long lost words whisper slowly to me

fearing you loving you
i won't let you pull me down
HAUNTED. - EVANESCENCE.
Ch.22 The First Move
RECAP.
"Your mom will understand. Don't worry. Trust me." He assured her with a calm voice. "I got to go. I'll see you later." He told her. He leaned forward to kiss her but she pulled away. He sighed as he turned and walked to his car.
'I should tell him tomorrow...i'll just investigate it first but...' She thought. "Inuyasha." She said quietly. He turned to look at her and she ran over to him and jumped in his arms and captured his lips in a kiss before he had the chance to say anything making him stumble back into the car. 'I never gave up the thought of being able to stay with you. I just had to tell them that.' She thought to herself feeling as though she had to make it up to him just for telling Sango and Rin that she did.
"Whoa you ok?" He asked finally bringing himself to pull away.
"Mhm." She assured him kissing him a few more times before he let her go and she backed up. "See you later." She told him as she walked toward the garage. "And don't worry i'll be here when you get back." She called out. "Oh ya and Inuyasha, I love you!" She called out and closed the garage side door as she walked inside it. "Get in the car Inuyasha." She whispered to herself as she listened for the car engine.
She was starting to think he was coming into the garage and started walking for the door to the house so he wouldn't think anything of her staying in the garage but relaxed when he finally started the car and drove off. She sighed in relief and got into her car that she had her mom bring over for 'Inuyasha's use' to take her to school. Inuyasha had questioned it but Kagome just told him her mom left it just in case his car broke down for some reason, she was surprised he actually bought it. She felt bad for having to lie to everyone so much but felt it had to be done. She had explained to Inuyasha's mom that Inuyasha said it was ok if she went to Sango's house since Sango 'wasn't' going to work today.
She opened the garage door and drove to the hotel Kagura was staying at, once she pulled in the driveway she could feel the bad aura and could tell it was Naraku. She drove out of there before Naraku came out and found her knowing Inuyasha would kill her if he found out she went to Naraku. When she got back to his house she went back to his room and started doing her homework. 'That had to be Naraku...but if he sensed me like everyone says he can then...' She didn't even want to think about it and let the thoughts drift away from her mind for the time being.
END.RECAP.
Inuyasha ran into Kagome's room when he heard her yelling. He was sleeping in the next room so he heard her cleary. He was surprised his mom hadn't woken up.
DREAM.
Kagome was to the side as Inuyasha ran toward Naraku. Kagura had a tight hold on her as they watched Inuyasha and Naraku continue the battle.
"This is going no where fast." Kagura said sheepishly as she pulled out a gun. Kagome's eyes widened when she saw it and started to struggle.
"No!" She yelled as she tried to get her to drop the gun as she pushed her back.
"Stupid wench, stop moving or i'll kill you too." Kagura threatened and pushed her down to the floor. Before Kagome had a chance to get up she had heard gun shots being fired.
"NO!" Kagome yelled and looked over at Inuyasha. "Inuyasha!" He had slowly gotten up from the floor and looked over to Naraku while holding his side.
"No exactly a fair fight is it?" Inuyasha asked trying to hold back the pain from his voice.
"You found me, envaded this place and you want a fair fight?" Naraku asked him. "You really are an idiot Inuyasha." Naraku chuckled.
"I'm not going to let you take Kagome." Inuyasha told him as he slowly stood up straight.
"Oh I will get her. Even if I have to kill you, i'll get her. Don't you worry." Naraku nodded with a smirk as he attacked Inuyasha once again.
"This will take forever." Kagura said and aimed her gun at Inuyasha once again. Kagome got up from the floor and pushed Kagura. "You stupid girl! Stay out of this!" Kagura yelled and went to grab the gun since she had dropped it. Kagome reached for the gun and pulled it away from her but dropped it when someone shot her in the arm from behind.
"AH! No! You fucking bitch!" Kagome yelled as Kagura picked up the gun. Kagura smirked at her as Kagome held her arm where she was bleeding and then turned her attention back to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled as Kagura took a few shots at Inuyasha. She looked over at him but then everything turned lit up from a bright light.
END.DREAM.
She realized the bright light appeared cause she woke up, the light was turned on in the room she was in. She looked up and saw Inuyasha looking down at her worriedly and she sat up and wrapped her arms around him.
"Hey, it's ok. It was just a dream. Your ok." Inuyasha said, trying to calm her.
"It was just a dream." She whispered to herself.
"Are you ok?" He asked her softly. He rubbed her back trying to calm her down. "It's ok Kagome, your right it was just a dream." He assured her, he could tell she was scared and tightened his grip around her.
"It was a nightmare." She said as she began crying.
"It's ok." He assured her in a mere whisper. "Your ok now." He didn't know what to do.
"Is everything ok?" Ms. Kappei asked as she came into the room. Inuyasha looked over at her and nodded before turning back to Kagome.
"Shh, it's ok." He said as he tried to calm her crying. He hated it when she cried cause he didn't know how to make her feel better. There wasn't anything he could do when she cried.
"What happend?" Ms. Kappei whispered as she walked over to Inuyasha.
"It's ok. She'll be ok. It was just a nightmare." He explained to his mother. He understood that she was probably worried too.
"I didn't mean to wake you guys up." Kagome apologized now that she was able to control her outburst.
"It's ok, just glad everything is ok now." Ms. Kappei assured her. Kagome pulled back from Inuyasha and had to tell herself over and over again that it was just a dream.
'Dream's arn't real, that's not really going to happen.' She thought in her head.
"You ok?" Inuyasha asked. She nodded with a sigh.
"Sorry." She said once again. Inuyasha nodded.
"Come on Inuyasha, let's let her get some sleep. You guys have school in the morning." Ms. Kappei told him.
"Your going to be ok?" Inuyasha asked again. She nodded as she looked down at the bed. Ms. Kappei started heading for the door then stopped to make sure she was ok. "Ok...get some sleep." He told her and kissed her on the cheek before getting up to walk out of the room. Kagome lied back down on the bed and had to repeat to herself again that it was just a dream.
"It's was just a dream. Nothing like that's going to happen. Inuyasha is ok, he was just in here a minute ago." She said to herself. 'If it was just a dream then why do I have a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach?' She wondered to herself.
"What if that really could happen?" She asked herself as more tears began to fall. 'It's not. It was just a dream. Nothing like that could happen to him.' She thought as she calmed her crying. She couldn't sleep thinking that would happen to Inuyasha even if it was in her dream. 'Inuyasha your such a jerk. Worrying me like this. Agh! Ok...it was just a dream.' She thought. She remembered how much pain Inuyasha had been in when he was shot by Hiten and sat up.
"Dammit...I can't sleep. That could really happen." She told herself and got out of bed before walking out of the room to the kitchen. She grabbed a glass from the cabinet and get some water thinking it would help her. After she finished her water she didn't want to go back to sleep. What if she had that dream again? She stopped in the hallway in front of the room Inuyasha was in. If he's in the room then nothing really could happen to him, so there's nothing for him to worry about. She assured herself. '...dammit...' She sighed as she opened the room door and walked over to Inuyasha. He had already fallen asleep by this time. She smirked and pushed his hair aside away from his face. His ears twitched as he opened his eyes. He sat up and looked over at her.
"What's wrong?" He asked with a yawn.
"Nothing, just can't sleep." She sighed.
"Well thanks for waking me up." He said as he pulled her over to him.
"Excuse me, next time i'll remember not to wake you up." She stuck her tongue out at him.
"It was just a dream." He assured her.
"I know...just freaking me out right now." She shrugged.
"What was it about?" He asked.
"...about when we see Naraku." She told him not wanting to mention the rest.
"Oh...don't worry, it'll be ok. Come on." He said as he pulled her onto the bed and lied down with his arms around her waist. "It'll be ok, Naraku can't do anything." He assured her. She shook her head and closed her eyes.
"Kagura was there too...and then she started shooting at you while you were fighting Naraku." She explained to him keeping back the tears that wanted to fall. The dream seemed so real, she really thought that was happening.
"It's ok Kagome. It was just a dream. I'm not going anywhere." He said before he left a kiss on her forehead. She nodded with a sigh and looked up at him.
"Good." She smiled before kissing him lightly on the lips.
"Go to sleep." He told her. She nodded and closed her eyes, she felt safer knowing he was right there and she also knew he was ok with him being near her. All the thoughts of the dream slowly slipped away as she fell into the darkness of sleep. Inuyasha held her close to him before falling asleep himself.
NEXT.DAY.AT.SCHOOL.
'Last dream I had was that Kagura and Naraku were working together...so when I went to the hotel and felt his presence was that coincidence or are they really working together? Maybe he found her? A dream can't come true. Dreams are nothing but your imagination...right? Cause last night...that can't come true. It was probably coincidence.' Kagome thought as she did her class work with her headphones over her ears.
"I still can't believe last night. Who in their right mind eats a whole dinner and then complains that the food wasn't cooked right?" Miroku asked.
"They just wanted a free meal. Let it go, it's over with." Shippo shrugged.
"Ya...whatever. So have you talked to Kagura?" Miroku asked Inuyasha.
"No, i'll try talking to her later...do you think she can be trusted?" Inuyasha asked. That question had been on his mind all morning.
"Uhh...well..." Shippo started.
"She said she wanted Naraku dea-...uhh...I mean gone." Miroku said and looked around to make sure no students looked over at them. "I don't like her but maybe she really can be helpful." He shrugged. Inuyasha looked over at Shippo to see what he was going to say.
"...maybe she could be..." Shippo shrugged. "I mean...well...she seems ok I guess...uhh...ok honestly...no I don't think she can be, she dosn't really seem to care. I don't know, that's my opinion. I don't think she can." Shippo explained. "I don't know."
"Why do you ask?" Miroku asked curiously.
"I don't know...I keep getting the feeling she's up to something...and I think Kagome knows. I don't know how but...I don't know." Inuyasha said.
"Maybe she does know and just dosn't want to make you worry." Miroku suggested.
"Sounds like Kagome to do that." Shippo nodded.
"Ya...i'm going to talk to her today." Inuyasha decided. Miroku and Shippo nodded as everyone got up to leave to head to their next class.
"Ya it's good if you find out." Miroku said.
"I don't trust her." Shippo shrugged.
"...wait...are we talking about Kagura or Kagome?" Miroku asked.
"Talking about me?" Kagome asked with a smirk.
"...right now i'm not exactly sure." Miroku shrugged. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and grabbed his backpack.
"They are just so intrigued in your life." Sango told her.
"Yup. Sounds that way." Rin nodded as she gathered her stuff and got up.
"I see. Well let's let them continue their conversation." Kagome rolled her eyes as she turned around and started to walk away with Sango. Inuyasha glared at Miroku before he turned around and walked after them.
"Oh hey! I need to talk to you about something later." Kagome told Sango as they walked out of class with Rin.
"About what?" Sango asked curiously.
"I'll tell you later." Kagome assured her as Inuyasha came over and slinked his arm around her waist.
"Keeping secrets?" He smirked.
"Hey if you guys can talk about me then I can keep as many secrets as I want." She shrugged.
"Serve's you right." Sango smirked and Inuyasha glarred at her. Rin giggled and walked off to class.
"I was talking about Kagura...I don't know what those guys were talking about." Inuyasha told them and looked back at Kagome. "I was saying i'm going to talk to her today." He assured her.
"Good to know...what are you going to talk to her about?" Kagome asked as she stopped walking and looked over at him.
"I haven't figured that out yet. I was thinking to just threaten her or something." Inuyasha shrugged.
"That's not a very good strategy." Sango said.
"Well what else do I do? Ask her to sit down for tea and ask her nicely to tell me all about her plans?" Inuyasha muttered.
"Not exactly what I had in mind but whatever makes you happy." Sango smirked as she started walking to class with Miroku and Shippo when they came by. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and looked back at Kagome again.
"I want to be there." Kagome said simply and started walking to class.
"You want to be where?" Inuyasha asked.
"I want to go with you when you talk to her." Kagome told him and he grabbed her arm and turned her around to face him.
"I thought you didn't trust her?" He asked her suspiciously.
"I don't." She shrugged. "I want to go though. Anyway, I think i'd do better at questioning her then you. You have a fast temper." She giggled.
"I'll do fine." He assured her. He didn't tell her about when he went by where Kagura was staying and felt the strong evil aura around there. "Your staying at my house." He ordered her.
"You can't tell me what to do." She told him.
"Kagome...i'm going on my own." He told her.
"Why are you so persistant about going by yourself?" She asked him curiously.
"I don't want him to be able to find you." He told her. 'If you go i'd be delivering you right to him.' He thought. "Please Kagome?" He asked as he began to lean down to her. She put her hand in front of his mouth before he could get close.
"Don't kiss me right now." She told him and turned around and walked to class. She knew he was hiding something.
"Kagome." He called to her as she walked off. Shr shook her head and kept walking. He sighed before walking to his class also which was gym.
"So what about skipping class today and visiting the guys?" Sango asked with a smirk once they had changed and were sitting on the gym floor.
"Ya cause were going to the other gym where the punching bags are and wieghts and stuff are." Rin sighed.
"I don't want to. You guys can." Kagome told them.
"...why not?" Sango asked her.
"I don't want to talk to Inuyasha right now. He's an asshole." She sighed.
"Oh...uhh...well...we don't have to...we'll just stay then." Sango said a little surprised at how she spoke of Inuyasha.
"Alright girls, let's go." The coach said after taking attendence and led them to the other gym. They walked into the gym and spread out.
"I'm going out with Sesshy today." Rin smiled as they headed to the weights.
"I want to see Sesshy!" Kagome giggled. "We should all hang out sometime. I never get to see Sesshomaru anymore." Kagome nodded.
"Hey that sounds fun. We can all go to Inuyasha's house or something. You'll still be inside so it's ok." Sango shrugged.
"Ya we should." Rin agreed.
"So what do you and Sesshomaru have planned?" Kagome smirked.
"I think just the movies and dinner." Rin shrugged.
"Girls...i'm surprised your here today. If your here you need to be doing something." The coach said and walked away making sure all the girl's were doing something.
"Ugh." Kagome sighed and picked up some weights and started lifting them.
"Hey...I heard what the guys were talking about earlier." Rin told the two.
"Really?" Sango asked.
"What were they talking about?" Kagome asked her.
"They were talking about Kagura. Inuyasha was asking if they trusted Kagura and stuff." Rin told them as she picked up weights herself.
"What did they say?" Sango asked curiously.
"Miroku said he didn't really know and Shippo said he dosn't." Rin answered her.
"So why were they talking about me?" Kagome asked as she put her weights up and listened to Rin.
"Inuyasha had said that he thinks Kagura is up to something and he gets the feeling you know somehow. Then Miroku said you were probably just trying not to worry Inuyasha and Shippo agreed with that." Rin told her.
"They need to stay in their own business." Kagome muttered.
"Miss. Higurashi, pick something up. You can't just stand their." The coach told her. Kagome glarred at the coach and picked up a pair of gloves and went over to the large punching bag.
"Hey he's just worried." Sango told her.
"Ya and it's pissing me off. I think I do know what Kagura is up to and I can't go to talk to her cause Inuyasha is being an asshole and wont let me go." Kagome explained as she started punching at the bag.
"What do you think it is?" Sango asked curiously as she spotted Kagome and held the bag.
"I think she's working with Naraku but can I find out for sure? Noooo cause Inuyasha is a stupid idiot. He's telling me what to do as if he's my keeper or some shit like that." She said angrily.
"She's working with Naraku?" Rin asked.
"I think so, but I can't make sure cause that dumbass." Kagome ranted on.
"Umm...Kagome..." Rin started. Kagome jumped when she felt two hands at her waist.
"This dumbass you speak of...I don't happen to know him do I?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome glarred at the two girls for not telling her before she turned to look at him.
"You should." She said simply before walking away from him.
"What are you guys even doing in here anyways?" Sango asked.
"Time to go in. I left my gloves in here." Miroku said as he held his hand out to Kagome.
"Oh those are yours? I thought they were just here to punch this thing." Kagome said with a shrug.
"No...school is cheap, gotta bring your own." Miroku told her as she took the gloves off and handed them to him. "We're outside doing baseball, you can use them if you want." He said and handed them back to her.
"Thanks." Kagome smiled.
"Ok, let's go. Class is over." The coach yelled out to the girls.
"Let's go." Sango said as she turned to go to the changing room. Kagome turned around and didn't even look at Inuyasha.
"Kagome..." Inuyasha started. She just shook her head and kept on walking. Miroku and Shippo followed Sango and Rin out and Inuyasha reached for Kagome's arm to keep her back. She shoved him away and turned to him.
"What do you want?" She asked him.
"Why are you so upset?" He demanded. She glarred at him and turned around to leave. "Kagome!" He said and followed her out.
"Back off right now." She muttered and walked into the girls changing room.
"Dammit." He grumbled before he turned around and walked to the boys changing room. He figured he'd just talk to her during lunch. Inuyasha waited by the girls' dressing room after he had changed, Miroku and Shippo decided to wait with him for a few minutes.
"Hey, i'm hungry. We'll see you in lunch." Miroku said and turned around to leave.
"Don't let your temper get the best of you." Shippo said as he followed Miroku. Inuyasha crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall.
"Whatever." He mumbled to himself.
"Uh oh..." Rin said as she walked out of the girl's changing room and saw Inuyasha there.
"Someone's looking for trouble." Sango said as she walked out next. Kagome walked out and rolled her eyes with a sigh and just walked passed Inuyasha.
"Kagome. Can you at least talk to me?" He asked. Sango and Rin both stopped and looked over at Inuyasha then at Kagome. Kagome crossed her arms and turned around to look at him. Sango and Rin looked at each other before turning around and started walking to the cafeteria. "What did I do to make you so mad?" He asked her.
"You have to stop telling me what I can or can't do! I know what i'm doing." She glarred at him.
"You know something don't you?" He asked her suspiciously.
"What if I do? It's not like it matters anyway cause you wont let me take care of it." She said quickly and turned around. Inuyasha walked over to her and placed his hands at her sides from behind. He brought a hand away and took her backpack off her back and dropped it on the floor.
"Is that why your so mad?" He asked and let his hands go back to her sides. She sighed and placed her hands over his.
"Yes." She said simply.
"Kags, i'm just making sure he can't come near you." He said as he slid his hands around her to tighten his grip from behind her so she was close to him. "Why do you want to go see Kagura?"
"Well why do you not want me to go?" She asked him.
"Uhh...well...I don't trust her." He told her. Kagome shook her head and sighed.
"I know your hiding something from me." She said softly.
"So you get the same feeling from me that I get from you?" He asked making her notice what she was doing.
"You think i'm hiding something from you?" She asked, glad he couldn't see the panic that flashed on her face. He turned her around to face him and looked down at her knowingly. She sighed and looked down. "I'm not sure...but I think I know something." She mumbled looking away from him.
"What do you think you know?" He asked as he slackened his hold on her.
"I admited I was hiding something from you. You have to tell me why you don't want me to go with you." She said and looked up at him.
"Cause I don't want you going..." He told her.
"Inuyasha, you can't tell me or something? Why the hell do I even..." She started but stopped when Inuyasha pulled away from her completely and crossed his arms as he stood in front of her.
"Why the hell do you even what?" He asked.
"Nothing. You know what? When your ready to talk you'll know where to find me." She said as she grabbed her bag and started walking away. Inuyasha grabbed his bag and ran after her down the hall.
"Kagome will you fucking stop? I wont tell you cause i'm protecting you. I don't know why your hiding anything from me, at least i'm hiding whatever i'm hiding from you to keep you safe." He said irritatedly.
"Does this include feeling safe to?" She asked.
"What the hell do you think! Of course it does! I was trying to keep you safe so you wouldn't have to worry!" He told her.
"Well how the fuck does that make me feel safe? Huh! So staying in a house all day while you go visit Kagura should make me feel safe! Knowing that something could happen to you since Kagura is probably working with Naraku!" She yelled and pushed him back against the wall. "You fucking idiot! I don't feel safe cause i'm to worried if something is going to happen to you! Don't you understand you dumbass!"
"Nothing would happen to me! Where did you get the idea that Kagura was working with Naraku!" He demanded.
"Why the fuck do you care?" She asked him and crossed her arms.
"How the hell did you come up with that?" He asked again.
"Like it matters to you but I went by the hotel and I could sense the bad aura. Now you know so stop fucking telling me what to do! I'll do whatever I wan-..." She started but was stopped once again when Inuyasha pushed her against the other wall across from him.
"I thought I told you not to leave the house?" He growled out.
"So I didn't exactly listen to you, what are you going to do about it?" She glarred at him.
"Kagome...your making it very hard to make sure your safe." Inuyasha told her softly.
"Well maybe you should just stop trying to keep me safe if it bothers you so much." Kagome told him.
"I can't do that..." He told her.
"Why not?" She asked.
"You want to know? You really want to know?" He asked angrily.
"Yes...I want to know. Tell me why you have to stay in my business." She said and crossed her arms and looked at him while waiting for his answer.
"It's because of you bitch. If there's any chance your in trouble then i'm way to worried about you to do anything else." He growled out before grabbing his backpack and began walking off down the hall.
'So he was just worried.' She thought as she let her slide down to the floor. She was so upset with him before cause he was telling her what to do and even though a part of her kept saying it was just for her safety she let her temper get to her and got mad at him. Hearing it said out loud after all she had put him through hurt her. She couldn't help the tears that began to fall.
Sango looked up when she saw Inuyasha walk into the cafeteria and gave him a questioning look when Kagome wasn't with him.
"Where's Kagome?" Rin asked him.
"How the hell should I know?" Inuyasha asked as he kept walking and walked toward the door that leads outside.
"What was that about?" Sango asked and a few minutes later Kagome walked into the cafeteria.
"Kagome!" Sango yelled as she ran over to her. "Are you ok?" She asked when she realized she'd been crying.
"Ya, I have to go take care of something. I'll see you guys later." Kagome said and left her backpack at the table before she walked across the cafeteria to exit out the same door Inuyasha left through. She started walking to the corner of the street the school was on. She figured Inuyasha's house wasn't to far from the school to walk to.
Inuyasha was still sitting in his car deciding whether he should leave or not. He didn't want to leave Kagome like that, he just let his temper get to him again. He lifted his head from the steering wheel and sighed as he got out of the car and walked back to the school.
"What are they doing?" Miroku asked when they kept coming into the cafeteria.
"I don't know...maybe they both lost their minds." Shippo said.
"Or they were just trying to find a way to get to Inuyasha's car without us checking on them." Miroku smirked. Sango slapped him on the back of the head before her and Rin got up and walked over to Inuyasha.
"What's going on?" Rin asked him.
"Ya really, you come in then leave then Kagome comes in then leaves then you come back." Sango explained.
"Kagome left!" Inuyasha asked in a panic.
"...uhh...ya...I thought she was going out there to talk to you." Sango told him.
"What happend? What did you guys talk about?" Rin asked.
"And why was she crying?" Sango asked him.
"She was crying too? Dammit. Did she say where she was going?" Inuyasha asked them.
"No...she just said she had to take care of something. What the hell did you say to her?" Sango demanded.
"Not now Sango. I need to find her before she does something stupid." Inuyasha said and turned around and ran out of the school back to his car. He stopped next to the car and pulled out his keys as he fumbled with them trying to get his keys. He shoved his key into the keyhole on the door and unlocked it and got in and started the car. He pulled out of the parking lot and sped to his house hoping to find her there but when he arrived there the garage door was open and her car was gone.
"Shit!" He yelled and got out of the car and went inside hoping her mom came to get the car.
"Inuyasha? What are you doing out of school?" Ms. Kappei asked.
"Is Kagome here?" He asked ignoring her question.
"No, why what happend?" She asked.
"Nothing, I gotta go." Inuyasha said and ran back out of the house and to his car. He saw his mom come out of the house but didn't wait as he sped out of the driveway and started driving to where he figured she might be. He pulled out his cell phone and was about to dial her number but saw he had a voicemail and listened to it.
"I-Inuyasha...hey...I understand if your mad at me...I was being a bitch about all that your right. I'm going to take care of this though. I'm sorry for making you worry like that...bye..." Kagome's voice played over the cell phone.
Kagome sighed as the words that Inuyasha had told him the day he entered back into her life.
' "I promised I would always protect you...this also has something to do with me having to find out...so i'm sorry for not telling you sooner, I broke my promise but I want to protect you." he told her.' She sighed once again. 'Dammit...he's probably pissed.' She thought.
' "It's funny, all these years you were my knight who always came to save me." Kagome said startling Inuyasha, he didn't think she knew he was there since she was facing the other way.
"Ya, well I promised I would be there for you. And i'm not quitting now, no matter what." Inuyasha told her sitting next to her under the tree.' She remembered him saying. She stopped before she turned her car off where she was parked in front of the hotel Kagura was staying at.
Her tears began to fall when another came to her that Inuyasha had told her. ' "I can and I will...he can't have you. Your right you and me do know how he is, so you should know that you can't get away from him by yourself." Inuyasha told her grabbing her hands with his other hand. "I told you that i'm going to protect you and you can't do anything to change my mind." he told her tenderly. "Now if you don't let me help you, then i'll have to do something about it by myself."
"God dammit." She said and tried to wipe away her tears and pulled out of the driveway. "I can't do this without a weapon." She said to herself and sped out of the parking lot and headed to her house. The moment she pulled into the driveway she turned her car off and ran up to her house and let herself in as she ran upstairs to her room. She went into her closet and pulled out her old bow and arrow set along with the sword she had bought at the beginning of the year. She turned around and froze when she saw the one person she didn't expect to see at that moment. 'It's to late now, Inuyasha wouldn't be able to keep his promise even if he wanted to. ' "I promise, I will be here for you forever." He told her holding her arms as he looked at her.' Inuyasha I swear if you try to i'll kill you myself.' She thought in her frozen spot as she starred back at the person standing in front of her.
Inuyasha was speeding toward the hotel but slowed down. 'For some reason...I have a feeling she didn't go over there.' He thought as he stopped and turned around as he sped to his destination. 'Kagome if your getting yourself into trouble then your in for it.' He growled at the thought of her going without him. His growling subsided when he thought that she could seriously be in trouble. Worry instantly replaced his anger. He suddenly had a very bad feeling and rushed to her house. He got out of the car and noticed her car door was open and her car was still on. He stuck his head into her car and grabbed her keys and closed the door before he walked up to the front door. 'Your listening to me before you do anything.' He thought as he knocked on the door. Ms. Higurashi opened the door with a forced smile.
"Oh Inuyasha. What are you doing here?" She asked.
"I'm sorry Ms. Higurashi but I really need to talk to Kagome." Inuyasha told her.
"Well Kagome isn't here right now." Ms. Higurashi said and began to close the door.
"Uhh...but her car is in the driveway..." He said beginning to realize she was acting wierd.
"Sweetheart I went and got the car. She should be in school." Ms. Higurashi assured him.
"Is everything ok?" He asked her.
"Yes i'm fine." Ms. Higurashi nodded.
"Sango saw Kagome leaving school so would you have any idea where she would be?" Inuyasha asked while giving the woman a suspicious look.
"No i'm sorry. She's probably visiting a 'friend'. I think she was planning on 'spending the night' with a friend." Ms. Higurashi told him. "She probably went to the store cause she forgot her sleeping bag in her 'room'." She said making gestures toward the sky. Inuyasha looked up at the ceiling and looked at her oddly.
"Uhh...ok...I have to find her." Inuyasha told her.
"Ok...And Inuyasha, i'm allowing you to see her." Ms. Higurashi told him before closing the door.
"...what the hell..." He wondered at how strange she was acting. "Wait...a friend? Who the hell would she...Shit!" Inuyasha muttered as he ran around the house to the back. He jumped up onto the roof and peaked through the window to see Kagome sitting at her computer. He opened the window and walked in. Kagome spun around in the chair and widened her eyes when she saw him.
"Get out of here now! I hate you! I don't want you in my house!" Kagome yelled at him as she got up and started pushing him back to the window.
"No. I'm not going anywhere." He told her.
"Inuyasha get the fuck out of my house. I don't want to see you anymore. Your fucking to much to handle. I hate you." Kagome said even though it hurt her so much to say. She decided it was best to push him away. She was surprised when Inuyasha grabbed her hands in front of him.
"No..." He said simply.
"I-Inuya-..." Kagome started.
"No Kagome. I'm not letting you go again. I know what your doing." He told her. "I made a promise, and i'm keeping my word. I'm not letting him near you." He whispered and let her hands go as he walked toward her door. "He's here isn't he?"
"What the hell are you talking about! Get the fuck away!" Kagome said not being able to help the tears that began to flow. Inuyasha looked down at the floor and picked up the sword.
"Stop the fucking act Kagome! I'm not going anywhere." He told her and opened her door but ducked when a fist came swinging at him.
"Long time no see. You should have taken the hint and left. What a dense puppy." The person who threw the punch said with a smirk.
"Naraku...you fucking asshole." Inuyasha muttered and heard Kagome crying.
"He'll back off if you just let him go." Kagome told Naraku.
"Fuck that! I'm not going anywhere! Not without you Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled as he looked Naraku straight in the eye.
"Inuyasha just leave! Those dreams I had...they weren't dreams! I think they were premonitions! If you don't leave you'll die! I'll be ok but if you don't leave then i'll never talk to you ever again!" Kagome yelled at him as she pulled him away from Naraku. She stood beside Naraku and looked down at the floor.
"Kagome...i'm not going anywhere. I promised i'd be here for you...and i'm not going anywhere...not without you!" He yelled through gritted teeth.
"And if you die I guess she could always visit your grave." Naraku smiled.
"Don't worry about it. I made a promise that I intend to keep no matter what. There's no way I would break that promise...not again...not because of you again." Inuyasha shook his head then looked at Kagome. "If I ever break my promise to her again it better be because i'm dying. I'm never letting her down ever again." He said while looking straight at her. Kagome looked back at him as her tears continued to fall. She slowly lifted her arm toward Naraku and put her hand to Naraku's arm. Inuyasha looked at her questioningly as did Naraku as they watched her.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha." She muttered quietly before taking a deep breath and shuting her eyes tight before sending out a burst of miko energy at Naraku. He gasped as he stumbled back out of the room and into the hallway wall from the surprise attack. She instantly ran to Inuyasha and let him wrap his arms around her tightly.
"I mean it. I'm not leaving you this time." He said as she cried into his chest. "You hear me?" He asked.
"Inuyasha if you don't then-..." She started but Inuyasha cut her off.
"Kagome, i'm not leaving. Even if that dream of yours were to come true then we can change it. I'm not leaving you." He assured her.
"If anything happens to you then your still breaking your promise." She cried out.
"Nothing's going to happen. I'm not going to die by this asshole. You need to get out of here and wait for Sota. He should be coming home soon." Inuyasha told her.
"I forgot about Sota." She gasped.
"I want you to get out of here and take Sota to Sango's house or something. Kagura knows where I live." Inuyasha told her.
"Inuyasha...I don't want to leave you here with him!" Kagome told him as she pulled away from him a bit to look up at him.
"Just do it!" He told her and pushed her out of the room. "Go Kagome!" He yelled. Naraku slowly awakened and opened his eyes. "Get the fuck out of here!" Inuyasha yelled and pushed her out of the room. Kagome looked at him once more before she turned around and started running down the stairs. She left the house and dragged her mom out of the house and got into her car to go pick up Sota.
"Sending her away? You really think that would help her?" Naraku asked as he got up from the floor. Inuyasha growled and turned around as he started running and jumped out the window stumbling a bit. A few seconds later Naraku followed him out. "Trying to run?"
"No, I would never run." He growled.
"You said you wont leave her like you did before again like you did last time. Do you really think you can make up for lost time?" Naraku asked with a smirk.
"I know I lost trust in her before but I was just stupid. I'd never let that happen again. I know this isn't making up for what I've already done to her and what I put her through but I just want to make sure she's safe and well enough away from you!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Have you no pride? You lost a friendship because of your unfaithfulness and you moved on. Suddenly your near her once again and after trying to hurt her with Kikyo you beg for her friendship once again. You degrade yourself to beg for a friendship that was lost because of your stupidity and betrayel? You are the one who put Kagome through much pain and then you come back to her with the chances of doing it again." Naraku explained.
"I won't let that mistake happen again. I admit I did try to hurt her but I realized that she means way to much to me to lose so easily...Your not going to be the reason this time." He growled and ran toward him. Naraku rolled his eyes and threw a punch at him sending him back. A familiar car drove up into the driveway and the door suddenly flew open. Inuyasha jumped back to his feet and ran toward Naraku once again.
"You so pathetic Inuyasha." Naraku smirked but stumbled forward when a surprise attack hit him from behind. He jumped away to reveal Sesshomaru standing there with blood on his claws.
"Sesshomaru? What are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked.
"I got a call from Kagome. You may need this." Sesshomaru said as he threw him the tetsusaiga.
"What am I supposed to do with this?" Inuyasha asked and flinched as he looked at the sword as it pulsated in his hand. "What the hell..."
"Just use it dumbass!" Sesshomaru yelled. Inuyasha looked over at Naraku and ran after him. Before Naraku had the chance to move Inuyasha brought his sword down slicing through Naraku's arm. Inuyasha looked wide eyed at the now larger sword.
"What the fuck..." Inuyasha muttered to himself as he looked at the sword. He turned to look when he saw Kagura walk over with a smile on her face. Inuyasha glarred at her with a growl. "Bitch, what the fuck do you want?"
"It's more about what you want." Kagura smiled and walked away only to come back with Kagome holding her by the rope that tired her wrists together behind her back.
"Kagome I told you to stay there!" Sesshomaru told her. Kagome sighed and shook her head.
"She was being a good little girl. She did what she was told...well she would have if she had gotten there. I picked her up from that little boy's school." Kagura smiled.
"What did you do with Sota?" Inuyasha asked with a growl.
"Nothing. I don't care about that boy and his mother. They are all taking a visit with your mother." Kagura told him.
"She tied them up!" Kagome yelled before Kagura could stop her. Kagura pushed her back into the goshinboku. She winced when her arms hit the rough bark and she let her self slide to the ground.
"You fucking bitch!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Now now now, your fight is with me. Unless you want to give up? I can just kill you and get it over with if you want." Naraku told him with a smirk.
"Don't be an idiot Inuyasha. Fight him. I'll take care of Kagura." Sesshomaru told him as he walked over to the woman. Kagome looked over at Inuyasha for the first time and looked wide eyed at the large sword in his hands.
"What is that?" Kagome asked.
"Tetsusaiga. It'll be the thing that ends Naraku's life." Sesshomaru said while looking at Kagura.
"In your dreams maybe, Naraku can't be defeated by something like that." Kagura told him.
"So why the change in sides?" Sesshomaru asked calmly.
"Well...you guys were boring. You weren't doing anything. I got bored so I decided it'd be more fun to help Naraku. Anyways, I got the information I needed." Kagura smirked down at Kagome.
"I knew you couldn't be trusted." Kagome said under her breath while glarring at the woman.
"Yes, well to bad your little friends didn't." Kagura shrugged.
"Why are you so interested in Kagome? I mean there are alot of girls that might even be stupid enough to like you. Kagome hates you, why go through the trouble?" Inuyasha decided to ask since neither of them had attacked the other yet.
"Well, I guess I could answer as a last request for you." Naraku sighed with a grin. "I don't want Kagome." He said simply.
"...excuse me?" Inuyasha asked. "Then why the hell are you messing with her!"
"Well you do know my good friend Onigumo right? Actually I think he's a little mental or something. No idea what is wrong with that kid but for some reason he's infatuated with our little Miss. Kagome." Naraku smirked.
"W-What?" Kagome asked, wide eyed with shock. She remembered everything she had talked about with Kikyo the last time they had spoke.
"Then why all those lies after Kagome moved!" Inuyasha demanded.
"Oh that...well Onigumo may have liked Kagome but I just loved seeing you in pain. That was just for me. Inuyasha your a worthless half demon that needs to die already. Enough with this, now you will die Inuyasha!" Naraku yelled as he ran after him. Sesshomaru was already in a sword fight with Kagura. Kagura had picked up the sword Inuyasha had before he got tetsusaiga.

Kagome's computer had been left on and had one unread e-mail with a message to Kagome.
Kagome you were actually right about Onigumo. I went and found out after you had told me that. This dosn't change anything between me and you though, i'm still going to remain your competition in school. Once Inuyasha kills Naraku that is. Oh yes, and i'm laying off Inuyasha too. To tell you the truth I really do hate half demons. Just watch your back in school Higurashi, i'm still better then you in many things.
See ya,
Kikyo.

Sango, Miroku, Rin, and Shippo had been driving around for a while trying to figure out where Inuyasha and Kagome had gotten to. They all had a bad feeling about them. They had just left from leaving Katsuki at home.
"Ok so they weren't at the hotel...let's try Inuyasha's house." Sango suggested.
"Ya, the only thing is she said she had to take care of something. What would she be doing at Inuyasha's house?" Miroku asked her.
"Maybe everything is ok and they just had a big fight." Rin said trying to convince herself the same thing.
"Ya and maybe Inuyasha has decided to fix world hunger." Shippo sighed.
"I'm only trying to think positively here. It wouldn't help if you guys could try the same thing. I don't want anything bad happening to them." Rin said as she crossed her arms and sat back in her seat.
"Sorry Rin...I just have a very bad feeling in the pit of my stomach." Shippo apologized.
"Ya same here...I don't like it. If they end up in the hospital again I swear i'll kill Naraku myself." Sango muttered.
"Do you think that...maybe just in case...that we should get weapons for ourselves. I mean we did promise we would be there for them if Inuyasha showed up. I don't know about you guys but i'm not going to let Inuyasha handle that on his own." Miroku told them. Sango nodded with a sigh before turning the car around.
"Ya your right. See Rin...I told you, you should have bought a sword." Sango smirked trying to lighten the mood.
"Well excuse me. I didn't know there were worse things then those evil squirrels." Rin sighed.
"Uhh...riiight..." Shippo said looking at Rin oddly.
xXxXxXxX
Inuyasha jumped back stumbled back when Naraku made a swing toward him letting the blade of the sword hit the ground.
"What the hell!" Inuyasha asked when five surges of power shot out of the sword. Naraku had dodged the attack just in time before he got hit by one of the streaks of power. Kagome was shocked once again and Sesshomaru was to busy fighting Kagura to explain the attack of the sword. Inuyasha starred at the blade as if he had never seen it before. "What was that?" Inuyasha asked quietly.
...tbc...
/AUTHORS.NOTE.\
Final Thought from Kagome:
Oh wow...what was that? I've never seen that happen to the sword when Inuyasha used to play with it and show off. How did Onigumo fit into this picture! Do the gods have a problem with me or something or do they like to torture me! Inuyasha are you going to be able to do this by yourself! Well i'm helping no matter what you say! Almost got this stupid rope off. It would help if I hadn't gotten my arms scratched.
