A/N: It's just the first chapter but let me know if you think I should throw Sesshomaru, Ryura, or Miroku into the possible lover of Alethea.
p.s I do not own Inuyasha that would be Rumiko Takahashi.
"Kagome, the fleabag is here to see you."
The female stared at out into the forest with no interest in the conflict that the two canines would start any minute. The wolf demon stood above the females on a tree branch; an attractive full blooded demon with rich, tawny skin and the color of the deepest ebony, eyes the palest sky blue you would ever see but still those sky blue orbs held arrogance and wickedness. Big and bad had arrived in one big hairy, cocky package. Stupid fleabag. Within seconds, Koga the wolf demon had their priestess's hands entwined with his own.
Sango, the groups demon slayer sat between Kagome and Alethea so that water sprite wouldn't give into temptation and beat the wolf with a branch until he passed onto the next world, Hades, the water sprite's uncle would have plenty of entertainment with a male such as Koga. "Oh Alethea, you know how he gets by now I still don't understand why you get so irritated with Koga...unless you have secret feelings for him?" The sly demon slayer asked with a mocking smirk.
She just rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. Not even in five thousand years would Alethea ever have any kind of feelings for the flea bitten idiot!
"Never."
"Alethea, it's been five months all you ever do is glare, insult, or give Koga death threats especially if he crosses a certain point with Kagome. Are you sure there isn't more to it then being 'protective' of Kagome?" Sango wiggled her eyebrows.
"No." A pulse of energy bounced off Koga into Alethea's own power source. That was another reason she highly disliked the wolf his power always reacted around hers.
The male wolf demon was adorning wolf pelts and armor but even in his barbaric wardrobe the canine was handsome but it didn't change her true feelings of him: Koga was a loathsome demon just like Sesshomaru who needed to be perished. At last the half-dog demon started to latch out at Koga it would only be a matter of minutes before their priestess, Kagome told the half-demon, Inuyasha to sit.
"Kagome doesn't want some dirty mangy wolf like you anyway!"
"Shut up! Don't talk about my woman as if you even had an inkling of what she wants. If you did you'd know how much it hurts her to see you run off with some dead woman and Kagome has a full, warm beating heart. Whats wrong with you, mutt?!"
"Fuck you!" Inuyasha shouted he withdrew his Tessaiga but as the water sprite guessed the priestess was quick to stop him
"Sit boy!"
A loud crash with a layer of dust in the air. Oh how Alethea wished she had those enchanted beads for Koga.
Sango blew one of her dark bangs out of her face with a litling smile the demon slayer snuggled closer into Alethea with Kirara, their two tailed demon cat on top of Alethea's head while it was true the water sprite usually detested full demons but was usually the males ones. Their arrogance held no bounds if they were to find out that Alethea was actually a deity they would flip but Kirara and Shippo were two demons she could never hate. Heck, she truly didn't even hate Koga but the male had a way of getting under her skin like no other has before.
"Alethea can I snuggle with you guys too?" Came the soft voice of Shippo.
Again she could never hate this little guy. How could you?
"Of course," Opening her arms out the chestnut haired boy nuzzled into Alethea's thick, billowing indigo colored hair. "Your always welcome with me, Shippo."
It was already dusk and with the loss of the sun of the night of course the mortals and children would tire out fast. Heck, Miroku their perverted, lecherous monk had been napping for the last two hours.
At some point, the half-demon Inuyasha had left their camp for almost everything had gone quiet with everyone sleeping or gone. Kagome wasn't in her sleeping bag so the water sprite assumed that the priestess had gone off after the mutt. Alethea just hoped to the gods that Inuyasha didn't have a meet and greet with the dead priestess, Kikyo while she loved Kagome like a little sister the blue haired female didn't feel like dealing with anymore drama for the night or even tomorrow. The only reason that she had even agreed to travel with Kagome's odd group was because the reincarnation was the guardian of the Jewel of Four Souls and with that bit of information once the jewel was assembled all into one jewel again the water sprite would swoop in and steal the jewel so she could have her spot back at court.
After the water sprite had been exiled from the sea, rivers, brooks, swamps, etc...well the jewel was her own way back into her father's heart.
Without even noticing that the wolf demon was still there once again in his tree branch he watched over the blue haired woman. Alethea, a beautiful woman of quick lashes and a sharp tongue she was very hard for the wolf to figure out. She held incredible superhuman strength and fucking awesome water abilities with blue hair but still wore strange clothes from Kagome's time and claimed not to be a demoness...it just didn't all add up. Still even with all of that the female had proved her loyalty to Kagome over and over with all the rescues the blue haired woman had accompanied him on to save his woman, he found it incredibly attractive when a woman was not only loyal but took charge. It didn't matter though his heart lied with Kagome and if not with Kagome he had promised himself to Ayame besides Alethea hated his guts anyway.
Alethea's breath became more subtle when he noticed that her almond shaped, lilac colored orbs began to stop fluttering, she had fallen asleep with a human woman resting on her shoulder, a demon cat on her head, and a fox demon child practically in her hair but still seeing that innocent scene made him wonder what kind of pups him and Kagome would have they would be half-breeds but with Koga as the father they would be more feared then any full demon anyway.
Relaxing into the tree the dark haired wolf demon decided he would go find his underlings in the morning, then set off to find Naraku.
"Inuyasha would please come down from there and just talk to me for once."
"Beh! Just go find your fleabag lover." The silver haired half-demon laid on his side on a thick tree branch facing away from the priestess-in-training. While Kagome had improved a lot over the last few months it still didn't mean she was a full fledge priestess yet he was also tired of hearing everyone refer to her as Lady Kagome or the priestess, she was a priestess yet! Kikyo's training had taken her years to perfect before she could get the honorable title of priestess yes Kagome was her recainartion but it didn't mean she automatically became a priestess the girl can barely keep a barrier up for them. The half-demon knew he could be harsh when it came to Kagome but the mortal woman just didn't understand as long as Kikyo existed even if she was dead there was no future between him and the priestess-in-training.
Throwing their canteen of water back at the mortal woman, lightly scratching his ears the half-demon knew that Kagome was starting to get dehydrated and hopefully the stubborn thing would drink it and go to bed already. At the top of the tree through the pine branches shined a full silver moon, silver faded to ink black. No fangs or claws either. Damn.
He had forgotten tonight he would turn mortal. Fuck, at least they had enlisted Alethea by this time. No one knew what she was nor was she inclined to answer them but the female had proven her strength to him so he had had no qualms about the blue haired woman traveling with them.
"I know I'm not that useful but it's my mess to clean up so please bare with me a little longer," Kagome said, hope flourishing within her heart. "Alethea has been teaching me more and more about herbs to. Which ones that aren't poison, how to mix them, and even how to make antidotes for certain poisons not to mention our speed workouts to help me evade faster from direct hand to hand combat."
"That's good. Just-keep ait it Kagome. Now go get some rest. I'll take first watch."
Goosebumps covered her skin, ice-cold tears dripped down her face. "I know I will never be Kikyo but she's dead. She'll never truly be alive no matter how many souls she collects. She's...she's an abomination!" The blue-black haired girl wailed.
In the morning not only would Kagome regret those words but it was those words that had split the group in three directions.
A/N: Well that was my first story ever. I truly hope you enjoyed it and stay tuned for the adventures of Alethea and Koga.
~That's all folks :3
