Part of the KouKag Halloween Event

--

Kagome let out a small huff as she looked up at the mountain she was heading towards. She had been traveling for several days, bordering a week now, looking for somewhere to settle. However, all the villages she had come across already had a miko or monk residing there, and if they didn’t, they didn’t want one. To be fair, there weren’t many villages she had come across between her hometown and here, and sure, maybe she should go further out after completing her training, but it was still just a little frustrating.

She had finished her training not too long ago. Kikyo was a fantastic instructor and she wouldn’t have been able to harness her reiki nearly half of what she could now without the miko’s help. Normally she would be asked to stay and help out the miko who trained her and would be prepared to take over when she died, but Kikyo was young, and they both had strong, potent holy powers. Kikyo knew that Kagome’s powers would be better put to use elsewhere instead of sticking around and doing minor things. So, she was sent off; saddled with the task of finding a village in distress and helping them in any and every way she could and, eventually, settling there.

It may seem easy, but it was proving to be more difficult than she had initially thought. Kagome feared she may have to leave Kantō all together in order to complete her task. It really shouldn’t be a scary prospect, but she had been born and raised in Edo. She had never seen any other place, she had never left Kantō, and now at what felt like the drop of a hat, her whole world was changing, and it scared her.

Kagome frowned and tugged lightly on the collar of her haori, adjusting it when it wasn’t needed, a nervous habit of hers. She tried to keep her thoughts clear as she continued on her way towards Nabewari Yama. The sun was going to set soon, and she wanted to at least make some sort of headway towards the mountain peak.

What Could Have Been Update

Chapter 2

Rating: Explicit Status: In Progress Summary: Kagome wished on the jewel, but it wasn't the right wish.

Chapter Excerpt:

But Kouga — Kouga was the biggest mystery.

Physically he looked no different, but he felt different. Almost like she had never noticed the strong line of his jaw before. Or maybe it was the intelligence behind his gaze that made the blue shine. His laugh was louder though far less frequent and she’d only started seeing his smile over the last week. She hadn’t seen it once while they were in the den, only that mocking grin he kept shooting her.

Even now in his sleep, he was striking. He’d always been fit and she’d known it before, but she noticed scars on his hands now. Calluses on his fingers and the sharp points of his fangs and the fan of thick eyelashes over his high cheekbones.

Had he always been this attractive? Would she have felt this way if she hadn’t met Inuyasha first? It wasn’t something she liked to think about. Kagome loved her time before, loved her journey and everything she’d learned from it. She would have never traded it for the world.

Which only reminded her of the jewel and her wish. Why did it do this to her? Was this her punishment for wishing the wrong thing?

Kouga shifted, a deep breath expanding his chest and then he huffed it out. A thrum of tension spread down his torso, muscles in his forearms flexing just before he opened his eyes.

Just in time for Kagome to realize she was staring at him.

KogKag Week Prompt #2

Demons/Humans

Summary: I decided to do a different approach to the prompt, making Kagome a demon, and Kouga a human. Enjoy!

Kouga returned from his hunt early in the morning to find the village meeting in the center of town. He quickly dropped off the animal he killed in his tent, and rushed back to the meeting. He hoped the reason they were meeting was good. He was disappointed to discover the full moon had a blue ring around it as it reached the highest point in the sky. The water demon would need a sacrifice.

“How long will we sacrifice our children, our friends, our family to this cold hearted beast!?”

“We should fight her!”

“How can we fight a demon? She will destroy our homes and crops with floods. She will make sure fish avoid our traps. We will starve and die anyways if we do not please her!”

Kouga looked around his village and saw each villager trying to voice their own opinion whenever the dreaded blue ring appeared around the full moon. He was familiar with all their arguments, but it all ended the same. The village would succumb to pleasing the demon and sacrifice the person that was chosen. They could not risk losing an entire village for the pleasure of one’s safety.

He couldn’t stand to see one more family being ripped apart thanks to this demon. He rushed forward to the front of the crowd, and found himself facing the village leader.

“I volunteer myself to the water demon. I will go proudly for our village,” Kouga announced for all to hear. Mixed reactions were heard throughout the crowd. There were sighs of relief, and voices of disapproval. What would they do without the most gifted hunter their village had?

“It is a noble action to give yourself to the beast. Are you sure?” The village leader asked Kouga.

Kouga nodded in affirmation. He could not let the village know what he was truly planning. If he was going to kill this demon, he would need surprise on his side.

That night, Kouga was fitted in the finest silks their village had to offer.The many garments allowed him to hide his goraishi, the family heirloom passed from father to son. His long, unruly, black hair was smoothed and brushed into a fine ponytail. The village priest uttered a final prayer for Kouga’s soul before he was pushed into the icy waters.

Kouga fought the urge to survive and swim to reach the surface. The farther he sank in the lake, the darker it became. His lungs were begging for the relief of air, and he could feel himself losing consciousness. Kouga thought he saw a light in the distance, before everything went black.

Kouga slowly stirred into consciousness as he realized he wasn’t in the water anymore, and he could breathe again. He immediately coughed up water that resided in his lungs, and gasped hungrily for air.

“You’re up,” said a small voice next to him.

Kouga blearily opened his eyes and saw a little fox kit demon staring at him.

“The Lady of the castle wants to see you,” the fox kit continued. “Are you well enough to stand?”

The Lady of the castle? He must mean the water demon. Kouga knew this must be his only chance to slay the beast before he was killed. He may be a human, but he knew he could do it.

Kouga nodded and slowly stood. He looked at himself to see the fine silks his village dressed him in was replaced with fur clothing. It did do a better job of warming him in the icy depths of the lake, but he realized with sadness his weapon must have been lost in the depths as well.

The fox kit led Kouga through the hallways of the castle before they came upon a grand entrance to a massive throne room.

“Lady Kagome, I have brought the newest villager to you,” the fox kit announced, bowing to a figure sitting on the throne in front of him.

“Thank you Shippou. Please leave us,” Lady Kagome answered in a kind and authoritative voice. Shippou bowed gracefully, before he left, closing the door to the throne room, leaving the two alone.

Kouga looked at the petite figure sitting in the throne. He was surprised by how young and beautiful she was. She sat on a green throne that seemed to have grown from the plants that grew in the depths of the lake. Her dark hair was adorned with a water lily crown, which went well with her beautiful blue silk dress.

Kagome stood and walked from the throne to meet this newcomer directly. She could not help but notice how his gaze roamed over her body appreciatively. He was no doubt mesmerized by the silk dress she wore that was made from the waves of the lake itself. Each movement caused a ripple to run throughout her dress.

“Who are you, and why does your village continue to discard your human beings to my castle?” Lady Kagome demanded.

Kouga stood transfixed, shocked by the words the demon spoke. It must be a trap.

“Answer me,” she demanded.

“My name is Kouga, and our village does not discard humans to your realm. You demand them every blue moon! If we do not follow your command, you flood our village, and destroy our homes!” Kouga was shocked by how loud his voice came out.

Her laughter filled the air. It was sweet, and melodious, like a creek trickling over rocks. “I am not familiar with your human jokes, but I am sure this is what that must be,” she concluded. She smiled warmly at him, and Kouga felt his knees weaken.

“It is no joke. I am a sacrifice,” he stated weaker than he intended.

Horror and disgust formed on the water demon’s face as she realized what he spoke was truth. “I have never intended the village to discard their humans. Every one that has been sent here has been released and given gifts to live back in their human world. I may be a water demon, but I am no monster.”

Kouga watched her closely. “Prove it.”

Lady Kagome balked in response. “I will not. This is the third human that has been sent down here this season. My home is not waste for your humans to discard of unwanted villagers.”

Kouga watched her, disbelief still etched on his face. Lady Kagome did not know why his opinion of her mattered, but she found herself calling Shippou back in with the records he kept of every visitor she received.

“Shippou, please recite all human visitors that I have brought back to the castle, and what their outcome was. Tell no lies,” she commanded.

Shippou recited of old and young villagers, some that survived that fall in the lake, and some that did not. Kouga caught the look of sadness on Kagome’s face as Shippou spoke of a young girl who did not survive, no matter the efforts to save her. She was no older than five.

He continued to speak of villagers whom Kouga knew himself, but realized they only mentioned villagers from the last few years. He knew the village has been doing this since he was a child, and now he was a man of one and twenty.

“Pardon me, but how long have you resided in the lake?” he interrupted Shippou.

“I made this lake my home six years ago. My old home was polluted from blood and weapons of warring towns. I chose this home because it was far from battle,” Kagome answered.

Kouga knew that no new water demon announced their presence demanding the sacrifices as demons typically do. He must have been crazy, but he believed her.

“Lady Kagome, I request you make an appearance to the village, and explain to my village what has occurred, respectfully of course.” Kouga bowed.

“Will this stop your village from sending me humans to save?” She asked.

He nodded in response.

“Then I will do it. Kouga, please stand by my side, so they shall not doubt me.”

Lady Kagome grabbed Kouga’s hand, and he felt a surge of electricity shoot through him. He looked at this young woman, and saw kindness hidden by strength. Kouga found himself falling in love with this water demon. Kagome dropped an opaque stone that formed a bubble around the two. Kouga knew it was for his benefit, since he could not breathe underwater.

The two arose out of the water, shocking the villagers into a frenzy. Kogua saw the sun setting in the distance, and realized a day must have passed.

“I am the water demon, Lady Kagome, who resides in this lake. I beg of you, please do not send me sacrifices. I am a kind demon who chose this village because of the peacefulness. I was forced to leave my last home due to war. I vow I will not send floods to destroy your crops. I vow I will not let your village starve. If you heed my words, and believe in my honesty and truthfulness, I will be your guardian. I will protect your village, and all those who come to reside here. All I ask is you do not pollute my waters. Here is the man Kouga, the last man who you threw into my waters, left to drown in the bottom of the waters. I saved his life, and now I give him back to you. Let him attest to my truth.”

Kouga stepped forward and spoke to his small village. “Lady Kagome speaks the truth. She has only resided here for six years. Let us end the sacrifices. Let us end the separation of families. She means us no harm.”

The villagers were wary to believe the water demon, but they could not deny their own Kouga was standing there in flesh and blood.

“As a sign of faith, I will marry this human before me. As long as our children resides in this lake, and our home is treated with respect, your village need not worry,” Lady Kagome announced.

“I’m sorry, what?” Kouga asked her.

“We will marry.”

Kouga doubted what she said would come true, but the next week, he found himself standing on the edge of the lake, waiting for his bride to appear from the lake. When she emerged, the village leader resided over their ceremony, and the two were bonded. Kouga now had the lifespan of his mate. They loved each other for many years before they both succumbed to old age, leaving their children being to reside in the lake and watch over the village their father came from. When their children came of age to find their own homes, they chose which one was to stay. And so their family ruled the lake for centuries, while the tale of their water demon mother whom married a human man grew into legend that stayed with the village until the end of its days.
