InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Man of Her Dreams ❯ Saved? or Lost? ( Chapter 24 )

~*~

Kouga attacked from the right as Inuyasha took the left. Only a few of their attacks had hit the Taiyoukai who was now throwing insults at them. Most were directed at the silver haired hanyou. Finally Inuyasha growled out an order to Kouga. "Go get Kagome." The wolf obeyed and left following the scent. Inuyasha watched him go, jealous of not being able to free Kagome.

Kouga sped through halls until her scent became strongest. He wrenched open a locked door and peered inside as light flooded in. Pieces of chair were strewn everywhere and in the center of the room was Kagome. The miko ran to Kouga as tears poured form her eyes. "Where is Inuyasha?"

A wave of hurt passed over the wolf, but he ignored it. "He's fighting, we need to get you out of here." He picked her up marriage style and began running toward the doorway. Kagome whispered thanks in his ear.

Kouga stopped and sat Kagome down as they came to the fighting scene. Kagome stared in horror as the hanyou through punches that never seemed to hit the one they were aimed at. "Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha didn't dare turn to look at her. Sesshomaru had begun fighting back now. "Get out of here Kagome!"

Sesshomaru chuckled, "She can not leave so easily."

Kouga growled and ran out the doors. Kagome began struggling. "Put me down Kouga, go help Inuyasha!" The wolf sat her down and obeyed. He ran back inside to find a beat up hanyou. He began throwing kicks and punches at the Taiyoukai. Inuyasha didn't look at him.

"Get Kagome out of here!" He smirked slightly as a punch hit his half brother in the jaw. Kouga rubbed his head where he had just been hit before leaping at the demon lord again.

"She wanted me to help you," he managed the gasp out as a poison claw ripped into his cheek.

Inuyasha smirked and continued fighting. He ignored the blood that was drenching his clothes. `She wanted him to help me…' he dug his claws into Sesshomaru's stomach as Kouga knocked the Taiyoukai in his head. "Its not safe…she needs to go…"

Kagome felt a strange sensation running through her. She felt herself pulsing. A blue light began clouding her vision. Her mind began to leave, to wonder away and something else replaced it. An urge. An urge to go back inside that building she had just been freed from. The miko began walking slowly into the manor. She stood just a few feet away from the three fighting men rolling around on the floor.

Kagome had no control over herself any more. Everything was on instinct. She felt her hands raise and a burning feeling shot through them. A flash of blue light engulfed her and she fell victim to a black haze. Everything was numb and unfeeling. It was all black. Even the memory of who she was, was slipping away quickly into the blackness. Soon she succumbed to the cold and dark new world.

Inuyasha's eyes squeezed shut as a light shot into the room. It was warm and soft as it seemed to press against him. The hanyou could hear in the back of his mind a howl of pain and anguish. His muscles relaxed and he had a floating sensation. Still, he could hear the agonized screaming.

After what seemed and eternity the light cleared from his senses. He glanced around. Kouga was standing beside him in a daze…Sesshomaru was laying on the floor with his eyes clouded over…and…a scent it him. Kagome's…it was faint, but he knew she was close. He spotted her on the floor.

`No kami-sama…no…' Inuyasha ran to her side. There was no smell of blood on her or the smell of death. Her face was blank, but it seemed full of peace. The idea of kissing her became overwhelming. Without thinking he pressed his lips against hers.

They were soft, softer than he remembered. He knew instantly the thought of her being dead was insane. They were warm very warm and he melted into them into her. He knew instantly what was going on. `No…I can't…'
