Something like 'Without a Doubt' by XXemzyXX, or I think that's her name. And I really like this chapter! So that's about it, thanks and Happy Reading!
Summary- Kagome is kidnapped by the band of seven because of her power to sense the jewel shards. With Koga and Inuyasha searching for her, can she really fall in love?
Warnings- Language; Angst
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Kagome was so tired of walking. So were the others it seemed. Everyone except of course, Bankotsu. His mind was so wrapped up upon so many things.
Like, did Kagome hold a grudge to him for what he had done to her last night? He had both physically hurt her body, and mentally broken her spirit. How could he do that to someone he loved? Maybe he wasn't meant to be in love. Maybe he wasn't. He knew the feeling was there, but the actions weren't. Well, aside from their passionate kisses and the way she snuggled up to him when she was sad or confused. Surprisingly, He actually loved it when she did that. He had never been much of a touchy-feely kindove guy, especially with Jakotsu on the team, but when it came to Kagome, things were totally different. He wished he could touch her all the time. He wanted to feel the warmth of her body against his.
He had always had trouble controlling his temper. In fact, it surprised him that he hadn't killed the girl already. If anything, by accidentally being to rough with her. She was so delicate.
It was about lunch time when someone finally complained. And that person, of course, was Jakotsu. Usually it would have been Kagome, but her mind was wrapped up on a lot of things too, and she wasn't going to risk angering him again. Not after what happened last night.
Sure, she loved him. She loved him with all of her being. It was as if Inuyasha didn't even exist anymore. But she was still scared of that side of him. When he was angry, it was as if he wasn't even himself. All his actions were decided by his rage.
"Big Brother, it's already time to eat again and we still haven't found any jewel shards. I thought you said you and the girl were going to start going alone so that we didn't have to waste so much time. After all, it doesn't take that many people to find jewel shards, does it?" Jakotsu asked.
Bankotsu stopped and turned his head halfway facing his brother. His long bangs covered his eyes.
"Yes, I guess I did say that, didn't I? But can't I change my mind?" He asked.
Jakotsu stepped back once and his expression turned a little scared. Bankotsu's voice had been so harsh and his look so evil that it totally freaked Jakotsu out. He could tell Bankotsu was in one of his 'moods' and complained anyway. That wasn't a good idea.
"Of course, big brother." Jakotsu answered immediately.
They continued on, not even stopping to eat.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Inuyasha ran quickly through the forest. He had finally done it.
He had finally picked up her scent.
It was faint, but it was there. He continued running the way he smelled it, and it got stronger. He could also smell the stench of those dead mercenaries around hers. He didn't like it. The idea of Kagome being alone with 7 bloodthirsty men who killed for a living; it made him shudder.
It wasn't long until he spotted them. His heartbeat quickened as he saw Kagome. She looked fine, and even had a new kimono on. She looked in great condition.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Bankotsu froze. He sensed something. No, he sensed him. He sensed Inuyasha.
His mood was immediately turned off, and he was ready for anything. He stiffened and got ready to be ambushed.
The other brothers noticed his change of posture and got into their own battle stances.
"What is it Big Brother?" Jakotsu asked.
It was silent as Bankotsu listened. "Inuyasha" He said harshly.
Kagome's heart nearly jumped out of her chest with the shock, relief, and confusion she was feeling right now. She pondered what would happen. What would happen to her? But she was soon brought out of her thoughts.
Bankotsu grabbed her roughly and held her tightly against him. He had one hand on Banryu and one arm wrapped around her.
Kagome didn't struggle. First of all, she knew she would just fail. Second, she wasn't so sure she wanted to. Instead she just stayed there like he wanted her to.
Inuyasha grimaced at the way he held her to his body. He was going to pay for taking Kagome. But why in all hells wasn't she struggling against him? He had obviously grabbed her harshly.
Inuyasha had had enough. He jumped out of the bushes, going straight for Bankotsu. Bankotsu blocked him with Banryu.
"Hold her, and don't let go." He said sternly and through Kagome to Suikotsu, who was now in his other form.
He caught her bridal style with no effort. Kagome eeped. She didn't want to be with this monster! He actually scared her a lot when he was in this form. She struggled against him, but he effortlessly held her back. She wasn't really trying to go anywhere, just trying to get out of the hands of a psychopath.
Inuyasha and Bankotsu were already fighting relentlessly. First it was just bucking swords, but they started pulling energy attacks soon after.
Inuyasha let out his wind scar, and Bankotsu jumped out of the way easily. Bankotsu shot out Banryussen and Inuyasha did the same. It was enough that the wind scar and Banryussen were colliding, the energies forcing against each other.
Unfortunately for Inuyasha, Bankotsu had gotten more jewel shards, and more jewel shards meant more power. Banryussen was starting to win over.
Soon enough, the light pink energy overtook the Wind Scar, which unfortunately took Inuyasha by surprise. It hit him, and sent him across the clearing.
Kagome watched the battle with wide eyes. Just waiting for something horrible to happen. She wasn't waiting for nothing. It wasn't too much later that Inuyasha started losing.
Bankotsu glided across the clearing gracefully. Despite his feudal battle with Inuyasha, he wasn't even wounded.
Bankotsu placed one foot on Inuyasha's chest, hovering over him with a smirk. He put the tip of Banryu to his neck. "Prepare to die, Inuyasha." Bankotsu spat out triumphantly.
Just as he was about to plunge Banryu through Inuyasha's neck, he heard her. Her anguished yell.
Kagome had somehow broken free of Suikotsu and ran towards them, the band of seven not far behind. As soon as she and the rest of the 5 got there Suikotsu grabbed her forearms, holding her back and preventing her from going any closer.
Bankotsu turned his head up and saw the tears rolling down her cheeks. His face kept the angry expression as before.
"NO! Bankotsu! Please stop!" She half yelled, half sobbed.
Bankotsu turned his head down toward Inuyasha, and an even angrier frown covered his face at her words. She wanted him alive.
Seeing how he wasn't stopping she spoke up again.
"Bankotsu please! I'm begging you! Please don't kill him!" She cried.
He raised Banryu higher, and got ready to plunge it into him. Once Inuyasha was dead, he would have no more worries. Kagome wouldn't be able to love Inuyasha anymore. Naraku would be satisfied.
He had to ignore her cries, even though it was taking up all his self-control as possible not to leave Inuyasha and go comfort her.
"WAIT! Bankotsu! I swear, I'll never forgive you if you do this! I'll hate you! Please listen to me!" Her sobs were growing louder, almost screams now.
Bankotsu hesitated. He couldn't do it. He couldn't say no to her, not when she was crying like this. Not when she was begging him to stop. Not when she was there. But he wouldn't give up. He had to kill Inuyasha.
"What are you waiting for?" Inuyasha barely managed to get out. The Wind Scar and Banryussen had injured him quite badly. He coughed up some blood from having to force the words out.
Bankotsu's expression grew even tighter. What was he waiting for?
"Get her out of here." He said through clenched teeth, his eyes never leaving the place where he was about to stab Banryu into.
"What?" Suikotsu asked, a little confused.
He turned to face them, and that's when they all saw his raging face.
"GET HER OUT OF HERE!" He yelled angrily.
"W-Where?" Jakotsu asked.
"I DON'T CARE, JUST GET HER AWAY!" He yelled. There was no way he could deny her request when she was sobbing and pleading for him to stop.
Kagome started struggling violently again, finally getting what he was saying. Suikotsu held her arms tightly and began pulling her away as quickly as he could.
"BANKOTSU! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO ME! PLEASE!" She yelled as Suikotsu forcefully pulled her out of the clearing.
Bankotsu didn't move. He was just waiting for her entire presence to be away from him. He couldn't stand it. This was definitely the time she had looked the worst to him. Tears stained her face beautiful face, and sobs choked back her wonderful voice. Such fear was in her eyes. But not for herself, for him. For Inuyasha. Even if she wasn't totally in love with Inuyasha, she was far from ready to lose him completely. She had sounded so entirely desperate. Her voice was tarnished so badly with sadness and pleads. And he couldn't do anything about it…No, he could. He could stop himself. He could stop himself right now, and she would be happy. She wouldn't hate him as she said she would. She would be happy. And it seemed that all he had caused the innocent girl since he had been with her was sadness. He just kept piling it onto her, and one day she was going to burst. One day she would be so broken, that he just couldn't fix her. He had to. He had to decide what to do, and quickly.
Suikotsu and the others dragged her roughly through the woods and into another clearing, far off from the other one. Mostly because she had been struggling so incredibly violently.
He through her down onto the tough ground harshly. She immediately curled into ball and cried her eyes out into her knees. She was waiting to hear it. To hear Inuyasha's grunt of pain, or the sound of Banryu combining with skin.
The rest of the band of Seven was pretty confused. They just ignored the bawling girl at their feet. What the hell was going on and why didn't Bankotsu just plunge his Big ass sword straight through Inuyasha's heart? Why would he even consider listening to this wench, and most importantly… what the fuck was going on?!
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
A/N: Okay so sorry about the cliffy… not! Anyway I this was SO fun to write. Okay, and I totally know I suck at action scenes, so I don't need to hear that again. It's the best I can do. Actually I am going to start reading some more action stories so I can get a better idea of how to write them exactly. And I can't wait to write the lemon! I've had enough experience reading those if you know what I mean… JK lol!. That will come in later though, once… okay I've already said too much. Now, thank you all for being such great fans! LoVe YA! Okay, and I was jw, are there any guys who read my story? I'm seriously jw, and because there might be some girlish kindove crap in one of the coming chapters that ya'll probably don't want to hear. I'll put a warning for it though. I'll call the warning 'Girl stuff that guys don't like' k? But that will be a funny chap. But I might put it on my other story, not sure. Either way, I'll warn you guys. Now, I have got to stop rambling on and say goodbye, so BYE!
