Chapter Seven
Kagome was sitting outside of Sango and Miroku’s hut, watching sadly as the leaves changed colors and slowly feel from the trees around the small hut. She really hoped that Inuyasha would come home soon. She missed him and wanted him safely beside here once again.
She was fully healed and had only a few small thin scars to show for her brutal attack. She knew that Inuyasha had done it but would not tell Sango and the rest who had done it. She loved Inuyasha and knew she would forgive him. She just wasn’t sure if the fear of his temper would ever go away. She woke almost every night from nightmares of him losing his temper and harming her or the others.
Suddenly she felt two powerful demons coming towards the village, she knew one of the auras coming closer but the other was strange and though it felt familiar she didn’t recognize it. She stood and went inside to get her arrows.
“Sango, is Miroku still here?” Kagome asked with her slight lisp as she retrieved the items
“No I am afraid he left before dawn with Kohaku to help the village a few days journey north. Can I help you?” said Sango.
“It’s nothing important I just wanted to check out a couple of demons coming this way but I know one of them is Sesshomaru so there isn’t too much to worry about. Is Kirara here or did they take her as well?”
“Nope, she is right here,” Sango said and she petted the small two tail cat demon. “Kirara protect Kagome and be nice to Sesshomaru okay,” Sango told the cat.
“Meow,” was Kirara’s response as she jumped down and walked over to Kagome by the entrance to the hut.
“Thank you Kirara, we should not be in too much trouble. But thanks anyway,” Kagome said with her usual lopsided smile, a new trait that had come from her injuries.
Just outside the village
Sesshomaru walked in complete silence with Inuyasha walking slowly behind him with his head and ears drooping. Sesshomaru thought that perhaps this was due to Inuyasha feeling depressed over his crime against the young miko. However, the longer they walked in silence the more it began to irritate the demon lord. Finally, Sesshomaru could not stand anymore of the hanyo’s silence.
“What vexes you so?”
“I am unaware of what you are referring too.” Inuyasha said with a surprising formal tone of voice.
“You have remained silent since you were released from your cave prison. I was under the assumption that you would be overjoyed to be going back to your miko mate. Yet, you seem even more upset the closer you get to her.”
“I am uncertain rather she will still love me even though we are mated for life, would she now hate me for attack, unprovoked, on her life. Perhaps she will be fearful of me now due to my appearance. I am unsure of the reaction that I shall receive when we arrive there.”
“Inuyasha, far be it of me to question you, however, do you still love her?”
“Yes.”
“Are you now willing to do anything she asks even die if she should command it?”
“Yes.”
“Will you ever harm her, raise your voice in anger, or raise your hands to her again?”
“No.”
“Then, you have nothing to fear. I may not know her very well, nor would I presume to understand her at all, but she has forgiven you for many things over your years. She has never ceased to amaze even me with her warm and caring heart. For a human, whom I normally would never praise, she is worthy of being called a friend, an ally, and my family. She will forgive you this time because you did the one thing that would keep you from hurting her ever again. You merged with your demonic side to protect her. That is a wonderful sacrifice in anyone’s book. Even mine. Now come, your mate awaits you, for she is coming this way.”
Inuyasha looked up at his brother whom he could have sworn was offering a ghost of a smile. Inuyasha nodded his head and then walked faster with Sesshomaru close behind. With Sesshomaru’s words still echoing in his head he now headed towards his mate with new found hope and a desire to spend the rest of his days making a mends for his actions. ‘Kagome I promise I will never hurt you ever again.’ He promised to himself and to her. Only time would tell if he could keep that promise and if Kagome would truly forgive him and learn to not fear him again.
