The last chapter of Perfect Angel is in slow progress because I have to bring everything together and it will be quite long. PLEASE BE PATIENT! PLEASE.

I also have this note in my profile. I really am having update troubles.


Inuyasha's eyes widened, but not nearly as much as the eyes of Kagome's family. Mrs. Higurashi covered Sota's eyes, and didn't notice when the boy glanced around her hand.

The moment was perfect… like everything was in place. When Kagome pulled away Inuyasha just held her in his arms, comforting her. He knew that she had been afraid, and maybe… she just needed someone there.

But in front of her family…did Kagome get possessed or something?

He wondered. But when speaking aloud, in a rather off and odd sounding tone he spoke, "We should be heading back or another demon might attack the shrine."

Kagome nodded and grabbed a huge yellow backpack from her closet, and began filling it with all sorts of things that Inuyasha still didn't know what they were for. Kagome's family were surveying him very closely now, and Sota was wide-eyed and staring at Inuyasha in awe, obviously having found a new role model.

Inuyasha sighed remembering the kid the last time they had gone through this, for one week during Kagome's 'tests' Sota had, had the week off and was following him around and copying everything. Flinching slightly Inuyasha turned back to Kagome, who had make a small "ta-da" sound.

He watched as she gave her family hugs and told them she would be back as soon as she could and he watched this whole emotional thing between her and her mother, they were also gossiping quietly about Inuyasha. Kagome seemed to have forgotten he could hear, but this time he could not, because Sota had taken a cue to speak so loudly that the females voices drowned out.

"SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 'Inuyasha' right? You are going out with my sister Kagome? Coool. Hojo, a kid at her school, you know what one is right(a school)? Well anyway, Hojo keeps asking her out and she always skips out on him and I bet now that it's because she knows you but of course that doesn't make sense because she met a few days ago and…"

Inuyasha could not take it, Sota was acting oddly annoying. As annoying as the kid could be sometimes this was the worst. Maybe it was because the first thing Sota had really seen Inuyasha do besides eat ramen was fight.

He gave a pleading glare to Kagome and Kagome nodded. Kagome's mother also seemed to get the message, and told Sota to go to bed because he had school tomorrow. Kagome smiled and said good bye one more time and they left the shrine for the well house.

That demon hadn't come last time…

Kagome couldn't help but think this as she and Inuyasha walked back. Her mother and she had been talking about the relationship between Kagome and Inuyasha. Kagome told her mother what she knew Inuyasha would want said, that she had met Inuyasha 3 nights ago (4 nights now) and it was a love at first sight.

Well, the love at first sight part maybe not…

But she was positive the demon was not there the last time they had gone through this… maybe things would not be exactly the same as before. Maybe Yura would not appear…

She thought these thoughts as she jumped back into the well, holding Inuyasha's hand and wearing his red jacket thing, its name forgotten temporarily to her.

When they came out it was morning and she started in the direction of the village, but was stopped when he grabbed her arm. "I smell Yura. Be on your guard Kagome." He told her grimly, his nose to the air, trying to catch the scent's source.

When he got what he found to be the source he let Kagome on his back and they ran off.

Kagome quickly whispered "Duck your head a bit" and when Inuyasha complied he felt something thin but sharp pass over him.

"You see the hair?" he asked her. Kagome nodded a made an "hmp" noise, signaling she did. Inuyasha ran on for a few more minutes, trying to find Yura. But now that the hair was here, her scent was lightly coating everything he smelled.

Cursing, Inuyasha stopped and looked around. Kagome muttered something and Inuyasha only caught the word "…here"

When he asked for the phrase to be repeated she said "Yura is here." And Inuyasha suddenly felt a force lift him up off the ground by his chin and send him backwards, with Kagome now underneath him.

Quickly he turned so he wouldn't land on the teen, but could do nothing to stop their fall, he landed on his butt and Kagome just flopped down, falling unconscious.

Great… he thought as Yura came out of the shadows. What'll I do now?
