InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ True Love Lives On ❯ Chapter 9 ( Chapter 9 )

Chapter 9

Kagome and Inu-Yasha jumped into the well like they had a thousand times, except this time there was something different, the were holding hands and laughing. Yes, the all powerful and angry Inu-Yasha was laughing in complete happiness for the first time since Kikyo's passing.

When they had arrived on the other side of the well they found Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara were all standing there with looks of great concern on their faces.

"Where were you guys? We were really worried about you Kagome," Miroku said.

"Oh, I see, you didn't trust me to protect her, you silly monk?"

"Sango, what happened to Inu-Yasha? Do you think he hit his head?"

"I don't know Shippo. But, I agree this is very strange."

The others were trying to figure out what had happened to their two friends, yet no one noticed that they were holding hands.

"Inu-Yasha! You're so dumb sometimes. I really hope you protected Kagome…what if Kouga had come to take her away again? Then you would have been all sulky."

Shippo knew that this would rile Inu-Yasha up. He always knew just how to get Inu-Yasha really upset.

"Oh Shippo! I missed your sense of humor so much!"

"Oh my God! A demon! This is NOT Inu-Yasha! It's an imposter!"

The poor little kitsune had himself so worked up he could barely move.

"Shippo, calm down, it's ok. Once you all left I went after Kagome to apologize for seeing Kikyo again. When I got to her house, I was kind of screwed on staying there because it was a new moon, which in many ways was good. We finally declared our love for each other and things are going to change around here a lot."

Finally Sango realized they were holding hands and showed her satisfaction to the two of them by hugging Kagome.

"Kogome am so happy for the two of you! I knew he loved you back, I just knew it!"

The two women went off to talk about what all Sango had missed being away, while the men stayed to discuss their next move to find the rest of the jewel shards.

"Ya know Inu-Yasha, I am very happy for you and Kagome."

"Thanks Miroku, I am very glad I told her how I feel. It took such a burden from my shoulders. I am just really worried about what Kikyo might be up to. I mean, I told her in the woods that I loved Kagome, and she went after her. She meant to kill her Miroku, not just hurt her, but kill her. I'm a little worried about what is going to happen now that she knows me and Kagome are together."

As the men continued their conversation about Kikyo being a huge problem, Shippo thought to himself.

`Whenever Naraku knew Inu-Yasha still had feelings for Kikyo, he went after her. Whenever Sesshomaru wanted to find the remains of their father, he attacked Inu-Yasha with the un-mother who was an exact replica of his mother so as to fool him into telling him where it was, again, attacking him with the person he loved. What if Naraku finds out about Kagome and Inu-Yasha? Will he attack her next? I bet Kikyo went back to tell Naraku about them!'

"Umm…excuse me Inu-Yasha and Miroku."

"What is it Shippo?"

But before Shippo could ask Miroku turned to Inu-Yasha,

"Do you feel that? In the wind?"

"Yeah, awe shit, the girls are out walking"

Suddenly they saw a swarm of Naraku's poisonous insects flying toward them.

"We have to get to the girls to warn them, can you smell them"

"Yeah, lets go."
