InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ As Fate Would Have It ❯ Chapter 6: Trouble ( Chapter 6 )

Author's Note: Hey all. So I just posted a chapter yesterday, but I thought I had to work 11-7 but called to check cause I wasn't sure and I work 12-6 (wooot wooot) so I'm gonna start the next chapter. Things have been moving a little slow. I'm doing it on purpose b/c I don't think you can just fall for someone (this being inu and kagome) like that. They sorta are still at that I don't get along with the other stage. And well Kagome is uncomfortable all together but hey that'll change.

 

I've Got Precious things blaring by Tori Amos and im inspired so here I go…

 

 

Chapter 6: Trouble

 

 

The room was dark and dreary thunder every once in a while would light up the room. The atmosphere was that of a horror movie. The sounds of painful cries could be heard from miles away.

 

A bloodied Hiten sat hunkered down in front of a gloomy shadowy figure.

 

“YOU DIDN'T RETRIEVE HER??” the sinister deep sadistic voice screamed.

 

“M-my lord I tried I -I was s-surprised t-tto find that I-iii-inuyasha was protecting her,” He lowered his head in fear.

 

“Inuyasha, is that so.” He spat in anger.

 

Hiten kept his head down, “It seemed s-she was kept I-in the dark m-my lord.”

 

“I see well, let us have some fun with this predicament.” The voice evily lowered. He pulled out a thick shard in which he held between his fingers. He pressed it against his finger causing blood to cover it, changing the soft pink into a black purple color.

 

“Hiten.” He spoke even more evily, “You will not fail me again” he flicked the shard at the man below him. As Hiten raised his head the shard pierced him through the throat. He screamed in utter pain.

 

 

Kagome felt warm and best of all safe. It had been awhile. But she couldn't place the reason why. She opened her eyes to the sun just barely shining through the black curtains.

She went to turn but wasn't able to. Then the source of warmth dawned on her.

 

In the course of the night somehow Inuyasha had turned over into a spooning position with Kagome. He had his leg lazily draped over hers. His arm had snaked around her and his hand was latched to hers. Oddly to her she had her hand tightly holding his too.

 

This was the second time she should of felt violated by the hanyou, but she just couldn't find the reasoning in her heart to be mad. `What am I thinking' she contemplated.

 

Inuyasha nuzzled his cheek into the base of her neck. His soft lips pressed against the nape of her neck. The heat from his breathing tickled Kagome slightly. A very slight moan left Kagome's lips and with her unbound hand she covered her mouth in attempt to mutter the sound. Hearing her moan Inuyasha woke immediately. Kagome didn't miss the stiffening of his body against hers, but he never moved away.

 

“Inuyasha?” she whispered barely audible.

 

“What do you want?” he asked gruffly still unwavering in his movements.

 

“Um, well aren't you um…uncomfortable?” she asked very uneasily.

 

“No, I'm not, now be quiet I'm trying to sleep.” Inuyasha covered up the fact that he was a little embarrassed. But he did not want to move. But there was no way he was going to come out and just say it.

 

Kagome complied

 

But only for a few minutes before she couldn't control the silence.

 

“You know I need to go back to my apartment to get my stuff. I really need to find another apartment.” She whispered.

 

Inuyasha growled in irritation and ignored her comment.

 

`Did he just growl?' Kagome thought to herself. She had known he was a half demon. Part dog demon to be exact. Demons have been around for centuries. Some humans were able to find peace with them while others saw them as outcasts and a danger to the human race. Not to say that demons weren't the same way towards humans.

 

The demon that had attacked her yesterday seemed like one of those hostile demons. She thought back to last night with an uncontrollable shiver.

 

Inuyasha felt the small girl in his arms tremble. Instinctly he just tightened his hold on her. He could smell her grueling fear again. “What's wrong now?” he asked.

 

“You know Inuyasha, you never told me how you knew that demon from yesterday?” Kagome mumbled.

 

Inuyasha took a deep breath. “You know you never do what I tell you to. Can't be quiet. Instead you ask a million questions.” He spoke with what seemed more amusement than that of anger or annoyance.

 

“Well sorry Mr. Big and Bad that I don't like to be kept in the dark.” She yelled with the anger he lacked.

 

The warmth that had been surrounding her all morning had left abruptly. Inuyasha felt chills run down his spine as his senses picked up something of pure hate and danger. He shot up from the bed to throw his white beater on along with a pair of dark jeans with various holes.

 

“What's wrong?” Kagome questioned with an evident panic in her voice.

 

“Stay here. Don't move.” He growled and rushed out the door.

 

 

 

 

Miroku stood outside with Sango and other various gang members. `where the hell is Inuyasha' he breathed in catching a glimpse of the approaching force.

 

“Miroku, who is it?” Sango questioned walking up beside him with her trademark boomerang in hand. A small creature sat upon her shoulder and let out a small growl.

 

Miroku's hand fisted, “Naraku” he spat.

 

Hiten stood outside the gates that surrounded the club and base of Inuyasha's gang.

 

“Where's the girl?” He asked Miroku who was evidently the leader at the moment.

 

“Who wants to know?” Sango yelled. Miroku held up his hand motioning Sango's silence. He took a possessive step in front of her and glared up at Hiten.

 

“I'm curious to know Naraku's fascination with Kagome.” He questioned. Sango's eyes opened slightly at the sudden realization. Was Naraku really after Kagome.

 

Hiten smiled, “Hmm, very observant you pesky bastard.” Hiten propelled in the air and came straight towards Miroku.

 

Miroku pushed Sango aside and met Hiten's scythe with his staff. Hiten pushed off Miroku back into the air.

 

“ATTACK!” Hiten yelled.

 

The force knocked the gate down after a few attempts.

 

Sango's trusted fire cat Kilala transformed into her true form and along with Sango took flight to go head on with the enemy.

 

 

 

Soon after Inuyasha had left Kagome found that she couldn't stand around and just do nothing. Something was terribly wrong and she attended to find out just what exactly it was.

 

She followed out the door that Inuyasha had ealier to find herself in a gourgeous living room. Everything was furnished in black marble and leather. But she had no time to gawk she needed to find the way out. She walked from the living room to the kitchen and followed the hall down to a door.

 

Lucky for her it let to another hallway. `most likely the other doors led to other living quarters. She went to the end of the hall to descend down the stairs with rapid speed. Below the stairs stood a glass shelf with many weapons inside. She eyed an empty space where a sword most likely was placed. She then eyed a bow with a satchel containing several arrows.

 

Kagome opened the case and reached in picking her weapon of choice. ` I can fight too. I won't be taken by surprised or afraid this time.' With that solemn thought she continued through the mansion's maze.

 

 

 

Miroku met Hiten attack for attack but was finding it hard to defend himself any further. The Demon before him had an immense amount of strength. On top of which he was doing his best to keep some of his senses on Sango. This did not go unnoticed by the super demon before him.

 

“Your emotions for that human make you weak you whelp.” Hiten taunted creating a thunder wind attack sending Miroku back several feet.

 

“On top of which she is killing off a lot of my men. So how bout I kill to birds with one stone.” Hiten pointed his scythe at Sango sending off an electric bolt shocking both her and kilala. The shock stunned Sango sending her plummeting to her death.

 

Miroku ran with all his might and barley caught Sango. When he turned to face Hiten the demon had his scythe raised for an attack. Miroku turned his back against the Hiten to protect Sango and felt the tearing of his back as a result.

 

“See what emotion's do they only let your guard down.” Hiten cackled it did not last long before his eyes widened in disbelief.

 

“See what egotistical pompess assess get when they boast.” Inuyasha's eyes glowed red as he sent his sword from Hiten's head straight down separating him into two.

 

“Hmph, nothing.” He gruffly spoke. He turned to slash at the remaining demon force with his tessiaga diminishing every last one.

 

He turned his attention to a worried Sango holding a badly injured Miroku. Inuyasha knelt next to Miroku.

 

“W-what took yoou so lonng?” Miroku spoke weakly.

 

“Your own fault for being so weak geezzz.” Inuyasha blurted out. He grabbed Miroku's arm about to lift him up.

 

“How bad are yea hurt? Can yea at least stand a little?” Inuyasha asked showing a little concern.

 

“He missed any vital organ's I should heal in a day or so.” Miroku groaned as another spasm of pain shot through his body.

 

“Not if I have anything to say about it.” Hiten yelled lifting his scythe to aim at the two demons.

 

An arrow shot out of nowhere piercing the crazed demon through the neck. A black shard flew out of his neck and the arrow's energy burst disintegrated the demons threat.

 

Six confused eyes turned to find Kagome with a raised bow on wobbly legs. She had a slight glow around her that lasted no longer than a blink of the eye. Kagome dropped the bow and made to step down the stairs before losing consciousness. Inuyasha rushed to catch her before she hit the stairs.

 

“Kagome? KAGOME?” he screamed.

 

No answer.

 

 

A small girl with white hair stood in front of the dark figure known as Naraku. The images of the fight played to him like a movie. “The idiotic whelp. Figures. No, matter this is exactly what I wanted.”

 

He turned toward a man who appeared just as grim as he. “Your turn. And I will not accept any more failure. You owe me your life already.”

 

“Yes my lord.” The man bowed.

 

 

Kagome gradually opened her eyes. She was in bed again. She sat up too look around her surroundings it was Inuyasha's room. `What had happened?' all she could remember was raising her bow to strike Hiten. Did she hit him?

 

She rolled off the bed to stand on shaky legs. `Ugh my head is killing me' she walked to the door. She walked into the living room to find Inuyasha and Miroku watching television. Both glanced up and could only stare.

 

Kagome was in one of Sango's silken kimono robes and she must have not taken time to adjust it but she showed a great deal of skin.

 

She looked like a vixen to Inuyasha yet she was so innocent. It was hard to believe she had actually been the one to defeat Hiten. He tore his eyes away from her to look at Miroku who was just as mesmerized.

 

Inuyasha growled deeply. Miroku looked at him surprised and smirked.

 

“Are you possibly jealous my dear cousin?” he asked with a hint to tease.

 

“Hmph, over some girl no way.” Inuyasha crossed his arms like a little boy.

 

“Oh, I see well then you won't mind if I-.”

 

Inuyasha growled smacking him hard in the head. “You leach don't even let the thoughts cross your mind.

 

“Jealousy rears its ugly green head.” Miroku whispered only to earn another pounding my Inuyasha.

 

Inuyasha stood and made his way to a dazed and oblivious Kagome. He reached up and adjusted the front of her Kimono.

 

Kagome blushed a very dark shade of red, which only added to her horrible headache.

 

“You should be in bed.” Inuyasha whispered.

 

Miroku watched in utter amazement at Inuyasha actually being…caring? He couldn't help but smirk again.

 

Kagome walked past Inuyasha using the wall for support, “I am perfectly fine.” She mumbled.

 

Inuyasha found himself angered again. `She never listens damnit' Inuyasha walked by her and stood in her path. “Look, I didn't ask you how you felt I was telling you that you should be in bed.”

 

Sango entered the room just in time to hear the fight. She sat next to Miroku who just looked at her then back up at the fight amused.

 

“What about Miroku? He was hurt much more than I was. Why does he not have to be in bed?” She argued.

 

“Benefits of being a demon sweetheart. Now back to bed.” He continued.

 

Kagome began to become irritated with the hanyou. “I'm telling you I don't need anymore rest. Believe it or everyone doesn't do everything you ask them too.” She yelled pushing against his chest.

 

Inuyasha stood like a rock, “They most certainly do but you wouldn't know cause you never listen to a damn thing I say.”

 

“ARGH!! You are such an egotistical jerk.” She screamed.

 

“And you're a bitch, so I guess that makes us even.” He yelled.

 

Kagome slapped him as hard as she could.

 

Again.

 

That was Inuyasha's breaking point. He was tired of dealing with her defiance and wanted the control he was used to always having. His demon side was going to get it.

 

He grabbed both of her wrists and pinned her against the wall with a more menacing growl than anyone in that room had witnessed. His eyes bleed red as he looked into Kagome's scared ones.

 

“Inuyasha don't.” Sango screamed standing up. Inuyasha turned towards Miroku and Sango growling yet again.

 

“Stay away.” He ordered.

 

Miroku grabbed Sango's wrist and brought her back to the couch.

 

“Miroku…?” Sango questioned. Miroku only shook his head.

 

Inuyasha glared back at the struggling Kagome. He did not like the fear in her eyes but if he didn't put her in her place she was only going to get hurt.

 

“Your lucky! If you were part of this damned gang I would of already killed you!” He shouted blindly. Kagome's eye widened.

 

`gang?'

 

Inuyasha let go of her and took two retreating steps back at realizing what he had said. Damnit that's not what he has intended to say. He shook of the remorse and picked her up.

 

Kagome struggled all the way to his room. “Stop! Don't touch me! Let go. Don't.” She Hissed. Inuyasha dropped her on the ground and grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the bed. “Stop Inuyasha you're hurting me.” She cried.

 

He pushed her on the bed and walked out of the room locking it behind him. He leaned up against the door only to feel it vibrate with each hit Kagome banged against it.

 

“Let me out. Inuyasha!!! SANGO? Anyone.”

 

Sango watched heartbroken over the series of events. Miroku only held her as he watched the scene.

 

Inuyasha walked back to them.

 

“You you animal! You HEARTLESS ANIMAL!!!” Sango screamed with tears rolling down her eyes as she struggled to get out of Miroku's grasp.

 

Inuyasha walked by the couple out the door. “Yea I know Heartless animal.” He spoke bitterly. “But she's safe, that's what I promised yea wasn't it.” He walked out the door slamming it.

 

Sango stopped struggling and slumped forward. “Why…” she spoke softly through her sobs.

 

“Why wouldn't you let me help her?” She asked.

 

“Because I knew Inuyasha wouldn't hurt her?” He whispered into her ear. Sango looked up at him puzzled. “I honestly think he cares for the girl Sango. He just can't bring himself to show the feelings. Come on.” Miroku picked Sango up and headed to their room.

 

 

Kagome leaned against the door trying to stifle her cries. `Not again. No not this. She would not be used. Not after she finally got away.' Kagome felt more lost and alone at that very moment.

 

She was so naive. How could she not see this? Inuyasha's complete control over everyone. Living quarters at a bar. All the demons that hung around. How he knew Hiten. All of it.

 

So this meant that Sango had come to Tokyo because of a gang. She had never even told Kagome. Her best friend. No, this wasn't Sango's fault. Kagome stood up and made her way to the window.

 

She opened it to get some fresh air. And to sort out her thoughts

 

Inuyasha sat at the bar with a bottle of tequila. He felt guilty.

 

Guilty.

 

That was something he hadn't felt in a long time.

 

Miroku walked up to take a seat beside him. “Starting early I see.” Miroku stated.

 

“What the hell do you want?” Inuyasha asked.

 

Miroku sat in silence for a second to contemplate the right course of action to get his point across.

 

“Where's Sango?” Inuyasha asked his second in command.

 

“Asleep. She was very upset. I understand that you are attempting to mean well Inuyasha, but quiet frankly your way of going about it sucks.” Miroku took the tequila bottle from Inuyasha to pour himself a hard drink.

 

“I don't give a fuck what you think Miroku!!” He snarled.

 

“Oh, but you do care what Kagome thinks. Which is why you are feeling so damn guilty right now. Well you want to fix things? Then I would advise you to get off you sorry ass and talk to her.” Miroku spoke with a distinct outrage but at the same time with control.

 

It was a strange thing to see Miroku mad. The demon was always in control and gentle. Complete opposite of Inuyasha.

 

Inuyasha turned in his seat. “She hates me. I assure you I'm the last person she wants to see.”

 

“Kagome needs saving just as much as you Inuyasha, I honestly think you could help each other. If only you could see the glances between you two, maybe then you would understand me.” Miroku downed his shot and left Inuyasha with his thoughts.

 

“Glances? Saving?” Inuyasha spoke jumbled up. It had been a good two hours. Perhaps Kagome had cooled off by now. He sighed and took a giant gulp of the tequila and stood up.

 

Inuyasha ascended the stairs and followed the halls to his room. Before he knew it he was standing in front of the room he had locked Kagome in.

 

“Kagome?” he asked.

 

Nothing.

 

“KAGOME?” he yelled a little louder.

 

He unlocked the door and busted in to find the room empty. The only traces of Kagome were bits of her lingering scent.
