3: Need A Drink

3.05 [Sengoku Jidai, One Day Later] (teeny tiny prelude)

"I can't teach you, Kagome! I learned by experience!" Inuyasha had said.

"Do you want me to go to Kouga? Surely somebody in his clan knows how to teach people to fight!"

"No! No! That's not it! I'll try!"

"SIT! Don't lead me around!"

"I SAID I'D TRY!"

"Oh. Sorry!"

And so Inuyasha found himself adjusting Kagome's arms to show her how to perform a move.

3.1

Kouga, once again, slunk about in the trees high above Inuyasha and Kagome. He felt something beyond anger, something close to blind rage. His mouth tried to froth, but the potion Miyouga had had Kaede brew kept his mouth from frothing and would continue doing so for another month. His mouth again tried to froth (and again to no avail) when he thought of the potion's taste.

Inuyasha, who had showed no sign of foaming at the mouth, had gotten lucky. Or perhaps, Kouga reflected, Inuyasha had been unlucky, because Kagome had been the one to force the potion down the (now) slightly addled wolf demon's throat.

But Inuyasha! Touching Kagome! Touching HIS Kagome! THE NERVE!

"STOP RIGHT THERE!" Kouga cried. "Inuyasha how DARE you touch my woman?!"

"YOUR WOMAN?!"

And then down came Kouga, landing on Inuyasha's head ("OW") then flipping neatly in front of Kagome. Kouga smoothly disconnected the human and hanyou. Unfortunately, Inuyasha tried to trip Kouga and partly succeeded- Kouga went reeling forward, his lips (and head) knocking against Kagome's.

Inuyasha began to foam at the mouth. Hastily he crammed his jaws together and made growling noises in the back of his throat.

Yet again, the worst possible person to view this scene walked in.

Miroku turned to look at Inuyasha. "Considering your actions last week, I would assume that you are jealous of Kagome?"

Inuyasha, whose gums had stuck together, could say nothing in his defense.

Kagome managed to recover from having her lips suddenly and violently forced against Kouga's and brought her hand against his cheek in a mighty slap. Kouga put his hand to the red mark on the offended cheek and made a whining sound.

Kagome wheeled around to face Inuyasha. "AND YOU! LEADING BOTH ME AND KIKYOU ON!"

Inuyasha backed away, whimpering.

The sound of flesh striking flesh filled the clearing.
