Chapter Seven: Letting it all go

Kagome had so many thoughts flying through her head as she ran from Yash's place, like the fact that he looked like a animal about to go for the kill just know when she saw him that predatory gleam lurking in his eyes, scared her and she had never ran so fast in her life. When she finally arrive in her room, she locked the door and splashed some cold water on her face trying to convince herself that she didn't see that and her tired mind was playing tricks on her, that she didn't see his eyes glow red, feel the malevolent presence, that made her want to run in terror away from the one man who she wanted to be friends and possibly more with. All her life Kagome was known for making bad choices involving men first with Kouga and now Yash, what was wrong with her, why couldn't she be like a normal teenage girl who didn't want to befriend the guys that people ignored, she always had to seek them out the loner types, the ones who always had a secret, she found out Koga was a wolf demon and he had a very violent temper, her eyes clouded over as she remembered that night, the night she discovered his secret. It was raining, Kagome had just had a fight with Kouga fort he one hundredth time, she saw him with another woman and immediately confronted him, he told her it wasn't what she thought and than before her eyes, he took off the necklace he always wore around his neck and grew a tail and ears like that of a dog, his eyes turned a predatory black, he leapt after her viciously sinking his teeth into the side of her neck, claiming her as his. Blood was everywhere, as Kagome stumbled to get away from the shocked demon who could only stare at her with what appeared to be hunger and guilt, taking that as her cue to try to leave she ran off into the night bleeding badly as she heard the lone howl of a injured wolf fading into the distance. After that he came at her with flowers, jewelry and begged her to let him back into her life, he was miserable without her and when she rejected him he followed her home and raped her in the street, in his demon form, she was limp and bloody as she grabbed the closes thing she could find and hit him over the head with and crawled to the nearest house to ask for help, a kindly old woman named Kaede helped her to heal and kept her safe until she could build up the strength to leave him, as she still had feelings for him even after what he had done, a part of her wanted to believe he was sorry and they could try and make it work. So being the idiot that she was she went back to him again and again, until finally she was half dead and she bandaged her bloody wounds the best she could while he was out hunting in his demon form and she packed up and left him never once looking back, but always fearful looking behind her back wherever she went.

End Flashback.

Kagome scolded herself for even trying to compare Yash to that lowly demon, sure he was a bit hard to talk to and he was very secretive. Sango told her that he never talked to them or anyone for that matter that he was very much a loner and kept to himself. That didn't mean that he was a monster, but no matter how hard she tried to convince herself that he wasn't the more she wanted to know what was going on with her neighbor.

Meanwhile Yash is licking the blood off his lips, from the hooker Kikyo who is pale and not breathing, but he is to wrapped up in his thoughts of Kagome to notice as he leaves the rusty old apartment that she lives in not once turning back.

It was morning and yash decided to pay a visit to Kikyo again something in his head told him something was wrong so he got up and dressed in his usual black pants with long sleeved red button down shirt and black boots and tying his long silver hair back, he got in his car and drove his car back to Kikyo's apartment finding her where he had left her lying on the bed she had no pulse and her body was cold, making a quick decision he set about the task of covering up the murder and satisfied he drove away, not even bothering to look back as the flames slowly disappeared into the distance.
