[ Recap Chap 17 ]

[ Outside ]

"I said let go!."

The guy proceeded in dragging me across the pavement and towards a car.

I started to get sober and I started kicked at his legs and punching him with my other arm.

"!!" He punched my cheek.

I grabbed my throbbing cheek and looked down.

"I believe the lady said to let go." I heard a familiar voice say.

I looked up in time to see a fist meet the guy's face.

I turned around to face my "hero."

"I-Inuyasha?!"

[ Chapter 18 ]

... and then i got a little woozy and blacked out. -.-;; all i remember is Inuyasha beating that guy up.

Author's POV

"Stoopid hentai ... picking up drunk little girls ...." Inuyasha muttered as he gave the guy one last kick. "Kagome?" He turned around and saw her snoozing on the ground.

"Feh." He walked up to her and squatted next to her. "Oi. Kagome. Wake up." Inuyasha said as he tapped her cheek and poked her side.

He looked around. "What am I gonna do with her?"

Inuyasha shifted Kagome's hair to the side and looked at her face.

'She looks so ...'

"WTH is that?!" He grabbed her chin and looked at the tatoo. "Maroon?! Sesshoumaru that friggen-." Inuyasha stood up and fumed.

"Ugh." Kagome groaned and turned on her side.

"Eh... oops." -o-;; "What to do ..." Inuyasha murmured and hefted Kagome up on his shoulder. He took out his cell phone and called Miroku.

"Moshi moshi?"

"Oi! Get out here."

"What?! And miss out on all the fun?"

"-.- Get out here.. NOW!!" Inuyasha shouted and hung up. "Stoopid hentai."

"WTH do you think you're doing?!"

[Jin's POV : In Exit]

'Ugh. Stoopid Nari girl. Dragging me away from my wife. . Keke. I love that girl. Wait ... where is she?' I loooked at the table were I left her and only found me jacket. I grabbed it and looked around ...

[AN: Jin doesn't like Kagome. He used to but when he found out that Sess liked her he backed out. Bur he still jokes around w/ her.]

and spotted a very tipsy Kazuya. -.-;;

"Did you see Kag?" I gravved Kazuya and asked him.

"Kagome-chan? I saw her go outside with you man." Kazuya murmured.

"What?" I left Kazuya by himself and headed outside.

[ Outside ]

'Where is she?' I looked around the parking lot and then I saw a guy with long black hair 'Inuyasha.' holding something on his shoulder.'Kagome."

"WTH do you think you're doing?!"

"Who the hell are you?!" Inuyasha snorted and grabbed Kagome closer.

"What are you doing w/ Kagome? Give her to me." I demanded. "WTH did you do to her?!"

"I'm not giving her over and I didn't do anything you baka." He secured her on his shoulder and stepped closer to me.

'Wth did he do to her? That good for nothing piece of trash.'

"Give her over before I-." I started.

"Before you what? Sick Sesshoumaru on me?" Inuyasha taunted and spit on the ground near my foot.

"I don't need him to beat you up." I tossed my jacket to the side and Inuyasha placed Kagome on the ground.

"In your dreams." Inuyasha growled and swung at me. I backed away and bent down to trip him but he jumped and kicked my face.

"Crap." I muttered and wiped blood off my mouth and kicked him in the shin.

"$%&!!: Inuyasha started pnching me like crazy and I blocked most of them and started to punch him on my own but that cheapshot kicked my stomach and knocked me to the ground and left me breathless.

"Feh. And I though you would be a challenge." Inuyasha started kicking my stomach.

[ Kagome's POV ]

'Ughhhh... my head.' I sat up and was met by dizziness. I felt the ground move before me and colors swirl in my head.

'Crap.' I closed my eyes and grabbed my head. I heard groaning noises and then a sickening crack. I peered out and I almost screamed. Inuyasha was wrecklessly kicked Jin over and over agin in the stomach and Jin was groaning in pain.

"INUYASHA!!" I screamed.

"Huh?" Inuyasha turned around. "Kagome?!"

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I hobbled over to Jin and blocked him.

"This guy was going to take you away!" Inuyasha said.

"He's my friend!!" I screamed and attempted to punch Inuyasha.

"How the heck was I supposed to know?!" Inuyasha said. "What if he hated you and wanted to rape you like the other guy?!"

"Jin would never do that!! And his markings are showing; you knew he was in Sesshoumaru's gang. We don't do stuff like that if you want to live, you should know that!"

I looked at Jin and wanted to cry. He was so beat up. Inuyasha was stronger than I thought.

Jin's shades were broken, hair ruffled, blood trailed down his face and through his shirt. No doubt a few broken ribs.

Inuyasha was in bad shape himself ... but nowhere near Jin's state. The memory of Souta popped up in my head.

"I'm ... I'm . I didn't know." Inuyasha forced.

'It took a lot of strength for him to say that and he couldn't even get out an I'm sorry'

I glared. "Leave. Leave before I call out the others."

"Kagome -." Inuyasha started.

"Leave!!" I punched the ground.

Inuyasha frowned and turned and left. I stared after his figure until it was ingulfed in the darkness.

"Ugh." Jin groaned.

"Jin!" I turned to see him trying to sit up. "What are you doing?! Just lie down and I'll go get help okay?"

"Alright babe." Jin grunted out.

"Don't talk. Don't move. Try not to breathe so hard." I picked up his jacket and put it over him.

"You wear it." He said.

"Don't talk."

"Wear it."

"Shh!!"

Jin glared at me.

"Fine. I'll wear it." I said and took off to Exit.

[ Exit ]

I got into Exit and looked around for just about anyone I knew.

'Where is everyone?' I waded through the crowds of dancing people.

"Excuse me." I squished my way inbetween people and headed to our table.

"Hey." A guy with blonde hair grabbed my arm.

"Let go." I tried to shrug free.

"Come on." he said. "Let's dance."

"No thanks." I grabbed his arm and latched it off my arm.

"Hey girl. If you-." he huffed.

"Look." I glared. "I don't have time for this. I need to go get help and I don't think you can afford to mess with me right now." I traced my tattoos and then turned away.

'Ugh. Freak.'

I walked over to our table and didn't see anyone.

"Where is everyone?!" I kicked a chair.

"Well isn't someone fustrated."

I turned around and saw a kinda angry looking Sesshoumaru.

"Sesshoumaru." I said and grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the exit.

"Leaving already?" he said. "We still have to finish dancing."

"OMg." I said frantically. "Jin's hurt. We need to get him to a hospital. I don't have my license yet and you have a car so let's go."

"Well..." Sesshoumaru said. "He probably deserved it."

"Omg. I don't have time to deal with this. Let's go." I fumed. "He's really hurt."

"Who cares." Sesshoumaru shrugged.

I turned around and felt myself go teary from I don't know; sadness, frustration, annoyance.

"Sesshoumaru." I grabbed his arm. "I really don't need this right now."

"He needs to learn a lesson." Sesshoumaru glared. "I'm not leaving because he got himself into trouble."

"Sesshoumaru. Please." I said. "I think he's gonna die if you don't bring him. Please drive him. I'm practically begging you and I don't usually do that. I'lll owe you one okay?" He turned away.

'That good for nothing-'

I grabbed his arm. "I'm serious Sesshoumaru. I'll hate you forever if you don't take him. I'll do anything you want okay? Just take him."

Sesshoumaru sighed.

"Okay. Let's go."

I smiled. "We have to hurry."

[ Outside ]

"Where is he?"

"Over there." I ran to Jin's form on the ground.

"%&..." Sesshoumaru said softly. "Who did this?"

"I'll tell you what happened on the way. Give me your keys and you take him to your car."

Sesshoumaru handed me his keys and I ran over to the car and opened the back door as Sesshoumaru laid Jin down in the car. I slamed the door and got in the passenger seat and handed Sesshoumaru the keys and we were off.

"Jin, are you okay?" I asked.

"He's unconcious." Seshoumaru said. "Tell me what happened. Who was it?"

"Inuyasha." I answered softly.

I saw Sesshoumaru's grip tighten on the steering wheel.
