Part fifteen: Encounter with Kikyo

Kagome lifted the bow and arrow and aimed at her target. She let it go but it missed its mark. She was so close to the bull's eye but was about half and inch off. As she stared at the target another arrow came from nowhere and struck the bull's eye. She turned to see who had intruded on her practice time and saw Kikyo standing smugly behind her.

"You're never going to measure up you know," she told Kagome as she went to retrieve her arrow. "No matter what you did you will always come in second best to me."

"What do you want bitch?" Kagome asked as she looked at the woman. She was tired of her shit and wanted to be left alone.

"Well the little girl has a little fire in her after all," Kikyo said with a condescending grin. "I see you feel like you're a big girl now so you could use big words."

"Get out of my face," Kagome said as she turned to walk away.

"It's too bad about the kid," Kikyo said. Kagome turned and looked at her. "Well now that I think about it, it was kinda a good thing. I mean when Inuyasha and I got married I doubt he would want your kid around and he would have probably killed it for me anyway. I mean it would've been nothing but a bastard."

Kagome moved so fast that Kikyo couldn't escape. Before she knew what was happening she was being held up by her throat. She stared down at the girl in awe and fright. Where did this strength come from?

"Listen bitch. If I hear one word from you again I'll kill you. If I see you again I'll kill you. If I think you're breathing the same air as me at the same time I'll kill. Stay out of my way and you may live to see Inuyasha realize just what a bitch you are."

"Kagome!" yelled a voice. She turned to see Inuyasha and Miroku running towards her. "Kagome put her down."

It wasn't until then that Kagome realized she had lifted Kikyo from the ground and the other woman was about to pass out from lack of air. Kagome loosened her grip and the woman fell to the floor gasping. Kikyo held her throat as she looked up at Kagome with wide eyes. "Remember what I said," Kagome said softly.

"What has gotten into you?" Inuyasha asked angrily. Kagome was about to kill the girl.

Kagome only looked at him with blank eyes. It was like she was looking right through him. "Keep your bitch away from me and there would be no problem," she said then turned to walk away. The threesome watched as she walked away. They didn't know what to think of her at that moment. They had one thought on their minds though. Kagome was a force to be reckoned with.

Kagome knew the way she was acting had everyone on their toes but she didn't care. She refused to be sorry for anything. Her life was fucked with and she had to put things back together and she had no idea where to go from here. Deep inside she was terrified and angry. She had something precious taken away from her all for revenge. This life was not her own but she lived it because she thought she loved Inuyasha. She sighed as she drove. She was in love with Inuyasha. Maybe she was an ass for loving him but she still did. She knew she should get over him and move on but it would be hard to do.

He was the first man to kiss her. He was the first to look at her as a woman. He made her a woman. She experienced so many firsts with him and that meant a lot to her. She couldn't just get over her feelings for him just like that but she knew she had to try. She had hoped eventually Inuyasha would realize it was her he should be with but knew it wouldn't happen.

Kagome thought about the child she'd lost and gripped the steering wheel tightly. She'd always wanted a child someday and though she thought maybe she was too young, she'd wanted the child. She really wanted her baby. Though Inuyasha was set against it she thought maybe he would come to accept the fact that they had created a life and have the child. Now she would never get to hold her baby. She would never get to see if it had her deep brown eyes or Inuyasha's amber ones. She lost her child and it was all because of him. Kagome held back tears as she thought about all she had to do. She would most definitely get out of this life and go back to being Kagome Higurashi. Just a normal teenager.

Kagome walked out of the post office with the envelope in her hands. This was what she had been waiting for, for almost all of her life. she smiled as she held it close to her heart. This was a dream and she would work hard at accomplishing it. She wasn't paying attention to where she was going and collided into a figure. She would've fallen if the person hadn't grabbed hold of her shoulders to steady her.

"Sorry," she muttered as she tried to regain her footing. She took a deep breath and looked up at the person she had collided with. She blushed when she saw it was a boy. He was tall and very cute and looked to be about her age. He had laughing blue eyes as he looked down at her and her blush intensified.

"It's okay. It's not everyday I get ran over by a pretty girl," he said to her. Kagome could feel her face heating up and prayed to Kami he didn't notice. He did. He laughed at her. "I'm sorry if I'm embarrassing you. my name is Tenchi. And may ask what is the name of such a lovely creature?"

"Kagome," she said as she looked at him. he was nothing but a boy. Not some hard edged man like Inuyasha was and that drew her all the more. He reminded her of innocense and she almost yearned to be like him.

"Kagome," he said testing it out. "It's beautiful. Like you."

"Thank you."

"So ms. Kagome I know this may be forward but I was wondering if I could call you sometime. You know maybe we could go out sometime. On a date," he said with a hopeful smile.

Kagome thought about it. She couldn't and shouldn't involve him in her life. he deserved to be with someone that doesn't carry so much baggage. Besides Inuyasha would kill him. Kagome's back straightened as she realized what she had just thought. She didn't give a damn what Inuyasha thought or would do anymore. This was her life. he chose to not be a part of it when he chose Kikyo over her. If he could have Kikyo she could have someone to and she would. She looked up at Tenchi and smiled.

"Sure Tenchi. I would love to go out with you."

"Great! Um how about I take you for lunch right now?" he asked as he smiled down at her.

"I would like that," she said as she grasped his arm and allowed him to lead her to the café across the street.

Inuyasha had received a phone call hours ago. It was from one of the guards he had watching Kagome for her safety. He felt his eye twitch in anger as he was told about her so called 'date'. How dare she? How dare that bitch date another man when she was his mate. He didn't give a damn what happened between them. It was in the past and no matter what she said she was still his. He wanted to rush down to her and kill whoever the guy was but he couldn't. He had some important business to tend to first.

Now that he was free he was ready to track down Kagome but he didn't have to. He was about to get on his bike when she pulled into the courtyard. She shut off the car and got out. She spotted him but didn't say anything. She was going to walk right past him but he grabbed her arm and pulled her over to the garage.

"Where were you this afternoon?" he asked her trying to contain his anger.

"The post office."

"Really? And here I thought you were on a date," he said sarcastically.

"Well if you knew about that why did you bother asking?" she asked as she turned to walk away again but he grabbed her arm and stopped her.

"I have had enough of your shit Kagome," he said angrily.

"And I've had enough of yours. That's the reason I went on that date."

"You will not do that again," he said low.

"Really? And who's going to stop me?" she asked with a nasty scowl.

"I am! I forbid you to see that boy again."

"Go to hell Inuyasha. If you can have Kikyo I can have Tenchi and whoever the hell I want!"

"No you can't. You're my bitch. You belong to me and no one else."

"No Inuyasha. You're your bitch! I told you we were through and I was serious."

"Bitch! I am the leader of this pact and what I say goes. If I say you are forbidden to see this Henchi boy then you are. If I say he's dead then he is. And if I say that you are mine you are. You got that!"

"Fuck you Inuyasha! I don't belong to you. I belong to no one and you will see when this shit is over I will disappear and you will never see me again."

Inuyasha watched as Kagome walked away from him. shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! What was going on? Why was everything so fucked up? He wanted Kagome and she wanted nothing to do with him. he knew what he did was the worst but couldn't she find it in her heart to forgive him. she never gave him the chance to explain. It had all been a mistake. One he had payed for dearly when he lost his child. He hadn't called Kikyo's name because he was choosing her. It was just a reflex and no one seemed to understand that. Especially kagome. Inuyasha needed her back and he swore to himself that he would have her.

Over the past couple of days Sango surveyed a lot of what was going on and she didn't like it. Her brother and his mate was being torn apart more each day. Her best friend was slipping from her and it seemed they were getting no closer to defeating Naraku. The man would evade them at every turn and cause more havoc elsewhere. At nights when they were alone in their bedroom, Sango would hold onto Miroku and cry. She felt like her world was falling apart and nothing was helping. She hoped desperately that Kagome forgive Inuyasha but she knew that would be a long time coming. She couldn't imagine losing a child, something that was a part of her and the cause being her own mate didn't help at all.

She and the others tried to make Inuyasha and Kagome as comfortable as they could but it was driving them nuts. Sango just wished everything would go back to the way it was. She wished her brother had made up his mind a long time ago and realized Kikyo was nothing but a heartless bitch. He didn't see that she tortured Kagome and caused trouble. He only saw her as someone who helped him. well they all helped him. he had men under him following his commands because they trusted him to help them get revenge on a man that ruined their lives.

Sango thought about her brother and all the responsibility he had. Sometimes she pitied him because everything rode on his shoulders. All their victories and defeats would be because of his decisions. Sango admired his strength but felt that now his personal life was interfering with their mission. She was torn. As her leader Sango had to stand back and let him make his decisions. If he fell that was up to him. as her brother she was worried about him. she wanted to do all she could to help him. she made her way towards his office hoping to see him. When she got there, she met Sesshomaru standing before his door. They smiled at each other. They had the same idea.

Without knocking they opened his door and was fortunate to find him sitting behind his desk. He looked up from some papers he was looking over and at them. Sango closed the door behind her and locked it. It was time they all had a conversation. A family conversation. They hadn't talked about anything as a family and not a gang in a long time and the time for that was now.

"So you're telling me with one wish on this jewel Inuyasha can bring back his parents from the dead?" Kagome asked Kaede as she looked down at a picture of the Shikon no Tama.

"Yes," the older woman answered. "It was created in the feudal era from mystical powers. Inuyasha's miko ancestors were in charge of keeping it out of the hands of evil."

"So where is it now?" Kagome asked. if she could find this jewel and give it to Inuyasha then she could leave for good.

"No one really knows. Inuyasha believes Kouga stole it from him and gave it to Naraku. I personally thought that if that was the case we would all be dead. With the power of the jewel Naraku would be invincible."

"So he doesn't have the jewel. If that's the case who does?" Kagome thought to herself.

"I have no idea. I think somewhere between the time Kouga stole it and the time he was supposed to give it to Naraku he lost it."

"That means someone in the world has the jewel and probably doesn't realize what power they have."

"Exactly. With the jewel they could do anything. Its imperative that we get the jewel back to Inuyasha its rightful owner and to do that we need you two to work together."

"We are working together Kaede," Kagome said.

"We need you to work on one accord. The tension between you two is almost tangible and its affecting not only you and him. everyone else feels it and doesn't know how to act around you. there was once a time when you two were so in love."

"Inuyasha never loved me. He made me his mate so I could fulfill the prophecy," Kagome said as she looked down.

"Do you really believe that?" Kaede asked as she put away her findings on the jewel. "I've never seen Inuyasha look at my sister the way he looks at you. he cares deeply for you Kagome even if he doesn't realize it. If he truly wanted Kikyo don't you think he would be with her right now instead of him torturing himself for the pain he caused you."

"He chose her over me Kaede. He chose me to die. He doesn't see the things that she does only the little good. he doesn't see or hear what she does and says to me. He only sees me as the bad person. If he loved me so much why does he always come to her rescue?"

"I know this is not a good excuse but Inuyasha feels he has to protect Kikyo. They've known each other from they were kids and he's always felt it was his responsibility to care for her. Believe it or not but beneath that bad-ass exterior is a big heart and he can't allow anyone he think is weak to get hurt."

"Well if that's the truth why did he chose me to die?"

As Kagome walked out into the garden later that evening her cell phone rang. She answered it quickly not knowing who it could be. "Hello?"

"Kagome? Hi! This is Tenchi."

"Hi Tenchi," she said.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine. is something wrong?" she asked.

"Oh no! I was just wondering if maybe you'd like to go out with me again sometime."

"Oh, I don't know if that would be such a good idea," she said as she thought about Inuyasha. She really did still love him. it was just that she knew Inuyasha had feelings for Kikyo and she refused to play second best.

"Did I do something to displease you?" he asked her with a note of sadness in his voice. in a way Tenchi reminded her of Hojo.

"No. Not at all."

"So maybe you just don't like me."

"No I like you a lot. It's just that--." Kagome really couldn't come up with a valid reason why she didn't want to see him and she just might hurt his feelings. "Okay. I'll see you again. Where do you want to meet?"

"How about we go to see a movie?" he asked her. "I really want to see Bad Boys 2."

"Uh sure. When?"

"Well I have class all this week so how about Saturday at 3?"

"Ok. Saturday it is then."

"Good. I'll see you then. Bye."

"Bye."

"Making a date with your boy toy are you?" asked a voice from behind her. Kagome didn't have to turn to see who it is.

"What's it to you Inuyasha?" she asked. "I don't get in the affairs of you and Kikyo why are you in my business."

"When will you realize that I don't love Kikyo. There is nothing between us. I just can't let her die."

"But you can let me?" she asked him. "Go to her. You two belong together."

"We belong together Kagome. you and me," he said as he pulled her into his arms. He kissed her passionately and Kagome could feel herself falling into him all over again. She could feel her anger and hatred of him slipping. She wanted to believe him. she wanted it to be just the two of them. She felt it was supposed to be them. Kagome felt a presence somewhere and opened her eyes. she saw Kikyo standing there staring at them. She pushed Inuyasha away and waited for his response.

He looked at her trying to determine why she pushed him away. He could feel her giving into him. he could almost feel her going back to her old self. He saw her eyes flicker to behind him and turned to see Kikyo standing there. "Kikyo," he said softly. He made a move in her direction and Kagome took it as a sign that he was turning his back on her again. She chuckled without humor and Inuyasha turned to her because of so dark a sound.

"I should have known. I'll always be a pale comparison to her won't I Inuyasha?" she asked as she turned away from him.

"Kagome wait!" he yelled after her but she refused to look back. "Kagome! It's you I want. Not her! You!"

"Don't lie to us Inuyasha. Eventually one of us is going to leave and it looks like its going to be me."

"No kagome. don't walk away from me cause I'll never leave you alone. You are mine and I'm going to be there for you."

"Why start now?" she asked as she turned and left the couple staring at her back.

Saturday came and against her better judgement, Kagome went out on the date with Tenchi. It had been a very relaxing afternoon. He made her feel like she was just a regular teenage girl and that's what she wanted to be right now. She just wanted to be normal. They went out for something to eat after the movies and when they were done decided they should part then. It was already getting dark and Kagome knew she should be getting back.

In the parking lot she was walking to her car when someone grabbed her arm. She had been grabbed in this manor so many times over the past couple of days that she was used to it.

"Inuyasha," she began and she turned to face the man. Only.....this was not Inuyasha.

"Come with me," he said as he started to pull her. Kagome pulled back trying to escape and the man tried to grab her more. She swung out and punched him in the nose. She heard the bone crack and soon saw blood flowing. She started to run towards her car when she had been tackled from behind. She spun over and kicked the man in the face with the heel of her boot. She heard his outraged cry and scrambled to stand.

When she did so there was another man waiting to attack her. He swung out at her already seeing what she could do. She ducked the punch and threw one of her own. It hit his hard chest and seemed to do nothing to him. she punched him again but he only laughed at her. Enraged Kagome kicked him in the balls and grinned when his eyes crossed and he fell to his knees. She then kicked him in the side of his neck and he fell over as he held his crotch. Someone grabbed her from behind.

She jabbed him in the side then slammed her right heel down on his foot. She spun and punched him in the neck and then kicked him in the groin. When he fell, he fell hard. Kagome was proud of what she did but lost the elated feeling when she realized she was now surrounded by at least five men ready to take her down. She reached behind her to pull out her gun but before she could do that, a man came behind her and grabbed the gun from the waistband of her pants.

"Not so bad anymore are you?" he asked as he came around her. He was holding his nose and Kagome could see he was the man whose nose she had broken.

"Sorry about that by the way," she said sweetly.

"Hands where we could see them."

Kagome rolled her eyes and raised her hands. A man came over and was about to cuff her when the men heard someone behind them.

"I wouldn't touch her if I was you." they all turned to see Inuyasha standing behind them holding two guns.

One of the men smirked at him. "what are you going to do. It's one of you and five of us."

"Yes it does seem unfair but I won't go to hard on you guys," he said with a smirk of his own. He looked over Kagome and saw that she wasn't hurt. Good. now to deal with these bastards.

"You think you could take us?" one of them asked. "then lets do this without weapons."

"If you say so," Inuyasha said as he put away his guns.

"We'll see just if what everyone is saying is true."

"And what are they saying exactly?" Inuyasha asked as he looked past them at Kagome. she had bent to reach into her boot for something. It was a gun.

"That you're an expert at fighting," the man said as he reached behind him for his own gun. He wasn't stupid. He knew if given the chance Inuyasha would kill them.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah. But too bad today you are going to die," he said as he pulled his gun on him. before he could do anything, he was shot. Surprised the man turned on Kagome and was going to shoot her but Inuyasha kicked the gun out of his hand and punched him in the face.

"Get them," the man said from the floor to the others. They began to shoot and Inuyasha and Kagome then and as if choreographed, Kagome and Inuyasha both back flipped over a car and landed behind it taking cover from the bullets.

"Dammit why are you such a target?" Inuyasha asked as they sat side by side.

"Because I'm your mate you asshole," Kagome said as she peaked over and took a few shoots herself.

"So you admit you're still my mate?" Inuyasha asked as he shot one of the guys.

"No. I'll never admit such a thing," she said as she shot out and was almost shot herself.

"Shit! We have to get out of here before you're killed."

"Hey I can protect myself you know," she said as he got angry.

"I know but I can do it better. I want you to run towards your car and I'll cover you."

"If you're sure."

"Of course I am. On three go. 1," Inuyasha said and Kagome readied herself to run. "2--3!" he came from behind the car shooting as fast as he could. Kagome ran towards her car and was lucky that she left the roof down. She jumped into it and started it. She pressed gas and zoomed towards Inuyasha. He was now back to dodging bullets but when he saw her coming he ran over to the car and jumped into it while it was still moving.

"Go! Go! Go!" Inuyasha yelled.

"I'm going!" Kagome yelled back as she sped down the road. She zoomed past the other cars swerving to get away. Just when they thought they were in the clear, a bullet whizzed past Kagome's head. "Shit!"

"I know I know," Inuyasha said as he changed the clips in his guns. He turned to see the black car speeding behind them shooting at them. He shot out the tires of one of the cars and was happy to see it swerve out of control and crashed into a lamp pole. He smirked when Kagome looked back briefly and laughed. Another car took the first's position and they had bullets shot at them again. Kagome swerved around a car and zoomed down but the car was right behind them. She cringed when she heard metal hitting metal a few times.

"That son of a bitch shot my car!" she screamed. She was angry now. "Kill them Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha grinned at her and shook his head. He took a shot but missed when Kagome had to swerve around another car. He looked down at her with a proud smile. She was the perfect accomplish. She was as wild a driver as he was. "Get him Inuyasha. He shot my car again!"

Before Inuyasha could do anything, they heard sirens. "Shit!" he said. "The cops." he slunk back into the seat and held on as Kagome drove.

"I see them." as she looked in the rearview mirror, she saw the police cars chasing after the other car and them. The other car turned off and zoomed down a different street with a few police cars chasing them. The remainder chased after Inuyasha and kagome. Kagome's foot pressed the gas pedal further and she was now going way over a hundred. She zoomed down the street and took sharp turns as she tried to evade them.

She lead the police far away from the mansion and circled an area a few times before going one way then pulling into an alleyway. She shut off the car completely and the two of them slunk down in the seat. Since it was dark and the car was black, the police cars zoomed past them in the wrong direction. When they were sure they wouldn't be discovered, Kagome started the car and pulled out of the alley. She turned in the next direction and headed home.

When they pulled into the courtyard, the others were waiting on them. When Kagome got out of the car she headed right to the back to see what damage had been done to her baby. Sango and Rin ran over to her then.

"We heard you were attacked," Rin said.

"Yeah. They come from nowhere and attacked me in the parking lot of a restaurant. It's a good thing Inuyasha showed up. I'd hate to think what would have happened to me."

"Yeah. A good thing he was following you," Sango said.

"Following me?" Kagome said as she looked up at her. That's right. What was Inuyasha doing there? She walked over to the man and brought his attention to her. "What were you doing following me?" she asked angrily. "Can't I have personal time.

"Your fucking personal time will get you killed. From now on you go nowhere without me. As a matter of fact you're not going anyway. You or any of the other girls."

"And how are you going to keep me here? I'm refused to be bored and there's nothing her to keep me occupied."

Without thinking Inuyasha pulled Kagome into his arms and kissed her in the front of everyone. The gang was happy to see this. Finally the tension between the two would be relieved and they would get back to the way they were.

"I'm thinking if he keeps her occupied that way she won't get bored," Miroku said with a big grin. Sesshomaru rolled his eyes and slapped him in the back of his head although he believed the same thing.

Kagome held onto the iron bed head and arched her back as Inuyasha pounded into her. Her legs were wrapped tightly around her waist as they moved together. They both had so much tension in them that when they finally came together it was almost violent.

"Inuyasha," Kagome moaned as he reached a particular spot in her. She squirmed under him as he continued to move atop of her. He loomed over her as his arms on each side of her braced his body. Instead of getting a response he only growled at her. Kagome shuddered at the sound of his growl and came. Instead of following her with a release of his own, Inuyasha moved out of Kagome and rolled her over to her stomach. He lifted her hips onto she was on her hands and knees. Kagome knew what was coming next and awaited it with growing pleasure.

When Inuyasha entered her, it was so fast and hard it almost hurt. She arched her back as she felt him move out of her completely and slam back into her. She moaned loudly only encouraging him to do it again. The pleasure he was giving her was making her weak and she allowed her lower body to fall to the bed. They both realized in her doing that, he was able to reach new depths in her and caused her to growl as well.

Throughout the night Inuyasha made love to Kagome over and over. It was loud and unbridled and anyone who had heard was almost blushing. The two of them were sure making up for lost time and was reconciling really well. It was a big joke between Sango, Miroku, Sesshomaru and Rin. They were all laughing and making fun as they thought about what the two were actually doing when they heard a sound they had never heard before in their life. It was a long loud howl of a dog demon and his mate.
