Chapter 3 - Catching up.
A/N You might notice I use Inu's ears a lot, but the ears are just so expressive and cute.
"blah blah" = talking
blah blah = thoughts (since perspectives change I do try to make it more obvious who is thinking what but if you get confused it will follow the same rules as spoken dialogue.)
Warnings - Foul Language, some fluff
Chapter 3 – Catching Up.
She felt it changing and gasped. An irritated rumble vibrated under her hands as he heard her. “It's coming back.” Ears that had been agitatedly twitching perked up at that.
“Hell Ya! It's about damn time we caught this thing.” She was just as eager to find out what was at the other end of the feeling she was getting.
“It's heading almost directly South. Keep going Southwest and we should be able to get in front of it” Half a second later they were bounding at break neck speed over gradually falling roof-tops.
Kagome looked ahead and at the top of a bounce she spied a large park ahead. It's heading straight for that. Hopefully no one will be around, whatever we are chasing can't be human.
Aloud she said, “Stop in the park ahead, I think that's where it's headed.” Ears bobbed as he nodded. Suddenly he leaped off a roof and down into the street. She grabbed tighter trying to keep in a strangled yelp.
“What... What are you doing? We'll be seen.”
“By humans. Whatever is ahead it's definitely not human. We've been chasing it across half the city, let's not end up as the ones getting chased when we have no idea what it is.” It was her turn to nod as they passed through traffic as a red and green blur followed by a short gust of wind.
It didn't take them long to hit the green expanse of the park. Inuyasha looked around.
“This looks almost normal.” He looked around. “But the grass is too short and everywhere smells like people and dog piss.” Despite what he said his shoulders relaxed just a bit and Kagome could tell he was enjoying the scenery.
Kagome raised an eyebrow. I never thought to bring him to the park... but I bet he'd never behave. She giggled at an image of Inuyasha scowling on a leash when suddenly they stopped and she nearly flew off his back.
“Aaaa!” Before she could fall completely off strong arms caught her and held her close.
“Keh! Pay attention, and what's so funny anyway?”
Held against his warm shoulder she giggled again. “Nothing,” His eyebrow went up as he looked at her almost nose to nose. Noticing the closeness they both blushed and Kagome squirmed to be put down.
“Why'd you stop so suddenly?” She looked in the direction their target was. “It's close.” He followed her gaze and nodded. He jumped to the ground and put her down.
“Is it staying in one spot?” She nodded. “Then lets go in slow and quiet.”
She grabbed for her bow and realized that she didn't have it. Damn, I left it back in Kaede's hut. She quietly cursed and Inuyasha looked back. “I forgot my bow.”
He grunted. “Just stay back and let me handle the fighting for once.” She sighed and began to walk.
They moved through the bushes for a few minutes. Inuyasha's ears were following every sound. They were moving steadily towards whatever she was sensing when Inuyasha stiffened and drew the Tetsusaiga.
“I can smell it” His nose was slightly raised and he took another sniff. “The smell is... not human or demon.” Confused she simply nodded and they walked further in.
It moved, slowly but away from them. She tapped Inuyasha, “It's moving again but slowly.”
“It won't get away. I have the scent now.” He knelt down to let her on his back but she shook her head.
“Lets walk normally, I think it's on the ground now.” She grabbed his arm and started walking. Inuyasha huffed but allowed himself to be guided out onto the open path in the park.
They walked into the sun and Kagome looked around. What ever felt like the jewel was still close. Inuyasha moved, pulling her towards a food cart. Nodding to herself she walked towards it and they got in line.
It was a good look out place. She was surprised he thought of it. They could stand still and look around without seeming suspicious. She didn't see anything though. Inuyasha bent down.
“It's in front of us...somewhere... and now there's two strange scents.” Kagome looked forward in line.
“I don't see it...”
“Keh, it's up there.”
“What find of food is the fender selling? I can't tell from back here.” Inuyasha sniffed then made a strange face.
“Tempura.” Kagome wondered at that face.
“Don't you like tempura?”
“Not really, unless it's meat. This guys only got carrots and his food stinks up the place.” Kagome looked up the line and then back.
“You can't tell who it is?”
“Keh, not till they leave the line.”
The line moved forward, Kagome watched the couple walk off with their food and looked at Inuyasha. He shook his head and they both focused on the next people to approach the cart. They watched a small group of elementary kids walk off. Another shake. A jogger with several dogs. Shake.
Somehow Kagome's hands had drifted and she was holding onto Inuyasha's arm again. The next in line was a single person so Kagome wasn't paying attention when there was a commotion at the cart. Inuyasha was though, and a small growl slipped out alerting her.
“What's going on?” She looked ahead and saw 3-4 people forward in line rushing the cart.
“They are mobbing the cart.”
“What!? Lets go break it up.” She pulled forward but he held back.
“We'll loose the scent” She looked at him.
“You'll be closer to the scent, and we have to help that man.” She pulled forward again and this time he went with her.
When they got up there Kagome let go of his arm and started yelling.
“Hey, knock it off! Leave the poor man alone.” One of them grabbed her and then suddenly felt very sleepy, probably owing to the fist sized knot on the back of his head. Inuyasha nodded to her.
“Be careful Kagome.” She ignored him and started pulling on one man that was on top of the vender.
“Let go!”
“No, I need that money! Let me go you greedy bitch!” Kagome looked at Inuyasha and the man was then ripped off the vender.
The front of the vender's vest was ripped open and large bills spilled out. Suddenly there were many more people running towards them. Inuyasha stepped in front of the approaching crowd and growled loud enough to stop them all. Confused by the seemingly crazed man in a strange red outfit, the crowd balked.
Kagome looked at the vender. “Hurry put it away before they charge again.” He looked at her and then started pushing the money into an empty vegetable bag. Kagome tried to help but he glared at her. She sighed and then looked at the crowd again.
And she noticed that the jewel was getting further away. “It's moving Inuyasha.”
“Keh, I told you so.” A police officer was approaching. “Come on we better move.”
“Wait!” The vender pushed a bag into Kagome's hand. “Thank you.”
“Keh, let's go Kagome.” She nodded her thanks to the man then ran to Inuyasha.
“That way.” she pointed and then pulled him on.
