Inevitable

Chapter 8:

ThePrincess andthe Nap

Inuyasha was going towards the stupid demon (have you noticed that I don't exactly like Kouga?) when he suddenly scented MORE coming their way. Before he could reach Kagome, two brown-ish blurs sped past him.

"Kouga-sama!" The two exclaimed simultaneously.

A deep, throaty growl could be heard from Kouga, of who was obviously pissed at the two for ruining a moment. "WHAT!" he boomed. The two winced slightly at the tone of his voice before continuing.

"She's coming!" cried Ginta. (A/N: Can YOU guess who it is? LOL)

"We're sorry we couldn't stop her!" Hakaku chimed in.

"So we must go now!" the two chorused.

During this Kagome had been slowly inching towards Inuyasha, slightly surprised that she went unnoticed. She made it over towards him as he stood over her protectively. (A/N: He's pretty protective for a 10-year-old, no?)

"Who the hell are you two talking about! Who's coming! And why couldn't you stop her!" Kouga bellowed. (A/N: Not all that deeply of course. He's only 11. O.o)

"It's A-" they started, but were suddenly cut off.

A very loud "KOUGA-KUN!" rang throughout the surrounding area. Kagome and Inuyasha flattened their ears at the shrill cry.

"What the-…?" Kouga, Inuyasha, and Kagome questioned. They caught the scent of yet ANOTHER wolf demon. Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's shoulder in a protective manner and growled. However, Kouga –after a second- recognized the scent and muttered an almost inaudible "Oh shit…" The two, ten year olds –Ginta and Hakkaku- nearly wet themselves as they saw a familiar whirlwind in the distance. Kouga blue eyes widened even more as quickly turned to Kagome. "I'VE GOTTA GO! I STILL LOVE YOU AND I'LL BE BACK FOR YOU ONE DAY, KAGOME! JA!" and with that, the three wolf demons ran off with their tails between their legs. (literally) Our two little hanyou just stood there for a moment in a semi-daze.

……

……

……

"KOUGA!"

The other wolf demon -that they'd momentarily forgotten- was heard yet again, as they pressed their ears down to their skulls. "What the h-…?" was all Inuyasha got out before the demon burst into the clearing. The young wolf demon was obviously very angry. They didn't even really have to look at her because they could already smell the anger emitting from her. Her red hair pulled into two ponytails on the sides of her head, as a flower rested beside one. She had similar apparel to Kouga, except that it was white and obviously made for a girl (A/N: Well, yeah. Duh. -.-; ). Her hands were balled into fists on either side of her hips as she glared at the two before her.

"Where is he! I know he was here because his scent's still fresh!" the little redhead yelled. "Tell me!"

"Tell you where who is? Kouga?" Kagome asked innocently. At this, the girl stomped towards her, as Inuyasha growled.

"Of course! Who else!" she hissed.

That's when Inuyasha cut in. "Why would we tell you? Who the hell ARE you anyway!"

She rolled her eyes. "You mean you don't KNOW?"

Kagome almost rolled hers, but did not want to be mean. 'Well DUH. Why would he ask if he didn't know?'

"Well, even two stupid HALF-demons should know who I am." With this she was only rewarded with two glares and a growl. "Well," she sighed, as she crossed her arms across her chest, "guess not. I am Ayame! Princess of the Southern Mountain Ookami Clan! And I am here to find my promised mate, Kouga, Prince of the Northern Mountain Ookami Tribe! Now tell me where he is!"

Kagome silently pointed toward the direction that Kouga and the other two had fled. A small, evil-ish (A/N: yeah… I've been adding a lot of –ish nn;) smile crept onto her face. Without even thanking Kagome she took off once again. "KOUGA-KUN!" When she was out of sight, Kagome turned to Inuyasha. "Uhh…"

Inuyasha responded with "Feh."

"Err…Inu-chan?"

"C'mon! Let's go! 'cuz I'm STILL hungry!"

Kagome rolled her eyes. " M'kay. I'm coming." She said as she stood up.

"Besides we gotta bandage your arm anyway." Inuyasha muttered. Kagome's keen ears ,however, picked it up. A dazzling grin lit her features as she bounded after the retreating Inuyasha.

Five fish and a bandage later… (A/N: eh. e.O; I'm lazy. Leave me alone.)

Kagome poked her full stomach and yawned. "Inu-chan…" she murmured sleepily.

Inuyasha looked down from his perch in a tree. "What?" 'Is she ALREADY tired? Jeez.'

"Can I sleep with you?"

'EH!'

'Of course she can!' Inuyasha cursed the hentai voice in his head. He couldn't believe what it was saying! He was only ten! Then again…

'Not like that you dumbass.'

'You wish it was'

Inuyasha slightly blushed and ignored that last comment.

"Please?" Kagome whimpered from below.

Inuyasha once again cursed his soft side as he quickly agreed to her innocent plead. Kagome smiled tiredly as Inuyasha scooted over to make room for her. She leapt up to his branch of choice and almost lost her balance. Inuyasha saw this and his tiny claws grabbed a hold of her rough fuku and pulled her up. She mumbled a "thank you" before reclining against the tree. Inuyasha scooted over a smidget (A/N: haha! A smidget!) more to make some more room for her, before reclining next to her. After a minute, Kagome found the tree to be uncomfortable, so she subconsciously moved herself to a more comfortable spot- Inuyasha's lap. Inuyasha tensed at her sleep-induced actions before relaxing. He allowed a small genuine smile to cross his face as his little fangs poked out. (A/N: KAWAII! n.n ♥♥♥!) Wrapping his small-ish arms around her frame, he pulled her to his chest. Suddenly becoming tired, he rested his head atop of hers and lay back once again. As he was slipping into peaceful oblivion, he didn't notice that he had murmured his thoughts aloud. "I love you, my Kagome…." He never noticed the tiny smile that appeared on Kagome's lips.

End Chappie

Gah! Too much fluff! They're too young! It burns my eyes! This chapter was a little blah and kinda short. Actually, I was just being very lazy. n.n; I didn't even go back to edit it at all. Well, I usually forget, but today, I just didn't feel like it. And did you see all of the Author Notes I put in there? JEEZ! Tee hee! That little Ayame bit was for you Dragon Man 180! LOL. –yawn- I'm being consumed by my laziness! –falls asleep-…… -.o ? –yawn- Review plz. If you wish to flame, the torches are at your right, and kikyou is right down that hall. (Kouga too) If you review nicely, I might get off of my lazy butt to get you a mo0fin. …

…

…Then again, I might just sit and sleep here for the rest of the day. Whatever. LOL. Sayonara! -.-zzzZZZZ
