Fates Destiny: A Priestess of Time and a Half Demon (Chap. 2)

Kagome

Inuyasha smiled and wiped away her tears, before lifting her head and… kissing her, as he had wanted me to do many a times before.

"What about Kikyo", Kagome whispered weakly, with fluttered eyes.

"What about her, I'm yours now", He answered; sending chills flying down her spine. 'Could he actually have chosen her,' she thought silently in awe of his golden eyes that were veiled upon her own dark brown ones.

"Inuyasha", he listened to her as if he was clinging unto every word she said, "I have something to tell you."

"Yes", he smiled, as she climbed onto his back.

"I love you", she yawned as she buried her head in his long silver hair, falling asleep.

"I love you, too", he replied in an inaudible voice, and turning he nuzzled her cheek softly.

Inuyasha

She had almost left him and that much had scared him. He didn't want her to go, for he realized how much she meant to him. Looking down, he saw her laying against the tree. Moving closer slowly, he gazed at her face awestruck by the beauty it possessed. Hopping down from his branch to where he didn't wake her, he positioned himself to where her arm was draped over him. Smiling happily, he closed his eyes and laid his head onto her, not realizing they were being watched.

Kagome

Kagome awoke the next day to a sleeping Inuyasha in her arms. His face fell into the same position it did on that day, the day they first met. He had been under the cold spell of Kikyo's arrow, but it seemed as if he was merely asleep. Softly, she began to rub his ears and he let out a soft purr much like that of a cat. She had to laugh at this, when she heard a faint rustle of someone in the woods.

"Someone's here Inuyasha", Inuyasha sleepily opened his eyes and listened. When he heard the sounds he stood growling angrily.

Who is this? He thought silently as he tried to recognize the familiar scent.

"Inuyasha, who is it?" Kagome moved over to a tree that was a bit away from where Inuyasha stood. A criminal laughter rang out and the familiar voice they hated so followed it.

"Surely you can remember me Inuyasha. I' m not that hard to forget, am I?"

Naraku walked out with a cold smile, eyes watching Inuyasha. Kagome's eyes widened, as she saw the many shards scattered throughout his body.

"Inuyasha, he has about 10 shards scattered through his body".

"Thanks", Inuyasha pulled out his tetsusaiga, ready for aim.

Inuyasha

Naraku looked away from Inuyasha, and over to Kagome, "You bear much resemblance to Kikyo, woman".

In the blink of an eye, he was so close to her she could feel his breath on her, as his hand rested on her neck. Inuyasha let out a low growl, telling Naraku to get away from her. Naraku's smile widened and the devious gleam in his eyes brightened. Leaning forward he kissed Kagome, whose eyes went wide in surprise. For a short second Naraku disappeared and Kagome let out a low moan of pain, as she coughed blood.

"How cruel Inuyasha," Naraku mocked, "I thought you loved her."

"Kagome", Inuyasha said horrified as he pulled his hand out from her chest, while holding her up, "Naraku, I'll kill you."

Inuyasha moved at Naraku with claws bared to kill, just as Miroku and Sango walked through the bushes.

"Naraku", Miroku yelled getting his wind tunnel ready, before seeing the poisonous insects. Naraku frowned before appearing beside Kagome's inert body.

"I'll be taking the girl", He smiled coldly, before disappearing. Inuyasha fell to his knees with a bowed head.

"Kagome", he yelled out, "I will find you."

He turned Sango and Miroku, "Find Shippo and catch up with me".

After saying this he ran into the bushes, without looking back.

Sango looked at Miroku, before turning and hopping on Kiara and searching for the little fox demon.

Kagome

Naraku hovered beside Kagome's unconscious body. He lowered his face down and a grey misty light shone between them, entering her body as he kissed her. The wound to her chest healed as if it had just been as illusion. The color in her face returned and she was just as she had been, with the exception of the black dog ears that were on her head.

"Why did you save her?" Kagura's voice came from the door.

"That answer should be apparent. By giving the girl a part of my life, she is now a demon. Though I know not why it was dog demon she became", Naraku nodded, and Kagura took leave. Naraku reached down to touch Kagome but as he neared her, his hand caught on black fire as her aura overwhelmed him.
