Chapter Six
The Battle (Part Two)
FLASHBACK
Tentacles shot out towards Kikyou and Kagome.
"KIKYOU!" InuYasha shouted. 'NO! I won't make it!'
"Too late, InuYasha!," Naraku shouted as his tentacles pierced her chest and Kagome's shoulder. InuYasha froze, not even registering Kagome's cry of pain as Naraku's tentacle was removed nor the scent of her tears as she grasped her shoulder which had a gaping hole in it. His eyes were locked on Kikyou's falling body.
'No! Kikyou... I... I didn't... I couldn't... I'll KILL NARAKU FOR THAT!' In his anger, InuYasha felt the pull of his demon blood and didn't bother to fight it. Through the bloody haze that clouded his vision he didn't see the wooden doll that lay where Kikyou's body should have been. The only thing running through his mind 'Blood..... Kill... destroy. KILL!!!!'
Sango and Miroku had frozen in place. It was Kagome's pain filled shriek that brought them back to their senses. They rushed over and gasped in shock. Kagome had a HOLE through her shoulder.
Sango had been terrified for their friend. Inuyasha had injuries worse than this but he was hanyou... if Kagome kept losing blood... "Miroku! I'm going to go get Kagome's bag i'll--- i'll be back in a minuite."
Miroku nodded and watched as sango took off into the forest. He watched as Kagome bit her lip so hard it bled while trying to stop from screaming. Every so often he could have sworn he heard her mumble something but then again she was in a lot of pain.
Kagome's head snapped up her eyes wide and shouted "Out of the way Miroku!" before pushing him out of the way of the incoming claws. She cried out as the claws came into contact with her injured shoulder. Landing on he ground in a heap she slowly raised her head to stare at their attacker. Her eyes watered when she saw inuyasha simply standing there with blood red eyes jagged purple stripes on his cheeks.
Out of the corner of her eye she saw Miroku stand and grab his staff. without looking away from Inuyasha's eyes she said "Stay there Miroku."
"But Lady Kagome..."
"It'll be fine Miroku."
He nodded but stayed in a defensive position anyways. He watched as Kagome stood up. "I don't think the beads of subjugation will hep us here lady Kagome."
"I know don't worry." She knew? then she was..... ah.... A wide hentai grin spread across his face as he remembered how Kagome had stopped Inuyasha's transformation at Kaguya's Castle.
He watched and waited. When Kagome stood almost directly in front of the strangely still Inuyasha He heard kagome murmur. "Yes. It will. I know it will." What did she know? Will what? He watched as Kagome lifted her good arm and placed her hand on inuyasha's cheek. The hanyou turned youkai cocked its head as if thinking over something very puzzling before turning and nuzzling Kagome's hand. It stopped when Kagome giggled.
"Come back to me..." The Hanyou turned Youkai stood there while Kagome pushed herself up and onto her tip-toes before closing her eyes and slowly placing her lips over his. the reaction was almost immediate. The hanyou turned youkai wrapped its arms around Kagome's waist and pulled her closer while kissing back. Kagome was shocked when a deep rumbling seemed to fill her, but she didn't break the kiss.
He pulled back for a minute and kagome opened her eyes only to find Inuyasha's still red, the jagged purple markings still on his cheeks. She was going to pull back and try something else when his grip on her waist tightened and he spoke briefly before kissing her again "...Kagome...."
Miroku stared at the couple in shock and awe, had inuyasha just spoken while in his youkai form? He watched as they kissed for a long minute and when inuyasha drew back he buried his face into her neck. Kagome stayed not moving, glad that Inuyasha had somehow made no contact with her injured arm or shoulder. "...Kagome...."
"Are you with me Inuyasha?" she asked softly. As she said his name the hanyou jerked back and away from Kagome startling her. She and Miroku watched unable to do anything as Inuyasha grabbed his head and growled.
"No you'll hurt her!"
Miroku wasn't quite sure what to make of this. Inuyasha's Youkai had never spoken before... and the fact that that last statement was said it the deep guttural voice of the youkai-hanyou rather than Inuyasha's alto. After a moment Inuyasha calmed.
"Inu...Yasha?" whispered kagome in a very worried tone. Slowly the hanyou raised it's head and half lidded amber eyes stared at Kagome.
"Inuyasha you okay now?" He looked tired. Very tired. He took a step towards her and fell in a heap on top of her.
Kagome held in her shriek when she landed on her injured arm and shook her head when Miroku made his way over to help. She felt inuyasha nuzzle her cheek affectionately. And miroku cringed as tears streaked down Kagome's face at Inuyasha's next tired words. "K-Kikyou.... you're okay...."
