InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Amber Eyes of Love ❯ Ryan's Taunting & Inuyasha's Temper ( Chapter 3 )

It’s was a quiet walk back to the campsite. Shortly after Inuyasha was caught Miroku was found lurking in the bushes. Inuyasha got a mouth full from Kagome and Miroku got a few knuckle sandwiches.

‘Can’t even watch over & protect them.’ Inuyasha grunted

‘What was me thinking…I expected that kind of behavior from Miroku but…Inuyasha?’ Kagome thought as she started at the ground.

‘Who was Inuyasha looking at me or Kagome?’ Naseva wondered staring at the sky. 'Does he even like me?'

‘Maybe if I told Sango how I felt about her…she wouldn’t hit me as much.’ Miroku thought he smiled as he watched her hips sway with such grace and poise luring any mans hands to it only to be repaid with a slap or fist to the jaw.

-----------------------------------

“Kagome.” Shippo yelled running over to her, she moved as he went to jump into her arms. He flew right into Inuyasha’s stomach, bounced off and hit the ground.

“Watch where your going.” Inuyasha said in a nice tone. 'Something’s really wrong with this picture.' Shippo looked shocked at Inuyasha, for once he had said something to him without a fist after.

Inuyasha walked passed Ryan to the nearest tree and was about to leap onto the nearest branch but stopped as he noticed Ryan staring at him. “What?” Inuyasha asked with a low growl.

“I always knew there was something different about you, compared to other demons, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it…until now.” Ryan said with sly smile on his face.

‘Watch what you say.’ Inuyasha thought as a low warning growl arose from his throat as he jumped up onto the nearest branch.

“Can’t believe you’re a Hanyou.” Ryan said almost in a laugh.

Inuyasha froze ‘Hanyou’ he hadn’t heard that word in months and surely didn’t want to hear it from the man Naseva pick him over. He grinding his teeth as he tightened his fist, until his nails dug into his palms and it hurt. He opened his fist and stared at the blood that ran out of the cuts in his palm. Purple markings, resembling Sesshomaru’s, lightly appeared on his cheeks and his eyes turned red.

“By your battle skills, I would of never thought you were…I‘ve only heard about Hanyou‘s in stories, I‘ve never actually met one.” Ryan continued. Inuyasha gave a vicious growl as he jumped off the branch, in the blink of an eye, he grabbed Ryan by his throat, rammed him into a tree and lifted him a few ft off the ground.

Naseva gasped at the sight. “Inuyasha…let him go!” She yelled trying to pry his hands from around Ryan’s neck. She looked over her shoulder at Inuyasha. “Inuyasha..” She said struggling to get the words out as she notice his change. His face was paler than normal and his eyes were blood shot red.

“Inuyasha!” Kagome yelled in the same voice she uses when she yells sit.

“Inuyasha please…let him go.” Naseva said looking at Ryan who was now turning blue. She looked back at Inuyasha with teary eyes. Inuyasha stared at Ryan once more, he growled deeply and released him. Ryan dropped to the ground. He quickly began coughing and taking deep breathes.

“What the hell was that all about?” Kagome asked as Naseva helped Ryan up. Sango, Miroku, Kilala and Shippo stared in amazement. Inuyasha dropped to his knees and stared at his hands his wounds were healed, his face and eyes return to normal. “I don’t know.” he said staring at his hands in confusion. ‘Why did I react like that? It was like I couldn’t control myself…’ He thought pounding his fist into the ground.

“What do you mean you don’t know?” Miroku asked stepping forward, Inuyasha bared his teeth warning him not to come closer.

“You almost killed Ryan…and you have no explanation why?” Naseva said in a angry tone. Inuyasha stood slowly.

“That’s exactly what I’m saying.” He replied with one hand resting on the handle of his sword and the other at his side.

Naseva eyes opened wide with realization. “Inuyasha…I know you have feeling for me…but that doesn’t justify you trying to kill Ryan.”

“Feh…” Inuyasha said closing his eyes. ‘Now she realizes my feelings for her.' “We shouldn’t waist the daylight…lets get started looking for the last two shards.” He said looking at Kagome. She nodded, grabbed her things and followed him into the forest. Miroku, Sango, Kilala, and Shippo followed.

“Will meet you back at the village.” Naseva said as Ryan and her walked the opposite way.

“Ok.” Kagome yelled back with a bright smile and a quick wave.

-----------------------------------

“Mama!” Shippo yelled jumping into her arms. Kagome laughed as Shippo brushed his tail against her chin. Shippo soon fell asleep in her arms. Kagome, out of the corner of her eye, caught Inuyasha staring at her. She turned her head making eye contact with his and gave a pleasant smile. Inuyasha couldn’t help but smile back seeing her warm almond brown eyes and sweet loving smile.

‘Her smile drives me wild, her laugh drives me crazy and....’ A sharp pain shoot threw his stomach he stopped in his tracks.

“Inuyasha?” Kagome said in a soft caring voice as she notice his sudden stop.

“I‘ll live.” He shot back and resumed walking. ‘What the hells wrong with me?’ Inuyasha thought looking to the sky for answers.
