Journey -Chapter12

..........................

Kagome groaned awake when something hit her on the head. She opened her eyes then blinked against the bright light that shined down through the trees. She looked to see what hit her on the head and saw a green apple in her lap. She gave it a confused look. They weren't under an apple tree last night. Were they under a apple tree last night? Is there even a apple tree in the palace gardens? No they were under a Cherry Blosson tree. Not apple.

Kagome tried to get up but she was roughly pulled back down by two strong arms. She looked behind her and saw Inuyasha sleeping peacefully. She tried again only to get pulled down once again and his hold on her tightened.

"Sleep Kagome..." He mumbled in his sleep.

"Inuyasha...I don't think were at the palace anymore." Kagome told him while trying to pry his arms off. Finally he cracked an eye open.

"What are you...about?" Inuyasha sniffed the air and looked around them and found no familiar scent or familiar scenery that was around him. He stood up and placed Kagome on the ground next to him and held her close as he looked around them.

Eveywhere around them was tree's and wild flowers. They were under the only apple tree in the entire forest.

"Where are we?" Kagome asked looking around them.

"I don't know." Inuyasha answered while still looking around. "I'm not even sure if we're at the castle or any where near it."

"Your joking right?" Kagome asked him.

"I wish I was koi." Inuyasha replied. Suddenly he got an idea. "Stay here, I'm going to look to see if I can find anything." Inuyasha gave her a quick peck on the cheek then jumped on a tree branch that was above them.

Once Inuyasha was the top of the trees, he scanned the area for anything trace of the castle. He found nothing ofcourse. He sighed as he closed his eyes.

"AHHHHH!" That made his eyes snap open and jump down and get in front of Kagome's protectively with his hand on his swords hilt. He looked around him for danger.

He didn't sense any or smell any danger.

Kagome sighed in relief when Inuyasha came in front of her. She giggled when his crouch softed up and he stood. He gave her a questionable look.

"Why did you scream?" Inuyasha asked her.

Kagome gave him an innocent look.

"Because I saw a bug." Kagome told him. She smiled at him. "But you killed it. Thank you." She hugged him.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes as he wrapped his arms around her waist. Sure she scared the hell of him by screaming. But that didn't matter as long as she was happy. He wanted to make her happy.

He chuckled. "Your welcome, koi."

As long as she was happy, he was happy. (Rolls eyes) He kissed her forehead.

"Did you see anything?" Kagome asked him. He sighed.

"No." Inuyasha told her while rubbing her back. "The castle is too far away even for my vision."

"Oh." Kagome's tone was sad.

"Don't worry koibito." Inuyasha told her then kissed her cheek. "We'll find a way to get home again."

"I know we will." Kagome told him while leaning into his chest. "I'm just wondering how long it will take us to get home."

"I don't know. We got to figure out where we are at first though."

"Can you smell a village from her? Or are we somewhere in the country?"

Inuyasha sniffed the air and caught the faint scent of smoke.

"I think so. I just smell smoke."

"Well lets go see where it will lead us too."

"Okay. Whatever you say." Inuyasha told her as they began walking towards the smoke's scent.

(Sometime later)

Kagome and Inuyasha sighed as they walked through the dark green forest. They've been walking for three hours and haven't found anything. Not even an old fire pit. But the scent of fire was growing stronger. Inuyasha could now smell raw meat, flowers, vegtables, and lots of people.

"I think we're coming to a village." Inuyasha told her as they continued walking.

Kagome's face was hopeful.

"Really?" She asked excitiedly. Inuyasha chuckled at her reaction.

"Yep." Inuyasha replied. "It shouldn't be too far from here."

"Yay!" Kagome cheered.

"All right already I get it. Your happy." Inuyasha smiled.

"I'm more than happy, koi." Kagome batted her eyelashes at him. Inuyasha put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to him and kissed her forehead.

Up ahead they could see a bright light (Don't walk into the light!!!). Inuyasha smiled at Kagome as they continued to walk. Before they emerged from the forest and into the light, Kagome's hand scraped against a thorn the was on the vines that were going up the trees. She didn't even notice it.

Inuyasha sniffed a minute later and gave Kagome a confused look.

"What?" She asked when she noticed his stare.

"Are you bleeding?" Inuyasha sniffed her again and smelled her blood. It wasn't a lot. But it was still enough to make him a little bit edgy.

"No I don't think I am. Why?" Kagome said to him. Inuyasha took her now bleeding hand and showed it to her. "Oh. How did that happen?"

"You probably scraped it against those thorns back there." Inuyasha told her while pointing towards the thorns that were behind them then brought her hand to his mouth and cleaned her cut. With his tongue. Kagome blushed when she felt his tongue on her cut. When he pulled away, it was gone. All you could see was a little scar.

"Thank you, koi." Kagome said to Inuyasha after she realized what he did. She stood up on her tip-toes and kissed him on the lips. Inuyasha kissed her back.

"Your welcome koibito." Inuyasha replied then kissed her again. Inuyasha took her hand, after they finished their kiss, and led her through the forest and into a small village with people wandering all over. Women carried baskets and children in their hands. Men carried logs to and from little huts. Eveyone was cheerful in their dark and light brown tunics with matching dark and light brown trousers and skirts.

They just seemed cheerful. Everyone was talking cheerfully to one another and waving to each other. It was a cute and small. The huts were a brown color and warm. (The color was).

"Pardon me sir." Kagome called out to a man that was carrying a bag.. He turned to her.

"Yes miss?" He asked her.

"What is the name of this village?" She asked.

"You are in the village of Kai Namo (Made up city)." The man told her.

"Thank you sir." Kagome told him. He walked away, going back to what he was doing before the interruption.

"Kai Namo, I don't think I've ever heard of that village or name before." Inuyasha told Kagome.

"I have." Kagome replied. "My father used to come here for important business when I was little. I don't know how long it will take us to get back to the castle though."

"Well lets see if anyone has a map that we can look at." Inuyasha told Kagome while wrapping his arm around her waist when some young village men were looking at her intently.

"Okay." Kagome replied while Inuyasha was leading her towards what looked like a tavern bar. Once they got to the tavern bar, Inuyasha led her to a table that was on the far side of it.

"Welcome to Tammy's Tavern Bar, what can I get for you two?" A woman asked them in a gruff voice.

"Do you have a map by chance?" Kagome asked the woman. The woman thought for a minute.

"Yes we do." The woman replied. "Would you like to see it?"

"Yes please." Kagome told her and she turned around and headed back to where she came from. (Not to her mom I hope).

"If we do find out how long it going to take us to get back, how are we going to get there?" Inuyasha asked Kagome as they waited for the woman to return.

"Walk or if we are lucky enough, horses." Kagome replied then looked around the bar. A group of men caught her interest.

"Did you guys hear," The guy told his buddies. "The princess is missing. The rumors are she ranaway with her bodyguard thats a half breed. They say they were in love with each other and they planned it. They plan to get married." Kagome raised an eyebrow.

"Really," One of the other guys replied. "I thought she ranaway with her bodyguard because she wanted to get out of the marriage with Prince Hojo." Kagome raised both of her eyebrows.

"I think when or if they are found," The third guy started, "They should be hanged in front of the entire kingdom for the treason they've committed." Kagome growled and Inuyasha put a hand over hers.

Finally, before they could hear the rest of the conversation, the woman returned with the map and set it down in front of them.

"Would you like some water?" She asked.

"No thanks." Inuyasha told her then she turned away. Kagome rolled the map out on the table and looked it over. Inuyasha sat by her as she looked at it and followed the faded lines with her fingers.

"From where we are," Kagome started while still looking at the map. Her gaze on a large spot of black ink. "I think we could be back to the castle in about three weeks. If we're lucky."

"I think we could make it in two and a half weeks with me." Inuyasha replied while also looking at the large black spot. "Less even."

"And we have to do is go northwest and we'll be home." Kagome finished. Kagome thought for a second. "But I think we might have to change our appearance so we don't get caught before we even get there."

"Yes I think so too." Inuyasha agreed with her. "I don't think you'll be wanting to walk around in your dress for less than a month."

Kagome giggled. "No I don't."

"Well lets get goig now shall we?" Inuyasha asked her while standing up and offering his hand to her.

"Yes we shall." Kagome took his hand and he pulled her up and into his arms. Inuyasha kissed her on the lips. She kissed him back then they pulled away, but Inuyasha kept his arm around her waist as he led her outside.
