Chapter Nine
The very second that they torch hit the hay, it was set ablaze. It had been so fast that nobody had the chance to blink and despite what they felt, gasps of surprise fell from their lips. Fire, it was everywhere, circling Kagome like a ring of death and her eyes were drawn to it, she couldn’t look away. The flames closed in around her, the heat seeping into her skin and making her sweat. Her heart pounded wildly in her chest, she couldn’t breathe. Smoke pillowed around her like a curtain and she choked on it.
To everyone outside the perimeter, the fire looked like a forbidden dance, the dance of the damned, of the very flames of hell. It was a sin to watch but a sin to look away. It drew closer to Kagome, nearly nipping at her flesh and singeing her clothes, and at one point catching a light. She screamed then, a loud shrill scared scream that sent shudders through every villager. Her mother wailed loudly begging for the madness to end, for the life of her daughter to be spared, but Naraku stood there a few feet away from the flames, his arms over his chest. Black eyes stared into the flames, hiding his smirk, but barely.
An echo roared from the forest surrounding Salem, a howl of animalistic anger, the bringer of death was coming. Wind blew fiercely and as another howl erupted from the forest, a flash of silver escaped from the tops of the trees and headed directly towards the crowd. Villagers screamed in fear and fled as a figure stood crouched on the ground, golden eyes filled with hatred staring down the head man of the town. The beast was calling him out.
InuYasha was angry, he was out for blood. It was revenge for the death of Kikyo, for him, and for Kagome. He wouldn’t leave until he had ripped the flesh from the foul being’s body and left him nothing but a blood mass of nothing. Growling loudly he stood up, his claws flexed and his muscles stiff, this was the first and last fight. Good against evil, there would be nothing held back, this fight was for the whole cake.
“NARAKU!” InuYasha was loud and commanding, his silver hair blowing all around him.
Laughter rang out, malicious laughter that curdled the blood of any and all who witnessed the scene before them. The fire surrounding Kagome had turned purple and black, the smoke filling the sky and turning it red and orange like the sunsets in the summer. There was something horribly wrong in Salem, the devil was going to show its face once and for all.
“InuYasha,” Naraku chuckled evilly. “We both know what it is that you want, but honestly do you think that you’ll be able to save her now? This Onigumo will not allow you to take what is rightfully mine! I will have this town as my own. The gateway to eternal suffering will no longer be delayed because of selfish nothings.”
“I WON’T LET YOU HAVE HER!” InuYasha screamed.
InuYasha attacked. His claws were bared and his eyes were narrowed into slits. He was like a flash of lightening as he surged forward, swiping his claws at Naraku, he would take no prisoners. No mercy. Naraku was able to dodge the initial attack and it sent InuYasha almost stumbling to the ground, almost. The air grew thick with something, and Black eyes widened and turned red. The demon was coming out of his shell. Pale flesh tore at the seams, the once human body expanding into a giant of a beast. Sickening green and brown tentacles broke free and tore black hair from Naraku’s scalp. Blood oozed from fingertips which expanded into sharp and yellow claws.
It was a transformation out of the book of Satan, clothing ripped and the pieces that touched the ground burst in to green flames. InuYasha watched in disgust as Naraku took shape, his body merely lumps of something else, carcasses of what looked to be insects and pieces of animals that had been taken in. Bones of animals circled down his back and looked like shields, his head taking the form of Onigumo, the man who had betrayed InuYasha in the past. Red eyes, that’s all he focused on as flesh melted, turning into blue cloth and which shrunk the demon’s body into the shape of a man. He was reconstructing himself. This demon Naraku, Onigumo, or whatever he called himself was like the water, never the same thing twice.
He laughed as his skin turned olive and his body was complete. The sword in his hand humming, wishing for the blood of a half demon who had never been fully transformed. He had been doing this for centuries, turning humans into demons, letting the evil fill their souls and when the time came, absorbing them into his being as his own creation, thus making him more powerful. It was how the cycle worked. Only the strong would survive, and he was the strongest of them all. Villagers watched in disbelief and some fainted from the sight. To think that the leader of their village was nothing but a demon in disguise, the town of Salem was a harem for sin, a breeding ground for evil.
“How do you like my true form InuYasha?” Naraku sneered watching the said half demon, his red eyes burning holes into flesh. “Soon you will be a part of this body, and I will show these pathetic humans the true meaning of suffering. You will not escape me half breed, I made you what you are and now I will take what’s mine."
InuYasha was distracted by a shrill scream of Kagome from the swirling fire of greens and blacks, the flames dancing with an eerie magic. It was like a funnel of air swirling around making the fire compress as if it was slowly closing in around the girl and InuYasha darted for her. He couldn’t let her die like that, he wouldn’t allow Naraku to win, not after everything that had happened. Blood, the smell of her blood filled his nostril and before he could leap into the swirling fire of death, his ears twitched and he barely had enough time to try and doge the attack.
Spinning on his heels, InuYasha was thrown across the ground, a large brown tentacle springing from Naraku’s body and impaling itself into InuYasha’s bicep. He cried out in pain and clawed at it, trying to tear it from his body as it tingled. The bastard was laughing at him and it angered him, filled his heart with the hate he had felt earlier, it kept him going strong. His eyes darted around and lunging to his left, InuYasha was able to fake a left and throw a punch, his fist missing, but his claws taking with them a nice chunk of flesh from Naraku’s body.
He had to keep an eye on the sword that Naraku carried in his hand as it swung too close for comfort next to his head, it would prove to be a disadvantage. Barely able to avoid the next tentacle that came at him InuYasha changed his strategy, what he had wasn’t working for him and managing to jump behind the incarnate of evil, InuYasha tore at flesh with his claws, red blood spilling everywhere.
There was no scream of pain like he was expecting, but laughter, Naraku just laughed as he turned to face the hanyou, his blood red eyes glowing with malicious intent. Lifting the blade of the sword, he said one word under his breath and it began to glow yellow, an aura that InuYasha’s instincts were screaming to duck for cover. However, it happened in less than the blink of an eye and a stream of lightening poured from the blade and struck InuYasha full force. His body felt like he was being ripped off, like he was being skinned alive as the small puncture wound in his chest grew.
He screamed as his skin stretched and flesh tore, small trickles of blood escaping the expanding wound and InuYasha couldn’t stop it. He could only watch in horror as his muscles twitched violently, starting to spasm and turning practically into jelly. InuYasha crashed to his knees and he tried to cover the whole now roughly the size of a fifty scent piece, hoping that he could stop it, but jolts of pain only ripped through his bones.
“Are you feeling it yet InuYasha?” Naraku laughed viciously as he kicked the hanyou’s side causing InuYasha to cry out and skid backwards a few feet on his back. “The tingling goes away you know, only to be replaced with agony as your soul is torn from your body and absorbed into my own.”
The pain which he spoke of, InuYasha could feel it coursing in his veins and he fought back his screams. It was like having each of his fingers smashed with a sledge hammer, followed by his wrists and his elbows and so on. He had never felt this kind of pain before, and it was worse than a bully pouring lemon juice over an open wound. His clothing was soaked with blood and he heard the chanting voice of Naraku as it grew closer, the chanting of foreign and unknown words. However they were familiar to InuYasha and as his throat closed in around him, sharp jabbing pains stabbing him he could see the light blue glow of his skin. Something was happening because of those words and it hit him instantly.
They were the words that he had heard being whispered into the wind as he buried Kikyo that one day in the snow. Those words were like whispers in his ears, slurred words, but familiar enough to be recognized. It had been Onigumo who had made him who he was, put the plans into actions that had killed one love and was now threatening to murder him and the other. This was no coincident because more than one was saying something InuYasha couldn’t do a damn thing to stop it.
The breath from his lungs pour out of his lips and all the warmth he had once held vanished like a passing glance. Torture, this was pure torture and he couldn’t save himself, he couldn’t save Kagome and his amber eyes were wide with fear of knowing how pathetic he had come to be. How ashamed his father would be if he were still alive by how easily InuYasha was being destroyed. His feet had gone numb, he couldn’t feel them and the loss of feeling was steadily going up.
His vision danced across his eyes as he gasped for air, and the hole in his chest grabbed his attention as a spark of yellow emerged. Something like a light was coming from it and he had the faintest clue to what it was, his soul. His heart was pounding frantically in his chest, to the point of bursting and his clawed hand tried to force the light back into his body. He looked like a fool as he clamped his palms over his heart, his thighs going numb and the light seeping through his flesh. This was the end for him, and the chanting wouldn’t cease, he could hear it along with Naraku’s evil laughter, it was blaring in his ears and drowning everything out.
There was no escape.
A loud howl broke threw and the chanting stopped, InuYasha could once again breathe. More loud howls came from the forest and Naraku’s death glare was like nothing imaginable. Wolves stepped out from behind the large trees of the forest, their yellow eyes glowing, their gray bodies so close they looked like fog creeping into the village. Their howls were like whispers of death and as InuYasha’s amber eyes darted lazily over the oncoming pack he could feel her aura, Kaede always knew when to appear.
“You fucking cunt!” Naraku screamed at the animals, his blood red eyes focusing onto the largest gray wolf. “I killed you! How could you still live?”
The wolves surrounded the evil demon Naraku, their eyes glowing yellow with evil intent, they were the bringers of death. The guardians of the unknown and they had come to claim their prize. They circled him with their blood thirsty eyes, their white as snow teeth glistening as they growled. Yips and yaps were loud as gunshots and Naraku’s tentacles swiped at all of them, some missing and others colliding with the bodies only for them to disappear into a cloud of smoke.
Some of the villagers who were too frightened to move could only watch as the one man they believed to be their holy savior fight of a pack of wolves that seemed to be nothing more than apparitions. The hell fire still rising to the sky, its green and black flames reaching to the clouds and tainting them with their evil color. They had been blinded by their emotions and they had condemned an innocent girl to die, and now they would all pay the price. A flash of gray darted out of the forest greenery and a loud angry scream rung out through the village. Naraku’s tentacles shot out everywhere as he tried to fight off the lone wolf digging her powerful jaws into his shoulder. His bone shields were useless and he only impaled himself with his tentacles as he struggled to get the beast off his back.
Yellow eyes burned pink and white jaws became stained with blood as Naraku screamed, his claws digging into gray fur and tearing the wolf from his body, a piece of flesh and muscle ripping from him. The wolf hit the ground and rolled to a stop next to the silver hair hanyou who was trying his best to get to his feet. His right arm clutched his chest, hiding the large hole from anyone’s view. The wolves gave him a chance to fight, broken the concentration and the spell which Naraku had almost succeeded in killing him with, Kaede had given him all he needed to survive.
‘InuYasha,’ her voice stuttered painfully, and he went to where she lay. ‘I wont last much longer, my time is almost up. Please save my granddaughter, save her and give her the life you both deserve.’
“I promise Kaede,” He whispered running his claws through the matted fur.
Golden eyes connected with each other and the body of the wolf began to shrink. The fur falling from the body and her eyes glassing over and turning silver. InuYasha could only watch in awe as the once elderly woman’s spirit turned from wolf into a long piece of metal. To him it looked like a holy light and once fade he laid his eye on a magnificent sword.
‘Use it well InuYasha,’ Kaede whispered into the wind. ‘Only you can rid this world of the evil it has created.’
Gathering his bearings, InuYasha picked up the sword and stood to his feet. He would do as she asked because she had always been there for him, through thick and thin and Naraku would pay for ruining all of their lives. The said demon cowered in pain as he held his bleeding shoulder, blood red eyes glaring at the hanyou, they still had fight left in them and the last one standing would be victorious. The bringers of death turned to InuYasha and ran at him and he could only watch in fear and uncertainty as they jumped and disappeared into his sword, transforming it from a very old looking katana into a fang of enormous size.
“Even if you kill me now,” Naraku spat as he stood, bringing his blade to face his enemy. “There is no way that you can save her. The hell fire will consume all human and I doubt even you can make it out once you’ve jumped in. Either way InuYasha, the gates of hell will open and swallow this world. My master cannot lose this time.”
Swords clashed together as they fought and claws swiped strategically trying to get the better of the other. Black and silver hair swirled around in a eerie dance of battle. Neither of them were willing to allow the other any sign of victory and each time the blades came together a flash of lightening erupted from the sky. Naraku’s tentacles surged from his body and into InuYasha’s and with a cry of pain the hanyou fell to his knees, the blade sticking out of the ground held by his hands, this was it. Tired laughter came from Naraku’s lips as he wiped away the blood from his face, he was going to go in for the kill. Muscles twitched as he dug his tentacles deeper into his enemy’s body, he was going to absorb the hanyou into his body once and for all. Enough games, he had no more time for playing with children, this was a demon’s turn to shine, and shine he would.
Walking to where InuYasha barely stood, Naraku smiled it was like taking candy from a baby and soon he would have his new addition to his body and all would be said and done. Amber eyes glared daggers into his own and the hanyou muttered a few words under his breath and made Naraku raise a brow, the poor idiot was saying his last words already? Giving up so quickly, but then again, he wasn’t very surprised, many had done so in the past.
“What did you say InuYasha? Are you begging for me to spare your life?” Naraku cooed almost venomously, even if he did beg, there was no sparing something that he wanted.
“I said I promised her,” InuYasha’s hands tightened around the hilt and a flash of white pulsed from the blade and into his body. “I PROMISED AND I WON’T ABANDON HER!”
The sword InuYasha held, reacted and Naraku’s eyes grew wide as he tried to pull back, his tentacles stuck inside the hanyou’s body. He could feel the tingling pain as it coursed through his veins, infecting his entire being. The demon howled in pain as white jaws of death came from the sword and clamped around his arms and tentacles, pulling him into the metal of the blade. He fought like a animal caught in a trap, his body turning from his human for into a pile of demon and half demon parts, scales and extra limbs ripping his flesh. Wave after wave of pain coursed in his body and he clawed at anything that could keep him from being dragged into the sword but his claws found nothing.
InuYasha held onto the hilt of the sword like it was last lifeline until the heat in his blood died down and he could open his eyes. All he could see was the dancing flames of black and his stomach lurched, he couldn’t hear anything. Jumping to his feet InuYasha ran to the flames where he was certain Kagome was and held his breath as he jumped into it. He could feel the pain of other people as he tried to get to the other side, something pulling him back and something pulling him forwards. Whatever it was it wanted to tear him in half. Biting down on his lips till they bled, InuYasha tore at the flames until he was on the other side and pressed up against something burning hot.
It was Kagome and he felt his heart skip a beat, she looked so pale and clammy almost like the dead. Brushing his claws against her face, InuYasha pushed back the hair in her eyes before nearly weeping. He should have tried harder, pushed himself more so he could have gotten their earlier and saved her from this. He should have trusted his instinct and taken her from the jail cell and taken her away, he should have never taken her home the night before and letting them dishonor her name and family.
Cutting the rope from her body, InuYasha pulled Kagome into his arms and rested her head against his chest, he had to figure a way out of this mess without risking hers or his life. Wishing that he had Kaede’s imagination at the moment he took a deep breath before closing his eyes. He would have to gather his strength and pray that everything would be alright because his only choice was to go into the fire. There was nothing else, and he had to at least try.
The flames closed in and InuYasha darted into them, there was no pain but he didn’t stop, he couldn’t. His claws held onto Kagome and he pumped his legs, nothing would stop him and by the time he felt the coldness around him everything was quiet and his ears swiveled around his head. Opening his eyes, InuYasha found himself staring at nothing in particular, the once hell made fire was frozen solid and there were only a few villagers standing off a few yards away, their disbelieving eyes wide with unspoken fear. The mighty sword that had defeated Naraku was laying at his feet and he picked it up without hesitation. It was calling to him, whispering orders that he knew that he had to follow.
It directed him to the frozen fire and he felt power pulsing into his veins and he knew what to do. One swing that’s all it took, just one swing and the wind flew from the blade and shattered the fire, consuming everything and even the sword into sparkles of light. He had to blink a few times to get the dots of black from his vision and when he did, he could see the blue sky once again. Everything was back to normal. He turned towards the forest to leave and a sob was heard that drew his attention.
“Wait please,” it was a woman’s pleading cry and glancing back he saw a middle aged woman who resembled the girl in his arms and he figured it was her mother.
The woman ran to where InuYasha stood and in her brown eyes tears threatened to fall. She looked older than she should have been but he stayed quiet as she touched Kagome’s face. The way she trembled tugged at his heart and InuYasha wanted to cry himself, sorrow loved company, but he knew that he could not stay here, just like Kagome couldn’t. He would have to be on his way.
“Ma’am,” he wanted her to understand, yet there was a longing in his chest that he couldn’t recognize.
“Take care of my baby,” tears fell from sad eyes and InuYasha could only nod as the woman laid a kiss on Kagome’s forehead.
He felt the pain in losing someone close to him and he understood her pain but there was no way that he wasn’t going to take care of Kagome. He had fallen in love with her and nothing would ever change that, she was his and his until the day she died, and vise versa. Without saying another word, InuYasha left Kagome’s mother standing there and headed back in the direction of the forest. He had to do a few things still and time could not be wasted. Revenge hadn’t felt as great as he thought it would and in all honesty it left him feeling a little more emptier than before.
He was able to clear the name of a past love and save the new love from traveling down the same path that had been traveled before. Pulling Kagome closer to him as possible, he quickly ran towards the cave where he lived. It would be getting dark in a few hours and fire wood would have to be gathered so that they wouldn’t die of the cold. He had a lot to be thankful for lately, but he didn’t want to test his luck, not with someone as important as Kagome, he had to look after her now. She was his responsibility, and from then on she always would be.
~~oOo~~
All that she knew was that she was cold, her body shivering and her entire being feeling as though her lungs were frozen. She tried to claw at her throat but her arms were as heavy as logs and it was like was drowning, she couldn’t escape. Kagome wanted to scream but she couldn’t, nothing was working for her, her body was giving up and all she could do was think about dying this way. She wasn’t going to get the happy ending she wanted, she wasn’t going to get anything and hot tears fell from her eyes.
“Shhh, Kagome it’s okay,” she could hear his voice and the touch of something warm against her skin and she moaned.
Gentle fingers against her skin was pulling her mind from where it had been and Kagome found herself waking up from a deep sleep. Her heart was pounding in her chest and she thought it would just pop out of her throat and onto the floor. Her skin felt sticky and opening her eyes she blinked away the blur in her vision. Her muscles hurt and when she could see, Kagome stared directly into a pair of golden orbs clouded with worry. Hot tears pricked at the back of her eyes and she let out a shaky breath, it felt so good to see him again and she wanted to hold him but she couldn’t. Her arms hurt and they were too heavy for her to lift at the moment.
“InuYasha,” Her throat was sore and scratchy. “Am I dead?”
His soft chuckle made Kagome shiver and his eyes closed for a moment. She thought this was some strange dream and that at any moment she would wake up to find herself back in the dark cell waiting for death. His hand touched her cheek and the calloused thumb wiped away the tears that had fallen. If it was possible Kagome could have sworn that the light illuminating off the walls gave InuYasha a halo effect and he looked like the embodiment of everything pure.
“No,” he whispered leaning down to place a kiss on her forehead. “You’re not dead, I made sure of that.”
She found herself smiling at his expression and moving her arm she rested her hand over his. Everything would be okay now because it had dawned on her, if she was with him then Naraku was defeated, that InuYasha had saved her soul from eternal damnation. Sitting up, Kagome was aided by InuYasha and she blushed as the cold air hit her chest, she remembered this all too well. Letting out a surprised squeak, she clutched the fur pelts close to her body and glanced at the hanyou, a blush covering her face. He only smiled but she could see the need hidden in his eyes and felt something pulse in her body.
“Am I free?” There was something in the way that she said it that left InuYasha’s throat dry.
“Yeah,” he licked his lips. “You’re free.”
Kagome wrapped her arms around InuYasha’s body and held him close. Those words were all she needed to hear, they were the words that told her that there was no longer anything to worry about. She wanted to cry but held it back as she felt InuYasha’s arms circle around her and pulling her body close to the warmth that was him. Electricity ran through their bodies and the gentle caressing of his claws left gooseflesh on her skin. She had felt this way with InuYasha before and it was coming back to her as though it had never left.
Resting her hands on his cheeks, Kagome stared deeply into InuYasha’s amber orbs. She had fallen in love with him so long ago and sitting there in his arms felt so perfect that she couldn’t explain it with words. Her hops had come true and she realized that she would be with InuYasha forever, he had chosen her and her heart had chosen him.
Their lips met innocently at first, but as they came together again they molded to each other and it deepened. Her arms snaked around his neck as his mouth parted hers, his tongue dipping into her mouth to reclaim the essence he had almost lost forever. His clawed hand roamed the exposed flesh of her body, memorizing every dip and curve while the other held them up. There was this heat that poured from the other, this unquenchable thirst, a hunger that needed to be fed. InuYasha’s mouth swallowed Kagome’s moan as his hand pushed her into him, a spark of something greater capturing their hearts and bodies.
Pulling his lips away, InuYasha breathed heavily, kissing anything and everything that he could to hear Kagome’s wanton moans and mews grow louder. Her flesh was burning hot and laying her down onto the makeshift bed of fur pelts, he was able to look down at her and see the true beauty that was Kagome.
Her lips were swollen pink and her eyes were lidded, her ebony locks falling around her face and over her shoulders. It did something to him, it excited him and drove him crazy with want, a want that he could plainly feel in his loins. Just knowing that she was his wasn’t enough and he wanted to feel her skin against his, to feel everything possible. InuYasha wanted to have the ultimate pleasure with Kagome, to know the ultimate form of love.
“Oh gods Kagome,” he practically moaned, his bangs covering his eyes. “I love you so much it hurts.”
Leaning over her, his own hair tumbling down over them like a curtain he saw her eyes sparkling with life. Her tongue darted out between parted lips and moistened them only for her to return his declaration with her very own. It changed then and they could only follow their instincts, it was the only thing that made any sense. Capturing Kagome’s lips in a heated and demanding kiss, InuYasha pulled away the fur from her body and touched her flesh. Every second made an unspeakable passion grow and arching her back, Kagome moaned. Her body was aching for something, yearning for InuYasha and the heat pooling in her abdomen grew tenfold.
Her hands tugged at the article of clothing on his body as his mouth devoured hers, she wanted more, something that had only been experienced between a man and his wife. She wanted InuYasha in a way that was purely sinful outside the marriage bed. His body pressed against hers as his lips left hers to trail kisses down her jaw and neck and Kagome moaned loudly. She had never felt this way before and she parted her legs so she could have InuYasha as close as humanly possible. Her head was swimming, this was almost too much for her and she had to shut her eyes just to keep herself sane.
“Please InuYasha,” she pleaded arching into his teasing fingers and pressing against his body. “Oh god please.”
Her heart was pounding wildly as she pulled the tunic from his body and dropped it, her hands touching his skin almost feverishly. He rested himself between her legs and taking her hands into his own and entwining them, he pushed his hips against her heat. They both moaned in pleasure, Kagome’s arms pinned above her head and InuYasha fought back the urge to just plunge himself into her depths over and over until his erection faded. He was steadily losing all control to be gentle and when Kagome bucked into him, he almost tossed everything he had been told to do out the cave. It was going too fast and he didn’t want the moment to be spoiled by irrational thoughts.
Taking her wrists into one of his hands, InuYasha whispered softly into Kagome’s ear, his breath was coming out in heavy pants and his cock was aching but somehow he managed to calm them both down. Kissing her nose, InuYasha tried to steady his breathing and when he was able to he let Kagome go and sat up. He was hot and quickly pulled off his britches and crawled under the fur with Kagome. He may have been hot, but it was chilly and he didn’t want either of them catching a cold, again. Gently kissing Kagome, InuYasha let his hands roam her body, touching all that he could and using her moans as signs to continue. Their tongues danced with each other, battling for dominance and letting the need they felt to slowly rise and come to a head.
Inuyasha whispered reassuring words into Kagome’s ears as he rubbed his body against hers. They could have done so much more but he knew that they wouldn’t last much longer. He used his hand to guide himself to Kagome’s entrance and he groaned, she was so wet for him that he could barely contain himself. Her gasp was loud and carefully he inched himself into her body. Resting fully sheathed in Kagome’s womb, InuYasha bit down on his lips as he entwined his dingers with Kagome’s once again. He wanted this to be the most memorable moment for them. Taking a deep breath, InuYasha shifted his hips and when Kagome mewed loudly he knew it was safe.
His thrusts were slow at first as he tried to adjust himself and his speed. It drove Kagome crazy and she bucked her hips, increasing the friction and moaning when InuYasha hit a spot that made her vision dance across her eyes. As time passed their passion and lust escalated along with their movements. It wasn’t long until InuYasha was pounding desperately into Kagome, her body arching off the ground and her head thrown back. His body thrusted hard and wantonly as his mouth searched for Kagome’s and he plunged his tongue into her mouth mimicking his body’s action.
Finding himself too close, InuYasha released one of Kagome’s hands and let it travel down her body till it reached her nether regions. Her gasp was loud but she cried out as he dipped his finger into her nether lips and brushed against her clit. Kagome’s hips bucked wildly as he continued to tease her slick pearl, his cock pounding into her core relentlessly. Her muscles clenched around his erection almost painfully as she climaxed. Her core pulsing around him until he lost control and came crying her name out into the night. Their sweat slicked bodies molded together and when his now flaccid penis slipped from Kagome’s body, they both moaned in disappointment.
InuYasha cradled Kagome’s body to his own, kissing her brown and holding her close. It had turned out to be better than expected and he was relieved that he didn’t choke like he thought he would. Resting his head on his arm, he bit back a tired yawn, he was more exhausted than he already had been and now his muscles were aching. Closing his eyes, he listened to Kagome’s breathing and eventually he fell into a blissful sleep.
“So did they live in that cave forever grandma?” A small voice asked innocently.
The fire crackled and the gray hair woman glanced over to the white hair man to her left. Their hands sat on the arm of the chair entwined and looking into dark eye she smiled. IN the room with them were two barely teenaged children, both girls, a middle aged man with a mustache and a beautifully aged woman. Yes, a small family gathered by a fireplace sipping hot apple cider and listening to a story that unlike time, never grew old.
“No my love they didn’t,” a baritone voice replied. “They stayed in that cave until the first signs of spring and with Kitsune Fox as their guide, they traveled Southwest to unknown lands of adventure.”
“Did they have a family grandpa?” The other piped energetically with hands clasped tightly together. “Did he stay half demon? Did their kids have dog-ears too?”
Soft knowing laughter came from the elderly couple and they gave the two girls reassuring smiles. “No, he didn’t stay half demon for long dear. With Onigumo’s evil spell broken, InuYasha eventually turned human again, although some things did remain the same for the better. His strength was still quite inhuman along with his senses, but other than that he was like your father and me are now, just human.”
“So no, their kids didn’t have dog-ears,” the woman replied gently. “And though it would have been a remarkable sight, fate had decided on a different path for them. Kagome and InuYasha didn’t stay in one place for long, their thirst for adventure took them almost everywhere and they loved each other like no other person could. However, that my loves, is a story for another time.”
Groans of protest were heard and the two girls rose from their seats, the story had ended and like they had promised, it was time for bed. Hugs and kisses were exchanged and soon the two of them were left alone with each other and the roaring fire. The elderly man got to his feet and shuffled over to his wife, sitting down next to her, his dark eyes sparkling with life and love.
“I always knew you missed my ears Kagome,” his voice was husky as he kissed her hand.
“I did, but I didn’t know that I really loved you until you fought that little boy for me back in Salem.” She replied gazing into the fire. “I always thought that if you would willing fight Koga for my sake and honor like that you really cared for me. I’m glad that you decided to find me that day in the snow all those years ago.”
“You’re mistaken Kagome,” InuYasha said softly. “It was you who found me and innocently bewitched me into loving you.”
Leaning over, InuYasha placed a chaste kiss on Kagome’s lips and together they held hands and watched the dancing fire, recalling all the adventures they had together and everything that they were given. Life, it was something that they had decided not to take for granted, and lady luck had graced them with a loving family to grow old with, and each other. They were happy, and they always would be.
The End.
E/N: It wasn't the original ending that I had planned over a year ago, but I really liked this one better. I spent more than 7 hours on this today trying to finish it up, and I really hope that I did a good job.

Chapter Nine
The very second that they torch hit the hay, it was set ablaze. It had been so fast that nobody had the chance to blink and despite what they felt, gasps of surprise fell from their lips. Fire, it was everywhere, circling Kagome like a ring of death and her eyes were drawn to it, she couldn’t look away. The flames closed in around her, the heat seeping into her skin and making her sweat. Her heart pounded wildly in her chest, she couldn’t breathe. Smoke pillowed around her like a curtain and she choked on it.
To everyone outside the perimeter, the fire looked like a forbidden dance, the dance of the damned, of the very flames of hell. It was a sin to watch but a sin to look away. It drew closer to Kagome, nearly nipping at her flesh and singeing her clothes, and at one point catching a light. She screamed then, a loud shrill scared scream that sent shudders through every villager. Her mother wailed loudly begging for the madness to end, for the life of her daughter to be spared, but Naraku stood there a few feet away from the flames, his arms over his chest. Black eyes stared into the flames, hiding his smirk, but barely.
An echo roared from the forest surrounding Salem, a howl of animalistic anger, the bringer of death was coming. Wind blew fiercely and as another howl erupted from the forest, a flash of silver escaped from the tops of the trees and headed directly towards the crowd. Villagers screamed in fear and fled as a figure stood crouched on the ground, golden eyes filled with hatred staring down the head man of the town. The beast was calling him out.
InuYasha was angry, he was out for blood. It was revenge for the death of Kikyo, for him, and for Kagome. He wouldn’t leave until he had ripped the flesh from the foul being’s body and left him nothing but a blood mass of nothing. Growling loudly he stood up, his claws flexed and his muscles stiff, this was the first and last fight. Good against evil, there would be nothing held back, this fight was for the whole cake.
“NARAKU!” InuYasha was loud and commanding, his silver hair blowing all around him.
Laughter rang out, malicious laughter that curdled the blood of any and all who witnessed the scene before them. The fire surrounding Kagome had turned purple and black, the smoke filling the sky and turning it red and orange like the sunsets in the summer. There was something horribly wrong in Salem, the devil was going to show its face once and for all.
“InuYasha,” Naraku chuckled evilly. “We both know what it is that you want, but honestly do you think that you’ll be able to save her now? This Onigumo will not allow you to take what is rightfully mine! I will have this town as my own. The gateway to eternal suffering will no longer be delayed because of selfish nothings.”
“I WON’T LET YOU HAVE HER!” InuYasha screamed.
InuYasha attacked. His claws were bared and his eyes were narrowed into slits. He was like a flash of lightening as he surged forward, swiping his claws at Naraku, he would take no prisoners. No mercy. Naraku was able to dodge the initial attack and it sent InuYasha almost stumbling to the ground, almost. The air grew thick with something, and Black eyes widened and turned red. The demon was coming out of his shell. Pale flesh tore at the seams, the once human body expanding into a giant of a beast. Sickening green and brown tentacles broke free and tore black hair from Naraku’s scalp. Blood oozed from fingertips which expanded into sharp and yellow claws.
It was a transformation out of the book of Satan, clothing ripped and the pieces that touched the ground burst in to green flames. InuYasha watched in disgust as Naraku took shape, his body merely lumps of something else, carcasses of what looked to be insects and pieces of animals that had been taken in. Bones of animals circled down his back and looked like shields, his head taking the form of Onigumo, the man who had betrayed InuYasha in the past. Red eyes, that’s all he focused on as flesh melted, turning into blue cloth and which shrunk the demon’s body into the shape of a man. He was reconstructing himself. This demon Naraku, Onigumo, or whatever he called himself was like the water, never the same thing twice.
He laughed as his skin turned olive and his body was complete. The sword in his hand humming, wishing for the blood of a half demon who had never been fully transformed. He had been doing this for centuries, turning humans into demons, letting the evil fill their souls and when the time came, absorbing them into his being as his own creation, thus making him more powerful. It was how the cycle worked. Only the strong would survive, and he was the strongest of them all. Villagers watched in disbelief and some fainted from the sight. To think that the leader of their village was nothing but a demon in disguise, the town of Salem was a harem for sin, a breeding ground for evil.
“How do you like my true form InuYasha?” Naraku sneered watching the said half demon, his red eyes burning holes into flesh. “Soon you will be a part of this body, and I will show these pathetic humans the true meaning of suffering. You will not escape me half breed, I made you what you are and now I will take what’s mine."
InuYasha was distracted by a shrill scream of Kagome from the swirling fire of greens and blacks, the flames dancing with an eerie magic. It was like a funnel of air swirling around making the fire compress as if it was slowly closing in around the girl and InuYasha darted for her. He couldn’t let her die like that, he wouldn’t allow Naraku to win, not after everything that had happened. Blood, the smell of her blood filled his nostril and before he could leap into the swirling fire of death, his ears twitched and he barely had enough time to try and doge the attack.
Spinning on his heels, InuYasha was thrown across the ground, a large brown tentacle springing from Naraku’s body and impaling itself into InuYasha’s bicep. He cried out in pain and clawed at it, trying to tear it from his body as it tingled. The bastard was laughing at him and it angered him, filled his heart with the hate he had felt earlier, it kept him going strong. His eyes darted around and lunging to his left, InuYasha was able to fake a left and throw a punch, his fist missing, but his claws taking with them a nice chunk of flesh from Naraku’s body.
He had to keep an eye on the sword that Naraku carried in his hand as it swung too close for comfort next to his head, it would prove to be a disadvantage. Barely able to avoid the next tentacle that came at him InuYasha changed his strategy, what he had wasn’t working for him and managing to jump behind the incarnate of evil, InuYasha tore at flesh with his claws, red blood spilling everywhere.
There was no scream of pain like he was expecting, but laughter, Naraku just laughed as he turned to face the hanyou, his blood red eyes glowing with malicious intent. Lifting the blade of the sword, he said one word under his breath and it began to glow yellow, an aura that InuYasha’s instincts were screaming to duck for cover. However, it happened in less than the blink of an eye and a stream of lightening poured from the blade and struck InuYasha full force. His body felt like he was being ripped off, like he was being skinned alive as the small puncture wound in his chest grew.
He screamed as his skin stretched and flesh tore, small trickles of blood escaping the expanding wound and InuYasha couldn’t stop it. He could only watch in horror as his muscles twitched violently, starting to spasm and turning practically into jelly. InuYasha crashed to his knees and he tried to cover the whole now roughly the size of a fifty scent piece, hoping that he could stop it, but jolts of pain only ripped through his bones.
“Are you feeling it yet InuYasha?” Naraku laughed viciously as he kicked the hanyou’s side causing InuYasha to cry out and skid backwards a few feet on his back. “The tingling goes away you know, only to be replaced with agony as your soul is torn from your body and absorbed into my own.”
The pain which he spoke of, InuYasha could feel it coursing in his veins and he fought back his screams. It was like having each of his fingers smashed with a sledge hammer, followed by his wrists and his elbows and so on. He had never felt this kind of pain before, and it was worse than a bully pouring lemon juice over an open wound. His clothing was soaked with blood and he heard the chanting voice of Naraku as it grew closer, the chanting of foreign and unknown words. However they were familiar to InuYasha and as his throat closed in around him, sharp jabbing pains stabbing him he could see the light blue glow of his skin. Something was happening because of those words and it hit him instantly.
They were the words that he had heard being whispered into the wind as he buried Kikyo that one day in the snow. Those words were like whispers in his ears, slurred words, but familiar enough to be recognized. It had been Onigumo who had made him who he was, put the plans into actions that had killed one love and was now threatening to murder him and the other. This was no coincident because more than one was saying something InuYasha couldn’t do a damn thing to stop it.
The breath from his lungs pour out of his lips and all the warmth he had once held vanished like a passing glance. Torture, this was pure torture and he couldn’t save himself, he couldn’t save Kagome and his amber eyes were wide with fear of knowing how pathetic he had come to be. How ashamed his father would be if he were still alive by how easily InuYasha was being destroyed. His feet had gone numb, he couldn’t feel them and the loss of feeling was steadily going up.
His vision danced across his eyes as he gasped for air, and the hole in his chest grabbed his attention as a spark of yellow emerged. Something like a light was coming from it and he had the faintest clue to what it was, his soul. His heart was pounding frantically in his chest, to the point of bursting and his clawed hand tried to force the light back into his body. He looked like a fool as he clamped his palms over his heart, his thighs going numb and the light seeping through his flesh. This was the end for him, and the chanting wouldn’t cease, he could hear it along with Naraku’s evil laughter, it was blaring in his ears and drowning everything out.
There was no escape.
A loud howl broke threw and the chanting stopped, InuYasha could once again breathe. More loud howls came from the forest and Naraku’s death glare was like nothing imaginable. Wolves stepped out from behind the large trees of the forest, their yellow eyes glowing, their gray bodies so close they looked like fog creeping into the village. Their howls were like whispers of death and as InuYasha’s amber eyes darted lazily over the oncoming pack he could feel her aura, Kaede always knew when to appear.
“You fucking cunt!” Naraku screamed at the animals, his blood red eyes focusing onto the largest gray wolf. “I killed you! How could you still live?”
The wolves surrounded the evil demon Naraku, their eyes glowing yellow with evil intent, they were the bringers of death. The guardians of the unknown and they had come to claim their prize. They circled him with their blood thirsty eyes, their white as snow teeth glistening as they growled. Yips and yaps were loud as gunshots and Naraku’s tentacles swiped at all of them, some missing and others colliding with the bodies only for them to disappear into a cloud of smoke.
Some of the villagers who were too frightened to move could only watch as the one man they believed to be their holy savior fight of a pack of wolves that seemed to be nothing more than apparitions. The hell fire still rising to the sky, its green and black flames reaching to the clouds and tainting them with their evil color. They had been blinded by their emotions and they had condemned an innocent girl to die, and now they would all pay the price. A flash of gray darted out of the forest greenery and a loud angry scream rung out through the village. Naraku’s tentacles shot out everywhere as he tried to fight off the lone wolf digging her powerful jaws into his shoulder. His bone shields were useless and he only impaled himself with his tentacles as he struggled to get the beast off his back.
Yellow eyes burned pink and white jaws became stained with blood as Naraku screamed, his claws digging into gray fur and tearing the wolf from his body, a piece of flesh and muscle ripping from him. The wolf hit the ground and rolled to a stop next to the silver hair hanyou who was trying his best to get to his feet. His right arm clutched his chest, hiding the large hole from anyone’s view. The wolves gave him a chance to fight, broken the concentration and the spell which Naraku had almost succeeded in killing him with, Kaede had given him all he needed to survive.
‘InuYasha,’ her voice stuttered painfully, and he went to where she lay. ‘I wont last much longer, my time is almost up. Please save my granddaughter, save her and give her the life you both deserve.’
“I promise Kaede,” He whispered running his claws through the matted fur.
Golden eyes connected with each other and the body of the wolf began to shrink. The fur falling from the body and her eyes glassing over and turning silver. InuYasha could only watch in awe as the once elderly woman’s spirit turned from wolf into a long piece of metal. To him it looked like a holy light and once fade he laid his eye on a magnificent sword.
‘Use it well InuYasha,’ Kaede whispered into the wind. ‘Only you can rid this world of the evil it has created.’
Gathering his bearings, InuYasha picked up the sword and stood to his feet. He would do as she asked because she had always been there for him, through thick and thin and Naraku would pay for ruining all of their lives. The said demon cowered in pain as he held his bleeding shoulder, blood red eyes glaring at the hanyou, they still had fight left in them and the last one standing would be victorious. The bringers of death turned to InuYasha and ran at him and he could only watch in fear and uncertainty as they jumped and disappeared into his sword, transforming it from a very old looking katana into a fang of enormous size.
“Even if you kill me now,” Naraku spat as he stood, bringing his blade to face his enemy. “There is no way that you can save her. The hell fire will consume all human and I doubt even you can make it out once you’ve jumped in. Either way InuYasha, the gates of hell will open and swallow this world. My master cannot lose this time.”
Swords clashed together as they fought and claws swiped strategically trying to get the better of the other. Black and silver hair swirled around in a eerie dance of battle. Neither of them were willing to allow the other any sign of victory and each time the blades came together a flash of lightening erupted from the sky. Naraku’s tentacles surged from his body and into InuYasha’s and with a cry of pain the hanyou fell to his knees, the blade sticking out of the ground held by his hands, this was it. Tired laughter came from Naraku’s lips as he wiped away the blood from his face, he was going to go in for the kill. Muscles twitched as he dug his tentacles deeper into his enemy’s body, he was going to absorb the hanyou into his body once and for all. Enough games, he had no more time for playing with children, this was a demon’s turn to shine, and shine he would.
Walking to where InuYasha barely stood, Naraku smiled it was like taking candy from a baby and soon he would have his new addition to his body and all would be said and done. Amber eyes glared daggers into his own and the hanyou muttered a few words under his breath and made Naraku raise a brow, the poor idiot was saying his last words already? Giving up so quickly, but then again, he wasn’t very surprised, many had done so in the past.
“What did you say InuYasha? Are you begging for me to spare your life?” Naraku cooed almost venomously, even if he did beg, there was no sparing something that he wanted.
“I said I promised her,” InuYasha’s hands tightened around the hilt and a flash of white pulsed from the blade and into his body. “I PROMISED AND I WON’T ABANDON HER!”
The sword InuYasha held, reacted and Naraku’s eyes grew wide as he tried to pull back, his tentacles stuck inside the hanyou’s body. He could feel the tingling pain as it coursed through his veins, infecting his entire being. The demon howled in pain as white jaws of death came from the sword and clamped around his arms and tentacles, pulling him into the metal of the blade. He fought like a animal caught in a trap, his body turning from his human for into a pile of demon and half demon parts, scales and extra limbs ripping his flesh. Wave after wave of pain coursed in his body and he clawed at anything that could keep him from being dragged into the sword but his claws found nothing.
InuYasha held onto the hilt of the sword like it was last lifeline until the heat in his blood died down and he could open his eyes. All he could see was the dancing flames of black and his stomach lurched, he couldn’t hear anything. Jumping to his feet InuYasha ran to the flames where he was certain Kagome was and held his breath as he jumped into it. He could feel the pain of other people as he tried to get to the other side, something pulling him back and something pulling him forwards. Whatever it was it wanted to tear him in half. Biting down on his lips till they bled, InuYasha tore at the flames until he was on the other side and pressed up against something burning hot.
It was Kagome and he felt his heart skip a beat, she looked so pale and clammy almost like the dead. Brushing his claws against her face, InuYasha pushed back the hair in her eyes before nearly weeping. He should have tried harder, pushed himself more so he could have gotten their earlier and saved her from this. He should have trusted his instinct and taken her from the jail cell and taken her away, he should have never taken her home the night before and letting them dishonor her name and family.
Cutting the rope from her body, InuYasha pulled Kagome into his arms and rested her head against his chest, he had to figure a way out of this mess without risking hers or his life. Wishing that he had Kaede’s imagination at the moment he took a deep breath before closing his eyes. He would have to gather his strength and pray that everything would be alright because his only choice was to go into the fire. There was nothing else, and he had to at least try.
The flames closed in and InuYasha darted into them, there was no pain but he didn’t stop, he couldn’t. His claws held onto Kagome and he pumped his legs, nothing would stop him and by the time he felt the coldness around him everything was quiet and his ears swiveled around his head. Opening his eyes, InuYasha found himself staring at nothing in particular, the once hell made fire was frozen solid and there were only a few villagers standing off a few yards away, their disbelieving eyes wide with unspoken fear. The mighty sword that had defeated Naraku was laying at his feet and he picked it up without hesitation. It was calling to him, whispering orders that he knew that he had to follow.
It directed him to the frozen fire and he felt power pulsing into his veins and he knew what to do. One swing that’s all it took, just one swing and the wind flew from the blade and shattered the fire, consuming everything and even the sword into sparkles of light. He had to blink a few times to get the dots of black from his vision and when he did, he could see the blue sky once again. Everything was back to normal. He turned towards the forest to leave and a sob was heard that drew his attention.
“Wait please,” it was a woman’s pleading cry and glancing back he saw a middle aged woman who resembled the girl in his arms and he figured it was her mother.
The woman ran to where InuYasha stood and in her brown eyes tears threatened to fall. She looked older than she should have been but he stayed quiet as she touched Kagome’s face. The way she trembled tugged at his heart and InuYasha wanted to cry himself, sorrow loved company, but he knew that he could not stay here, just like Kagome couldn’t. He would have to be on his way.
“Ma’am,” he wanted her to understand, yet there was a longing in his chest that he couldn’t recognize.
“Take care of my baby,” tears fell from sad eyes and InuYasha could only nod as the woman laid a kiss on Kagome’s forehead.
He felt the pain in losing someone close to him and he understood her pain but there was no way that he wasn’t going to take care of Kagome. He had fallen in love with her and nothing would ever change that, she was his and his until the day she died, and vise versa. Without saying another word, InuYasha left Kagome’s mother standing there and headed back in the direction of the forest. He had to do a few things still and time could not be wasted. Revenge hadn’t felt as great as he thought it would and in all honesty it left him feeling a little more emptier than before.
He was able to clear the name of a past love and save the new love from traveling down the same path that had been traveled before. Pulling Kagome closer to him as possible, he quickly ran towards the cave where he lived. It would be getting dark in a few hours and fire wood would have to be gathered so that they wouldn’t die of the cold. He had a lot to be thankful for lately, but he didn’t want to test his luck, not with someone as important as Kagome, he had to look after her now. She was his responsibility, and from then on she always would be.
~~oOo~~
All that she knew was that she was cold, her body shivering and her entire being feeling as though her lungs were frozen. She tried to claw at her throat but her arms were as heavy as logs and it was like was drowning, she couldn’t escape. Kagome wanted to scream but she couldn’t, nothing was working for her, her body was giving up and all she could do was think about dying this way. She wasn’t going to get the happy ending she wanted, she wasn’t going to get anything and hot tears fell from her eyes.
“Shhh, Kagome it’s okay,” she could hear his voice and the touch of something warm against her skin and she moaned.
Gentle fingers against her skin was pulling her mind from where it had been and Kagome found herself waking up from a deep sleep. Her heart was pounding in her chest and she thought it would just pop out of her throat and onto the floor. Her skin felt sticky and opening her eyes she blinked away the blur in her vision. Her muscles hurt and when she could see, Kagome stared directly into a pair of golden orbs clouded with worry. Hot tears pricked at the back of her eyes and she let out a shaky breath, it felt so good to see him again and she wanted to hold him but she couldn’t. Her arms hurt and they were too heavy for her to lift at the moment.
“InuYasha,” Her throat was sore and scratchy. “Am I dead?”
His soft chuckle made Kagome shiver and his eyes closed for a moment. She thought this was some strange dream and that at any moment she would wake up to find herself back in the dark cell waiting for death. His hand touched her cheek and the calloused thumb wiped away the tears that had fallen. If it was possible Kagome could have sworn that the light illuminating off the walls gave InuYasha a halo effect and he looked like the embodiment of everything pure.
“No,” he whispered leaning down to place a kiss on her forehead. “You’re not dead, I made sure of that.”
She found herself smiling at his expression and moving her arm she rested her hand over his. Everything would be okay now because it had dawned on her, if she was with him then Naraku was defeated, that InuYasha had saved her soul from eternal damnation. Sitting up, Kagome was aided by InuYasha and she blushed as the cold air hit her chest, she remembered this all too well. Letting out a surprised squeak, she clutched the fur pelts close to her body and glanced at the hanyou, a blush covering her face. He only smiled but she could see the need hidden in his eyes and felt something pulse in her body.
“Am I free?” There was something in the way that she said it that left InuYasha’s throat dry.
“Yeah,” he licked his lips. “You’re free.”
Kagome wrapped her arms around InuYasha’s body and held him close. Those words were all she needed to hear, they were the words that told her that there was no longer anything to worry about. She wanted to cry but held it back as she felt InuYasha’s arms circle around her and pulling her body close to the warmth that was him. Electricity ran through their bodies and the gentle caressing of his claws left gooseflesh on her skin. She had felt this way with InuYasha before and it was coming back to her as though it had never left.
Resting her hands on his cheeks, Kagome stared deeply into InuYasha’s amber orbs. She had fallen in love with him so long ago and sitting there in his arms felt so perfect that she couldn’t explain it with words. Her hops had come true and she realized that she would be with InuYasha forever, he had chosen her and her heart had chosen him.
Their lips met innocently at first, but as they came together again they molded to each other and it deepened. Her arms snaked around his neck as his mouth parted hers, his tongue dipping into her mouth to reclaim the essence he had almost lost forever. His clawed hand roamed the exposed flesh of her body, memorizing every dip and curve while the other held them up. There was this heat that poured from the other, this unquenchable thirst, a hunger that needed to be fed. InuYasha’s mouth swallowed Kagome’s moan as his hand pushed her into him, a spark of something greater capturing their hearts and bodies.
Pulling his lips away, InuYasha breathed heavily, kissing anything and everything that he could to hear Kagome’s wanton moans and mews grow louder. Her flesh was burning hot and laying her down onto the makeshift bed of fur pelts, he was able to look down at her and see the true beauty that was Kagome.
Her lips were swollen pink and her eyes were lidded, her ebony locks falling around her face and over her shoulders. It did something to him, it excited him and drove him crazy with want, a want that he could plainly feel in his loins. Just knowing that she was his wasn’t enough and he wanted to feel her skin against his, to feel everything possible. InuYasha wanted to have the ultimate pleasure with Kagome, to know the ultimate form of love.
“Oh gods Kagome,” he practically moaned, his bangs covering his eyes. “I love you so much it hurts.”
Leaning over her, his own hair tumbling down over them like a curtain he saw her eyes sparkling with life. Her tongue darted out between parted lips and moistened them only for her to return his declaration with her very own. It changed then and they could only follow their instincts, it was the only thing that made any sense. Capturing Kagome’s lips in a heated and demanding kiss, InuYasha pulled away the fur from her body and touched her flesh. Every second made an unspeakable passion grow and arching her back, Kagome moaned. Her body was aching for something, yearning for InuYasha and the heat pooling in her abdomen grew tenfold.
Her hands tugged at the article of clothing on his body as his mouth devoured hers, she wanted more, something that had only been experienced between a man and his wife. She wanted InuYasha in a way that was purely sinful outside the marriage bed. His body pressed against hers as his lips left hers to trail kisses down her jaw and neck and Kagome moaned loudly. She had never felt this way before and she parted her legs so she could have InuYasha as close as humanly possible. Her head was swimming, this was almost too much for her and she had to shut her eyes just to keep herself sane.
“Please InuYasha,” she pleaded arching into his teasing fingers and pressing against his body. “Oh god please.”
Her heart was pounding wildly as she pulled the tunic from his body and dropped it, her hands touching his skin almost feverishly. He rested himself between her legs and taking her hands into his own and entwining them, he pushed his hips against her heat. They both moaned in pleasure, Kagome’s arms pinned above her head and InuYasha fought back the urge to just plunge himself into her depths over and over until his erection faded. He was steadily losing all control to be gentle and when Kagome bucked into him, he almost tossed everything he had been told to do out the cave. It was going too fast and he didn’t want the moment to be spoiled by irrational thoughts.
Taking her wrists into one of his hands, InuYasha whispered softly into Kagome’s ear, his breath was coming out in heavy pants and his cock was aching but somehow he managed to calm them both down. Kissing her nose, InuYasha tried to steady his breathing and when he was able to he let Kagome go and sat up. He was hot and quickly pulled off his britches and crawled under the fur with Kagome. He may have been hot, but it was chilly and he didn’t want either of them catching a cold, again. Gently kissing Kagome, InuYasha let his hands roam her body, touching all that he could and using her moans as signs to continue. Their tongues danced with each other, battling for dominance and letting the need they felt to slowly rise and come to a head.
Inuyasha whispered reassuring words into Kagome’s ears as he rubbed his body against hers. They could have done so much more but he knew that they wouldn’t last much longer. He used his hand to guide himself to Kagome’s entrance and he groaned, she was so wet for him that he could barely contain himself. Her gasp was loud and carefully he inched himself into her body. Resting fully sheathed in Kagome’s womb, InuYasha bit down on his lips as he entwined his dingers with Kagome’s once again. He wanted this to be the most memorable moment for them. Taking a deep breath, InuYasha shifted his hips and when Kagome mewed loudly he knew it was safe.
His thrusts were slow at first as he tried to adjust himself and his speed. It drove Kagome crazy and she bucked her hips, increasing the friction and moaning when InuYasha hit a spot that made her vision dance across her eyes. As time passed their passion and lust escalated along with their movements. It wasn’t long until InuYasha was pounding desperately into Kagome, her body arching off the ground and her head thrown back. His body thrusted hard and wantonly as his mouth searched for Kagome’s and he plunged his tongue into her mouth mimicking his body’s action.
Finding himself too close, InuYasha released one of Kagome’s hands and let it travel down her body till it reached her nether regions. Her gasp was loud but she cried out as he dipped his finger into her nether lips and brushed against her clit. Kagome’s hips bucked wildly as he continued to tease her slick pearl, his cock pounding into her core relentlessly. Her muscles clenched around his erection almost painfully as she climaxed. Her core pulsing around him until he lost control and came crying her name out into the night. Their sweat slicked bodies molded together and when his now flaccid penis slipped from Kagome’s body, they both moaned in disappointment.
InuYasha cradled Kagome’s body to his own, kissing her brown and holding her close. It had turned out to be better than expected and he was relieved that he didn’t choke like he thought he would. Resting his head on his arm, he bit back a tired yawn, he was more exhausted than he already had been and now his muscles were aching. Closing his eyes, he listened to Kagome’s breathing and eventually he fell into a blissful sleep.
“So did they live in that cave forever grandma?” A small voice asked innocently.
The fire crackled and the gray hair woman glanced over to the white hair man to her left. Their hands sat on the arm of the chair entwined and looking into dark eye she smiled. IN the room with them were two barely teenaged children, both girls, a middle aged man with a mustache and a beautifully aged woman. Yes, a small family gathered by a fireplace sipping hot apple cider and listening to a story that unlike time, never grew old.
“No my love they didn’t,” a baritone voice replied. “They stayed in that cave until the first signs of spring and with Kitsune Fox as their guide, they traveled Southwest to unknown lands of adventure.”
“Did they have a family grandpa?” The other piped energetically with hands clasped tightly together. “Did he stay half demon? Did their kids have dog-ears too?”
Soft knowing laughter came from the elderly couple and they gave the two girls reassuring smiles. “No, he didn’t stay half demon for long dear. With Onigumo’s evil spell broken, InuYasha eventually turned human again, although some things did remain the same for the better. His strength was still quite inhuman along with his senses, but other than that he was like your father and me are now, just human.”
“So no, their kids didn’t have dog-ears,” the woman replied gently. “And though it would have been a remarkable sight, fate had decided on a different path for them. Kagome and InuYasha didn’t stay in one place for long, their thirst for adventure took them almost everywhere and they loved each other like no other person could. However, that my loves, is a story for another time.”
Groans of protest were heard and the two girls rose from their seats, the story had ended and like they had promised, it was time for bed. Hugs and kisses were exchanged and soon the two of them were left alone with each other and the roaring fire. The elderly man got to his feet and shuffled over to his wife, sitting down next to her, his dark eyes sparkling with life and love.
“I always knew you missed my ears Kagome,” his voice was husky as he kissed her hand.
“I did, but I didn’t know that I really loved you until you fought that little boy for me back in Salem.” She replied gazing into the fire. “I always thought that if you would willing fight Koga for my sake and honor like that you really cared for me. I’m glad that you decided to find me that day in the snow all those years ago.”
“You’re mistaken Kagome,” InuYasha said softly. “It was you who found me and innocently bewitched me into loving you.”
Leaning over, InuYasha placed a chaste kiss on Kagome’s lips and together they held hands and watched the dancing fire, recalling all the adventures they had together and everything that they were given. Life, it was something that they had decided not to take for granted, and lady luck had graced them with a loving family to grow old with, and each other. They were happy, and they always would be.
The End.
E/N: It wasn't the original ending that I had planned over a year ago, but I really liked this one better. I spent more than 7 hours on this today trying to finish it up, and I really hope that I did a good job. The fighting scene took the longest because I wanted something original, something that I knew hadn't been done before and if it has, well then all that time was really wasted now wasn't it? lol THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO EVER HAS LEFT ME A REVIEW! You kept me going strong!
