Chapter 8: Change of the Tide

2 weeks after gaining Kagome back into their group…

Inuyasha jumped at the low class youkai that held their attention for the moment. His tetsaiga clashed down on the caterpillar youkai and with a final blow, it laid defeated. Kagome held onto Shippo while nursing a slash on her mid drift and arm. She set herself down on the ground, sighing.

"Mamma! You're hurt!" Shippo cried out in distress.

"No, don't worry about it. Is everyone else all right?" Kagome asked with a soft smile, so as not to worry her kitsuke. She covered her stomach wound and looked around. Miroku was helping Sango up, and Kirara was back in her kitten form. Inuyasha was cleaning his tetsaiga off in the grasses as sweat dripped from the end of his nose. The heat was sweltering, and all this activity was a bad thing. Everyone was covered head to toe in sweat.

Letting Shippo slide off her lap to go see if Kirara was okay, Kagome slowly got to her feet, the movement reopening the wound in her side and spilling more blood onto her school uniform. `This is going to take forever to get out…' Kagome whimpered as her arm drained more blood onto her clothes.

"Kagome!!" Inuyasha was at her side. "You should've told me you were injured!!" His voice was angry, but worried at the same time. Kagome looked at him, confused.

"It's nothing, really, Inuyasha," Kagome put her hand over her stomach wound and looked at the others. "I think we should find a nice river and cool off for the rest of today, what do you guys think?"

"It sounds like a good idea, but maybe you should get patched first," Sango stated softly. Kagome nodded and the two women left the men in the clearing to clean up Kagome's wounds.

Later that afternoon…

The heat had inclined even more so by the time the group had found a cool river to rest in. Inuyasha and Miroku were threatened with death threats by the women and had to stay on the other side of a large boulder. Kagome sat with Sango as they talked about Inuyasha and Miroku. Kagome nudged her friend in the side as her face turned red when Kagome asked about her and Miroku. It seemed like everything was normal…that nothing bad had ever happened.

Unfortunately, because of the heat, many demons got the idea of a nice cool river to relieve the heat as well. So, if the heat wasn't bad enough, suddenly, the women were cut off from Inuyasha and Miroku by youkai men, who took them from the river and made off with them.

"SANGO!" Miroku's cry carried over the harsh laughing and stomping feet of the bull and horse youkai. Inuyasha slashed at the last few youkai before the rest of the herd ran off with the women.

"Damnit!" Inuyasha yelled as he and Miroku hurried to get the clothes and catch up with them.

~WARNING!! RAPE SITUATION LEMON AND SWEARING~

Within the herd…

"Aww, Can't I just have the pretty one?" A heavily husky voice asked as the others laughed. The horse youkai looked like an European centaur, half-horse, half-man. His black horse fur was rugged and dusty with dried mud and blood.

"You know what Boss said. No one can touch the women until he gets them both," a heavily muscular bull youkai snorted, obviously the leader. The other men sneered at the cowering women, who, without their weapons were powerless.

"Good Work, my slaves," A familiar male voice called over the herd, as it shifted and a white baboon stood at the head of the herd. "These are indeed the women I promised you…do enjoy as much of them as you like." With that he disappeared.

"Naraku?" Sango whispered to Kagome. Kagome nodded, paralyzed with fear from the sudden look of lust on all the youkai's faces.

"This isn't a good thing…" Kagome whispered as the horse youkai that had been pawing at Kagome earlier grabbed her by her waist and hauled her into his chest.

"It's a good thing this one wears whore clothing, I can't wait to get inside her!" He proclaimed, tearing off Kagome's blouse. Kagome screamed, pushing away from him. Suddenly he dropped her, laughing. She tried to run to Sango, but Sango was in the same trouble she was. Sango was desperately trying to fight off the men with her hands, but one of the bull youkai grabbed her by the hips and held her open to the others.

Kagome felt pain down her back and her bra became loose, falling off her. She turned red as red could be as she covered up. `Sesshoumaru…'

Sango was thrown forward, dressed on only her white undergarment robe. The men's laughter was ringing in her ears, tears were in her eyes as she felt a man groping her chest.

"They're not marked, so open prey to all!" A man called out. Laughter followed.

"Fuck away, Mishogau!" one of the bull youkai called out.

Kagome was pulled back, her skirt left where she had been standing and she felt herself being bent forward. Tears streamed down her face as she felt one of the youkai grow closer to her.

Suddenly, screams of pain met her ears. `SANGO!' Kagome's worry for her friend made her tremble. But then she realized that the scream was a male scream. The herd was scattering, stampeding away as more death came to the hentai youkai. Kagome fell forward into the dirt, wrapping her arms around her and scrambling to find Sango. Sango was only a few feet away, sprawled on the earth. Kagome tried to crawl to her, but was suddenly picked up and brought straight up, away from the stampede. Kagome cried out, and struggled, but a familiar growl made her stop moving. A warm furry thing wrapped around her, covering her vulnerable body and shielding her from the eyes of any remaining youkai. Darkness overtook her as she clutched onto the warm body of her savior.

Waking…

Kagome woke to find herself in a warm futon, it was night out and the heat had disappeared. She felt warmth on her back and rolled into it, wanted to feel safe and protected. Arms encircled her waist and pulled her into a protective embrace. Wait…Arms? Embrace? Kagome trembled, afraid to open her eyes.

"Kagome…Do not fear, the bull and horse herd has been destroyed," a familiar voice whispered in her ear. She opened her eyes and looked up and the warm sun orbs looking down at her.

"Sesshoumaru?" (AN: oooooh bet ya'll thought it was Inuyasha!!)

He sat up, moving out of her grasp and sat in a chair by the side of the bed.

"Relax now, Kagome. Sango is doing well. That monk has sworn not to leave her side, and my dear half-brother has decided to post guard in the hall…for whatever reason. Possibly because he does not trust my house." Only when Sesshoumaru dawned his emotionless mask did Kagome notice he had emotions flooding in his eyes. She had seen fear, worry, and other emotions play over his beautiful face before his mask was drawn up. The door opened and Inuyasha came in with a tray that he had taken from a servant girl. He stopped when he saw Sesshoumaru sitting by HIS Kagome. He growled a warning to his brother, who stood and left before any curses could be spoken.

Kagome pulled her blankets up further.

"What happened?" She demanded, weakly. Inuyasha kept quiet, looking at her, then he carried the tray and set it by her knees.

"You and Sango were taken by the bull and horse youkai herd formed by Naraku. They each were going to rape you both, then kill you." Kagome shut her eyes, remembering the hands over her. Inuyasha put a hand on her cheek. "I've already thanked Sesshoumaru for being there first…though I wish it was me protecting you." He grumbled something. Kagome looked at the food and felt sick. She couldn't get the feeling of the men's hands off her. They had almost taken her only seriously protected part of her life. She wanted to die. Their hands…everywhere all over her. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she stared at the blankets.

Inuyasha's head bulted upright.

"Oh, Kagome…please…please don't cry. It'll be okay. They didn't rape you…"

"But they almost did…they touched me everywhere…ripped my clothes…broke my dignity and pride…" Kagome whimpered, crying. Inuyasha didn't move to hug her. He staid where he was, watching her sob. How could he comfort her now? She probably would never want to be touched again.

`Why won't he comfort me? I need to be held by someone who cares!! He doesn't care…he doesn't care about me at all!' Kagome thought. She choked her tears back and turned from him, the food falling to the floor.

"Go away, Inuyasha…"

Outside her door, Sesshoumaru growled. `How dare Inuyasha not comfort her? Kagome was in love with him, so why doesn't he comfort her?!' Sesshoumaru growled and moved off down the hallway as Inuyasha had come to the door to leave her alone.

By Sango…

Sango rolled over into the awaiting arms of the monk. She cried into his shoulder as she held onto him, whispering that she almost lost what she had saved for her first love. Miroku cradled her against him and rubbed her back comfortingly.

"Miroku…" Sango sobbed and clutched him tighter. Miroku put his cheek on the side of her head and held her tightly.

"Gomenasai… I couldn't be there sooner, Sango… I've never seen Kirara fly so fast, nor Inuyasha run as fast as he did… Had I the ability to keep up like them, I would have run till I broke my legs trying to reach you." Miroku lightly kissed her head. "Sango…I love you…If I could, I would destroy every other man that would cause you pain just to save you from any more that you would ever have to deal with."

Sango stiffened. `Did he just confess his love for me?' Miroku took her stiffness as a bad sign and loosened his grip on her.

"Gomenasai…"

"No…Miroku…" Sango sounded desperate as she clung to him. Miroku tightened his grip around her.

"I love you too, Miroku…" Miroku tightened his hug around her and kissed her head a few times.

"Sango…I've been wanting to tell you for so long…and today…I almost lost you…" Miroku clung to her just as tightly as she clung to him.

"Miroku…" They loosened the hug and their lips met, proclaiming their love for each other.

By Sesshoumaru…

He paced his bed chamber's length to and fro. Earlier he had stopped by the youkai exterminator's room to see how she and the monk were fairing. As he neared, his ears picked up their proclaims of love for each other. Growling, he had turned and left in a hurry. `Why does it matter to me if they are in love or not? I don't love. Especially humans.'

`Liar…what about Kagome? You love her.'

`Stop reminding me…she loves Inuyasha…'

`She is angry at your idiotic half-sibling. He couldn't bring himself to care to comfort Kagome…you should, Sesshoumaru. She needs comfort now. More than ever.'

Sesshoumaru growled at the truth, then quietly left his room. He walked to the end of the hall, to his mother's room and opened the big 12 foot doors. Inuyasha was no where to be seen as he shut the door silently and moved to the bedside. His nose was filled with the smell of her tears and blood, two smells he had grown to hate.

Slowly, lightly, he slid into the bed with her and pulled her into his arms. He's done this three times now. The very first day he had brought her to his palace so long ago, just only a while ago when Inuyasha went off to sulk after actually apologizing to him, and then there was now. He placed his cheek on hers and purred softly. Her cheeks moved as she smiled in her sleep and his tail wrapped around her.

"No more tears for him…No more tears because of him…"

By Inuyasha…

Anger cursed through his veins. He smelt Sesshoumaru all over Kagome when he had entered the room. He smelt his brother's arousal from Kagome and his lust for her. `I hate him…I hate him…' Inuyasha stole away into the room next to Kagome's and looked behind each picture, looking for any way to spy on them. He glanced at the window, then made his way over. With silence, the window opened and Inuyasha hopped up on the frame. He grumbled and peeked into the window and watched as Sesshoumaru's tail wrapped around HIS Kagome. It took all his strength not to growl as he made his way back to the room. `Damn him, damn him to hell. Damn him to fucking hell!' Inuyasha growled as he paced the room. `Relax, Inuyasha, just…calm down…you'll leave with her, and you will win her back. Make a promise to her and never break it this time. You have to tell her you love her!' His mind boggled on and on until he fell into a horrible nightmare-filled sleep.

Inuyasha's Dream…

Inuyasha was sitting on the well, waiting for Kagome to return. He smelt deeply, and smelt her scent off in the distance. `Kagome?' Inuyasha sped off to go see. He crept through the trees and then up into the branches of one to look at his Kagome standing in the meadow. When he was about to jump down and go see her, he saw another figure moving towards her. Intrigued, he watched, waiting to see what would happen. Sesshoumaru stopped in front of Kagome and soft words were exchanged. Suddenly she launched herself on him and kissed him. Inuyasha's mouth clamped tightly down. `HOW COULD SHE?! HOW DARE SHE?!' His eyes turned red as he stared at the two figures in the meadow, their lips locked in a passionate kiss, one of his hands crept up her shirt. Her moan of pleasure increased his anger as he tore from his spying place and ran to attack that damned man. His Tetsaiga raged in his hands as he saw nothing but red. He tore it down and his brother vanished. Kagome stood there, screaming, tearing at her hair, pain ripping her heart apart. Inuyasha realized what he did and dropped his Tetsaiga. Kagome screamed the three most hurtful words `I hate you.' Her words echoed through him as he felt himself go numb. He had just killed his brother… He had killed the man Kagome loved… He was the cause of her pain…

Inuyasha woke up with a small scream. Sweat dripped down his face and his body was shaking. `It was a dream…only a dream…' Inuyasha wiped his face with his hands, and through the open window, sunlight poured in and birds chirped. A small child's laughter drifted in from the garden, and he went to see who it was. Sesshoumaru's ward was playing in the meadow with Kagome sitting in the grass. Sango and Miroku were walking through the flower garden, Miroku picking a beautiful lily for Sango, who blushed and giggled. Everything was normal. Sesshoumaru was even there, watching his ward dance in the morning sun, a small smile on his face. `Woah…as if that dream wasn't enough, Sesshoumaru is smiling?' Inuyasha sighed, then went to go join them. Might as well forget about the dream…it's not like dreams can tell the future, right?
