InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Tensai of the Ookami-Inu ❯ Good Times ( Chapter 9 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Kagome had been having the time of her life for the next month. For a while, she couldn't belive that so many good things could happen at once. She and Inuyasha had finally admitted that they liked each other and finally decided to be more than friends. Her grades were up and the Martial Arts team had a tourniment coming up in about two weeks that she was positive they were ready for. Kikyou has been keeping her distance finally which Kagome thought was a benifet to her own health. Emiko was finally coming out her her shell to Huyana, making both of them happy and almost normal. Rin and Sesshomaru were good as usual, and Kagome found out, not to her surprise, that Ayame hasn't been a virgen since the summer. She had heard that the two wolves related to rabbits but she thought it was always because they were making out. Boy was she in for a surprise...
They had been all stayed after school. Miroku, Sango, Emiko, and Kagome were with the other 20 members of the martial arts team, Inuyasha, Huyana, and Kouga had football, and Ayame and Rin had soccer. It was around 5pm when their practices had ended, and 5:30pm when they had met in the parking lot as usual to talk before they went home. Inuyasha got into his red ferrari with Emiko, Kagome walked calmly over to her black porsche that was parked innocently next to Sango's silver benz. It wasn't until Kagome turned and saw that Rin was walking over to Sesshomaru's silver ferarri that she noticed that Rin was alone. She found that odd since Ayame always came out with her.
"Oi, Rin? Where's Ayame?" Rin's heard turned with the call.
"She said she'd come out in a minuete." she answered before she pecked Sesshomaru on the lips and got into his car. Kagome's eyebrows scruched together.
"Where's Kouga?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome turned to regaurd him curiously. "Not that I care or anything-"
"Shut up," Kagome rolled her eyes. Inuyasha glowered at her but said nothing. They were all tired from practice. The coach had worked the football team extra hard because their last game of the season was coming up. "You guys go on, I'll look for her!" Kagome told the gang. Everyone started their engines and waved Kagome off, shouting their thanks. Kagome sighed when she realized that one engine hadn't started. She turned to see Inuyasha with the look in his eye that meant she was in trouble, but not the bad kind of trouble exactly. Just the kind of trouble that, in this physical exhausted state, she wouldn't be able to fend him off. Turning quickly, she headed back to the locker rooms to find the hall pitch black. She stopped and backed up to the wall and concentrated while she called her panther traits from their hiding places. Now able to see, even though in black in white, she continued into the athletes hall of the school.
"Nothing stupid Inuyasha, I'm not in the mood." she warned the hanyou.
"I can fix that," he whispered, making sure she felt his breath on her neck. She had turned around to smack him but found that he had gone. Kagome growled and used her nose to locate her friends. She followed it to the boys locker rooms where she heard labored breathing. Eyebrows furrowed, she walked slowly towards the room as she heard a muffled scream and some whimpers. Kagome picked up her pace and pulled her tiny dagger from her shoe as she rounded the corner. In the mirror stationed on the side of the lockers she saw something she really did not want to see. Her alert state of mind had dropped and the red in her face rose.
There was Kouga, stark naked with one arm around Ayame's waist and the other holding Ayames hands over her head. The only bit she could see of Ayame was her legs wrapped tightlly around Kouga's waist, and her sweaty face panting into his shoulder. Kagome backed away slowly as Ayame began to whimper and nuzzle Kougas neck as a sign of submission. She could feel her blood rising agian, and the untamable energy that filled her veins. Navigating quickly through the dark, she ended up in the varsity girls field hockey teams locker room to splash her face. It had been a while since her blood had rebelled agianst her bonds and broke free. What was the change now? She let out a desperate mewl she was suddenly so hot! She shook her head and splashed her face with freezing water- that definetly woke her up. Suddenly she turned. Something was in here with her.
"Inuyasha? Come on, I don't feel like fucking around right now." She turned agian- this time she didn't hear anything but it was upon instinct. She could swear her very shadow was alive. 'Darkness is my element, why am I scared?'. Kagome was scared when she heard growling suddenly, so, following her human instinct, she ran. She didn't even make it to the door before she was grabbed roughly from behind. She was manuvered around so quickly that she didn't even know what was happening until she was pinned underneth a dog demon with a very coaky grin on his face, and smelled of the same thing that Kouga smelled of most of the time- hormones. "YASH! I said I wasn't in the mood dammit!" she snarled.
"Aw, did I scare the pretty kitty?" he asked. Before she could rant agian Inuyasha sealed his lips with hers. Not smoothly but roughly and dominating. Kagome, who was still new to the ideas of courting, opened her mouth and let him enter her. She tried to protest but he growled, not accepting. His hand worked hers above her head and his other hand was roughly kneading her breasts. Kagome felt hotter by the second, and her blood was rising even more. Inuyasha stopped devoring her face and looked her in her eyes. "I don't want to take this to fast Kagome, but I won't say that I don't want you." Kagome's breathing was heavy, and she couldn't think straight, especially when she felt something poking her thigh.
"I-"
"AHEM!" Inuyasha shot up like a rocket with Kagome not far behind to see Ayame and Kouga leaning on the door to the locker room with knowing smiles and raised eyebrows.
"Not a word." Inuyasha growled to the both of them as they drove home.

Kagome sighed as she shut her cell phone. Inuyasha had just called her and asked her to go riding tonight. It wasn't that she didn't want to be around her boyfriend, only that she wasn't sure if she cold handle it with her blood acting up. When she had gotten home she had let her panther traits loose and stayed in the gym, leading to her now sweaty and slightly sticky state. She glanced at the clock, it was 7:15.
'If I want to be at the country by 8 I better get ready now.' she thought. She got up and opened the balcony doors where Ao had been since she got home. The moon had risen andwas almost full and beautiful. Kagome sighed and reached down to stroke Ao's fluffy ear unconsiously until she heard her dearest friend let out a whimper. Looking down quickly she found that she was captured in the she-wolfs sapphire eyes. Under the light of the moon Ao looked like an angel. The orb made a silvery glow all around her form, and her eyes gave off a heavanly sparkle that should have been filled with her normal amount of life and flare. But tonight, Ao looked lost. She had a longing look in her eye that made Kagome kneel to her height with concern.
"Daijodou koi?" she asked Ao softly. Ao merly looked back into Kagomes eyes, the amount of emotion never shifting and then looked back to the moon as if disappointed. Kagoe felt a pang of hurt. This wasn't like Ao..."You miss...the moon?" she guessed. Kagome was nearly shocked with herself. Before she had lived with Kimi she could understand Ao's every look and body posture to translate it into normal words. But now, as she looked at her sister and mother, she realized that Ao was just an animal, not a person. Tears sparked in Kagome's eyes, she had lost her sense of nature, and the edgy wild-girl she once was was now gone like the breeze. She had, in a sense, betrayed her best friend.
At the scent of salt Ao turned slowly as if to not frighten the delicate girl, and licked the tears from her face. Kagome streached her arms out and Ao gladly accepted her place in Kagome's arms. Kagome carefully hugged the she-wolf, as if afriad she'd break.
"I'm sorry girl, I'm so sorry. I've forgotten who I promised to be..." Kagome wiped her tears away and looked at the clock. It was 7:23. "I'm going riding with Inuyasha.Why don't you come with us? Let's see if he has what it takes to beat us, ne?" Ao looked up at Kagome and licked her face with a small wag. "Alright," Kagome laughed "let me take a shower first."
Kagome had spent about 15 minuetes in the shower and put on some flared jeans, an army tank, and some laced, fingerless gloves with her riding boots and summoned Ao to the garage. She was at the country side of Tokyo in about 20 minuetes, and found Inuyasha's empty car. Eyebrows furrowing, she got out of her car and let Ao out before looking around. She transformed her senses and smelt an unfamiliar scent mixed with Inuyasha, but definetly knew it was an animal. "Ao, ite." kagome said sternly when the hanyou had gone a little to far for Kagome's liking.
They were at an old house made of wood that wreaked of animals, but what Kind kagome was clueless to. Light peaked out from behind the large doors and heavy footsteps on cement could be heard inside.
"Osuwari" she commanded Ao, who complied while Kagome walked to the place but lightened her footsteps so she could hear clearly around them. She slid open the doors to see Inuyasha in jeans and chaps, combing the mane of a large animal that radiated power. He had all kinds of straps and buckles hanging off him and didn't seem to mind. Her boyfriend tuned to regaurd her.
"I've already tacked up your horse, go ahead and take a look." Horses! Ah! kagome had known what they looked like but had never smelled them before. But she was more focused on how Inuyasha looked in chaps. "Their ridiculous, I know, but I wasn't wearing breeches."
"Y-Yash, I thought you meant bikes. I thought you meant you were renting bikes for us to ride, not horses."
"Nah, I'd rather horses."
"Dude, this is so...not like you." she said, biting her lip to stop a rapidly forming smile.
"Yea..well..."
"Who knew you were a cowboy." Kagome giggled. She heard Inuyasha growl and tried to stifle her laugh. She put her hand over her mouth and shut her eyes to get control over herself. When she thought she was alright she opened her eyes to what she thought for a split second was an early sunrise, but just happened to be the eyes of a slightly embarassed Inuyasha. She gasped as he grabbed her roughly around the waist and threw her over his shoulder, which only made Kagome laugh even more. "I'm...sorry Yash! It's just that this dosn't seem...like you..." she managed to get out inbetween laughs.
"Uh huh, keep laughin' Kitty..." Inuyasha challenged and Kagome complied.
Kagome had managed to turn her laughing to giggling, but that didn't seem good enough for Inuyasha.
SMACK
Kagome's laughs stopped instantly as she became aware of the burning sensation in her ass. 'Did he just...OWWWW!'
"YASH! YOU FUCK!" Inuyasha started laughing instantly and Kagome felt herself slipping out of his grip. It was to late to try and scramble back up his body so she awaited the impact of the barns cold concret floor and twisted to land on all fours,but was puzzled when it didn't come. She opened her eyes and realized that as she had been laughing Inuyasha planned to dump her on the large bales of hay in a bay that she was now currently laying on. She turned to the laughing hanyou and smacked his foot. "Yash that hurt you ass..." she whined. She felt his large hand on her ass and turned to see a devil's smile on his face. "Don't you dare," she growled as she turned on her back.
"I wasn't," he chuckled as he offered her his hand to stand "I'm just realizing that now I have a way to shut you up. Sucking on your neck is good, but I really like the feeling of hot showers."
"Aww, little puppy got a little to hot?" she teased. Inuyasha pulled her to him and blew a breath on her neck, making her shiver, and then moved his mouth closer, making her think he was going to have a taste. She was in for a surprise when he spanked her on the ass. She let out a mewl/growl and immediatly put her hands to her stinging ass. "It's going to go flat if you keep that up."
"Kami knows that would be the end of the world." Inuyasha smiled. "Come on, I've only got the horses for a few hours." Kagome nodded.
"Yash, did I mention that I have no clue how to ride?" Inuyasha smiled at her and led her from behind his large black stallion to the slightly smaller, but powerful looking dapple mare. He untied the horse from it's stall door and handed the reins to Kagome.
"Lead her outside, we can't mount in here." Kagome nodded and did as she was told. Once outside, Inuyasha held the mares head steady as Kagome put her foot in the sturrip and swung her leg over to wind up facing the horses ass. Inuyasha began to laugh agian. "You put your right leg in the sturrip if your mounting on the right side."
"Baka, if you knew I had the wrong leg then why let me continue?" she huffed as she turned around the right way. She could have sworn that from her postition on a large rock Ao smiled at her.
"I figure you'd see it before you actually get up there." he shurgged. "Now, take the reins, and when you want to go you click your tounge and tap her with your heels. Do the same if you want her to go faster, and if you want her to go slower then you pull the reins and squeeze your your entire calf, alright?" Kagome nodded. It was when Inuyasha brought out his horse and mounted quickly that Kagome noticed the difference in their tack. Her was simple, and her saddle was smaller. Inuyasha's was bigger, and had various straps hagning. When she asked about, he shrugged and said "That style hurts my nuts. This is western, your is english." Kagome nodded and realized howhigh up they were.
When they started walking, Kagome was dazzled by the horse. She could feel all of its muscles contracting and streaching. The animal screamed of power, and Kagome was wondering just how powerful it was. Not able to resit the urge, she bucked her hips in the seat, clicked her tounge, and tapped the horse three times with her heels. The mare threw her head back and set off at a gallop, as if saying FINALLY!
"Hey!" Inuyasha yelled. Kagome laughed as she felt her hair blowing in the wind. She heard the sounds of two footsteps, one lighter than the other. Ao appeared on her left side, looking more livley than ever as she turned her ears away from the oncoming air and put her head down and full out charged ahead, keeping up with the mare with ease. Inuyasha was close to her on her right side, encouraging his horse with a few whistles and a small smack from the end of his reins. They came to a large lake and a split trail; as daring as Kagome was, she took the one that was less worn.
Sensing the urge to fly, she stood in the saddle, and took a chance to look back. Inuyasha had taken the more traveled trail, and was also standing on his horse who was thundering through the trees. Kagome watched as Ao took off ahead of the mare who was surprisingly unafraid of the wolf, and it wasn't until she felt the mare suddenly jerk upwards did she notice that there was a fallen tree. A smile broke over Kagome's face, she had just jumped a log! Her ego got a sudden boost along with her confedince and she found that all her fears and doubts were blowing away.
She noticed that Inuyasha's footsteps were getting closer, and saw that the trees that divided the two were getting thinner, and soon their paths would cross. Ao sped up, not wanting to get caught between two huge horses and crazy riders. Kagome watched as Inuyasha sped up also and did the same. They were getting closer; both horses streched their necks out and their riders were almost laying flat on them. The trees that dived them were gone and the path suddenly grew narrow and was quickly approching. At the same time they pulled up, stopping the horses abruptly. Kagome's mare whined at the sudden stop, while Inuyasha's stallion neighed at stopping at all. After calming the animals down Inuyasha and Kagome looked at eachother and laughed. He nodded to her and let her go. Kagome smiled and walked on, Inuyasha behind her.
They came to a stop a little while later when they reached a clearing with a stream cutting around on side. The moon shone brightly and Ao could be seen sniffing around the clearing, staying clear of the horses who huddled together. They sat on the lush grass of the forest floor in silence.
"Where did you learn to ride like that?" Kagome asked, breaking the silence. Inuyasha looked down at the top of Kagome's head and then back up at the night sky.
"My mother used to take me riding a lot when I was younger." he said softly.
"Oh..." Kagome wanted to ask, but she thought it would be rude. Inuyasha never talked about his parents. Inuyasha looked down at Kagome's head and then sighed. As if reading her thought, he said,
"She died a long time ago, along with my dad."
"Inu...I'm sorry."
"It's alright."
"...what happened?" she asked delicatly.
"My mom got sick when I was little...and she never got better. My dad was killed by a stray bullet, or so they say. It was the only shot fired, so I think he was murdered. My aunt was killed the same night, Emiko's mom. Gas leak, as they say. My uncle, Emiko's dad, was never found though. They say he was burned in the fire but I doubt it. He always wore a belt made of fur from the fire rat, so it wouldn't burn. The belt was never found."
"You think he's still alive?"
"No. The theory of the belt was kind of a long shot. We were really young when it happened. And if he wasn't dead, he would ave come back to raise us instead of leaving it to Totosai and Myoga...well, thats what Emiko always told us. We never questioned it though. We may have been little but Uncle Musha loved Emiko with everything he had and more. The only thing that could keep him from her would be death." Kagome nodded. There was silence agian until Inuyasha spoke. "What about yours?"
"Huh?" she asked dumbly.
"You parents. You live with your aunt, don't you?"
"Oh, yea. Well...umm...I don't really remeber. My parents were in the force."
"Navy? Police? CIA?"
"FBI. We were on vacation and they died in a snowmobile accident when I was 6. They had flipped over and their bodys were burnt up. Then the cabin that we stayed in exploded for some reason, I don't know why."
"How's you survive that?"
"I don't really remeber, I never talked about it."
"You never talk about anything. How long have you been with your aunt?"
"Since I was 12."
"So you were in foster care for 6 years?"
"What?" she asked him, sitting up from his chest to look into his face.
"Your parents died when you were 6, and you went to your aunts at 12. That leaves 6 years of you being where?" Kagome didn't know what to say. Should she tell him she lived as a crazy girl in the forest with a hybrid for 6 years? "Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. She had been staring at him dumbly.
"I...lived..." she started, still uncertian. Inuyasha sighed.
"Shh, it's alright. You don't have to tell me now." Kagome smiled at him and kissed him heatedly.
"Thank you." she said queitly, and placed a tiny kiss on his lips. Suddenly something began to shake on Kagome's side. Looking down in panic she saw that it was only her cell phone. Cursing herself silently as she heard Inuyasha's silent chuckles, she saw it was Kimi. She put up her antenna and stood from her position much to Inuyasha's dismay.
"Hello?"
"Kagome, I want you back here in an hour. Report to my office immediatly when you do."
CLICK
Kagome looked to her phone in puzzlement, was something wrong?
"Kagome?"
"Come on, we have to go." she didn't even look at Inuyasha when she said this, only went back to her gray mare, whistled to Ao, and grabbed the reins of Inuyasha's stallion. Inuyasha mounted silently, and pulled off to the trail at a fast trot. Kagome didn't bother to say anything, she knew he was upset because she kept secrets. She sighed, it was the curse of the panther.

Kagome managed to untack her horse by watching Inuyasha and using common sense at the same time. She then brushed it off, clean off its hooves, and winged it to where its stall was. She gave Inuyasha a chasate kiss on the cheek and told him she'd call him later on, and pulled off with Ao in the passenger seat.
About 45 minuets later Kagome was home. She went immdeatly to Kimi's office where she was waiting impatiently with many more woman who were quiet. She gave a short bow before sitting in an emptychair that was conveintly closet to Kimi. The woman herself slammed down an open file full of pictures in front of Kagome and looked at her expectantly. With furrowed brows Kagome looked at the pictures. They were pictures of woman, all naked and sprawled out for everyone to veiw, and all of them blooded almost beyond recodnition. As Kagome's now golden eyes scanned the photos which were blown up to display every grueling detail, her mouth opened slightly in shock. Looking at the wounds it seemed that they had been tourtured or beaten before they were killed. One had bullet holes in her head, another had a bloody ring around her neck, another had a hole drilling clean from jugular to jugular, bleeding her to death. As Kagome flipped through more she realized that most had bleeding breasts, whip marks along with bite marks all over their bodies, and dried fludis on their thighs, abdomans, and backs mixed with blood.
"They were raped, beaten, tourtured, and then killed," Kagome said to herself "whoever did it was toying with these people who sent them."
"Exactly," Kimi snapped, making Kagome flinch. She didn't have to see her face to know her aunt was not concealing her anger anymore. "Kagome," she barked "these woman are from our company. Twenty woman, all of our best, were sent for this job. These women you see around you are all the people we have left in this company that are well trained enough to take on this sort of job." Kagome looked around the large room. There were about 10 women in chairs, two more standing near the wall looking grim. "That is to low for this company, and this job must be done. You, Kagome, are in charge of this assignment."
Shocked, Kagome turned to decline her new position. But when she had gotten a full view look of her aunt's deadly calm face, and her panther traits flashing with each exhale, she swallowed the lump in her throat and nodded dumbly. "You are dismissed." The woman began to file out, and as Kagome stood Kimi reached out to her arm. "Not you." she said shortly. Kagome sat back down and waited until a brunette with an ugly scar across her cleavlage shut the door behind her. She turned back to her aunt who had her eyes closed and was taking deep breaths. She waited patienly but anxiously, and tried not to jump when she saw her aunts peircing golden eyes, and tired to remeber to breathe when she heard her calm voice.
"I sent these woman out to kill one man, Gaunchi Haung. He is a competing agency of the continent and is looking to expand his territory. He is a ruthless man, and will stop at nothing to gain power. As you have probably figured out, his agency is made up of men, who are trained almost the same as our woman. They arn't exactly as stealthy but definetly powerful. He is the one, Kagome, who is responsible for the death of your parents and brother Kagome..." Kagome froze when she heard the words...she couldn't process anything but yet everything was racing through her mind. This man...was the reason...for everything...
Kagome's voice was calm; her face impassive and her aura edgy. "When do I hit?" Kimi acted as if she didn't notice the changes in her neice.
"Your team will hit in three nights. He is hosting a party for the start of his new "Police Acadamy", and we recived an invite as his fellow 'enforcers of law'. I will be attending, as will you. I am waiting on Suki for his movements during the party. No doubt hes already made them but he is under to much of a heavy protection right now. I found that upstairs there is a 'private party', where he is hiring exotic dancers from all over the place. Fortunetly, he has called one of our shops from the continent and has hired two of our own and one civilian. He was also so kind as to hire bands, in which I have violinests who can report to us." Kimi stopped. Kagome did not look at her though, she wasn't looking at anything. She only stared into a place only she could see.
Kagome saw flashing lights and body bags. She saw small fires and numorus people in black bodysuits. She saw a womans face, her eyes dark with the lust for blood and rage as a scar bled across her face from her left cheek to her right temple, just missing her eyes. Red clouded her vision and she felt a flow of power...one she couldn't take. All she knew is that she has to get that face...she had to destroy its mocking gaze and feel the bones of it's skull crushing, and then everything went black.
Kimi had been talking and then stopped. She realized when Kagome was thinking had turned into a full out daydream, and found it pointless to try and wake her. She herself was tired and didn't really feel like talking much. Gathering the photos, Kimi didn't realize the shift until it was almost to late. Her head snapping up, she found Kagome standing and her crimson, glazed over eyes locked onto her. Fangs about an inch long protruded from her mouth and her claws were double that size. A thick and long black tail thrashed behind her and a thunderous growl was spilling from her chest. Kagome was as demon as she was going to get in a human form...
Acting quickly, Kimi jumped over her neices head in one swift motion and pinched a nerve on the back of her neck just as she began to move. Kagome calapsed to the floor in a heap at her aunts feet. She watched as her tail, fangs, and claws shurnk. She took a moment to calm herself and looked at the teen on the floor with a impassive face. Inside, she was angry that Kagome had lost control so easily. But then thinking about how little she knew, she let it slide. Kagome would need training over the next few days for her new job. With that thought in mind, Kimi scooped the girl from the floor and carried her to her room. She ignored Ao's questioning gaze and shut Kagome's door, glanicng at the blue sun for only a second with thoughts of the future in her mind...
