L-Lovers?

DISCLAIMER! I DON'T OWN INUYASHA!

"Master we must hurry before they do something to Kagome,"

"I'm sure she can handle herself, she's probably got them cleaning their cave," I shrugged. Myoga's eyes narrowed, "We can only hope, but if the rumors are to be believed the Thunder Brothers do not keep pretty young maidens long before devouring them." DEVOURING THEM!

Shippo seemed to read my mind, "Devouring them? Inuyasha, do suppose Kagome is....?" I scoffed, but something was eating at me from inside about this, "Ger real, didn't you hear him he said pretty young ladies." Shippo's eyes narrowed as well now, "Yeah but Kagome is pretty and brave and smart!"

I heard Myoga mumbling something then, "Isn't anyone going to ask my opinion?" Shippo was now freaking out, "Oh! This is all my fault! She's probably being eaten alive as we speak!" I felt my stomach twist at that, "Me thinks perhaps it's not too late!" Mumbled Myoga, but Shippo was still freaking out, "If it's not too much trouble could we continue the search? We might be able to get to Kagome before the Thunder Brothers get hungry."

I felt like throwing up now, I couldn't understand why I reacted this way though, "What's the rush? She ain't pretty so their definitely not going to go for her!" How am I lying through my teeth like this?!

"We could always take a vote, seeing as I have four hands instead of two I should be allowed to vote twice." I felt like squishing the little bug on my shoulder that instance but I was busying listening to Shippo freaking out again, "Oh! She'll come back and haunt me for this! I'm heard the legends and I know how it works!"

I could hear Myoga mumbling something about Kagome but right now thoughts of her body or worst ripped to shreds flashed before my eyes over and over, my whole body was filling with rage towards the Thunder Brothers now.

"Quit nagging I'm going! Alright! Stop yapping at me and just point the way to the evil brothers!"

That moment a large blue bolt of lightning descended from the sky, breaking apart the rock we stood on, throwing us all in different directions. I landed softly on the ground next to Kagome's stupid modern day contraption, Kami knows how much of a problem that thing is.

Another bolt was coming down, I grabbed Shippo and jumped to the side avoiding the electricity. I landed and unconsciously used my arm to shield both of us from the debris coming our way, then I looked up.

"Very impressive maneuver, dodging my lightning bolt, especially in light of your dull and boring conversation just now." I looked up to meet the face of the demon that tried to strike us down, "You must be the reputed Inuyasha himself."

I felt my gaze harden at the sight of this demon, "Master Inuyasha," Myoga whispered, "That is Hiten, the elder of the Thunder Brothers." Then Shippo jumped up onto my shoulder, "Where's Kagome?! What have you done with her?!"

Hiten seemed to chuckle at this, "Don't despair, we have done nothing to her as of yet, Mauten!" I looked over as a cloud moved it's way over towards Hiten, "Coming brother," I watched as he turned and then revealed Kagome, "Behold," Her eyes lightened as she spotted me, "Inuyasha!"

I felt my stomach unwind a little, "Kagome!" Well at least they haven't hurt her, yet....

Hiten chuckled again, "Judging by your expression it seems the girl spoke the truth, now hand over the fragments of the Shikon jewel to me, or you'll never see your lover alive again!" Lightning struck behind them and I felt my eyes widen, "S-see my lover?" I never thought about that before.

Could the feelings mean....that, that I......? No way!

"Uh, there must be some sort of misunderstanding, let me get this straight, you and I are suppose to be lovers?" I felt my cheeks heating up at the thought but I managed to push it back as she spun around, "T-this is no time to get all shy!" Then Mauten looked at Kagome and chuckled, "You little vixen, I knew you were fibbing!" I felt anger well up in my as I smelled the fear emanating off of Kagome and the arousal coming from Mauten.

"You actually think I'd hand over the jewel as a ransom to get you back?!" Fire flared in her eyes again and I had to resisted the urge to flinch back, "Of course you would!" Mauten looked like a scared kitten at this moment, "Because that's what a lover does!"

"Well we ain't lovers! And without love the whole argument kind of falls apart!" "So now some little jems are more important than me?! How dare you say that after all we've been through together! In the mean time you better admit to yourself how much you really love me!"

I stopped there and looked at her a moment, then I sighed inwardly.

Oh man, Kagome.....you may be right after all......
