Chapter Six of The Princess and The Misunderstood Nightmare

Title:Inuyasha's little tricks

I had been hungry all the years;

My noon had come, to dine;

I, trembling, drew the table near,

And touched the courious wine.

'Twas this on tables I had seen,

When turning, hungry, lone,

I looked in the windows, for the wealth

I could not hope to own.

I did not know the ample bread,

'Twas so unlike the crumb

The birds and I had often shared

In Nature's dining-room.

The plenty hurt me, 'Twas so new,

Myself felt ill and odd,

As berry of a mountain bush

Transplanted to the road.

Nor was I hungry; so I found

That hunger was a way

Of persons ouside windows,

The entering takes away.

By

Emily Dickinson

(not my poem!)

It was the next day, the sun was rising in the east shining

down on our travelers. Inuyasha opened his eyes,

temporarily being blinded by the sun. When the sun cleared

from his eyes what he saw took his breath away. The sun was

shining down on Kagome making her look like some type of

fallen angel. Her skin looked flawless and with the sun on

it, it make her skin look like it was shining. Inuyasha

was shocked from how beautiful she look at that moment.

Inuyasha didn't want to get up for he would have to take

his eyes off of the angel in front of him, but he new she

would want to get a head start and get home sooner.

Inuyasha got up and walked over to Kagome. He bent down and

shook her shoulder gently. "Kagome it's time to wake up."

He said. Kagome moved a little but made no sigh of getting

up. Inuyasha shook her again but she didn't even move this

time. Inuyasha was starting to get a little mad. He shook

her a little harder this time. Kagome rolled over but did

not get up. Inuyasha shook her even harder then the last

time and just by the sheer force of the push she rolled over

and into a pond that happened to be right next to her.

Kagome came up screeching and screaming. Inuyasha had a

look of pure shock on his face. "Inuyasha why in the seven

hells did you do that! When I get my hands on you I am

going to ring your neck until there isn't a ounce of blood

left in your body!" Kagome yelled. Inuyasha now had a look

of surprise on his face; he didn't think a princess new

that kind of language. Kagome got out of the pond, dripping

wet and cold. By now Inuyasha had enough of a brain to go

and hide; even if it wasn't his fault she didn't know that

and probably wouldn't believe him if he told her.

"Inuyasha! Where are you?! Come out here and face me, you

sniveling coward! Inuyasha! Come here right now!

Inuyasha!!" she screeched. Inuyasha was hiding in a tree

near by so he could keep an eye on her but not get in

trouble, but then he noticed she was drawing a lot of

attention from the demons around her. He knew they were

there, they have been following then since they left he

just didn't want to tell her since she would probably

worry all the time. He knew they wouldn't bother them; they

were weak demons and he could take care of them but they

were smart enough to stay away, but now she was drawing a

whole different crowd all together. Inuyasha jumped down

from the tree that he was in, witch was now behind Kagome.

Inuyasha grabbed Kagome a held her mouth shut. At first she

screamed like there was no tomorrow, but she soon relized

it was Inuyasha. She turned around to yell at him but

stopped in mid breath when she noticed the look on his

face. "What's wrong Inuyasha?" she asked. The only thing

she got out of him was a "Shhhhh!". Kagome was looking

around, when she noticed how close she was to Inuyasha. He

had grabbed her from behind, there for when she turned

around it made it where she was right next to him, and to

make matters worse he was holding her quite tight around

the waist; almost like he was afraid to let her go. All of

a sudden it happened so quick that Kagome didn't have time

to blush over her previous thought. Inuyasha jumped into

the air avoiding an attack from out of no where. Now she

new why he was acting so weird. There was something out

there and he must have been trying to hear it. Inuyasha

landed in a tree saying "stay in the tree, I will be right

back." And with that left. Kagome watched him leave;

running into the trees, never looking back. but a few

minute later she could hear something big moving in the

forest. A couple of minutes passed by and the moving died

down, but all of a sudden she could hear loud cracking

noises. Inuyasha came running out of the forest like a

bullet. There was something coming out of the forest after

him. Kagome looked at Inuyasha; she saw him draw him sword.

At first it looked like some old rusted thing and she was

thinking "What good is that thing going to do him?" but

then it turned into what looked like a large fang. Inuyasha

charged at the demon, jumped into the air and cried "Wind

Scar!". A four large yellow beams came out of the sword

heading straight for the demon. The demon screeched louder

then her ears could handle making her cover them, and by

doing this she fell out of the tree. The demon didn't die

from the attack and Kagome recovered from the fall in

enough time to see that and that Inuyasha couldn't believe

the demon was still alive. The demon was in a frenzy; he

was running everywhere not caring witch way he went. The

attack may not have killed him but it sure made him mad.

The demon started running toward Kagome. Kagome screamed

and ducked hoping the demon would not hit her. But the

demon never came. Kagome looking up and saw that Inuyasha

tackled it. The demon got his claws through Inuyasha

stomach or at least that what it looked like to Kagome. She

was starting to get worried. For that past week that she

has been with him, she has never seen him fight. The only

time she had any idea as to how he fought was when he came

crawling into the cave. The demon was getting ready to

deliver the final blow, but while he was doing that

Inuyasha was doing the same. Kagome looked at Inuyasha, he

looked like he was glowing. Kagome didn't know what was

going on, the demon charged at Inuyasha and while he did

that Inuyasha got down into a crouch position. The demon

realized what was going to happen to him a little to late;

by the time he did Inuyasha was already upon him. Inuyasha

charged at the demon crying out some word Kagome could not

here and after he said this fire came out from all around

him or at least that's what it looked like. The demon

screeched; being surrounded by fire was not what he wanted

to do today. The demon died and turned to ashes right

in front of Kagome. Kagome stood up and walked over to

Inuyasha. Kagome could not believe he was able to do that.

She had heard legends of demons that could do that but only

the strongest of the strong were able to. Inuyasha went

from standing to kneeling in a matter of seconds. Kagome ran

over to him. "Inuyasha are you alright?" but Inuyasha

didn't respond. He was taking deep breaths. Kagome noticed

that her pants were turning red she looked down and saw

that Inuyasha was bleeding very badly from his stomach. "Oh

my god! Inuyasha we need to get you some help!" Kagome

exclaimed. "There is no one around for miles, just help me

get over to that tree." Inuyasha said. Kagome stood up and

helped Inuyasha do the same. When they got over to the tree

Kagome started to take off Inuyasha's shirt and under

shirt. Inuyasha started to protest but he was too weak to

do anything. Kagome got his shirts off and reached into her

bag getting an extra shirt and ripped to into ribbons.

"Inuyasha I need you to sit up some so I can clean

your wounds." She said. Inuyasha did so without complaint.

Kagome cleaned his wounds and bandaged them. Inuyasha could

tell she was really worried. "Kagome don't worry I'll be

OK, it's just I am more tired then injured. That demon wore

me out and using that element attack that I did used more

energy. They usually aren't that hard to kill but since

it's hunting season demons and more determined. Would have

been able to kill him a lot easier if I didn't have you

here with me." He said hoping to make her feel better. But

Kagome started crying. "If I wasn't here you wouldn't have

gotten hurt." Kagome said with a sob. "No, that's not true

Kagome, it's just that I wasn't able to use my stronger

attacks because they could have hurt you. See I could have

used them but I didn't want to risk hurting you so I

didn't. its not your fault Kagome." Kagome just starred at

him then laid down on Inuyasha's shoulder and went to bed.

Inuyasha would never know how much he helped her that

night.
