Chapter 35
Night of The New Moon
 
“You bastard!”
 
Everyone was rudely awoken from their sleep. Looking around they found Kouga standing at the base of the tree that Inuyasha and Kagome were sleeping in. His chest was heaving. He glared murderously at Inuyasha while growling.
 
“What's going on?” Miroku asked.
 
“What do you mean what's going on? You all know what's going on! Inukurro here mated with MY mate!” Kouga shouted.
 
“She's not your mate.” Inuyasha growled. He grabbed Kagome and Shippo before jumping to the ground behind Kouga.
 
“She was supposed to be! You know damn well that I had a claim on her!” Kouga growled.
 
“She was already marked when you saw her.” Inuyasha said calmly.
 
“This is ridiculous! You act as if I'm a possession! I've already made my decision. Gomen nasai Kouga, Inuyasha is my mate.” Kagome smiled.
 
Kouga stood up straight and sighed. “I guess your right. You aren't a possession. I always knew you'd choose him. I guess I got carried away, although I do like to cause trouble.” He smiled at Kagome. “So how are things going?”
 
“I can't believe he could change moods so quickly.” Sango whispered to Miroku.
 
“I know it amazes me.” Miroku whispered back.
 
“Things are going fine.” Kagome smiled. “How are things with you?”
 
“Things are great. I was just passing by and caught your scent. I should get going. I don't mean to leave in a hurry but if I don't leave quickly I may end up with a mate.” Kouga chuckled. He kissed her hand and went on his way. “See you later!”
 
“What the hell is with that guy?” Inuyasha growled. “Touching my mate like that! That bastard!”
 
“He's in his own world again.” Sango rolled her eyes. “Well I think I should start with breakfast.”
 
“I'll help.” Kagome said. She picked Shippo up. “I'll go get some water.”
 
“We're leaving as soon as we've eaten!” Inuyasha yelled to everyone. They just ignored him and continued with what they were doing. “Oi are you listening?”
 
-------------------
 
“How was your trip?” Rin asked excitedly as she greeted them.
 
“It was okay.” Kagome said. “I'm surprised your up.”
 
“I'm pregnant not dying.” Rin huffed. “I threatened Sesshomaru that if he didn't let me out of the room he wouldn't live long enough to see his baby.”
 
“The great Sesshomaru brought down by a woman.” Inuyasha chuckled.
 
“I heard that hanyou.” Sesshomaru said showing a hint of anger. “Rin may do as she likes so long as she's careful. If I must I will use force. Shouldn't you be in your room hiding? It is the new moon.”
 
“What are you talking about?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“You don't remember do you? You'll find out when the sun goes down.” Sesshomaru said with a hint of amusement in his voice.”
 
“What?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“So it seems you've finally claimed the miko.” Sesshomaru said changing the subject. “Took you long enough, you had a claim on her long ago.”
 
“Shut up!” Inuyasha growled. “That's none of your business!”
 
Kagome blushed brightly and turned away from everyone. Before she could try to calm herself down Inuyasha grabbed her, ran up the stairs and into their room. “Inuyasha! Can't you warn me before you do those things?” Kagome shouted.
 
“Keh.” Inuyasha replied and laid down on the bed.
 
“What's wrong with you?” Kagome asked as she sat down next to him.
 
“Nothing.” He said in a muffled voice.
 
“Something's wrong. I can tell.” Kagome poked him.
 
“I feel...weird.” Inuyasha finally said in a low voice.
 
“Weird? How so?”
 
“I don't know! I feel tingly.” Inuyasha described.
 
“Did you eat something funny?” Kagome asked.
 
“No.” Inuyasha sat up grabbed her around the waist and laid back down. “Probably that damn Kouga.”
 
“What could he have done?” Kagome rolled her eyes. “He wasn't anywhere near you.”
 
Inuyasha didn't say a word. He just nuzzled Kagome's neck, letting her scent comfort him.
 
-------------------
 
Later that evening Kagome woke up. She didn't mean to fall asleep but she was so warm. Inuyasha was in the bed wiggling around. She turned around to see what he was doing. When she turned around she didn't see Inuyasha. It was someone else with black hair and brown eyes. She screamed and jumped out of the bed.
 
The person lying in bed with her jumped up covering his ears and yelled, “Will you stop that! What the hell are you screaming for?”
 
“Inuyasha?” Kagome asked.
 
“What?” The person in front of her said.
 
“What happened?” Kagome asked.
 
“What do you mean what happened?” Inuyasha asked.
 
Kagome walked over to him and held his hair into his view. “Your hair changed, your ears are human, you have no claws, and your eyes are brown.” She explained.
 
“What the hell.” Inuyasha said as he looked at his hands. It was then he realized that his senses were dulled.
 
“What happened?” Kagome asked.
 
“I don't know. I was asleep then I woke up feeling really ting-” He was interrupted when there was a knock at the door. “Who is it?”
 
“Who else you idiot?” Sesshomaru said.
 
“What do you want?” Inuyasha growled the best he could.
 
“I assume from the scream I heard earlier and the irritation in your voice you've noticed what happens on the new moon?” Sesshomaru asked.
 
Kagome walked over to the door and opened it letting Sesshomaru in then she shut it. “So you know what's wrong?” Kagome asked.
 
“Hanyous lose their youkai blood once a month leaving them human.” Sesshomaru explained.
 
“So he's human?” Kagome asked.
 
“How long?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“Until sunrise tomorrow. Your human night is on the new moon.” Sesshomaru explained.
 
“Why didn't you say anything?” Kagome asked.
 
“I thought it would be more amusing for him to find out on his own.” Sesshomaru said with amusement in his voice.
 
“You bastard!” Inuyasha yelled not able to growl.
 
“I've explained what needs be.” Sesshomaru said and left the room.
 
“I wish he would've told us earlier.” Kagome said putting a hand to her heart. “You almost scared me to death!”
 
“Keh. You aren't the one going through this crap.” Inuyasha said. He sat down on the bed and crossed his arms and legs. “Bastard, always hiding stuff.”
 
“Well at least he explained now. He could've just let you figure everything out on your own.” Kagome sat down next to him.
 
“It doesn't matter. You heard him when we got back! He was fucking around with me!” Inuyasha yelled. He was angry that he couldn't growl. “If I was-”
 
*****MEMORY*****
 
“Inuyasha! Come out! I know you're out here!” Kagome shouted. “I saw you come out here now quit hiding!”
 
“Just go away!” Inuyasha shouted.
 
“No!” Kagome said trying to find him by his voice. “You come out!”
 
“It's not going to happen!” Inuyasha shouted again.
 
Kagome smiled. She knew where he was. She walked to where his voice was coming from and saw his red haori from behind a tree. She ran over to him and jumped on him. “I found you!” She looked down to see that it was a different little boy who was human. She quickly got off. “Gomen nasai. I thought you were a friend.”
 
“I'm Inuyasha.” He said.
 
“Nani?” Kagome said. She moved until she was about an inch from his face and looked into his eyes. “Inuyasha? Why do you look different?”
 
Inuyasha quickly backed away when he realized how close she was. He could feel her breath on his face. “I'm human. Once a month I turn human.” He said.
 
“Why didn't you tell me? Is that why you ran away?” Kagome asked angrily.
 
“I didn't want you to know. I don't like being human.” Inuyasha crossed his arms.
 
“Why?” Kagome asked.
 
“Because I'm weak.” Inuyasha huffed.
 
“Does it matter?” Kagome asked.
 
“Yes! Then I can't do anything I used to!” Inuyasha shouted. “I don't like being human.”
 
“Well you aren't any different.” Kagome smiled. “Your you either way even if you are `weak'”
 
Inuyasha turned his head and blushed. “Keh!”
 
*****END*****
 
They both snapped out of the cloud that filled their heads. “I guess Sesshomaru wouldn't have had to explain anything.” Kagome finally said.
 
“I guess that means you've known all along.” Inuyasha said with his same gruff attitude.
 
“You always make such a big deal out of little things.” Kagome sighed.
 
“This is not a little thing! You saw the memory!” Inuyasha shouted.
 
“I don't see a much of a difference. Your still you.” Kagome smiled.
 
“Keh, whatever.” Inuyasha crossed his arms again. After a couple minutes of silence he finally spoke up. “So you don't mind?”
 
“What that your human?” Kagome asked. He nodded. “I don't mind, like I said your still you. Although I do miss your ears.”
 
“Always with the ears.” Inuyasha rolled his eyes. He wrapped his arms around her waist and laid back on the bed. He couldn't smell her scent with his human senses so he at least wanted to be able to feel her warmth.
 
“They're so cute!” Kagome smiled and kissed him in reassurance. “At least it won't last long.”
 
“Whatever.” Inuyasha said and kissed her.
