Summary: At the beginning she was the only one who can see him. He was her temperamental, stubborn and overprotective ghost half dog demon. Not to mention possessive as well. He has fifty days left. What did it mean? Who is after them and what do they want. "I don't give two hells if I'm dead Kagome. I'll protect you and that's a damn promise," he said.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Inuyasha!

In fifty days. What the hell does it mean? Damn it's givin me a headache, Inuyasha groaned and rubbed his temples. He trailed behind Kagome and Sango as they headed towards Kagome's home. It would sure make my day if the wench's grandfather threw salt at something like he did to the plant the other day, he grinned at the thought.
"Boy he sure is thinking long and hard about the whole fifty day's thing don't you think so too Kags?" Sango whispered to Kagome.
Inuyasha's ears twitched over hearing the conversation, he was only four feet away from them. No matter how low they whispered.
"Mhm, I think so too," Kagome whispered back.
"Do ya mind? I'm thinkin' here! a certain ghost hanyou shouted at them.
Kagome sighed,"Do you have to yell? We can hear you loud and clear mister I-have-super-hearing!" She said while looking at him over her shoulder.
"Keh," he said before mumbling the word 'wench' under his breath.
Oh for the love of gravy and fries. If they start fighting like cats and dogs...in this case half-demon versus human, all hell is let loose, Sango thought as she shook her head.
"Um, what do you guys think of the girl who died? That's kind of sad isn't it?" Sango said trying to prevent the fight that would soon commence.
"Right. The one that the Yuka and the others said who looked liked me." Kagome cringed.
Inuyasha smirked,"Scared Kagome?"
Kagome shot him a cold hard glare,"Shut. Up."
"So what do you think?" Sango asked Inuyasha. He shrugged,"Dunno. Don't care." She rolled her eyes at him. "Maybe the girl will go to you Kagome, since you're the one who can see ghosts," she said turning her gaze back to Kagome.
"M-me?" Kagome squeaked.
"Uh..Yeah. If you can see dog boy over there. Where ever he is, i'm sure you'll see the girl who died today," Sango retorted.
"Can we lose some of the name calling?!" Inuyasha shouted half infuriated and annoyed glaring at the brunette. "Oh there he is. Sorry Inuyasha i was just trying to see where you were. Depending on your reaction..." Sango looked over at Kagome but at the right side of her,"I'm pretty sure you right next to Kagome," Sango said.
Kagome looked at Inuyasha who was indeed next to her. "Keh, so what if I am," Inuyasha said as he began to walk away crossing the street.
Sango stood next to the raven haired girl,"Was he?"
"Yup," Kagome sighed then began to talk again.
"Inuyasha you are going the wrong way. My home is that way," Kagome pointed in the opposite direction in which he was going.
Inuyasha grumbled as he passed the girls,"I knew that." Kagome smiled as so did Sango. Sure you did, the raven haired girl thought.
When they finally reached the shrine, Sango had a face of relief then switched to horror. One look at the steps and Sango wanted to cry. "The world is out to get me!" she said falling to her knees, the stairs looked like they were never-ending. "Such a baby," Inuyasha muttered as he materialized away to meet them up top.
"One more word from his mouth and he wouldn't be in this world anymore," Sango said.
"C'mon Sango," Kagome said giving her a hopeful smile,"it's not that bad."
Eighty steps up the stairs later, Sango fell to the ground,"Not...that...bad," she gasped for air. The girls reached the top of the stairs. Sango was panting from exhaustion. It's the stair climb to hell I tell you! To Hell! Sango thought, thinking that her eyes will roll back in their sockets.
Kagome let out a nervous chuckle,"Hey I have to do it everyday."
Sango nodded,"I see...point...taken," she said still inhaling air into fill her lungs.
The two of them walked into the home. "Wow, nice. I never been to a shrine before. It feels cozy and...spiritual in here," Sango commented. "Thanks," Kagome said placing her and Sango's jacket onto the hanger by the door.
"Keh took you long enough," Inuyasha said as he floated in the air by Sango.
The sounds of footsteps walked towards them. "Demon!"
The next thing you knew, Kagome's grandfather threw salt at Sango's face. "GRANDPA!" Kagome shouted, trying to cover her mouth so she wouldn't laugh as well.
On the other hand, Inuyasha was laughing his head off. "Man that brightened my day!"
Sango's eye twitched, burning from the salt that was in her eye and the irritating hanyou who was choking on his own laughter in which she could hear loud and clear.
"Kagome, I sense a strong demonic aura from the girl," her grandfather said as he had another bottle ready that was uncapped and filled with salt.
Inuyasha you idiot. You stood behind Sango on purpose, Kagome thought as she glanced in Inuyasha's direction. In return he gave her an chaste look.
"Grandpa, this is my friend Sango...Sango this is my," Kagome gulped,"My grandfather."
Sango managed to smile between all the salt over her face,"Nice to meet you."
Kagome turned to her grandfather who was giving Sango a cold stare. "Grandpa. Sango isn't a demon. Stop your worrying," Kagome informed him as she lead Sango to the bathroom to help her cleaned up.
Minutes after the incident, Kagome waited outside while Sango was cleaning herself of the salt. She heard Sango call for her help since she had some salt in her eyes. "Okay, be right there," she said. Getting a cloth from her room and about to walk into the bathroom to help her friend she didn't look back at Inuyasha but she knew.
"Inuyasha wipe that grin off your face."
Inuyasha's satisfied grin turned into a frown. "Wench."
"I HEARD THAT!" the shout came from the bathroom, he grinned once more.
Sango laughed at Kagome, she could tell that she had her arms crossed and pouted like a five year old. "I'm no wench," she mumbled.
"I assume that ghost boy said that," Sango said as she rid her face of the salt. Finally, without any salt on her face, Sango looked at Kagome.
"What?"
"Nothing," Sango said plainly.
"Is there something you want to tell me?" Kagome asked.
Knowing that she had no choice she had to tell her,"Kagome, it's about Inuyasha," Sango began. Kagome arched a brow.
Inuyasha heard his name from inside and twitched his ears in the direction to get a better sense of hearing.
"What about him?" he heard.
Answer the damn question, he thought as he was getting impatient with all the reticent atmosphere.
"Uh..," she couldn't do it. No, they had to find out by themselves. "Do you like him?"
Inuyasha fell to the floor due to the fact that he was in mid air, pressing his ear against the door careful enough not to go through it.
"Did you hear something?" the both of them said at once.
xxxxx
"So, it is true of what I heard," a deep pernicious voice said from his room.
"Yes. I do not lie," a woman with black hair in a ponytail said, her red leery eyes looked around the area.
"I suspect you'll do a better job Miss. Yoshida, just deal with the new dispute we have now."
"You never call me by that name," said woman told the man before her.
"Alright then...Kagura, do as you wish and finish the job."
