Chapter 4: New Moon, New Problems

Lowen chuckled and Kouga grinned, “Oh it is ok honey.” Lowen stated picking Inuyasha up “I did not mean it, it is just my joke with Kouga little one. I am not really mad.” She added realizing she might have scared him.

“You promise” Inuyasha asked looking up at Lowen.

“Yes I promise” Lowen replied kissing the half inu on the top of his head right between his ears.

“Um, then can we eat now?” the hanyu asked pleadingly as his stomach growled loudly.

Lowen laughed “yes we can eat” she replied as she sat him down and the three of them made their way inside.


FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF Two Weeks Later FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Kouga yawned and gently shook his shatei when he noticed the half inu was still asleep.

“Le’e me be” Inuyasha protested sounding annoyed at having been disturbed from his sleep.

Kouga frowned, he had never protested before. He sniffed at the air, especially when the smell of food was so great in the air. He prodded the inu again a little harder this time “Come on time to get up. The morning meal is ready, and if we don’t get up Reidou and Daifu will come after us; and Daifu will not be happy about that.” He added when the hanyu just grumbled again.

“I said leave me be” Inuyasha replied rolling over so that he was no longer sleeping on Kouga’s chest and so that he was facing away from the ookami.

“Are you ok? Do you not feel well?” Kouga asked trying to figure out the other’s odd behavior.

“I am fine” Inuyasha replied sounding more annoyed by the moment.

Kouga sighed and decided to see what Lowen had to say. So he stood up and made his way out to where she and Jugon were already eating.

“Where is your shatei?” Lowen asked concerned.

“He is trying to go back to sleep. He sounded angry at me for waking him up. I asked him if he was feeling well and he /said/ he was fine.” Kouga replied watching Lowen with a slightly confused look.

Lowen frowned “Well if he wants to sleep I suppose we’ll just let him for now. When he wakes up he is not getting his meal though, he either eats with us or waits.”

Kouga nodded, if she said it was ok then it was ok. After finishing his food he trekked back to his room for the rest of his clothing as all he had on was his skirt, and near as he could tell his shatei was still sleeping so he just left him be and headed out to play with his friends. When they inquired about the half inu he just told them that his shatei was not feeling well so his Reidou had said he could sleep all he wanted.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Kouga continued to worry about his shatei the rest of the day, what if it was something bad? What if he was really sick? He got back to their den early expecting to see Inuyasha at the table waiting for him or something, but he wasn’t. Instead when he ventured into his room he found the hanyu right where he had left him that morning or at least it appeared that way. He sighed and went back out to his waiting parents, “He is still asleep. Are you sure he is ok?” he asked Lowen turning his gaze to her.

“I’m sure he will be fine son, now you just finish eating. The sun is nearly down and you need to be getting to bed soon.” Lowen replied.

Kouga nodded and quickly finished his food before heading into his room. His first thought when he scanned the room was ok nothing new here. Then it hit him…

Inuyasha! Where was he? He scanned the room again, this time taking in the missing covers on his bed and then said covers huddled in his usual sleeping corner. He slowly made his way to the huddled covers, he wasn’t sure who was under there, as he suddenly caught the sent of a ningen. Who was in his room? And /how/ they gotten past him and his parents?

Once he was close enough he grabbed the covers and tugged reviling a ningen boy. That was not what surprised him though, what got him was that the ningen smelled like his shatei and like a ningen and that he was even in his clothes. The problem was that his hair was black as midnight, and when he looked up the eyes they were not the golden amber of his shatei they were a dark brown color that closely matched the mud outside the den. “Who are you? What did you do with my shatei? How did you get in my room?” he asked not giving the other a chance to answer between questions.

Inuyasha blinked a couple of times. Shatei? Kouga had just called him shatei, and he was worrying about him? This really was his family then and Kouga really cared. “I /am/ Inuyasha. It just that when there is no moon I turn like this.” He replied turning his gaze from the ookami when he started to growl.

“Now why should I believe that, can you prove it Ningen?” Kouga growled at the black haired boy. That could not be his shatei, he was a half ningen not a full ningen, and his hair was not black it was silver…Speaking of hair this boy’s ears were even in the wrong place, they were not dog ears buried atop his head in his hair, they were a ningen’s ears.

“Because I told you. I turn full ningen when there is no moon. I will be back to normal when the sun comes up again.” Inuyasha replied but quickly cast about for more when he noticed the doubt on Kouga’s face. “Who else knows that you knew me for a week before Lowen followed you and found me? Or that we played tag every day that week?” he quickly added, hoping to at least convince him not tell Lowen and Jugon about his problem.

Kouga studied the ningen and considered his answers, well he didn’t think any one else but him and Inuyasha knew about that, but still. He squatted down to where he was on the balls on his feet with the tips on his fingers on the ground in front of his feet to keep him balanced. He studied the other boy for a long moment, deciding weather he was going to believe him or not.

He locked his gaze on the other boy’s considering, and then suddenly he felt /something/. He didn’t understand exactly what he was feeling, but it was odd, he /knew/ that the ningen was telling the truth. This black haired, brown eyed, boy was his silver haired golden amber eyed half inu shatei. “I believe you.” He finally replied “So how long has this happened? And why does it happen?” he asked curious about the change now that he believed the other boy.

Inuyasha let out the breath he didn’t realize he had been holding and smiled, good Kouga believed him. “It has been happening for as long as I can remember. As for why it happens though, that I don’t know. My Reidou and I could not figure out before she died, and my Daifu was not exactly there enough that I could ask before he was killed.” He replied with a shrug.

Kouga nodded and allowed himself to fall backwards onto his butt. “So you said you’ll go back to normal when the sun comes back up?” he asked cocking his head to the side.

Inuyasha nodded “Yes every other time that’s how it has been. When the sun goes down I turn like this.” He said motioning to himself. “Then when the sun comes back up I turn back to normal.” He added before watching the other boy for a moment. “Do ya..” he paused for a moment “..do ya have ta tell Lowen and Jugon?” he asked.

Kouga turned his head to the opposite side considering. This really was something he should tell his parents, but Inuyasha really seemed to not want them to know. Kouga didn’t know what to do. Usually he would go to his parents if he didn’t know, or sometimes his friends; But if he didn’t want their Reidou and Daifu to know then he definitely wouldn’t want their miuchi to know. So what to do.

They sat in silence for a long time: Kouga debating on what he was going to do; Inuyasha worrying that Kouga was going to tell on him. By the time Kouga finally reached his decision the sun had been down for a while now and he knew that their oya would be going to bed soon, or at least they would have been. The ookami shook his head “No I have to tell them.” He said “They are our Reidou and Daifu they need to know so they can watch over us better. If they don’t know about this then they could send you out when there was supposed to be no moon and you could be hurt.” He quickly added when he saw the look on Inuyasha’s face.

Inuyasha sat for several long moments trying to find a protest, but fail. Finally he nodded dropping his head in defeat. “If we have to.” He replied.

“You stay here. I’ll bring them here” Kouga replied standing up and heading for the door turning back only when he heard his shatei speak.

“Are they going to hate me now?” Inuyasha said barely above a mumble.

“Never.” Kouga replied continuing out the door.

Inuyasha stared at the door, he was waiting on the yelling, the screaming, the promises to throw him out of his new home. But they never came, instead when the door opened Kouga just came back over to him and sat down beside him with a sigh.

“Well they were not happy I was still up.” Kouga said with a smile trying to ease the tension he could almost feel rolling off Inuyasha. He hadn’t told them anything all he had said was that his shatei wanted to speak to them. Suddenly the door opened again their oya came in searching him out in his corner.

“Now what have you both up so late?” Lowen asked looking at Kouga.

Inuyasha had pulled the fur covers back over himself the second he hear the door open and was trying his best to hide behind Kouga. What if they sent him away? What if they took him to the alpha and the alpha killed him or something. What if…

Inuyasha’s thoughts were cut off as Kouga pulled the covers off of him. “This” he replied to his Reidou.

“What the Fuck?” “Oh my.” Came Jugon and Lowen’s simultaneous replies.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
