InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Till the gods bring us apart ❯ Chapter two ( Chapter 3 )

Chapter two

 

Pain was not quite the word to describe the pulsing sting between his legs; caused by an extraordinary
well placed kick of his new mate. Well, in all honesty he was not even sure why this cranky, brutal
and damn quick female demon had turned his mate in the first place but the great Lord of the western
lands would never give in to the fact that he was at least as confused about the last days as his insolent
half brother.

 

His naked half brother who was currently glued to the Lords equally naked body by the magic
subduing spell of said freaked out mate -and to play with honest words once more- Sesshomarou was
far from pleased about all this.

 

“How long will this direful spell last…?” The Lord of the western lands growled, still pinned to the
bed by his growling brother.

 

“Don't dare thinking I like this situation…” Inuyasha growled back and tried hard to get his face from
the more than compromising place on his half-brothers belly. “Normally it is long time worn off…It
got stronger or she is still yelling it… wherever she is...!” The Hanyou wailed annoyed.

 

Sesshomarou rolled with his eyes and continued staring at the ceiling to wait for the end of this
torture and a chance to run behind his mate. Their mate, yet another fact on this problem he did not
really understand but would rather endure than show weakness before his annoyance of brother.

 

“MILORD!! MILORD!!” It called from down the hall and both demon brothers recalled the fact that -
whilst most servants in the household of this castle where not nearly senile enough to dare coming in
right now - one servant of the lord wasn't quite as wise as the rest.

 

“Milord?? There was a demoness escaping our walls…!! She hit me over the head and dumped all
castle guards…!! MILORD??” The Toad babbled quickly, blinking as he saw the state of his lord.
“What are you doing there with your brother milord...?”

 

“Nothing of your concern Jaken…” Sesshomarou glared at the toad as good as he could from his
position underneath Inuyasha. And Finally - after a way to long period of endless embarrassment -
Inuyasha pulled himself from his brother and jumped off the bed for his cloths.

 

“Where did she go?” The Hanyou growled angrily at the Toad.

 

“Who are you to give me orders Hanyou?!!” the Toad snapped back and earned himself a hard dump
on the head by said Hanyou and a growl of his real Master who demanded answer. “She took off to
the north…”

 

Both brothers shared one look, thinking of an encounter that had happened only days ago in the
north. An accident with the Lord of the North, who was to blame for a big part of the happenings
which had lead to this morning.

 

“She's gone to Kouga… I should have known it...” Inuyasha groaned and was shaking his head
already on his way out on the room. Sesshomarou was up like a flash and with his brother in not the
blink of an eye later, both heading for the north and the place their new mate would probably head for
first.

Kagome's head was still pulsing in some odd way -not to mention all those strange flashes of pictures
that appeared in the back of her head- only to disappear a second later in the darkness. She closed her
eyes once more and opened them again to clear all dizziness from her sight on her reflection.

 

“So, now finally tell me…” She started slowly. “Why exactly am I demon?”

 

`Believe me....' Her reflection put up a dark smile and flashed her fangs. `It is bound to a lot of pleasurable
experiences… you would have loved to be there....'

 

“That explains so much…” Kagome growled, the sarcasm dripping of her words in thick heavy drops.
“I asked you a question... you know?”

 

`And I was about to answer it…' Her reflection huffed back. `Well, you turned demon, because you was
possessed… that's easy ne?' She explained and Kagome titled her head in confusion.

 

“You mean I was possessed by a demon? And this fact shall make me demon now?” She asked
repeated and rubbed her brow. “That makes no sense… Why should I turn demon from being
possessed by a demon… and the better question would be; why I ended up with Inuyasha and his
brother..?” She pulled the sheet together once more remembering the marks. “And what about this
marks..?”

 

`Oh that one is easy… this means that those who gave you this are your mates now…' Her reflection beamed
back. `And If I may say that... you got two quite handsome men there… I couldn't have picked them better…'

 

“Mates…” Kagome repeated. “You mean they are… something like my husbands? Both of them?” She
yelped and a deep blush crawled all over her body. That explained the memories of her strange
dream, but nothing else. It did not make sense at all; Inuyasha hated Sesshomarou. There was not a
chance in hell they would live through being close enough to each other to mark her both, let alone
make love to her -and anyway- what a absurd story was this? Sesshomarou making love to a human
woman peacefully sharing this woman with Inuyasha, this simply was wrong.

 

`I know, I know, it's hard to understand but I will explain anything to you.' Her reflection tried to sooth her
and Kagome only growled down at herself. Her eyes sparkling red of sudden anger and confusion
which resulted in a loud roar as her fist crashed down into the water.

 

“THAN DO IT DAMNIT!!” She yelled at herself.

 

`Ouch, Ouch… I got it!!' her reflection wailed. `We are partners here... no need to go all berserk on me....'

 

“You mean us...” Kagome corrected angrily. “Now tell me… why am I demon and the mate of
Inuyasha and his brother… and you have exactly one trial before I get up and home...” She growled
darkly her fist sill in the air to hit back down into the water.

 

`First off love, the two of them only wanted to keep you from dying… because you would have died, consumed by
the one who possessed you… so technically they saved you…' Her reflection smirked, finally cleared out
from all the riffles of water that had marred her face. `And love… you can't go back home… you are demon

now… forgotten?'

 

The words sunk in slowly and for the first time Kagome thought on the fact that she perhaps really
never could get back like she was now. So many feelings rushed back in on her -and suddenly- she felt
so lost that she only wanted to go home and escape into her mother's arms. This nightmare was too
much, being possessed, mated and marked for whatever reason in such a short time. She had almost
died, had done things she could not remember in more than a few flashes of pictures and Inuyasha
and Sesshomarou had saved her; it still made no sense.

 

She looked back down but her reflection had changed back to her normal one, not moving or
speaking of her own anymore.

 

“You really were a big help...” She snapped and sighed deeply.

 

An earthy smell came to her nose, not rich enough to belong to her new mates and not spicy enough
for a human but familiar to her in some way. She knotted the sheet around her chest as tight as it was
possible and wrapped the parts that were to long a second time around her waist. Than she took a few
deep breaths and listened to the forest around her; this smell was belonging to someone very familiar.

 

“Kagome?!!”

 

It called from a bit further in the trees and she followed the voice and the smell. Running down the
paths through the cool shadows under the forest tops, surprised that it felt like seconds in which she
managed to run a couple of miles.

 

She would have matched Inuyasha and even Sesshomarou as far as she could tell, she really had
turned demon.

 

The smell came closer and closer as she stopped on the top of a small hill. She knew the surroundings
which must have been the woods where they had stopped a couple of days ago. The last clear
memories of her travel with her friends had happened somewhere here between rice fields and
woods. There also was this familiar tingle of a couple of shards coming closer now so she looked out
across the plane and found a tornado coming closer although the sky was clear. Relief washed over
her soul like a wave, finally someone who could help her out of this madness.

 

“Kouga…” She sighed happily and took off to find him.
