Chapter 3

" Kagome! Kagome! KAGOME, ANSWER ME, DAMNIT!" Inuyasha yelled. He sighed. This was going to take forever. ' I have to find her! And soon, before that bastard Nara…' " THAT BASTARD ALREADY HAS HER!" Inuyasha yelled, and began to sniff out Kagome's scent, which wasn't easy since it was pouring down rain. Soon, our favorite puppy would be soaked to the bone, but will continue on looking for his love! ' I said dramatically.' " Um… EXCUSE me! Let's get a couple of things straight here. 1. I'm doing this for Shippo," " Yeah, right" " Shut up you piece of.." " HEY! I'M THE AUTHOR HERE, NOT YOU! SO I CAN SAY ANYTHING I WANT AND ALSO MAKE YOU DO THINGS I WANT YOU TO DO! SO DON'T EVEN TRY IT, BUSTER! GOT THAT?" (This is where Inuyasha cowered before me, giving me a great sense of pride.) 'Now, back to the story. Sorry about that folks.'

Now, Inuyasha was soaked to the bone, but continued looking for his love. Kinda.

Kagome's P.O.V.

" Thank you, Jaken." Kagome gratefully took the clothes from the toad-like thing. "Whatever." " What did you just say, TOAD ?" Sesshy snarled. " Yo.. your q..Quite wel.. welcome, my lady." Jaken slurred. " That's better!" Sesshy gave Jaken a look of uttermost spite, and then showed Kags to a small area where she could change in peace. While she changed, Rin padded up to Sesshy. " Do you like her, Lord Sesshomaru? Can she stay with us a little longer? Will you protect her from the mean man called Naraku?" while Rin droned on about her questions, Sesshomaru looked around the room and saw Kagome step out of the shadows.

Sesshomaru's jaw literally fell out of his mouth. She looked stunning. Her raven hair fit perfectly with her top. It was white with bright pink sakura petals were stitched into the silky kimono. Her bottoms were made of red silk, and looked just like Inuyasha's. " Oh, Ms. Kagome! You look so pretty!" Rin squealed happily. " Can I do your hair for you? Pretty please with pineapple on top?" Rin pleaded. Kagome smiled. " Of course!" "Thank you so much! You'll love it I promise!" Sesshomaru smiled. He loved how gentle and caring Kagome was with Rin. ' Am I falling in love with her? Is this feeling love? The feeling that your heart swells up whenever you see the one you favor? Foolishness! I cannot be in love! …. Can I?' Sesshomaru went into deep thinking. He just watched how Rin made different designs in Kagome's hair. Whenever Rin did, she always asked Sesshy's opinion. After about the fifty-fifth time, Sesshy saw Rin make an especially pretty hairstyle, which looked like a loose bun with a select few jeweled hairpins. (If you have PS2 game, Secret of the Cursed mask, then you'll know it's the one with Sango, only this time, it's Kagome, not her.) Before Rin could ask, Sesshomaru said, " I really like that one." Rin smiled. That was the hairstyle that Kagome would wear. Kagome took a mirror out of her bag and looked at it. " It looks beautiful, Rin!" " What's that thing you're holding, Ms. Kagome?" Rin asked. " It's called a mirror. You can see your reflection and what you look like!" Kagome explained. " Cool!" Rin exclaimed, fascinated by the shiny mirror. Kagome and Sesshomaru glanced at one another, and they both grinned. Kags stood up and sat down next to Sesshomaru.

"Thank you for taking care of me…" Kagome whispered. "If that bastard comes back, I'll kill him." Sesshy growled. Kags smiled. Then, she gently kissed Sesshomaru on the cheek. Immediately, Sesshomaru's insides burned with extreme happiness. He wanted that to happen over and over again, because that burning sensation, he liked it. But he liked being kissed by Kagome even more. Without realizing it, he started to blush, harder and harder. " Sesshy?" The word flew out of her mouth before she could stop it. She immediately regretted it. " WHAT IN HELLS NAME DID YOU JUST SAY?" Jaken exploded, spit flying everywhere. "I.. I didn't mean to say it! I really didn't mean to!" Kagome responded, frightened. " JAKEN! YOU LITTLE PIECE OF DIRT! HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO MY MATE LIKE THAT!" Sesshomaru bellowed. Now everybody was shocked. Jaken was the first to regain his composure. " Ma.. mate, my lord? Did you just say, MATE?" Jaken blubbered. Kagome stared at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru glanced at all the bewildered faces. When his eyes looked at Kagome, shame flowed through his body. " I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. You may be in love with someone else." And with that, he turned and began to walk outside. " WAIT!" Kagome called. "Sesshomaru! Please wait!" Kagome stood up and ran after him. He stopped just by the entrance. She caught up. " Can I walk with you?" she asked. He nodded. They both walked out into the rain. Jaken began to follow, but Rin grabbed his arm and pulled him back. Jaken grumbled something about wenches, pathetic, and girls, but went back to a corner of the cave.

Outside

Plap, plap, plap, plap, plap. The rain still pounded on the forest. " Where are we, Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked. Silence. " Sesshomaru?" Kagome looked around. " Sesshomaru? SESSHOMARU!" She screamed. ' Where is he? Can't he hear me?'

" Sesshomaru!" she cried out. " Kagome?" a soft voice floated to her ears. 'He must be far away!' She thought. She began to run towards the sound. " Sesshomaru?" "Kagome!" "I'm right here!" she called. A padding sound came towards her, then a flash of white and red mixed with white, purple, and blue tumbled out of a thicket of fir trees. She gasped. " Inuyasha! Sesshomaru!" A pair of puppy ears perked right up. Inuyasha kicked Sesshomaru and bounded towards Kagome. "Kagome! I finally found you! Where have you been? You di.." POW! " Errggh!" Inu collapsed on the ground, knocked out by Sesshomaru. " I needed a little more time with you." Sesshy said, and grabbed Kagome in a hug. " Se..Sesshomaru!" She just stared at him. She had to take care of Inuyasha. So she gently began to push away. That's when Sesshomaru pulled her into a kiss that startled her. VERY unfortunately, Inuyasha woke up. Kagome resisted, and tried to pull away. But Sesshomaru held fast. Inuyasha stood up and turned to face Sesshomaru. " YOU SICK BASTARD!" Inuyasha lunged for Kagome, and pulled her away. " I HATE YOU!" Inuyasha moved at the speed of sound, knocking Sesshomaru to the ground for the second time in his life. He started punching the life out of Sesshomaru. " You..tried…to..take…Kagome..out..of..my…LIFE!" Inuyasha managed to say between punches. Kagome watched in horror. " NO! STOP! STOP, INUYASHA!" Kagome screamed, yanking with all her might, trying to save Sesshomaru's and Inuyasha's life. Inuyasha pulled away, his breaths coming in short gasps. " He deserves to DIE!" Inuyasha lunged for him again, but Kagome held him back. " It was not Sesshomaru, Inuyasha! It was.." " Me." The three-some whirled around to find Naraku standing not six feet away. " You bastard! Why did you want Kagome? Answer me you…" Naraku interrupted Inuyasha. " I needed a lady's hand in marriage to truly become a demon. A prophecy once read, ' A girl of strong will and mind, shall come forth from nother land. Many men shall seek her heart, for her beauty is beyond compare. Four of the many men seek her all throughout the land. Yet only three are pure hearted, and the fourth is evil. And of those three, the girl must choose.

It is yet to find, which of the three, shall be chosen, and live with this girl for eternity.' That is why I need Kagome's hand in marriage." Naraku smirked thinking he had won. " You will not be the one who takes my hand." Kagome hissed, taking Inuyasha's arm. " And why not, love?" "I swear to god, if you call me 'love' one more time, I'll make sure you'll regret it! As I was saying, you are NOT pure hearted, but Koga, Inuyasha, and Sesshomaru ARE! You are the fourth man. The evil one." " You'll never take her, Naraku!" Sesshomaru growled. " We'll see about that!" Naraku cackled, as her grabbed Kagome and flew into the forest. " KAGOME!" The two brothers set off feverishly in search of their love.
