"Inu Yasha! Behind you!" Kagome yelled as a huge worm demon snuck up behind him. The group was attacked by a colony of the stupid things, and they were currently trying to defeat them all. The three biggest of them had a Jewel Shard each. They had defeated Naraku a month or so ago, but they were still missing a quarter of the Jewel, even after finding all of his Shards.
"Just aim for those Shards!" Inu Yasha yelled back at her after ripping the weaker worm to pieces. Sango, Mirouku, and Kirara were all fighting off the weaker demons while Inu Yasha and Kagome faced the three stronger ones. Kagome was trying to get a clear shot with her arrows at the spot where the Jewels were. Suddenly, Kagome let an arrow loose and it struck the biggest worm in the head and traveled down its body, completely destroying it. After seeing this happen, the demons without the Shards took off, leaving the other two there. Inu Yasha quickly destroyed the other two. Kagome got the three Shards easily. She placed them in the crack in the pink/purple gem.
"How many Shards do you think there are?" Sango asked as she, Mirouku, Shippou, and Kirara walked up to Inu Yasha and Kagome.
"Well, we know Kouga has two, and Kohaku still has his. Those are the only ones we know about." Kagome said, thinking about her allies and enemies. "That still leaves an eighth of it missing. Luckily, Naraku didn't find them all. Or we'd still be fighting him."
"Yeah right! We'd have beaten him sooner than we did if you hadn't got in my way!" The others just sighed before heading back to their camp. Over the past few years, the gang had become bored from hearing Kagome and Inu Yasha argue, mostly over something he said or did.
"Oh please! If I hadn't been there to disable his regenerative powers, you couldn't have beat him."
"Take all the credit why don't you! If I hadn't sliced him in half in the first place. . . ."
"We wouldn't have had to battle two Narakus before I found the Jewel and took it. If I hadn't taken the Jewel from him, you wouldn't have stood a chance against him!" Kagome interrupted Inu Yasha. Lately, she had been yelling at him more and more and sitting him less and less.
"Right. If you hadn't kept shooting him with those arrows and keeping him focused on you instead of me, I would've finished him sooner.
"Drop it, would ya? I was trying to be nice today. I was thinking about taking that necklace off you! But on second thought, SIT!" Inu Yasha was lying flat on the forest while Kagome was storming back to the camp.
When Kagome got back to camp, she didn't say a word. She looked calm, and acted it too. She just picked up her bag and Shippo and left. She wasn't heading toward the well, but they weren't worried about her. If she got into trouble, Shippou would come find Inu Yasha and he would rush off to save her, as usual. Inu Yasha came back half an hour later, in a very grumpy mood. The others decided not to even say anything to him.
'Stupid girl. At least she didn't go home; she took Shippou with her. Unless she's trying to take him with her. Oh well. Good riddance! She'll come back in a couple of days and then we'll start looking for the other Shards. Why am I still thinking about her though?' Inu Yasha tried desperately to get his thought off Kagome but it didn't work.
End Chapter
Ok. This is just a sample of a new story I've worked up. I'll leave it up for a week. I might update it after that, or I might take it down. Thanks to everyone who is reading this and has read my previous unsuccessful stories.
Disclaimer for all chapters: I do not own Inu Yasha. I own a few original characters, character designs, and the plot. Nothing else!
Also, because of way of uploading chapters, I have lost my scene changers and my tabs. So, I will say that the chapter is over when its over, and a single line is a scene changer.
I have looked this chapter over several times, and I have spell checked it twice. Please tell me if there are any mistakes and constructive critisim is welcomed.
