InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Venerable Cede ❯ Confrontation ( Chapter 5 )

“What do you think Miroku? Should we let him out yet?” Shippou asked as he looked in the bars.

 

Inuyasha was glaring at him with a look of death. He had been beyond pissed since they told him that Kouga was planning to mate Kagome.

 

Regarding Kagome, they all had begun to worry. Kagome hadn't come back in days. How long did it take to mate? Miroku's scrolls were only temporary and probably couldn't take much more abuse from Inuyasha's beatings.

 

“YOU BETTER LET ME OUTTA HERE!!” the hanyou yelled as he began his poundings on the hut once more.

 

The three sighed simultaneously as he started on his ranting about being locked in. A profound crack of wood brought their attention back to the hut. The wood was breaking against the hanyou's efforts!

 

“Sango! Shippou! Come here and hold onto me!” he yelled as the boards split a little more.

 

The kit and the taija quickly grabbed onto Miroku as the boards blew apart from Inuyasha's last blow. The hanyou made a run for the trio, only to come into contact with a powerful barrier.

 

“What the fuck!?” he proclaimed.

 

Inuyasha beat on the force field but the moment he touched it with hard force, he was thrown back across the clearing. A tree cracked as Inuyasha collided with it, and he fell to the ground groaning from the impact but his body was not damaged as he stood up and brushed his clothes off.

 

“Feh, whatever I don't have time to mess with you! I gotta go teach a flea bitten fag not to touch what is mine.” he sneered.

 

The trio watched the hanyou ran down the fields at breakneck speed towards the eastern lands and Kouga's domain.

 

--.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

 

Kouga slowly opened his eyes, yawning and stretching his arms high above his head letting go of the warm object in his arms. His muscles were sore from staying in one position all night and became less cramped as he stretched. Once his body was awakened, he became more aware of his surroundings.

 

He was inside his room in the den with his new mate. His new pregnant mate. He smiled as he could clearly smell it. She was pregnant with his pup.

 

Sometime during the night Kouga's member had returned to normal and had yet to be removed. He slowly and carefully pulled out of her causing her to groan in either pain or pleasure, Kouga couldn't exactly tell which one.

 

Kouga raised his body higher to make his and his mates body aligned and brought his Kagome back into his embrace when she moaned. This time he clearly recognized it as a painful moan. Carefully, he raised himself onto his elbow and leaned over her as she slowly opened her eyes.

 

“Are you alright Kagome?” he asked worryingly.

 

Kagome grit her teeth as she forced herself to roll over. Blinding pain filled her area between her thighs as if on fire, and she moaned but flashed him a smile.

 

“Yeah Kouga, but you made me really sore.” she said giggling. She cupped his cheek, “my naughty little wolf” she joked.

 

Kouga smirked and chuckled. He kissed her on the forehead before hugging her. Kagome wrapped her arms around Kouga and buried her head into his chest. For as long as they could, they stayed in just the position, loving the feeling of being in each others arms until a rumble disrupted their morning.

 

Kagome blushed and Kouga laughed as her stomach continued to make noises.

 

“Hungry love?” he asked.

 

Kagome nodded with her cheeks still showing a flushing pink. Kouga smiled as he gave her another kiss on the lips before sitting up.

 

He stood and looked around for his strewn clothing from the previous night. He located his fur pelt, armor and coverings and slipped them all on, one by one. Kagome made a movement to get up but inhaled sharply at the pain she received from her nether region. She quickly lay back down and relaxed.

 

Kouga made it to her side quickly and took a hand in hers, deeply concerned.

 

“Are you sure you're ok?” he asked quickly.

 

Kagome giggled a little. “I'm sure I'm fine, just give me a while to adjust” she blushed.

 

Kouga still kept a concerned face as he looked lovingly into her face.

 

“Alright then, if you're sure. Now,” he smiled, “time to get my mate some food so our pup can grow up big and strong.” he said smiling brighter than the sun itself.

 

Kagome let off a smile of her own, “our pup” she said happily placing a hand on her stomach. She beamed up at Kouga before settling down onto the furs.

 

Kouga got up and left the room leaving Kagome to sleep and him to go fetch some food and mingle with his friends.

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Inuyasha ran through the familiar forest of Kouga's tribe. He could smell the disgusting wolf not far from him, but he wasn't after the wolf yet. First he would get Kagome then he would take care of the wolf.

 

He ran through the last bit of forest reaching the waterfalls' clearing. Not even bothering to stop the hanyou burst through the waterfalls coverage.

 

“KAGOME!”

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.*

 

She had been sleeping peacefully dreaming of her mate's sensual movements over her small form when yelling jerked her body awake.

 

“GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE! YOU'RE NOT WELCOME HERE!” a unknown voice rang out.

 

“THE HELL I'M NOT! I'M HERE TO GET KAGOME! SHE'S COMING WITH ME!”

 

Inuyasha's voice rang through the air and her body shot up. Immediately, she regretted it as pain shot through her body.

 

“Ouch!” she exclaimed.

 

She listened to the sounds of a struggle while the pain subsided. She made a movement to get up when the furs in Kouga's door were thrown to the side revealing a disbelieving hanyou.

 

She shrieked and made painful movements to cover herself.

 

“AH! Get out! Get out! I'm naked you idiot!!” she yelled.

 

Inuyasha couldn't believe his eyes. He could tell that this room belonged to Kouga, his scent was all over it, and there sitting on a pile of furs was Kagome, standing stark naked beside the bed with her clothes thrown to the floor in shreds. The smell of sex lingered in the air. He couldn't believe it….she betrayed him with his rival.

 

“Kagome….” he said disbelievingly.

 

She watched as his face went from disbelief to hurt, then finally to anger.

 

“What the hell did you do!? You fucking whore!” he yelled, walking forward and grabbing her.

 

Kagome screamed as Inuyasha grabbed her upper arm and squeezed it. He jerked her towards him and he took a large breath in, taking in her scent. His eyes widened as his breath stopped in the middle of his sniffing. Kagome watched in horror as stripes started to appear on his face and eyes started to bleed.

 

“You're pregnant?! YOU BITCH! YOU MATED WITH HIM! I can't believe this! I'll teach you to betray me!” he yelled.

 

Inuyasha threw Kagome carelessly over his shoulder, which caused her immense pain. She cried out and he muttered something about deserving it.

 

Inuyasha ran out of there with a screaming Kagome before anybody could do anything to stop him.

 

“NEE-SAN!!” she heard some of the tribesmen yell as she was carried out of the caves.

 

Kagome screamed her head off as the wind swept past her.

 

“KOUGA!! GINTA!! HAKKAKU!! SOMEBODY PLEASE!!!”

 

As soon as she screamed she was unceremoniously thrown to the ground. White hot pain shot up her back from her sacred place. She cried out as her naked body settled onto the brown dusty forest floor. She trembled at the stare that Inuyasha was giving her. Quickly backing up, she whimpered.

 

“Inuyasha please stop! Don't make me say it!” she threatened.

 

In return, he gave a spine tingling smile as he flexed his claws.

 

“Go ahead bitch, not even this can save you from your punishment.” he said smirking. He started to walk forward toward Kagome, baring his teeth and growling low.

 

“Punishment! You have got to be kidding! I didn't do anything wrong!” she yelled.

 

Kagome took one movement back with every step he took toward her. He growled loudly.

 

“You mated with Kouga bitch! I knew that I should have come out the moment I heard that you needed to be mated but the filthy half-breed forced me back. Now I come to find you mated with my rival, you damn whore!! You were mine to mark!” the full demon yelled and dove right at her.

 

“SIT” she yelled.

 

Inuyasha plummeted face first into the ground. Kagome wasted no time in running as fast as she could, ignoring the immense pain it caused her and not looking back. She heard the loud growls behind her.

 

“I will get you bitch! You will be sorry for what you did!!” he yelled in a low threatening tone.

 

Only then did Kagome look back to see him in midair to pounce on her. Kagome screamed as she jumped to the side, landing on the dusty forest floor. She looked over to see that he had landed with his feet crouched on the ground and his back hunched over like a wild man. She turned onto her back and crawled backwards as far as she could until her back hit a tree. He looked at her with anger filled eyes before he pounced again. This time she had nowhere to go; she had been boxed in by two other trees, so she did the only thing she could think of.

 

She screamed.

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.*

 

Kouga smiled as he picked up his catch for the pack. He, Ginta and Hakkaku had each caught something to feed the pack, Kouga's was the biggest. He had caught a full grown buck while Ginta had caught a boar and Hakkaku killed four rabbits for the pups in the pack.

 

They ran back through the foliage not far from the den before breaking into the waterfall's clearing.

 

All three demons let off a growl as Inuyasha's scent reached their noses. His scent was unmistakable and their fear escalated when they remembered that they left Kagome in Kouga's room.

 

They ran through the waterfall not even bothering to miss the water, getting themselves wet in the process. Inside, some of his men with the more serious injuries were being checked by the healer while the others with slight injuries were being checked by the other tribesmen. The wolves had become huddled into a group, whining with their heads on the ground between their paws.

 

“WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!” Kouga yelled.

 

Several of his tribesmen ran to him telling their versions all at the same time. Kouga became frustrated towards their attempts to speak to him.

 

“Silence! ONE of you tell me what happened!” Kouga ordered.

 

A wolf demon about as tall as Kouga with dark black hair and a scar running down his face stepped out of the group to talk up on the turn of events.

 

“The hanyou came in ordering for Kagome, we told him he wasn't welcome so he attacked our troops and ran past us. Before we knew it he was carrying nee-san out of the cave murmuring something about punishment,” the tribesman reported.

 

Kouga had turned a ghastly white with a look of panic on his face. Without even a warning he turned and ran back out of the den, into the clearing just in front of the waterfall. He started sniffing for Kagome's scent only to find that the water from the falls had washed it away. It was so faint that he couldn't find a strong enough trail to follow.

 

“Dammit!” he cursed aloud.

 

Two splashes from the falls caused him to turn and see Ginta and Hakkaku; Ginta was carrying a blanket. Kouga raised an eyebrow.

 

“After you left the tribesmen added a little bit of information” Hakkaku reluctantly said.

 

Kouga was puzzled at what the tribesmen could possibly add that would cause them to take a blanket. He went over the possibilities very quickly, all of them ended in a place that he didn't want his mind to travel on.

 

“And that would be?” Kouga asked through gritted teeth, his eyes gaining a small tint of crimson.

 

Ginta and Hakkaku exchanged worried glances before Ginta murmured so low that their youkai hearing couldn't catch it.

 

“What?” Kouga said with annoyance in his voice.

 

“She's n-naked” he repeated.

 

Kouga growled a feral growl as his eyes gained more red. He clenched his fists at the thought of his woman, captured, naked, and vulnerable by the hanyou Inuyasha. His mind traveled to the safety of his unborn pup and how it was in danger. More flecks of red could be seen as the thought of his pup possibly dying as a result of the out of control hanyou. Another growl breeched his lips as he flexed his claws.

 

A high pitched scream brought him out of his thoughts. The sound of his mate screaming made his blood run cold and goosebumps appear on his flesh. His gazed turned slightly to the east, where the sound originated from. His growl grew fiercer as he became determined to follow the sound of his beloved mate.

 

With a quick glance to the pair behind him, he took off in a whirlwind into the foliage with his friend's right behind.

 

Kouga sped through the forest towards his mates frantic screams, hoping to make it there in time to save his family and kill the hanyou that dare take her away.

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- .-

 

Kagome screamed as Inuyasha pounced on her, pinning her to the ground. He straddled her waist as he held her wrists above her head with his hands. His face showed a mixture of disappointment and pure raw anger.

 

“Now bitch you get your punishment for betraying me” he said in a gruff voice.

 

“I didn't betray you! You're the one to refused to help me! Now you're too late, I'm mated to Kouga and I love him! You blew it!” she yelled in his face defiantly.

 

Her response was a swift backhand across her face that threw her head to the side harshly. She cried out her pain but wouldn't let tears escape her eyes; she wouldn't give him the satisfaction.

 

Inuyasha growled at the woman beneath him and Kagome shivered, keeping her eyes shut. A hot breath on her ear told her he was leaned down towards her head.

 

“I'm going to force you into miscarriage of that filthy wolf spawn you have in your belly, and then kill you nice and slow.” he whispered evilly.

 

Kagome's breath started to shake as she opened her eyes in fright. She began to wriggle underneath him and attempt to escape, but he was just too strong. She gave a high pitched scream which he silenced with another hard backhand across the face. For only a moment, she became disoriented from his blow. Her body became weak and tired as her slight concussion caused her muscles to instantly relax and her vision to blur. Kagome moaned out the pain in her face and forced herself to stay conscious. She barely noticed when her body was picked up and shoved against a tree, her hands were lifted and pinned against the tree and tied there as she tried to gain her vision back.

 

She felt her feet being tied to the tree as well before Inuyasha completely let go, letting the weight of her body fall forward and put pressure on her arms and shoulders. Kagome's head hung limply from her head trauma, she moaned from the pain coursing through her body as Inuyasha let off a cold laugh. Her blood ran a dead cold from fear for not her life, but that of her unborn pup. She forced her head to lift and look forward toward him with unfocused eyes. He was advancing on her as he cracked his knuckles; she realized that he had tied her up to use her as a punching bag.

 

Kagome squirmed to release herself from her bonds but they were to strong. The tears sprung from her eyes as she thought no one would show in time and her first pup was going to die at Inuyasha's hands. She let out a deep sob of sorrow and lowered her head in defeat as she waited for the blow.

 

It never came.

 

Kagome opened her eyes to find that her vision was worsening; all she could see now were blotches. Forcing her head up se saw one red and one brown blob. She could hear loud growling coming from both before the brown blotch threw the red across the clearing.

 

“Kagome” a soft voice said to her right.

 

She could only moan in response as she lay slack in her bonds. She closed her eyes in pain but squeaked in fear and surprise when something soft made contact with her skin. She shied away from it in fear and she whimpered. The soft material left her with a jump.

 

“Kagome, it's ok, it's me Ginta.” he said quietly.

 

“G-ginta?” she questioned.

 

“Yeah, it's ok Kagome, we'll get you down.”

 

Kagome felt the rope holding her feet to the tree loosen and release her. The soft material made it's way around her as her hands were broken free and she fell limply into someone's arms.

 

“Kagome? What's wrong?” she heard another voice ask. She recognized the voice as coming from Hakkaku.

 

She moaned back and she was lowered into an embrace on the forest floor. She opened her eyes to see two blurs looking down at her.

 

“Kami Ginta, look at those bruises on her face. He must have hit her hard” Hakkaku said.

 

Kagome's head was lifted up and she saw a large blur near her face.

 

“Kagome, how many fingers do you see.” Ginta asked.

 

She tried to focus but was unable to. “Uhhh six?” she asked wearily.

 

The hand was taken away from her face with a sigh of disappointment. She relaxed more and felt like falling into a peaceful sleep. She was abruptly shaken.

 

“Kagome! Don't fall asleep! You have a concussion and if you fall asleep you will most likely not wake up for a very long time. Focus on something Kagome, stay awake.” Ginta ordered.

 

She opened her half lidded eyes and tried to focus on her surroundings. Blurs of green, brown, grey and white could be seen around her. Kagome thought hard about what to focus on.

 

My pup…That's it focus on my baby…

 

She imagined carrying it to term with Kouga by her side, raising it, spending time with her baby, and anything she could think of to keep her focused.

 

“What the hell?! What did you do to her!?”

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

 

Kouga had burst into the clearing just as Inuyasha's fist reared back to punch his Kagome in the stomach. He ran forward with demon speed, caught and clenched the hand that dare hurt him mate and pup. He growled loudly at the hanyou and kicked him across the clearing.

 

“Ginta, Hakkaku, get Kagome,” he ordered.

 

The two ookami demons rushed to their sisters side as Kouga walked to the recovering hanyou with clenched fists.

 

“You dare touch my mate dog turd!” Kouga growled.

 

Inuyasha stumbled up and growled back, not even resorting to words. He glared at the ookami demon before attacking promptly.

 

Kouga was ready for the punch that flew for his face and moved at the last second. He moved his head to the left and grabbed Inuyasha's arm, twisting his hand behind his back, trapped his other hand and pushed him to the ground. Kouga straddled Inuyasha's back, effectively disabling him, so that he couldn't do any more damage than he already had. Kouga knew that despite what Inuyasha had just tried to do. Kagome would not want him harmed.

 

The hanyou struggled underneath Kouga's holdings with no avail. Kouga was holding down firm and he leaned down to whisper into Inuyasha's ear.

 

“For Kagome's sake, I'm not going to kill you for you stupidity. I also know that your not in your right mind and that your hanyou side would regret what you are doing now, so for your own good you have to turn back.”

 

A loud growl was his answer before a gruff voice said, “Fuck you!” and the body began to struggle once again.

 

Kouga sighed and held firm onto his prisoner.

 

“Kouga! Kouga!”

 

He looked up to see a fire neko flying in the sky with two humans and a kit on his back. Kouga watched them land and jump off of the large cat.

 

Sango rushed forward with Inuyasha's sword.

 

“Here Kouga, this should turn him back to normal.”

 

She leaned down and placed the sword in Inuyasha's right hand. Immediately the growls died down and crimson eyes turned to soft amber. A confused look crossed his features before anger and frustration came forth.

 

“What the hell! Get off me ya mangy flea bag!”

 

Kouga quickly got up and off the hanyou, who proceeded to jump up and dust himself off. He looked up, clearly annoyed.

 

“What the hell are you doing here wolf?!”

 

Kouga frowned. “Me? These are my lands dog shit, you're in my territory.”

 

“Your lands, what the hell am I doin here?” he asked more to himself than anyone else. He looked around the clearing. He saw the houshi, taijia and kit along with kouga but where was….

 

He gasp as his gaze landed on Kagome. He turned to Kouga and growled.

 

“What the hell?! What did you do to her?!” he yelled.

 

Kouga took on a look on anger. “How dare you! I would never harm my mate! I saved her from YOU!”

 

Inuyasha looked shocked and devastated at the same time.

 

“N-no I wou-wouldn't do that.”

 

Kouga huffed in response and walked away leaving a disbelieving hanyou behind him.

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

 

Kagome was starting to lose the battle to stay awake. No matter what Hakkaku and Ginta did, she got drowsier by the minute.

 

“Kagome! Kagome!” Ginta yelled but he received no answer, only a blank look. “Dammit!” he cursed. He reached down and cradled her into his arms and shaking her slightly.

 

“What is going on?” Kouga said as he approached his mate, friends and Kagome's friends, kneeling down beside Kagome and Ginta.

 

“She's having trouble staying conscious. We need to get her to a healer and fast.” Hakkaku reported to his friend and leader.

 

Kouga took one look at Kagome and a frown marred his face. He held back pure rage towards the hanyou when he saw her bruises, so he settled on growling. Both of her cheeks and temples were deep shades of purples and blues with the occasional green blotches. His growl grew when Kagome moaned in pain and slipped further into unconsciousness. He strode forward quickly and picked her up as gently as he could and disappearing in a whirlwind of dust, leaving the others behind to wonder what would become of their friend and sister.

 

He made it to the den in no time flat, which was good for Kagome. As soon as he passed the waterfall she woke up a little from the rush of cold water, but she still did not gain full awareness. He called for one of his men to send for the best healer of the pack and tell them to go to his chambers as he walked away with his mate.

 

Through the short tunnels, he walked before reaching his and Kagome's room. He quickly walked through the door and laid her on their furs. With the gentleness of a butterfly, he caressed her battered face.

 

“Don't give up on us Kagome, stay strong” he praised her.

 

No reply came from the fragile form on the bed and it worried him to no end.

 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

 

It didn't take long for the healer to arrive, in which case, she ushered Kouga out so she could work. It took only ten minutes before she came out saying that Kagome would be fine.

 

“What about-” Kouga began.

 

A hand held into the air stopped his next worlds as she said. “The pup is more than healthy” she smiled.

 

Kouga smiled and quickly rushed past the healer into his chambers where his mate was sitting up, looking straight at him.

 

“Hey Kouga” she greeted cheerfully, despite the trauma she just received.

 

Kouga walked to her and embraced her tightly yet gently.

 

“Kagome” he sighed happily. “Thank kami your alright. I thought I would lose you again.”

 

The raven-haired girl smiled and placed a hand onto his cheek. “I'll never leave you Kouga. I love you to much to do that to you.”

 

He smiled and climbed onto the bed with his mate “I love you too Kagome” Giving her a quick sensual kiss, they lay down on the furs and fell fast asleep with both of their hands on Kagome's stomach.
