character's thoughts

Chapter 24: Try… try again

The silence was a heavy one .Filled with shock and anxiety.

"what!?" Sango exclaimed after ,what seemed to be, an eternity. " why would you say 'no' !?" She added after a few seconds. " I… I said no because ' She' told me to, my youkai side ." The other girl said calmly.

Sango seemed to maul the information over for a while, her head down staring at the luke- warm water she and her friend were relaxing in. she raised her head after awhile ,and was about to reply before Kagome got out of the water , dressed, and walked off.

But not before she called back," I'm going back! I don't feel good! Sor…" The rest was cut off by the sheer distance Kagome had put inbetween them.

Good… perfect… She'll fall for us… on all fours (don't be a hentai!)

Look I don't want you thinking those kind of thoughts about Kagome

You mean our Kagome, and I can think anything I want about our Kagome

Inuyasha growled out into the night . as he fought to keep up his mental barriers he had against his youkai side up. They had been … perhaps I should say He had been working for hours to prepare his surprise for Kagome…

He suddenly got a whiff of her scent, several other smells clinging to it… water …feline…smoke… dandelions, and lilies. He could tell she had been bathing with Kirara and Sango. He relaxed in the only scent he was really paying any attention to; Kagome's; vanilla, cherry blossoms, and a touch of cinnamon.

It smelled awkwardly attracting. As if it had matured.

We'll show her in the morning… she won't be able to resist…

The youkai said to him, within his own mind, it's voice full of longing… and the undeniable sound of an assuredness , as though he were smirking.

With that he returned to Keade's hut, to see Kagome, and Shippo curled up in a black and orange ball on top of Kagome's sleeping bag.

He smiled. She was already acting like a mother towards the young kit. She might even start lactating for him , Inuyasha thought whims fully as he looked at her prone form wrapped around the fox's body; her tail curled around him and her ears high on her head in an alert stance.

He was tempted to go over and stroke the furry appendage, but not before he collapsed, seemingly in, pain.

As she walked towards the village , which was only a few meters ahead of her, when she suddenly got a whiff of her love's scent .

Kagome furrowed her brow. It smelled … different . Her unasked question , went un answered by her youkai side, which said : I don't Know why.

With that , she suddenly hit something hard… She had walked into the side Keade's hut . She rubbed her for head before going inside , and laying down. As soon as she did, she fell into a deep sleep, not noticing as Shippo crawled to be beside her.
