Chapter Eight:

Secret Revealed!

Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN INUYASHA! GET THAT THROUGH YOUR FREAKING HEADS *takes a deep breath * I'm OOOOOKKKKKK!

Summary of Chapter: Inuyasha tells Kagome about himself, more along his demon side since she knows about his past. Oh, this is another short, filler chapter.

~~~***~~~

When they arrived everyone was waiting for them.

"Kagome what happened?" Mrs. Higurashi cried. Alarm was evident in her eyes.

"Oh mom, it was awful!" She slid weeping off of Inu's back and hugged her mom. He felt horrible, having Kagome be put through all of that.

"I'll be outside." Gramps gave him a small tip of the head to know that he acknowledged him.

Inuyasha trudged to the front of their property, and sat on one of the many shrine steps. Kagome…That was that he could think about. How could he let her down like that?

What had it been, twenty minutes, half an hour? He just watched the cars glide smoothly by and the occasional yapping teenage girls giggle as they walked by him. Suddenly, her scent hit his nose. Inuyasha no longer smelt tears, but he smelled something practically worse…fear.

"Um......uh……Inu……yasha?" she mumbled, as she walked down the steps and sat next to him. "Why are you outside?" He couldn't meet her in the eyes.

"I let you down." His voice was barely more than a hoarse whisper.

"What are you talking about?" she asked, surprised.

"I let those guys hurt you! I should've protected you."

"It wasn't your fault! Bryon had you in a pretty tight situation, and my arms aren't so sore anymore." Golden eyes met chocolate brown ones and she smiled.

"Why don't you come inside, and eat? We're having pizza." A small grin tugging at the corners of his mouth, he followed.

* * *

Half an hour later, they were in Kagome's room. She was sprawled out, and Inuyasha was lying on the floor, letting her rub the kinks out of his ears.

"Anyway, thanks for worrying about me." He nodded.

"Inuyasha, why……why do you have ears like a dog?" She felt him stiffen in her hand, but he suddenly relaxed, the ecstasy of having his ears stroked out shadowed anything else.

"Then, you really don't know?" he inquired after a while.

"No, why would I?"

"Your mom knows."

"Mom?" She cocked her head to the side, but continued her little ministration on his cute, velvety ears.

"I heard her talking about it with your grandpa."

"So, are…you…not human?" she asked, gawking at him. Inu sensed slight fear, but puzzlement more than anything else.

"I guess I should start from the beginning."

* * *

"First of all, I don't know much about my parents, but I'll tell you what I DO know. My dad was a powerful dog demon, who roamed around in big country sides in Japan, long, long ago. My mom, was a human, obviously, and she didn't want me, so she sent me to the Sengoku Jidai Orphanage." Kagome caught the soft, sad undertone in his voice.

"Oh, Inuyasha." She nuzzled her soft cheek against his ear and it twitched cutely. "I'm sorry."

"Whatever," he muttered, but was purring deep in his chest from the soft contact against his ears.

"So, that makes you a half demon?"

"Yup, I'm a hanyou."

"Oh cool!" He perked up, careful not to snatch away from her hand by mistake.

"You mean…you don't think I'm……"

"Inuyasha, didn't we already go over this. I like you for who you are!" Whoa! Kagome practically said that she LIKE him! A HANYOU! How could she have fallen for him that fast? No. He dismissed it as wishful thinking and sighed, as afternoon turned into night.

PREVIEW
CHAPTER NINE:

ENVENTUALLY

Naraku's cold eyes bore into Kikyo's.

"So, are you ready to tell me the plan…Naraku?"

"Yes, I figured out that she can * summon * the pieces of the jewel from Japan! We'll write a ransom note, and then…we'll finally have what we truly desire! Send for Kagura and Kanna." Kikyo nodded and disappeared from the room.

"Finally, you'll be mines, Kikyo! With that * dog * gone, she'll come for me! We have a fighting chance, as long as his doesn't find his powerful Tetsusaiga!"

Later Days!*~
