Disclaimer: I do not own or claim to own Inuyasha or it's characters. Tsuruko (pronounced Sue-RUE-co), Seiki (pronounced SEE-Kee), and Tigonshi(tee-GON-she) are characters I created. I dont know if they are from the show or from anything else. I thought them up, so if they are from the show or anything else, they're still mine... :)
Chapter 7: Kagome's Kidnap, Rescue, and Discovery
Back through the well...again (as if you didnt know). Inuyasha woke up before Kagome again. And went outside, through the window, for a minute. When he heard Kagome wake up, he hopped back inside through the window. He lifted her up in his arms, and asked, "Hungry?"
"Mmm hmm," she said sleepily. He carried her downstairs and sat down in what Kagome called a "chair." Kagome was sitting on his lap, at the table. when the rest of her family came down, Inuyasha and her were snuggling together, very content. When everyone was downstairs, breakfast started, Kagome still on Inuyasha's lap. Inuyasha didnt eat, he just sat there holding Kagome, since demons dont need to eat as frequently as humans. Inuyasha stroked her hair, while she ate.
When she was finished Inuyasha asked "you ready to go?"
"Yup," Kagome said. So he lifted her up again, and carried her out the door, and down to the park near her house. He put her down and she held his arm and leaned onto it while they walked, of course whenever they are out in public, Inuyasha has his claws retracted, and also has his ears flat against his head, so he wont draw attention. They just walked for a while, then since Kagome's legs were getting tired, Inuyasha picked her up, and leaped into a tree, where he laid down, and put her down in front of him. She scooted back, right up against Inuyasha, and rested there with her eyes closed. Inuyasha put his arms around her and gave her a little hug, as a small smile spread across her face. He heard her breathing slow and knew she had fallen asleep. He perked his ears back up, but kept his claws in so he wouldn't hurt Kagome. Inuyasha kept his ears perked up, and closed his eyes, he was very alert, but wanted a little rest. Everytime Kagome moved a little, he would open his eyes, look at her to make sure she was ok, then looked around to check for anyone, then close his eyes again. He wouldn't let anyone sneak up on them. He wouldn't let ANYONE touch Kagome. If anyone tried to hurt her, he'd Flare his ears up, and extend his claws as far as they would go, and try to scare them. If that didnt work he would have to attack. A while ago Kagome showed Inuyasha something she called a "gun", and fired it to show him what it can do. If they had one of those "guns" he'd put her on his back, leap over their head put her somewhere safe, then leap at them while dodging the bullets, and slice the "gun" into pieces. Now of course Kagome knew this and felt safe when she was with him. After a while, Kagome opened her eyes again, and Inuyasha heard her heartbeat speed back up, signifying she had woken up, and waited for her to be fully awake. She yawned, and streched her arms, and she would have fallen off the tree branch the two of them were on, if Inuyasha hadn't caught her. She just said, "Thanks Inuyasha. You're always there when I need you."
"Ready to go?" he questioned.
"Sure," Kagome replied. So Inuyasha lifted her up, and hopped down from the tree.
When he landed on the ground, he flattened his ears to his head, and asked, "Where're we gonna go now, Kagome?"
"Ummm...How 'bout we just walk around in the city?" Kagome responded.
"Fine with me," Inuyasha said. Kagome hopped onto Inuyasha's back, and he leaped toward the city. When they got there, Kagome got off Inuyasha's back, and grabbed his hand. As they walked, Kagome started leaning onto Inuyasha's shoulder. While they were walking by an alley, a hand came flying out from the alley, and grabbed Kagome's arm, and pulled her in. "LET HER GO NOW!" screamed Inuyasha, leaping into the alley after them, he came up face to face with her kidnapper and three other people. Inuyasha growled, "Let her go now!"
"You're not in a position to tell us what to do," responded Kagome's kidnapper.
"I SAID LET HER GO!" Inuyasha snarled, Flared his ears up, and fully extended his claws.
"HOLY SHIT!" exclaimed the suprised kidnapper, pulling out a gun, as did his lackies. Inuyasha leaped straight at the kidnapper, slashed his left arm in which he was holding Kagome. Inuyasha then grabbed Kagome, and put her behind him and told her to run. Inuyasha pulled out Tetsaiga and leaped at her kidnapper when she had gotten around the corner, and slashed his gun into pieces, with sparks flying everywhere. He lunged at the three lackies, and slashed their guns as he went by. The kidnapper and his three lackies ran at Inuyasha trying to punch him, and the kidnapper took out a knife. Inuyasha knocked down all three lackies in one swipe, and when the kidnapper lunged at him with the knife, Inuyasha used his claws to slice straight through it, then gave him one good punch which sent him flying back into the brick wall behind him, leaving an indentation.
Then Inuyasha said, "I told you to let her go, if you had let her go you wouldn't have gotten into this mess," and started to walk away. One of the lackies pulled out a knife and threw it at Inuyasha, who spun around, grabbed the knife out of the air, and threw it back at the lacky. The knife stabbed into his foot. "Idiot," Inuyasha spat before walking away. He sniffed out Kagome and then he hopped to a nearby roof and sniffed again. When he caught her scent he jumped from rooftop to rooftop. When he found out where she was he leaped down from the roof and landed directly infront of her, which scared her for a second, but when she saw it was Inuyasha.
She hugged him while saying, "You saved me! Oh I love you so much. Wanna go home?"
"Sure," Inuyasha said, as he picked Kagome up, Bridal Style. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and hugged him tight. When they got back to Kagome's house, Inuyasha leaped to her window, and climbed inside, still carrying Kagome. He sat down on her bed, and held her tight, she started stroking his long, silky, silver hair, and worked her way up to the top of his head. When she got close to his ears, she felt him stiffen beneath her, but continued anyway. She rubbed the edge of his ear, as he instinctivly leaned into her touch.
"I thought you didn't like people to touch your ears," Kagome teased.
"Keh, I dont," Inuyasha replied.
"But you were just leaning towards my hand while I was rubbing your ear," she said back.
"That was just instinct," he growled at Kagome.
"Ok, OK, I am just teasing you. But why don't you want me to touch your ears?" Kagome questioned seriously.
"Because it's rude, and...for other reasons," as he looked down, his hands folded on his lap, trying to conceal his...eh hem...problem. 'why doesnt she understand yet?' Inuyasha asked himself. She followed his eyes to his hands folded in his lap, failing to cover his...problem..."OH,", said Kagome quickly, "OH, I'm sorry, I didn't know that happened when someone rubbed your ears."
"You're the only one that has happened for," Inuyasha said quietly, for being embaressed.
Kagome blushed deeply "Umm, I'm bored," she said right before rubbing his ears again, "You're not too busy are you?" she asked him sweetly.
Suprised but glad he said, "Ready when you are."
