A.N.: SplendentGoddess...I was worried that some readers wouldn't like that Kagome was able to wield Tessaiga. I never know exactly what is going to happen in any of the stories I write. My daughter (11 going on 12) was reading this story as I was writing it last year. I was just as surprised as she was when Kouga showed up and the well was broken. I don't know what's going to happen next until I write it and read back over it.
I've got two more chapters after this one that are already written, and one half finished. I just have to type it all up and then I'll be writing more. My daughter is trying to convince me that all of my stories need to be typed up and posted...that's at least 20...probably more...definitely more, I think.
Chapter Six
I woke up to a quiet argument somewhere nearby. I realized as I sat up that it was Inuyasha and Myoga arguing.
“What are you two arguing about?” I asked them.
I realized as I looked around that I was the last one awake. Sango brought me breakfast and tea and I thanked her quietly.
“He insisted that we let you sleep,” she whispered before she walked back over to Miroku.
I ate my breakfast quietly while Sango and Miroku packed up our camp. Inuyasha and Myoga continued to argue. Shippo sat quietly by the fire with Kirara. Storm stood nearby, waiting for us to be ready to go.
“Kagome,” Inuyasha spoke up, “Send the runt to the village with the others. Myoga wants us to go see someone he knows that might be able to tell us something about this spell.”
“Okay,” I agreed as I stood up.
Sango and I separated out some supplies for Inuyasha and I to take with us. I hugged Shippo tightly and told him to be good before he hopped on Kirara with Sango and Miroku. They waved as they flew off and I turned to back to Inuyasha once they were out of sight.
“Alright, so where are we going?” I asked him as I picked him up and set him on Storm's back.
“Around Totosai's mountain,” Myoga said as I climbed up behind Inuyasha, “It's at least a two day ride on horse, I think, to get around the mountain. And then at least another day or two to get to who we need to see.”
“Okay. I'm going to have to do some hunting at some point, somehow,” I told them.
“We'll do some when we stop for lunch,” Inuyasha said, “And I'll show you how to get it ready for cooking. I should have taught you all this ages ago. Come morning, I won't be any help.”
“Alright.”
I led Storm in the direction Myoga told me to go in and we slowly started to make our way around Totosai's mountain. We stopped for lunch near a stream and I let Storm loose to drink some water and nibble on some grass. I followed Inuyasha into the trees and watched as he quickly caught a couple of rabbits. As we made our way back to the stream, we spotted a small boar. It was young, not much bigger than Kirara's kitten form. Inuyasha talked me through where to aim and, somehow, I got it in one shot.
“I probably couldn't do that again if my life depended on it,” I scoffed as I picked it up.
We walked back to where we'd left Storm and set up a fire. Inuyasha had me sit at the water's edge as he showed me how to skin and clean our kills and get them ready for cooking. He helped me set them over the fire using some tree branches. By the time we had two fully cooked rabbits and the boar on it's way to being smoked, it was past lunch and only a few hours until sundown.
“Might as well stay here tonight,” he said, “The boar needs to cook for a few more hours. Myoga can help you figure out when it's done.”
“Okay.”
I set up our bedding for the night and sat down with Tessaiga in my lap. Inuyasha fingered the pendant around his neck curiously.
“Kagome, what's this?” he asked.
“It's meant to act as a seal, like Tessaiga,” I told him, “And it's for protection. I have one, too.”
“Did Totosai make them?”
“Yep.”
“Out of what?”
“Your fangs, and um...” my voice trailed off while I wondered what his reaction would be.
“Adamant from Tessaiga's Adamant Barrage!” Myoga told him excitedly.
“Wha...you let me use Adamant Barrage?! Are you crazy?!”
“No! Master Inuyasha, Kagome wielded Tessaiga!” Myoga told him happily, while I blushed and looked down at the sword in my lap.
“Kagome?” Inuyasha spoke quietly as he moved to sit in front of me, “Tessaiga let you wield it? Fully?”
“Yes,” I whispered in reply.
“Show me,” he insisted.
I stood up and tucked Tessaiga's sheath at my hip before I drew the sword. A light flaring of my miko powers called up an answering flare of youki from Tessaiga and the rusty katana turned into the glowing fang. Another pulse of power, and the sword shifted to it's crystalline form.
“Kagome...” Inuyasha's voice was soft with an undertone that I didn't understand.
I turned to look at him and saw him staring at me with wide eyes. I opened my mouth to say something when a sensation I dreaded hit me. I moved quickly and lifted Inuyasha onto my back.
“Kagome?”
“Something's coming,” I told him, “I sense a jewel shard.”
He held onto my back, careful not to get in the way of my arms, as a bear demon stepped out of the tree line and growled at me.
“Give me the jewel shards, girl,” it growled, “Or I will eat you!”
“Sorry, I'm not on the menu today,” I replied, “I don't give away jewel shards!”
The bear demon attacked, swinging a large clawed paw at me. Without realizing what I was doing, I put both hands on Tessaiga and swung. The bear screamed in pain and rage as its paw fell to the ground.
“Feel for it,” Inuyasha whispered, “Tessaiga is letting you use it, you can find the Wind Scar, Kagome. There's nothing behind him but trees, Storm and Myoga are behind us.”
I held Tessaiga steady in my hands, even though part of me was running around in circles and screaming in terror in my mind. I let my powers flare up around us as the bear prepared to change. I felt...something...in the air in front of me and swung Tessaiga with a yell.
“Wind Scar!”
Power flared through me and around me as Tessaiga's Wind Scar tore the bear demon to pieces. I hit my knees, gasping at the amount of power I'd just felt. Inuyasha jumped off my back and ran over to where the bear once stood. He picked something up and ran back to me.
“Kagome...Kagome!” he called to me.
I shook my head to clear it and looked at him.
“Inuyasha?”
“Here,” he said as he held out his hand.
I took one hand off of Tessaiga and held it out to him. He dropped the jewel shard into my hand, smirking at me in amusement.
“Kagome, you okay?”
“Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm...I'm okay,” I said dazedly.
“At least I know that, if it comes to it, Tessaiga likes you enough that you can use it and stay safe,” he said.
“Actually, Master Inuyasha,” Myoga said, “I believe it is not quiet that simple. I believe it is also because Tessaiga was repaired with your own fang, and you have a strong need and desire to protect Kagome. I believe that is what has allowed Tessaiga to allow Kagome to wield it.”
Inuyasha blushed and glared at Myoga as I stood up and put Tessaiga away. I watched the jewel shard in my hand to make sure it lightened in color before I added it to the little jar around my neck.
“Come on, Kagome,” Inuyasha said quietly as he grabbed my hand, “You need to set your barrier and lay down.”
I let him lead me to my bedding by the fire. I pulled Tessaiga and its sheath from my hip and laid down with the sword beside me. I activated Tessaiga's barrier and stretched out with a yawn. I watched as Storm settled down near the stream and Inuyasha checked on the boar over the fire. H finally walked over and stretched out next me.
“Goodnight, Kagome,” he said quietly.
“Goodnight, Inuyasha,” I replied softly as I drifted off to sleep.
