Demonic Desires

2

Koga moved slightly in order to be in front of Kagome. Even though he had already sustained serious injuries, Koga knew that he had to protect Kagome for both her sake and Inuyasha's. It was not the real him, but merely his demon blood acting up. Something that was hard to control and deep down, the real Inuyasha was screaming and fighting for it all to stop so he would not harm Kagome. And Koga would keep the demon at bay until somehow Inuyasha could regain control of his body. Or maybe until someone helped him get under control and back to a regular half demon.

Until then, however, it was up to Koga. Kagome did not want this, Koga did not want it, and Inuyasha sure as hell didn't want to do it. But it was the demonic side of him, begging and pleading to be released to kill and to get what he wanted…and that was something that Kagome had.

"Inuyasha," Koga growled menacingly, sending death glares at the demon, "Leave her alone." He could feel Kagome tense behind him, fear was obviously kicking in by now and her breathing quickened.

Inuyasha smirked, amusement in his blood red eyes. He was not going to comprehend with Koga's order. He would stop at nothing to get what he desired. "What are you gonna do, huh, Koga?" His grin grew bigger when he saw Koga ball his hands into fists and shake with suppressed rage and pain. He swung at Inuyasha, who was not expecting the blow, and made contact with his left jaw. Inuyasha stumbled backward and rubbed crimson blood from his now bleeding mouth. Then, he leapt at Koga with amazing speed, punching him in the stomach and slicing across his already injured chest. Koga cried out in pain, but managed to choke out, "Kagome, run!"

Kagome nodded and ran toward the mouth of the cave. Inuyasha went after her, but Koga grabbed him in a tight headlock, giving Kagome a nice head start. Inuyasha growled in annoyance and frustration and flipped Koga over his shoulder and onto the hard cave bottom. By that time, Ginta and Hikaku had built up the courage to challenge Inuyasha. When they did, however, he slashed both of them across their chests and necks and took off after the retreating Kagome.

Kagome was surprised at how cold it was. Fall is almost over, she realized as she continued to run away, not really knowing where she was headed. Her bare arms and legs were cold and had goose bumps appearing all over them. When she let out a quick, heavy breath, it came out in white tufts and floated away. It was completely dark, now, and she could barely see, tripping over a few roots here and there and getting hung up in thick vines. She tripped one time, landing with a dull 'thud' on the dry and hard ground. She let out a breathless "Oof," when her stomach made contact with the ground. She stood up and brushed herself off quickly and went to start running again when something heavy landed on her, throwing her back down onto the ground again.

She knew who it was, even though she did not want to know. She wanted to wake up from this terrible nightmare, safe next to the real Inuyasha next to the orange campfire.

But that was no dream. Oh, no. It was all very, very real. And very horrifying. He rolled her over onto her back and pinned her down, holding her wrists down with his hands and dug his knees into her thighs. He was heavy! Mostly muscle, she guessed. He grinned down at her defenseless form as she lay on the ground like a dying dog who was whining out pitifully for help. "Inuyasha, please stop,"

"Aw, come on, Kagome," He said in his deep demonic tone, "You know you want to."

"Inuyasha," Kagome said softly, "This isn't you. You wouldn't do this. I know you. And I know that you wouldn't hurt me. You always protect me, but you never hurt me."

Inuyasha glowered at her, "You don't know me," He said, matter-of-factly. "No one knows anything about me. No one knows how I feel or what I want or what I would and would not do." He leaned down in order to whisper in her ear, his warm breath on her neck, "I want you, Kagome."

Chills ran marathons up and down her spine at both his words and his breath. His legs fell from her thighs slightly, giving her the opportunity to try and move. But before she could squeeze either right or left and try to get out from under his heavy frame, he hitched his right leg over her waist and straddled her. She managed to ignore the warmth of his hips and say, "Inuyasha, no, don't do this."

The left corner of his mouth pulled back into a grin, "Come on, Kagome," He urged, "Inuyasha won't mind. And plus, we both want it. Even Inuyasha does."

Kagome looked around frantically at the darkness, moss covered trees, tree roots, weeds, and bushes that surrounded them. She did not know what to do. But soon, she figured something out. Right when he closed in the remaining space between them in order to press his lips against hers, she screamed, "Help! Anybody! Sango! Miroku! Koga! HELP ME!"

Inuyasha was a little taken aback by her sudden outburst, but waved it off and continued. He was merely a centimeter away from her when someone tackled him off of Kagome and they went rolling across the ground violently. Kagome sat up, shaken and relieved at the same time. But the cold air blasted onto her and she, in a strange way, missed the warmth of Inuyasha's body. She watched in horror as Koga began to punch Inuyasha in the face repeatedly, only to have Inuyasha roll over and begin to choke the life from Koga, his claws dug into his neck. She saw the crimson liquid seep from the puncture wounds and pour down over Inuyasha's hands and onto the ground.

"No, stop it, leave him alone!" Kagome screeched, her voice breaking with emotion. Mostly sadness and fear. "Inuyasha, it's me you want, not him!"

Inuyasha paused momentarily to smirk up at her, "Yeah, but he's always getting in the way. Better to eliminate him now than deal with him later when we're finally alone and together." Then, he began to choke Koga some more, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth and down his cheeks. He was hardly moving and making an effort to fight and break free and Kagome knew what was happening. He could not breathe. Inuyasha was closing off his windpipe and Koga was choking. She ran over to where the two were at, wrestling in a heap on the ground, and slapped Inuyasha as hard as she possibly could across his left cheek. The massive impact stunned him long enough for Kagome to get Koga away from him and start running.

Koga coughed blood up and it fell down his chin and neck where it joined more blood from where Inuyasha's claws had been digging into the flesh. "Koga, are you ok? Oh, My God, this is all my fault."

"No," Koga rasped, "It isn't. I…I-I chose to pro-protect you. I-I love you, K-Kagome." He coughed even more, struggling to breathe through the thick red blood. "I would never let anything bad happen to you. And I-I know that mutt-face doesn't w-wanna hurt you either…but….that's why I'm protecting you…so Inuyasha won't lose trust in himself. And so you won't have to go through…that horrible…stuff…"

Kagome felt tears welling up in her eyes, clouding her vision. She wanted to cry because she was so afraid and wanted everything to be normal again. She did not want to see anyone else get hurt over her.

Both Koga and Kagome kept running, blood falling from Koga's wounds and tears streaming from Kagome's eyes. But, Inuyasha's demon voice closed in on them and pretty soon, they had nowhere to go because there was a huge cliff right in front of them.

"All right, Koga," Inuyasha said, amusement dripping from every syllable, "Time for you to die." He cracked his knuckles and raced toward the injured Koga. "No!" Kagome screamed. It did no good. Inuyasha punched Koga anyway, slashing his chest again. Koga ducked on one blow and managed to return it with a hard kick to the face of the full dog demon. Inuyasha stumbled back, only to have Koga kick him again, then punch him in the stomach. Inuyasha doubled over in an attempt to retrieve the air that he had lost. Koga then brought his knee up to Inuyasha's face. Koga collapsed after that, panting madly for oxygen. He was tired and out of energy. The battle was pretty much one sided with Koga on the defensive. Pretty soon, it would all be over and Koga would be the loser, dying at the hands of Inuyasha, the only man Kagome ever loved.

Inuyasha got up to hit Koga again, but the wolf demon managed to stand and he slugged Inuyasha right in the nose, causing the demon to yowl in pain and hold his bleeding nose. Kagome ran over to where Koga kneeled, panting hard. Inuyasha charged at the two, but Kagome had picked up a handful of sand and threw it all over Inuyasha's face. He screamed and grabbed at his now stinging eyes. Kagome used this chance to run. She heaved Koga to his weak feet and began to run back into the forest.

Suddenly, she heard someone's familiar voice. A voice she thought she'd never hear again. Sango's. And also Miroku's and Shippo's. Hatchi (Spelling?) was with them. "Kagome?! Inuyasha?! Where are you?!"

"Over here!! Help me!" Kagome screeched, pushing her feet to go faster, fear motivating her to go to the limit. "Please, hurry!"

They were there very quickly and saw the injured Koga and very frightened Kagome. "What's going on?" Sango demanded, concern etched in her voice. "I'll explain later. But right now, we got to go!"

Kagome got onto Kilala's back with Sango while Miroku and Koga got on Hatchi's. "How did you know where to find me?" Kagome asked.

"Shippo said that he smelled your blood. And we all came to check on you." Sango explained as they left the horrifying nightmare of the forest, "Where's your injuries?"

"My wrists, but I bandaged them up." Kagome answered truthfully.

"What happened?"

"Inuyasha…the Tetsusaiga broke and…well, he snapped. Ever since he's been after me…"

"To kill you?" Sango was worried now.

"No…to…rape me…" Kagome said, tears falling down her face while she shuddered in fear and sadness.

-----

Sango comforted a crying Kagome while Kaede tended to Koga's wounds. He lay on the floor of her hut, unconscious. The bleeding had stopped, but he was still injured very badly on his chest and back. "Will he be all right, Lady Kaede?" Miroku asked as he watched her work silently.

"Aye. He will be. But if will be difficult for him to battle for about three or four days." She answered softly, shooting a concerned glance at Kagome, who had her head in her arms, sobbing gently. Sango and Kagome had explained the situation to all of them and Kaede offered to join in--along with her villagers--in order to stave off Inuyasha. But Kagome refused to offer, saying, "No. I don't want anyone else to get hurt over me. I'll deal with it on my own."

"How will ye deal with Inuyasha on your own?" Kaede had demanded angrily.

"I-I don't know. Maybe I can…I don't know…talk him into stopping and changing back to normal." Kagome had answered. "Just don't put anyone else in danger because of me! Look what happened to Koga!"

Everyone was quiet after that. Now, Kagome just simply wept while Sango hugged her tightly, saying over and over, "It's going to be ok. I promise. Everything will be all right."

And at that time, Kagome really wanted to believe her. She wanted everything to be fine and Inuyasha to be normal and Koga to get well. She wanted to hunt jewel shards now. She would not mind if Inuyasha yelled at her every time she tried to go home for school. And she missed giving Inuyasha ramen.

At that time…She wished things would be all right.

But, soon afterward, they took a sharp turn for the worst.
