Lizziful: I'm starting to think that people are losing interest in my story, I'm glad you have stuck around (starts moping around and not writing because NOBODY REVIEWS)
 
Kawii inu'no 45: Too bad…I was kinda looking forward to reading it. I'm glad that you have been so patient and loyal since ch 1. (Kawii hasn't missed a review yet, go check out Kawii's stories if you haven't yet.)
 
Thanks to everyone who ever reviewed or read any part of my book-thingy thus far. A special thanks to Kawii and Liz for their continued loyalty and patience.
Just so everyone knows this might be my last review for a few weeks starting Thursday. I'm going on vacation and my dad wont let me take my laptop. Maybe a 2-week plus wait for the next chapter. Sorry.
 
Chapter 12:
 
Refresher-. Hojo turned his attention to Inuyasha, as if noticing him for the first time, Hojo slid in between Kagome and Inuyasha, “And you must be her boyfriend…”
 
~~~
 
Inuyasha gave Hojo the `back-off' expression that he usually reserved for Koga or Miroku, and he started to work his way back toward Kagome, gripping her hand tightly, but not so as to hurt her. Inuyasha was loosing ground until Eri came to his rescue, backing up Hojo and the others that had wedged themselves in between Kagome and Inuyasha. After Eri's intervention Inuyasha was riveted to Kagome's side.
 
Inuyasha was careful not to growl at the crowd around him, scowling at them instead. Hojo made several attempts to talk to Kagome again but found Eri or Inuyasha in the way.
 
At the warning bell most of the students hurried off to class in a panicked rush. Inuyasha was still reeling from the crowd and the bell, his senses numbed and ineffective. Inuyasha found himself being dragged inside behind Kagome, Eri pushing him along from behind. “I can walk, its not like I have a hole in my chest right now,” Inuyasha said grimily.
 
“Is that so?” Eri said sarcastically, gesturing to the skid marks leading up to them.
 
“Um…” Inuyasha was at a loss of even his trademark `Feh.'
 
“Listen Kagome,” Eri was talking again, “I'll see you in class. Bye!”
 
Kagome watched her friends retreating back and sighed, resuming her dragging Inuyasha to the office so he could get his prearranged visitors pass and excuse her looming tardy to class.
 
Inuyasha managed to move his feet this time, making Kagome's job easier while she pulled him down the medical white, nearly empty hallways. Inuyasha was some what disturbed by the blankness of the schools interior. It's a good thing Kagome is going to show me around this place, I'd never make it out of here on my own.
 
Kagome stopped in front of a door, just like all the others apart from the sign tacked on to the top, reading `Office.' Kagome opened the door and stepped in, Inuyasha following closely behind, his ears pinned to his head, buried in his hair.
 
“Mrs. Tylaja? (Ty-la-ha)” asked Kagome timidly, “Umm, I need to pick up a visitor's pass for Inuyasha.” Kagome squeezed Inuyasha's hand, pulling him a little closer almost as if to protect him from the secretary. This did not go unnoticed by Inuyasha, who felt that it would be better for Kagome to handle things like this here in her era.
 
The woman turned around, “Name of student checking in guest,” the secretary said indifferently, “Last name first.”
 
“Higaroshi, Kagome.” Kagome fidgeted uncomfortably. Inuyasha removed his hand from hers and wrapped it around her waist. Inuyasha could smell Kagome's fear mingled with the scent of her hair.
 
“So your Kagome…” the secretary's interest perked, “I heard a roomer not to long ago long about that your boyfriend and yourself had been so busy at night that you couldn't come to school.”
 
Kagome flushed bright red instantly, “No n-nothing like that.” Kagome stuttered, Inuyasha lost as to the meaning of this, wondering how sleeping could make you too sore to move.
 
“Ah, some days I actually miss the buzz of high school, here you go. Oh and by the way,” the secretary handed Kagome the visitor's pass, “This wouldn't be him would it?”
 
Kagome blushed even more, “Um…”
 
“Well if he is then I can see why you skipped so much school,” The secretary produced an excusal note and resumed whatever it was she was doing when Kagome and Inuyasha entered.
 
Inuyasha and Kagome walked out into the hall just in time for the bell. The metal bell casing above the office door banging against its retaining bolt as the metal hammer inside rocketed around creating a shrill, loud brrring. Kagome covered her ears and was greatful that she was able to do so, poor Inuyasha; he's going to be deaf by the end of school today. Inuyasha just stood there with his jaw clenched in pain.
 
Inuyasha could feel his ears ringing, if it weren't for his demon blood his ears would be bleeding, or at least it felt like it. Inuyasha looked at Kagome who was uncovering her ears, “Does it do that often?” he asked, fearing the answer would be yes.
 
“Yeah, six or seven times a day,” Kagome answered, catching the look of dismay on Inuyasha's face, “but don't worry, we'll be outside away from the bells for the most part. Inuyasha breathed a sigh of relief at these words.
 
“Hey Kagome, What does `boyfriend' mean?” Inuyasha asked innocently.
 
Kagome blushed and replied,” Well…boyfriends and girlfriends are like…umm…they like each other a lot. They…are…uh…very close.”
 
“You mean like courting?” Inuyasha asked, trying to help.
 
Kagome blushed even more, “Yeah… I guess so.”
 
Inuyasha fell in next to Kagome as she walked along to class. After a minute or so Inuyasha asked Kagome a question, “Do you know being `Mated' means?”
 
“In demon terms, no.” Kagome said, not looking at Inuyasha.
 
“I better explain,” Inuyasha closed his eyes for a second, “It is like marriage for humans, only permanent, at least for dog, cat, fox, coyote and wolf demons.”
 
“Oh,” Kagome looked at Inuyasha for a moment, “and what makes it different.”
 
“Well the male and female mark each other,” Inuyasha looked at Kagome before he continued, “with each others scent and a bite mark.”
 
“A What?” Kagome stopped and looked at Inuyasha.
 
“A bite mark,” Inuyasha looked at Kagome before he continued, “it serves as a kind of telepathic link between mates so that they can find communicate with each other without speaking and as a marker to say to other demons `hands off.'” Inuyasha finished, and silence fell over the couple.
 
Inuyasha followed Kagome the rest of the way to her first class, math. Outside the door Kagome clipped the visitors pass onto the his shirt, after a bit of persuasion.
 
“No, I'm not wearing it,” Inuyasha, evaded the visitors pass again.
 
“Yes you are, or else,” Kagome said exasperatedly.
 
“Or else what?” Inuyasha side stepped around Kagome, coming up behind her.
 
“Just put it on,” Kagome felt like she was going to get nowhere.
 
“I said that I'm not wearing it wench,” Inuyasha stepped out of reach this time.
 
“Just put it on, you only have to wear it for a few hours,” Kagome lunged again, missing Inuyasha.
 
“What if I don't want to wear it?” Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's hand, rendering her unable to pin the visitor's pass on him.
 
“Listen dog-boy, just put it on,” Kagome could feel the temper getting the better of her.
 
“I'm not wearing it, Wench,” Inuyasha was getting angry to.
 
“You had better wear it,” Kagome mastered herself and stepped away, holding the pass out in her palm, “Unless you want to get kicked off the school grounds and not allowed near me.”
 
“Feh!” Inuyasha grabbed the pass and started trying to figure out hoe to get it on.
 
“here,” Kagome grabbed the pass from him and quickly clipped it to his shirt.
 
“Hey! I didn't want it there.” (a/n: you perverted S.O.B. he didn't mean it like that)
 
“Tough,” Kagome opened the door and stepped inside, and Inuyasha followed, not wanting to let Kagome out of his sight after the `Hojo Incident.'
 
Kagome walked up to the teacher, handing him the note the office had given her. Inuyasha stood, leaning against the wall studying the class for any familiar faces and Hojo. He saw Eri and Ayumi conversing quietly in the back, and Yuka was sitting off by herself. I guess that this whole school thing isn't as bad as I thought it was.
 
Kagome started tapping her fingers against her leg as her teacher read the note the office wrote. After a long minute he nodded and spoke, “very well, Miss Higaroshi. I'm afraid that I don't have any spare seats in here so you and your guest will have to share yours.”
 
Kagome blushed and a few of her classmates chuckled quietly to themselves only to be silenced by a very cold look from Inuyasha, who appeared to be daring them to laugh.
 
Kagome walked away from the teachers desk, still red and put her stuff down at her desk before she joined her friends, Inuyasha followed a few seconds behind joining Kagome at a window with her friends, who were already deep in conversation, he settled for looking out the window at the grounds. How much this place was like a fortress astounded him, from this window he could see almost every thing. This isn't a fortress, it's a prison. He thought to himself watching a group of men setting up a number of tents and other things for the end of school festivities.
 
Inuyasha continued to watch the outside world, not really paying attention to anything until Kagome called him over.
 
“Hey Inuyasha, could you come over here for a second?” Kagome called.
 
“Feh,” Inuyasha replied turning around to listen.
 
“Come over here.” Kagome said with a look that said `right-now-before-I-decide-to-sit-you-to-hell.'
 
Inuyasha “feh”`d and decided that staying put wasn't worth getting sat.
 
Inuyasha joined the group. And discovered that Eri was inviting them to dinner after school that evening. He gave a do-I-have-too look before he said, “Your call.”
 
“Sure thing Eri!” Kagome hugged her friend before she started talking about how much fun it would be.
 
Inuyasha groaned and resumed his staring out the window at nothing in particular.
 
The next two hours passed almost exactly the same, Inuyasha would get dragged around for a few minutes and then stare off into space while Kagome enjoyed her self, he counted three different classes so far, and it was the beginning of the fourth. Inuyasha and Kagome walked into the room hand in hand. Inuyasha had changed his views at some point during the day that it was him that needed protection from everyone, rather than her.
 
The teacher called roll just like every time and Informed Inuyasha that there wasn't a seat for him so he would have to share, which hadn't happened yet, in fact they hadn't had to even sit in their seats all day. This class was a hair different, because they were asked to take their seats. Inuyasha sat down at the desk with Kagome's dwindling amount of belongings. He slouched a bit, making himself comfortable. Kagome was not happy about this for some reason Inuyasha couldn't think of.
 
Kagome hissed at him, demanding that he “get out” of her seat.
 
The teacher waited patiently for the couple to resolve their fight over the chair.
 
“Feh, I'm not moving.” Inuyasha said in a calm tone.
 
“what happened to being gentlemanly?” Kagome spat at him, stomping her foot.
 
“What's that? Besides I thought that we were supposed to share,” Inuyasha made a point of not leaving any room, causing a few snickers around the room.
 
“Well how are we going to share if there's no room for me to sit?” Kagome was starting to loose her temper.
 
Inuyasha looked at her calmly. Maybe I should just end it before I get sat. “Like this…”
 
In a single, fluid motion Inuyasha spun Kagome around and deposited her in his lap and wrapping his arms around her waist. Inuyasha rested his chin on her shoulder, looking quite innocent.
 
More than just a few people laughed at Inuyasha's flirtatious antics and everyone was grinning broadly, even the teacher.
 
“Well! Now that that's out of out system…” the teacher said, “Year books just got in and are being delivered this class.” The students began to mumble to each other excitedly until the teacher cut them off, “And I would advise all of you to find a safe place for your stuff, if you brought anything. There will be a box in the back off the room for anything that is still in good shape and you don't want.”
 
The teacher sat down and opened a novel. The class began to mumble and then talk to each other. Kagome spun around on Inuyasha's lap, glowering at him.
 
“So what's the deal?” Kagome plucked at Inuyasha's arms.
 
“Feh, not like it matters wench,” Inuyasha didn't move his arms and looked away.
 
“Hey! I was talking to you!” Kagome leaned around to try and get a look at Inuyasha's face, using his arms as anchors to keep her from falling off.
 
Inuyasha turned his head further away, “What do you want?”
 
“I'm trying to look at you.”
 
“Why would you want to do that?” Inuyasha turned his head to look at Kagome, finding her face only a few centimeters apart.
 
Inuyasha felt his face get a little warm which was nothing compared to the deep red that Kagome turned.
 
“Hey!” Kagome said, trying to hide her embarrassment, “You were trying to trick me into kissing you weren't you?”
 
“Feh.” Inuyasha habitually crossed his leg and accidentally threw Kagome's lips into his own. Kagome clamped onto his lips and he responded, running the length of Kagome's lips with his tongue, asking for admission. Kagome denied it and shoved his tongue back into his mouth, forcing her way in and roving over the inside of her mouth with her tongue, exploring the peaks of his fangs, pricking her self on one of them.
 
“Ow!” Kagome quickly broke the kiss, sucking on her tongue.
 
“What?”
 
Several of the guys smirked at them, and all the girls giggled or blushed. The teacher just looked over at the couple, “I won't tell if you don't.”
 
“What?” Inuyasha repeated, leaning toward Kagome.
 
“hmm…” Kagome didn't actually say anything, but stuck out her tongue so he could see. The rest of the class didn't notice since it was apparent that nothing would happen of interest between the two.
 
“I cut my tongue.” Kagome looked at Inuyasha resentfully, “on your tooth.”
 
“Inuyasha leaned over eve further and whispered in her ear, “Stupid wench,” Inuyasha nipped at her ear lobe, “Those are sharp.”
 
Kagome suppressed a moan and turned around again, still sitting on Inuyasha.
 
“What?” Inuyasha asked her back.
 
Kagome sighed and leaned back against Inuyasha, pulling his arms around him like a blanket, “nothing.”
 
Kagome soon fell to napping on top of Inuyasha, who was being lulled to sleep as well by her slow even breathing. Kagome snuggled in closer to Inuyasha in her sleep and Inuyasha nuzzled her neck.
 
Inuyasha was about to close his eyes when the year books arrived, Hojo pushing them along and a girl following closely behind.
 
Hojo looked around the class room, searching for Kagome, finding her curled up in Inuyasha's lap with Inuyasha nuzzling her neck. Both of them looked quite happy and content with the current set up. Internally Hojo was shaking with rage, he had not given Kagome all that stuff just to be put aside for some renegade with long silver hair. Hojo smiled happily around the class and began to read the list of names of those who would be receiving a year book. With each name he called the corresponding student went up to the cart. Hojo was startled when he found Kagome's name on the list. He called her name but she remained asleep. He walked over to where she was sleeping on Inuyasha's lap and put the book down on the desk. Hojo smiled happily at them, before returning to the front of the class and reading out the remaining names.
 
Then it was the girls turn. She pulled out a box and began to pass out a bunch of pieces of paper. “These,” she explained, “are your tickets for the festival that was set p out side this morning. You can buy more tickets if you want to after lunch through closing at six. There is a donation box at the entrance to the grounds, street side. You can sell or donate your tickets there. Donated tickets will be split, half given away to those who ask for them, and half are given away at 2:30 in a raffle drawing. There is a limit to the number of donated tickets that you can receive. Each ticket is worth one ride or one dollar cashed.” The girl went back up to the cart, put back the old box and grabbed a new one, “and these are coupon books valid through the start of school next year. They are for several of the nicer restaurants, casual pizza joints, and other places in this district of Tokyo. You may redeem them for a lesser amount of cash at the front office after three.”
 
The girl put the box back on the cart and walked out the door, holding it open for Hojo. Inuyasha heard them kiss out in the hall. What a creep, I'm glad I came today…
 
Kagome stirred on his lap, dragging him effortlessly out of his thoughts. Kagome groggily opened her eyes asking, “What'd I miss?”
 
“Oh only your year book, coupon book, and festival tickets!” said Eri happily, “come on over here by the door, quick before every one else decides to stand over here.”
 
Kagome stood up and dragged Inuyasha with her to the door to join her friends, much to Inuyasha's dismay. He had been quite happy to just sit there with Kagome in his arms.
 
Inuyasha joined Kagome and her friends by the door, he held her hand loosely in his own as though it happened on a regular basis, which it didn't.
 
Not that I really mind or anything. Kagome thought to her self, entwining her finger's with Inuyasha's.
 
Kagome chattered away with her friends until the bell rang, rudely tearing the half demon from his fantasies of not being here in this cursed building.
 
Kagome and Inuyasha piled out of the class room, holding hands very tightly so that they wouldn't loose each other in the swarming throngs of people in the hallway.
 
After a minute or two of weaving their way around inside the building Inuyasha and Kagome arrived outside the building into the already crowded festival. Kagome pulled Inuyasha off to one side, almost dropping her yearbook, tickets, and coupons.
 
“So,” Kagome said, “What do you want to do first?”
 
“Anything anywhere but here.” Inuyasha looked around at the crowd, “There are too many people here and I don't like it.” Inuyasha tightened his grip in Kagome's hand when Hojo came out of the building. Inuyasha kept a close eye on Hojo until he disappeared.
 
Kagome watched Inuyasha and felt the increase of pressure on her hand when Hojo was around, Well…I suppose I could humor Inuyasha this time, Hojo had been a bit more over-friendly than usual.
“Alright, come on lets go cash in these tickets.”
 
Kagome dragged Inuyasha through the crowd again, but this time to the admissions booth by the gate. The woman sitting behind the counter was in her fifty's and smelled of tobacco and alcohol.
 
“Um…excuse me?” Kagome said timidly, trying to get the woman's attention with out making her grumpy.
 
“What do ye want?” the old woman asked in a rasping, coarse voice.
 
“We need to cash these,” Kagome pulled out the tickets quickly counting them in her head. Five by six…thirty.
 
“Alright,” the old woman pulled the tickets from Kagome's hands and pushed a stack of bills over to her.
 
“Thank you,” Kagome said, counting it out. Kagome walked out the gate, putting the bills in her purse. Inuyasha caught a glimpse of Hojo back in the crowd before he joined Kagome on the street.
 
Inuyasha walked next to Kagome for a while, his hands in his pockets. After a minute or so he asked, “So what do you want to do until we head over to your friend's house for dinner?”
 
Kagome put a finger on her chin, thinking. Inuyasha kept walking, finding it necessary to wrap an arm around her waist to steer Kagome around a number of polls and mail boxes.
 
“What do you think your doing, Wench!” Inuyasha yelled after, pulling her out of the way of another mailbox, “You trying to walk into every thing on the path.”
 
Kagome giggled and looked at Inuyasha, “No, I knew that if I was going to walk into some thing that you'd move me, or it.”
 
Inuyasha looked more than a little bit grouchy at this, “Feh!”
 
“Oh come on Inuyasha,” Kagome said cheerily, “Don't you like me?” Kagome poked out he lip and gave him a set of very good `puppy eyes' just to get him to get his nose out of the air.
 
Inuyasha looked at her with one eye before he closed it again, “Feh!”
 
Kagome noticed that they had slowed to a stop. Turning around, Kagome crossed her arms and started to make sniffling noises. Kagome even worked her self up enough to make her eyes tear up.
 
Inuyasha heard Kagome sniffling and the sent of saline hit his nose, Did I really upset her that much? Inuyasha stepped over to her and pulled her around into a tight embrace. This just made Kagome cry all the harder, just because she felt like it.
 
Mentally Kagome scolded herself for this but it felt good to get a hug out of Inuyasha. Inuyasha didn't say a word but just held her, his actions speaking libraries about his feelings for her.
 
Kagome eventually stopped herself and pulled away, “Thanks Inuyasha.”
 
“Feh…” Kagome heard the soft ness is his somewhat harsh reply, and so Kagome wrapped an arm around him and started to walk, just as he followed suite.
 
“so where are we headed?” Inuyasha asked, not hearing the figure following them.
 
“We'll go to the movies…” Kagome pulled Inuyasha a little closer.
 
“And what are `movies'?” Inuyasha asked, looking down at her.
 
“well…they are really big moving pictures with sound.” Kagome couldn't really think how to explain this to him so she decided on the next best thing, “Come on I'll show you.” And with that Kagome pulled away and sprinted off toward the movie complex, Inuyasha keeping pace.
 
“So,” Inuyasha asked when Kagome finally arrived at the complex, out of breath, “Did that Hojo guy ever take you to one of these places?” Inuyasha eyed the crowd, many of which were couples around his and Kagome's age, at least in appearance.
 
Kagome regained her composure and led Inuyasha to the back of the line to discuss which movie to watch. It wasn't much good though, seeing as Inuyasha just stared around looking at the huge interior, the many colors, and giant panes of glass. Kagome snickered quietly to herself at Inuyasha. She doubted that he had even seen a room so large and he still was getting used to the glass doors at her house. Kagome picked a movie at random before lapsing into the memory of the `glass door incident.'
 
Flashback
 
Inuyasha walked out of the well house and greeted Souta just like always. Kagome poked her head out the window to say hi to Inuyasha.
 
“Hi Inuyasha!” Kagome called, “There's some ramen in the Kitchen for you!”
 
“Whatever,” Kagome ignored him and closed her window to talk to him.
 
Kagome walked into the Kitchen and brought the ramen out to the entry way to meet Inuyasha when he got inside. Kagome set down the bowl and turned around just in time to watch Inuyasha collide with the new glass door with a loud “Bong!”
 
Inuyasha bounced off the door and landed on his back, caught completely off the near invisible pane of glass. Kagome flung open the door and Inuyasha wasted no time in yelling at her.
 
“Hey! What was that for, Wench?!?” Inuyasha yelled.
 
End Flashback
 
Kagome shook he head smiling to her self. Sine then Inuyasha had been much more wary about walking through door ways. Kagome wrapped her arm around Inuyasha's and entangled her fingers with his. Inuyasha came down out of his thoughts to look at her in a bit of confusion, his eyes asking `what?'
 
“Oh nothing,” Kagome and Inuyasha moved forward with the line, reaching the ticket counter. Kagome bought the tickets to the movie and handed one to Inuyasha. Kagome walked through to the ticket master (guy that tears of ticket stubs) and handed him her ticket. He tore the stub off and handed Kagome back the main body of the ticket, keeping the stub. Inuyasha followed Kagome's lead with the ticket master and pocket his own ticket remains.
 
After that Kagome was dragged over to the concessions stand by Inuyasha. Inuyasha managed to control himself enough that he didn't attack the man behind the counter to get at the popcorn. With Inuyasha excited and money to spare, Kagome bought a large tub of popcorn and a large, 164oz. Mountain Dew.
 
Kagome sighed and shelled out a good sum for the food. Kagome had Inuyasha carry the drink and Carried the popcorn herself, to keep Inuyasha from eating it all before the movie even started.
 
Kagome turned left and walked into the theater room. Inuyasha didn't have any problems seeing in the dimly light room and helped the good-as-blind Kagome to the back of the giant room, soft music playing in the back ground and restaurant adds cycling by on the screen. Kagome and Inuyasha went straight for the back of the room.
 
Kagome stumbled a couple of times on the way up but Inuyasha caught her each time. The couple finally made it to the back row and Kagome picked a seat, Inuyasha right next to her. Kagome put the popcorn bucket and convinced Inuyasha to but the twin-strawed drink down between them.
 
Inuyasha and Kagome sat in silence for several minutes, holding each other's hand. After the movie started Inuyasha ended up glued to the screen, and Kagome fell into a stupor. In truth, the movie was rather boring but Inuyasha had never been to a movie theater so Inuyasha's interest was understandable. Kagome slumped over, canting the drink and unknowingly leaving her lips exactly where Inuyasha's straw had been. After a few seconds Inuyasha leaned over to get a drink, but instead of a mouthful of Mountain Dew, he got a mouth full of lips-of-Kagome.
 
Kagome felt something on her mouth and opened her eyes at the exact same moment Inuyasha realized that Kagome's mouth wasn't his straw. With inhuman speed the two separated, leaning as far away from each other as they could.
 
“Sorry,” Inuyasha said quickly, relaxing back into his seat properly.
 
“D-don't worry about it…”Kagome stuttered, the feeling of his lips on hers replaying through her mind. Kagome also relaxed back into her seat.
 
Inuyasha and Kagome sat in silence for a few minutes and them Kagome spoke, “Umm…Inuyasha?”
 
“Hm?” Inuyasha didn't look at her.
 
Kagome could see a red hue to his face, even though the screen was showing a bunch of green mountains, Is he blushing? “Umm…” Kagome felt herself blushing now, “could we…you know…uh…kinda…well…do that…again?”
 
Inuyasha squirmed uncomfortably in his seat and didn't reply, he didn't lean away though. Instead he put an arm around Kagome's shoulder. Kagome leaned her head on his shoulder, forgetting about the movie playing in front of her. Inuyasha holding her close, the thought of him kissing her running through her mind.
 
Inuyasha was torn, kiss Kagome again like he wanted to and get sat later, or play it safe. Fuck it…
 
Inuyasha turned to face Kagome, his lips descending upon hers.
 
Kagome was startled but kissed back all the same, Inuyasha's tongue groveling for permission to enter. She granted it willingly, the kiss becoming more and more heated by the second. Inuyasha withdrew his tongue and proceeded to nibble on her lower lip, tickling it with his fangs, his hands wrapped around Kagome's well curved form.
 
Before to long they parted for air and dived back onto each other, heedless of consequences and those who might be watching.
 
Below them the figure that had been trailing them walked into the room, his cold brown eyes searching for Kagome and the one who had stolen her from him. The figure spotted them in the back, all over each other. The figure gritted his teeth and turned around walking toward the exit and into a janitor's closet. The figure left the door open a little bit and unsheathed a long knife.
 
“I didn't give her all of those presents for nothing you filthy half-breed. I am in love with her and I will not let you soil her any longer with your filthy existence.” The figure tested the knife blade in a bit of his skin, the blade easily breaking through under its own weight. The figure smiled.
 
The movie ended and the figure watched from his hiding spot as the crowd left, Inuyasha and Kagome not among them, “Perfect.”
 
Inuyasha and Kagome waited for the crowd to leave and then departed themselves, they walked down the isle and then down the hall to the exit. Behind them a door slammed open and a figure launched itself at Inuyasha and Kagome, a knife in the figure's grasp.
