A/N: Okay gomen nasai everyone. This took a long time to get done, and
unfortunately not due to length. I've been backed up with school, work,
and bloody Christmas and haven't had to much extra time. Not to mention I
have other hobbies, I have to finish this big arse drawing of Sharon Tate
I'm doing for a friend, I also introduced myself to pastels. Warning
shameless self promotion: Some of my older artworks are here
www.geocities.com/v_babe_13/ , Please note some of those go back to when I
was 13 so pretty crappy oh yeah there is some other pics there that are
noteably screen caps from Inuyasha.
P.S. I would like to apologize for the 10 reviews thing. I haven't written many fics and I figured if no one was reading why bother. Now I've come to like this story and have many ideas for it so I'm just writing it for myself.
Chapter IV If you don't comply I can always knock you unconscious
Previously..
"If you want to take down your step father, I can help you."
"What? How can you.. why would you?" Kagome managed to utter.
"You see we share the same hate, the same sorrow, the same goal."
"And what's that?" Kagome acted.
"To exact revenge against the one who murdered our fathers. King Alexander Van Barrant!"
Kagome just laid on her velvet sheets just staring up and the violet ceiling. 'It's funny' she thought 'This room hasn't changed in years but this is the first time I've noticed the ceiling is purple'. Her thoughts seemed so stupid and pointless. All these years she grew up to be a princess, sixteen years leading this life style and it only took a 5-minute speech for me to give it all up. Despite her attempts to try to think about her escape, her thoughts kept drifting back to the fact she had known nothing. How was it he knew all this and she didn't?
Him. Inuyasha, the so-called Yasha Kamura. Prince my ass. The conversation was still fresh in her mind.
(Flash Back)
Kagome at the current moment was doing a fairly good impression of a fish. Inuyasha who had been wearing a serious and calm expression moments ago was now fighting to keep his laughter under control.
Kagome snapped out of her shock and assumed the ready for a verbal sparring match. "What the hell! Is this some kind of joke to you? That was low, to make jokes about my fathers death. How dare you!" What followed next all seemed to happen in a blur.
Kagome rushed at Inuyasha who was still recovering from his laughter. Flinging herself forward she began hitting him with her tiny fist, and crying all at once. Inuyasha laughed even harder as he attempted to grab her wrists. Unfortunately for the two of them Inuyasha happened to be standing by the stairs, and down they went. Tumbling down alternating between who was hitting the floor and who was on top. This painful tumble of limbs continued for a little while longer before they hit the bottom of the stairs in a painful thump.
Wincing from the pain in his sides and back Inuyasha spoke " Princess, It's not a joke.. It's just that your face.it resembled that of a fish, at the time.". Kagome's eyes took on a look of clarity and understanding. NO sooner had it appeared it was once again replaced with anger.
"Fish? FISH!!!!" Kagome screeched at the top of her lungs
(End Flash Back)
After that, Inuyasha simply told her that he come to her room at midnight so they could discuss some things. So here she sat idly waiting for the so- called prince to show.
Moments later Kagome heard what sounded like knocking. She rose from her bed and hurried to the door. Flinging it open with a battle ready expression on her face. Noting, that's exactly what she found when the door was opened.
Tap, Tap, Tap
Kagome turned her gaze from the empty hallway to the balcony window. Through the window she saw two glowing, yellow, eyes staring at directly at her. In typical rich girl fashion she did what they all do best, she screamed.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
All at once Kagome screamed the glass shattered and she was taken to the floor by a shadowed male form. Kagome could make out a clawed hand that was draped over her mouth, and she couldn't help the tears that welled in her eyes. Brave as she was, she had lived a sheltered life not prepared for anything like this. Overwhelming fear that coursed through her, and all she could think was I'm going die. The only hope she was clinging to was that Inuyasha would come like he promised.
"Shhhh, I'm not going to hurt you wench." The voice was familiar and gentle despite the insult it added. Kagome's body started to relax and she could feel the fear slowly fading away. into anger. As her tears subsided she could feel the blooding pumping away through her body. Using all her strength she pushed Inuyasha off of her. Pushing away the uneasy feeling she felt, due to the factor of clawed hands and yellow eyes, she pulled back and punched him square in the face.
"OWWWW!! Damn that hurt, you rotten little ... Arrggghhh!! You scared me half to death!" she yelled glaring at Inuyasha's annoyed expression.
"O! Shut your yap wench, or you'll attract the guards!!" Inuyasha said deadpan.
Kagome snapped out of her anger, and began to take in his appearance. The formal clothes he wore before were now gone, replaced by a blood red kimono. The jet black locks he'd had were now white, his eyes golden rod. She gasped when she saw the two dog-ears that sat atop his head. Before Inuyasha could utter an explanation, he felt two small hands feeling his ears.
"Hey stop that!" he said swatting at her hands as though they were pesky flies. Kagome stepped back from him rubbing her chin with one hand as though in deep thought.
"So you're a dog demon, I see." Kagome said after several moments.
"1/2 demon bitch. If you hadn't noticed I came in looking human." He snarled at her. Kagome got a sour look on her face from that last comment.
"Baka!! You need to tell me the truth of all this!!" Kagome screamed at him. Inuyasha sighed in exasperation.
"I figured you would say something to that extent." As an after thought adding, "Bitch". "My real name is Inuyasha, my father was the Demon Lord of the western lands, and my mother was a human. That information isn't necessary, what you need to know is the why. My half-brother and I are part of a rebellion against the king, your step father." Inuyasha paused for just a moment, and then continued. "The King had turned many demons and humans against my father. They used me and my mother as leverage since she was only human and me but the age of 6. My father sacrificed himself for our safety, but it was fro not. After slaughtering him, they chased down my mother and me. I survived though my mother did not and went to find my brother. A priestess of the name Kaede raised us. Once I was old enough to truly understand I decided to exact my revenge. When I heard that he had taken over this Kingdom so soon after the death of its king. Well I knew this was my chance. Princess you are of value to him. Without you he cannot create alliance by marriage, especially to a powerful kingdom."
"I've done fine keeping him from alliances on my own, thank you very much." Kagome huffed out, then smiling in her small victory. That smile was soon wiped from her face. All of a sudden her back was pressed against the wall. Inuaysha stood in front of her, his arms on the wall to each side of her head, supporting him. He was so close to her face she could feel his breath on her skin.
"How long do you think that'll last little girl? He is growing tired and soon he'll probably resort to violence. You think if you throw away a chance for a powerful ally he won't beat you. This man has no qualms about taking out those in his way. The only reason he probably hasn't raped you is your virginity holds your value. No King, Prince, or Lord wants a broken wife, and so it keeps you safe."
Kagome could feel the prick of tears at the back of her eyes. She never thought of things like that. She always thought she had the upper hand, that he wouldn't or couldn't touch her. She felt so small now, with this half demon looking into her eyes, spouting out undeniable truths. She was so blind, despite the fact her mind told her that he was wrong, her heart knew it to be the truth.
Despite her efforts she broke, she let the tears run free, as she buried herself into Inuyasha's robes. Inuyasha was stunned; he didn't know what to do. No woman no person had ever asked comfort of him. Unsure of himself he lightly patted he back a couple times as she cried. Through he sobs Inuyasha could make out a few words that were muffled in his clothing.
"I*Sob*Sob*Sob* it's true*Sob*rape me*sob*Sob*
After awhile she finally seemed to calm down. Kagome released Inuyasha's robes, wiping away some of her remaining tears. She stood erect and her voice resounded, traces of her fear and sadness disappearing.
"You're right Inuyasha. I've been ignorant to long, I denied what I knew was to be true. This place isn't safe, whether it be with you or without I have to leave. I will help you in your rebellion, but you must help me. I'm not going to just be a piece in this game of chess. I want to fight in this war, and you are going to make sure that happens." Kagome's mind was set and her stance showed confidence. "I, no we will win this war and I will be Queen. This kingdom will see the light of day and I'm positive I can make that happen."
Inuyasha looked onward stunned, for those few seconds Princess Kagome had gone from child to woman. It was the first time her saw her in that light but it was far from the last.
