CHPATER 2

The demon glanced up and saw the young fairy leaning out her window watching him. He smiled as she continued looking at him with great interest. ' She does not hide from me and yet she knows that I'm a demon. Everyone I've ever met have always been frightened when they saw me and yet she is not'

"Hey! Is there a reason why you're starring at me?" He called up to her. He couldn't help but smile as she gave a startled jump.

"No, it's just that I've never seen a demon before."

"Then you should probably go out into the forest and find one."

"I can't go out is because I'm not allowed. No fairy is allowed to leave, but I'm always being watched. Even I f I hadn't tried to escape so many times I would still be watched." She said with a hint of sadness mixed with jealousy.

"Are you the Chosen of the fairies or something?"

"Yes I am. But I wish so much that I weren't" She said.

He smiled when he heard the longing in her voice. A breeze blew just then and Kagome's dark hair blew slightly with it. "If you want to leave so badly why don't come along with me. You can get out of the palace, see the world."

"Is it safe?"

"Sure. Do you trust me"?

"What?" Kagome asked, confused that he would her ark her such a thing

"Do you trust me?" Inuyasha repeated looking up at her from below.

"I'm not sure. We just met. So can I tell if I should trust you of not."

"I believe that we trust someone the very second we meet them. It's only after they break that trust are hesitiant to give out our trust again"

Kagome was silent for a second as she thought things through. 'I'm actually getting a chance to leave this horrid place' Kagome thought, 'But I don't know this demon. What if he's only pretending to be nice? What if it's a trap or something? What if I get caught? What if the sky turned green?' Kagome shook her head, 'why am I even thinking about this? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I plan on taking it. I know I can't come back, but I don't care. I don't want to come back anyway

"I'll go!" Kagome decided

"All right then. Well can you fly down or something?" He asked looking at her wings.

"No. I can't fly. If I fly in this room then an alarm is sounded. It's some sort of device that I can't even locate."

"I see. Well if you can't come down then I'll come up!" He said as he started climbing up the wall with great speed. Soon he was at the top and he climbed in the window and looked into Kagome's emerald eyes and she looked back into his golden ones. He finally snapped out of it and began looking around. "For being so important you have a pretty small room"

"Well, it's just that-" Kagome began as she grabbed a bag that she had packed earlyier that day for when she was trying to runaway. A voice echoing throughout the hall cause her to freeze

"KAGOME!" It was her sister.

"Oh no! It's my sister we must go now!" Kagome said her voice full of fear.

The stranger nodded and said "Get on my back." Kagome did as she was told without hesitation.

"KAGOME!" Her sister yelled again just a few feet away from the door

"GO!" Kagome yelled. Then they ran over to the window just as her sister walked in

"WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?" She yelled looking from her sister to the boy who's back she sat on.

"Let's go!" Kagome said and her rescuer jumped out the window and ran into the forest.

He stopped after he had been running for about 15 minutes. They were now deep in the forest. No one from the fairy village would go past the border of the forest Kagome knew that for sure. They were frightened of it.

"That was close." Kagome said jumping off the stranger's back

"Yeah, it was. So that was your sister?" He said sitting down

Kagome nodded

"You know, I went and saved you from your sister and I don't even know your name'

"It's Kagome." She said smiling "What's yours?"

"I'm Inuyasha" Kagome gave a little gasp when she heard this.

"Well thank you, for saving me" She said trying not to think about her dog and the fact that they had the same name. Not to mention that her dog's fur was the same color as Inuyasha's hair. This was getting just a little bit strange.

"Forget it" he said taking her away from her thoughts.

"No! I won't forget it, because if it weren't for you I would still be trapped there."

"Look wench! When I said forget it. I meant forget it." Inuyasha said losing his temper

"Don't you dare call me that! My name is Kagome and I'd like it if you used it!" Kagome yelled back.

"I don't care what you like wench and I'll call you whatever I want to."

"As thankful as I am I won't let you call me that. So if you don't call me by my name I'll leave." She said turning around

"Oh really? So tell me, Kagome. Where do you plan on going?"

Kagome froze at his words. He was right. She had no where to go. If she stayed in the forest she would probably get killed by a demon and if she tried to go home and she actually made it there she would he murdered by her sister.

Inuyasha smiled as she tried to decide what to do in this dilemma

"Fine then! I'll stay, but only because you called me by my real name."

"Well then you better get some sleep, because we have a lot of ground to cover tomorrow." Inuyasha said looking at her as she turned to face him. Something around her neck glistened in the moonlight. Inuyasha ran over and took it gently into his hands.

"Um, Inuyasha? What are you doing?" Kagome asked felling a bit uncomfortable with him so close.

"Where did you get this?' He demanded.

"My dog brought to me a long time ago. He brought it from the forest." When Inuyasha gave her a strange look she hastened to explain. "He was always bringing me things from the forest, because he knew how much I wanted to go there."

"Where is this dog of yours?"

"He's dead. My sister killed him a week after he brought it to me"

What was his name?"

Why do you care what his name was?" Kagome said grabbing the jewel out of his hand.

"Just tell me his name wench!" Inuyasha yelled

"Maybe I would tell you if you stopped calling me that!" Kagome yelled back

"Fine then. What was his name, Kagome?" He asked. Kagome turned her head so that she was not looking at him.

"His name was Inuyasha." She said so quietly it wasn't audible

"What?"

"His name was Inuyasha!" she yelled

"What did he look like?" He asked as Kagome sat herself down into the grass.

"He had this beautiful silver coat and deep golden eyes. Just like yours. When I first saw you I actually thought that you were him" She said gazing at the stars.

"Is this some kind of joke?" Inuyasha asked angrily

Kagome tore her eyes away from the night sky and focused them onto the young demon's face. "Why would I lie to you? What would I gain from that?"

"I don't know. I guess that I was a little surprised." He said sitting down next to her and looking deeply into her eyes

"Yeah." Kagome said not really paying attention. She was to focased on his eyes. Inuyasha leaned closer to her. So their faces were no more than a few inches apart. He got even closer and then pushed his lips against hers gently. Suddenly Inuyasha tore away and stood up looking alarmed.

"What is it?" Kagome asked standing up slowly

"Demons. There are about twenty of them and their surrounding us." Inuyasha replied
