Passively Powerful Over One by LanaLove

Encounter

When Kagome jumped into the Bone Eaters Well, she expected another few days for looking for the Shikon Jewels, battling demons, and fussing with Inu Yasha. However, today was going to be a day that would change everything from the normal order of things. This day was the start of the biggest downfall of Kagome's life. It all started with a loud scream of 'Sit' that carried in the wind to where Miroku, Sango, and Shippo were sitting at. Which was under a tree, sipping tea.

Miroku looked up to see Kagome macheing towards him, her face as red as a beat.

"That no good jerk!" she mummered as she ringged her hair out walking up to them.

"Where is Inu Yasha?" Sango question.

"Inu Yasha who!?" Kagome snapped. "You must mean that jerk Inu Yasha!?

"Yes, we mean that Inu Yasha." Miroku asked clamily.

"Who knows or cares! Drowning hopefully! Can I possbliy take a bath without him around!? I mean really, I told to everyone, including him, that I was going off to take a bath! Next thing I know, I see Inu Yasha peeking at me from behind a tree! When I asked him what he was doing behind there, he told me he was worried! The nerve of him!"

"But isn't it Inu Yasha's job is to protect you?" Miroku asked while sipping tea.

"From what!? Slipping on a rock and breaking my leg!?" Kagome shouted while putting her hands on her hips. "I was taking a bath! normally I would have wanted to take a bath till night, but after being cased by that demon, there was no way I was going to walk around smelling like sweat."

"Kagome, I'm sure that Inu Yasha was just checking up on you. You know that we have many enemy in this area." Sango said looking up at the upsetted girl..

"I don't care! You think I don't know how to take care of myself!? Do I have to prove that to you!?"

~*~*~*~

"She going to get it!" Inu Yasha mummered as she smiled to himself, standing up, letting the water dripp off of him.

Inu Yasha couldn't do anything but smile at himself. Was, indeed checking up on Kagome, but more looking at her than checking.

( I have really got to stop doing that.) He thought to himself.

But that was something that the half demon could not help. He was, indeed, drawn to the girl from the future. The more Kagome was around, the more he was drawn to her. He scent, her ways, her looks. Everything. but these were things he would never tell her if his life depended on it.

(Besides, I am no idiot who goes blaming out his feeling for someone. Thats not me. And besides, it's not like I even like her like that! How can I when she always nagging at me!?)

Inu Yasha slowly made his way back to camp, knowing that once he got there, there would be another fight. However, she wasn't there.

"Where Kagome?" Inu Yasha questioned while he sat down side Shippo.

"She went off walking somewhere. I wanted to go with her but she said for me to stay." Shippo answered in his child like voice.

"Feh, let her go." Inu Yasha mummered.

"Inu Yasha, don't you think that maybe we should go after her? There are a lot of Demon here." Sango added.

"She has he bow and arrows don't she. If she thinks strong enough to go off by herself with my protection, than let her go! I'm pretty sure that before long, I'll hear her screaming out my name for help!"

~*~*~*~

(Just who does that jerk think he is? He takes his job of protecting me way too far. I'l show him I'm fine off on my own. He'll be coming to me for help!) ran though her mind.

Kagome angry made her way through the wood alone. She had snatched her bow and arrows and stormed off, waring the others not to follow her.

(I'll be fine on my own!)

So she walked on, not quiet knowing where she was going, but then, not caring either. Her mind had drifted off to how much school work she would have to make up when she Kagome heard a something move in the bushes behind she.

"Inu Yahsha, if thats you, get ready to get a ass full of pain!" Kagome snapped without turning around.

"Is that a promise?"

Kagome suddenly stopped walking.

(Thats not Inu Yasha! ) came a fightnening though

Kagome spun around to find Sesshomaru instead.

He stood a few feet in front of her. His plain expression look gave Kagome chills.

(Damn-damn-damn! Of all the people to run into!)

When Sesshomaru took a step closer, Kagome ready her bow and arrow, pointing it right in the middle of his head.

"Don't come any closer or I'll put a arrow in the middle of that crescent moon!" Kagome warned.

"Do you really think your aim is that good?" Sesshomaru asked in a plain voice.

"Want me to try and find out?"

(Wants wrong with me? This is Sesshomaru I'm talking to like that.)

"Where is Inu Yasha?"

"Ahead of me! Not too far! If I scream, he'll coming running so you better leave me alone before I call him."

(Better lie because if he finds out-)

A sly smile spread across Sesshomaru face. "Your lieing. Inu Yasha is miles from here."

"What dies it matter!? I'll still shout you! I don't need-

Before Kagome could finish, like a flash, the bow and arrow was slapped out of her reach and Sesshomaru was suddenly behind her. His new arm around her waste and the other at her neck, his razor sharp, poison nails threatening to dig into her skin.

(No, this can't be good!)

"Now, isn't this a awful position you've gotten yourself into girl?" Sesshomaru hissed in Kagome's ear.

~*~*~*~

Inu Yasha's head and eyes snapped towards the direction of the woods as scent begin to mangle in the air. The scent of Kagome, fear, Sesshomaru, and something else.

"Inu Yasha? What's wrong?" Shippo questions looking up at him.

"Kagome!" Was the last thing her said as she speeded off towards her direction.

(Damn, she a few miles away! I will be about 5 mins. before I can get to her. Just what was she thinking!?)
