Ch.2 forgiven to late
"People havvve hope…" a dark voice from behind her began, "…because they can't see death standing behiiiind them."
Kagome whirled around to see a giant demon with hands and legs of a praying mantis, and a body and head of an amphibian of some sort. She watched as it blinked its fish-like eyes and spread wide its mouth filled with piranha sharp teeth. She was about to yell for help when it grabbed her quickly with it's claws. Kagome screamed in pain for only an instant before her voice suddenly failed.
"Inu…Yasha…" she whispered before her voice completely failed her.
"Hehehehe…having tttrrrrouble my dear?" it cackled. "So sorrrry my venom disagrrrrees with you."
'So…it injected venom in me when it stabbed me with its claws…when it grabbed me…' (A/N- stating the obvious once again.) Kagome felt her eyelids getting heavy. She was starting to feel light headed and her struggling was getting feebler.
"Now, I'm goooing to make my self a nice enerrrrgy drink with you, but prrrromis you won't open your eye's. We don't want those prrrretty eyes of yours to get exposed to my acccciiiid." It hissed. Kagome could only wish she could scream and dream of a savior as the demon cackled evilly at her.

The incomplete group was in an awkward state around the fire. A demon slayer held a frantic kitsune kit in her lap convincing it that "This is just another silly fight" while the child counter with, "But she slapped him! And she looked really angry! Kagome's never looked that scary before! And you can still see the slap mark on him! She's never slapped him that hard!"
"Yeah, but she's sure done it to Miroku a few good times."
"That's not the same!"
The said monk was sitting and intently watching the furious half-demon next to him brood and swear occasionally under his breath. Miroku continued this awhile longer mulling over the precise words before he began. "Inuyasha…I-"
"Shut the hell up! I don't want to hear it ok!?" Inuyasha was still inwardly fuming. How dare she? Why the hell would she give a damn what he did? She didn't control him! His thoughts were interrupted for just then a short, but sharp scream pierced the dark night.
"Kagome!" they all said in an unlikely unison. Inuyasha forgot every thing. All of it was pushed to the back of his mind. All that mattered now was that Kagome, HIS Kagome, was screaming. Screaming in pain. Inuyasha jumped to his feet and dashed of at top speed without a second thought.
"You guys stay here!" Inuyasha practically growled as the rest of him disappeared into the forest for the second time this night. But this time, it wasn't for Kikyo; it was for his other, untold love.
Sango ignored the command to stay and grabbed her boomerang and was about to head off after Inuyasha when a hand firmly grasping her wrist stopped her. "Miroku let go! I don't care what Inuyasha says, I need to help Kagome!" She shouted, struggling in his grasp.
"Sango, I know this is hard for you and you don't want to lose another loved one, but I think we should stay." He replied, trying to sound calm.
"No! I can't stand to see another one go! Kohaku is bad enough!" She struggled harder in his grasp.
"Sango! Listen to me!" He grabbed her other wrist and pulled her close to face him. Sango looked at him like she was trying to gasp some hope in him. "Please, trust me, this is the only way they can forgive one another. Trust me." He coaxed.
Sango couldn't help it, the tears won. She threw herself against his chest, and cried as if shy was letting all her fear, anxiety and sadness out in each tear she shed. "It will be okay Sango." He said wrapping his arms around her, but in his mind added, 'As long as the demons not strong, …and I can control myself enough not to grope you.'(A/N- . sorry, just couldn't help myself!)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Kagome!" Inuyasha was so frantic to find her; he almost forgot to track her by sent. As he came closer, the stench of a fowl swamp demon joined hers. "Kagome! You better not die on me before you can apologies to me." He growled. (A/N- sigh…so simple minded. shakes head)
Inuyasha burst threw a large bush and came upon a upsetting seen. "Kagome!"
A/N- Ah ah ah! What kind of a writer would I be if I didn't try to keep you waiting for the next chapter hmm?
Kagome was in unimaginable pain Her whole body screamed in pain as her very skin was being burned off of her wreathing body. Kagome fainted from the pain for less then a second before being awoken by the same torture. Kagome did not head the warning of the demon and had her eye's wide open, she had closed them, but it only hurt more.
"Kagome!" the faint voice came to her ears as if she was under water.
Inuyasha?
Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha. Yep, I know it may come as a shock to you, me fitting the part so well and all, but sadly, it's not true. Thank you, that is all
