Let's get started with this new chapter! Yay!
Chapter 16:What Now?
Everyone stayed silent as the stood in the cold drafty room. Sesshomaru was the first one to really make a move, and that was towards the door. "Were are you going?" Inuyasha asked in a non-caring tone. "I'm going to find that bitch and get Rin back. If your smart, little brother, you'll stay out of my way." He answered, walking out of the room.
Kagome only sat only the floor, still staring at the gun in her hand. She is right. I broke the promise I had made her. There was no excuse. She thought with tears in her eyes. As she sat there, she could hear Sango crying, "I failed to kill that bitch again! I have to! Her blood will flow in Tokyo's streets before I'm done!" "I'm going to take Sango home." Miroku told Inuyasha. She then heard their footsteps walk out of the room, and knew it was only her and Inuyasha.
"Well, now you know. Sweet little Kagome, is a cold blooded murder." Kagome said to him, getting to her feet. "I believe that it was an accident." Inuyasha said to her. "She wasn't the only one Inuyasha!" She yelled, turning to look at him. He only stared at her with his piercing yellow eyes. "sixty-seven." She said glaring at him. "Sixty-seven what?" Inuyasha said, still glaring. "People! I killed sixty-seven people Inuyasha! All of them! Some of them didn't even know what the heck they did!" She yelled at him. His face did not change.
"So?" He asked. "Don't you get it! I kill a guy because he bumped into me and made me spill some of my soda on the ground!" She yelled. He still stared, not changing. "But Yurokia...she was different." Kagome said, her voice going soft. "How was she different?" Inuyasha asked. "She was going to join the group. She reminded me so much of myself, that I thought she deserved to be in. But that night, the other gang in town started causing trouble in our territory. I told her to stay there." Kagome started to explain, tears coming down her cheeks. "But she wanted to help. She said that she had to prove that she was ready. So she came after us. And during all the shots, I couldn't see who was what. And she ran up to me...and I didn't know who she was...and I shot her..." Kagome cried, falling back to the floor in tears.
"Now what?" Inuyasha asked, getting down next to her. She wiped her eyes, and looked into his yellows ones. "I have a question for you Kagome. Did Sesshomaru come to your house tonight?" He asked. "Yeah, why?" She answered, looking at him confused. He stood up without a word and walked over to the door. "Inuyasha! Wait!" Kagome cried from behind him. "Do you want me to always be by your side? Do you want me to never leave you every? Do you...love me?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha only stood in silence. He stared at the door, wondering what he could say. Of coarse I want you to always be there for me. But I don't want you to get hurt because of it. It would be best if you left me. He though with pain. He opened the door and stared at the dark black hall ahead. He clutched the doorknob and answered with pain, "No." He then walked out, knowing that a shock Kagome stood behind him.
Inuyasha waled through the busted doorway of his house and looked around. As he stood there, he could hear the vacuum upstairs, knowing his mom was trying to clean up. With a sigh, he walked into the living room and laid down on the couch. He clicked on the TV, but didn't really pay attention to it. His mind was on Kagome. I'm sorry Kagome, but I can't have you following after me all the time. You might get hurt, and I can't have that happen. He thought with pain. But as he thought about it, he started thinking about Kagome's smell. She had such a sweet smell. And her laugh drove him crazy. And he enjoyed having her around so much, that the pain of saying no to her was to intense. Do I love her? Inuyasha asked himself. With that last thought, He fell asleep.
Inuyasha awoke to the sound of a gun going off somewhere. His eyes shot open at the sound, and he quickly sat up and looked around, another shot echoed through the neighborhood. Inuyasha ran out of the living room and outside, listening for the sound again. As he heard it go off again, he knew it was a hand gun. He burst into speed towards the location of the sound, which wasn't to far away.
He ended up in a old alley, and what he saw was saddening. Kagome was dancing around in the alley, shooting bullets from her hand gun into the air, and drinking a bottle of Jack Daniels. She took another drink from the half empty bottle and shot another bullet from the gun as he walked forward. As the sound came from the gun, Inuyasha flattened his ears to his head. The sound was so loud to his sensitive hearing and it made his head hurt. As he got closer, she took another drink and went to shoot another bullet but only a click was hurt. "Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.
She turned around and looked at him for a second with drunken eyes. After a second a weary smile came to her face and she said, "Inuyasha! You came to play with me!" "What happened Kagome?' Inuyasha asked with disgust. Kagome spun in circles until she got dizzy and went to fall, but Inuyasha caught her. "Well, after you broke my heart, I went to have some fun!" She laughed. Inuyasha stared at her with disgust as she spoke. The whiskey on her breath made him sick and he just wanted to walk away. "Want some?" She offered in a drunken slur. "No thanks." He told her, standing her on her feet.
She stared at him for a second and then glared at him. "What is your problem! First you can't love me, now you don't even want to have fun with me!" she yelled. Inuyasha was about to argue with her, when she ran over to some trash can and threw up. As the smell reached him, Inuyasha felt like throwing up. The smell was hard on his sensitive nose. But ignoring the smell, he walked over and picked up the limp body of Kagome.
As he carried her away, the bottle of whiskey fell from her grip and crashed to the ground, which brought her back to her senses. "Inuyasha?" she asked, still drunk. "Yes?" he asked. "I'm tired of being drunk and being mean to people." She said, as if a little child. "It'll be okay." Inuyasha comforted. "I'm sorry." She said, burying her face into his warm chest. "It's okay Kagome." He told her. "Do you think if I said I was sorry to Yurokia, she'd be my friend again?" She asked. Inuyasha only stayed silent at that question. But as he was about to answer, he felt Kagome's breath go steady and her body go limp in his arms again, getting him off the hook.
Inuyasha walked into his living room and laid Kagome on the couch with him. He then wrapped his arms around her and pulled her in close. And as he slept into sleep he said quietly into her ear, "I love you."
Hey! I know what your thinking. Kagome drunk? No way in hell! But remember, she was like this badass leader of a gang before she met Inuyasha and the gang. And I think In the next chapter, I'll bring Naraku into the mix! Yay! More trouble for our messed up teens! Okay, well, Laterz!
