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 15: Poor Tsuruko
Back with Inuyasha and Kagome. Inuyasha woke up before Kagome again, and just waited for her to wake up, he watched her sleep, she looked so peaceful. When she did wake up, he sat up and lifted her into his lap. "You awake now?" He asked her sweetly.
"Yeah, lemme stay like this for a minute so I can be fully awake, K?" she responded still half asleep.
"Ok Kagome, tell me when you're ready," he said back.
"Ok, I'm ready. I'm hungry, how about you?" she asked him after a couple minutes.
"Yeah, lets get dressed and go get something to eat," he said, she had just noticed that she didn't have anything on.(A/N: Guess what they did last night...)
"Yeah, good idea," she said, blushing a little. He put her down on the bed, and she got up and went over to get dressed, as did he. He finished first, then helped her get dressed. They went downstairs, and Kagome made Inuyasha some Ramen, and had some cereal with milk. They headed out again after eating, and walked around town for a while.(A/N: They are in Kagome's town, not the City.)
"I'd like to check up on Tsuruko, do you mind?" Inuyasha asked her. "Nope, don't mind, I'd like to see how he is too," Kagome said back. So they went to where they had seen Tsuruko, and they saw Tsuruko getting picked on, Inuyasha headed over to them with his ears flat, and his hands behind his back with his claws retracted.
"Hello Tsuruko, how have you been?" He asked.
"They've been picking on me again and again, and won't leave me alone," Tsuruko responded.
"I see, well I guess I will just have to teach them a lesson won't I now," he said with a small smile. He walked over to the kids that were picking on him, and he unsheathed Tetsuiga, and held it as a normal sword, then said, "I warned you not to pick on poor litte Tsuruko over there, now you will pay." With that the sword transformed, and the kids started running, Kagome knew he wouldn't actually hurt them, but they sure didn't know that. "Don't be picking on Tsuruko again or you will be VERY sorry!" he yelled to them. He walked back to Tsuruko, and told him, "Blow on this whistle if you need me, I will be able to hear it very far away," handing him a specialized dog whistle.
"Ok, I will. I never got your name though," Tsuruko said.
"I, am Inuyasha, just whistle if you need me," he said leaping back to Kagome.
"Lets head home, I'm getting hungry. Ok?" she said to him.
"Sure, I'm a little hungry too," he said back. (A/N: Didn't they just eat?...eh oh well...) They walked home, the same way they had walked before. When they got home, Kagome made him some more Ramen for him and herself, as their lunch. After they finished, they just stayed in the house, and Kagome watched the TV and Inuyasha did too but didnt understand it, so he just held her close.
