Kagome looked up from playing with her two children at the tree that stood outside their house. She had thought she saw a blur of something but soon decided it was nothing, but she couldn't help the feeling of emptiness she felt deep within her soul. It was the same feeling she got every once in a while each day. She never really could place it, but her miko energy definitely felt weakened each time it happened.
"Mommy, what was that weird feeling?" A young girl about the age of six asked.
Kagome looked down at her adorable children who had stopped momentarily playing with their playdough. They were twins, a boy and a girl and both were very unique and always had to wear to a special bracelet that wouldn't let people see what they really looked like, but when they it was just family, it was alright not to wear. So, Kagome smiled down at a little girl who had long dark hair and gold eyes. She then glanced over at her son who had long silver hair, dog-ears and violet/blue eyes.
"Oh, honey, it was nothing. Probably just our miko energy sensing a demon or something off in the distance."
"Really?! That's cool. Where are the demons?" the little boy asked.
"They are everywhere, Baby, but you can't see them because they wear special things like you, but we can sense them because we are unique," Kagome explained patting them on the head.
"Why are we so unique, Mommy?" Mizuki asked.
Kagome instantly froze
"Miroku, where is your sorry ass?" InuYasha called out as he opened the door to his apartment and called for his long time best friend.
"I'm making myself the best damn dinner ever, my friend," Miroku said back as InuYasha walked into their small kitchen.
InuYasha sighed as he looked at the feast Miroku was cooking. It was macaroni and cheese…again. InuYasha loved noodles but not this much, and plus it wasn't even Ramen…his favorite. InuYasha sat down at their small table and half watched as his friend cooked.
Miroku wasn't really a bad guy. He had shoulder length dark hair that was kept pulled back in low pony tail and he wore a long purple tunic and a pair of jeans. He was a supposed monk, but he acted more like a pervert everyday. In fact he still had a giant bruise on his eye from his latest victim. A strong, independent girl named Sango, who when he asked his infamous question, "Will you bear my children, you are the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on!" And with Sango, being Sango apparently, she punched him square in the eye. They had met on the street passing each other during a lunch break, and that's where it all went down, yet somehow Miroku still got her number.
"So, when are you going to come out in the open and tell Kagome that you love her?" Miroku asked as he sat down with a large bowl of macaroni and cheese and to InuYasha's distast, tobascco sauce covering it.
"That hurts my nose," grunted InuYasha as he sat back from the table.
"That wasn't my question and you know it. Why do you keep avoiding it?"
"What am I supposed to do? Huh? Knock on her door and say, 'Hi, I'm the father of your children, I'm the one who raped you that one night and I've been watching over you for the past six years.' Yeah, I don't think that would go over to well. She would probably purify the shit out of me."
Miroku's fork filled of noodles stopped midway to his mouth and he gaped at InuYasha. "She is a miko?"
"Yeah, I figured that out a few weeks ago. It amazes that she didn't purify me when I did that to her. Or that she hasn't sensed me by now."
"Well there are two very good explanations for this probably."
"And those would be," answered InuYasha looking bored.
"Either one, you are her soul mate and this was meant to actually happen, or two, she just hasn't tapped that far into her powers yet."
Soul mates? Could that really be? No…I did this out of stupidity. She is too wonderful to have me, a hanyou, a worthless half-breed, as a soul mate. Let alone someone she could love. InuYasha abruptly stood up and walked away from the table down the hall way towards his room. "Its definitely your second thought, the first one would be impossible!" He yelled back at Miroku with a deafening slam of his door confirming he was done talking.
Miroku took another bite of his dinner and sighed. "If only he would open his eyes," he mumbled to himself quietly enough that his friend's sensitive hearing wouldn't even pick up. When I've gone there with him to see her, him sitting in that tree, I can feel the bond. I can feel that they have a special connection, but I guess….whatever. He'll open his eyes soon enough.
He couldn't see anything but red. He couldn't feel anything but red hot heat.
He could smell the blood on his claws and also the smell of something sweet and flowery all around him.
"Please, please, what are you doing?!?!" A young girl screamed.
InuYasha looked down and saw a young girl beneath him. He was pinning her down by her arms and her head was moving back and forth while screamed at him wondering what he was doing. "Stop moving!" He demanded as he slammed her arms back.
"Please don't hurt me!" Kagome screamed with tears pouring out of her eyes as she looked up into blood red ones.
"NO! You will be mine!"
"NO!" InuYasha screamed as he bolted awake off of his bed. He was breathing heavey and sweat was pouring off of him. He hated that dream, the dream that was actually a reality.
He looked over at his clock and realized that is was ten o'clock at night. "Shit!" He exclaimed as he jumped up out of bed and bolted out of his room.
"Later," Miroku waved as he could hear his friend dash out the door, without even a goodbye.
"Goodnight, Sweetie," Kagome cooed as she tucked in Mizuki.
"G'night, Mommy," Mizuki yawned as she rolled over and within in seconds was silently asleep.
Kagome got up and looked around the room. It was a small room, one that would definitely get smaller as the kids grew older, but the twins enjoyed it now at least. Kagome walked over and looked over at the two twin sized beds that were almost right next to each other and that held her sleeping children. They have gotten so big, she thought to herself. I just hope that one day, they are able to walk around this world as hanyous and not have to wear those damn concealment charms.
Kagome looked out the window and could hear a rusteling of the leaves from the tree outside of their house. That presence. I can feel it again, she almost smiled at the thought; that presence that she could feel and that was somewhat comforting. She smiled one last time and walked out of the room closing the door. Going to her own room, Kagome felt the presence in their as well and smiled to herself again as she laid down her bed to go to sleep.
InuYasha watched her intently as she did all this. Not wanting to take his eyes off of her for a second. This was his favorite part of the night, when they were asleep and he didn't have to stay so hidden, but he could just bask in their aura.
She could feel the long claws cutting into her and his swear dripping down on her as he ravanged her over and over again.
"PLEASE STOP!" She begged, but when she looked up through all the tears all she saw were blazing red eyes that seemed devoid of all emotion.
He slammed into her mouth with a fiery kiss that she couldn't help but to respond to. This is all because, even though she was crying out in pain and begging for him to stop, she deep down enjoyed it and that was the thought that made her want to die the most.
"Calm down," the rough dog demon hissed in her ear. "I don't want to accidentally have to sharpen my claws with you."
Kagome immediately tensed up feeling the strong change of his aura.
"Be a good girl and kiss me back, and say my name."
Kagome's body began to rack with sobs as the demon above her began pushing harder and harder into her. "I don't know your name," she managed to choke out.
The demon sneered at her for a moment and then right before the last bone-crushing kiss where he would change her life forever he whispered, "InuYasha".
Kagome sat upright in bed almost immediately. "InuYasha," she whispered to herself touching her lips. She hadn't dreamt about that part of the accident ever before. The name, however; seemed to fit as it rolled across her tongue and could immediately feel warmth surround her heart, as sickening as that may seem.
InuYasha peered in her bedroom window and watched her, utterly shocked that she had said his name. His name sounded beautiful on her angel lips, but he knew that she was never meant to speak his name, and that made his heart plummet to the ground.
Kagome looked over at the tree outside her window and could feel eyes watching her. I wonder what this really is, what this presence really is. She couldn't help but go to the window and look out. Lucikly InuYasha had seen it coming though and he jumped up silently on to her roof so he wouldn't be spotted.
He could feel her aura and he just wanted to reach down and touch her so badly.
I can feel it even stronger now, god its so comforting, she sighed closing her eyes. Then, out of no where she could feel a hand caressing her cheek.
