A Girl's Reassurence
By:Umi Disclaimer : Inuyasha!, Inuyasha!, where art thou Inuyasha. You are not in my power. All characters in this fic belong to the almighty mangaka Rumiko Takahashi. How I wish I were her. In other words I do not own Inuyasha but I wish I did.Although I do own the concept of this story. So I will have to slay any and all who try to snake my idea and create a not-so-good-as-the-original knock off. Or even a better-than-the-original copy. That will not help my writing career
Author's Note : Sorry the last one was so short, I did not know it was that short when I typed it. Anyway it's the weekend and everyone is asleep, so that means type like a mad woman before they wake up to please fan's. Of which I have not yet glares at all the readers dissapointedly. Then again it hasn't been twelve hours since I posted the last chapter so I guess I should give it some time. But like I said in my quote on Iridescent Dreams forum "Patience is not a virtue in my book, just a pain".
So i'm actually writing this AN before I know what i'm going to write in the story. Did you ever want to write a story and then there are many ways it can happen. You want to write them all but you can't. Then you get to the good part of that story (which is half done) and you quit to start another one. Anyway that's how I feel but I will continue this one so I can gather fans. Maybe i'll satisfy my taste with a little side story eh? If I do I will make sure it is evil and sweet at the same time.And don't worry no lemony writing from me, not yet at least evil grin. But maybe lot's of oOcness in this chapter. Not really sure till I write it. Anyway's on with the pain of the obviously mediocre writing and continuously to get worse concept of what I call my first attempt at writing a fanfic. Please bare the pain and review. Sorry for any discomfort my bad writing may invoke in the bowels of your stomach.-- Chapter Two: The 'Slightest' Change of Habit, or is it?
Kagome walked into the well house, dreading her return to the Sengoku-Jidai. She had recalled how many times she had 'sat' Inuyasha out of sheer grogginess, and knew she probably wouldn't be seeing her time in the next couple of days in penance for it. But she swallowed her pride, packed her bag with ramen, and braced herself for another 'fun' trip into the past.
As soon she climbed out of the well she was shocked into submission. The source of which being the panting hanyou that loomed only inches from her face.
"I'm hungry" were his first words after hurrying to the well from Kaede's hut, which he did as soon as caught her scent on the wind.
"Sheesh, hold your horses. At least let me climb out first" She said giving him a little push while hanging over the side of the well. He hastily backed off allowing her enough space to climb the rest of the way out.
"Where are the others?" she stated, ignoring his previous demand purposely to try and agitate him. She looked around like it was the most interesting place in the world.
He blatantly replied with a "Feh" and motioned for her to get on his back. He wasn't about to fight with her or make her mad before he got his food, he wasn't that stupid. She and Sango were the only one's who knew how to make it, and since they were best friends he was pretty sure if Kagome denied him his favorite food Sango would all to gleefully agree.
So with Kagome fastened tightly to his back he bound off as fast as he could so he could get his food as soon as possible. She felt a little tired still from the run and absence of lunch but decided to put off sleep until night actually came, which would be in a few hours.
On the way to the village Inuyasha caught the slightest noise in his ear which sounded incredulously like a growl. He sort of tilted his head acknowledging Kagome before asking "Are you okay?". She was kind of nervous at that question. Because in fact she was terribly hungry. She had skipped her lunch, and she had no intention of eating the ramen she was going to prepare. Despite the fact her stomach was practicaly screaming at her to eat she managed to keep a calm voice and say "i'm okay". Inuyasha's worry was not at all thwarted with that statement though. He was never one to be persuaded so easily.
They reached the village and Kagome greeted everyone with a warm welcoming smile in contrast to Inuyasha's cold grimace filled with spite. They had gotten to Kaede's hut and lull and behold a Kitsune, hyperactive I might add, came out of the hut bouncing around like he was a rubber ball. Somehow that rubber ball had found his way into Kagome's arms. The Youkai, Hanyou, and Human walked into the hut. The human, meaning Kagome, lit the place aglow with her brilliant smile. Unknown to them it masked something more, though she didn't let it show.
She held Shippo with one arm as she flung her bag over to the corner the hut, Inuyasha lunging after it. She let a slight giggle escape before greeting the other's personally. Inuyasha just continued to rummage through the bag as if he owned it.
"Well hello, Sango has Miroku been misbehaving again" she said teasingly to the both of them seeing the bright red imprint on the perverted and persistent monk's face.
"Nothing that I could not handle" was the exterminator's response.
"and nothing that was not worth the punishment" The Houshi answered with a wide much to enjoying grin.
"And Kaede, anything happen to any villagers?" Kagome asked changing her tone from playful to professional
"No everything has been well, except for Inuyasha's insistent whining, could ye child feed him please" The old woman said the same instant Inuyasha came up to her with ramen.
She glanced out the window and saw darkness was about to set. She then nodded and continued to unpack the rest of the materials to make Inuyasha and the other's dinner. But knowing Shippo did not like ramen as much, and seeing as he was a child she always brought something special for him. This time it was two cone sushi and a candy bar. But he was deprived of his dinner until the ramen was ready. That was the usual flow of events.
But today Kagome seemed rather slow in making dinner. Inuyasha was getting all the more anxious. He thought she was doing it purposefully. As soon as everyone had their food Kagome sat down and just stirred hers. Like she stated to herself earlier she was not going to eat. But that would prove destructive. She offered her food up for grabs and Inuyasha was the ready to except it. He gulped it down in one big bite.
While Kagome gathered the dishes she felt dizziness overcome her and she fell. Leaving everybody speechless, or worried, or making a certain person have an 'I knew it look' trying to mask his obvious fear. The attempt failed miserably by the way.
AN: So how did you like it. It's a little more composed than the last one. I found it's easier to type fics than to write them out by hand. Anyway I have read so many cliffhangers it persuaded me to write one of my own. I know, I know, you wonder why they always have Kagome fainting. Well if it had Inuyasha fainting that would be pretty wierd. Wait a sec, that gives me an idea. I know all of you know what I mean so I will have to rush a side story. Nah!, too much trouble, i'll just put that 'fainting Inuyasha' idea up for grabs. First come first serve though.
I think in the last author's note I called it an AU. That would make no sense since I don't care for, if not hate any alternate universe fanfictions, unless they include me. I am not trying to put anyone down it's just 'I' prefer the original concept. Can't speak for everyone though shrugs. So you AU and crossover writers stand strong.
Actually scratch what I said in the beggining AN. I do have fans, if only 3. And I never knew reviews could make me so happy. Actually the first one made me a bit more motivated...to kick Cold Fire Pheonix's ass. Actually I thank you because you have helped me a lot. If you see no improvement sorry. Oh yeah, are he AN's longer than the story?--
Anyway can't tell you what's gonna happen in the next chapter because...well, I don't even know myself. Sad isn't it. Anyway that's what makes it all the more interesting. Next week is HCPS so I don't know, maybe not as many updates as I expected. Still I won't be as so mean as to put weeks between updates. That is if anyone ever discovers this story. How do you draw attention anyway. I already called on the number one person, Cataluna!
sigh the great one has not responded yet. So I will try to get out as many chapter's as I can before writer's block hits me (or reality, whichever comes first).
So again thank you for finding the strengh to read it and not collapse from the obvious begginers type descriptions and words. I hope I do not offend anyone with the wreaking smell my bad grammar and lack of thesaurusthough I do have an electronic dictionary handy by my side have caused, especially to those with sensitive noses like the hanyou I mention in the story. Oh yeah and Review people, I want review. I know I threatened the story but it's just too fun to go on.
