"Battle Against the Dark Hearts"
By Night Youkai
Chapter 14
"Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha shot up from his sleep. His I flew around the room searching for any sign of his older brother. There was no one there, accept the young girl still asleep in the bed next to him; he was alone yet again. Had it all been a dream or was it a message of hope? He settles back down on the floor matt that severed as his bed, and breathed in Kagome's scent to calm himself. He looked toward the sleeping girl and saw the light pink glow of the Shikon jewel that hung gently around her neck. No matter what will happen in the battles to come Inuyasha made a promise to himself that Kagome would always be protected. The Shikon would glow brightly with ever thought of love her had for Kagome. He thought it was it was sad when at jewel knew your heart before you did. His mother once told him that the jewel was the heart of its holder and you guide them to their true loves as it did for to his youkai father. Well if it was going to act as his hear then there was only one place where it truly belonged and that was with Kagome. He had slipped it around her neck while she slept, the night after the battle in the dark forest. She had said nothing knows he would deny the gift he gave, but it did warm his heart to see her wear it.
'If my brother is alive, I promise I will find him. I promise to avenge our parents and bring my brother home. I will protect and keep all of my family safe.' Suddenly he stiffened as her felt a warm hand gently stroke his doggy ears. The hanyou glance at his sleeping mate and saw was still sleeping. He sighed and gave it a contented purr it was ok to enjoy the touch as long as she didn't know her did. With in seconds he let himself sleep in the peace of the night and let his worries fade into the darkness.
"There's a storm coming. It would be best for you to stay close to the castle Kagome. I have to return to the dark forest I want you to stay with Weasley and potter today." Inuyasha was preparing to leave and was avoiding looking at the fuming heart appritation.
You do know she is not going to let you get away, don't you?
' I know but I can Get a least a head start be foe she says you-know- what.'
RUN! RUN! RUN! MATE IS SAYING IT!
'What I don't hear anything.' Inuyash was half way to the door when his hanyou picked up a faint "sit".
"Oof!" once again he was greeted by his old friend the floor.
OW!
'That hurt. Ok youkai side was right.'
HOOOOOOOWL! WHIMPER!
'Groan' well there's a first time for everything
"I don't think so Inuyasha! I am not going to just SIT,"
"Oof!"
"Here while you go out into a snow storm and possibly die over clues from a battle that happened over a month ago!"
"Bitch . . . I'll be fine I hanyou remember! I can take a little snow! Besides I can smell stuff through the snow." as soon as he had peeled himself from the floor he was sat once again, and again he as cursing as he was kissing the floor.
' I really wish she would stop doing that!'
KEEP YOUR TRAP SHUT AND SHE WILL!
WHIMPER!
That's not a little snow that's a fucking blizzard! You are going to SIT (Oof!) there and be a good little puppy or else." Not that he would ever admit it he was really terrified of Kagome's temper, but his other sides had no probably voicing their fear.
Shut up and do as she says!
NO MAKE MATE MAD! MATE HURT!
' SHUT UP I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING!' He stayed on the ground and waited out the spell but he was too mad at her for sitting him. She was showing him that she really care about him he just wished it didn't have to hurt like hell. He slow rose from his deepening imprint. "Fine Wench! Whatever you want you win."
Lair!
' Shut up!'
MATE WILL BE MAD!
"Look I really want you to stay with potter today I have to see the cat and Snapie about homework and the holiday projects. It could take awhile and I know you wanted to go to the human town with them. Just be back before dark."
You really don't think she'll believe you do you?
The youkai side had taken off for the hills he didn't want to be they're when Kagome sat them again. But youkai side didn't know you couldn't hide far inside in the hanyou mind.
"Alright Inuyasha," The human side's draw drop he never saw Kagome give up so easily "But if you're lying to me the you be stuck to the ground for a year!" I knew there was a catch!
Kagome stormed out of the tower slamming the door behind her making the hanyou human and youkai sides all wince. Now that he was free he jumped out of the window and ran for the forest.
Running fast and deep in to the forest he felt free and at home. The years of living here alone made him rely on the safety it offered the loneliness never bothered him before but that was before a young Gryffindore with sapphire eyes and warm laugh came in to his heart and refused to leave. He reached his cave and Shippo was waiting of him.
"What took you so long it's freezing in here!"
"Quit complain you the lower youkai you don't question the higher Youkai's request."
"You maybe higher but you're a hanyou so I don't have to take you seriously." Inuyasha glared at the tiny fox one of these days he was for to rip that smart tongue right out of that fat head of his. Yet he resisted the urge Kagome would be upset since she had a soft spot of the little youkai. Kagome thought he was going to look for clues the truth was he had all the info He needed from the battle. He was here for on reason and that was to make his Christmas present for Kagome. He never knew what the holiday was till he met Kagome he just knew that the students left the school 3 times a year and only few students stayed during the first to breaks. But this would be the first year he had ever given something to Kagome even with the wizard net he need this gift to express to her his hearts true feelings. So naturally he had to rely on the little fox to gather the thing necessary to complete his task.
"Shut up. Did you get the cloth? And the other things?"
"Yeah I put them under your nest to keep the light off of it but since it's so dark I don't see the point."
"That's because you're a moron! The fire-rat cloth is alive! If you expose it to light then it comes to life and there is no way to prevent from strangling you to death." Inuyasha smirked at the sight of the fox going deathly white. In his cave, which despite living in the castle was surprising neat and clean, he started a fire an set a cauldron to boil adding Kagome's tear and his fang he pulled out month ago. Shippo watched in amazement as he watched the hanyou pull out the fire rat clothe and do battle with it. The cloth was rendered harmless after a few choice cuts from the Testsusaiga. He hours swept by faster than expected as the hanyou worked diligently at the task at hand. The tiny fox fell to sleep around 10 and Inuyasha took pity on the child and put him in his nest to sleep.
It was two in the morning when Inuyasha came back to the tower relieving the sleepy Gryffindore guards from their duty. He yawn as he made his way to his little matt trying to avoid the piercing eyes that followed his every move. He was just about to pull the blanket over him when a voice called out from the darkness.
"Where were you Inuyasha?" Kagome's voice was deadly calm. He was dead he knew it if fact all his sides knew in opt to keep their traps shut.
' GREAT THE ONE TIME I NEED THEM THEY LEAVE!' the hanyou's ears were down and her gulped down his fear and tried to think of a lie.
"You went into the dark forest even though you said you were going to stay in the castle! You Lied to Inuyasha." Her eyes clouded with unshed tears his little white lie had hurt her deeply.
"Kagome It's not what you think. I really didn't mean to lie but I had things to do that had to be done before we left for the human world. When I finished I was caught in a snowstorm I just waited it out in my cave." Ok so he was only telling a half-truth. There was no snowstorm but he did have to secure the forest wards as well as make her gift. He hated that he made her sad but he want to make this Christmas to be the greatest. In all the years they had Christmas together he never once gave her a real gift. Sure after he got the net up and running he could but still there was at least 2 years he got her nothing. He just wishes he didn't have to hurt her to make this gift special.
"Inuyasha come here." He got up from the floor and sat on the bed beside her. His ears were still down a tinted pink feeling the shame for hurting Kagome. There was a strained silence between them and then Kagome threw her arms around him and hugged him tight sobbing in to his shoulder. Inuyasha was surprised but it quickly fades as his arms came around her and held her close soothing away her tears. "I was so scared that soothing happed to you. Please don't leave me like that again."
"I'm sorry I worried you I didn't mean to. I won't ever leave you." ' You are me heart and soul' he hugged her am stoked her hair calming the tears away. She nuzzled in to his arm breathing in his comforting scent and the scent of the woods off his kimono.
"Stay with me tonight." He whisper plea made him blush. They've only ever share the bed when he was to injured to move or when he nightmare would wake her and he would hold her till she was asleep again. Now she wanted to share the bed free and willing but he wanted to wait till they were real mates before they shared the bed or mating nest in youkai terms.
"Oh Kagome I can't ... I mean I want to but..." she knew what he was doing. The stupid hanyou had too much honor and he was saving hers. This made her heart swell with love for him.
"Inuyasha I need to be with you. It feels like it's a dream that you are really still in the forest. I feel I'll wake up and you'll be gone lying in the forest hurt or worst. You mean a lot to me Inuyasha you're my best friend."
"Shh... Kagome it's ok I'm right here. I care lot about you too. You are my only friend and you the greatest. Whatever happens in battle I will always come home to you. Now go to sleep you need your rest we leave for the human world the tomorrow." A/N:: I fall to the mercy of my readers for the lateness of this post!
Inuyasha: Mercy that's funny go a head tell them where you were!
N Y: -- you know you are a pain in the . . .
Kagome: " so night how wasyoru trip to Arizona?
