Change of Heart

Chapter One

The night had come; stars were shining high in the sky. The air was cold, chilling the woman; the wind was blowing and hitting her hard.

She pulled the blanket tighter around her. Her black hair was moving with the wind. She was bare-foot and barely dressed. Here eyes were closed, and tears were coming out of them.

Pain was evident in her face, not from any physical damage but from heart break. The man she loved had once again abandoned her.

So here she was wandering into the thick forest, with no weapons and no protection.

After 20 minutes of wandering through the forest she became lost and tripped on a root and was now lying on her back, sobbing. She didn't know when she had lost her blanket but now she was shaking from the cold, now noticing it.

5 minutes later she blacked out from exhaustion, forgetting that she was in a place unfit for a helpless woman.

Miles away from the forest

"Just leave me alone, you god-damn wench."

Inuyasha growled under his breath. Kagome had been fun at first, but then she got possessive and took away the freedom that he so loved.

Inuyasha had tried to talk to her and explain to her that he loved his freedom and he had asked her to give him some slack but she hadn't budged; something about not wanting him to get ideas in his head and run off, or another woman coming into the picture.

He had finally been able to get the enchanted beads around his neck off with a little help from Kiede after giving her an explanation about how his life was miserable, and he couldn't even take a walk by himself without HER being there. Kiede showed sympathy toward him, knowing that all demons needed to run loose at least for a little while, she also knew that Inuyasha wasn't the animal he had been when she had first met him him.

When Kagome found out about what he had done she had completely gone off her rocker trying to get him to put the beads back on. But he had adamantly refused.

First she had gotten pissed, trying to tell him what to do, and then she had gone to crying mode, thinking that he would fall for it, and lastly she had gone to begging and crying mode, which she was trying to use on him now.

"Inuyasha please wait, just talk to me, please just tell me what's wrong, I love you." Kagome called after him, trying to keep up with his long stride.

"Get it through your thick skull woman. I don't love you. You mean absolutely nothing to me, I wouldn't give a damn if you dropped dead right now."

"You're just saying that, you're just a little angry that's all. Please calm down. It will all be alright in the morning. Just come back to the house and we can have a nice long discussion about this."

"It's over Kagome. Go away."

He lengthened his stride. She was crying even harder now.

"I love you Inuyasha, please don't leave me."

"Go to Hell." Inuyasha called over his shoulder, before leaping into the air and disappearing into the night sky, leaving a depressed and teary eyed Kagome watching him from her position on the ground.

Somewhere in a far away town with lots of women

"Come on ladies keep dancing. Yes, that's how I like it, come on now don't tire out on me so soon."

"O Miroku, when are we going to have some real fun?"

"O but I like seeing you dance, makes me want to do what you're all doing." He got up and started to dance with them, groping at each woman that came close, which was all of them.

They had him far beyond intoxicated so he was a complete idiot and unable to think for himself.

When they finally got tired of dancing with the idiot they pinned him down and were undressing him when a man burst into the room.

"Hey you can't just . . ."

"There's a demon coming we have to go, we have to go!" The man yelled at them.

The women started to scream and run around in circles, until they finally got a clue that they weren't heading toward a door.

"Door, there's the door, that way."

They all squished through the door, obviously no one teaching them how to go through single file. Miroku was laughing like a maniac, not fully realizing what the Hell was going on.

"Hey don't leave me ladies, come play with me." He called out before rolling over on his side, stoned.

The demon was very large, had an ugly face with horns sticking out of his forehead. One arm was much longer than the other, which he was using to swing around at different houses and huts.

People were running around the demon trying to go different directions screaming their heads off, not giving a second thought that they should have been running away from the demon, and not getting closer to him.

The demon decided he was hungry, so he started picking out people two at a time, that were running around his legs. He nibbled on there heads and sucked off their arms, leaving the people screaming and begging for mercy, which the demon had no idea what they were saying.

Once the demon had his fill with them he smashed a few more huts before bounding off in the direction of the heavily wooded forest, where his home resided.
