Chapter Seven: The Truth Finally Revealed
It was getting really late now and Inuyasha was walking back to Kagome's house in the dark. Damn his poor human vision!
What would Koga do now that he new Inuyasha was here? He wouldn't tell Kagome, would he? Whatever the wolf demon did, it probably wouldn't be good…
Inuyasha walked up the stone steps and was bathed in light when Kagome opened the front door to her house. Squinting from the brightness of the light, Inuyasha could barely make out the silhouette of Koga behind Kagome and it was probably safe to say he had told her Inu's true identity.
"Inuyasha! Sit!" Kagome ordered.
The weight in Inuyasha's necklace forced him into the ground. "GYAH! Damn it…"
"So it's true!" Kagome exclaimed in a hurt voice. "You've been lying to me this whole time, Inuyasha…"
Lifting himself off the ground, Inuyasha stomped over to the doorway. "It's all Hojo's fault! And Miroku's fault, too!"
"Oh, just blame Hojo and Miroku because nothing is ever your fault!" Kagome yelled sarcastically.
"It's all their fault!" Inuyasha barked. "Hojo was lying to you because he's stupid and then he cut my hair!" The angry half demon pulled on his shoulder length black hair to prove his point. "And it's Miroku's fault for getting me into this mess in the first place!"
"What do you mean?" Kagome asked quietly while Koga looked around her house curiously.
Inuyasha turned his back on Kagome and lifted up his shirt to reveal the scroll Miroku had placed on his back, which seeped through his clothes onto his very skin. Kagome blushed at seeing Inuyasha taking his shirt partially off but snapped out of it quickly.
"What the hell is that?" Koga asked, trying to keep himself from laughing at Inuyasha.
"Miroku put this damn scroll on me to drain me of all of my demon powers and the only one who can remove it is Kagome." Inuyasha snarled at the laughing Koga.
"Is that so?" Kagome demanded.
"Yeah, are you deaf or something, Kagome?" Inuyasha muttered.
"Fine then…" The teenage girl stepped closer to Inuyasha and ripped off the scroll in one swift moment that left Inuyasha feeling as if she ripped duck tape off his back… which kind of hurts. But his hair changed rapidly to pure white and grew the full length that it once was. The soft white ears appeared on top of his head, replacing the useless human ones. He was now his normal half-demon self. "Happy now?! So go back to the feudal era if you want, you selfish jerk!"
Inuyasha winced at Kagome's words and rounded on her. "If I'm going then I'm hauling you with me!" The half demon's expression softened along with his tone. "You remember what I said in the restaurant, right?" He paused while Kagome's face turned a bright red. "I really meant it Kagome…"
"You make me sick… Kagome is mine!" Koga snarled.
Inuyasha completely ignored Koga and continued talking to Kagome. "I really meant it… Please come back with me. We can find the remaining shards of the Shikon no Tama and if it pleases you… I will use it to become fully human."
Words could not describe what was running through Kagome's mind. On the inside she was so happy that Inuyasha would make such a sacrifice for her. "All right Inuyasha…" Kagome smiled.
"Hah! In your face Koga!" Inuyasha laughed and stuck his tongue out at the wolf demon.
The smile vanished from Kagome's face, replaced by a look of utmost loathing. "INUYASHA!!!!!"
……………
Inuyasha stood just outside of the building with the old well in it, clad in his normal red robes, waiting for Kagome impatiently.
"Kagome, hurry up!" Inuyasha complained.
"Hold on, Inuyasha!" Kagome responded from not too far away.
"Now Kagome, if you're going to stay in the feudal era the rest of your life you should wear the proper clothes of a priestess." Kagome's grandfather pointed out.
"The rest of your life…?" Inuyasha blinked in confusion. "Does he mean…?"
"Sure, whatever grandpa, I have to go now!" Kagome hollered and bound into Inuyasha's sight with her overly large backpack and priestess robes on. "Okay, I'm ready to go, Inuyasha. Where's Koga?"
The half dog demon jerked his thumb at the tied up and gagged wolf demon propped up against the well and looking very displeased with his position. "I didn't kill him like you asked me to." Inuyasha grumbled.
"I wonder just how he was able to travel through the well?" Kagome wondered and stepped closer to the well.
"Who cares and what does it matter?" Inuyasha muttered, picking up Koga by the scruff of the neck and tossing him in the well first. "By the way…" The half demon turned to face the black-haired girl before him. "What was your grandfather talking about?"
She turned away shyly with a small smile placed on her lips. "Well… I'm coming back to the feudal era. But this time I'm staying for real and I'll only come back when I need something or to visit my family."
"You're serious?!" The half demon demanded in surprise and Kagome nodded. Inuyasha didn't know what to say now… all he knew was that he was glad Kagome was coming back, and for good.
Later that evening, Kagome and Inuyasha sat on a hill overlooking Kaede's village watching the sunset. The black-haired girl leaned against Inuyasha, comfortably dozing from a long hard day of searching for the Shikon no Tama shards.
"I think you should have gone a little easier on Miroku." Kagome mumbled.
Snorting in contempt, Inuyasha shook his head. "He deserved it. Besides, Kaede says he'll be able to move again in about a week."
"Inuyasha…?"
"Hm?"
Kagome snuggled closer to Inuyasha. "Say it to me again."
Sighing, Inuyasha complained, "How many times do I have to say it? I've been saying it all day!"
"Please?" Kagome begged.
"Feh… I love you…" Inuyasha avoided Kagome's eyes and stared into the setting sun.
"Inuyasha…"
"Now what?" The half demon looked down at Kagome with a slightly irritated look.
"I love you, too." Kagome smiled and she leaned into Inuyasha and kissed him softly.
"Feh, you call that a kiss?" Inuyasha snorted.
Getting to her feet angrily, Kagome shouted, "Yes! You think you can do better?!"
"Of course I can." Inuyasha smirked and rose to his feet as well, holding Kagome in his arms and kissed her passionately for a long time.
It was long after the sun had set when the two of them finally returned to the village and were greeted by their friends who then threw a party for Kagome's decision to stay forever. And despite the frequent arguments between the priestess and her half demon, they were happy to be in each other's company, and would feel this way for the rest of their lives…
