InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Some things are meant to be ❯ Another Meeting ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimer: I own them! * wakes up* and I don't own them. Damn!

 

GJay: Life is like a box of chocolates…

 

Shippo: It's gone before you know it?

GJay: Um, actually, you never know what you're going to get. But if you think about it, yours makes sense, too!

Inuyasha: GJaaaaaay! I was only in the last chapter a little bit!

Sesshomaru: Ha! You are wining like the half-breed you are! This Sesshomaru therefore claims the Tetsaiga!

Inuyasha: Dream on! You have about as much of a chance getting MY sword as Koga does getting Kagome! *pulls Kagome into a room and we start hearing “sounds”*

Koga: Nooooooooo! Oh, well, at least I still have Ayame. *pulls Ayame into a room and we start hearing “sounds”*

Miroku: well, I'm sure they're having fun. Dearest Sango, shall we follow their example and continue where we left off last night?

Sango: HENTAI! * Knocks Miroku out* Readers, we did nothing last night. I shudder at the thought.

(Inuyasha, Kagome, Koga, and Ayame come of out the rooms with giant bowls of popcorn)

Kagome: Hey guys, sorry if the popcorn machine was too loud.

GJay: Of course they were making popcorn, what did you think they were doing, you hentais! On with the show!

Some things are meant to be

Ch 3- Another meeting

Sesshomaru and Kagome stood there with their mouths hanging open (AN: Yes, Sesshomaru, too). Sesshomaru was the first one to recover. He examined the surroundings, but he did not sense any presence or smell any scent besides Kagome's scent of strawberries and jasmine. Sighing, he slipped his indignant mask back into place before the human could realize it was down. Turning, he studied Kagome's reaction. She still stood with her mouth hanging open, staring at the place Destiny had been standing. All of a sudden, she seemed to snap out of her trance-like state, her mouth snapping closed and her head turning towards Sesshomaru, who said the first thing he thought of, which was, “What do you think?”

Kagome stared at him with a look of shock and disbelief. Once the shock had worn off, she said, “You want to know what I think? I think that we just met the one person who could do whatever she wanted with us, she put us under a spell, and left, and WE DIDN'T SAY ONE FREAKING WORD! We just stood here like a couple of idiots who are pathetic losers. ARGH!” She slapped her hand against her head, and Sesshomaru raised one perfect brow. Kagome back and forth muttering to herself about cats and tongues and being screwed. He resisted chuckling at her agitated state. If, he could, he would have been shocked; he hadn't even felt like laughing since he was only a young child. Sighing again, he slowly began to realize that this was going to be a long two days.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~O~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~

 

Inuyasha sighed, irritated. They had searched all morning and all they had been able to find was Kagome's yellow backpack and her footprints that seemed to disappear into thin air. It was obvious that she didn't run away, but had been kidnapped- but the question was by who, and why? It just didn't make any sense.

Inuyasha sighed again and jumped off of the limb of the god tree he had been sitting on and slowly made his way back to the village. He was concerned - not that he would ever admit it, but they would know. He had spent enough time with them that they knew him well enough to discern his emotions, and him theirs. Another thing that he would not admit was that he found friends. People who would stay with him no matter how stupid or mean he was being. Who would be at his side always.

Inuyasha leaned against a tree just outside of the village. Had anyone seen him at that moment, they would not have seen an arrogant hanyou in bright red fire rat robe, eyes daring the world to tick him off. Instead, they would have seen an outcast young man, with eyes so sad you'd think he was carrying the weight of the world, and they he stood would suggest he'd lost his best friend. In truth, he felt like he had, and had let his other friends down. But in an instant, the image was gone and replaced by his normal composure, hands tucked in his sleeves feigning indifference to the world. He walked into the village and stood stark-still.

Instead of the normal hustle and bustle of normal day life, the entire village was silent to the point that an outsider would have thought it abandoned. Inuyasha sighed in realization. It seemed Kagome had touched more than her six daily companions. (A.N/ it is six right? Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kilala, Myoga…whew!). He continued towards Kaede's hut. Entering it, he gave a growl of frustration. “Damn, not you guys, too!”

Everyone was sitting silently in their own places in the hut. Kaede was mixing herbs at a small table in one corner. Sango sat against the wall to the right of the door, absentmindedly stroking Kilala, who sat in her lap. Miroku sat against the wall directly across from her, legs folded and his staffed leaned against one shoulder. What got Inuyasha the most was that he wasn't trying anything perverted. Even Shippo wasn't all over the place for once, just sitting on the table and watching Kaede. It was so… sad.

Sango sighed, and glanced at him, saying, “Well, what can you expect, Inuyasha? Our best friend just got kidnapped. Did you expect us to be cheerful?”

Then Shippo chimed in. “Yeah Inuyasha. Gosh, don't you care about Kagome at all?”

“What is that supposed to mean?!”

“You're always the one who makes her mad, and you're the one who makes her want to leave. She always runs away because of you. You're always mean to her, and yell at her, and go off with Kikyo. It's probably your fault she got kidnapped!”

“Well, Kagome's not here to protect you, so you're dead!” Inuyasha replied as he lunged for the kitsune, nearly causing the table to topple over. Shippo darted behind Miroku, who had stood up, and now placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder. “Just let it go Inuyasha,” he said with a sigh. Inuyasha turned with a huff and was about to stomp out the door when suddenly…

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~

 

Yup, that's it. Don't you just hate cliffies? *runs away from screaming fans with torches and pitchforks* Fine, fine, FINE! My goodness! I was just kidding anyways. I wouldn't make a chapter that short! GOSH!

…a girl walked through the door and right into Inuyasha. “Oof!” she said as she was forced to take a step back. Looking up at him, she glared and said, “Why do you men have to be so big?”

Inuyasha's eyebrows disappeared into his bangs, and he took a step back. Miroku stood up and, grinning pervertishly, walked over and said, “To what do we owe the honor of this pretty young woman visiting our humble abode?” He got down on one knee and, holding one of her hands in both of his, said, “Will you-“

She cut him off. “No, Houshi, I will not do you the honor of bearing your child. That,” she said, smirking, “will be done for you by your `dearest Sango' as you call her. Unless… oh, never mind. Now listen-”

“Wait, wait, WAIT!” Inuyasha glared at the 5'4” young woman with mahogany hair and light gray eyes. (A.N/ Gee, wonder who she could be!) WHO THE HELL ARE YOU? And just who do you think you are, coming in here like you own the place, huh? What do you want? Why are you here? Damn it woman, answer me!”

The girl stared at him and blinked. Then she spoke, saying, “You know, you are really cute. The whole long whitish-silvery hair and gold eyes thing is working for you. It kind of, you know, kind of makes your brother look like a girl.”

Inuyasha stared at her for a minute, and then cracked up laughing. The girl joined in, as did everyone else. Finally they calmed down, and the girl said, “Look, you might want to sit down for this.”

Everyone sat down in a circle on the floor. The girl began her speech. “My name is Destiny. I am The Destiny, the ruler of future, the decider of fate…but I won't get into all my titles or anything. The bare necessities of it are God gives me an outline, and I fill in the blanks. He tells me what he wants to happen, and I make it happen by any means. Possible.” She took a breath and a moment to study their faces. Shippo's eyes were as wide as saucers, and his mouth was in the shape of a tiny oo. Sango's hand was over her mouth, and she was staring at Destiny as if she had too heads. Both Miroku and Inuyasha's mouths hung open, and their eyes were wide. Destiny smirked and continued.

“I had to make a visit earlier, and then realized I needed to visit you guys, too. I would have come sooner, but Inuyasha took too long to get over here.

What I've come to say is that Kagome's just fine. She is with Sesshomaru, and-”

Inuyasha was furious. He cut Destiny off. “How the hell can you possibly say she's safe? I always have to save her weak sorry butt! Now I have to get her away from that ice ass? How dare he think that he could kidnap MY shard-detector! When I get my hands on that-”

“ENOUGH!” Destiny narrowed her eyes at him and through gritted teeth said, “No one, but NO ONE interrupts THE Destiny! Now, as I was saying…ugh, you made me forget what I was saying! Um… oh, right! You guys have to stop looking for her.”

Miroku gently cut in. “Excuse me, but Inuyasha had a point. Sesshoumaru isn't exactly a person you could say one is `safe' around. It doesn't seem right or logical to not search for her. I don't question what, I question why.”

Destiny looked at him with a sympathetic expression. “As you have every right to. Unfortunately, I can't tell you. If I did, it could throw off my plan, and possibly change the future. But anyways, I'm not finished. All of you must stop looking for Kagome…except Inuyasha.”

At this the hanyou's eyes widened. But before he could respond, Destiny continued. “Inuyasha, you need to leave in about an hour. You will find them sometime tomorrow evening. Now when you find them, DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BARGE INTO THEIR CAMP AND DEMAND THAT SESSHOMARU HAND OVER KAGOME! If you do, you may never get to see Kagome again. Is this clear and understood?”

Inuyasha gulped and nodded. Before anyone could say another word, Destiny disappeared.

GJay: Oh my gosh, that took so long to write! I'm so sorry, but I had a five page paper to do and 6 mid-terms to take! Besides, I type really slowly!

 

Inuyasha: Ya got that right!

 

Kagome: SIT!

 

Inuyasha: Dahmph biphitcth!

 

Kagome: What was that?

 

Inuyasha: …

 

Kagome: I thought so.

 

GJay: *rolls eyes* you two are so oblivious…

 

Kagome and Inuyasha: To what?

 

GJay:*slaps her palm against her head* oi…

 

Sango: I'm suspicious…I can't find Miroku…

 

Shippo: Do you really want to?

 

Sango: *blushes furiously* No! But, ahh, when he disappears, he's usually is doing something perverted…

 

(Miroku walks out of a steamy bathroom wearing only a towel around his waist and walks up the stars humming)

 

Inuyasha: Oh yes, taking a shower is so perverted.

 

Sango: *blushing even more furiously, her eyes the size of saucers and her hand over her mouth* …

 

GJay: Those two are just as oblivious…

 

Miroku: *coming down stairs in his clothes with the front open exposing his chest; he's towel drying his hair-Sango has gone into shock, and if she were wearing Inu's fire rat robe, you'd miss her* Who is oblivious to what?

 

GJay: *rolls eyes* Oh brother.

 

Inuyasha: I know why Sango shudders at the thought of doing something with Sango- and it ain't disgust either.

 

Sango: *sputters* Why you…

 

GJay: *sighs* Sesshy? Please?

 

Sesshomaru: *deep, sexy voice again* Please review.
