Chapter 11

Last Time: Shigure, the dog from before, has announced that he will be Kagome's servant.

Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore. He got in between Kagome and Shigure. "And just what the hell do you mean by that?" Inuyasha asked growled, he was trying to keep calm. "I mean no harm to anyone that are friends with Lady Kagome. I am now her loyal servant. A knight you could say." Shigure responded calmly. Inuyasha, yea he's still growling. Before Inuyasha lost it, Miroku said, "I'm sorry to say this, but that job is already taken." " Yeah by me." Inuyasha said. "This is great news! We can both protect Lady Kagome from any danger!" Shigure said with his "famous" smile. "I'm not sure if that's what Miroku and Inuyasha ment." Sango said with a nervous smile and a sweat drop behind her head. "Do I have to say it? GET LOST." Inuyasha said. "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled. "Sit." Inuyasha once again fell face first to the ground. "I'm sorry but you have to excuse Inuyasha, for being SO RUDE, but he's right. Inuyasha has done a good job at protecting me." Kagome said calmly. "Yea-so-get-lost" Inuyasha mumbled in the dirt. "It seems you two are very fond of each other. Am I right?" Shigure said. By this time the sit spell wore off, Inuyasha stood straight up. Inuyasha and Kagome both yelled at the same time, "WHAT! ME FOND OF HER/HIM?" They both blushed. "I have no interest in Kagome, but only for her safety. I do not wish to have any relationships besides friendship. I am just a loyal servant." Shigure said calmly. "Please don't call yourself a servant." Kagome said. "It is the rule of a youkai. If a youkai is injured and is on the verge of death, and another youkai or human saves his or her life, they shall become the servant of the savior." Shigure said. –ok um I just made that up so… yea-

"I do not wish to offend you, but I see you are both a youkai and human. That does not matter. I am still your servant." Shigure said again. "Well um I do not want to um "disgrace" this demon ruling but, I don't really think its necessary for you to become my servant. Oh I know! How's about this. You can become my friend and join up with us. That way you can still um have the job to protect me if you wish. I just don't want any one to be a um "slave." Kagome said nervously. "Very well. It is an honor to serve I mean, it is an honor to be your friend Lady Kagome." Shigure said as he bowed his head in front of Kagome. "Oh please! No need for you to call me Lady Kagome. Just call me Kagome." Kagome said, she had a sweat drop behind her head as she nervously smiled at him. She bowed her head too. "Hey! Who gave you permission to let him join our group?" Inuyasha said. Oh by the way he moved away from between the two and now he's standing next to Miroku and Sango. "Inuyasha. Sit." –we all know what happens. Honey I'm back! Hehe it's a joke. Some of you might get what I'm saying- "Inuyasha why do you have to be so rude? So what he's joining our group. Is that such a big deal?" Kagome said as she narrowed her eyes at Inuyasha ,who was still on the ground. He shot back up and said, "Keh. Another mouth to feed." Inuyasha said as he looked away. Kagome shook her head. "Please excuse Inuyasha. I'm sorry for his um, RUDE, behavior. It's just that, Naraku is still in hiding and we can't really trust any strangers right now." Kagome said. "Oh I heard of Naraku." Shigure said. "You have?" Everyone said in union. "Yes. I believe he is, shall I say, very evil. And the rumor must be true. He has most of the jewel completed, yes?" Shigure said. "Yes its ture. He is very evil. He has his minions to do the jobs for him. One of his minions is… my brother Kohaku…" Sango said as she suddenly became sad. Shigure, being the demon he is, sensed her sadness. "Oh I'm sorry miss. I did not mean to say anything that made you sad." Shigure said with an apologetic look on his face. "NO its fine." Sango said bringing a sad smile on her face. "He has also been a problem to my family as well. He has put a curse on my hand. Its been going on for generations. This curse is more of a air void. It sucks up anything. And in time, if Naraku is not killed, I will eventually be sucked in this air void curse just like my father." Miroku said. He too became sad. "Gomen. I guess all I did was bring sadness upon this group. Heh not a good first impression." Shigure said adding a nervous/sad laugh. He also had a sweat drop on the back of his head. "No its not your fault…really." Sango and Miroku said at the same time. "Keh. Nice going." Inuyasha said looking out in the horizon. He was back up on his tree branch. "Inuyasha. Sit." Kagome said. The tree branch snapped off and Inuyasha fell to the ground from a 12 feet high height.-ouch- The spell wore off. "Why do you keep doing that!" Inuyasha yelled, while his eyes were twitching. Kagome just ignored him. "Oh. I'm sorry for not introducing myself. I am Miroku. Its nice to meet you." Miroku said bringing his hand out for a hand shake. Shigure accepted the hand shake. "Oh and my name is Sango. And same here, nice to meet you. Oh and this is my cat demon companion, Kirara." Sango said as she pointed to Kirara. Kirara transformed back to her kitty self and mewed. "It is a pleasure to meet you all. –bows head- Oh and please accept my apologizes for being so rude earlier, when I was in my true form I growled at you. I was not myself back there." Shigure said. "No need for your apologizes." Miroku said. "Alright enough talking. So you gained my friends trust, but that doesn't mean I'll trust you." Inuyasha said. He was walking ahead in a slow pace.

Everyone else shook their heads while Shigure just had a sweat drop behind his head. So after a quick packing up, the group headed off. Inuyasha was in the lead, followed by Kagome and Shigure, then Miroku Sango Shippo, and Kirara behind them. Shigure whispered in one of Kagome's dog ears, "Is he always like this? I mean if I am causing anyone's discomfort I don't mean to. Honest." "Don't worry. He's always like this." Kagome whispered back. This whole time Inuyasha's ears were twitching. "Hey just what are you two talking about?" Inuyasha said with narrowed eyes staring at them. "Huh? What do you mean?" both Kagome and Shigure said at the same time. Inuyasha growled and turned around walking further ahead. Kagome and Shigure both sighed.

Suddenly they heard a roar from far away. The group decided to follow the noise. They were out of the forest and into another clearing. They saw a demon that was huge. At least 10 feet tall, had bushy long green hair, his whole skin color was yucky dark green color, red eyes, big hands and long claws, wearing some fur to cover his um you know what, and had a big horn on the top of his head, oh right he was ugly but had muscles everywhere on his body, also had a strange blue sign just below his horn. Sango immediately recognized the sign and said, "Everyone watch out! He's one of the mind eraser demon breeds." Just as Sango finished saying this the demon lunged his big clawed hands at the group Everyone jumped out of the way except for Kagome who just went, "Huh?" "Kagome!" Everyone yelled. The demon had Kagome in a death grip, by her head! The demon lifted Kagome. Kagome's legs were dangling in the air while both her arms and hands were gripping on the demon's arm trying to get free. "Basturd!" Inuyasha yelled and unsheathed his Tetsusaiga. Sango attacked first. "Hiraikotsu!" The boomerang went towards the demon's back. His back spiked. The hiraikotsu bounced off and hit Sango causing her to hit her back on a tree with a lot of force. She became unconscious. "Sango!" Miroku yelled. Ok now Miroku was pissed. Miroku couldn't use his wind tunnel so he threw his sutras. The sutra's were on the demon's spiked back. There was blue light that came out of the sutras, but it didn't phase the demon at all. "Wind Scar!" Inuyasha yelled. The demon turned around so that attack would hit it's back. The wind scar hit his back but the demon didn't die. There wasn't even a scratch on its back. "It seems his back is a defense mechanism. So its likely that attacks can't penetrate its back." Miroku said. "No really?" Inuyasha said angrly. Kagome was still trying to struggle out of the demon's grip. She couldn't breathe. She was suffocating. She became dizzy too as her arms were now dangling in the air as well. "Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled. "There must be a way to save her." Miroku said with an unconscious Sango in his arms. He figured out that if wind scar didn't work then why bother with his staff? His sutras didn't even work. The demon faced them and roared. The blue sign on it's head glowed. His hand that held Kagome's head glowed as well. Suddenly the blue light on his hand looked like blue electricity. Everyone watched in horror at what was happening. Also they could hear Kagome's muffled scream. Shigure launched a poison whip attack that sliced off the demon's hand that held Kagome. The demon roared in pain. He caught Kagome in his arms and quickly got out of the way. He signaled Inuyasha to attack. Inuyasha nodded then yelled, "Die! Wind Scar!" The wind scar hit the demon in his front side, and the demon was disappeared in the yellow lights of the wind scar. The wind scar disappeared too. All the group saw were ashes from the remains of the demon. The wind blew it away. Shigure approached the group with Kagome in his arms. Inuyasha quickly got Kagome out of Shigure's arms and into his. He whispered, "Kagome…"as he stared at Kagome's unconscious face. Kagome wasn't injured at all. There weren't even scratches on her face. "We need to make camp so that they can rest." Miroku said. Everyone nodded. By the way, Shigure was hold Sango's hiraikotsu which was a bit heavy, even if he was demon. It was night, and the group settled in an abandon hut. The guys gathered some firewood and made a fire to light up the hut a bit. Shippo was next to Kagome sleeping because he cryed himself to sleep. Kagome and Sango were still unconscious. The guys were on the opposite side of the girls. Inuyasha and Miroku kept an eye on their "woman" while Shigure kept watch outside the hut. Sango moaned and woke up. Miroku rushed to her side. Sango was now sitting up saying, "What happened? Where are we?" "Do not worry sango. We're safe now. Why don't you get some sleep. You need your rest." Miroku said gently. Sango nodded and went back to sleep. Miroku was next to Sango. His back against the wall. He too drifted to sleep. Inuyasha was still awake. Damn it! I couldn't protect Kagome today. You better be ok tomorrow Kagome… Inuyasha thought. Shigure came inside the hut and sat down next to Inuyasha. Though he sat a few feet away from Inuyasha. "I hope she'll be ok." Shigure said. He too went to sleep. Inuyasha just looked at him. Then he stared at the ceiling. He soon drifted to sleep.

The next morning, everyone was up. They kept a close watch on Kagome. Kagome was still sleeping. Everyone stared at her. Kagome began to stir and moaned. She slowly opened her eyes. "Kagome!" Everyone said at the same time. She slowly sat up. She rubbed her eyes. She stared at them with big eyes. She kept blinking. Something changed about her eyes. It looked more, well full of life and more "child like." Now she looked confused. "Who's Kagome? And who are you people?" Kagome said while tilting her head to the side, still blinking. Everyone had same expression on their faces. SHOCK.
