Torn Between Three Worlds
Chapter 1
Where It All Begins
"Inuyasha," Kagome said sweetly.
"What!" he shouted back at her.
"OSWARI!" (Thud…. "Offfmmm"….)
"What did you do that for?" he whined.
"Just because," she said stomping off.
Damn bitch has been sitting me a lot lately.
When Inuyasha recovered from being sat, he leaned up against a near by tree. Why Kagome's sudden change in temper really pissed him off. She would be really sweet one minute and sitting him the next, even when he said or did nothing to upset her. He began to wonder how Kikyo was doing… my heart is torn between Kikyo and Kagome… I mean I still care for Kikyo… I also care for Kagome, even though they can both be a royal pain in the ass. What am I going to do? There is no way that I can choose between the two of them. They are the only ones who have ever accepted me the way that I am. Inuyasha yawned and began to drift asleep. Dreaming, he saw himself standing under the Sacred Tree, Kagome and Kikyo aiming arrows straight at his heart. He had to choose. He had to choose between them or he was dead. Kikyo or Kagome, either way the other would kill him. What was he to do? ………………. The mikos let their arrows fly.
Inuyasha woke with a start feeling a sharp pain in his chest like an arrow had gone through his heart. (no pun intended)
"Am I dead?" Inuyasha asked.
"I don't know, you tell me."
Inuyasha looked up, "Oh, its you Miroku," he said flatly.
"Nice to see you too. I saw you tossing and turning and decided to investigate. So….what's wro…?"
"It's nothing." Inuyasha interrupted. "Just a bad dream."
"I thought demons don't dream."
"I'm half-human baka."
"What was it about?" Miroku asked, hoping to get something out of the hanyou. Instead he just got a threatening growl from the annoyed inu-youkai.
"Sorry, I was actually sent here to tell you that dinner is ready," he said solemnly.
Inuyasha just realizing it was now dark, "How long was I asleep?"
"You were asleep for about 5 hours." Kagome's voice was heard over the rustling leaves of the trees blowing in the wind.
"What! Five hours!" he shouted.
"Duh, can't you see it's dark out now! Baka."
"Couldn't you have woken me earlier!"
"You were sleeping so peacefully that I didn't want to disturb you," she said sarcastically.
"Will the two of you knock it off?" Miroku said with an exasperated sigh. "It looks like it is about to storm so we better head inside," he had to shout over their incessant bickering.
Lazily, Inuyasha got up and followed Miroku and Kagome to Kiade's hut.
"I've been worrying 'bout Inuyasha as of late. He's been really depressed and kinda a lot more moody that usual," Miroku whispered over to Kagome.
"Do you think it's getting close to his 'time of the month'?" Kagome asked.
"I don't know." Miroku answered back in a hushed voice.
"You know, I can hear you guys up there. I'm not deaf," Inuyasha shouted at them.
"OOOPPPS," they said in unison.
Later on inside Kiade's, the same old stuff was going on. Inuyasha and Kagome were arguing with Shippo chipping in every now and then, Miroku was groping Sango's ass and she slapped him on the face for it, and Kirara and Kiade were sitting in the corner with their heads hung in shame.
"Yes, baka. I have to go back for my finals! I can't miss them."
"You can miss this test just once. We have to collect the jewel shards before Naraku does. We've wasted enough time already with you mopping around."
"WHAT! ME MOPPING AROUND! Look at you mister. You are the one who wants to lie around all day in your stupid tree to think. Or at least try to."
"Excuse me wench, but I'm not the one who has a bug up the ass one minute and cuddling up to me the next, then complain that you are getting tired when we only walk a couple of miles, after that you start complaining your stomach hurts then you sit me for telling you to suck it up!" he countered.
"It's called I'm on my period Inuyasha! Now SIT BOY! I'm leaving. I'll be back in three days."
And with that Kagome ran out of Kiade's hut and towards the well.
As soon as the spell wore off, he sat up fuming.
"Inuyasha aren't you going to go after her like you always do?"
"Shut it Shippo. I'm tired of chasing after that bitch."
"WHAT! You aren't going to go after her!"
"No damnit, so leave me alone."
"He's right Inuyasha. The two of you have had worse arguments in the past and you have gone after her every time. What makes this time so different?"
"Will all of you shut the hell up! I've already told you I'm tired of chasing after her!"
"But, Inuyasha, why?" Sango asked innocently.
