Chapter 8
There was darkness all around him. And a dull pain coming form his abdomen. This was all Inuyasha knew as he started to come too.
He slowly opened his eyes to see a dark tunnel, with a patch of blue at the end. 'The well? What am I doing here? and why does my stomach...?' His brain went from slug pace, to light speed. 'Shit! Kagome!'
He instantly came to his feet, and jumped out of the well, trying to ignore the searing pain as he did so, before dropping back down again. He felt the shift in aura, as he traveled 500 years into the future, and landed safely on the ground in Kagome's time. Before he jumped up, to land on the chain latter that Kagome used to climb up the inside of the well.
He threw his shoulder against the solid wood of the lid, and pushed with all his might. His stomach was gushing blood, and thoroughly objecting to this activity. But he kept trying, until finally he got it opened. Through the whole thing it never even entered his mind to use the Tetsusaiga.
Before he left the well house, he noted that Kagome's scent in there was as old as an hour ago. He just hoped he wasn't to late.
He looked up to see Kagome's window closed, and the weird, hard, white drapes covering it. Knowing Kagome wouldn't like it if he broke her window, Inuyasha decided to use the door for once.
He ran into the shrine, through the deserted kitchen, and into the living room, to see Noura Higurashi lying on the ground, moaning with blood all over her forehead. He hesitated for a moment, before going and helping her sit up.
"What happened? Where's Kagome?" Inuyasha asked in a rush. She winced before looking into his eyes, while hers filled with tears.
"He...he took her upstairs, I tried to stop him! But, he...he through me, go stop him Inuyasha! Please go save my baby girl!" She shrieked, before pushing him away. He didn't even try to stop her, he jumped up the stairs with one leap, to find Souta sitting in front of his bedroom door, pale faced, listening to the screams of Kagome. Which was coming from her closed door.
"Hey kid, go help your mom, and don't come back up here. Got it?" He told him. The boy nodded, before he descended the stairs, still as white as sheets.
Inuyasha turned to her door, and opened it half way, to see a sight he hoped he'd never have to see.
Kagome was stark naked on her bed, and that bastard was fucking her, while fully clothed. He was holding her down by her wrists, as she cried, and screamed for mercy, and release. But he just continued with what he was doing.
Inuyasha barged into the room, grabbed the man be the back of his shirt, and threw him across the room. Before he unsheathed Tetsusaiga, and kneeled down by Kagome's bed, and pulled her into his arms. she continued to sob.
"Im so s-sorry... I tried to...to stop him...I only want...you. only you..." She sobbed, as she clung to his haori for dear life. She said other things, but they were all unidentifiable.
"I wouldn't protect her so fiercely. she's not much of a ride." Lue said, smirking at Inuyasha.
Had the Tetsusaiga not been in his hand, or Kagome had not been in his arms, he would have transformed right then and there. But instead he settled for, pushing Kagome away, and telling her to get dressed, before approaching the filth, and pointing the tip of his sword, right in his face.
"Who the hell told you you could touch my mate?" He asked calmly. While his inside boiled.
"I decided I didn't give a fuck about what anyone said I could or couldn't do to that little whore. Just like her mother I'd say..." But he never got to finish the rest of his sentence, for next second, Inuyasha had turned Tetsusaiga, and used the flat edge of the blade to push him through the still closed window.
He listened with satisfaction as the man screamed, and then the crunch as bone meet cement. Before he turned back to the half-naked Kagome. "Stay here, no matter what, until I get back. Okay?"
She nodded, tears still streaming down her face. He wanted to comfort her, but right now he had to kill the bastard who had caused her grief. No one touched his mate and got away with it! (Even though, technically, she wasn't his mate)
He jumped out the window to see the man still flat on his back on the ground. He landed right next to him.
"Lets make this simple. Apologize, leave, never come back. And I wont kill you. I try to avoid killing weak, lowly, humans when I can. And since you're the weakest, and the lowest of the low, you fit the description." Inuyasha said. Having no idea why he was being so lenient. Maybe it was the whole human thing, or the fact he was Kagome's dad, even if he didn't deserve to be.
"Apologize for what?" he croaked, as he got to his feet. "I do what I feel like. If you wanted to stop it, where were you? And by the way, how the hell did you get out of that well?"
"Bastard!" Inuyasha yelled, as he charged forward, and swung at the jeering man in front of him. But it was a blind swing, made out of rage, and Lue was able to dodge it.
"Come on little man. Defend that little bitch's honor. I was really expecting more from you."
Inuyasha had tried to stay patient. This man was, after all, a human. And he was against killing someone who wasn't armed, (As he had seen the berretta on the floor in Kagome's room) But the crime this man had committed, not only against Kagome, but also himself, was just to infuriating. And the man was just to damn cocky. He had to be cut down. And quick.
Inuyasha looked to see what was behind Mr.Higurashi. Nothing but trees. good. Now he'd just have to wait, one more disrespectful, or infuriating thing to come out of the filths mouth, and Inuyasha would kill him. Simple as that.
Lue stood there smirking. As he watched the freak with dog ears standing with his sword drawn. Breathing heavily, as his eyes seemed to be flickering between auburn, and scarlet. He decided he'd goad him just a bit further, see how far this guy could be pushed.
"You do know, that wasn't the first time? I took that whores virginity when she was nine years old."
That did it. Inuyasha raised the Tetsusaiga above his head, and brought it down with a scream of "Kaze no Kizu!"
Lue Higurashi didn't understand the magnitude of his mistake, until he saw those four blades of light streaking towards him. And the look of anger, surprise, and above all else, fear, on his face, Inuyasha would always remember, when he thought of the fact that he wasn't the only one to ever touch Kagome in that way. And it would give him some sense of comfort. Some.
The scar of the wind, left nothing left of Mr.Higurashi but ashes. Which blew away in the wind as Inuyasha re-sheathed his inheritance.
He jumped back up through Kagome's window to see her sitting on her bed, her hands clasped tightly between her thighs, as she rocked slightly back and forth, tears still streaming down her face. She wore a pair of blue pants she called "jeens" and a long sleeved pink shirt.
He instantly crossed the room, and pulled her into his arms.
"I'm so sorry" she mumbled into his shoulder, as he felt the wetness from her tears already socking the cloth of his haori, the salty smell of it clogging his nose.
"For what? I'm the one who got myself hurt so I couldn't stop the bastard!" Inuyasha whispered gently. Mentally scolding himself for one again, being unable to protect her. Only this time, it was much worst.
"You know, I would never let someone else do that to me. I had no choice, I tried to stop him. He was too strong" Her voice was starting to sound stronger, as if his very presence gave her strength.
"What do you mean? "someone else"?" Inuyasha asked hesitantly.
She pulled back to look him in the face. "I mean, someone besides you" Only after she said it did she realize that was a big mistake, they both turned crimson, and looked away from each other.
"I know that wench!" He said. Predictably returning to old habits when things got personal. she giggled slightly.
That's when she heard it. Sirens. And by the sound of it, they were coming this way!
Okay, so, dad's dead! Yeah, but is he her dad? What was the comment about, just like her mother? To find out, come back next time! And who called the cops?
