A/N

Chapter 8

The moon was bright this evening, there was no cloud in the sky. All you can hear was the restlessness of trees that danced in the warm summer breeze.
Miroku walked over to Sango and sat next to her. She looked alone, tired and scared so he did the only thing natural and started to caress her back. It did not bother her much and took great comfort in his touch. “I cant believe this is all happening to her Miroku, and so fast.” She started crying.

Miroku pulled her to his chest. “I didn’t know what to say to her, for there was nothing to say. I only knew to hold her and let her feel my love as I embraced her in my arms.” He thought quietly. They would stay like this for the rest of the night.

Inuyasha was scared his heart was racing a mile a minute. The touch of her hand caressing his face was soothing but still he did not know if she was ready for this. Her wounds were still fresh; and could still see the bruising on her face from where Kouga had hit her. “Damn that fucking wolf, how dare he do this to her.” He growled.

Kagome sensed his anger; she could feel his tension and started getting nervous. “What do I do?” looking into his golden eyes. Without thinking, she reached up and kissed him. Inuyasha froze, he felt her soft supple lips touching his begging him to open up and let her consume his mouth. His arms embraced her and closed his eyes to show her how much he loved her and gave into the kiss. It was sweet and passionate and put him at utter ease. His hands wanted to feel her more to consume her body, but he held back when she suddenly stopped kissing him. She looked into his eyes as he returned the gaze back, they both felt warm all over and didn’t want to stop there, but she was afraid and so was he. “ It has only been a day in a half since the rape occurred, and here I am kissing him.” She blushed while taking in that mental note. “What I am I doing?” She kept telling herself. Before Inuyasha could say anything, she stood from his lap.

“She looks likes she getting ready to run, wait she’s in no condition to go anywhere.” He got up to incase that was what she was thinking of doing.

“I am sorry Inuyasha I can’t do this right now.” Was all she said, while turning to go back in the direction of the camp? Without any warning, she was back in his arms too be carried back to the rest of the group.

When they returned to the camp only to find Sango in Miroku’s arms fast asleep. Inuyasha laid her down in the sleeping bag, and tucked her in. She rolled over and started crying. He did not want to leave her know not in this condition. He wanted to comfort her, take away her pain and hoped that she would be able to trust a man touching her again. He took his hand determined to wipe away the tears and told her. “Its ok, I am here for you and I don’t plan on leaving you in this state I will lay next to you until you fall asleep.” Then he kissed her forehead and placed his hands over her waist, anything to try to comfort her. She had finally stopped crying, her eyes where swollen and finally fell asleep.

“ I know you kissed him Kagome, you think that he could take away this claim.” Kouga said with an evil grin. “You are mine, and will die to be with me forever, remember this Kagome just because I am dead we still have a bond I claimed you. You will honor that and stop seeing mutt face.”

“No your not here, your dead and cannot hurt me anymore!” she demanded.

Kouga started laughing and then came after her in a flash he had her by the throat and lifted her off the ground, she began kicking and trying to let out a scream.

“You will not defy me mate, or I will have to punish you some more.” He growled in a satisfied voice as he saw her submit in his arms. “That’s better isn’t love.”

“No Kouga its not!” Kagome said with an evil grin. Just then, she kicked Kouga in between his legs and he let her go, she took off running. She did not know where she was going everything around her was so black, but she did not stop she used all her human speed to try to outrun the demon who was still hunched over. She wanted to run and find Inuyasha but he was no were around.

“Damn fucking bitch she is going to pay for what she did, and I am going to enjoy every minute of it.” He chuckled then took off after the girl. He finally caught up with her, she was out of breath; and was looking at him with a death glare.

He came up to her then slashed his claws over her face; she could feel the pain of the oncoming attack and the blood seeping out of her new wound. Throwing her on the ground, he began slashing her arms and legs.

She started screaming. “Inuyasha!”

Inuyasha woke up with a violent jerk; he looked over at Kagome and saw her kicking and fighting. He also smelled fresh blood on her. “What the fuck?” was all he could say. He then started shaking her “Kagome wake up, come on please wake up.” As he desperately tried to wake her up, he saw blood on her face and then looked over and found new bruises. “Miroku!” He screamed. “Get up and get over here.

The monk woke up only to see a violently jerking Kagome. He ran over to them and saw the slashes in her face and her new bruising.

Just then, she screamed. “Inuyasha! Please help me.”

Inuyasha went into a panic mode for he did everything he could to wake her up but to no avail, she did not wake up.

“Inuyasha I have an idea, bring her to the lake and dunk her in she might wake up then.” Miroku said.

He lifted her up while taking a couple of blows from the frantic miko, and ran over the cold lake and dunked her in and then brought her back up. It worked she woke up hysterical and still punching and kicking. “Kagome are you ok?” He said softly and still a little confused.

“Inuyasha? She slowly opened her eyes only to see a set of golden ones gazing back at her. She pulled herself closer to him only to cry into his chest.

Miroku started gathering more wood to add to the fire. He knew that they would both be cold and did not want to make Kagome any sicker that she already was. Sango woke up only to find her alone, she opened her eyes and began searching around the area, and she saw Miroku building a fire and approached him. “What’s the matter did something happen?”

“Yes Kagome had a nightmare, but her dreams seem real and the weird thing about it was that she had new wounds on her face.” He acknowledged.

Before they could continue the conversation Inuyasha rushed by them and wanted to remove her clothing to get her into a dry sleeping bag. He did not care who was there the only thing he wanted to do was protect his Kagome. Miroku and Sango rushed over to get some more sleeping bags that Kagome brought over from her era.

Kagome was still clinging into his chest and was still crying she did not want to let go; he was her protector and did not want to leave afraid that Kouga would come back and finish what he started. “She had to know that Kouga was dead because Inuyasha killed him so why did it seem so real?” she thought trying to dig deeper in his chest.

Inuyasha gasped when he felt her digging into his chest deeper. “What happened Kagome?” he said calmly watching her escape into him. He grabbed her arms trying to pry her off. He normally would not mind but he had to get his wet robe off her and get her warm. However, the minute he touched her arms she began screaming in pain. He froze and began sniffing her, all he could smell was blood, he knew of the blood that she had on her face, but there was still more coming off her body.

“Kagome I need to take off this robe and get you warmed up please let me do this.” He sadly said. “There is no one here to hurt you I wont let them!” He also needed to know about her new wounds he smelled.

Kagome looked up at him with her tear drawn eyes and stood up with protest for she knew what that dream was and it was too real she could still feel the sting of the fresh wounds on her face and the rest of her body. “No! I will do it myself.” She growled. He did not like her answer and said again. “Kagome you need to be warmed up or your fever will return.” He said while trying to walk up to her.

“Stay away from me now!” as she started backing up and continued, “If you come near me he will know and hurt me more, he will smell you on me and will hurt me.”

He could see panic form in her eyes and heard her heartbeat faster. “Who will hurt you Kagome? Inuyasha is here and we will not let anything happen to you.” Miroku said seeing all that was going on. He did not understand either.

Sango decided it was best to intervene and approached Kagome. “Kagome, will you let me help you?” she said in a soft concerned voice.

Kagome looked at her and said. “No! He will hurt me, he will kill me.”

“Who will Kagome, who will hurt you and kill you?” Sango said with a confused look on her face.

Kagome sighed since she could not hide from her friends or Inuyasha in that matter and decided best to tell them. “Kouga.” Was all she could say and started crying again?

“That’s impossible I killed him!” Inuyasha started growling again this time his eyes went from a golden color to a crimson red, his demon side was fighting to get out and called for blood, wolfs blood to be exact he didn’t care if he wiped out that whole pack.

“Inuyasha! Snap out of it, this is not helping the situation if you let your demon side come out now.” Miroku tried pleading with him.

Inuyasha heard him. “He’s right we will have our revenge later this is not the time our Kagome needs us.” He said while fighting with his demon side in his head. His demon side agreed with him and he started going back to his normal state.

Kagome could not help but feel like this was all her fault she trusted Kouga. Although she was now stuck, with the man who had raped her and who was now controlling the situation in her dreams? She felt her knees buckle from all the stress and emotional strain and collapsed on the ground. The darkness consumed her once again. The three of them rushed over to see if she was ok. She had fainted and this was the best time to look her over and get her out of the wet clothes.

Inuyasha did not care that the others were around for he new that they were all concerned and were curious. He gently removed his fire rat robe off her. They gasped when a new set of claw marks ran over her arms, legs and stomach, they were deep and continued bleeding. Inuyasha started licking up the blood, trying hard not to be sick with disgust. Sango ran over to the lake with a towel she got out of Kagome’s book bag. She dunked the towel into the lake trying to absorb as much of the water the towel would take she then ran over to her friend and began wiping the blood from her legs and Miroku started to make more mulch out of the remaining flowers. He started putting the paste on her shoulder and arms, not even looking at the naked girl in front of him, just trying to help heal her wounds also, he then handed the mixture to Sango and she began putting the paste on her stomach and legs. Inuyasha came back with a sleeping bag, covered her up once again, and put the remaining paste on her cheek. Satisfied with all their help he lifted her up into his lap cradling her and began crying. It was going to be a long night.
