Chapter 20 - The Plan
"Where's Kirara when you need her?" Kagome muttered to herself, though making sure Inuyasha
could hear. He was, after all, holding her in his arms. It would be pretty hard to say something
and have him miss it.
He frowned and gave her a brief look of exasperation, never stopping in his furious running.
They'd gone north, since that was what Kaede - or Naraku - had told them. It was most likely
some kind of trap, and he was luring them there with their friends.
It was odd though. Why had Naraku taken their friends, if Inuyasha and Kagome weren't even
there? Or worse, did they know?
To the couple's knowledge, Kikyo was their only adversary that knew of the well and it's uses.
She'd witnessed the traveling Kagome once before, when they were fighting Menoumaru two
years ago.
Inuyasha prayed to the gods that Kikyo hadn't let this precious information slip. They had no idea
whether or not Naraku could use the well, or anyone else. It was a secret guarded almost as much
as Inuyasha's new moon transformation.
At this thought, Inuyasha thought carefully about the current phase of the moon. He smiled, he
still had a few weeks until his next monthly (haha....monthly...) So facing Naraku now wouldn't
be any trouble at all.
Well, as much trouble as Naraku usually was. It had been a year though... Throughout that time
period, Naraku could have done anything. But the gang hadn't heard of any strange sightings of
odd beasts that had strange Naraku-like characteristics. They'd felt safe, if only for a little while.
And now they were after him again, but this time, the shikon shards were of little matter. They
wanted their companions, no matter the cost.
Kagome ended up dozing lightly in Inuyasha's arms, for though he was running swiftly, he could
run with only gentle movements, never actually bouncing up and down. It was more as though he
glided than ran.
And he ran extra soft for her.
After a couple hours, even Inuyasha got tired of running such great distances. He stopped in a
tiny little grove, just big enough for the two of them, and a little extra room that otherwise would
have been used by Sango and Miroku. Shippou didn't need room, considering he slept on/with
Kagome.
Inuyasha gently set Kagome on the ground, then straightened and just looked at her for a while.
Even after all this time, it was strange to call her "mate". He'd never quite gotten used to the idea
before he'd popped it on her.
And it was nice to themselves, like this. No mothers going crazy with preparations, no little
brothers wanting to play video games, no old man trying to kill you every time you turned
around.
And no monks making moves on every female in sight, no taijiya... well, she always had to drag
Kagome away to take a bath, didn't she? And the fox child... words could not express how many
times he'd ruined a moment between he and Kagome.
Yes, it was nice to be alone. He raised an eyebrow at Kagome's stomach. Even if they couldn't
do much of anything... he was happy just being around her.
On a whim, he knelt next to her and lowered his head, placing an ear gently on her stomach. He
listened closely, hearing the heartbeat of the child within. He smiled. She was carrying his child.
That had taken a little getting used to, but man, was it worth it.
Then he sniffed at her stomach, pressing his nose close to try and decipher all the smells. There
was Kagome, and his own scent - weird - and then there was the new scent, the one of both of
them together and it's own little twist. A scent he would begin to memorize...now.
A little longer, and he was sure to know. Sure enough, a few seconds later, and he could envision
-with great delight - their baby girl.
^ _ ^ <---- I'm using these now to indicate scene changes :)
Kagome woke slowly, not wanting to open her eyes. According to her ears, which she couldn't
really close - sadly - it was still night. No birds were chirping, and the nocturnal animals were
scurrying about. Overhead, an owl hooted, and a rabbit dashed into the tall grasses nearby.
The next thing she felt was a heavy presence on her already heavy tummy. Her now-opened eyes
narrowed into slits, she lifted her head and looked, then flopped it back onto the ground.
He was there, just as she'd thought. So predictable. She lifted her head again though, curious. His
head was turned on its side, and he was using her belly as a pillow of sorts. His ear was pressed
to it, and there was a smile on his face.
Kagome responded with a smile of her own. It was rare that Inuyasha smile in his sleep. She
placed her arms under her head, enabling her to watch him without too much discomfort. He
seemed strangely peaceful, and Kagome reached out with a hand and gently brushed her fingers
over the tips of his ears. His mouth twitched, and Kagome narrowed her eyes.
"Inuyasha, you aren't fooling me," she said calmly, the words laced with danger. He opened his
eyes, and the smile evaporated. He looked wistfully at her, and gently picked up the hand she'd
let fall. He played with her fingers using his own, tracing the fine lines on her palm.
"Do we always have to fight?" he asked quietly. Her eyes widened, and a frown slowly formed
on her face.
"No. No, of course not." She bit her lip, and looked away, her hand responding to his in kind.
"I'm sorry. I'm just a little..." Kagome sighed, unable to find words. He smiled gently.
"It's alright Kagome." He lifted his head off her belly and bent to pick her up. She squeaked
when he lifted her from the ground, but said nothing. He walked over to a tree, and sat down,
Kagome still in his arms, and leaned against the trunk.
Kagome smiled, and traced the lines on his face with her fingers. She ran the tips over his
eyebrows, delicately fingering the bridge of his nose. When she reached his mouth, he gently
took her wrist and held her hand away, then bent to kiss her lips.
It was long and slow, and they both took joy in it. Kagome couldn't remember the last time
they'd had a moment to themselves, with neither of them tired or injured or something of the
like.
Inuyasha let her hands go, and they clung to his chest, gripping themselves securely in his haori
as she kissed him back. His hand slid hesitantly down, resting on her stomach, pressing gently.
She gasped, and pulled away, looking into his eyes curiously.
He smiled, and kept his hand on her bulge. They both waited, and Inuyasha jumped when he felt
the baby move. It was Kagome's turn to smile, and she placed her hand over his.
"She's energetic," he whispered, as they felt another kick. Kagome looked up at him
questioningly. He blushed. "I checked." Kagome's gaze didn't waver, asking just how he'd
checked. He smiled sheepishly. "I smelled her when you were asleep." Kagome nodded slowly.
He bent down to her stomach again, sniffing. He came back up a minute later and grinned. "Yup,
it's a girl." He said.
Kagome sighed happily and nestled against his chest, lost in the strength and warmth of his arms.
He pressed a soft kiss to her forehead, and together they fell asleep underneath the stars.
^ _ ^
"Inuyasha, can I ask you something?"
"Mmm..." He nuzzled the top of her head. They'd been awake for some time, but neither of them
wanted to release the other, perfectly content as they were.
"Why can't we wait?" The question was simple, but Inuyasha frowned.
"Because who knows what he's doing to them?" His voice rose slightly, and he straightened.
Kagome sighed.
"Inuyasha, don't get angry at me. I just want to wait until... until we're safe." Inuyasha sighed too
and slumped back against the tree. He returned his attention to nuzzling in her soft hair.
"I want to... but I don't want him taking advantage of them." He forced her face up by placing his
finger under her chin. "When we came back, his smell had entirely left. That means it had to
have been at least two weeks," he said softly. Kagome's eyes widened. Two whole weeks?
"I don't want to put you in danger, Kagome, you know that." He kissed her gently. "But I need
you." Kagome frowned, and Inuyasha began to get flustered.
"Kagome, I'll keep you away, alright? Miroku can put a shield around you..." Kagome looked up
at him sadly, and he winced. They might not get Miroku. Then he smiled.
"I'll hide your scent Kagome. I'll make you smell like me, or mud, your preference," Kagome
made a face, "and then he'll just think it's me. You can hide until the end, and only if you're
really needed." Kagome bit her lip, thinking. Then she grinned.
"So you're saying you smell like mud?" she asked playfully. Inuyasha's mouth hung open for a
bit, wondering. Then he growled and bit down on her ear.
"Aaah! Mike Tyson!" she screeched with a laugh. He pulled back immediately.
"Who the fuck is Mike Tyson?"
"Where's Kirara when you need her?" Kagome muttered to herself, though making sure Inuyasha
could hear. He was, after all, holding her in his arms. It would be pretty hard to say something
and have him miss it.
