DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!
I didn’t play the kissing game with InuYasha. (Looks at sliced ropes on the floor) Stupid human-side for cutting loose and unsealing & untying my demon-side, and rescuing plushie InuYasha from me!
When I find you three! You will pay the price for escaping from me!
Here is Chapter 12!
Please Enjoy!
I can’t believe they took InuYasha.
Disclaimer: I don’t own InuYasha or anything belonging to Rumiko Takahashi.

Ch. 12
The Save and the Project
------------------------------------------------
Kagome finds herself unable to move as the ice-ball got closer.
Iya head dives towards her, pulling her down with him, the ice-ball strikes the trunk of the sacred tree as the two of them hit the ground.
“Kagome, are you alright?”, he asks, gazing down at her.
A blush enflames her cheeks, “Yeah, thanks to you”, she replies.
“Glad to hear it”, he sighs.
“Uh, Iya?”
“What is it?”
“Could you get off me?”, she asks.
His cheeks flare up, “Uh, sure”, he answers.
As Iya slowly climbs off her, a sharp pain shoots up his leg, he bites his lip to stop himself from crying out.
“What’s wrong?”, Kagome asks, noticing the pain on his face.
“It’s my ankle, something’s wrong, I can’t move it!”, he replies, grasping his left ankle.
“Let me take a look at it”, she says.
He gently removes his silvery-grey sneaker, Kagome pushes up the pant-leg of his blue jeans and when she peels off his blood-stained white sock, she uncovers a really swollen, bleeding ankle.
(A/N: I do have a pair of sneakers this color!)
“It’s badly sprained and you cut it on something”, she pulls out a white handkerchief that has reddish-brown stains out of her pocket, “We should stop the bleeding first”, she wraps his ankle, “That should do until we get you inside the house to properly dress the injury”, she says.
“Thank you, Kagome”.
“Don’t thank me just yet, we still have to get you inside”, she tells him, “Sota, Tai get over here and help me!”, she orders.
The boys help Iya to his feet and they support him all the way into the house.
----------------------------------
Inside the House…
Iya sits still as Kagome bandages his ankle.
“You sure know a lot about first aid”, Iya compliments through clenched teeth.
“I self-learned it”, Kagome replies, pausing for a moment in her bandaging of his ankle.
“Trial and error, huh?”, he asks.
“Yep!”, she says, finishing what she was doing.
Iya exams her handy-work, “Perfectly wrapped, just like a doctor does it”, he comments.
“Thanks”, she smiles.
“We should get started on our project”, Iya says.
“Ok, but I forgot what it was supposed to be about”, she admits.
“It was the Feudal Era”, he replies.
“Yeah, you’re right”, she says, ‘Stupid teacher, I should have declined that Era, but why didn’t I? Was it because I was partnered up with Iya?’, she thinks.
“Are you alright Kagome?”, Iya asks.
“Huh?”
“You got awfully quiet”, he says.
“Yeah, I’m alright”, she replies, “I was just thinking about something stupid”.
“Stupid like what?”, he asks.
“Just forget about it, it’s nothing!”
“Come on, out with it! What are you thinking?”, he persistently asks.
“Ok I’ll tell you, I was thinking about how stupid the teacher is!”, she answers.
“Do you still remember when he knocked his books off his desk?”, Iya asks, laughing.
“Then he tripped over them!”, Kagome continues, a big smile on her face.
“That was so funny!”, he laughs.
Strange, when I got into that argument with Iya, it felt like I was arguing with InuYasha. Even the words exchanged were almost the same as the ones spoken before Kikyo was brought back to life!’, she thinks.
