Part V

"Aibou!...."

"Forget it Yami, you're not getting those pictures!"

Atemu pouted as Yugi glanced back at him. Yugi had to stiffle a giggle at the normal serious pharaoh reduced to pouting. Suddenly a loud squeal interrupted the two.

"You two are so cute together!" Karoma grinned as InuYasha and Kagome both walked into the room, blushes apparent on both of their faces. InuYasha kept muttering something about stupid wenches and why did he have to get stuck with this one as he went to sit on the nearest chair.

Kagome just shook her head at her yami, a small smile on her face. Suddenly, the gameshop door burst open, a blonde head appearing soon followed by a brunette. Said brunette was limping and had blood running down the side of his face. A deep gash could be seen peeping out from under his bangs. "Yug!"

Yugi immediately ran over as Atemu went to get the medical kit. "Jou, what happened?"

Seto let out a soft growl answering for the blonde. "We were heading over here when some baka jumped us...." As Seto was explaining, Yami returned with the medical kit, pulling bandages and antiseptic out and handing them to Jou.

"He kept demanding that we tell him where Yugi's cousin was." Kagome let out a small gasp as Karoma stepped forward with a frown. Both Jou and Seto blinked, looking at the twin girls. "Damnit!" Karoma growled as she looked over at her hikari. "Pasekhonsu must think that Kagome is me."

Atemu nodded, "He probably thinks that you were reincarnated into Kagome. He doesn't realize that you're actually still alive...well, so to speak." Atemu smirked.

"And now he wants Kagome cause he thinks that she's Karoma." Ryou finished as he entered the room with Bakura on his heels.

"Well, he's not getting either one of them!" A growl was heard. Jou and Seto both turned to look, eyes widening as they finally noticed a certain dog-earred figure sitting on the chair a few feet away from them.

"Um..wha?...How?" Jou stuttered as he actually took a good look around the room. Yugi just chuckled and sat his best friend down. "Well, it's kinda like this....."

After a very lengthy explanation, Jou and Seto were finally caught up, even though Seto wasn't exactly amused with finding out about more egyptian rubbish and now he had to deal with youkai being real too. He had to admit though, he had a certain deju-vu feeling around Karoma, as if he knew her but just couldn't remember how. Seto shook his head clearing his thoughts. "We have to do something soon, he has Mokuba!"

"WHAT?!"

All eyes turned towards Seto has he looked up, fire in his eyes. "The bastard has Mokuba and if he hurts him in anyway..."

"Well, he's not getting Kagome or Karoma for that matter!"

"Inu..." Kagome glanced at him, a scowl on her face. "We'll do what we need to to help out."

"I'm not letting either of you...."

"InuYasha!"

Karoma stepped in. "We need to help rescue Seto's brother. I assure you, I will not allow my hikari to be hurt."

"You're damn straight she won't, because I'm not letting her go." InuYasha growled, grabbing Karoma's arm. "I'm not letting you go either, it's too dangerous."

"Damnit, InuYasha, I'm already dead! And do you really think I would let anything happen to Kagome?!?"

"I don't care! You still have a body and you CAN get hurt and I sure as hell ain't lettin' Kagome get hurt!"

"I will not let Kagome get hurt and that is the end of this discussion!" Karoma growled, sennen eye blazing on her forehead. Clenching her fists, she took a deep breath and walked out of the room. Bakura raised an eyebrow. "You don't know how lucky you just were dog-boy."

InuYasha feh'd and sat down. "Why?"

"My cousin could have easily sent you to the shadow realm." Atemu replied, glancing at the way Karoma went.

Yugi nodded, walking over to his aibou. "You really upset her. Normally the sennen eye doesn't appear on a yami's forehead unless they're really mad or upset about something. It probably took a lot for her not to send you there."

InuYasha sighed, "I really didn't mean to. I just don't want to see Kagome or her hurt."

Kagome came over and hugged him gently. "You just went about showing her that you care the wrong way. Just say you're sorry. I'm sure she'll understand."

"Maybe."

Kagome gave him a gentle push. "Go on."

"Keh....fine." InuYasha frowned and headed the way Karoma had disappeared to. The rest of the gang settled down, beginning to discuss plans on what to do next.

**********

InuYasha entered the kitchen to find Karoma sitting at the table. Walking over he pulled out a chair and sat out infront of her.

"Karoma.."

"What do you want? Come to tell me I can't take care of my aibou somemore?" Karoma scowled.

InuYasha frowned, "That's not what I meant at all. I think you are perfectly able to take care of Kagome and yourself. But from what you were saying about this creep, it sounds like he would take great pleasure in hurting you and Kagome. I'm not going to sit here and watch that happen!"

"I didn't say that you had to sit and.....oops." A loud crash and muffled cursing was heard as Inuyasha's face met the ground. Karoma winced and looked down, an apologetic expression on her face. "Gomen."

"Yeah, yeah." InuYasha grumbled as he got back into his chair. Karoma looked into his face, her head cocked to the side. "I understand about my aibou, but why do you care so much if I'm hurt or not?"

InuYasha raised an eyebrow, a scowl appearing on his face. "I care about you too wench. Don't get me wrong, I don't care about you in the same way that I do Kagome but I still do care."

"Oh?" Karoma gave him a small smile as InuYasha nodded. "Yeah, you kinda remind me of an annoying sister."

"Annoying?!?!"

"Yeah...annoy...why are you looking at me like that?" InuYasha slowly began to get up as he noticed the tick behind Karoma's right eye.

"I'll show you annoying!!"

Muttering an 'oh shit what have I done now', InuYasha began walking very fast towards the door. Karoma grinned evilly as she began to follow, maybe sending a certain someone to the shadow realm would be a good idea after all.
