Worthless Human by Chante

Nocuous

adj. Nocuos: Harmful, dangerous.

“Shit!”

Kagome dodged the hand reaching for her, her heart pounding as the demon in front of her circled her once again.

Okay, she could admit when she was wrong. It truly pained her when she had to, but she could admit she was wrong. Especially now, with a gigantic freaking bear demon attempting to make her a yummy treat. Although miko was a rare commodity in demon circles, she didn’t want to be on the receiving end of any more of his swipes. Her fingers curled tighter around her bow as she shoved those knuckles against his nose, stumbling away from the beast as he roared his rage.

Bad plan, bad plan, bad plan…!

She jumped away from his claws, trying to put enough space between him and her to shoot an arrow at him and purify his freaking hide.

She hissed in pain as a claw grazed her side, knocking her away from him. She forced herself upright, notching an arrow and letting it fly. His roar of pain was followed by several others answering his death cry.

Kagome could feel several auras closing in on her location, and she couldn’t help it.

“SHIT!” She focused instead on putting as much space between the fallen bear and her. She looked on, seeing a mountain pass.

Well, it was her only chance right now.
