Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Stealing From Thieves ❯ Chapter Ten ( Chapter 10 )

Summary: Fighting ensues and demons get killed. Heat forces matings, powers come out, and will Naraku finally be killed?

 

Have you ever stolen from a thief? One of the greatest thieves in the Sengoku Jedai is Hiei Jaganashi, and Kagome Higurashi is trying to steal from him the one thing he's never given to anyone... the one thing that he has always had... his heart. Will she succeed? Or will Hiei only care for her for reasons not mentioned?

 

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Inuyasha or YuYu Hakusho. I wish I did, but sadly... I don't. I make NO money from the stories. I merely write them for my own enjoyment (and to see if anyone will actually read them).

The miko once again snuck out, using the same chant until the shards vanished into what appeared to be thin air. But around her neck, more shards assimilated onto the pink bauble that hung there. Perhaps she was chanting to gather the shards on the chain and join them together then; at least that was the plausible answer.

 

It had been a few months since their journey once again commenced, and still none had seen Kouga yet. Shippo told of how some wolf demons stayed in their caves for long periods of time after taking a mate, waiting until their mate was pupped before leaving. Accepting this answer, the group decided it was probably for the best, as they had no idea how he'd react to Kagome still being alive, or how Hiei would react to said reaction.

 

They had also heard not a word from Kikyo, Inuyasha, or Naraku. This meant that they needed to be careful as that group was probably planning something. Though their own group had to start being very careful as Kagome was beginning to show in her pregnancy. So far she was six months along and her tummy was rounding quite nicely. Her training with Sango had also been going quite well until her brother forced her to stop for the time being.

 

Souta's training was also going well, as his didn't need to be put on hold. Though Sango would soon become unable to continue his training as she, too, was pregnant. Hers was courtesy of Miroku though. Sango was three months along while Kagome was six. Both were becoming annoyed with the restrictions that were being placed on them because of their pregnancies. The most Kagome was still allowed to practice was her archery, which was what she was doing at the moment.

 

"Evil male youkai," she grumbled as she released the arrow. Pure energy swirled around the tip as it rocketed to its target. A feeling sent her to tensing, before she quickly drew three arrows and fired in rapid succession…. Well, she at least hit one. Dodging the two she missed, she turned quickly and pushed pure energy into her bow before smacking one of the remaining demons with it. The result was the wood splintering in her fingers as the last one came at her. "Damn." The muttered curse came just as she saw the last demon was too close.

The scent of blood had all of the demons snapping to attention as it covered the air, permeating the entirety of the forest; it was so thick that they could taste it. Hiei was the first to fully react though, moving quickly and racing off to the source of the scent. The scene he came across had him enraged. A demon had bit into the flesh of his mate's side, its fangs slowly sinking deeper into her skin. Quickly he dispatched it before catching her as she fell. "Are you alright?"

 

A smile slowly graced her features as she groggily looked up at him. "Of course, I'm only bleeding." Then, she fainted.

"Is she gonna be ok?"

 

"Of course!"

 

"What about the baby?"

 

"She'll be fine."

 

Slowly, silver eyes opened to the surrounding voices. It was several moments before the girl could fully focus her attention on what was around her, and one of the things she noticed was Shippo and Souta were both huddled close to her bed, asleep. It was odd since she could've swore that she had just heard them talking about her moments before hand. Shaking that from her mind at the moment, she focused on the others whom were also gathered around her.

 

They all appeared worried and when she tried to shift she understood why as pain shot through her. Slowly her energy began to rise and the others took notice as the wound began to stitch itself closed. The wound was gone and so she rose to a sitting position and looked out at the others with a soft smile. "Sorry if I worried all of you, those demons caught me by surprise. How long have I been out."

 

"Out?" questioned Youko as he looked at her strangely.

 

Miroku, though, knew of her futuristic speak and answered the question, "most of the day, though you did lose a lot of blood."

 

"You aren't going anywhere else without supervision," stated Hiei as he looked at her flatly.

 

Defiance appeared in her eyes as she looked directly at him, "you do not own me and therefore I shall do as I wish!" Storming out of the hut she wrapped herself in a barrier before also shouting, "and do not try to follow me!"

 

Miroku just shook his head and chuckled at the now confused demons while his wife glared at them all. "It is not a wise move to try to give orders to Kagome as she has a bad temper, especially now that she is with child."

 

The other demons had to laugh at that as it was just Hiei's luck that his onna would be a hot head like him. Hiei simply left to sit on a branch outside while he opened his jagan in an attempt to find his mate. She said not to follow her, she didn't say he couldn't keep an eye on her to make sure that she or his child weren't hurt.

The end of another chapter, and hopefully I'll be able to end it soon, though I'm not too sure of how that'll work out. Enjoy!
