He watched as the man hit the young woman he loved. It made his blood boil. But if helped her, that rueful man needed to be gone. He wanted to cry for her and hold her. Why she hadn't run away and to him, he'd never understand. As long he loved her though, he'd watch over and protect her.

"You whore!" The mad man pushed her to the ground. Her beautiful kimono ripped and she scrapped her arm.

"Please," She pleaded. "Don't…."

"I'll do whatever I please!" He roared. "How dare you defy my authority." He picked her up and slapped her.

The younger man flinched and growled as she screamed. It didn't matter how many times she pleaded him not to interfere, this was the last straw!

He drew his sword and ran out, standing defensively in front of his love.

"Who do you think you are?" He asked as he pointed his sword at the attacker.

"I am the lord of this land!" The attacker raged. "And you…hanyou?"

His bold hands tightened on his faithful sword. "Inuyasha." He growled lowly.

The man knew of Inuyasha but didn't show it. He only looked down at the girl. "So is this your new lover? Whore. I knew it."

The girl got up and put her hand on Inuyasha's shoulder. "Don't bother Inuyasha, lets go."

"No, Kagome, he shouldn't have slapped you." Inuyasha's eyes hardened. "Leave, I'll get you when I'm through."

Kagome gave the lord one last sad look before leaving.

"Don't you go anywhere!" The lord ordered.

"She can go anywhere she pleases. At this point, you no longer exist."

Kagome let a tear fall as she heard an explosion. Now she was finally free. She wasn't going to be forced to stay or to do anything. As she saw her hero emerge from the dust bowl, she realized how much she loved him. She was never going to leave him.

Yeah, I dont know where this one came up. But I know I needed a hero that day and this was a cute hero story. My hero? Nope, he never showed up. And he probably wont for a LONG time. Sigh But, my dad has always been a great hero and his "ice cream moments" are great! LOL I wanna start a new story that's non-Inu. Uhg. I need a new Inu story too. And then there's depression...and schoolwork. Why do those two sound so familair and alike? LOL

C.A.M.E.O.1 and Only: Ha! I dont have a DS. My bro does though...LOL

Vandy-kins: Big vocab eh? I always thought it was the dictonary I carried around. LOL But thanks for the complement. It gave me a big smile. That's one I usually dont get.

Anime master Inu: Confused? Not as much as I am.

rosesbleedto: Yeah, that's right. About the rebellion. I'd say to rebel not being able to answer to reveiwers but there's not much in our hands. And what could we do but sign a damn patition. Do you have anything that drives you insane?
