InuYasha, Kagome and anyone else you saw in the manga or anime does
not belong to me. Yukio does. If I saw so much as a shiny penny for
this story, you think I’d be writing fanfiction still? Okay, I
would… Damn other authors and their more interesting universes…

Feedback: Keeps my muse talking and
the stories coming! Do tell. But if you have a flame, use it for
something more productive, like setting your clothes on fire.

The Boyfriend

Chapter 13

InuYasha heard the gasp from the main house as he
walked by and he stopped, looking up at Mrs. Higurashi. She was
staring at him with a strange look on her face and he looked down at
himself. He was covered in blood—his own and Yukio’s. When the
sun came up, all the wounds would heal and there wouldn’t be a scar
on him. He hoped Yukio never recovered. He met Mrs. Higurashi’s
eyes and she looked away.

“Is he still alive?” she asked quietly.
InuYasha nodded.

“I told Kagome I wouldn’t kill him. He was
alive when I left him.”

“Is that… all his blood?”

“No,” InuYasha answered. “Most of it’s
mine.” She looked over at him and the look turned to concern. “But
don’t worry about it. I’ll heal it by morning. He won’t.”
InuYasha finished his trek to the well house and jumped back into his
own time without looking back. He climbed the vines that Kagome had
so many times before and pulled himself out at the top. Immediately,
even without his hanyo senses, he knew something was wrong. He stood
up and ran towards the camp and when he was almost there, that’s
when he heard Miroku scream.

InuYasha pushed himself just a little further and
cursed his human form to the depths of hell. When he finally reached
them, whatever had attacked them was gone. Sango was trying to help
Miroku and Shippo was crying and clutching Kagome’s bag. Kirara was
in her small form, unconscious. No matter where InuYasha looked, he
didn’t see Kagome. He would have demanded to know where she was,
but he saw that Miroku was hurt, badly. He ran over to him and looked
at the blood seeping through the robes.

“What happened?” he asked, frustrated by the
hours left until the sun rose.

“We were attacked,” Sango said. “We barely
saw anything, it was like they were made of shadows. Kagome screamed,
and then, she was just… gone.”

“Which way?” InuYasha asked, looking around.

“No, you don’t understand. It was like she
vanished into the air.”

“Shit!” InuYasha cursed, standing and looking
around, finally screaming in frustration, “Kagome!”

A/N: Ah, sorry for that being so short, but
that’s all this chapter was! Gomen!
