InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Some things are meant to be ❯ Sesshomaru's Curse: Koga ( Chapter 6 )

Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha, wouldn't there be better things to do with my time?

 

(Update note at the end)

 

GJay: Guys, I hat to tell you this, but this chapter may be shorter than the others. (Angry and disappointed sounds come from the readers.) I know, I know. Originally I planned this chapter to be part of the last chapter, but thanks to my mini writer's block, I manager to screw up the chapter in a way that I couldn't tactfully add this part. I hope you enjoy it anyways.

 

Shippo: Have you seen my mama?

 

GJay: Um…

 

Sesshomaru: She locked her in the closet with Inuyasha. Stupid human…

 

GJay: One more revealing my schemes or saying a comment like that, you're out of here!

 

Sesshomaru: Promise?

 

GJay: Psyche!

 

Sango: GJay, have you seen Miroku?

 

Shippo: You're looking for him again? Do you want him to grope you that bad?

 

Sango: 8blushing hard8 Shippo!

 

GJay: Miroku went out.

 

Sango: Out as in…a date? 8goes pale8

 

GJay: Out as in…to feed my dog. He was bored, so I gave him something to do.

 

Sango: Oh…

 

(Suddenly there is a loud shout and the sound of something slamming to the ground.)

 

GJay: 8goes pale8 Um… that wasn't supposed to happen!

 

Sesshomaru: They can barely hold their emotion in.

 

GJay: Shut up Fluffy! (Runs over to closet and unlocks it, revealing an angry Kagome.) I think its time to get on with the story…

 

Sesshomaru: Indeed.

 

GJay: Before I start, I would like to plead forgiveness from my readers.

Inuyasha: (coming out of the closet) What readers?

 

GJay: I am so, so sorry I took so long. To tell you the truth, I really wasn't into this chapter. It took me forever to make myself write it, and when I finally did, since I didn't like it, I rewrote it seven times. Yeah. Finally, after the sixth time I deleted it, I finally managed to write an okay chapter. I didn't post it because something felt… off. I finally (after a month… literally!) figured out that I had Sesshomaru way out of character. So I fixed it and now, what you see is what you get.

 

Some Things are Meant to be

 

Ch 5- Sesshomaru's Curse: Koga

 

Plink! Click, click, clack! `Darn, missed again!' Kagome thought restlessly. For the past hour and a half there had been nothing but absolute silence. After many failed attempts at conversation, Kagome finally settled for staring at the ground and contemplating how her life sucked. As she walked, she went on staring at the ground. This is how she saw the pebble.

 

The first time she kicked it had been an accident. It had landed right behind Sesshomaru's left foot, but he paid no attention. After that Kagome began to kick the rock a few steps, catch up with it, and then kick it again. Bored? Oh yeah. After a while, she realized she was even more bored than before. Eventually an evil idea entered her mind. She began to kick the pebble a little harder, trying to hit Sesshomaru's foot. Her aim was off every time.

 

At one point, while walking toward the pebble, she failed to notice that Sesshomaru had stopped. And of course, she did the only sensible thing one can do when they're not paying attention to the person walking in front of them, and they stop: she walked right into him, and fell on her butt.

 

“Oof!” She reached down to rub her sore bottom as she slowly looked up at Sesshomaru, who was staring at her in what one could only call amusement. Kagome picked herself with as much dignity as she could muster and brushed the dirt off herself. Too embarrassed to look at him, she mumbled, “Why'd ya stop?”

 

(AN/ hi. I'm taking a moment to say that this is a filler chapter. If you read the note at the beginning, you know it took me a while to write this chap. Well, I'm dealing with a major case of writer's block. The name of this chap is what it was going to originally be called, but it just wasn't working. So I'm sorry. The next chap is going to be a real chap though, so it may take me a while to write. I'm sorry.)

 

Sesshomaru snorted. “A wolf demon is rapidly approaching. You must be an extremely weak miko if you cannot sense such a trivial thing.” He smirked. Kagome's jaw dropped. `Did he just…?' She gave a very admirable impression of a growl when she realized that he did indeed insult her. “Why you…” she began, only to be cut off as a miniature tornado cut through the path and stopped in front of her.

 

“Ko… Koga?”

 

“Did you miss me?” He asked with a (excuse the pun) wolfish grin. Kagome just stared at him. When he saw that she wasn't going to answer him, he turned to look at Sesshomaru, who was watching the scene with disinterest. With a start he exclaimed, “Ice-butt? What are you doing with him? Where's the other dog-breath?” At that Sesshomaru growled. “Wolf, if you wish to live, leave. Now.”

 

“What? She's my woman! And no dog is going to change that!” Koga proclaimed, abruptly sweeping Kagome into his arms. She gave a sharp “eek!” and he looked at her. “I've let you stay away far too long Kagome.” He said. “But no more! I know you want to de my woman, so now you're coming with me!”

 

Kagome's eyes got wide. `Is he serious?!' she panicked. “But… I don't want to be with you!” she cried out, alarmed. Koga looked as if he'd been slapped and nearly dropped her. Shock soon gave way to hurt, and then anger. “What are you saying? Would you rather be with dog-breath?” He scoffed. She looked at him with sad eyes. “I'm sorry Koga, but I just can't…I just don't… I mean… I'm sorry.” Koga gently set her down on her feet and backed away a few steps. He had looked so sad in that moment, Kagome nearly started crying herself. But then Koga smirked, and she mentally sighed. This obviously wasn't over. “Don't worry Kagome! I know you want to be with me, you just haven't realized it yet! Well, until then, I suppose I had better go find Ayame. After all, I did sort of promise…” and with one sheepish look, he was gone.

 

Kagome stared in the direction in which he disappeared for a long time. Then she shook her head and looked over at Sesshomaru with an incredulous look on her face. Sesshomaru was obviously irritated. “That ookami is more trouble than he's worth.” He stated. Kagome nodded, for once in complete agreement with the unemotional Tai-youkai. They stayed a moment more before continuing to walk. It wouldn't be until much later that day that Kagome would wonder why exactly she didn't sense Koga at all…

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~O~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

GJay: Well… I told you it was short.

 

Inuyasha: Understatement of the year

 

GJay: Shut up!

 

Miroku: Well kind of short.

 

GJay: 8exasperated sigh8 The next one is longer, I swear! But to make it up to you, I'm going to show you a few snips of what was going to be in this chapter…

 

Snippet 1: Kagome had a sudden thought. “Um… Sesshomaru?” No response. “Why don't we just fly to where we are going?” Sesshomaru glanced back at her, glaring. “This Sesshomaru finds he is unable to perform such a task without the use of proper appendages.” Kagome blinked. `What? He can't fly? Oh, right. He probably can't carry me with his one arm and concentrate on flying at the same time.' She mentally kicked herself. How could she be so insensitive?

 

GJay: Yeah. At first, this is how I wanted to base this chapter but, it just didn't seem right. After all, I personally think he could have done both easily.

 

Sesshomaru: Indeed.

 

GJay: Anyways, here's another…

 

Snippet 2: Kagome stared at him. “You mean, your `powers' aren't working?”

He coldly replied, “No.”

 

Snippet 3: Inuyasha sniffed the ground, trying to catch her scent. When he realized it was useless, he growled and punch down a tree before stomping away. He would find her - he just had to. What would he do without her? She was his sun, his reason for getting up in the morning. She had given him everything, and in return, he had given her crap. But she always came back.

 

GJay: Actually, that last one was just moved to the next chapter. Hope you don't have to wait so long again! Ja ne!

 

(Update note: I totally screwed up the part with Koga. It sounded like the end with him, and it is not at all.)

You say I lose your approval if I'm not cool like you

Well here's a newsflash for you - I've got nothing to lose
