InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Snow White and the Seven 'Dwarfs'...Sort of ❯ Why is it Now All My Friends Have Come Back to Haunt Me? ( Chapter 18 )

AN: Hey, remember about that one shot thing I was telling you guys about a couple of chapters ago? I'm not doing it; I didn't really like the idea after I through about it. And I'm really sorry about getting this out so late. Really bad writer's block so bad I couldn't think of anything last week. Any suggestions or opinions you guys have would really be helpful about now.

 

Lust-3

Love-1

 

There are the votes now here's the chapter. Sorry if it sucks or is to short.

 

 

InuyashaLoveLorn- I'm really glad you liked the update; personally I thought it could have been better but thanks for telling me it was good. I am planning on Kanna to tell Inuyasha Kagome is alive, but about her showing him where she is…well you'll just have to see what happens. And I'll look next time I go to Blockbusters for that movie. Oh and thanks for the review, and I hope you think this chapter is as good as the rest of them, especially since I have a little case of writer's block. Ok, maybe not little.

 

GWPH- Hey thanks for reviewing, I don't like Kikyo either. I mean I don't hate hate her; I sort of respect her since she is pretty powerful, but she's a total bitch for not staying dead and dragging Inuyasha with her. God, you'd think someone would have killed her by now. Oh yeah and she will get beat up or at least hurt sometime. I hope you like this chapter has much as you liked the others. Enjoy!

 

 

Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha, but I would like to try some of his Ramen and see what's so great about it, and because I'm really hungry now.

***Inuyasha***

 

“Kagome is dead, Kagome is dead.”

Kikyo's words kept echoing again and again in my head, never letting me forget that my Kagome was dead.

My beautiful, strong Kagome was no longer with me on this earth.

How I prayed to Kami I could have a second chance with her, tell her I was sorry for all the times I'd been insulting towards her, for all the times I never let her touch my ears, tell her all the things that had happened in my life, tell her all the things I wanted in the life ahead of me.

With her.

I cursed myself silently as I turned over on my bed, wrapping her blanket tighter around me. I would give anything just to have that night back, where she slept in my arms and this time I'd tell her how much she meant to me, how I wished I had gotten here earlier to save her from Kikyo. I want to tell her how beautiful and good and pure she was, she never let anything get her down and she would never give up hope for a better life for her people. I never had that kind of devotion for the Western Lands, why would I? Sess is king there, and he would make sure I would never rule. I didn't want to anyway, but I wish I could have watched Kagome rule hers. She loved her people, her kingdom, her castle, everything.

And it made me wonder if there was truly a Kami if He took such a person off this earth. Such a person that cared more about everyone else than herself, who hoped everything would turn out right, who made people feel better just being around her.

And if he could take such a person from the rest of us mortals, I knew no Kami existed.

 

 

***Kagome***

 

I stared up at Sango, shocked beyond words.

“Oh my Kami Sango, I am so glad to see you!” I squealed and threw my arms around her, ignoring the pain that raced up my body at the movement. She slowly put her arms around me; careful of the wounds I hadn't cared about.

“It's good to see you to Princess Kagome.” I rolled my eyes and scowled at her

“I thought we were past all the formalities Sango! Not that I'm a princess anymore.” I muttered the last part under my breath.

“What was that last part Prince- Kagome?”

I beamed at her when she didn't say princess and I didn't answer that question.

“What happened to you Sango? I haven't seen you since my fathers funeral.” Sango sat back up and started cleaning some of the dirt off my shoulders.

“Well, after your father's funeral one of my father's best slayers died, I think it was a sickness of some sort, and since I was the next best in my village I was promoted up to fight with my father and other's of our finest. I was sent with them to the farthest reaches of our world, and fought some of the strongest demons that even a few demons would have had trouble killing. My father also depended on me when dealing with leaders and kings who wouldn't pay us the amount the that had been agreed on before,” she smiled softly and started to wipe some healing ointment into the scratches on my shoulders, “Knowing my father he probably would have threatened them with their lives or body parts if they hadn't paid us the right amount, but if we did that every king would request the services of a ninja tribe instead of ours. So it was up to me to convince them to pay us in a more diplomatic way. I really didn't have any time to come and visit you. Not that I didn't want to, I just couldn't.”

“It's alright, I understand.” I squinted at Sango and the boomerang in the corner.

“You're the demon who throws the disk in the rumors aren't you?” Sango looked at me.

“Since when to you listen to pointless gossip?”

“Kagura told me about these evil demons who lived in the woods when we were about 14 years old. I was interested in them since everyone else was so scared of them. The rumors never said they had any woman through, just men.” Sango rolled her eyes

“Of course all of them think there's just guys, the men who start the rumors think they couldn't possibly been saved by a woman, sexiest pigs.” She kept on muttering under her breath until her words hit me.

“Wait, you guys save people and they think you're evil.”

Sango shrugged. “Old guy thought we called the demons up to eat them, and that we had to kill them because they were out of control or something weird like that. I wasn't really here yet when that happened.”

“Wait so all the demons from the rumors are real?”

“Yes, but there's only six, including myself.”

“Five, we don't count Shippo because he's so small.” Someone joked as they walked inside.

“Hey! I'm only small now, one day I'll be big and stronger than you!”

The man rolled his eyes and glanced down at the small boy at his feet.

“Keep dreaming pup.”

I studied the man first; he was pretty tall, had a long black braid tossed over one shoulder, with large red-pink eyes, almost like Kagura's, wearing amour and he carried a large stick, almost like the staff Miroku carried but it had a silver half circle laying on its side on the top. And with the elaborate outfit he was wearing he looked like Kagura's type. I mentally shook my head to get matchmaking thoughts out of my head and turned back to Sango, who was frowning at me as she cleaned my arms.

“Kagome, just out of curiosity, how did you get that cut on your cheek? And the burn on your…chest?”

I winced, just remembering my poor burn breasts. They were better than they had been, but they were still a little red.

“I fell carrying hot tea and the cut happened on the way down.”

Sango arched her eyebrow and looked over at the man standing in the doorway.

“Hey Hit, go grab some more water for me? Take Shippo with you to.” I glanced down at really looked at the small boy at the man's feet.

He was so cute!

Not like handsome cute, but more like little kid cute. He had bright red hair that was tied behind his head, bright green eyes and a bushy little tail. I would have probably hugged the life out of him if he had been close enough, but he just went out the door on top of the man's shoulder.

“Now that we're alone again Kagome,” Sango started and threw her cloth on the side table as she waited for more water, “Where were you carrying hot tea that you were to trip and fall? Isn't carrying hot tea around a servants job?”

Damn, I forgot that royalty doesn't do that, when did she get so smart? Wait she's been smart. Maybe I should just tell her the truth? She is my friend. I sighed.

“I suppose you told everyone I was a princess?”

“Well, you are one.”

“I was one.”

“What do you mean?” asked confused and worried.

“I think this is something I have to let all of you know.”

“Well, alright.”

“What do you have to tell all of us?” The man with the braid asked as he walked back in with a pail of hot water. Sango picked the cloth back up dipped it in, and started cleaning dirt and blood off me again.

“Can you get some more herbs and cloth for her wounds to please?”

The man nodded and leaned out the door,

“Hey the last person has to get more herbs and shit for Sango!” What sounded like a million people's footsteps pounded up the steps, and I winced at the thought of my clean stairs being dirtied, while three people ran in and slammed the door behind them. A loud moan was heard through the door, but whoever it was started going back downstairs to get more herbs. The man with the braid pulled a chair out from the corner of the room and pulled it close to the bed, while Sango helped me up into a sitting position, leaning me against a few propped up pillows and covered what was half of my clothes and wounded body with a old blanket. One of the people who had come in, a woman with hair a shade darker than Shippo's bright red hair, and eyes as dark as the forest. She had a white pelt wrapped around her shoulders, the same kind of fur skirt over top of a slick leather red and black top. She had a pretty emerald clasp of three jewels holding the fur around her shoulders, the one in the middle slightly bigger then the other two and a gold chain wrapped once around her forehead. She had a sword tucked close to her, her red hair in ponytails that didn't look childish on her with a flower tucked in one, and she carried herself like a queen. She sat down on the bed frame at the foot of the bed close to Shippo, rested her chin on her face supported by an elbow on her knee and stared openly at me. Another man with long black hair that was tied behind him in a high ponytail grabbed another chair and sat opposite the man with the braid and stretched out his legs. He had a brown sweatband around his head, brown fur boots, kilt, and a black and gray leather top with ice cold blue eyes and a tail furrier than Shippo's. He had a sword that didn't look like it was used much. He grinned briefly at me, showing off wolf fangs. I glanced at Sango, ready for her to start talking. She took a deep breath.

“Everybody, this is Princess Kagome- I mean this is Kagome, one of my friends since I was 13. I haven't seen her in awhile, so please don't freak her out more than necessary. Kagome, this is everyone. The red wolf female is Ayame of the Northern Mountains.”

She nodded to me. “Hello.” I glanced at her; trying to figure out what demon she was in the rumors.

“You're the demon who can use the earth against you, aren't you?”

She beamed at me,

“Yay, finally someone who didn't think I was Shippo! How did you know?”

I shrugged. “You walk to much like royalty to have the innocence needed to led someone to their death.” I said finally, amusement in my voice.

“Well, that's because I am-“

“Ayame, let's save out stories for later ok?” Sango broke in. Ayame rolled her eyes but shut up.

Sango turned to Shippo. “Kagome, this is Shippo, Shippo, Kagome.”

He stared at me. I stared back, wanting to hug and cuddle him and spoil him until his stomach burst open from treats. But I had to be sure of something first.

“You don't really lead humans to their deaths to you?”

He rolled his eyes “Of course not.”

With a squeal I pulled him into my arms, squeezing so tight, I wasn't sure if he could breath. I kept saying how cute he was while everyone else sort of stared in amazement. Finally Sango let out a short chuckle.

“I remember hearing from Kagura that you love kids, sorry, should have warned you Shippo.”

I finally stopped hugging him, and he stayed in my lap, shocked but happy. The man with the fur kilt snorted.

“What are you trying to do woman, squeeze the life out of him?”

I narrowed my eyes at him.

“My name isn't woman, it's Kagome. Ka-go-me. It's only six letters, you can say it easily.”

“I can call you whatever I want woman.”

Shippo stiffened in my lap and said before I could

“Oh stuff it would ya? She's hurt, just leave her alone.”

“Since when do you take stranger's sides Shippo?”

“Kagome isn't a stranger if Sango knows her, and she likes me.” He said proudly. The man rolled his eyes but didn't say anything.

“And the rude baka back there,” Sango said dryly, “Is Kouga of the East.”

I looked at him, “You're the one who has the wolves eat people?”

He rolled his eyes again. “Some stupid humans thought that a few of my wolves were coming to eat them when they were only going after the deer near them.”

Sango glared at him. “Anyway, the guy with the braid is Hiten.”

He nodded to me. I didn't see any swords on him.

“So you're the demon who shoots lightening at armies?”

“No, that was my brother. He's dead now but I have his power and my own.”

“You going to tell us why you're here now?” Kouga asked rudely.

“Kouga!” Sango said sharply at him, “Don't be so rude. Wait till we're all here.”

“Wait, did anyone take my stew off the fire?”

Hiten stood up and walked to the door, opened it, and yelled down,

“Hey, while you're down here, grab some of that stew and bring it up.”

“But I'm coming up now with the herbs!” a voice shouted back.

“So? It can't take that long.”

“Kami sometimes you're so annoying!”

Hiten closed the door and wandered back to his chair.

“So while we wait, why don't you liked to be called `princess? Sango tells us you are one”

“Can we wait till the other person gets up here? I don't want to explain things twice.”

He sighed. “Fine”

There was a strange silence as we waited for the other person to get here and Sango had to wait till the guys left to start cleaning my stomach and legs. So she worked on getting the dirt, blood and twigs out of my hair and trying to get the knots out. Finally we heard soft footsteps coming up the stairs and someone nearing the door. We all looked at the door, waiting for the last person to step in. And when she did I gasped out loud.

It was Rin.

I felt all the blood rush out of my head as Rin dropped the tray she carried and I passed out, from pain, shock, and amazement.
