Chapter Eight: On Ward For A New Journey

Kagome sat in Inuyasha lap, watching the sunset in the distance. When she arrived back, she stayed with Inuyasha for the rest of the day.

Inuyasha had his chin rested on her chin, breathing softly and slowly. She cuddled closed to his chest, resting her cheek on the rough haori. She felt his grip tighten barely, as she closed her eyes.

Inuyasha was now asleep, enjoying the scent of Kagome close to him and the sounds of her low breathing. She was now asleep in his arms, wrapping her arms around his waist. The sky grew dark on the two lovers, with the only light of the crescent moon and low light stars.

Miroku blew out a candle flame, stretching as he looked around the hut. Shippo was with Kaede, sleeping there for the night. Sango was in the corner of the hut, fixing a futon. She stretched, feeling the present of his stare. She turned her face, raising an eyebrow.

"What?" she asked, putting her hands in her lap. She saw him shake his head, as he began to walk towards her. He kneeled in front of her and smiled.

"Nothing, just staring at your beauty," he said, putting a finger under her chin. She blushed slightly, and smiled.

"That is the cheese-ish thing you have pretty much said," she said. He chuckled slightly, leaning in. His lips touched hers, as a kiss came about. Sango placed her hand on his cheek, bring him closer with her other arm around his neck. He deepened it, making her moan to his touch of passion.

He released, looking down into her brown eyes. She smiled, letting her fingers twirl in his hair, felling the summer sweat on his forehead. He smiled back, kissing her again.

He now had her underneath him, as he kissed her deeply. She arched to him, his arms around her waist. She moaned as he ran his hands on her hot stomach. He smiled on her lips, licking the bottom one of hers for entrance. She opened her mouth on his, feeling his tongue exploded her mouth. Tonight was theirs and it was going to be fun….

Kagome opened her eyes slowly, blinking at the site in front of her. She was now surrounded by wooden walls and the smell of food was close. She rolled over, seeing barely Kaede and Shippo with her tired eyes. When the tiredness went away, She saw steam from a pot, and Shippo coloring.

Kagome sat up slowly, stretching her arms up in the air. She rubbed her eyes, feeling a weight on her lap. She looked down at the weight with one eyes closed and the other opened.

"Morning Kagome and I'm glad you're back!" said Shippo, cheery. Kagome smiled and patted his head.

"Morning Shippo," she looked around the hut again, "Where's Inuyasha?"

"Inuyasha should be back. He went out for a bit," said Kaede, cutting up food. She smiled at Kagome.

Kagome nodded before standing up, surprising Shippo. She began to walk towards the door, grabbing her sandals. She then left the hut, which made Shippo shocked.

"Where is Kagome going?" asked Shippo, looking at Kaede. Kaede chuckled.

"Love does come first," said Kaede, bring confusing to Shippo's mind.

Kagome walked on, viewing the rims of the forest. She let out a sigh, stopping in her tracks. She murmured something, thinking up stuff.

Then arms snaked around her waist, bring her into the trees. She jumped at first in surprised but relaxed at the touch. Inuyasha twirled her around to face him, frowning slightly.

"What are you doing walking alone?" he asked, resting his arms on her shoulders. She pouted, crossing her arms over her chest.

"I can do what ever I please and I was looking for you," she said

"Feh, I was coming back," he said, "Didn't Kaede tell you?"

"Barely, but I would have come anyways,"

"…Why?"

"Oh Inuyasha you are such an idiot,"

"Hey!"

"I came cause I wanted to and to give you a morning kiss, but it looks like you don't want one,"

Kagome grinned as she twisted her way out of his hold. She felt a hand grip her upper arm, twirling her back around. She rested a hand on his chest, feeling his heart beat beneath the haori. Inuyasha leaned in.

"I could always use a morning kiss," he said, smiling. Kagome smiled too, wrapping her arms around his neck, bring him down as she deeply kissed his lips. A couple of seconds later, Inuyasha got tired of her taking over the kiss that he deeply kissed her. She moaned softly, blushing that she did.
He licked her lower lip, feeling her open her mouth to him. His tongue exploded her mouth, running over her teeth and touching her own tongue softly.

She released, breathing for air. His arms wrapped around her waist, holding her close.

"So, why did you leave this morning?" she asked

"I heard some news that there was a demon trouble nearby that might be an after effect of Naraku's death," he said

"Ah, so when do we leave?"

"Soon I hope,"

"Good,"
Kagome kissed his lips softly, then his nose. She grabbed his hand before he good react, walking towards the village.

Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kagome, Kilala, and Inuyasha began their journey towards the next three villages, after they ate breakfast and stuff.

Sango looked out over the horizon, blinking. After couple of hours, her eyes tired out.

She pointed outwards, taking a deep breath.

"Inuyasha, is that where the demon was attacking?" she asked, looking behind her. Inuyasha sniffed the air, then Feh.

"Yeah, but it looks like the demon isn't here," he said, turning his head slightly. Miroku sighed.

"How bout we set camp here for tonight. Maybe the demon will be here tomorrow or even tonight," he said

"Fine by me," said Inuyasha. Inuyasha flopped on the ground, crossing his arms in his haori. Kagome shook her head, sitting beside him.

"That's a great idea Miroku. I wonder where a river is?" she asked, looking around.

Inuyasha grabbed her suddenly, surprising her. She clinged to his haori, looking back. Sango and Miroku had jumped, along with Kilala and Shippo. They were armed and ready.

"Foolish brings. I will take the maiden with the Shikon Jewel," said a raspy voice.

"To hell you will!" shouted Inuyasha, pulling out the Tetsusaiga, "Come out and show yourself!"
"Heh…So be it," the raspy said, laughing to his words. Kagome watched as the trees moved, revealing a tall, fat dark demon. She felt Inuyasha's grip on her tighten and his hand on his Tetsusaiga done so as well.

"Prepare to die," said Inuyasha

A battle began…
