Love, Murder, and Betrayal
By: Miztikal-Dragon
Chapter seven: What the hell is going on?
The girl grew warm against him rather quickly, but he couldn't let go. He felt as though he was stuck in place.
Kagome's eyes flew open, the wind blew fiercely even though they were all in an enclosed garage, and the wind came from her. Inuyasha stared at her still, her body grew hot and her aura turned from a blue to a blinding white. She turned in Sesshomaru's grasp, facing him she grabbed the sides of his arms digging her nails into his flesh.
"Time for revenge." She muttered.
Sesshomaru looked at her horrified, 'Fuck, she's a priestess! I'm going to die by the hands of a human, none the less a human girl.'
The girl drew her lips to his ears and whispered, "Life's a bitch, see you in hell." a bright light flashed in front of them and pain seared through Sesshomaru's body. He let out a howl of pain.
Inuyasha growled, the light Kagome gave off was blinding, she was going to purify his brother. The hanyou was not going to let that happen.
"Wench, you'd better release him." He warned.
"Traitor's must be punished," Kagome said in a low voice.
Inuyasha picked up a metal bar that was lying by the door. "Naraku, you'd better leave or else."
Kagome laughed and released Sesshomaru. He slumped to the ground, still alive but barely. Kagome turned to face Inuyasha, her blood was caked on her body, and almost all of it had dried.
"You can't stop me. I will have what I want!" she said.
Her voice was different, it was as though she wasn't even aware of what she was doing. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes, Kagome's voice sounded as though it was a cross between her complete innocence, but yet disguised poorly by pure evil. He'd heard this voice before when Naraku took over Kikyo.
"Watch me!" he screamed charging Kagome.
He brought the bar powerfully down on Kagome's feet, tripping her. Naraku yelled in pain, "When we meet again, you won't be so lucky."
Kagome began to cry, looking at her hands. Blood was everywhere, some of it was hers. Inuyasha dropped to his knees and wrapped his arms around her.
"Shh, it's okay. Everything's going to be okay." He whispered.
The hanyou looked over to where his brother had laid, but Sesshomaru was gone. He held Kagome closer to him, resting his head on hers. Inuyasha closed his eyes and unconsciousness claimed him.
oOo
A phone rang.
"Hello?" a man said sleepily.
"Jaken, get up." Another man said.
"Lord Sesshomaru, is that you?" the man named Jaken replied.
"Yes. I need you to bring the limousine to my place, and be quick." Sesshomaru demanded.
Jaken climbed out of his bed and walked down the hallway, "Is everything alright milord?"
"Don't ask questions." Sesshomaru growled angrily, "Just pack my things, all of my clothing material and the rest of my junk. I'm going on a business trip."
"Aye milord, right away." Jaken replied as he entered one of Sesshomaru's many rooms.
The wounded Inuyoukai hung up and sighed. He held himself up with the aide of a near by tree, 'Jaken will be here in a matter of moments,' he told himself. Looking down at his arms, Sesshomaru saw the handprints that were burned into his skin. He growled to himself. Minutes slowly went by and Jaken had not shown so Sesshomaru pulled out his cell phone and dialed a number. It rang a few times and before he hung up a tired old woman answered.
"Moushi, Moushi?" she breathed heavily.
"Lady Kaede, I presume." He spoke calmly.
"Aye, what is it that ye want Lord Sesshomaru?" Kaede replied.
"Come to Inuyasha's place, he needs you. And if you would like to see him alive you would better come quickly. That is all." He answered.
"Aye." She hung up.
A big black limousine rolled slowly down the street, when it reached Sesshomaru it stopped. Jaken jumped out of the car and rushed over to Sesshomaru.
"Milord! What happened to you!" Jaken asked pointing to the Inuyoukai's wounds.
"Don't ask questions!" Sesshomaru snapped making his way into the back seat of the car.
He settled himself down into the leather seats, they felt cold to his back. Jaken sat across from him and stared in disbelief. The wounded demon growled as he took of his tattered silk shirt and tossed it to the floor of the limo. He let the cold seats ease and relax his muscles. Sesshomaru turned on his classical music and closed his eyes.
"Jaken, I'm going to the airport, tell the driver to hear there now. Call and get me first class tickets to Tokyo, you're coming with me." Sesshomaru ordered coldly.
Jaken nodded, climbing into the passenger seat and spoke with the driver, then continued setting up everything so his boss wouldn't grow angrier than he already seemed. 'I wonder what type of demon did this to Lord Sesshomaru?' Jaken asked himself.
oOo
Kaede hung up the phone and slowly walked to a closet, where she pulled out many herbs.
"I wonder what Inuyasha did this time?" She sighed as she put the herbs into a rather large bag.
Minutes passed by and Kaede made it out to her car and climbed into it. As she headed towards the hanyou's house. Normally Kaede drove like a maniac while on the road, that day was no exception, though she did drive more cautiously if not faster than usual.
'I haven't seen Inuyasha in a few years.' The old priestess thought, 'Why would Sesshomaru call me?' She pondered these and other thoughts as she drove quickly down the interstate highway. Soon she gave up all hope of answering her questions without discovering more than what she had started off with.
Kaede reached Inuyasha's house about an hour and a half later. She cursed under her breath as she climbed out of her old car, carrying a giant bag of herbs. When she came to the front door she found it unlocked. Kaede walked in and set her things down on an empty kitchen table.
She cautiously looked around, finding no sign of Sesshomaru or even Inuyasha. Kaede grew worried as she searched throughout the house. She finally gave up on the search and simply called out.
"Inuyasha? Are ye present? Inuyasha?"
oOo
Kagome opened her eyes when she heard a car park right outside the garage. She tried to move, but Inuyasha held her tightly in his grasp. The hanyou's arms were wrapped around her body. Her limbs were stuck and his head lay on top of hers. She was immobile. Kagome shifted her weight a bit only to cry out as shooting pain went up her legs. Inuyasha moved, but only slightly. She looked down to find herself covered in blood, his blood.
That's when she heard an old woman call out Inuyasha's name. Kagome tried to call back, but her voice only let out a tiny squeak, she coughed loudly straining her voice she yelled as loud as she could, which only happened to be a little louder than a whisper.
"Pl…..h..elp…We're ….in," cough, "here." She cried.
The seemed to have worked, because a moment later a rather old woman entered the garage to find Inuyasha, blood practically covered the cemented floor. She rushed over to his aide, only to find a rather young girl wrapped in his arms. Kaede looked at the girl and noted how frightened she looked.
"It's okay dear, I'm lady Kaede, and I'm here to help. So sleep." She whispered as she put a finger on Kagome's forehead.
Kagome instantly grew tired and closed her eyes, letting sleep claim her. Kaede smiled and began to work.
oOo
Inuyasha's eyes fluttered open and he stared at his bedroom ceiling for a few, then when everything came flooding back his eyes went wide and he shot up to a sitting position. He looked around to see that he was in his bedroom, quickly he got out of bed and tore apart his room. He scrambled out into the hallway trashing around every room he could.
"Kagome, where are you! Kagome!" he yelled as he jumped down the stairs. He slipped on a blanket and fell backwards. He cursed under his breath as he stood back up, rubbing his backside.
"Inuyasha. I see that ye have awaken." A rather old and familiar voice said from the kitchen.
The hanyou frowned as he walked into the kitchen. He pulled out a chair and sat down, "What are you doing here, you old hag?"
"Well Inuyasha, if it wasn't for I, ye and that young maiden probably wouldn't be here now." She said coldly.
She took a small mug form out the cabinet and set it on the table, then she walked over to the stove and with some cooling pads she took a teapot and poured some of the liquid into the tiny cup. Under the teapot she put a cooling pad and sat it back down on the table. When she looked up at Inuyasha she saw one very confused boy, so she sat down as well, and sighed taking a sip from the cup.
"What do you mean?" Inuyasha asked puzzled.
"If I had not tended to ye wounds when I did, ye wouldn't be living anymore." She replied taking yet another sip of the hot liquid.
Inuyasha lifted up his shirt to find no sign of any wounds. Then he looked at his wrist, 'Nope, nothing.' He thought, "How long have I been out?"
"Ye've been unconscious for about a good week."
"Wh-wha-What a week!" Inuyasha gasped loudly, "But where's Kagome? Is she okay?"
Kaede raised her eyebrows curiously, "Why Inuyasha? She is at school of course, ye know her mother was worried sick when the young lass didn't return home when I found ye two."
"Well has she come to see how I have been doing? Did she say anything?" he asked hastily.
"Nay, my child she hasn't." Kaede responded after a moment's pause.
The hanyou dropped his gaze to his fingers and sighed, 'I should have known.' He told himself. Growing angry Inuyasha stood up quickly, knocking over the chair he sat in and stormed off to his room where he slammed his door and collapsed onto his bed. He started to punch his pillows furiously, resulting in the end leaving himself with two torn up pillowcases and feathers all around him. A little while later when Inuyasha had calmed down a bit he sat down at his computer and logged onto his messenger system.
GaurdianOfDarkness: hey inu, where have you been? Y ain't u school?

oOo
Inuyasha turned of his computer and grabbed a black pair of baggy jeans and his Metallica shirt and his shoes. He then rushed into the bathroom and showered quickly, when he finished, Inuyasha threw on his clothes, brushed his hair and fangs. Going back to his room he put his Saliva c.d. in and turned it up really loud on his stereo. Hoping that Kaede would believe he was still in his room the pretty ticked off Inuyasha carefully opened his window and climbed out, closing his window he jumped onto a near by tree and quickly slid down the trunk.
"I'll show Koga. He and Naraku will pay!" he growled to himself. Inuyasha quickly jogged to the high school where he sat on the roof and waited for school to end.
oOo
Kagome laughed at Koga's joke as they walked down the halls. She smiled, 'It's good to see him again, and that he doesn't hate me for dumping him,' she thought as adjusted her backpack.
"So Koga, why did you come back to America? I thought that you'd never come back." She said as she stopped at her locker.
He blushed and handed Kagome her books one by one as she placed them into her locker. "Well I just wanted to see you again, because I knew that you'd be all alone." His blush grew a darker shade of red.
She turned and looked at him for a moment then started to giggle as she pointed to his face, "Koga you look like a plumb. Are you okay?"
Koga smiled and rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand. "Uh, yeah I'm okay," he grew serious all of a sudden. "Hey could I walk you home?"
Kagome closed her locker and shifter her backpack onto the other shoulder, "Sure. Why not it's such a beautiful day for walking anyway."
They started walking down the halls again, talking rather loudly about what happened before Koga came. Okay well mainly he spoke because for Kagome it was completely blank. All she could remember was going to school coming home and doing homework. She smiled and nodded during most of it. When they stepped off of the school's campus he started talking rather quickly, mainly mumbling and leaving out words, but she heard three words perfectly clear. "Miroku and Sango."
She abruptly stopped him and glared at him, "what about Miroku and Sango?"
Koga shrugged, "I dunno" and tried to start walking again when Kagome grabbed his arm.
"Please tell me. I miss them so much." She pleaded as tears brimmed on her eyes threatening to fall.
He caved in and said, "I caught them making out on the parks floor. It was rather--"
She giggled and hugged him, "I always knew they'd get together. How cute, I'm so jealous." She laughed for a bit trying to imagine the always-perverted Miroku kissing the ever so organized and refined Sango.
Koga rolled his eyes and continued to walk with the giggling Kagome until they reached her house.
"Well here I am." She said as she turned facing Koga. She gave him a small hug and a kiss on his cheek. It made him turn dark red. "I guess I will see you tomorrow Koga." She left him standing there completely dumbfounded. When he couldn't see her anymore, Koga turned around and headed back to his hotel room. All the way down town.
Kagome tossed her things on the couch as she walked into the kitchen. Her mother smiled as she cooked dinner. Kagome sat down in a chair and sighed heavily leaning on her arm.
"Kagome dear what's wrong?" her mom asked as she too pulled up an empty chair and sat across from her daughter.
"I don't know why, but I feel something important is missing mama. Like I forgot something and now I can't seem to remember what."
"Oh, it's okay Hun. You've been through a lot just give it a few days. In the meanwhile march yourself up those stairs and do your homework while I finish cooking dinner." Her mom said smiling.
Kagome got to her feet and walked into the living room, picking up her backpack and headed up the stairs. "Thanks mom!" she called out as she went to her room. She concentrated on her homework for a few hours and when she finished, Kagome went over to her computer desk and sat down turning on her PC and signed on.
MoonLitMaiden: Well it's nice to see you again.
Canibul-Gurl: you to Kagome, how's school in America?
MoonLitMaiden: well it's a lot different Eri, but Koga's here so I'm not too lonely.
Canibul-Gurl: didn't you break up with him?
MoonLitMaiden: Yeah, but he's here and that's all ya know.
Kagome's mother entered the room with a plate and a cup. She smiled as she set it down on the computer desk. "Here Kagome dear, I decided to bring dinner up to you tonight, hope you like it." Her mom left when Kagome said thanks.
Canibul-Gurl: So why are you hanging out with him? I thought that you broke up on a bad note?
MoonLitMaiden: we did.
Canibul-Gurl: Kagome, why do you lead on guys then leave them standing there?
MoonLitMaiden: well I didn't think that he'd come all the way from Tokyo just to se me and keep me company.
Canibul-Gurl: That's it. You don't think. And when you always get what you want you leave everything and one behind. You're so selfish.
MoonLitMaiden: Excuse me! I'm sorry I'm such a horrible friend. But I don't see you with the best friend of the year award talk about being selfish. Why don't' you go and look in the mirror!
Your last message couldn't be sent to Canibul-Gurl, because you've been blocked from sending messages to Canibul-Gurl on this server.
Kagome let out an angry scream as she jumped out of her chair, knocking over her food and drink. Kagome stormed out of her house as she slammed the front door she yelled back to her mom, "I'm going for a walk! I'll be back!" angrily she stormed down the street at a fast pace. She didn't know where she was headed to until she reached the school's park. Kagome sighed as she went over to a swing and sat down.
"Why is everyone against me?" she whispered as a tear fell down her pale cheek.
oOo
Inuyasha waited rather impatiently for the final bell to ring signaling for the end of the school day. He paced around the whole roof area. He was bout to go storm the halls looking for Kagome when he heard a familiar voice coming from an empty classroom.
"Don't worry I've dealt with our old problem, though now it seems that another has arisen. He may ruin our original plans if he gets too close." Naraku said as though he was dictating to a group of people.
"A few men and myself can handle this Koga character if you'd like Naraku." Yet another familiar voice said.
Inuyasha stiffed a growl as his body tensed up. He dug his claws into the cement railing. 'You traitor! I'll kill you myself. How dare you betray me!' he thought.
A minute later the bell rang but the hanyou was glued to the conversation going on underneath him.
"No, No that won't be necessary Frank. I have plans for Koga. And I know the perfect little lady who will help me!" Naraku laughed wickedly, practically cackling.
Everything grew quiet as the group poured out of the classroom, exiting the campus. Inuyasha followed Naraku and his gang, keeping a rather big distance so he wouldn't get caught and yet close enough to hear what was being said. He ended up at Frank's house.
By the time Inuyasha gave up on trying to listen in, it had already began to get dark. He decided to take a short cut home, because he already knew that Kaede would have gone up to his room and checked up on him. The hanyou passed the school and headed into the park. He found a bench close by and sat down.
"Well this blows. I give up." He sighed as he rubbed his temples, 'Great just great! Now I have to deal with Koga. This can't get any worse.'
Inuyasha could hear footsteps coming closer, he sniffed the air. The scent over whelmed his nose. Quickly he stood up, turned around and there she was. Kagome was walking towards him, He opened his mouth to say something, but no words penetrated his throat. She walked right passed him without saying a word to him. Inuyasha followed her hoping she'd stop. After a few minutes she stopped and faced him, an angry look covered her face. He was shocked and backed up a few steps.
"What do you want? And why are you following me?" she glared at him.
"….."
"Fine don't answer me, but quit stalking me you weirdo!" she snapped as she started to walk away.
Inuyasha panicked and grabbed her wrist, "Wait Kagome."
She stopped and looked at him. "How do you know my name?"
"How could I not? You've all I've been able to think about since we met." He said awkwardly.
Kagome pulled her wrist out of his grasp and put her finger in his face. "Look you, I don't know who you are and I've never seen you before. You've got to be talking about somebody else."
Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Kagome and held her in a tight embrace, "I know you know who I am, but don't tell me lies." He whispered in her ear. Kagome pulled away angrily shoving Inuyasha back.
"How dare you! You just start talking to me like you know me, and insist that I am a liar--"
"I didn't say tha--"
"Yes you did. And if you try anything else I'll have my boyfriend kick your ass. Now leave me alone you freak." She screamed.
The hanyou narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest. He stiffed an angry growl, "You're dating Koga? How pathetic Kagome."
"Yes I am, and I have been since before I left. Duh.. How dumb are you!" she said sarcastically lying through her teeth.
"Feh!" Inuyasha walked passed her and left her standing there, "I should of known you'd go back to him. You just can't handle a challenge."
Kagome turned around to look at Inuyasha, but he was gone. A completely confused Kagome slowly walked home. Her mind raced with many questions. She quietly crept into her bedroom to find everything cleaned, "Thanks mom you're too kind." She whispered as she changed into a baggy T-shirt and boxers. She walked into her bathroom and brushed her hair. After a while she gave up on thinking and crawled into her bed. She turned off her light and closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.

"Well has she come to see how I have been doing? Did she say anything?" he asked hastily.
"Nay, my child she hasn't." Kaede responded after a moment's pause.
The hanyou dropped his gaze to his fingers and sighed, 'I should have known.' He told himself. Growing angry Inuyasha stood up quickly, knocking over the chair he sat in and stormed off to his room where he slammed his door and collapsed onto his bed. He started to punch his pillows furiously, resulting in the end leaving himself with two torn up pillowcases and feathers all around him. A little while later when Inuyasha had calmed down a bit he sat down at his computer and logged onto his messenger system.

oOo
Inuyasha turned of his computer and grabbed a black pair of baggy jeans and his Metallica shirt and his shoes. He then rushed into the bathroom and showered quickly, when he finished, Inuyasha threw on his clothes, brushed his hair and fangs. Going back to his room he put his Saliva c.d. in and turned it up really loud on his stereo. Hoping that Kaede would believe he was still in his room the pretty ticked off Inuyasha carefully opened his window and climbed out, closing his window he jumped onto a near by tree and quickly slid down the trunk.
"I'll show Koga. He and Naraku will pay!" he growled to himself. Inuyasha quickly jogged to the high school where he sat on the roof and waited for school to end.
oOo
Kagome laughed at Koga's joke as they walked down the halls. She smiled, 'It's good to see him again, and that he doesn't hate me for dumping him,' she thought as adjusted her backpack.
"So Koga, why did you come back to America? I thought that you'd never come back." She said as she stopped at her locker.
He blushed and handed Kagome her books one by one as she placed them into her locker. "Well I just wanted to see you again, because I knew that you'd be all alone." His blush grew a darker shade of red.
She turned and looked at him for a moment then started to giggle as she pointed to his face, "Koga you look like a plumb. Are you okay?"
Koga smiled and rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand. "Uh, yeah I'm okay," he grew serious all of a sudden. "Hey could I walk you home?"
Kagome closed her locker and shifter her backpack onto the other shoulder, "Sure. Why not it's such a beautiful day for walking anyway."
They started walking down the halls again, talking rather loudly about what happened before Koga came. Okay well mainly he spoke because for Kagome it was completely blank. All she could remember was going to school coming home and doing homework. She smiled and nodded during most of it. When they stepped off of the school's campus he started talking rather quickly, mainly mumbling and leaving out words, but she heard three words perfectly clear. "Miroku and Sango."
She abruptly stopped him and glared at him, "what about Miroku and Sango?"
Koga shrugged, "I dunno" and tried to start walking again when Kagome grabbed his arm.
"Please tell me. I miss them so much." She pleaded as tears brimmed on her eyes threatening to fall.
He caved in and said, "I caught them making out on the parks floor. It was rather--"
She giggled and hugged him, "I always knew they'd get together. How cute, I'm so jealous." She laughed for a bit trying to imagine the always-perverted Miroku kissing the ever so organized and refined Sango.
Koga rolled his eyes and continued to walk with the giggling Kagome until they reached her house.
"Well here I am." She said as she turned facing Koga. She gave him a small hug and a kiss on his cheek. It made him turn dark red. "I guess I will see you tomorrow Koga." She left him standing there completely dumbfounded. When he couldn't see her anymore, Koga turned around and headed back to his hotel room. All the way down town.
Kagome tossed her things on the couch as she walked into the kitchen. Her mother smiled as she cooked dinner. Kagome sat down in a chair and sighed heavily leaning on her arm.
"Kagome dear what's wrong?" her mom asked as she too pulled up an empty chair and sat across from her daughter.
"I don't know why, but I feel something important is missing mama. Like I forgot something and now I can't seem to remember what."
"Oh, it's okay Hun. You've been through a lot just give it a few days. In the meanwhile march yourself up those stairs and do your homework while I finish cooking dinner." Her mom said smiling.
Kagome got to her feet and walked into the living room, picking up her backpack and headed up the stairs. "Thanks mom!" she called out as she went to her room. She concentrated on her homework for a few hours and when she finished, Kagome went over to her computer desk and sat down turning on her PC and signed on.
MoonLitMaiden: Well it's nice to see you again.
Canibul-Gurl: you to Kagome, how's school in America?
MoonLitMaiden: well it's a lot different Eri, but Koga's here so I'm not too lonely.
Canibul-Gurl: didn't you break up with him?
MoonLitMaiden: Yeah, but he's here and that's all ya know.
Kagome's mother entered the room with a plate and a cup. She smiled as she set it down on the computer desk. "Here Kagome dear, I decided to bring dinner up to you tonight, hope you like it." Her mom left when Kagome said thanks.
Canibul-Gurl: So why are you hanging out with him? I thought that you broke up on a bad note?
MoonLitMaiden: we did.
Canibul-Gurl: Kagome, why do you lead on guys then leave them standing there?
MoonLitMaiden: well I didn't think that he'd come all the way from Tokyo just to se me and keep me company.
Canibul-Gurl: That's it. You don't think. And when you always get what you want you leave everything and one behind. You're so selfish.
MoonLitMaiden: Excuse me! I'm sorry I'm such a horrible friend. But I don't see you with the best friend of the year award talk about being selfish. Why don't' you go and look in the mirror!
Your last message couldn't be sent to Canibul-Gurl, because you've been blocked from sending messages to Canibul-Gurl on this server.
Kagome let out an angry scream as she jumped out of her chair, knocking over her food and drink. Kagome stormed out of her house as she slammed the front door she yelled back to her mom, "I'm going for a walk! I'll be back!" angrily she stormed down the street at a fast pace. She didn't know where she was headed to until she reached the school's park. Kagome sighed as she went over to a swing and sat down.
"Why is everyone against me?" she whispered as a tear fell down her pale cheek.
oOo
Inuyasha waited rather impatiently for the final bell to ring signaling for the end of the school day. He paced around the whole roof area. He was bout to go storm the halls looking for Kagome when he heard a familiar voice coming from an empty classroom.
"Don't worry I've dealt with our old problem, though now it seems that another has arisen. He may ruin our original plans if he gets too close." Naraku said as though he was dictating to a group of people.
"A few men and myself can handle this Koga character if you'd like Naraku." Yet another familiar voice said.
Inuyasha stiffed a growl as his body tensed up. He dug his claws into the cement railing. 'You traitor! I'll kill you myself. How dare you betray me!' he thought.
A minute later the bell rang but the hanyou was glued to the conversation going on underneath him.
"No, No that won't be necessary Frank. I have plans for Koga. And I know the perfect little lady who will help me!" Naraku laughed wickedly, practically cackling.
Everything grew quiet as the group poured out of the classroom, exiting the campus. Inuyasha followed Naraku and his gang, keeping a rather big distance so he wouldn't get caught and yet close enough to hear what was being said. He ended up at Frank's house.
By the time Inuyasha gave up on trying to listen in, it had already began to get dark. He decided to take a short cut home, because he already knew that Kaede would have gone up to his room and checked up on him. The hanyou passed the school and headed into the park. He found a bench close by and sat down.
"Well this blows. I give up." He sighed as he rubbed his temples, 'Great just great! Now I have to deal with Koga. This can't get any worse.'
Inuyasha could hear footsteps coming closer, he sniffed the air. The scent over whelmed his nose. Quickly he stood up, turned around and there she was. Kagome was walking towards him, He opened his mouth to say something, but no words penetrated his throat. She walked right passed him without saying a word to him. Inuyasha followed her hoping she'd stop. After a few minutes she stopped and faced him, an angry look covered her face. He was shocked and backed up a few steps.
"What do you want? And why are you following me?" she glared at him.
"….."
"Fine don't answer me, but quit stalking me you weirdo!" she snapped as she started to walk away.
Inuyasha panicked and grabbed her wrist, "Wait Kagome."
She stopped and looked at him. "How do you know my name?"
"How could I not? You've all I've been able to think about since we met." He said awkwardly.
Kagome pulled her wrist out of his grasp and put her finger in his face. "Look you, I don't know who you are and I've never seen you before. You've got to be talking about somebody else."
Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Kagome and held her in a tight embrace, "I know you know who I am, but don't tell me lies." He whispered in her ear. Kagome pulled away angrily shoving Inuyasha back.
"How dare you! You just start talking to me like you know me, and insist that I am a liar--"
"I didn't say tha--"
"Yes you did. And if you try anything else I'll have my boyfriend kick your ass. Now leave me alone you freak." She screamed.
The hanyou narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest. He stiffed an angry growl, "You're dating Koga? How pathetic Kagome."
"Yes I am, and I have been since before I left. Duh.. How dumb are you!" she said sarcastically lying through her teeth.
"Feh!" Inuyasha walked passed her and left her standing there, "I should of known you'd go back to him. You just can't handle a challenge."
Kagome turned around to look at Inuyasha, but he was gone. A completely confused Kagome slowly walked home. Her mind raced with many questions. She quietly crept into her bedroom to find everything cleaned, "Thanks mom you're too kind." She whispered as she changed into a baggy T-shirt and boxers. She walked into her bathroom and brushed her hair. After a while she gave up on thinking and crawled into her bed. She turned off her light and closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.
