Always Protect You
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Naruto, sadly.
Kagome watched with sad eyes as the blonde boy she had become friends with struggled to control the red chakre that seemed to engulf him. She wanted to help him with the pain, she could help him, but something was stopping her. Fear. Not of the Kyuubi, him she could easily control, after all, he grew up listening to her. But it was fear of being revealed.
How would she explain her powers and skills when she had already told everyone that she had none? She watched in morbid fascination as the chakre overtook Naruto and Shippo took control. Red eyes blazed as they turned to her. A slight nod of the kitsune's head was all she was given before he started to obliterate the Sound nin surrounding them.
She and Naruto had been returning to Konoha when at least thirty Sound nin appeared. Apparently, Orochimaru was having some trouble wit Sasuke, and wanted Naruto as a hostage to force him to do stuff. They threatened Kagome to try to get him to come quietly, but it only served to enrage her son. Shippo had forced control from her friend and was in the process of killing those who wished her harm.
Less than three minutes later, the shadowy form of her Shippo, covered in blood strode over to her. "Baka-teme, all of them…" He plopped down beside her and nuzzled her leg, smearing a little blood on her pale skin. "And before you say anything, no I did not spend too much time around Inu-baka." Kagome smiled affectionately and scratched his head.
"I didn't say anything, Ship." The nine-tails rolled his eyes and leaned into her touch. "Though you could watch your mouth."
Shippo laughed and reached up to kiss her cheek. "I gotta go. See you later, Kaa-chan." Kagome nodded, smiling. As his chakre and control slipped away, Naruto's cerulean eyes faded from the red and closed. Kagome caught his bloody form, though she knew that none of the blood was his own, before it fell to the ground and kneeled down with his head in her lap. ANBU would be coming soon since they no doubt felt the huge amount of chakre that Shippo had given off.
"Kagome-chan…" She looked down at the blonde boy in her lap. "I'll… always protect you…"
"Shh… I know, Naruto-kun." She also knew that his protectiveness of her was definitely a side effect of her son. "Rest; I'm safe now." The boy fell back to unconsciousness with a smile on his face. I'll have to tell Shippo to take it easy next time; it's already a lot of stress on his body.
ANBU arrived then, surveying the area and the damage. "Miss Higurashi, are you alright?"
Kagome lifted her head with a smile. "Un. Naruto promised to protect me."
AN: A short little drabble. Fun. I hope you all enjoyed it, and please give me ideas for drabbles or oneshots, even if it's just a word you want me to focus on. It'll help. Thanks a lot!
