Chapter 4: Inuyasha
He was gone.
"Inuyasha," Kagome said. That name… it sounded so familiar. She knew she had heard it before. But… that didn't matter now. She never had felt this way in any other man's touch.
He had gone as quickly as he had come, and it left Kagome feeling dizzy and breathless. How did he make her feel this way when this was the first time they had met? It truly seemed like love at first sight.
Where had he gone? Kagome had finally come out of her drunken state. She knew that he couldn't have been some hallucination, she had felt his arms around her… and his lips.
Kagome blushed deeply. She had just kissed a guy she had never met before! Mentally slapping herself she began to look for him, knowing that he couldn't have gone far. She turned off the record player and picked up her flashlight. Kagome noticed that she had her old clothes on, not the lavish dress that she had been wearing.

Kagome had been searching for an hour straight, and she was beginning to fall asleep standing. She needed to go back to the foyer and get her sleeping bag to settle down for the night. But the foyer seemed so far away…
She yawned, "I'm so tired,"
Kagome…
"Yes?" she answered drowsily.
Kagome…
"Inuyasha?" she asked the voice, hopefully.
Kagome…
She followed the voice.
Kagome…The voice seemed to hypnotize her as she continued to follow its sound. But it finally stopped when she came to face a certain door. She opened the door, sleepily, and saw a most wondrous sight: a beautiful, soft cushy bed.
Her feet padded heavily on the carpet as she made her way towards the bed. She was so tired…she needed to sleep…
Kagome slumped onto the welcoming comforter, and barley had enough energy to pull down to covers. The sheets enveloped her body, and she almost immediately fell asleep, but not before saying,
"Goodnight, Inuyasha," hoping he could hear her.
Unknown to her, his golden eyes could see her sleeping form. He came to her and lightly tucked the covers around her. He bent down and kissed her cheek, and Kagome unconsciously leaned toward him as he pulled away.
Goodnight, Kagome. Soon, we can be together.

Kagome awoke to darkness. She wondered why that was, because she thought that by now the morning light had begun to shine through the windows- but then realized that there were no windows. It seemed like she had only been asleep for two minutes, considering the amount of light in the room, but she knew that she had slept a long time.
Her body protested to being pulled from the warm comforting bed, but Kagome ignored this as she stood and stretched her stiff muscles. She thought it funny, that the day before yesterday she could hardly stand walking by the house, let alone sleep there, but the events of last night had changed her mind. And it was in that moment, stepping outside the bedroom door that she realized she had never feared this house, but she feared that its inhabitants would not except her. The thought confused her thoroughly: how could she have known before yesterday that anyone had lived here? But at the same time, it all made some sort of strange sense…
She shook her head. If she kept thinking about it too much, her head was likely to explode.
It was much lighter in the hallway, Kagome noticed that the oil lamps were lit, but they had be dark when she thought to last night. She suddenly smiled. Inuyasha was so thoughtful…
She couldn't take her mind off him. He was that mysterious, handsome boy that had held her last night, had danced with her…
Kagome walked down the stairs and found herself in the foyer. Her stomach growled. I guess I can't have junk food for breakfast, she thought. She walked over to her backpack and sat down by it, waiting for her friends to come and pick her up.

Sango was the first to waken from her dreamy state. She was glad that she had backed bagels last night, because she knew that they would all be ill from the abundance of junk food they had devoured. She pulled them from her over night bag and gathered some dry wood for a fire to toast the doughnut-shaped bread.
Just as Sango had ignited the pile of dry sticks under the bagels, Ayame and Koga began to stretch and groan, their faces twinged with a very pale green.
"Good morning!" Sango stated cheerfully.
"There is nothing 'good' about this morning," Ayame mumbled.
"I ate too much," Koga said, holding his stomach.
"No, really Koga? When did you figure that, after the 6th or 7th bag of marshmallows?" Ayame replied, sarcastically.
Sango giggled at her friends' early morning arguments. "Breakfast is served," she called out, buttering the last piece of bread. "I'll go wake up Miroku," Sango walked towards the last sleeping member of the group.
She reached a hand out to him, about to shake him awake, when he mumbled, "Sango…"
'Is he dreaming about me?' she blushed as she moved closer to see if he was indeed asleep. But then a familiar feeling didn't go unnoticed on her backside…
"PERVERT!" she slapped him across the face. "You were awake all along, you hormone-crazed henti!" her eyebrows twitched.
Ayame and Koga watched in mild interest as they continued to munch on their breakfast.
"I'm surprised that his brain can still function, due to all the brain damage he's accumulated from those wacks from Sango," Ayame shook her head.
"I know what you mean. Will he ever learn?" Koga said ruefully.
"Hey, we should probably get Kagome, I bet she didn't sleep a wink last night." Sango said, worried. She felt kind of bad after the look that Kagome had shot her before she went into the house. It had even prodded into Sango's dreams.
"Yeah let's go pick her up." Koga stood up. He and Ayame had finished their bagels, will watching Sango beat Miroku for the first time that day. And it wasn't even noon. Couldn't Miroku give her break?
After Miroku had wolfed down his breakfast, the gang set off to save Kagome… or would they?

Kagome heard the noisy Iron Gate creek open, a sure signal that either her friends were there to 'rescue' her, or the cops had been called because she had caused a disturbance
'Oh, yeah that would look wonderful on college applications, 'spent day in jail for breaking an entering',' she giggled to herself. She highly doubted that the music that had been playing wasn't that loud.
Footsteps echoed from the porch and the doorknob turned. It was pushed forward and there appeared Sango, Miroku (massaging a painful bump on his head), Kouga, and Ayame.
"We're here to rescue you Kagome!" called out Ayame.
"Kagome!" Sango yelled.
"Right here, guys," Kagome said from the right corner of the foyer.
"Where is she?" asked Koga.
"Maybe she fled back to her house," suggested Miroku.
"Oh, come on guys, stop foolin' around, I'm right here," Kagome stood up and waved her arms. "Yoo-hoo!"
"Yeah, that's probably where she is," said Sango. "Let's go over to her house."
"Okay, now you guys are just being plain stupid," Kagome's eyebrow twitched. "The gig is up,"
They all started to walk out of the house, and Kagome rolled her eyes at her friends. She picked up her bag and started to follow them out.
But then something weird happened.
Just as Kagome was stepping out of the house, something forced her back inside and the door slammed.
Kagome rubbed her sore butt and got to her feet.
'What the hell just happened?'
