InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Perfect Meal ❯ Beautiful Demon ( Chapter 3 )

Chapter 3: Beautiful Demon

 

Kagome laughed as Shippo went through her make-up curiously.

 

“What do you do with all this stuff? Some of it smells good, but some don't!” Shippo stated.

 

“It's supposed to make women more beautiful. The trick is to make it look natural unless you want an intense look,” Kagome tried to explain.

 

“Why would you want to put this stuff on? You're beautiful enough!” Shippo said.

 

“Well thank you Shippo. In this world though there are a lot of people who think that I need this stuff to be pretty,” Kagome smiled.

 

“That's not right. This world is mean,” Shippo said putting all her stuff back where he found it.

 

“Why are you going through Kagome's stuff?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“Relax. He wants to learn more about humans. That's all,” Kagome reassured.

 

“Come on runt. Time to go home. We're hunting tonight,” Inuyasha said.

 

“Hunting?” Kagome asked.

 

“Don't worry Kagome! We won't hunt you!” Shippo promised.

 

“Wait. I have a question. You said I was your perfect meal right?”

 

“Yeah what about it?”

 

“Well shouldn't you want to eat me then?”

 

“It's different with me. I don't like eating humans. Let's go Shippo. I'm going to try to send someone to protect you while we hunt,” Inuyasha stated and disappeared along with Shippo.

 

“Finally some alone time.” Kagome went to her room and grabbed some clothes. She ran the water for her bath and added some bubbles before leaving the bathroom to change. Suddenly a heavy force pushed her against the wall by her bathroom door. She heard a growl ring out in the dark room. Her heart began to race in her ears and her eyes searched the room frantically. She couldn't move. It was as if something was holding her against the wall.

 

“Don't move or make a sound…” a velvet voice whispered in her ear.

 

“She's not here. I'll let her live for a couple months before killing her in front of her darling Inuyasha.” Kagome didn't recognize this voice at all, but she knew that this was the demon Inuyasha was protecting her from.

 

“You're safe now…” The new voice in her mind said. This wasn't Inuyasha's voice.

 

“Who are you?” Kagome asked. The voice didn't answer and Kagome sighed. She went back into the bathroom to turn off the water.

 

“Listen up! If you're still here somewhere I'm going to take a bath so don't even think of spying on me!” Kagome called out. Kagome snorted knowing how crazy she sounded.

Kagome was snuggled underneath her blankets on her bed and rolled over to get more comfortable. She felt someone touching her hair and sighed in content. She loved it when people played with her hair. She felt warm.

 

She opened her eyes to find no one there. She sat up and looked around the room in confusion. The warmth was gone as fast as it came. Who was this demon and why wouldn't he show himself?

 

Suddenly Inuyasha appears in her room and Kagome squealed in surprise.

 

“Calm down Kagome. How was you night?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“Nothing special. Did you send a demon to protect me?”

 

“Yeah, I sent my brother, but he refused to come near you.”

 

“Really? Well I'm safe so I guess that other demon decided to give up on hunting me.”

 

“I wouldn't put it past Naraku. As long as you're safe then nothing else matters.”

 

Kagome blushed at that comment and got out of her bed. She went to her bathroom to wash her face from sleep.

 

“So where's Shippo today?” she asked.

 

“He's relaxing after his big meal,” Inuyasha smiled.

 

“That's good I guess. What did you guys eat for dinner?”

 

“Deer. We couldn't find any bears this time.”

 

“Bears? Oh wow. Will I ever get to see you guys hunt?”

 

“No! We'll just end up hunting you.”

 

Kagome blinked not understanding, but decided to let it go. She went to the kitchen to have a small breakfast.

 

“What's the plan for today?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“Why don't you take a day off? I'll be fine for one day,” Kagome suggested.

 

“Alright. I'll go rest with Shippo then.”

 

“Let's walk to the door together. The door that leads to your world.”

 

“Alright, but under no circumstances can you enter my would. You'll be killed within a second of setting foot inside.”

 

“I understand perfectly.” Kagome nodded and smiled sweetly. She had the day off from work and school so she was planning to go for a walk around the demon world. How strong can demons be anyway? She though she would be able to hold her own.

Kagome peered at the door Inuyasha walked through an hour before. She decided to wait before going to explore. She opened the door and peeked into the darkness. She slowly and quietly crept over the threshold, closing the door behind her. It was just an ordinary door, but it lead to a whole different world. She walked down what seemed like a dark tunnel for a while before entering a world of artificial light. She looked down from the ledge she was on that over looked the whole demon salvation. She smiled at how beautiful it was.

 

“Get out of here…” the voice from last night echoed in her mind. “This is no place for a worthless human.”

 

“Who are you calling worthless?” Kagome yelled getting angry. She began to run down the path leading to the city.

 

“You'll be killed if you come near the city.”

 

“Why do you care? I don't even know you!”

 

“You're my perfect meal…”

 

Kagome froze looking around. Who was this demon? “Come out already!”

 

“I can't.”

 

“Why not?”

 

“I will eat you if I show myself to you.”

 

“But Inuyasha never tried to eat me and I'm his perfect meal too.”

 

“No. He does not know what he's talking about. You are not his perfect meal for he would not be able to stand your sweet, tempting scent. You are mine.”

 

Kagome was shocked. She heard sirens go off in the city and she grew scared.

 

“A human has entered the territory,” a woman chanted over and over through loud speakers.

 

“Run now!”

 

Kagome gulped and took off the way she came. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. She made it to the door but found it locked and bolted. “Shit! What do I do know?”

 

“Get out of the small space. Get into an open area.”

 

Kagome took off to the ledge and saw an open grass field at the bottom. How was she supposed to get down there?

 

“Kagome!” she looked to see Inuyasha in the field. She turned to see a whole swarm of demons climbing up the path.

 

“Jump…”

 

“What? No! I'll die!”

 

“Inuyasha will catch you. Jump.”

 

Kagome looked back at Inuyasha and leapt into the air. She closed her eyes hoping she wouldn't land badly.

 

“Kagome!” Inuyasha called out before she crashed into him. He caught her effortlessly and set her down gently.

 

“What are you doing here?”

 

“I just wanted to explore your world for a bit.”

 

“Get on my back,” he ordered turning around. Kagome climbed on his back and they took off into the air. Inuyasha landed on a balcony and entered the room. The sirens stopped and Inuyasha tossed Kagome on to the nearest couch. He threw blankets and clothes at her.

 

“You have to cover your scent. Change you clothes.”

 

“With you here?”

 

“That is the last of your problems right now. I'll leave anyway. Come out when you're done.” Inuyasha left the room and Kagome quickly changed into the clothes Inuyasha gave her. They were gigantic, but smelled amazing. Whose were these? She left the room and realized they were in a house.

 

“Good I can barely smell you now.”

 

“Whose are these?”

 

“My brother's. We landed in his room.”

 

“Will he mind?”

 

“I do mind. What is a human doing here?” came a familiar voice. Kagome knew this voice well. She turned around and gasped. This demon was god-like. His long silver hair flowed around him making her want to touch it. She examined his flawless features. His square jaw, his high cheekbones, his straight nose all made up his perfect face.

 

“She snuck in here so she'll have to hide here until night comes,” Inuyasha said.

 

“No. Take her somewhere else,” the perfect demon ordered. Kagome stepped closer to him reaching out towards him.

 

“She has nowhere else to go, Sesshomaru,” Inuyasha said.

 

“Sesshomaru…” Kagome whispered almost touching him. This did not please Sesshomaru at all. He snarled viciously baring his pearly white fangs. Inuyasha stepped in front of Kagome growling.

 

“If you ever try that again I'll kill you,” Sesshomaru warned before returning to a room.

 

Kagome stared at the door in shock. Did that really just happen?

 

“Don't take that personally. Sesshomaru just doesn't like humans,” Inuyasha said.

 

“Would it be alright if I took a nap? I'm really tired right now,” Kagome said.

 

“Yeah. Take Sesshomaru's room. He doesn't use it much,” Inuyasha offered. Kagome entered Sesshomaru's room and looked around. She saw the couch she had been thrown on and laid down on it. His room smelled amazing. How could such a mean demon be so beautiful? She sighed and closed her eyes, falling to sleep.
