Inuyasha : Kagome's heart

Trapped

Kagome's POV

I panted , out of breath and energy . Stupid Inuyasha . That dog demon never quits . I rested my a lake . Panting even more. My head and back leaned against a tree.

Dam that mutt!

My feet ached to the point I wanted to chop them off with my daggers . The bow and arrows stabbed into my back . But I didn't care .

The jewel shards in my bra glew a light purple . I took one out . It was flashing .

My heart pounded harder then I ever did before .

And image flashed into my head . Calling me .

I got up and travelled on ..

Inuyasha's POV

When I woke up I saw Kouga face looking at mine .

"Hay , your finally awake," he said calmly .

My bones still ached , it felt like my skin was on fire . I was laid down next to something hard and cold . Turned around , it was a huge chunk of ice , wrapped around my arm , I looked at Kouga .

"Your arm was injured , badly," he explained . His tone seemed worried and concerned . I heard the noise of a water flowing , it was relaxing . The place smelled sweet and was quiet , minus the water flowing .

"Where are we?," I asked .

"behind a cave," he said simply . I heard footsteps . A little girl grabbed Kouga's arm and laughed .

"Oh .., mister Inuyasha ,your finally awake," giggled the girl .

"who , who are you," I asked in a weak voice .

She giggled again . "I'm Ally," she smiled . Tugging Kouga's arm , she sent him off to get something .

"your injured quite badly , mister," she said . "I'm going to start healing you," she said putting her hands over my chest .

"Why couldn't you of healed me before?," I croaked .

"I can only heal people when there conscious," she laughed . Her voice was high pitched and cheerful .

"What?," I asked confused . I sniffed the air . She wasn't human , her scent wasn't the same .

A green beam shimmered out of her hand and glided across my chest . My chest started to tingle.

"What are you?," I asked amazed .

"A river demon , silly," she replied .

Sparks appeared across my chest , flicking around my abs , sealing up the cuts . The grazes slowly disappeared . It tingled even more .

She giggled again . "You took quiet a fall," she added . "Be thankful Kouga saved you" She blushed after she said his name .

Kouga reappeared with Ginta and Hakkaku . They were holding a bunch of leaves , holding bottles of water .

"What are those for?," I asked .

They placed the items near the block of ice , smiling .

"great! You got all of the ingredients," she praised them .

She stopped the healing . Leaving a large wound on my peck unhealed . Ally carefully placed a leaf on my wound , while Kouga craved some ice off . The leaf was cold , I shivered a bit .

"Good," she commented . She looked focused . Kouga handed her a small chunk of ice . Popping the ice on the leaf she continued healing me again .

This time it was faster . The ice melted onto the leaf , while the wound was sealed up .

"Now turn over on your back," she demanded . I did as she said .

"Wow , you have a lot of cuts and grazes," she gasped .

She applied the same routine to my back and was done instantly . After Kouga explained the news he found out , with Ally clutching his arm .

"What ?!" I exclaimed "I new child? Naraku ?," I gasped .

He nodded . "And you were chasing it," he said simply .

My brain jumped back and forth .

"Wait , how do you know?," I asked , not meaning to sound rude . "I couldn't pick the child's scent when I was chasing it"

Kouga hummed deeply . "Ally," he said simply . "she knew who you were chasing"

He rubbed her hair , gently . She turned away and blushed , deeply . "But the thing is inuyasha," he said awkwardly . "Can't tell us exactly who you were chasing"

I looked at him , confused . "What?," I didn't fully comprehend was he was saying . For some reason I felt he wasn't telling the truth .

"She only knows what people speaking about," he sighed , looking back at me . "Like rumours or convocations" he explained .

"What?,"

"My great grand father is 'the one who hears things'" she said .

I sighed . "so you only know what you here," I repeated . "Well what have you heard about Kira?"

Kouga shook his head . "I already asked her : nothing . I asked her about Naraku and she said he only recently told a few people about the new child . There's not much information," he explained . His eyes kept on turning to Ally .

Ginta and Hakkaku were sleeping against each other : back to back .

"What info did you hear?," I asked referring to Naraku .

"His hiding deep in the South." he said flatly . He rubbed Ally's hair again this time more gentle .

I sat up watching them for a second . Kouga caught my eye and stopped for a quick second .

"So what are we going to do ?Our plan was put on delay cause.." his voice trailed off . Eyes turning back to Ally .

"yeah ,.." I agreed . "We can still continue the plan . But we , I have to be more careful . But faster this time," I explained .

He nodded . "Before we do that," his voice sounded distracted "should we leave them here or take them with us?," he asked . I had a strong feeling he was talking about Ally . I was about to roll my eyes when I stopped my self . "Leave 'em here there safer here any way," I said . He nodded , knowing I was talking about Ally .

I could see how attached he was to her . His eyes and body reluctantly departed from her when we left the cave .

Kagome's POV .

I was weak . I had no choice . I released my scent across the environment . Slowly , but surely I felt my energy come back too me .

It was so strong , I could smell it . It was a extremely sweet smell , almost similar to the smell of strawberries . Yum .

Minutes later I gathered enough energy to stand . Taking advantage of this I collected my things . Concealing my scent up again . Making my way , following another Jewel shard ….

Kouga's POV .

Two things were on my mind .

Kagome , who's scent I could pick up easily as I skipped another high tree branch .

Two : Ally . She was alone , well not really but still . I regretted leaving her behind . But she wouldn't be safe with me and Inuyasha if we brought her with us . She might be safe with Sango and the others .

I was taking a fifty , fifty chance leaving her with Ginta and Hakkaku : something I would usually done .

"Inuyasha," I called across the forest .

He shouted back .

"She's close , I can smell her," I said , speeding up .

"Yeah , me too," he called , catching up .

A tree had her scent spurred all over it . It means one thing . Kira's getting weak . Her scent was only on the tree , it disappeared after that .

Inuyasha sniffed the air . "Hmpf . I can't find her scent anyway where , dam it!," he exclaimed .

No Da , I thought .

"We should split up," I announced . "It'll be easier to find her that way"

"Meet back here , before sun down" he demanded . I nodded .

Set off in the East , while he went South .

Jumped a couple of branches ,skidded a couple of trees . Couldn't fond one strand of Kagome's scent .

Kagome , where the hell are you ?

Sped across the ground , catching up my speed .

Slid past a town or two on my way until I reached a major town and decided to do some damage .

Bashed my foot into a couple of roofs . Skidded off a few roof tops leaving some scars . Lots of the towns people ran , screaming out the town . Perfect , I needed the word to spread that I was here . To let Naraku and Kira know , since their family .

Kagome's POV

I heard a combustion of noises come from far away : screams , 'bangs' . I was going to check it out but I was busy .

I circled the demon twice , before pouncing on it . It's legs sprang up catching me . Stabbed one of my purifying arrows in its back , watching it squirm .

Rippp. Crack .

Recovered yet another shard .

But what was this ?

Six shards coming at me slowly . Inuyasha .

Luckily I had already planned for this . Sped west , zipping down the hills and towns . And back somewhere familiar ….

Inuyasha's POV .

She was turning west . I followed her . It took me time to catch up . Thankfully she lead a trail .

Caught Kouga's scent . Tailed it to the town he was in . Saw him sitting on a roof . He looked up when he caught my scent .

"I know where she's going!," I announced . That was enough for him to follow me without question .

Past another three towns . We sped up , getting more anxious to fight . The trail as getting thicker .

The forest and bushes seemed to be getting thicker . We jumped on tree branches again , following the trail from there .

Kouga moved more quickly and silently than before . I saw a deep anxiety in his eyes , just as much as depression and anger coiled up , randomly .

We were coming closer and closer to HQ .

But nothing would prepare me for what I saw ….

Kagome's POV

Finally they came . It would be a very good show if the key actors wouldn't of shown up . I gripped Sango tighter . My legs twisted around her so she wouldn't escape . She exhaled sharply again , her entire body shaking .

Inuyasha and Kouga stood in front of me shocked : just the way I like it .

Deepened the sound of my voice .

"Let her go Kira!," Inuyasha yelled out raged .

Excellent , Ayumi done her job . Now , this could really be a show .

I chuckled , placing the dagger deeper into Sango's neck .

She groaned .

"Kira , put her done . This has nothing to do with her!," Echoed Kouga . That was a bit unexpected , but still …

I chuckled again . Knowing this will aggravate inuyasha . And it did . He slashed out his sword .

"Unless you want her to die I suggest you drop all your weapons , demon," I said calmly . I knew Inuyasha too well . He did drop his sword , then slowly looked at Miruko in sadness . I thought I might as well toy with him .

"He wasn't hard to fight , but then again his weak," I added in a arrogant tone .

"Why you …" he growled .

"Hay , wolf , I said drop your weapons," I repeated . I know Kouga has never used his sword but I had to act like I didn't know him . He growled at me , then dropped his sword down on the floor.

"We done what you said now , let her and Kagome go!," Inuyasha demanded .

He thought I was captured ? What an idiot ! But I did play all long .

"Jewel shards," I commanded , ignoring him .

"Where's Kagome ?!," he shouted .

"Had over the jewel shards or both of them will die," I said calmly , but darkly .

He stammered . "Where is Kagome!," he asked again .

"She's safe and will be returned to you , if you do what I say," I said slowly . My mask was getting a bit heavy .

He looked at Kouga , not knowing what to do .

Sango tried to reach her hand dagger that I taken away from her . I tightened my grip around her neck ever more . "Try it and he dies," I threatened , referring to Miruko . She froze , I said that in my most serious voice . Her hand shock for a quick second before it returned by her side .

Inuyasha had sort out some dumb plan with Kouga .

He picked up his Tetsusaiga .

"Wolf , he attacks me and your comrades die," I said flatly .

Kouga froze . I knew that would get to him . Their the only things his got left , over than his self .

"Inuyasha , stand down," Kouga warned him .

"Kouga , she's bluffing . No way can she kill them when she's got Sango with her," Inuyasha said , preparing the backlash wave .

"Let him try , if you want to risk it," I said slyly . Taking risk is one thing Kouga never goes .

He sniffed the air , he froze . Kouga smelt the scorpion poison on his mates .

"You , bitch! What have you done?!," He didn't take a step forward risking getting hurt , but he could see the poison on their skins .

"Poison," I said simply . Chuckling , lightly .

He scowled me from a distance . Inuyasha could smell the poison .

"Kouga," he called . "my friend can take the poison out of them , don't worry,"

I laughed again , he wasn't thinking straight . Perfect .

"But , Kagome.." Kouga said .

"We'll find her after , she's dead," he explained . I see they already found out I could mask my scent . That's one better .

"Sango , don't worry , you'll be safe soon enough!," Yelled inuyasha . Kouga stepped make .

Inuyasha performed the backlash wave , to my expectance and joy . I jumped out of the way before Miruko's Sunga-cloth activated . Sunga - means to deflect and demonic aura . The backlash wave roasted the both of them . Dropped Sango down from the midair , paralysing her . Inuyasha and Kouga were both knocked out . I collected Inuyasha's shards and left them , defenceless . But I was nice enough to put up Miruko's demon barrier around them , so they were slightly protected ….
