A young man strolled though the forest. His staff jingled merrily as he walked and lightly hummed a wordless tune. The rain pelted his smiling face and soaked threw his clothing, any reasonable person would not be walking at the dead of night during the rainy season.

However this was no ordinary man.

He stopped briefly to retie his rat-tail hair that had come looses during his jolly walk. He looked upward towards the dark clouds and smiled in mock and ridicule as Nature tried to damper his mood quite literally.

After all happiness depend on the attitude of the person right? As long as he kept smiling Mother Nature could not ruin his mood.

The sky lit up with lightning and followed by a thunderous boom that echoed through the valley

On the other hand a nice dry house did seem appealing right then. He patted his hidden spell bindings in reassurance. The village couldn't be that far away now, soon he would be safe and dry inside a warm home with a full stomach.

He looked up once again this time searching for the heaven and sent out a little pray, hopefully the village would be full of young beautiful ladies whose husbands had died and were in need of some…comfort

The sky let out a mighty roar as a answer and the young man looked back down and resisting the urge to sprint to the nearest tree and hide

He began to wonder if god truly was a women as the rain pelted him harder and a tree branch fell somewhat near him, he hurried along the road

A slap brought Inuyasha back to life

"It's not good to sleep after a concussion" came a soft voice next to him

His eyes became slits as they adjusted to the firelight. Rubbing his sore cheek he pushed himself into a sitting position and let his human senses adjust.

They were at the rim of small cave about six feet in height and stretched further towards the back.

His arm was wrapped carefully and he could detect the scent of light herbs in the wrapping. He flexed his fingers and winced when he realized his wrist was broken

Inuyasha glanced back at Kagome and noticed that she was resting her chin on her knee and hiding half her face with her tangled hair. Great what's wrong with the bitch now? He craned his neck to see her face and discovered that she was not crying but gnawing on her skin in worry.

After a moment he spoke

"your hair looks like shit" trying to get a raise out of her

"I know" she answered in a monotone. She didn't look up at him but continued to bite her skin leaving indents

He raised an eyebrow at her that was not the response he was expecting

'Why is she acting so weird?' Time to be direct

"What the fuck is wrong now? Your acting like a self-absorbed bitch." shock flew across Kagome's face as he got closer to her face. She paused in her biting as he nearly spat the words into her face. "It's because I'm human right? Your going to act all high and mighty because you demon and I'm not, that's it isn't it? Well you know what you can kiss my --"

"I'm sorry!" Inuyasha stumbled in shock but Kagome quickly grabbed his front shirt to prevent any further damage and dragged him up to her face.

"…wait what"

Her words spilled out in a jumble.

"I didn't mean to break you! I mean your arm! I mean I didn't mean to drop! You touched my neck and I freaked because it felt weird not bad weird but I forgot and it was raining so I let go but not on purpose I'm just not use to people touching my neck well I am but not like that most times it hurts so I didn't try to I'm SORRY!

Kagome bent over to catch her breath as Inuyasha try to piece her run-on together.

Inuyasha shrugged himself out of her grip.

"Oh ok"

Kagome looked up in alarm

"…ok..?"

"yeah just forget about it," Inuyasha stood up to stretch when he got an evil glint in his eye

"actually there one thing I think you should do." his smile glistened as he sat down next to her and pocked her neck making her let out a hiss of air

"Tell me what's the big deal with your neck?"

Kagome growled in protest "how is that any of your buissence"

"Its not" he glanced at her sideways non-chalant "but seeing how you did drop me out of a fifty foot tree on to my ass. I should get some revenge here and what better way then making you squirm?" a low chuckle escaped his throat as he touched another mark on her neck and the puss explode on impacted.

Kagome growled and scooted away from him, she raised her hand to her neck and lightly grazed the bumps with her fingertips.

"Fine" she mumbled still rubbing her neck. 'But how can I explain?' she wondered absently letting her nails drag across her arm sprouting little blood drops crawl down her hands.

"Your bleeding" Inuyasha stated offhand

"what…..blood? Oh BLOOD!' She looked up and nearly shoved he bloody hand in his face

"It's my blood's fault!"

Inuyasha stared at her a little skeptical.

"Your …bloods …fault?" he repeated 'this girls crazy'

"Yep!" she smiled obviously proud of herself.

She picked up a twig nearby and let a single droplet fall onto it. As the blood made contact with the stick it let out a hiss burning a hole from one tip to the other.

Inuyasha stared in disbelief

"What the fuck!" he exclaimed in horror

Kagome wiped the dust from her fingers and dropped what little remains of the stick and looked towards him no longer proud.

"My blood" she repeated "is a curse in itself. Like I said my origin is a cross between a miko and demon. Two powerful bloodline that are always in a battle to claim dominance. This freakish mixture make my blood unstable and toxic. Any contact with my life source is like drinking straight poison. Even a droplet can melt away someone's skin. The only reason it has no affect on me is because I was born with it and I've lived with venom in my veins so long it has no affects on me."

She paused to rub the swells again but then let her fingers rest on the jewel.

"At first this was to my advantage. I was stupid as a child never being quite enough always yelping in pain and being heard by more powerful demons. I was always being chased and all I could do was run." she broke from her sentence and looked to Inuyasha.

"You heard me speak… you know what happens" Inuyasha nodded embarrassed

"What's weird is that most demons go for my neck when they hear me, some male driven instinct I guess but you didn't, instead you kissed me." Kagome cocked her head in curiosity and spoke absentmindedly.

"In fact no ones ever done that before usually they just pin me down and bite into my jugular. That was my first kiss" She didn't notice Inuyasha's face grow redder. She shrugged her shoulders

"Must be a hanyou thing." she decided and continued. "So anyway since mate marks last longer then normal wounds they never seem to fade. I tried to cover them up because most villagers see the marks and go crazy. Bad enough being a hanyou try it when everyone thinks your some kind of slut." She laughed but her laughter held no joy in it, it seemed rather empty.

"I guess it doesn't matter anymore, now that I have this" she raised the jewel to her face and frowned "even if I don't even know why it works"

She smiled at Inuyasha "Guess I have some luck after all!"

Inuyasha nodded in deep thought.

Kagome laid down near the fire and hesitate to speak for a moment before she blurted out.

"So what about you?"

Inuyasha looked up from thinking and narrowed his eyes

"That's not your problem"

"So what you heard my story I want to hear yours"

He shook his head and pointed out "you still haven't explained what's wrong with your voice"

Kagome's eyes grew into slits and answered in a low voice "Shut up"

Inuyasha shrugged "then I don't have to tell you mine"

Her lips turned into a sadistic smile and the words slipped through her lips like venom "A fucking bastered used Kanna to curse me. When I find him I'll break ever bone in his body"

Inuyasha stared at her then turned his gaze towards the flames. The fire gave a crackle before he spoke.

"I murdered everyone in my village"

Kagome's eyes widened. She tried to see his eyes thou they were hidden by his curtain of black hair. His fist clenched and unclenched.

"A man betrayed my family and stole a precious heirloom of mine. It stops my demonic side from taking over. I don't remember a lot, just that everything went red and all I could think about was spilling blood. When I arrived at the gate I assume the barrier knocked me out because when I awoke I couldn't remember how I had gotten there. I don't know if my father tried to fight me or if my mother died at my hand. I..I remember nothing. When I lose control I become an animal I become a-"

"beast." Kagome whispered.

Inuyasha nodded "Exactly."

Kagome's thought spiraled uncontrollably. 'Is he the one? Is he the beast?'

"Tell me his name"

Inuyasha looked up to see Kagome standing before him with her bangs shadowing her eyes.

"The one that stole your heirloom. What's his name?" she demanded

Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and sneered back "The one who cursed you what's his name"

"You don't get it. This is important what was his name!"

"Tell me first!"

"NO! TELL ME FIRST!"

"NO! TELL ME FIRST!"

"NARAKU!"

"ONIGUMO!"

They both stared at each other in shock

'Naraku I've never heard that name before' thought Inuyasha

'Onigumo…then Inuyasha's not the beast!' thought Kagome. She signed and to his surprise smiled at him.

"Your not part of the prophecy" relief shinned in her eyes and she sat down across from him.

"Prophecy?" Inuyasha's blood had cooled and all the anger inside of him disappeared.

"Nothing" she laughed "just forget I said anything"

She laid back and curled up. "Good-night Inuyasha, your arm should heal by morning we'll leave then"

He stared at her for a moment and watched the rises and falls of her body before laying down himself with his right arm behind his head and the broken wrist carefully resting on his stomach.

"yea good-night"
