Okay guys, this is my first fic so please don't be harsh!!!! This happens
right after the Chapter Mimisenri (volume 29 part 9). So the setting is
Kikyou's imitation body is presumed dead, Naraku has a new body and was
able to dispose his feelings for Kikyou. Another detachment of Naraku
appeared- a baby who is currently in care of Kagura. According to Naraku,
there is only one shard left. He asked a youkai named Mimisenri about the
location of the shard and he said that it is between the current world and
the next (I don't really know what he means though). Inuyasha is SUPER
depressed about Kikyou (of coarse! But I don't know why he should waste his
time thinking about that psycho walking corpse) and Kagome is very
confused. Kagome's miko powers will be improving in my fic. Okay, enough of
that, if you are still confused, go visit http://www.wot-
club.org.uk/Inuyasha. I also tried my best to change some character's potty
mouth (especially Inuyasha).
Disclaimer: As usual. I don't own Inuyasha and the rest. They belong to Ms. Rumiko Takahashi. But I still own some of MY characters!!!!! ^_^ (At least I have SOMETHING to own!)
*****Important note***** I will use lots of POV's (point of view) so if that's confusing please cooperate!! I started with it so I must end with it! Gomen, gomen!
The Last Shard (I'm sorry if someone took this title, I didn't notice!)
By.me.
"The Last Shard is between this world and the next"
Kagome's POV
*Sigh* What really is wrong with him? He's hasn't removed that expression since I came back from my time. The destruction of Kikyou's imitation body must have shocked him so much. And why. is he so determined to bring her back. as if he would even if he had to go through hell? He seems to love her so much, so much as if it was everything. Ah, get back together Kagome. Of coarse he loves her. Yes he loves her, truly. entirely. Whoa, what's gotten into me since then?
- Flash back-
Baby: You were actually happy weren't you? When you learned that Kikyou was dead, when you learned that the block was gone! You were happy weren't you? You HATE Kikyou, right? You have a grudge against Inuyasha, don't you?
-End of Flash back-
"Grr. I hate boat rides. isn't this ride over yet," said a very sickly voice of Shippou from behind me. He was at the very back of the boat. He seemed dizzy.
"If you quit staring at the water, maybe it would feel better for you," answered yet another voice, it was Sango's. I turned my head to the side to see her, stroking Kirara.
"Why do everyone have to say that to me?" Shippou replied back.
"It's not only you Shippou. urrrg," said Miroku who was right infront of me. He seemed seasick. Well I guess not really seasick, literally.
"Baka," said Sango. I smiled, it was quite fun watching both of them. "Anyway, Kagome-chan," Sango said as she turned to me, "what do you think is the problem of Inuyasha? He is unsually quiet."
"Well, guess what? He is obviously thinking about Kikyou this whole time," came my harsh answer. Sango gave me this half-surprised and half- worried look. Why does she have to do that?
Then, just then, something hit me.
"There is a kehai of a large Shikon fragment underneath this boat."
Inuyasha's POV
Her words brought me back to senses. Naraku, he is going to pay for everything he did. Even now, he must be quite happy after Kikyou had gone back to hell. I jerked my head down into the icy cold water. I couldn't see anything, nor smell youkai. I jerked my head back up and started to look around just in case.
"I'm sure that is Naraku. Who else could have an almost-complete Shikon?" Miroku said with a voice no longer sick.
"Are you alright Kagome-chan?" a knew voice came. I soon realised that it belonged to Sango. I turned towards the back of the boat. Sango, Miroku, and Shippou were crowding my sight. I walked closer and saw Sango holding a very pale girl in her arms who seemed to have just fainted.
"Kagome! What happened?" I asked.
"We don't know. At first she was shaking then she breathed hard. She was holding her chest as if it was going to explode. Then she suddenly fainted but good thing Sango caught her . I think something terrible happened to Kagome! Is she going to die? Look! She is so cold. She is not going to die, is she? Is she?" Shippou said almost crying. Does he even breathe? I only stared at him, then at Kagome. She wasn't going to die, I know it.
"We can't really know if the Shikon shard is nearby or not without her," said Miroku. I agreed with him.
"Well then, what do we do?" Sango had to ask.
"We'll just move on. We can't wake her and we can't find Naraku without her. We also can't wait," I said. I was confused with myself. Why was I doubting? Why was I hesistating? Why do I feel as if this, all this, wasn't going on the way it was supposed to be? Why can't I help myself like I wasn't able to help Kikyou. nor Kagome.
Sango's POV
I didn't quite understand his expression but I agreed. Was he disappointed that Kagome fell? And that he won't be able to sense Naraku from here? I looked at the girl below. Her hand was icy cold as I held it. I stared at her with pity. She must have gotten hurt since then and now this? I noticed a village from afar. I was not the only one though. Suddenly, we felt the cold liquid rise up to our feet.
"Wha- what's happening?" asked Miroku. I searched around for cracks or hole but nothing seemed different.
"Something is pulling us down," Inuyasha said ahead of me. It must be a youkai of Naraku. Miroku pulled his head out and gave me the signal that there was nothing to be seen in the waters. It could have been using the Shikon shards to hide its youki. So that must have been the reason why it made Kagome this way.
"Well we have to do something. Why not go to that village nearby. After all, Kagome-chan needs to rest," I suggested. The water was rising every second.
"Alright, come on," Inuyasha said as he carried Kagome on his back. The rest of us rode Kirara as it jumped to the land in our left side along with Inuyasha. We started our way towards the village. When we were half- way through our walk, the village people were coming closer to us. The leading person was a woman in a miko's dress.
"Who are you? Travelers? What do you need?" she asked coming closer. The lady seemed quite beautiful. I turned my head saw Miroku with a grin and I gave him a don't-you-dare look. But what surprised me more was that the woman was practically running towards Miroku. I was speechless. Miroku seemed half-delighted, half-shocked. But to his luck, the woman just ran past him and continued running into the direction of Inuyasha. Next thing we knew,she was trying to get Kagome off him.
"This young lady, what happened to her?" sheasked.
"It really isn't your business," Inuyasha scowled, being his usual self.
"This girl is a miko isn't she? I bet she will wake by tomorrow morning. She had been struck by a strong aura," she said after examining her.
"How come we didn't feel anything at all?" I asked after snickering at the shock in the face of Miroku.
"That could be because it was specially directed to her or it is because her miko powers are strong enough to sense something further than ordinary human beings. It could even be both," was her reply. "First to introduce myself, my name is Harukaine, the village miko here. We'd better go to the village quickly. I can take care of her for the night. You can also tell me how you came here and some more about this lady." We agreed and followed her to the village.
Inuyasha's POV
We followed until we came across a hut. It was last one in the whole village. She put Kagome down on a mat. The miko, Harukaine, said that she will be alright tomorrow morning, right? So she is going to survive. Thank God!
"So, I have a question, this girl, she seems to have miko powers beyond her age. As I saw her, she seemed quite young though," she said. "I wonder if both her parents had strong spiritual powers, which might be able to support some answer."
"Maybe because she was- uh. nevermind," I heard Shippou say. Why do I have this uneasy feling?
"Um. what do you mean by was?" just as I thought, she asked. Why do I feel like this, scared? I don't feel like staying here for a while. I don't understand. I'd better go now before this feeling starts to freak me out.
That's it for the first Chappie! Please tell me what you think!!! Okay, okay, I know what you are thinking, this story is lame, boring, the worst I read, etc. But please let me know! The second Chapter will be soon, after I know what you think about it!!! Thanks for even reading my first chapter!!!
