InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Inuyashas' scruw up ❯ dont let me fall, part 1 ( Chapter 7 )

~ Someone asked me if Inuyasha would drop kagome from the tree… very wrong there, sorry. I don't own Inuyasha or the others, please Read and Review. ~

Last time, '"Kagome, I'm sorry I can't tell you when your awake, but I'm going to train soon and I won't be able to be with you for awhile… I'll come back as soon as I can, but I have to do this so I can get a job and help you. I'm sorry… I'll be leaving in 3 days and I'm going to miss you more then anything. What that stupid demon doesn't realize is, that by not letting you come I'm going to be more distracted… with wondering if your ok… oh Kami-Sama… I love you Kagome." Inuyasha holds Kagome tighter in hopes that he will never have to let her go. 'I lost you once, I don't want to loss you again,' Inuyasha thinks, then falls asleep.'

Don't Let Me Fall

(part 1)

The next day is the first of the three days that Inuyasha has left to spend with Kagome. Inuyasha wakes up to the sun shining bright in his eyes. He feels Kagome moving around in his arms, and blocks her eyes from the sun. About 5 minutes later he sees her eyes open and smiles, then kisses her.

"Good morning, Kagome." (I'm giving Inuyasha an underline so it should be easier to figure out who is who.)

"Good morning, Inuyasha."

"Did you sleep well?"

"Of course, how about you?"

"Keh, of course… with your scent overwhelming me all night..."

"Is that good or bad?"

"Good."

"Ok." Kagome sits up and leans against Inuyasha more properly.

"Should we go inside?"

"Not unless you want to go in."

"Does that mean you want to go inside, but don't want to make me do anything I don't want to do?"

"… I think I'm still asleep because I didn't understand a word you said."

"-Anime sweat drop- ok, let's just go inside before you get sick, you were shivering last night."

"No I wasn't."

"Yes you were."

"No I wasn't."

"Feh, I think I would know if you were shivering! You may have been asleep, but I was still awake!"

"… Feh."

"THAT'S MY LINE!"

"What is?"

"The 'feh'."

"Oh well." Kagome moves her legs to jump out of the tree when suddenly Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi come up from the side of her view and walk towards her house.

"Uhh oh." Kagome whispers.

"Now what?"

"Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi are here… Inuyasha, as quickly and quietly as you can, jump to my room and tell Sango, Miroku, Kohaku, Shippo, and Kirara to get to their rooms… hurry, Inuyasha!"

"Yea, yea, fine. Feh, why do I always have to do everything." Inuyasha grabs Kagome and brings them both to her window, then goes to tell everyone to go to their rooms.

Kagome runs down the stairs to the door and as soon as she gets there she hears a knock. She answers it and comes face to face with Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka.

"Hey, Eri, Yuka, Ayumi."

"Hey, Kagome." The three girls say altogether.

"What do you guys need?"

"We want you to go to the mall with us." Yuka states in a normal manner but her eyes say she is up to something.

"Uhh... I'm sorry, but it's not a very good time for me…"

"That's ok, Kagome. We'll go another time." Ayumi says.

"Thank you Ayumi." Kagome replies with a smile.

"No, we need to go today, right now!" Eri yells. Yuka then grabs Kagomes arm and pulls her out of the door. Kagome is so surprised that she falls and cuts her knee and both palms. Unfortunately, Inuyasha smells her blood and is immediately down stairs helping her up, and glaring at her friends with blood red eyes.

"Stay away from here. Next time you come and Kagome gets hurt I won't stop to think before I kill you all." Inuyasha says in a slow scary voice. Kagome looks at him and sees his eyes.

"Inuyasha… please just go in the house… please," she says, half-scared and half-worried.

"NO!"

"…" Kagomes friends run away screaming demon.

"Inuyasha… it's ok now… let's go in the house, ok?"

"… They're never to come near you again, Kagome. And I NEVER want to see you near them."

"Inuyasha, they're my friends… I haven't seen them in forever, so that's why they're a little pushy."

"I don't care, Kagome. I don't want you near them."

"You can't tell me what I can and can't do, Inuyasha… you don't own me!"

Inuyasha's eyes glow even redder if possible, "I shouldn't have cared if you'd be sad in my time. I should have wished you alive and let that well seal."

"… You don't mean that…"

"Yes I do, Kagome. I mean it very much, and don't think it's my evil side talking, I have tetsusaiga with me. I truly mean what I'm saying, SO STOP ACTING LIKE I DON'T!"

Kagome is taken a back by this, and looks towards where tetsusaiga should be and sees it.

"Inuyasha… please stop this…"

"Not until you listen to me."

"… I told you that before we start a family, I'd need to finish school."

"What does that have to do with this?! Nothing!"

"It does have something to do with this, Inuyasha! Going to school means… I'll end up seeing my friends, Yuka, Eri, Ayumi… and Hojo…"

"… No."

"No what?"

"No, you're not going to school. You're staying here with me."

"What would you care? You're leaving in 2 or 3 days!" Kagome gets up and runs away from Inuyasha. Inuyasha is so taken a back that he turns normal again and just watches Kagome run away from him, down the shrine steps and way down the street. (PS. I only said that he has red eyes, not the claws, long fangs, or purple stripes, so yea.)

When Inuyasha finally gets his head back together, it is too late to go looking for her, and he knows that, so he goes in the house. When he gets inside, Himono is waiting for him.

"She knows?" Himono asks.

"Yup…"

"She'll try to come now."

"I know."

"We're going to go tomorrow so as she doesn't know… I'm sorry it is so soon…"

"… But… please, not tomorrow, please…" Inuyasha looks at him desperately.

"We've no reason to delay it, it will take us 4 hours to get up there… and you've plenty to learn. We leave at sunrise tomorrow, I doubt she'll be awake then."

"… No."

"No?"

"IM NOT GOING… NOT SO SOON! IM NOT LEAVING KAGOME LIKE THAT!"

"… You have no choice, either that or a different job."

"… But why… why can't she come, WHY DO I HAVE TO LEAVE KAGOME?!"

"Because where we're going she can get hurt at, do you want to train and then go to find her only to see her dead?"

"… No… I've went to find Kagome before and found her dead… I don't want that happening again."

"Good."

With Sango

Sango is walking around and sees Himono and Inuyasha, she is about to ask why she and Miroku must stay in their room but then hears Inuyasha sound sad and say, "but… please, not tomorrow, please…" Sango then listens to the whole conversation. When it ends she thinks to her-self, 'I must tell Kagome.' Sango then goes to her room and plan out how to tell her friend. But then Sango thought a little more.

"Kagome deserves to know… but I don't want her to die… I know! I'll tell her tomorrow after they leave so she won't be able to go, but will still know where he went! Ok, that's the plan."

Back with Inuyasha, again

Inuyasha is outside walking around. Seeing all the humans, he's glad he no longer has his dog-ears. Suddenly he hears Kagomes friends, then he hears Kagome. He walks towards to where he heard her voice and finds a large building with the letters 'Library' written on them. (I would have made it her school but I don't know the name of her school.) He walks over to it and sees Kagome on a bench, off to the side of the doors, with her friends.

"What should we do?" Kagome asks her friends.

"Go to the mall!" Eri and Yuka answer with a yell. Ayumi and Kagome laugh at their friends.

"Ok, I have to go home and get some money first."

"… Kagome…what about that guy?" Yuka asks in a low tone.

"Yea… he's scary, and he might hurt us… he said he'd kill us if he caught us near you." Eri states

"… Inuyasha wont lay a hand on any of you, I swear if he even tries he'll be sorry." Kagome tells them.

"Are you ok, Kagome? You're acting… hateful…"Ayumi says.

"I'm fine… I'm sorry if I'm acting badly, its just that… Inuyasha really ticked me off before…"

"We understand." Kagome's three friends all say at the same time. They all get up and start walking to Kagomes house, which happens to be in the direction Inuyasha was, but none notice him. Inuyasha stands there as they walk right by him and is surprised Kagome doesn't notice him. Kagome is deep in thought, 'what if Inuyasha tries to kill them? I'll tell him to sit down, but will it work? I never took the necklace off him yet, so it should work, but the well is closed and I haven't used it on him for awhile…I hope it works…' Kagome and her friends keep walking to her home. When they get there, they walk silently to Kagomes room, but on the way there, Sango comes up to them.

"Hello Kagome."

"Hey Sango. Sango, these are my friends from school, Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi. Yuka, Eri, Ayumi… this is Sango, she is from another part of Japan and is living with us."

"Hello, Yuka, Eri, Ayumi, I've heard Kagome talk about you often." Sango says.

"Hello Sango." Eri says.

"Hey." Yuka says.

"Welcome to Tokyo." Says Ayumi.

"Sango, we were just getting ready to go to the mall, again. Would you like to come with us?"

"That's a great idea, Kagome! Would you like to come, Sango?" Ayumi asks nicely.

"Sure, ok." Sango replies.

"I'll be right back, the four of you, I'm going to get my money." Kagome goes to her room and gets her wallet, but when she returns to her friends she finds Inuyasha there and them scared, then Sango standing in front of them.

"What's going on?" Kagome asks.

"He's going to attack us, Kagome!" Eri and Yuka yell.

"Inuyasha… I'm sorry but… sit." Inuyasha falls face-first into the ground. The three schoolgirls are surprised and confused as to what happened and how Kagome did that, but Sango tells them Kagome learned some priestess spells for her health and they are real spells, so she used one on Inuyasha.

"Thank you for explaining, Sango. Now, everyone ready?"

"Yes." Kagomes friends, all but Sango, say.

"Ok, let's go then."

"Kagome… I don't have any money…"

"That's ok, Sango, you have a reason. Ill pay for you."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." Kagome smiles and they leave. Inuyasha gets up and growls.

"How dare she… I guess it might be good to get away from her for awhile, after all… now that we're in her time, she's acting a lot different… I might not miss her too much, and I KNOW she won't miss me." Inuyasha looks depressed, and Himono shows up.

"What's wrong? Did Kagome do something?"

"… You're a demon, dumb-ass. You know she did something, and you might even know what."

"Maybe… maybe not… if you know what's good for you, you'd go see her. Not just for her… but for you… you will leave tomorrow, and all you need is to be in a fight when you leave."

"You're right… ill go talk to her…"

"Good idea, but don't tell her you're leaving tomorrow… and before you go, I'm going to use a spell to change your features, you broke Midorikos spell."

"Oh… ok… thanks."

"No problem." Himono takes out a packet of powder from his pocket and dumps it on Inuyasha.

"THAT STINKS!!! Yuck! What is this stuff?!"

"It will make you look human again… I'm surprised Kagome's friends didn't see your ears… you looked like your hanyou self… but I still smell that you are full demon."

"Looked? So I look human now?"

"Yes."

"Ok, good… is there anyway you can maybe… you know… disguise me so I can spy on kagome and maybe buy her a present? I have to get her something if I'm leaving so soon…"

"Sure, I can do that, and I'll give you some money sense yours doesn't work here." Himono dumps some more powder on Inuyasha so Kagome, Sango, and Kagome's friends don't notice Inuyasha unless he actually goes up to them, then gives him so money.

"Thanks a lot, you're actually helping for once… try getting some of that stuff, but some that doesn't stink."

Himono sighs, "It's the least I can do sense I'm taking you two apart form each other, I really am sorry you two must separate… as for the scent, I cant help that. Worry not, no human can't smell it."

"Ok, good. Well, thanks again, see you later!" With that, Inuyasha runs off to the mall.

At The Mall Inuyasha enters the mall and starts his search. It takes him awhile to find kagome, and by the time he finds her, 5 girls have already attacked him, thinking he was nice looking. (I prefer Sessho-Maru.) when he finds her, he watches her and her friends, then sees her go into a store. He follows her and hears their conversations.

"Oh my god, Kagome, Sango, Eri, Yuka, come look at this! It is beautiful." Indeed, it is beautiful. It is a female's wedding ring, and it has a silver band, that glows a very, very light blue. In the middle is a small light blue, purple, pink small jewel.

"That looks like the shikon no tama, except it is smaller then the shikon." Sango whispers to Kagome.

"Yea… and it's beautiful…" Kagome mumbles back to Sango. Inuyasha watches and smirks, knowing Himono is right behind him.

"Hey, old man… that ring…"

"It is a marriage ring."

"What is marriage again?"

"Marriage is a ceremony for humans that tells the human world they are mates."

"I see… what does a ring have to do with it?"

"A male human usually buys a ring for the female human he wants to be his mate, this is a sign of respect and love. They also use this as a sign of asking the female to be theirs."

"Oh… but Kagome already said she'd be my mate."

"Yes, but she is human, so… a human ceremony is best for her… and she will be very happy if you were to buy her a ring. If I were you I'd buy a good ring, and ask her to 'marry' you in-front of a lot of people."

"Would she realy like that? … In-front of a lot of people… she might get embarrassed or take it the wrong way, not hear me out, then sit me."

"Inuyasha, use your head. If you do something wrong then that will happen, but if you listen-"

"Listen? Listen to what?! You?! I don't think so."

"I'm the only one who could properly tell you what you need to know. Miroku is a pervert and won't give you correct help. Sango is a girl and wont keep her mouth shut if you tell her, not to mention she is with Kagome right now. Shippo is too young. Whom else do you have to turn to?!"

"Kagome's mom might help me."

"She won't be able, you know that. She'll get all worked up about it, plus she'll want to come and watch. She'll give you away if kagome glances anywhere at you."

"… Then talk quickly."

"If I were you, I'd get her a ring, a very good one. Then walk up behind her, wrap your arms around her, and tell her you're sorry. After that, get on one knee, take the box with the ring out, then say, 'Kagome, will you marry me?'"

"That's all?"

"Yes... but for it to be a little easy later, get her two different rings, the one you get her now needs to be good, but the one you give to her at the wedding must be better."

"… Fine, but I only know of one ring that she likes."

"Ok, get her that one for now, that will be the one to use in about an hour. Give me back the money I gave you, the ring is going to be a lot more then you have."

"What do you want as payment for helping me?"

"Only for you not to let Kagome come when we train, and to try your hardest while training."

"That's it?!"

"Yes."

"You're cheep."

"Isn't that good?"

"At the moment it is."

"Why are we standing around? We both have a spell on us for now so we can walk past kagome and her friends without them knowing it is us, unless we walk right up to them, ten they'll see us. But we're not walking up to them."

"Feh… Let's just go get the ring."

"Ok." Both Inuyasha and Himono walk into the store. As soon as Inuyasha spots Kagome, his body goes rugged.

"Worry not, Inuyasha… they wont know its you." Himono whispers.

"Good." Inuyasha whispers back. They stand there and wait for the girls to leave and once the girls are gone, Himono and Inuyasha move in for the ring. Right before they got there, some fat lady grabs the ring and purchases it.

"… But we were going to buy that ring…"Himono whispers.

"No… no…the only way I know of to get Kagome to like me again was that ring…I can never show my face again." Inuyasha walks out of the store with Himono at his heels.

"Inuyasha, we can't give up. I'm sure there is another ring like it, maybe even better."

"What if there's not? I can't look at Kagome again… let's just leave now."

"No, Inuyasha. I can't let you do this, you'll hate yourself for it, and Kagome will only hate you more."

"… Then what do I do?"

"We go and see if they have any more rings like that, if they don't we search for a ring similar or better then it."

"… Ok… I feel like a lost puppy, I mean… I know nothing about Kagome's time and now Kagome is against me… I just want to go somewhere that is familiar."

"I know what you mean… Inuyasha, there are a few places I can take you to that are very familiar to you, but now is not the time."

"… keh."

"Let's go back to the store."

"… Feh…" They both go back to the store and ask to see the manager. "How may I help you?" asks the manager. (A female.)

"A few minutes ago someone bought a ring and we were wondering if you had any more like it or similar." Himono stated

"We don't sell two of the same item, what we sell are rare item made especially for this store." The manager said smugly.

"If we were to ask you to customize a ring, how long would it take you to get it made?"

"Sorry, sir… we don't take special orders, you can only buy what is on the rack." Said the manager in a sugary sour tone.

"Ok, thank you anyway. Lets go Inuyasha."

"Wait." the manager says after hearing Inuyasha's name.

"What?"

"… I might make an exception for the bother of lord Sessho-Maru. Tell me how much you're willing to pay for a customized ring?"

"As much as 10, 000, 000 yen."

"WHAT?! YOU'D PAY 10,000,000 YEN FOR A RING?!" exclaimed the manager.

"Yes." Said Himono in a bored tone. (I wish I had that much money!)

"How do you know Sessho-Maru? Wait a minute… 10,000,000 YEN?! ARE YOU CRAZY?! What is yen?"

"I know lord Sessho-Maru because I work for him, and he is still the western lord. Yen is what money is called in this time period."

"oh…"

"you act as though you know Inuyasha is not from this time."

"I do know Inuyasha is from 500 years back in time.. Lord Sessho-Maru expects his younger brother to come eventually and in this time. I'm ¼ demon myself. You might have known my grate-grandma, her name is Rin."

"Whatever, lets get back to the ring."

"But of course, Lord Inuyasha."

"Lord?"

"yeah, 'lord'. You're rich in this time, Inuyasha. your brother has become a bit nicer and sense he helped defeat Naraku he found you weren't totally useless."

"I'm rich? You mean I have a lot of money? So that means I don't have to be a boxer person and don't have to leave kagome?"

"Wrong, Inuyasha. Rich or not you are a demon and have to find a job. You live for an exceedingly long time and rich wont help you later in life."

"… Wait a minute… doesn't that also mean Kagome will grow old… while I stay young, because I'm a demon?"

"… Yes… Kagome will die as years go by and you will remain young."

"… Is there a way to turn me human?"

"In this time… no, I'm afraid not, Inuyasha."

"… ok, back to the ring?" asks the manager.

"yes. Back to the ring." Inuyasha mumbles.

"what would you like it to look like?"

"Uhh…"

"I'll handle this, Inuyasha. A silver band, with multiple color assorted crystals/diamonds. Have you heard of the Shikon No Tama?"

"yes, what of it?"

"I want it to have a shard of that jewel in it."

"I'm sorry, the jewel no longer exists."

"wrong, it is still it, but I want you to make a sliver that looks like it, crystal/diamond."

"I see. Is that all?"

"yes. How much will it cost?"

"100,000 Yen. Not nearly as much as you offered to pay."

"yes, 1/10 of what I offered."

"yes."

"ok then, how long till it is made?"

"for the money you are paying… 4 days."

"BUT WE DON'T HAVE THAT LONG!!!"

"what do you mean?"

"… he means we have to go training high in the mountains tomorrow morning."

"I'm sorry, there is no way I can get it done by tonight, or tomorrow."

"it is most ok."

"ok?! It's not ok!" Inuyasha jumps out of his seat. "I need it now for Kagome!"

"Inuyasha, I shall be nice bring the journey much closer home for now."

"what the hell does that mean?!"

"it means we still leave tomorrow morning, but we will be back when she calls and says the ring is done."

"… fine…"

~ yay! First part done! Was it long? Please review!~
