Last time: Kikyo came and asked if Charlie wanted to become a dog again, and he said no. Kay asked him why he said no, and he kissed her! Can you believe it? It's amazing... And sort of creepy.


Chapter 17: All My Fault

Kay finished tying the bandana around her neck and then went to tie Charlie's, biting her tongue as she did it. She smiled and stood up straight to look at Charlie. She reached up to the top of his head and started petting the fuzzy ears up there. Charlie instantly responded by slowly falling to the ground and letting Kay sit behind him to pet the fuzzy ears that were almost identical to InuYasha's.

"I'm glad you have ears like this. They're so cute!" Kay said, petting them continuously. I'm sure Kagome would love to do the same to InuYasha's ears, Kay thought as she rubbed the ears.

Kay stopped as Charlie turned around and went on all fours. He edged closer to her and she blushed. She giggled a little bit and said, "Charlie! What are you doing? You've become very affectionate lately..." Kay gasped. "You sick dog! I'm not going to do that!"

Charlie laughed. "If I wanted that I would just do it!" Charlie said. Kay glared at Charlie and he blushed a bit. His tail hung limply and he looked at Kay, pouting.

"Well, you've still become affectionate," Kay said.

"Actually, I'm just feeling more natural. I used to play with you all the time like this when I was a dog... But when we became the same species, sort of, that wasn't aloud," Charlie said. Kay raised an eyebrow.

"You expect me to believe that?" Kay asked.

Charlie thought for a moment and nodded. "Yes. Yes I do." Charlie started to edge closer to Kay's face and Kay continued to look at him, blushing.

"Whoa!" said a familiar voice. Kay and Charlie turned their heads quickly, their faces as red as fire trucks, to see InuYasha standing in the doorway. Next to him was Kagome, looking starry eyed and giggled a little bit.

Charlie backed away from Kay and they both blushed, looking ashamed.

Kagome giggled and said, "You better not do that anymore. Sesshomaru's coming!"

"I forgot about Sesshomaru!" Kay said and then she looked at Kagome carefully, her blush still not completely gone. "Where's Rin?"

"She's with Kohaku and Shippo, playing. Why?" Kagome answered.

Kay shrugged. "Just wondering." She stood up and brushed off her pants. She looked at Charlie and giggled a little bit.

"What the hell is going on?" InuYasha asked, looking at Charlie carefully. The two just blushed in response.

Kay looked at the floor and hummed a little bit.

"I think that Kay and Charlie finally realized they have feelings for each other," Kagome said, giggling. The two just blushed even more.

"I'm going to go for a walk, all right?" Kay said, walking out of the hut.

"Aren't you going to go with her?" Kagome asked.

Charlie shook his head. "Naw. She can fend for herself," Charlie said. Though, he did stand up and walk out of the room, only to explore the village, though.

Kay walked through the forest, following a path that was already made in there. She looked up into the sky and sighed. It looked like it might rain today also. Though, it was starting to get dark early... Especially with all the clouds blocking the sun.

Even though the sky was dark, Kay smiled and continued to walk through the forest, taking a detour and going off of the trail. She loved walking through the main part of the forest, going through all the underbrush and dodging the branches. She ran, giggling like a little school girl every so often. Why don't I play in the forest more often? Kay asked herself as she ducked under a tree branch and went through the thicket.

If a demon were to be chasing her they would have a tough time following her, because of how she was maneuvering through the forest. It was like she was a deer, traveling through the trees and bushes. Kay looked around and realized that she didn't know exactly where she was, but she just shrugged and knew that she would be able to find her way back, because she hadn't traveled too far away.

Kay jumped over a rock and then ran into a very small clearing, where all the fun stuff happens. Why don't important things happen in the middle of the thick forest? Kay wondered, but she noticed that there was only about a couple feet of no trees, a slightly thinner area then the rest of the forest.

She heard something in the bushes and turned to where the noise came from. A figure came out from the forest and Kay grabbed for her sword, but relaxed once she found out it was just Sesshomaru.

"Ah. It's just you, Sesshomaru. What are you doing here?" Kay asked as she stood up straight.

"I wanted to talk to you," Sesshomaru said, looking at Kay carefully.

- - -

Charlie sighed, looking around. Kay had been gone for a while, and he was starting to get worried. He looked around and saw Sango playing with some village children. Deciding to tell the others where he was going, he walked over Sango and told her he was going to search for Kay.

"She left?" Sango asked, suddenly intrigued.

"No, just went for a walk... But she's been gone for a while, so I'm wondering if she is all right," Charlie said before saying his goodbyes and walking off to the forest. Sango smirked as he ran off, and turned back to play with the children.

Charlie ran through the forest, following Kay's trail, and he masked his scent as well as he could, having learned that from Kirara. Who knew she knew so much? He still liked to talk to her with his mind.

Soon he came upon a small clearing and stood downwind from it. He peeked from behind a tree and watched, curious of why Sesshomaru was there. Kay also looked surprised. Charlie's tail twitched behind him, wrapping around his body to keep himself warm. He felt a slow decline in the temperature and noticed that the clouds above them were darkening.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" Kay asked.

Sesshomaru kept emotionless and blinked a couple times before taking a couple steps towards her, though Kay took a step back.

"I wanted to know why you refused me," Sesshomaru said rather than asked.

"I'm not right for you... And you aren't right for me," Kay explained simply.

Sesshomaru smirked slightly, which got a raised eyebrow from Kay and Charlie. "Maybe I can change your mind," Sesshomaru said, taking a couple more steps forward and kissing her.

Charlie stood there, frozen in spot. His eyes didn't see anything else and his ears stopped working right then.

Kay pushed Sesshomaru back and glared at him. "What are you doing!" Kay yelled, growling slightly. "Besides, I'm a human... And... My heart belongs to someone else," Kay said, taking a couple steps back and turning. She froze when she saw Charlie standing there, looking at her intently, though with a hurt expression.

Because he wasn't listening or watching anything else that happened between the two, Charlie took a couple steps back and then started to run through the forest. Kay turned and glared at Sesshomaru before running after Charlie, yelling his name.

A crack of lightning went through the sky and soon the rain started to fall, covering up the tears that started to fall down Kay's face.

Kay got a glimpse of Charlie running away as she ran into the village, and suddenly understood what he was going to do. She gasped and ran to Kaede's hut and barged inside.

"Sango, I need to use Kirara!" Kay yelled. Suddenly the fire cat jumped of Sango's shoulder and walked over to Kay. Kay turned around and was stopped.

Shippo asked, "What happened?"

Kay turned towards the group, even more tears streaming down her face. "Charlie's going to become a dog again, and it's all my fault!"


Next Chapter: Charlie is traveling to find Kikyo to return himself to normal. Will he reach her before Kay finds Charlie? Or will Kay find him before hand and explain everything? Or will Charlie just kill randomly to ease the pain? Or am I just really mean because I made Charlie hurt?
