Ok a few changes here
and there. Italics are thoughts and
everything like this is just “voiced words
and
normal text is just emphasis. Also I hate going back and reading my stuff b/c I
see all the grammar mistakes. But I honestly don’t give a damn I just want to
get this chapter out there. Enjoy!
Cats and Dogs
Riquo
roared warningly as Baroux kept coming closer and closer to her until he was
merely inches away from her. Riquo bared her fangs and tried to lunge at him
with whatever she could get from the chains but to no avail. Baroux, even
inches away, could not be touched. But Riquo kept at it, squirming and roaring,
as a last resort. She was desperate and Baroux knew that. Getting impatient
with her antics he tly tly slapped her in the face. Riquo’s head whipped to the
left and paused only for a second before she bounced right back roaring and
lunging.
Then Baroux pushed her back by the throat and roared at her,
“SILENCE!”
Normally, Riquo would have been having a little shit fit…but
she couldn’t even breathe. Sango could hear her all the way across the cage
choking and gasping and she closed her eyes, sending a small pray that they
would get through this alive. After a couple of minutes, Sango lifted her head
and sighed when Riquo gasped in a deep breath.
Riquo rotated her neck a little and then glared at Baroux,
her eyes glowing in the dark, “What do you want with us?” she said hoarsely.
Baroux chuckled and cupped her chin, “Such a unique creature
like you deserves better than a measly half demon,” Riquo roared, “so I think
it would only be fitting if you be our key to repopulating our clan. Granted
they will be half dog half cat, but they’ll be stronger and we will dominate
and take back the land that was once ours!”
Riquo glanced down at his hand under hhin hin and quickly
thrashed her head down, opening her mouth and gashing him with her fangs.
Baroux reeled back in pain, “Little bitch!”
“First off,” Riquo said, “I will not mate with any of the scum here you consider your comrades.
Second, if you just want me to
repopulate your damn clan, then why have you taken the human? You have made it
clear that you despise half breeds, so why use her?”
Baroux chuckled again and Sango held her breath, knowing
what he was going to say, “My men need pleasure little one. We could use her to
please our lust while you are giving birth.”
“You sick bastard!” Riquo shouted.
Baroux turned and glanced at Sango, who was shaking
terribly. He snickered and turned back to the infuriated Riquo.
“You don’t have any objections do you?”
“Fuck yea I do! Are you that stupid that you don’t think my
MATE and the rest of my friendsn’t n’t looking for us? They will find you
Baroux! And when they do, odds are, they won't be in the mood to leave any one
of you alive!”
Baroux threw his head back and laughed, “We will see little
one! We will see. Until then, sit tight, my men are getting impatient.”
And with that, he strutted away, slamming the cage door shut
with a loud bang, forcing Riquo to wince. When the ringing in her ears stopped
she scanned the area, listening for anything. She dropped her head though and
sighed when she heard Sango in hysterics.
“I’m so sorry Sango; it’s my fault we’re here. I knew how
powerful they were and I could’ve done more to fight them. You shouldn’t be
stuck here with me.”
Sango sniffed, “No, you are not to blame. We fought hard. We
were beaten. End of story. I haven’t known you long but I know you’re blunt, so
don’t beat around the bush with me and tell me exactly what we can do to get
out of here. Because I am not giving up and you sure as hell aren’t either.”
“You want me to be blunt?” Riquo said, matter-of-factly.
“Yes, I do.”
“We can’t get out of here.”

Moving as fast as possibleuyasuyasha and the
rest raced through the forest towards Kouga. Miroku rode on Kilala’s back,
Shippo sat on Ebony’s back and Inuyasha and all the cheetahs with them were
running at the speed of light. Surprisingly enough, Ebony was able to keep up
at a steady pace. They came to a fork in the road, and Inuyasha, recognizing
the area, began to turn right, towards Kouga’s den. Ebony barked and Inuyasha
stopped.
“She said we’re not going to his den. She knows exactly
where Kouga and Kagome are,” Shippo said.
Inha cha cursed under his breath again, knowing what they
were risking going to Kouga and Kagome's mating den, but he kept silent and
went anyway. They should be done by now
anyway. Especially since Kagome's a human.
So after about seven miles of running they came across a
dark entrance to a massive cave. Inuyasha stepped into the entrance of the
cave, his eyes immediately adjusting to the darkness. He sighed, seeing all the
different pathways that could be taken. This cave was almost an identical
replica of a maze and Inuyasha knew that’s how Kouga wanted it.
Inuyasha felt somng png push his leg and he looked down to
see Ebony nudging him forward with her head. Inuyasha knelt down next to her.
“You know exactly where they are in there Ebony; it would
take me forever to find them. I think it would be best if you went to go and
get them.”
Not expecting her to understand him Ebony barked and took
off into the cave, disappearing in the blackness of it. Inuyasha stood and walked
out towards the rest of the gang.
“So what now?”
“We wait Miroku. That is one massive cave and even if Ebony
knows exactly where they it might take her a while,” Inuyasha plopped down onto
a boulder next to a stream and laid back, staring into the sky, “Besides I
wouldn’t be too excited to see them if I were you.”
Shippo jumped up onto Inuyasha’s stomach and waited for a
few minutes just in case Inuyasha was going to swat him away. But Inuyasha just
sat there.
“Why shouldn’t we be excited to see them Inuyasha? I want to
see Kagome and Kouga!” Shippo said hopping up and down.
Inuyasha placed a hand on the kit’s head to stop him from
jumping, “Because, they don’t want to be interrupted.”
“What are they doing?” Shippo asked.
Inuyasha frowned and lifted his head looking at Shippo.
Shippo quickly closed his mouth, knowing he was asking too many questions.

Kouga
quickly woke up when he felt a presence nearing them. Feeling around with his
senses, he felt Ebony coming near them. He sighed, calming his nerves. Then
another presence snapped his attention. It was a demon presence…a half demon
actually and it was close…really close…too close. Kouga looked down and sniffed
at the figure in his arms.
Oh my God…
Kouga lifted Kagome's hand and gasped at seeing claws. He
examined the rest of her and nearly fainted at what he saw. Kagome had half
circle ears that were beige, one of her fangs was hanging out and she had
tearstains. This is impossible. How did
she become a demon?!
Kouga yelped as something brushed over his stomach. He
slowly lifted the animal pelt covering them and gaped. If he didn’t know any
better, he’d swear it was Riquo herself lying next to him. Kagome had a tail
with the exact same pattern of spots and black rings at the tips. There was no
doubt about it. Kagome was a cheetah half demon.
Suddenly Ebony burst through the door. Kouga quickly held up
a finger to his lips, silencing her be she she erupted in a barking fit. Ebony
sat on her haunches obediently.
“Do you want me to come with you outside?” Kouga whispered.
Ebony barked quietly. Kouga quirked an
eyebrow. Inuyasha was outside with Miroku and a bunch of Riquo’s
cheetahs.
Kouga quickly dressed himself and Kagome and followed Ebony
out of the room.
~*~*~
Inuyasha sat up quickly, catching the falling Shippo as he
felt the presence of Kouga and Kagome along with Ebony close to emerging from
the den. But…something didn’t feel right. What
the hell is that?! I thought Kouga was mating with Kagome, not a half
demon…wait…that is Kagome!
No sooner had Inuyasha finished the thought, Kouga came
through the darkness, carrying an unconscious Kagome bridal style with Ebony
trailing behind.
Before Inuyasha could say anything about Kagome, Miroku
stepped forward.
“We have a problem. Baroux and his clan kidnapped Sango and
Riquo. We need you to help us by telling us where his cave is.”
“Well that’s not our only problem,” Kouga said.
He walked past them and laid Kagome on the boulder Inuyasha
had been lying on. Miroku and Inuyasha came up behind him and examined Ka.
“Oh my God.”
Miroku leaned on his staff for support and Inuyasha covered
his mouth with his hand in disbelief.
“How did this happen? She was human when you two left,”
Inuyasha said shakily.
“I have no clue. I think it hned ned while we were—“
Kouga glanced at the curious kitsune
and cleared his throat. Inuyasha and Miroku got the point but still didn’t know
how this could possibly happen.
Miroku thought about it for a moment, “It would make sense
if maybe through the blood transfer from the scars in your necks that your
demon blood dominated hers, but then that would have to make her a half wolf demon.
Somehow she resembles Riquo.”
“Do you think it’s possible Riquo
is connected to her somehow? Cousins?
Inuyasha stared down at Kagome. For two years he’d known her
as the innocent human that had freed him and once had his heart. For some
reason, he felt like she’d been violated know that she was part demon.
“Kouga, we’ll figure this out. I promise. But at the moment,
my mate is in danger. Tell me where Baroux’s den is.”
Even though Inuyasha was being demanding, and at the moment
Kouga wasn’t in the mood for it, he kept it to himself. He knew what Baroux was
planning with Riquo and Sango and he wasn’t going to let that happen.
“I’ll tell you where it is. But first, we must take Kagome
to my den. I don’t want her near the fighting.”
Inuyasha nodded. All of them saddled up and took off.
Miroku, Shippo and Ebony riding on Kilala, the cheetahs running along with
Kouga carrying Kagome and Inuyasha running right along side him.
Please be safe my
love. I’m coming for you. Inuyasha let a solitary tear fall.
