Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, but I own my story!
"I told you not to touch or come near her, wolf." Sesshoumaru muttered under his breath. Koga growled and jumped back, as Sesshoumaru put his arm down.
"She isn't yours! I have first dibs, since that worthless half-breed died from that pathetic dead miko." Koga smirked, and Kagome shivered. She didn't like how he was looking at her, and didn't want to know what he was thinking about doing to her. Sesshoumaru saw her fear, and looked back at him.
"Come, wolf, and meet your inevitable fate." Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru, and was trying to comprehend his words. Was he going to kill him? Just as she thought that, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Koga running towards her. She stepped back, and tried to dodge his path. She closed her eyes and waited for him to scoop her up and capture her.
But she didn't feel anything. Instead, she opened her eyes and saw Sesshoumaru holding him back with no problem whatsoever. Koga was growling, as Sesshoumaru just held him back with ease.
"Sesshoumaru! Let me go and let me have her!" Sesshoumaru glanced down at him, and growled. Touch her wolf, and you will not see daylight.
"She is not your property. She is no one's property." She nodded, and smiled. Does he care about me, or is he trying to look superior? He cares. That's all there is to it! She took a step forward and they both stopped growling at each other.
"Kagome, tell this dog to let me take you! He knows that you are my mate!" She hung her head, and shook it. Sesshoumaru let him go, and watched Koga grab onto her. Sesshoumaru growled under his breath, and his eyes flashed red numerous times.
"Let her go." Koga turned around while having Kagome over his shoulder. He looked at him, and saw his eyes red, and his fangs showing. Koga smirked, and set Kagome down.
"Leave us in peace, and I'll let you—" He was cut off as Sesshoumaru dashed up to him and pierced Koga's chest with his claws. Koga felt the impact, and Sesshoumaru took out his claws. He bent down, and covered the wound that was bleeding, while coughing up blood.
Sesshoumaru took out the Tokijin and aimed it at Koga. He kept growling towards him, and Koga stared at him. "Go ahead! Kill me! Once I die, you'll kill Kagome, and I'll be with her in the afterlife!" She took another step forward, and knelt down beside him.
"Koga, I'm sorry. Sesshoumaru, he won't kill me. But he'll kill you. I know we will meet again another day, but please. I don't love you. I never have, and I never will. Rest in peace." She whispered in his ear. He widened his eyes, looked at her in shock, then looked back up at Sesshoumaru. She stood up and backed away from him.
Sesshoumaru swiped the Tokijin down onto Koga, as he disintegrated into ashes. Pathetic wolf. He put the sword away, and smelled salt. He turned around and saw Kagome, knelt down, where the ashes used to lie, crying, letting the tears hit his floor.
He walked up to her, and knelt down. She still cried for the dead wolf, and couldn't just let him go. He was still a good friend. "Do not cry." She looked at him, and shook her head. How couldn't she cry?
She looked back to the ground, and wiped some of the tears away. "I can't stop. He was too good of a friend to just let go." He still looked at her, as if trying to get her to stop that annoying cry. But he knew he couldn't. He knew that wolf was a dear friend to her.
He kept staring at her, watching the tears fall onto the floor, watching them stream down her face even. "Let him rest. Do not let the pain consume you." She nodded, and wiped most of the tears away. She smiled, but still had sadness in her eyes. Comfort her? More like hug her and never let her go, comfort her. Hmph.
He tugged on her sleeve, and she looked up. She saw his pair of golden eyes watch her, trying to make her happy again. She wanted to be happy, and she was content being by him. I shouldn't put Sesshoumaru like this… You do know what is next… Huh? Just then, she felt his arms wrap around her.
She tightened up in his embrace, and held her gasp inside of her. She felt him hold her tighter, and not letting her try to run away. But why would she run away? She began to become calm into his embrace, and soon, her arms went around him as well.
He closed his eyes, and took in the scent of her. She smelt like the cherry blossoms during the summer time, the leaves falling off the trees in the fall, the flowers blooming during the spring, and the ice forming all around in the winter. He knew it. He knew that she was an angel that fell from the heavens.
"Never again." She heard those words come out from his mouth. Never again? What did he mean by that? Was something not to come near him again, or something else? He continued. "Never again will this Sesshoumaru put you in harm's way."
She let out a small gasp, and held onto him tighter. She felt tears fall down her face, and hit his clothing. She saw his long, elegant, silver hair flow towards the window, and she smiled. She ran her fingers through his hair, and he ran his through hers.
How could one man, human or demon, resist this angel? Her beautiful eyes, hair, smile… There was nothing on this girl that wasn't beautiful. It was as if she were perfect to be with him.
But how would others take it? How would other demons see him in this light? He knew for sure that they would think that he had become very weak, and couldn't fight anymore. He knew that was wrong, but he also was aware of those thoughts creeping into their minds.
She backed away from him, and looked to the ground, blushing, and trying to remember the memory of that. She knew she enjoyed it, and he did as well, but did he really love her like that? Or was this all a show in order to only help her? But when has Sesshoumaru helped any human being, besides Rin?
She sighed, and kept looking at the floor, seeing her knees pretty wet from her tears. She brought her hand to her right knee, and began to wipe away the wet spots from her knee. While wiping them away, she felt his hand on hers. She blinked a couple of times, and smiled.
She stopped wiping the wet spots away and grasped a couple of his fingers, causing him to look down on his hands. He smiled inside, and held onto her hand with her. He did a quick sigh, looked down at her, and saw her admiring his hand, and loving to hold it.
All he wanted to do tonight was to be with her, and to love her. He wanted to tell her his feelings. He really wanted to. But he did like being together, just like this. But he didn't like the draft that was coming through his broken window. But he got an idea.
He grabbed her hand, and stood up. She tilted her head upward, and was brought to her feet. He turned around, and practically dragged her as he dashed towards the balcony. He stopped right at the railing, and she clung onto his arm. "Do not fear the speed of this Sesshoumaru." I don't think that is possible!
"I'll keep that in…" She looked from behind and saw the moonlight shine down on his face, showing the beauty behind his mask. His elegant silver hair became more silver, and the wind blew towards them, almost giving her a sign to say that he was her guardian angel. "This is gorgeous." She kept looking at him, rather than her surroundings.
He looked over and stared into her lovely brown eyes. He didn't want to look away, as her eyes resembled something bigger than happiness. She certainly didn't want to look away, for his eyes were like the sun shining in her life.
She quickly looked away and glanced up at the moon. It looked so peaceful, and she could fly away and head towards it to discover more of it's beauty. But of course, she didn't want to leave.
Sesshoumaru, however, took the opportunity in front of him. He didn't want to pass up this much in one night, and certainly didn't want her to leave empty-handed. He placed a finger below her chin, and slightly pushed up a little for him to finally do what he wanted. He walked up to her, face to face, although her eyes were closed, and she didn't know what was going on.
But she suddenly felt his warm, soothing breath coming from him, and it was really close. When she finally fluttered her eyes open, she discovered something tonight that he told her in no words.
He placed his lips over hers, passionately kissing her as she kissed him back, finding love on the night of a new moon. In her mind, Inuyasha was all a thing of the past.
Okay! And that is the end of that chapter! I think the next chapter will be the end, and I'll make it so that it is sent into the future, so it is like an Epilogue! I hope you loved, or adored, or whatever you want to call it, chapter, and I'll see you soon for the next, and maybe final, chapter! Ja ne!
