just had to ask' Shippo thought.

"Well, forget it I'd rather walk home" Shippo said starting to walk away. "Get in the car" Kouga said running in front of him making Shippo stop. "There's no way I'm getting in that car with you. The less time I spend with you the better" Shippo said walking around Kouga.

"Get you're ass in the car now!" Kouga yelled angrily.

"You're not the boss of me, I don't have to listen to you!" Shippo yelled starting to walk off when Kouga grab him. "Get in that car now I'm not going to have a brat like you ruin things between me and your mother" Kouga growled.

"Let go of me!" Shippo yelled struggling to get out of his death grip. Shippo was able to get out of Kouga's hold, but his arm was scratched in the process. Shippo cried out in pain and held his arm trying to stop the bleeding, but it didn't help the cuts were too deep. "Look what you made me do brat" Kouga said angrily trying to see his arm.

"Don't touch me you did this to me!" Shippo yelled stepping back.

"It's you're fault if you would have gotten into the car like I told you to none of this would have happened" Kouga said angrily.

"Go away I'll just walk home" Shippo said crying from the pain. Kouga sighed and ran his hand through his hair. He felt bad for hurting the brat. "Look kid I didn't mean to it was an accident. Now let me take a look at that arm. I promise I won't hurt you and I'll be gentle" Kouga said holding out his hand. Shippo glared at him before willingly giving Kouga his arm.

"Shit that's deep" Kouga mumbled.

"Hold on a second" Kouga said ripping the right arm of his shirt. He cut it into long strips and wrapped Shippo's arm hoping to stop the bleeding. "Thanks" Shippo said lowly not looking at him. "No problem now get in the car please" Kouga said. Shippo nodded and got in the car. "So when are you going to kidnap my mom?" Shippo asked once Kouga got in the car.

"Look brat I mean kid I mean Shippo if it were up to me. I would leave you're mother alone but it's not. I was hired to kidnap you're mom and if I don't I'll be killed" Kouga said looking over at Shippo for a second before turning his attention back on the road. "Who hired you to kidnap my mom?" Shippo asked totally confused why would someone want to kidnap and hurt his mom?

She was the most nicest and kindest person he knew. "Her husband Naraku and also known as you're father" Kouga said.

'Dad?' Shippo thought unable to believe it. "You're lying dad would never hire someone to hurt mom" Shippo said angrily.

'He really doesn't know what's going on poor kid damn. Ayame is affecting me more then I thought but still it is sad. Not just for him but Kagome too wait what am I thinking? I can't let feelings get in way of pursuing the target' Kouga thought pulling into the driveway of Kagome's house. "Just kidding kid if I were to tell you the truth I would have to kill you" Kouga lied getting out of the car.

Kouga pulled out a pair of keys to the house and opened the door. 'She gave him a key to the house already. What is she thinking? She's only been seeing this guy for a few days' Shippo thought going inside. "You're mom should be home in like an hour or two, so till then find something to do and don't bug me" Kouga said making himself comfortable on the couch and turning on the TV.

"Fine with me" Shippo said getting a drink from fridge before heading to his room. 'I might as well do my homework first' Shippo thought getting out his books and things. By the time Kagome came home, Shippo was already done with his homework and playing video games. "Hi Kouga thank you so much for watching Shippo" Kagome said as she came in through the door with pizza and a something on a hanger wrapped in a bag.

"No problem" Kouga said getting up off the couch. "Would you like to stay for dinner? I got pizza" Kagome asked sitting the pizza on the table in the kitchen. "I would like that as long as you're here" Kouga said kissing her hand. Kagome nodded and blushed. "Kagome may I spend the night here? You see my house is being redone today and won't be finished until tomorrow" Kouga asked.

"Ummm sure you can have the spare room" Kagome said smiling. "What!" Shippo yelled coming into kitchen he had heard when his mother came in. When he came out that's when he heard Kouga asking to spend the night and his mom agreeing. Kagome didn't hear her son's out burst she was to busy looking at his arm. "Shippo what happened to your arm?" Kagome asked walking towards him.

Shippo stared at her confused then he realized she was talking about his arm Kouga scratched. He forgotten about it cause the bleeding stopped and the pain numbed away. "Ummm I fell into a thorny bush on my arm" Shippo said. "Are you sure? It doesn't look like falling into a thorny bush could cause cuts like this" Kagome asked taking the strips off his arm.

'O no if mom looks at Kouga's shirt she'll figure it out. Wait minute he's wearing a different he changed at least he can do something right' Shippo thought.

'The kid is lying, why is the kid lying?' Kouga wondered. "Don't worry about it mom it doesn't hurt" Shippo said trying to take back his arm. "Ok, but let's get it cleaned and bandage up ok. Kouga we'll be right back" Kagome said dragging Shippo to the bathroom. "But mom" Shippo whined following his mom against his will "It's going to heal on it's own I am a demon" Shippo said.

"I know but I would feel better knowing that you're wound is bandaged properly and not infected" Kagome said.

"Fine" Shippo said giving in. After Kagome cleaned up Shippo they joined Kouga in the kitchen. Kagome fed Kouga and Shippo and while they were eating. She went and got Kouga's room prepared for the night. Shippo quickly ate and went to his room saying he felt tired and wanted go to bed early.

Kagome said good night to him and when Kouga was done eating. She showed him to his room of where he was going to stay the night, before turning in herself. Kagome showered and put on her night clothes before climbing into and falling asleep. Tomorrow would be the first day at her new job and she made sure to get hours during day while Shippo was at school.

And she didn't want to be late on her first day.

The bag Kagome came home with was her uniform starting tomorrow she would be working at a diner. Part-time while Shippo was at school. It was all she could get at the time and she needed the money badly so she took it. Kouga anxiously waited tonight was night he would put his plan into action. He waited until he heard both Shippo's and Kagome's breathing evened out telling him that they were asleep.

He grabbed his stuff and quietly snuck out of his room making sure not to make a sound. He snuck to Kagome's room and quietly went in. Kagome was sleeping in a silky black nightgown she looked like a goddess. Kouga stalked towards her and stood still when she moved. Kagome sighed and turned on her onto her back before pulling up the blankets and snuggling it's in warmth.

Kouga sighed with relief and stalked closer he stood over her, watching her. He was going to attack but he hesitated he couldn't do. 'What I'm doing I can't do this but if I don't I'll be killed' Kouga thought debating whether or not he should or should not kidnap Kagome. Naraku was excepting him to kidnap Kagome tonight, but he couldn't go through with it.

Kouga sighed and was about to leave when Kagome started to wake up.

Kagome woke up to see Kouga hovering over her with some rope. She was about to scream when Kouga covered her mouth. "I'm not going to hurt you, I'll move my hand if you promise me that you won't scream ok?" Kouga asked. Kagome nodded and Kouga moved his hand. Kagome stared at him with wide eyes filled with fear she couldn't move.

She was too scared to think straight and do the most logical thing.

"You were going to kidnap weren't you? Why? Who are you? Have you been pretending to like me so you could get closer to me? Why? Tell me damn it, don't just sit there" Kagome asked angrily crying. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to I was hired by Naraku to kidnap you and to get you at all cost. I was fine with it at first I didn't know you and thought it would be easy.

But the more I got to know you the more I fell in love with you.

I don't wish to hurt you anymore I tried to deny my feelings for you, but there's no way around it. I'm in love with you" Kouga said trying to get closer to her but she moved back. "Who are you really" Kagome asked still crying. "I'm Kouga Wolf, I'm a full wolf demon and I can run fast. Normally I'm hired to kill, but Naraku was different and he was offering way more then I usually get paid. So I took the job" Kouga said.

"So Shippo was right all long" Kagome said more to herself. "Yes, he was but what I'm telling you is the truth and I need to tell you some things. I'm not planning on kidnapping you or hurting you in anyway. Even if it means my life" Kouga said. Kagome nodded as a signal she was listening and paying attention.

"Naraku isn't going to stop at nothing to get you. You may or may not know this, but he could care less about kid. He is willing to send dangerous people after you like me or like those demons he sent after you at that park. You're kind of safe here, I didn't tell him where you were staying and I don't plan to. Continue wearing perfume it makes it harder to identify you and keep you're hair short.

I didn't tell him exactly how you changed your appearance.

You should be safe here I'm going to throw Naraku off you're trail. I'm going to lie telling him you're some place else far away from here" Kouga said now sitting next to her. "Thank you" Kagome said hugging him. "It's the least I could do for pretending to be someone I'm not, but I really do love you" Kouga said cupping her cheek and kissing her on the lips. "Tell Shippo I didn't mean it, he'll understand farewell Kagome and I wish you luck" Kouga said before running off disappearing.

Kagome sat there shocked and brought her hand to her lips. 'He kissed me, Kouga kissed me wow what a kiss' Kagome thought until she realized that he was gone and what time it was. 'O man I have to wake up early tomorrow. After I drop off Shippo, I have to go to my new job I can't be late on my first day' Kagome thought quickly getting into bed.

She made herself comfortable before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

"Mommy what happened to Kouga? I didn't see him this morning" Shippo asked getting in the car. "I wanted to talk to you about that I'm sorry, I didn't believe you. You were right he was pretending to like me so he could kidnap and he almost did. But the thing is he fell in love with me and instead of hurting me, he helped me.

He gave me some information on who's coming after me and thanks to him, we'll be safe for while" Kagome said.

"Did he say who it was?" Shippo asked.

"No, but he did tell me to tell you that he didn't mean it, he said you would understand" Kagome said looking at Shippo confused. "I understand Kouga is not such a bad guy once you get to know the real him. except for that whole hired to kill thing but otherwise he's ok" Shippo said smiling. "You're not going to tell me what he meant are you?" Kagome asked.

"Nope I think it's better if you don't know don't worry it's nothing bad" Shippo said.

"Ok if you say so now let's get you to school cause I need to get to my job on time" Kagome said starting the car and backing out of the driveway. She drove and dropped off Shippo at his school then she went to the diner. She was relieved that she made it on time and immediately started to work. At first she was dropping things and messing up orders but after a while she got the hang of things.

Sesshomaru passed the sign that Shippo mentioned that was covered with flowers. He drove for three days straight now he was hungry. He saw a diner and decided to eat there since it was the closet food place to eat. He wasn't sure how much his body could take and he didn't want to find out. He pulled into the parking park and parked.

He locked the doors and went inside.

He sat a table that was empty and picked up the menu to see what he could eat. Kagome being the waitress saw someone new come in and went over to take his order. Since it was on her way to another table who's food was ready. Kagome walked up to the man and asked "May I take your order?" Sesshomaru was still looking at menu when a waitress came up to him and asked to take his order.

'That voice sounds familiar' Sesshomaru thought slowly putting down the menu. "Kagome" Sesshomaru said shocked to find her. "Sesshomaru" Kagome said also shocked as she dropped the tray that was filled with food for the other table. Sesshomaru quickly got up and caught it without spilling anything. "Thanks" Kagome said taking the tray back for him.

Kagome was trying to think of something to say when a man yelled "Where's our food!"

"Ummm Sesshomaru stay right here I'll be right back. I have a break in a few minutes" Kagome said. Sesshomaru nodded and Kagome went off to deliver the food. After about five minutes Kagome came back with a plate of food and a drink and put in front of Sesshomaru. She then took off her apron and sat in front of him.

"I figured you would want that unless you don't like that anymore" Kagome said.

"Thanks" Sesshomaru said starting to eat the fries. Kagome couldn't take the silence and had to ask. "What are you doing here?" Kagome asked.

"You" Sesshomaru said.

"Me?" Kagome asked confused as she started to eat his fries too. "Why didn't you tell me about Naraku?" Sesshomaru asked.

"Oh, so you find out huh?" Kagome asked sinking into her seat. "Yeah, but not until I saw the report on TV about how you went missing. I'm sure you've seen it the one where Naraku is acting as the caring husband forgetting to mention that he had a child and he was missing too" Sesshomaru said rasing one eyebrow. "Don't look at me like that.

Yes, I did see it is that thing still on?" Kagome asked.

"No, I made sure after I saw that it was never aired again" Sesshomaru said.

"Thank you" Kagome said smiling.

"I want answers" Sesshomaru said taking the fries away from her. "Sess" Kagome whined trying to reach for the fries. "Promise me you're going to tell me everything and I mean everything" Sesshomaru said still holding the fries away. "Fine now hand over the fries" Kagome said. Sesshomaru nodded and put back the fries. "Hey wait a minute these are my fries" Sesshomaru said just now realizing it.

"So I brought them to you" Kagome said smiling. Sesshomaru playfully glared at her before smiling. "So when do you get off work?" Sesshomaru asked taking a sip of his drink. "Ummm not for another like two hours, then after that I have to go pick up Shippo from school, but after that I'm free" Kagome said.

"Good, we can talk then" Sesshomaru said.

"Ok, but not around Shippo he doesn't know everything. He knows someone after me. but he doesn't know it's Naraku" Kagome said.

"I figured, I mean you didn't even tell me" Sesshomaru said.

"I'm sorry, it's just I thought you would be safer not knowing" Kagome said sinking more into her set. "Sit up, I'm not mad at you it's just you should have told me. I mean, I did tell you not to marry the guy of course I would help you. Plus I'm stronger then that weakling any day and you know that better then anyone" Sesshomaru said.

"Yeah, I know I was panicking and I wanted to get far away and fast" Kagome said.

"I understand but you really should have come to me" Sesshomaru said.

"Kagome!" a voice yelled. Kagome looked at the clock and quickly got up. "I'm sorry, its seems my break is over" Kagome said before drinking his drink. "Now I remember why I don't like to go out and eat with you. You always end up eating my food" Sesshomaru said.

"I'm sorry, it's just you order such good food plus I was hungry" Kagome said.

'You were hungry and you work in a diner?" Sesshomaru asked with on eyebrow raised. "Shut up, it's not like that here take this" Kagome said handing him a key. "It's the key to my house you can wait for me there" Kagome said as she wrote on a piece of paper. "And here is the address I'm sure you can find it fine" Kagome said smiling before she went back to work.

Sesshomaru finished what was left his food and paid for it.

Kagome came to clean up "I'll meet you at the house" Kagome said cleaning up. "I'm glad, I've found you it's nice seeing you again till later bye Kagome" Sesshomaru said kissing her on the lips. Sesshomaru just smiled and left. Kagome stood still in shock and surprise when she realized she had to get back to work. 'This is the second time I've been kissed today first it was Kouga and now Sesshomaru.

I thought Kouga was a good kisser but Sesshomaru is a way better' Kagome thought smiling.

"You failed!" Naraku yelled so pissed off he broke his desk in half. "Sorry but she disappeared she's smarter then you think. She must have figured me out and what I was going to do and fled" Kouga said with a smirk as he spoke to Naraku through the phone. "Do you at least know where she is going you mangy wolf?" Naraku asked angrily.

'Mangy wolf huh, just for that I'm going to lie to you much more then I planned' Kouga thought.

"Yeah, I over heard her going over her plans but she left earlier then I thought she would. Anyway she's hoping to throw you off instead of going in the direction she's been going. She's going to head back half way then she's going to go west. She's hoping you'll think she went to mom's or cousin's house. Pretty smart plan I say" Kouga said.

"I didn't ask you what you think wolf at least you did something right" Naraku said angrily.

'Keep talking rich boy I'll show you' Kouga thought getting angry.

"Anyway I except you go after her" Naraku said.

"Sorry no can do" Kouga said.

"And why not? I paid you good money and I except you to do you're job" Naraku asked angrily.

"Sorry, but I have new job getting paid twice as much as you offered and it actually acquires me to kill someone" Kouga said smirking knowing he was getting Naraku mad. 'Serves you right rich boy trying to hurt Kagome' Kouga thought.

"You mangy wolf I paid you and you better get the job done" Naraku growled.

"Let's get this straight, I'm no mangy wolf and I'm not hired to chase and kidnap people but to kill. I'm hired to kill, I know it's hard for you to understand since all you have to do is snap you're fingers to get what you want. But that doesn't work with me, so rich boy I'm not going to waste my time chasing some bitch who obviously doesn't want to come back to you.

Don't ever call for my services again" Kouga said hanging.

'Sorry Kagome I really don't think you're a bitch, but I couldn't let Naraku know I fell in love with you. It would get you and me in more danger, but you should be safe for a while now. But if Naraku is as crazy as I think he is. I'm going to need some help keeping him off Kagome's trail when I can't be there to do it. But who can I get?

Oh, no not Ayame but who else can I get? She's the only one I know that will help' Kouga thought.

Kouga sighed and dialed Ayame's number waiting for to answer. "Hey Kouga baby I'm surprised you called you ready to be mine?" Ayame asked cheerfully.

"No and stop calling me that I need your help with something" Kouga said.

"What do you need my help for?" Ayame asked.

"I need help keeping Naraku off Kagome's trail" Kouga said.

"Kouga baby I love you but you're nuts. you want to mess with Naraku. One of the richest men you're crazy trying to go up against a man with all that money" Ayame said.

"I told you to stop calling me that and what's there to be afraid of. Naraku is just a rich boy filled with hot air, he never does things for himself he has others do it for him" Kouga said.

"I don't know" Ayame said not to sure this was a good idea. "Please Ayame do it for me please I promise you won't get hurt. It's not like were going to challenge Naraku head on. Were just going to do little things that will throw him off and send him in the wrong direction please" Kouga said.

"Ok. since it means so much to you but you have to promise to go on four dates with me" Ayame said.

"No way make it two dates" Kouga said.

"No, four dates or you can just forget it" Ayame said.

"Three and you got a deal" Kouga said.

"Fine, so what did you want me to do first Kouga baby?" Ayame asked.

"Stop calling me that just keep an eye Naraku until I get there ok?" Kouga asked.

"Ok, bye Kouga baby I love you, you should call me more often" Ayame said.

"STOP ahh why do I even try just keep an eye on him until I get there" Kouga said hanging up. 'What have I done? I just promised Ayame three dates so she would help me. I must be going crazy' Kouga thought as he grabbed his stuff. He looked around the house seeing if there was anything else he wanted to take with him. Before running off to meet Ayame if he left now and kept a constant speed he could get to her in decent time.
