Everyone's got someone
Chapter 8
 
“Ah hell! What the fuck is HE doing here?!”
 
Miroku looks around confused.
 
“Who?”
 
Inuyasha snorts.
 
“Kouga. That no-good-flea-bag-wolf-butt is coming around here again. I'll kick his ass!”
 
Miroku sweat drops.
 
~This won't turn out well. ~
 
As the whirlwind gets closer, Inuyasha's growls become audible.
 
~Just what I fucking need right now. ~
 
Kouga stops near the tree.
 
“Hey dog-breath. What's wrong with Kagome? I tracked her blood scent for miles. What did you do to her?!”
 
Inuyasha jumps from the tree and makes to punch Kouga. Miroku stops him.
 
“Inuyasha, calm down. He's just worried about Kagome. Let me talk to him.”
 
Inuyasha glares at Kouga, but nods and backs off. (Surprising huh?)
 
Inside Kaede's hut
 
“Has she awoken?”
 
Kaede just shakes her head. Sango sighs. She sits beside Kagome and just stares at her. Kagome's eyes flutter open and Sango is there in an instant.
 
“Kagome? How are you feeling?”
 
Kagome frowns, but doesn't say anything at first, Sango doesn't know if she heard her.
 
“Kagome?”
 
“I sense jewel shards…2 of them…”
 
Sango's eyes widen.
 
“Where? Near by? Or farther away?”
 
“Near, coming fast. I-I think it's…Kouga.”
 
“Kouga? Are you sure?”
 
Kagome only nods. Sango stands.
 
“I'll go check it out.”
 
Sango leaves the hut and heads towards the men.
 
~What's Kouga doing here? ~
 
Sango stops when she can hear the men's voices.
 
“So Kagome dumped the dog-turd?”
 
“(sigh) No Kouga, it seems that they are both at an impasse. None will agree to the other.”
 
“It's that bad huh?”
 
“Yeah, Sango can't take much more of this.”
 
Sango peaks from behind a tree to see as well as hear. Kouga looks thoughtful for a moment, then he looks to Inuyasha.
 
“Inuyasha, I have a proposition for you. Back at the den, we are in need of some more men of considerable strength to fend off other males from other packs.”
 
“Why?”
 
“Shut up and I'll tell you! I'm getting to that. Anyway…where was I…oh! We need more males because our bitches are in heat and we can't afford to let them go to other males. If you decide you want to come back with me, I'll be waiting at that sacred tree of yours tomorrow till sunrise, then I'm heading out.”
 
Kouga starts to head for the tree. Inuyasha stops him.
 
“Why should I? And why are you suggesting this?”
 
Kouga shrugs.
 
“You can have one of the bitches I suppose. Or one of the males, if that's more to your liking.”
 
“I'm not into guys Kouga!”
 
Kouga just shrugs.
 
“I'm simply saying it's your choice. And in answer to your other question, I don't know why I'm helping. It's just something that seemed like the right thing to do. Maybe a chance to calm down will help.”
 
“Why do you want to help him, Kouga?”
 
Kouga looks to the monk.
 
“Don't know, I'm serious. There's no motive other than to keep the pack bitches in the pack.”
 
Sango pull away from the scene and heads back to Kaede's. The men go their own ways, Kouga to the sacred tree, Inuyasha towards the woods, and Miroku to the village. As Sango enters the hut, Kaede looks up from her herbs.
 
“The child woke and asked for ye. She looked distressed that ye were not near.”
Sango nods and sits besides Kagome. Kagome starts to stir.
 
“Sango?”
 
“I'm here Kagome.”
 
“Was it him?”
 
“Yes.”
 
“What did he want?”
 
Sango cannot look at Kagome.
 
“Sango? What's wrong? Is it Inuyasha?”
 
Sango nods. Kagome's eyes fill with tears.
 
“Tell me…please…”
 
Sango cannot look Kagome in the eye as she recalls everything she just witnessed.
 
To Inuyasha
 
~Should I leave? Maybe Kouga's right. Some time away would be nice…maybe helpful…But who would look for the jewel shards and take care of the others? ~
 
“Miroku could do that…Sango too…they don't need me…”
 
Inuyasha sighs and kicks at some stones by his feet.
 
~Maybe it's a plan to steal Kagome! ~
 
He bristles at that thought, than snorts.
 
“Not that I care, he can have the lying bitch for all I care!”
 
Inuyasha shakes his head and starts towards the sacred tree where he meets Kouga. Kouga looks at him questionably.
 
“You're early? Or have you not decided yet?”
 
Inuyasha looks him in the eye, challenging him to argue with him.
 
“I've made my decision.”
