Love and Law

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Or do I……Wait, no I don't darnit! Just R&R.

Kouga ran all through the city trying to find Ayame, "I hope you're alright Ayame! " Kouga said to himself, "If Sesshomaru has done anything to you I'll kill him!"

Kouga saw smoke coming from a house nearby. Kouga ran to the house and saw Ayame lying unconscious on the floor. The house was on fire and smelled of marijuana. Kouga picked up Ayame and tried to wake her up, but before he could wake her up he looked out the window and heard sirens.

"So, he just ran out like that?" Kagome asked her mother who was sitting at the table with her, Kaede, Miroku, Sango, and Inuyasha. "Aye," Kaede replied, "And he took my coffee."

"Well, if Kouga went out on his own it obviously means trouble." Miroku replied. "Don't say that!" Inuyasha yelled. "Yeah," Kagome replied when the phone started ringing, "I'm sure whatever he's doing he's perfectly alright." "Yes, okay," Sango said on the phone, "Okay, we'll be right over." Sango hung up the phone and said, "He's in jail."

"So, you just walked into a burning house that nobody else was close to, picked up an already unconscious girl, and had nothing to do with the drugs?" A police officer asked Kouga who was tied to a chair. "Yes," Kouga yelled trying to get out of the chair.

The cop pulled out a tazer and shocked Kouga in the shoulder. Recovering from the shock Kouga yelled, "Where is she? Where's Ayame? I need to make sure that she's alright!" The cop tazered Kouga again and said, "You can go see her once you tell me the truth." "I told you!" Kouga yelled, "Sesshomaru Oniheru told me to go there and…" The police officer slapped Kouga in the face and said, "Lowlifes like you have no right to say his name!"

Kouga laughed a little and said, "So now you're his dog?" The police officer called in another cop who dragged Kouga out of the room. "Hey wait," Kouga yelled, "I need to see Ayame though! Let go of me!"

Inuyasha and Kagome walked into the police station. "I can't believe he got arrested. Kagome said. "Doesn't surprise me." Inuyasha replied, "I was just counting down the days until it happened. He…"

Before Inuyasha could finish his sentence he and Kagome noticed the cell Kouga was in. Kouga looked up at them and yelled, "Kagome! Where's Ayame? Is she alright?" "Kouga," Kagome replied, "Sango and Miroku went to the hospital, and Ayame will be fine." "Okay good," Kouga replied with a sigh.

"But," Kagome replied, "We have to get you out of here. I'll go pay for bale and…" Another police officer approached and said, "Kouga Keshikaren, you made bale." "But we just got here." Kagome replied, "Who paid it?" The officer looked at a document in his hand and said, "Um…I…can't seem to find his name." "I did." Sesshomaru said walking into the room.

"Sesshomaru!" Kouga yelled. "Come now," Sesshomaru replied, "Is that any way to talk to the person who kept you out of prison?" "What are you talking about?" Kouga yelled. "This," Sesshomaru replied holding up an envelope of papers. "Because of me they let you off with only probation. Compare that to regular charges of arson, kidnapping, and illegal drug use." "But," Kouga yelled, "That was you though!" "If I did all that," Sesshomaru replied, "Then why are you the one behind bars?"

"Why you…" Kouga yelled. "Now, now." Sesshomaru replied, "Isn't there someone you wanted to see?" "Oh, right!" Kouga yelled getting out of the cell," "But we aren't done here!" "Oh, I'd say we're done here." Sesshomaru replied as Kouga ran out of the room.

Kouga ran into the hospital until he found Sango and Miroku. "Sango," he yelled, "Where's Ayame?" "She was doing fine, but…" Sango said, "The doctors don't know what's happening." "What?" Kouga yelled.

Kouga ran into the room and saw Ayame unconscious on the bed. "Ayame!" Kouga yelled, "Please say something! I need you to be alive! Ayame." Ayame opened her eyes and asked, "Did you really mean that?" Sango and Miroku started laughing and Ayame said, "Did you really believe that I was in critical condition?" "Yes," Kouga said hugging Ayame, "And I'm glad that now I have the chance to hold you in my arms."

Kouga, Miroku, Sango, Inuyasha and Kagome were sitting at the table in Kagome's house. "Why are you still here?" Inuyasha yelled. "I told Ayame the truth." Kouga replied, "So, now I have to crash here for a while." "Fine." Inuyasha replied angrily.

The doorbell rang. Kouga answered it and saw Ayame standing there. "Oh, hey Ayame." "Hi," Ayame replied, "I'm sorry." "What for?" Kouga asked. "It's because of me that you got arrested, so I…" Kouga grabbed her hand and said, "Don't be sorry. That stuff I said in the hospital…I meant every word of it. Don't feel sorry for my dishonesty." "Kouga…" Ayame replied. "Kouga!" Kagome's mother yelled, "Dinner's ready!" "Oh," Kouga said, "Hey Ayame, do you want to stay for dinner?" "I'd love to." Ayame said as Kouga helped her inside.

A/N: A little more emotion in there than the rest, but Kouga needs some romance too. Anyway, thanx for reading.
