You wrote: “I love Hiei/Kagome, but this could be an interesting Hiei/Kagome/Inuyasha.” I'm taking this as a vote for Hiei/Kag/Inu. If this is not, please notify me. ^__^

 

Dark Inu Fan—I know Kouga's an ookami. Thanks though. I couldn't remember what insults Inuyasha and Kouga throw at each other in the anime. My brain is fried…if I ever even had one.

 

moga-wachutu—Here's an update! :p

 

iyfanatic—I know I'm evil…but I just couldn't help it. The wheels in my head began to turn and my fingers were just glued to the keyboard, even though I should have been doing my mountainous pile of homework.

 

VB—Don't worry, something will shake him from his gloom soon. ^_~

 

Ice-neko-girl—I think you're the second to faint…not counting me. I love you all! Thanks!

kogas_mate—HOLY F@#%IN S$%@! Do you happen to have a fanfiction on mm called My Savior and one called Circumstances?

I know Hiei was OOC, but I couldn't help but add it. You hate Inu?! I'll pretend I didn't hear that. Anytime. ^______^

 

Chapter 11: Mating Bonds

Everyone outside the room shivered as a pained and broken howl pierced the air. Kurama realized his friend was in pain and made a move toward the room only to be restrained by the taiyoukai. For some reason, he knew that it was not the time to interrupt, no matter how alarming the howl had been. All waited tensely.

Even Sesshomaru made no move toward the door. He knew what had caused the heart-rending emotion in the Forbidden Child. His senses, even sharper than Inuyasha's, had picked up on Kagome's condition. No matter how much he wanted to barge in and tear both the apparition and the hanyou into microscopic pieces, no matter how much he wanted to be there to comfort his little sister, he knew that the matter had to be resolved between mates first. Inuyasha shouldn't be in there, but it would do no good to retrieve him now.

Kurama glanced at the taiyoukai when he felt the tremble through the arm that was holding him. He was shocked to see that Sesshomaru's eyes were flashing red, and his aura was flaring as he struggled to remain in control of his transformation. Sesshomaru noticed Kurama's gaze and immediately reigned in his emotion.

 

Hiei's pain broke Kagome from her stunned silence. She lifted her tear-stained face and saw his immense sorrow. Her heart squeezed painfully when she felt his emotions radiating through their bond.

“Kagome.” That one whispered word held so much emotion. Kagome shifted in his lap and hugged him. His arms clutched her close. She knew he didn't mean it. Her baby was gone, but they could make another. All of a sudden, Hiei pushed her back. Kagome fell back in shock. Neither noticed the growling hanyou in the room.

“Hiei…what's wrong?” Kagome reached out to touch his arm, but he smacked it away.

“Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant? You hid your scent from me. You lost my child.” Hiei's face was an emotionless mask. He struggled to remain cold when he saw the tremble in her lips and the tears running down her cheeks. “You are no longer my mate. I release you from this bond. I break the mating mark. Leave onna.” Kagome stared at him disbelievingly. Her hand flew up to her neck as a burning sensation ripped through her body. She felt as if she were losing a part of her self, of her soul, her heart.

“Iie. Hiei. Onegai, don't do this.” She reached for him again only to be pushed away. Hiei stood and left the room in a flash. Kagome crumpled to the ground in sobs. Her eyes lightened from their brown color to a mellow gold. Tears fell from her eyes to kiss the ground. Inuyasha started moving toward her, but she scooted back. “Onii-san…” Kagome whispered almost silently.

Sesshomaru heard her and entered the room, glancing at everyone else to stay put. What he saw made his eyes flash a deep crimson. Kagome lay sobbing on the floor, and Hiei was no where to be found. “Leave us brother.” When Inuyasha opened his mouth to refuse, Sesshomaru fixed him with a meaningful glare. “Now.” Inuyasha scurried out the door. Sesshomaru gathered Kagome's limp form to his chest. “Imouto. Everything's going to be fine.” Sesshomaru rocked her in his arms. He sniffed her and realized that the apparition had somehow removed the mating mark. “I'm here now imouto. I'm here.” Kagome buried her head into his chest and clenched her fists around his clothes. A fresh wave of sobs wracked her frame.

After a few moments, Kagome asked Sesshomaru to let her have some time alone. He was hesitant, but he gave in. When she was sure he had left, she climbed from the window and race off toward the park. She just needed some peace.

 

Hiei fled to the Goshinboku and took comfort in the giant tree's aura. `Gomen ne, Kagome. You are better off without me.'

 

Sinister red eyes stared into the white-haired demon's mirror. “So, my little miko. It seems you are vulnerable right now. Let me come and comfort you.” He laughed as he created a portal to Kagome's location.

 

Kagome sat on a bench with her knees pulled up to her chest. She couldn't believe it. Just like that her world had shattered. Her sorrow wrapped around her like a cloak. She didn't sense him until it was too late. A pair of arms wrapped around her as a swirling miasma choked her senses.

“Hello my miko. We meet again.” His fingers caressed her cheek in an almost tender gesture. Kagome was too fatigued, emotionally, mentally and physically, to resist. She fell limp in his arms as darkness seized her vision. A last weak mental call went out to Hiei, but she was certain it was useless. Tsuyoi picked her up and vanished back to his hiding place.

 

Hiei's jagan shot open on its own accord. He could feel the urgency it felt in locating something. The jagan seemed almost frantic. After a few moments, it seemed it had found what it was looking for. Hiei froze as the eye passed on the weak message from Kagome. His entire body glowed with an angry light as he saw Kagome in Tsuyoi's arms as he saw the evil demon touch her. A howl left his throat when the image was cut off. The evil demon's voice rang in his head.

“Forbidden Child. Come to my castle in Makai. Come and watch me take your once mate as mine. Come see the pain in her eyes as I take her as mine forever.”

Had anyone been near Hiei at that moment, they would have run in fright. His eyes glowed with a malevolent light, promising death to the one who had taken Kagome away.

 

“Sesshomaru! Let me see Kagome.” Inuyasha tried to push past his brother futilely.

“Let her be. She needs time to mourn.”

“She needs me right now! That short bastard released her from the mating bonds after he killed their child!” Inuyasha opened his mouth to shout some more, but fell silent when Sesshomaru landed a neatly placed blow to the side of his neck, knocking him out for the time-being.

 

VOTE COUNT:

Hiei/Kag: 14

Hiei/Kag/Inu: 7

Unless I counted wrong, the TRIO pairing is falling behind. Please note, this is a trio pairing, not just Inu/Kag. Would LITA (Hiei/Kag) and ANONYMOUS (Hiei/Kag/Inu) please confirm their votes because I wasn't sure which you voted for. If anyone wants to check my vote count for me, feel free to! ^____^

 

A/N: So sorry for the long delay and the short chapter. I'll try to get another out on spring break. Hiei/Kag/Inu is falling behind. Vote soon!
