(Kagomes POV)
Im so warm. I don't remember being this warm for a long time. Wait, why am I warm? Where am I? Opon thinking this, my eyes immedieatly flew open. It was dark, there was something in front of me. Right in front of me, too close. And breathing. I flung mysef backwards, trying to escape, but I was caught by something. Its their arm. Where the hell am I? But just as I was thinking this, they moved.

(Inuyashas POV)

I was startled awake by something moving beside me. Forcing my eyes open, I was met by the frieghtened stare of a girl as she tried to wrench herself away from me. Did I fall asleep with her like this? Raising my head, I looked down at her. She was still trying to get away, so I lifted my arm off of her. She fell backwards, landing on the cold stone floor, and gave a small squeak.

"Are you ok?" I asked, reaching out a hand to help her.

"Im fine, stay away from me." she snapped.

Sighing, I pulled my hand back and climed out of the "bed". Standing up, she stepped even further away from me.

"Come on, lets get you to Kaede, she'll take care of you." I said, shaking my head at her.

"Who is Kaede?" She asked. I stopped and started at her for a moment. Her voice was amazing, when she wasnt mad.

"I'll show you, come on." I said gruffly. "Whats your name?"

"Kagome" she said softly.

Thats a pretty name, I thought to myself. I walked to the door, which the gaurds proceeded to open. I walked through, my eyes on the floor, expecting her to follow. I could hear her timid footsteps as she walked. I led her through the many people waking up and getting ready to spend their day working, cooking, cleaning, or various other odd jobs. Breakfast was being served from the stove, so I led her there.

"Hey Sango. Whacha given me?" I demanded when we reached her.

"Well, for your friend, i've got a honey porrige, but for you, how bout a swift kick in the ass?" She replied sweetly.

"Keh. Gimme the food." I said, snagging two bowls and leading Kagome away.

"She seems...nice." Kagome hesitantly said.

"She is, I just like pissing her off." I told her with a cocky smile.

"You seem good at that." She said, arching a brow in my direction. "Where is this Kaede person you mentioned?"

"Oh yeah, shes over there. Come on, we better go see her before we eat."

Holding the bowls high so they wernt knocked into and spilled, I led her to the far end of the shallow cavern, where Kaede, who was kindof our doctor/supervisor set up shop.

"Is that ye, Inuyasha? Did ye get hurt again?" She asked, peering at me.

"Na, I came to check in and get you to take a look at this girl. Shes new." I knew that would explain everything. New people were always ruffed up before being brought in, to teach them their place and ensure they didnt fight back. And women...they never fared well here.

"Aye, a checkup is in order then. I'll take care of ye, young one. Whats yer name?" she asked kindly.

"Kagome." she replied simply.

"Kagome. Thats an unusual name. Come, child. Inuyasha, ye better be getting ready." she said over her shoulder as she led Kagome away. I nodded andd started to walk away, before realizing I still had two bowls in my hands. Shrugging, I handed the extra off to a random passerby, who thanked me. I found a rug next to a wall and sat down, leaning against it.

Who is she? And why did my demon react so strongly to her? I wonder why shes here. Suddenly i heard the sound of a loud smack. Curious, I turned to see what was going on, and saw Miroku laying on the ground, a fresh handprint across his cheek.

"You lecher! How many times do I have to tell you to watch your hands!?" Sango was standing above him, yelling. Looks like hes at it again.

"But Sango, I cant control them! They have a mind of their own!" he pleaded.

"Ha, like I havent heard that one before! Keep your hands to yourself!" She turned and stormed off. Laughing to himself, he got up, and walked over tot me.

"Oh, hey Inuyasha. You saw that, did you?" He said, rubbing his cheek.

"Yeah, ya perv. Ya should have learned by now to leave Sango alone." I said, finishing my food.

"And what about you, Inuyasha? I saw you with that girl this morning. Not bad, my friend, she was hot." He commented, having regained his joking manner.

"Its not like that ya perv, shes just a newbie I was helping out." I grumbled at him.

"Oh, so shes fair game? Thats great news!" He chuckled gleefully, rubbing his hands together.

"Just stay away from her!" I yelled at him. He looked frightened. I didnt know it at the time, but as I said it, my eyes flashed red for a moment.

"Alright, alright, calm down. I'll leave her alone then." He said, gesturing surrender. I just turned away and stared at the wall, my ears flattening against my head. Why was this girl affecting me so much?
