InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Love Ain't Forgotten Easily ❯ The Good Kagome, the Bad Inu-Yasha, and eep--the Ugly Youkai ( Chapter 15 )

Chapter 15

Why do you insist on doing this? Good Kagome asked, leaning against the bars.

I told you before, it's `cause I wants him. Badly. Bad Kagome licked her lips.

You could at least pretend to know proper grammar. G.K. rolled her eyes.

Shut up, bitch.

For the last time, I am not a female dog!

You just don't grasp the whole concept of name-calling, do you? B.K. shook her head.

I know it's an unkind thing to do, and you should always address someone as is proper. Good Kagome folded her arms over her chest.

Yeah, whatever. B.K. turned back to the controls.

Thusly, she never saw G.K. pull the hairpin from her hair and start to pick the lock.

***

Whyyy alweeez wif da chloroformid thingy? Good Inu-Yasha asked, eyes in little swirls. Bad Inu-Yasha snorted.

Because otherwise you fuck up my ideas. Now shut your yap or else I'll use it again.

Oooookeeedoookeeee. G.I. passed out.

B.I. checked to make sure that his opposite was properly chained, then returned to the controls. And now, wench, you're mine.

***

I wish I had something a little better than this to wear. B.K. shook her head. I'm going to have to give a little tip when we go shopping again.

Behind her, G.K. silently opened the lock. Biting her lip, she swung the door open. Whew, she thought. No squeaks.

Now, I know B.K. won't sit down and talk this out, so… G.K. glanced around. There must be some other peaceful solution! But I can't outmuscle her…I think. Oh, well; only one way to find out, and drastic times call for drastic measures.

So, silent as a cat, G.K. crept up behind her counterpart.

B.K. sensed her at the last second, and whipped around. What the—ahh!

Seeing as she was taken by complete surprise, B.K. was swiftly wrestled into the cage. G.K. shut the door and locked it.

What the fuck? B.K. shouted. How in the hell did you get out?

G.K. held up a thin metal object. Hairpin.

Gods damn it, B.K. growled. You'll just waste our time with him!

I will not! G.K. turned and stalked over to the controls. I will make sure we behave!

Where the hell is the fun in that?! B.K. growled, rattling the bars. Damn it all!

***

Kagome leaned up to stare at Inu-Yasha. Oh no. Oh no.

She had just seen their current position from the eyes of two little people in her head: a good one and a bad one, both versions of her.

He returned the look, because, unbeknownst to her, he had experienced the same thing. Then he realized she was lying on top of him and shoved her to the side.

“Eee—ow!” She landed on a thicket of stickers. “Owowowowowow!”

“What happened?”

“You made me land on something sharp and pointy, that's what!” She sat up and glared at him. “Ow…that hurt! Ow! It still does! Owwwww!”

“I can tell.” He reached out and pulled her to him. “Here, let me see.”

“No, I'm f—owwwwch!” She buried her face in his shoulder as he pulled out the first of the stickers.

This would be really awkward if it didn't hurt so much! she thought.

***

Owie! This was not part of the plan! G.K. wailed.

B.K. snorted. Dumbass.

Stop calling me names, B.K.!

No. You are in the perfect fucking position to make a move on him and yet you're doing nothing! Not one single damn thing!

This hurts, you know! G.K. glared.

Are you saying you'll do something once they're all out? B.K.'s eyes widened.

Yes. I will thank him.

Thank him how? B.K. was suddenly very interested.

G.K. blinked. By saying thank you?

B.K.'s shoulders slumped in defeat. No! How did I get stuck with her?!

What are you talking about? G.K. left the controls for a moment. We're opposites, and together we balance out. That's why we're stuck together.

B.K. raised her head so that she could stare out at G.K. with a single eye. I know that, stupid ass. I just don't get why you won't help me go after this guy. Don't you like him?

Well… G.K. blushed. Yes.

You see? B.K. smiled. And from his actions last time, he likes you too.

But you were in charge last time. G.K.'s gaze turned suspicious.

B.K. winced. Yeah, true. But it doesn't mean he won't like you!

What are you getting at?

B.K. thought over her answer for a few moments. Listen, G.K. You can say thank you, or you can say thank you and just give him a little peck on the cheek. That's all.

Are you sure? G.K. asked, eyes wide and naïve. He won't mind?

B.K. nodded. Yup. Now go!

Okay! G.K. skipped back to the controls.

So cute and innocent, B.K. thought. But if all goes as planned, she should be back in here and I'll be out there.

***

Kagome snapped back to reality. What the—again?

Inu-Yasha flicked away the last sticker. I don't think there are people like that in my head. Weird shit.

This feels familiar… both thought. But—

***

Finally. G.K. breathed a sigh of relief. Okay, now to do what B.K. said.

She flipped on the speaker. “Uh, thank you, Inu-Yasha.”

Then she leaned forward to lightly kiss him on the cheek—

Only to squeak in surprise as he changed the direction of her face and caught her lips with his own.

Wha? B.K.!

Yes? The dominatrix was leaning against the wall of her cell and looking completely blameless…or trying to, at least. Something wrong?

Yes! He actually kissed me!

So? That's what was supposed to happen.

You didn't tell me that!

You didn't ask. B.K. checked her nails.

Why are you so mean?

I'm not mean. I just do what I want when I want, or get others to do it for me. B.K. straightened and walked up to the gate.

She lashed out with one spike-heeled boot, shattering the bars. Then she pulled out her whip and cracked it dangerously close to G.K.'s face.

Eeee! Good Kagome abandoned the controls, which Bad Kagome gladly took over.

Lust. Always good for weakening iron. B.K. made the body respond, wrapping the arms around the lean figure of Inu-Yasha. And now, to deepen the kiss…

***

Kagome's eyes snapped open at the same time as Inu-Yasha's. At once they let go of each other, backing away as fast they could.

“Not again,” Kagome moaned, burying her face in her hands. “Why now?”

“No idea,” Inu-Yasha replied, making sure not to look over at her. “But it's going to make shard collecting an even bigger pain in the ass.”

“I know!” Kagome fell backwards. “What do we tell Miroku and Sango? That we can't go on because of—because of—”

“Because of some bizarre sexual fantasy involving one another that we can't control? Oh, yeah, Miroku'll love that one.”

“Shut up.” She dared look over at him.

***

Okay…need air… B.K. had the body pull back. What in the hell? Are his eyes red? Holy shit, he's turning into a youkai on me!

What's going on? G.K. popped up over B.K.'s shoulder. Yeek!

Yeah, that's what I thought. Does it just make him that much hotter though? B.K. smirked. This should be fun.

***

I want to let loose, but if I do—

Yooouuu'lll gooo nutsesss and killllsss herrrr. G.I. was awake, though still working off the effects of the chloroform.

Yeah. B.I. punched the panel, thankfully missing the controls.

Whyyy you doin' thisss agains? You's onlyy torturin' yerself, ya knooows. Woooo…

B.I. gave G.I. an odd look over his shoulder. No more chloroform for you. And I don't know why I want the wench, I just do. There's something about her that…just calls to me.

If you says sooo…woooo… G.I. was out again.

Definitely need to lay off the chloroform.

***

“I hate this,” Kagome growled. He looked over at her.

“Nice growl.”

“Shut it.” She pushed herself to her feet and climbed out of the bushes. He trailed after her a moment later, not looking forward to telling the lecher about their little…problem…

Kagome picked up her bike. “We can try and keep it a secret as long as possible. Just…try to fight it off, and if it happens we'll find some excuse.”

“Yeah.” He rolled his eyes. “Come on, you two! We haven't got all day!”

“All right!” Miroku jogged the remaining distance to them. “We were giving you two more time alone is all!”

Wham. Monk, meet Mud.

“Stinking pervert,” Inu-Yasha snarled.

Sango came forward and peeled him off the ground. Beside her, Kirara transformed so that he could be slung over her back.

***

“How much farther to the village, Sango?” Kagome asked half an hour later. So far she and Inu-Yasha had been able to restrain the fantasies, but she could tell it wouldn't be possible for much longer.

“Uh, I think about five minutes more.”

“Yeah. I can already smell humans.” Inu-Yasha looked back. “Miroku still out?”

“Uh-huh. He started to wake up once, but I thought the journey was more peaceful with him unconscious…”

“Just make sure he's up before we have to defeat the demon.”

They had just come into sight of the village when Kagome hissed, “Inu-Yasha! I can't—I can't hold it back anymore!”

“Shit!” He tackled her, knocking them both into even more convenient bushes at the side of the road. Sango blinked.

“Where'd they go?”

***

Inu-Yasha growled in pleasure as the girl managed to figure out who was in control and attack his ears. He lowered his head to the crook of her neck and shoulder, and bit down. She squeaked, accidentally wrenching one ear.

He propped himself on his hands, giving her a dark look.

“Sorry.” She dragged his head back down to hers.

***

Kagome shoved Inu-Yasha off of her the moment she snapped out of it.

His head bounced off a tree. “Hey, wench, it's not like I had a choice.”

“So? I don't want you on me.” That's not true, but he doesn't need to know that. Gods, I'm turning into Miroku! Uh, sort of, anyway.

“Kagome? Inu-Yasha? Are you guys okay?” Sango called.

“Yeah,” Kagome returned. “Inu-Yasha's just being a jerk again.”

He glared at her before climbing from the shrub; she followed, taking a swipe at his foot and successfully tripping him.

He had turned around to call her an annoying wench when he saw the giant sword heading straight for her neck.

“Kagome!” He leaned forward and pulled her out of the way in the nick of time.

She blinked. “Inu-Yasha, what—”

He rolled them to the side as the sword crashed down directly where they had been, and she finally saw it. “Eep.”

“Go!” He shoved her back and dove forward. “Sango!”

“On it!” She grabbed her giant boomerang and flung it at their attacker. “Hiraikotsu!”

The giant youkai merely raised its hand and swatted it away. It crashed into the ground a hundred yards behind Sango.

“That thing is…ugly,” Kagome remarked, pushing Inu-Yasha off of her and running for her bike. Her bow rested across the seat, and her arrows were in the basket.

However, the youkai saw where she was headed and dropped its sword in front of her. She yelped and stumbled backwards.

She couldn't help it. “Inu-Yasha!”

He responded, diving between her and the sword at the last second.

***

Inu-Yasha pulled off her T-shirt and threw it aside. Kagome giggled, wrapping her arms around him and trailing kisses down his jawline. He growled and ran his claws through her hair, then trailed them down her back. She trembled.

“Inu-Yasha, that tickles…”

***

Kagome stared, wide-eyed, at the hanyou in front of her. “Inu…Yasha…?”

“Yeah, wench?” he replied, shuddering. The ugly youkai pulled its sword away from his back, and he dropped to his knees.

“Inu-Yasha!” Kagome cried. “Are you all right?”

“Yeah, I'm fine. This haori's made of fire-rat fur.” He knocked her down as the blade whipped over them. “The blow just made my head ring a little.”

She slapped him. “Don't make me worry like that!”

“I didn't ask you to!” He propelled her away from him, rolling to the opposite side. The steel came down between them, severing a few silver hairs.

“So what, I'm supposed to not care?” Kagome heard the telltale sounds of Sango's boomerang and ducked. It flew overhead, hitting the youkai in the head but not really affecting it.

“Damn!” they heard her swear. “Miroku, get your perverted ass back up!”

“Inu-Yasha, my arrows!” Kagome called, doing an impressive, contortionist-like move to avoid her head being lopped off. “Stop trying to kill me!”

Inu-Yasha went for her bow and quiver, tossing the former at her—

Only to have it cut in half by the ugly youkai's back swing.

“Gods damn it!” Kagome shrieked.

***

Now that she was the one on top Kagome was starting to work his haori off, viewing his chest with her normal admiring gaze before nipping the flesh at the base of his neck and working her way down.

He let out a sound that was somewhere between a growl and a groan, and Kagome found she liked it. She made her way back up to his mouth and kissed him deeply.

***

Kagome's eyes snapped open to find the sword coming straight down at her. She screamed, knowing there was no way—

It froze mere centimeters from her head. Both the youkai and the miko looked confused until a cold voice said, “Are you going to move or not?”

Kagome fell back and moved away from the deadly weapon. “About time you got here, Sesshoumaru!”

“I was detained in the village.” The inu-youkai ghost waved his hand, and the ugly, solid one flew backwards into a tree. “Inu-Yasha, why were you not protecting her?”

“I'll explain later,” Inu-Yasha snarled, coming over and heaving Kagome to her feet. “Sango, is Miroku up yet?”

“No!”

“Well, hurry up and try to get him awake so he can exorcise this damn youkai!”

“Working on it!” Sango knocked on her fiancé's head.

Sesshoumaru was handling the ugly youkai just fine while she tried to wake him. He was currently holding it several feet off the ground while still standing next to Kagome thirty feet from the tree.

“Where is the shard, Kagome?”

She finally thought to look for the shining spot. “Uh…I don't know. I can't see it anywhere on him. It's around here somewhere, though.” Her eyes started to comb the ground, finally coming to rest on the sword. “It's in his sword!”

Inu-Yasha ran forward and went to pick up the blade, only to yelp as it crackled at him. “What the hell…?”

“I don't think it likes you, Inu-Yasha,” Kagome shouted.

“No fucking duh!”

“Jeez, no need to get crass with me!”

“Then don't state the obvious!”

“Bite me!”

“Shut up, children!” Sesshoumaru roared, slamming the demon into the tree due to his agitation. “Inu-Yasha, learn some self-control. Kagome, stop provoking him.”

“Who asked you?!”

Sesshoumaru sighed. The world is doomed.

***

Kagome traced the purple line on one side of his face with a gentle finger, then let it slip all the way down past his chin, his neck, his chest, and his abdomen before coming to rest at the hem of his hakama.

“Such a fine piece of work,” she purred. “One could study you for eternity and never get bored.

“But let's skip the romantic crap, shall we?” She reached up and rubbed his ears, pleased with the deep growl that rumbled from his chest.

***

Sesshoumaru was staring at them oddly when they both came to. “Should I assume that is your excuse, Inu-Yasha?”

“Yeah. Now shut your yap, Fluffy.”

“I told you not to call me that.”

“Like I ever listen to you.”

The demon started to wheeze as Sesshoumaru's hold tightened, until at last—

“Ewww!” Kagome shrieked as the ugly youkai's head exploded. “Sesshoumaru!”

He didn't reply, leaving the schoolgirl to walk away while trying to brush bits of demon off of her shirt.

“Why does it always have to be so messy when we defeat a youkai?” she asked Inu-Yasha as she leaned down and plucked the shard from the sword's hilt. The aura purified, and she took out the jar so she could add it to their itty-bitty collection. “Hey, we just doubled the amount of shards we've collected!”

Inu-Yasha rolled his eyes. “Real thrilling, wen—”

She grabbed the collar of his haori and pulled him down so that they were nose-to-nose. “Stop. Calling me. Wench. Got that?”

“Fine,” he replied. “Kagome.”

She released him, then patted him on the head. “Good boy!”

“For the last time, I am not some form of pet dog!”

“Doesn't mean you don't like your ears rubbed!” Before he could react she had reached up and assaulted them.

He grabbed her wrists and pulled her fingers out of his ears. “I wouldn't do that if I were you, Kagome,” he said hoarsely.

“Oops.” She blushed. “Sorry. It's just…they're so cute!”

“Yeah, well, don't mess with `em.” He let go of her.

Ears…so…tempting…can't…touch…for bidden…eeee! She attacked again without warning, and Inu-Yasha was knocked over from the force of it.

***

Kagome loved these ears. They were so nice and fuzzy, and—

“Ah!” Inu-Yasha had bit her neck again. He licked it as an apology, then moved over so he could kiss her once more.

***

“I told you to leave my ears alone,” Inu-Yasha snarled down at her.

“I know, but it's the forbidden fruit complex. Always want what you can't have.” She smiled sunnily. “Now get off of me, would you?”

“I would if you'd let go of my ears.”

“Whoops.” Kagome released the fuzzy triangles. “Sorry.”

He snorted, picking himself up off the ground and offering her a hand up. “Feh.”

“Are you two quite done now?” someone called. They turned to see Miroku—finally conscious—leaning on Kirara's back. “We do have shards to collect!”

“Shut up, Miroku!” Inu-Yasha shouted back. “We've already gotten one while you were out!”

The monk looked surprised. “Where's the demon?”

Kagome pointed to the nearby tree. “Sesshoumaru made his head explode.”

Miroku turned a little green. “Oh.”

A/n: I love the line “The world is doomed.”, I got it from Rupert Giles out of Buffy the Vampire Slayer… XD
