and wanted to see how you are doing with this disgusting mutt! But apparently he can't take care of you properly."he said with anger in his voice. Now he looked up at her again and saw her tears again." What did he do? Why are you crying? ", he asked cautiously but still in an angry voice. When she looked into his face she had to think of Inuyasha again and many tears ran down her cheeks on her slightly blushed face. Suddenly she fell around his neck. She was relieved that he was was with her right now and suddenly she noticed how a hand ran over her back. "Inuyasha has met his loved one again and told her what he really thinks of me. I would only be useful for looking for splinters and I would only be a buddy to him! That damn fool was always jealous when you came or when I met Hojo and then he'd tell you something! ", she said with a tear-veiled voice and yet a trace of anger and disappointment could be heard. Kouga only wanted to scream in between when she mentioned that with Hojo but didn't want to have a big discussion with her now, when she was already so sad."Hey, it's getting dark soon and I don't want to ask you to go back to that stupid mutt, so why don't you just come over to me?", He asked determinedly. "All right," came just from Kagome. He took her in his arms and ran with her as fast as he could to his cave. Actually, she was a bit uncomfortable being alone as a female among so many wolves. But she knew that Kouga would never allow anything to happen to her and that he would take care of her too. She decided to stay with him for quite a while.

Inuyasha was already waiting impatiently in front of the fountain, because today was the day. Today she would come back, or at least he thought. When several hours passed, he decided to get her. "Well wait, Kagome! Just to let me sit here like that. You will come with me whether you want to or not," his eyes really flashed when he said that. Because inside he was happy to finally see her again. With one leap he disappeared into the well.On the other side he jumped out of the well, out of the shrine and now stood in the courtyard. There he met her mother, who looked at him questioningly. "Hello Inuyasha! Where is Kagome?" Ms. Higurashi asked carefully. "Uh, actually, I thought she was here! We agreed to meet 3 days ago that if she doesn't come I'll get her!", He said, his voice increased a little. "A .. ... But, but she's already ..... She's been with you since the second day, at least that's what she planned to do. I only saw her disappear into the shrine afterwards was she gone. ", her mother now seemed to be worried too. "My goodness, what if something happened to her, my God, I shouldn't have let her go", the woman fell on her knees and began to cry. Inuyasha immediately rushed to calm her down. "Don't worry, I'll go looking for her right away and I promise if I find out anything about you, you'll be the first to find out," he said, speaking to her.He rose again and disappeared into the well. As soon as he reached the other side, he dived to Kaede's hut. He pushed the curtain aside and shouted: "Have you seen Kagome anywhere?". "Yes, I saw her yesterday when she was walking into the forest! But what surprised me, she had cried and she had a look so sad as I had never seen him before! Did you fight?", Told him Miroku, who was sitting comfortably in the hut with Sango, Shippo, Kiara and Kaede. Inuyasha had already missed the last sentence because he immediately sprinted to the forest. ° Kagome you stupid goat! How many times have I told you that the forest is dangerous? Where are you ? Hopefully nothing happened to you! °

Kagome had been awake a long time by this time. She was shocked when she realized where she was, because when she fell asleep she was pretty exhausted. "Oh good morning, Kagome? Did you sleep well?", Kouga greeted her friendly."Uh, good morning. Yes, very good, almost like on my bed at home!", She said happily. Suddenly her face contorted in pain. Kouga could not overlook this and he immediately sent someone out to bring bandages. He sat down in front of her and pulled her foot closer to bandage her knees. Kagome blushed a little because Inuyasha had never done that to her before. He always looked at the wound, but then he just laughed and kept saying that it was just a scratch and that she shouldn't make such a fuss about it. "Uh, thank you very much, Kouga! And thank you very much for letting me stay with you!", She smiled at him, still shimmering red. "Does that mean you really want to stay here?" He asked curiously. She nodded slightly and he hugged her for joy. "But you know that life is not easy with me?" She just nodded again. "Can you handle any weapon," he asked with a serious look. "Yes with the bow!Why do you want to know? ", she asked, slightly confused." Well, I'm afraid that I can't always be there in time when you need me, that's why we will train you and you will learn to use a sword from today! ", he said directly to her face. And so they started to train. She didn’t even feel bad, but she was still pretty exhausted in the evening. Because if they trained that every day now, she would after a few weeks already be really good.

Meanwhile Inuyasha was looking for her everywhere, but he could not find her and so he went back to the camp. He entered the hut with a dejected look. "What could have happened? She's not that careless!", Kaede asked into the group. But nobody could explain it. "Say maybe you upset her and maybe that's why she ran away!" Sango whispered. "No! Your mother told me that school would have been canceled and she returned earlier and .....!"Suddenly it fell from his eyes like tomatoes." So that's what Kikyou had meant! And I fool didn't notice them! Oh man she'll hate me, even if we find her she'll hate me! ":" Why did you meet her again, Kikyou? And why should she hate you? ", Sango asked confused." Yes, I met Kikyou and I just told her that Kagome was just a buddy to me and that I only need her to search for splinters! "." YOU DID WHAT? ARE YOU STILL FULLY WITH CONSOLE? YOU NEVER TELL A WOMAN SHE WOULD BE A MATE! EVEN NOT IF YOU LOVE HER, YOU TROTLE !!!!! ", everyone yelled at him in unison." How do you know that I love her? I love Kikyou and not this stubborn goat! "he yelled back but his face was really fiery red." Inuyasha, listen to me! I think you love Kagome very much, but you don't want to admit it to yourself because your feelings of guilt about Kikyou bind you to her.You try to prevent that with all your might, but let me tell you one thing. Love is stronger and at some point it will bring you to your knees, because feelings of guilt cannot be loved! Please do everyone a favor and finally be honest with yourself! ", Kaede instructed him. The addressee thought about it now and he had finally noticed that the old one was right about one point. But still he couldn't tell the others, could he?" Pah what nonsense are you talking about, old witch? ", he just said, because he really wanted to hide that old Kaede was right after all." You were right! Look, otherwise you wouldn't be so worried about her and certainly not look for her all day! ", Miroku said, speaking to him. That was too much for the grumpy half-demon and he left the hut with a grumble. The next day he woke up before sunrise and began to look for her again. Just like many days, weeks and even months later , but until then he hadn't found her either.Kagome had really grown over time, not just physically but mentally. Her strength increased a lot and her powers as a miko were also trained so that she could feel him without seeing him. Many wars and many fights had happened in the last few weeks, but the wolves were a tough people and through Kagome they managed to heal even the most seriously injured. She had settled in really well with them, she was their queen. At least that's what Kouga always called her. He'd been trying to land with her for a long time, but hugging more than once didn't work out for him. One day they had to move out again to fight a huge and high-ranking demon. Kagome had to come along too, Kouga didn't even want to, but she begged and pleaded until she had patted him soft. She also got really good at fighting. The demon looked like a bird and it had three shards of jewels. They all stormed on him but only a few survived this attack because he was a pretty strong demon.Inuyasha was nearby and had noticed the demon and the wolf. However, he didn't know that Kagome was living with them and he couldn't smell her either because she was wearing one of the wolfskins. This hid their smell. He stormed in the direction of the demon because he noticed that he was very powerful and that could only mean that he was drawing his power from shards of jewels. When Inuyasha came out of a clearing he saw how Kouga was attacked quite violently by the demon and had to take a violent blow. "This little wolf always finds himself in the greatest dilemma! Well then I have to take it in hand", as soon as he had said that, he pulled Tessaiga and stormed towards the demon. He pointed his sword at him, then parted the wind scar. But the demon still didn't have enough and was about to launch an attack on Inuyasha. When a magical arrow dashed into it and caused a huge explosion and tore the demon into a thousand pieces.Inuyasha turned around in shock because he only knew two women who could. And there she was, she immediately rushed to Kouga, who was writhing in pain.

Inuyasha suddenly shot out of the woods just as Kouga was taking a pretty hard blow. He tried a Kaze no Kizo, it hurt him but he was still able to fight. Kagome came to his senses and grabbed an arrow from his quiver. But the old anger and disappointment rose again in her and focused on the arrow. She let go of him and he raced towards the demon and tore him completely apart. She then ran over to Kouga in no time because he was badly injured. "Kouga !!! What is it? What
