Chapter 41:
Koga was heading out into the kitchen. Sam had taught him and everyone else how to make cereal while they were here, and he felt like having something to eat, since he didn't know how to make anything else, and he was sure that Sam wouldn't appreciate it if he went hunting and came back and lit a fire to cook meat from some dead animal. He went to a cabinet that was above the stove and took out a box of Pops cerial. He poured it into a bowl before he smelled it. Jacob was coming up behind him.
Koga put the box down and turned around to see Jacob standing behind him. "What do you want?" Koga asked, his voice dripping with hatred.
"Look, I know you don't trust me, and I know that you probably hate me for doing this to you and your friends. But I'm telling you now that I have lifted the curse, so tomorrow when Sam's spell wears off, you will not become girls again. You'll still be your normal selves." Jacob started. "But I have something else to tell you, and I think you'll thank me in the long run."
"Why should I listen to you. You're the one doing all this." Koga told Jacob.
"I understand that. ut your relationship with Samantha, I should warn you. It's not going to work. I am telling you nothingshort of the truth." Jacob said, ignoring Koga glaring, which was soon turning into a growl. "All I'm saying is I've been in your position before, and it won't last long. Sam is one of those girls who has a boy friend one week, and another the next week. She doesn't stay in long term relationships at all. She did it to me."
"What are you gettin at?" Koga growled.
"She will break your heart. She only does this for attention, not for love. I used to go out with her. We were couple. And then she just dropped me for no reason." Jacob explained. "So i would do you good to save yourself the heart ache and just leave before she leaves you."
Koga glared at Jacob before pushing past him. "It would do you good to listen to me. I'm doing you favor!" Jacob called as Koga rushed up the steps.
Koga didn't want to believe Jacob. He couldn't. That snake was just pulling his strings. That's all. But then as Koga was going up the steps, Koga heard something. It was Sam. She was giggling. Then she spoke.
"Oh my god. Koga didn't even go that far with me." Koga heard her say. Then he heard Eric let out a chuckle andsay something. He couldn't hear what Eric was saying though.
Koga didn't look. He didn't want to see. He went back down the steps an stomped towards the back door. Inuyasha and Kagome looked up at him. "Where are you going Koga?" Kagome asked.
"Out." Koga said.
"Don't go too far. We have school tomorrow." Kagome said.
"Screw school! Koga yelled.
With Sam and Eric...
Sam was looking through a peek hole in the wall so she could see into her bedroom, watching Sarah and Hiten sucking face. "Oh my god. Eric. We have to walk in on them." Sam said with a smile.
"Be my guest." Eric said.
Then Sam opened the door, surprising Sarah and Hiten, who scrambledaway from each other, trying to look like nothing was going on.
"You guys are so busted." Sam said.
"You, you saw everything?" Sarah asked.
"Yep." Sam said with a smile. "We were looking through a peep whole I put in the wall." Sam said as she waved her hand, making the hole in the wall disapeer.
Hiten and Sarah both looked sheepish. "Sorry." Hiten said.
"No no. You guys are a couple now! That's great! Now you are absolutely taking her to the prom. PERIOD!" Sam yelled.
"Umm... OK?" Hiten said.
"Are you serious?" Sarah shrieked happily before she hugged Hiten tightly. "Thank you Hiten! This will be the best prom ever!"
"Yeah yeah. Whatever." Hiten said befoe he kissed Sarah with a peck kiss.
"This is so great. I have to tell Koga." Sam said as she rushed downstairs. Then she looked around the whole downstairs, but didn't see Koga anywhere. She went into thefamily room, getting concerned about where Koga had gone. But when he got there, she only saw Kagome and Inuyasha and a sleeping Shippo in Kagome's arms. "Do you guys know where Koga went?" Sam asked.
"He said he went out." Kagome replied. "Why? Is everything OK?"
"Yeah." Sam said. "I'll go out and get him." Sam said, now really concerned.
"Just let him go Samantha. He's a big boy." Jacob told Sam. He was leaning against the wall in the doorway. Sam glared at him.
"What did you tell him?" Sam growled at Jacob, glaring daggers at him.
"I only offered him some advice." Jacob said.
"Jacob! What did you tell him?" Sam said as she stomped over to Jacob. "I swear to god if you did anything to him, you will pay for it dearly."
"I did absolutely nothing to him." Jacob said. "Promise." Jacob said, making a boyscoutsign with his fingers.
"Save it Jake." Sam said.
"Fine. I will Samantha." He said a smile on his face. "Besides, it is much too late, and you should get to be." Jake said.
"I'm not going anywhere except out that door to find Koga..." Her words drifted off as she started to swerve. Her vision was getting blury. Then she went unconscious, falling into Jacobs arms.
"That's a good girl." Jacob said.
Inuyasha jumped up. "Hey! What the hell did you do to her?" Inuyasha yelled as he went at Jacob.
But Jacob waved his hand in the air causing him and Kagome to be caught in seperate cages. Inuyasha tried to get out. "Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!" He yelled at he attacked the bars, but nothing worked.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried. She was in her won cage, holding the bars tightly as she called to Inuyasha.
"What's going on?" Andy yelled as he and Billy stomped into the family room, seeing Inuyasha and Kagome in cages, and Sam in Jacob's arms.
"Jake? What are you-"
"Shut-up." Jacob said as he waved his hand and Billy and Andy were frozen in place. "Now for the rest of you, it's bed time." Jacob said with a wve of his hand, and everything went black, for everyone.
Later on...
Sam woke up in a cold place. Sh slowly opened her eyes. Her head hurt a lot and it was throbbing. "Where am I?" Sam groaned as she sat up to find herself in a cell. She looke down at herself. She was wearing an ice skating dress, leggings and skates with plastic guards on them. "What's going on?" She asked herself. She looked around. Eric and Sarah were in the cell across the hall from Sam. "Guys! What's goin on?" She asked.
"Jacob brought us here. That's all we could get out of his goons." Sarah replied. Her cheeks were red from what Sam had guess was crying. She looked around. Sango and Kagome were in the cell next to her, and Inuyasha, Miroku, and Hiten were sharing a cell next to Sarah and Eric's.
"OK. That answers what we're doing here. But why am I dressed up like THIS?" Sam yelled as she pointed out that she was dressed up like an ice skater. Sure she skated, and she had a few dresses in her closet, actually, the one she was wearing was her favorite one that she owned.
"I can answer that." A voice said as a door opened loudly and someone walked in.
"What the hell are you up to you basturd?" Sam yelled, recognizing that it was Jacob. "Why did you bring us here, and why am I dressed like a God damn ice skater!" Sam yelled. She was furious now. This was the last straw. But when she went to touch the bar, she was shocked and fell to the ground, still conscious.
"Sam!" Eric yelled. "Sam! Are you OK?"
Sam moved to show that she was still alive.
"You are here, well, Sam is at least, because I figured this was the only way for me to have her. The rest of you are just along for the ride." Jacob said. Then he went to Sam's cell. "And you, Love, are dressed up like an ice skater because I thought you were always most beautiful when you were onthe ice."
"Why don't you just leave her alone?" Eric yelled. "You're the same way Koga was with Kagome, always anting her when she didn't want him because she was in love with someone else! Sam doesn't love you!"
"Do you wish to fight with me, mortal?" Jacob asked.
"Maybe. But I want you to leave Sam alone! You're doing nothing but hurting her! Do you think she wants to be with someone who hurts her and her friends like you have to everyone in this room?" Eric yelled. "Would you want to be with someone who has hurt you as much as you've hurt Sam?"
"She has hurt me. Much worse than I could ever hurt her!" Jacob yelled back, getting in Eric's face. "It was when we were going to school together."
"Jake! That was a misunderstanding! I didn't do anything!" Sam yelled.
"I was going to meet her at her locker, but what did I see? I saw her sucking face with some werewolf. It's no wonder she fell for the wolf! That's why I sent him off!" Jake yelled.
"That werewolf moved in on me! I was trying to push him away from me! But he wouldn't let up! It wasn't until someone came along a actually helped me by pulling him off me that I could get rid of him! Then I went to find you!" Sam yelled. "You just jumped to conclusions! Just like everything that happens in the movies. Someone catches the one they love with someone else and jumped to that conclusion, when they are all wrong! I tried to call you to say I'm sorry, and to tell yo uthe truth! But you didn't listen! You wouldn't even go anywhere near me after that!" Sam yelled.
"Whatever. The past is the past. Now all of you rest. Sam, you will be getting up early to meet me tomorrow morning." Jacob said.
"If i's for skating, I gave that shit up a while ago." Sam said.
"I know you still go to the rink once in a while to practice. Good night." He said before he went back through the door, closing it loudly.
"Wow." Miroku said. "Poor guy."
Everyone glared at Miroku for that statement. Sango piped up then too. "Poor him? Poor HIM? What do you mean 'Poor Him'? We're the ones stuck in these cells! Where is he? He's out somewhere probably planning what he's going to do with all of us!" Sango yelled. "I can't believe I actually love you." She mumbled before slapping a hand over her mouth.
"What was that Sango?" Miroku asked. "Did you just say that you love me?"
"No! No I didn-"
"You did!" Miroku exclaimed. "Sango! That's wonderful!"
"Umm..." Was all Sango could say as a blush covered her face.
"I love you too Sango!" Miroku called to her from across the room.
Sango looked up at Miroku, a few tears going down her cheeks. "Really?" She asked.
"Really Sango." Miroku said smoothly as he gazed at Sango lovingly. He would kiss her, if he wasn't stuck behind bar across the room from her.
Sam slumped against the wall of her cell. A lone tear ran down her cheek before she quickly whiped it away. "Please Koga. Hear me. I need you here." She said as she swirled he finger in a circle, making a glowing picture of Koga, where he was. She sang as she watch Koga walking around the block of her neighborhood.
Hear me
Hear me
You gotta be out there
You gotta be somewhere
Wherever you are
I'm waiting
'Cause there are these nights when
I sing myself to sleep
And I'm hopin' my dreams
Bring you close to me
Are you listening?
She stood, causing the vision of Koga to vanish as if the wind had blown it away. She leaned against the wall, continuing her song.
Hear me
I'm cryin' out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down
Find me
I'm lost inside the crowd
It's getting loud
I need you to see
I'm screaming for you to please
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Can you hear me?
Hear me
I used to be scared of
Letting someone in
But it gets so lonely
Being on my own
No one to talk to
And no one to hold me
I'm not always strong
Oh, I need you here
Are you listening?
Hear me
I'm cryin' out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down
Find me
I'm lost inside the crowd
It's getting loud
I need you to see
I'm screaming for you to please
Hear me
I'm restless and wild
I fall, but I try
I need someone to understand
Can you hear me?
I'm lost in my thoughts
And baby I'm far
For all that I've got
Can you hear me?
Hear me
I'm cryin' out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down
Find me
I'm lost inside the crowd
It's getting loud
I need you to see
I'm screaming for you to please
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Sam walked to a window in her cell that looked out at the moon. There were bars, and she knew there was a barrier, but she continued to sing, her voice going outside the window.
Can you hear me?
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Can you hear me?
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
With Koga...
Koga stopped walking. He could have sworn he heard Sam screaming for him. He shook it off. Then he heard it again. "Sam?" He asked. Then he felt it, something in his chest hurt. What was going on? His brain kept telling him to follow what he was hearing. Maybe he should at least check it out. Then he felt more pain in his chest, and he heard a scream that sounded like Sam. He followed his senses and ran in the direction something was telling him to go. He didn't know what it was that pulled him to wherever he was going, but something was wrong, and he needed to check out what it was.
AN- OK. I think I've been more than fair with this chapter for those of you who like this story. So I'm going to stop here. K? I think this is the perfect place to stop. And I'll be updating this one more often along with InuGolf, because these have been going on for quite a bit, and I think an ending is coming up soon. But how will it end? Will they get to go to prom? Or will Jacob have his way and get Sam? Only the next few chapter will tell. Plz R&R. Thanx! TTFN!
