New chap! Sorry for the long time of getting these out like I said last chapter I've had no time but I hope you're enjoying the story so far the next few chapters will be split into parts.
"A black dog is the name given to a being found primarily in the folklores of the British Isles. The black dog is essentially a nocturnal apparition, often said to be associated with the Devil, and its appearance was regarded as a portent of death. It is generally supposed to be larger than a normal dog, and often has large, glowing eyes."
A large black dog sits outside the temple glaring at the window where the fox sits and growls before turning and jumping down the stairs and goes to the alley he stays in across the street 500 years I've waited...and this is where I'm stuck. Watching a house where my enemy is...with the girl who is rightfully mine! He snarls and looks at the shadow who opens the door in the alley "inuyasha...you silly dog what are you doing growling so loudly at this ungodly hour? Go hunt or something"
Inuyasha's ears go back and he snorts "perhaps...I should do my part while I wait." the shadow laughs
"good dog." the door closes and Inuyasha snaps his teeth I'm no good dog. Inuyasha rises and walks out of the alley and wanders the street and looks at two men who are holding a screaming woman down and he growls jumping up onto a trashcan and howls his glowing eyes burning
"Hey look it's a mutt!" the larger man laughs before hitting the struggling girl "quit squirming!"
the woman screams more and the smaller man looks at Inuyasha and the man steps back "I...It's a demon! It's P...Padfoot! f...from those legends!" the larger man smirks "yeah and I suppose you believe in the devil too? Sheesh kain."
Kain shakes his head "i...it's him! There's n...no normal d...dog that looks like that! Sain! Please let the girl go!"
Inuyasha howls again lightning flashing and he jumps down "It's too late for you. The bringer of death has arrived." the two men turn in fear the woman running away"
"Stupid mutt!" yells Sain "I'll end this demon for good!" he pulls a gun out and shoots at Inuyasha dropping his weapon when Inuyasha springs at him undamaged
Shippo jerks sitting up hearing a pained scream and Kagome wakes up looking at him "shippo? What's wrong?" she asks
he shakes his head getting up "you stay here...I heard someone scream"
Kagome grabs his arm "no...stay here...please"
Shippo sighs and jumps when the alarm goes off and Kagome turns it off sitting up "I have to wake up now...just stay here...we're safe..."
Shippo looks out the window "If you say so kagome"
We now interrupt this program with breaking news..two more people have been found dead this morning after what appears to be a brutal mauling. The culprit has yet to be found. A witness says that the two men were trying to rape then kill her when a large black dog from legends appeared and killed them. In other news blah blah blah.
Kagome looks at Shippo who's digging his now sharp claws into the couch and he stands up his tail twitching and he looks at her when she touches his arm "I'm escorting you to school. I have a bad feeling about this black dog..." Inuyasha...he's a murderer isn't he?
Kagome looks a Shippo concerned "Shippo? Are you okay? Do you need me to stay here?"
Shippo looks at Kagome and shakes his head "No...I can handle it...there are just a lot of things making me nervous..."
Kagome hugs him and kisses his chin and blushes when the warmth appears again and steps away "I'll be careful shippo"
he holds his hand out to her as she walks out and he sighs "right"
"so who's the new boy at your house? And what happened to your bad boy boyfriend?" Yuka asks.
Kagome shakes her head "Inuyasha is gone...he hurt me and I met Shippo...but he's not my boyfriend...he's a...close friend of mine..." the four walk down the street chattering quickly and Kagome sighs it's good to see these guys again..
Inuyasha growls and follows her friends and barks making Kagome turn to look at him and she screams "g...get away!" she stutters and her friends look at her strangely "what's wrong kags?" asks yuka and Kagome steps back again and gasps when a fox jumps onto the black dog "woah! Someone get their phone out! This fox is kicking serious butt!" the three girls pull their phones out and Kagome bites her lip Shippo please! Be careful!
Shippo growls and bites into Inuyasha's neck and yelps when he's thrown into a wall and stands back up growling I won't fall here! Shippo jumps at Inuyasha and bites his paw causing the black dog to run away. Shippo growls before going to Kagome and nuzzling into her arms and licks her hand when she strokes his fur.
"kagome are you telling us that this fox is yours?" yuka asks.
Kagome's face flushes "yeah...he...I found him as a cub a while back and his mother and father were killed by hunters...so I've kept him with me until he was better and when I tried to free him...he stayed...and so he follows me sometimes..." Shippo makes a sighing noise and nuzzles into Kagome and eri smiles "awww! He's so cute what's his name?"
"uh...shippo" Kagome blinks
Ayumi tilts her head slightly confused "he has the same name as your boyfriend?"
Kagome's face flushes when Shippo looks up at her "we- uh..." She jumps when her watch beeps "hey I just um...remembered I'd help grandpa! I'll see you!" she runs past her friends and stops panting at the shrine and looks at Shippo who changes back into a human and blinks "kagome?"
she smiles laughing "you kicked dog butt Shippo!"
he chuckles confused "yeah...well Inuyasha was threatening to hurt you!"
she smiles "well...thank you Shippo...I appreciate your protecting me..."
he hugs her "you're welcome.."
"how sweet...I think this sesshoumaru may throw up."
Shippo releases kagome looking at Sesshoumaru "sesshoumaru? What are you doing here?"
he smirks slightly "searching for the shadow obviously."
Kagome tilts her head "how did you get here? And where did you get those clothes?"
Sesshoumaru smirks "I bought them many years ago. I got here by waiting. I must say that your friends died peacefully...The monk and slayer had a child and so on...this..." a young boy steps out from behind sesshoumaru "is their grandson Jerome...he looks like the monk does he not?"
Shippo blinks and Kagome scratches her head "sooo...the shadow couldn't be slain?"
"this sesshoumaru is afraid so...the runt made things easy to find and kill things...but with him on the wrong side...things are hard to do..."
Kagome sighs "I suppose so.."
Sesshoumaru looks at Shippo who appears to have lost interest in the conversation and focus on Kagome and smiles
"I'll tell you what come down to my club tonight...yes, this sesshoumaru has lightened up since we last spoke 500 years ago, any way come down to this club" He hands Kagome a card "and we'll relax...things have been rather tense it seems..." Jerome looks at sesshomaru and tilts his head "lord sesshoumaru? Are we going back now?" sesshoumaru nods and turns to start walking and looks back "oh and wear something nice" he walks down the steps and Kagome looks at Shippo "that was...weird?" Kagome whispers and Shippo nods in agreement.
Shippo shifts uncomfortably in the black pair of jeans and shoes Ugh...so uncomfortable...why can't I have my tail out? Shippo looks at his feet I'm amazed I was able to transform just my feet "how do I look?" Shippo looks up and blinks at Kagome in the black tank top and tight jeans and suppresses a shiver "uh..." he clears his throat nervously "you look um...good Kagome" She smiles at him causing his face to heat up and she looks at him "okay Shippo...now to find you some clothes...something nice....but not too formal or Feudal.."
Shippo looks at his jeans and shirt and blinks "what's wrong with this?"
she shakes her head "they're girls clothes...you're just lucky souta had a shirt laying around otherwise you would have been wearing a bright pink tank top"
Shippo blinks "uh...yeah..I guess we can find some clothes" he stands up and follows him trying on the clothes Kagome gives him and looks at himself in a mirror wearing blue jeans and a dark blue muscle shirt and smiles "I like this one Kagome.."
she smiles and hugs him from behind looking at him "okay Shippo...we'll get you a few of these jeans...we'll go and buy shirts some other time...we got to get home so I can get ready and you can shower" Shippo tilts his head "shower?" Kagome laughs "my mom will help you...she helped..." Kagome sighs "she helped the dog...when he wasn't a demon..." Shippo moves to hug Kagome and whispers to her "kagome...he'll come back...we'll bring him back to his old self" Shippo smiles at her his eyes guarded so she's unable to see the hurt and he turns to look at himself in the mirror again.
Shippo looks at the door when Kagome's mother turns on the shower and walks out and then looks at the shower the water pouring out like a waterfall So it's like a waterfall...interesting Shippo sets the clothes Kagome bought him on the counter and removes the jeans and his shirt and steps into the shower and jumps in shock It's...warm? How bizarre! He smiles and lets the water hit his body picks up a sweet smelling shampoo and smells it It smells like Kagome he smiles and sets the bottle down and picks up the bottle Kagome's mother had told him to use and squirts some into his hand and lathers it into his hair Amazing! It bubbles! He chuckles and rinses and yelps when his eyes sting and he falls out of the bathtub with a loud thud It burns! Evil burning!
Kagome blinks hearing a thud in the bathroom huh? She stands up and opens the door and squeaks her face suddenly red closing her eyes tightly Ohmygodhe'snaked! "sh...shippo put a towel on yourself!"
"where's the towel?! I can't see my eyes are burning!" he grumbles and she tries to reach for a towel and knocks it onto him "put that on you!" she squeaks I just walked in on Shippo naked! My god she shakes her head and opens her eyes to see Shippo trying to rub his eyes while holding the towel around himself and sighs taking a dry rag and tightening his towel so it stays on and she rubs the soap out of his eyes "are you okay Shippo? You didn't hurt yourself falling did you?"
he winces as the stinging begins to go away "yeah...I didn't fall too hard..."
she giggles "you've been around me how long, and you still manage to get soap in your eyes"
his face flushes in embarrassment "hey! In my defense the soap snuck up on me!"
she smiles and touches his face looking him in the eyes "I'm sure it did Shippo..."
she steps back secretly checking him out and blinks blushing when he touches her cheek and she shivers when he lowers his voice "kagome...I need a little help drying off...could you help me?" he smirks at her and she blushes deeper.
"s...sure Shippo..." she stutters and goes to grab another towl and sees him sitting on her bed dressed in his jeans his soaking wet tail dripping onto the towel he was wearing and she blushes looking at his abs the many years of training clear in his muscles and she goes over to him and takes his tail and begins drying it and looks at Shippo when he grabs her wrist.
Shippo shivers as he pulls her into him kissing her deeply. And smirks when she responds a moment later, her body attempting to press into his own and he chuckles into the kiss the heat and lust building between them and his face flushes as he groans into her mouth causing her to moan in response,, their bodies grinding against each other trying to get as close as possible.
Shippo jumps backwards slamming his head against the wall when there is a sudden knocking at the door.
Kagome blushes standing up panting and looks at the door, throwing Shippo's shirt and jacket at him and she opens the door "Souta? What do you want? Stuck on a math problem or something?"
Souta shakes his head "no...I heard a strange groaning noise and was trying to figure out who was doing who...from the looks on your faces you two were obviously having an intimate moment" he smiles laughing "maybe we should get mom to get you a bigger bed so you can share with your boyfriend!" Kagome slams the door and sits at her desk her face red and Shippo pulls his jacket on and goes over to Kagome "kagome? What's a boyfriend? Everyone keeps calling me yours" Kagome blinks and looks at Shippo and smiles "don't worry about it Shippo..we have to get going...Sesshoumaru will be waiting for us..." he nods "yeah. Let's go." she looks at him and smiles "shippo..." she begins, "yeah Kagome?" he looks at her and she just shakes her head "n...Nothing..." he shrugs and moves towards the door I'm foolish...what if I really am using Shippo? She shakes her head and walks out the door ready to see what sesshoumaru has planned.
