A Little slant of light upon The world

Chapter 1

Harder life

Its been 2 years they've searched for Naraku, and 2 years they've searching for half of the jewel. Everyone in the group has been getting stronger and smarter with there defense and skills. Inuyasha of course hasn't changed with his attitude with everyone but he is still strong. Sango has been practicing with her hiraikotsu and her sword. Miroku meditates more often now and his prayers are stronger. Shippo's fox fire is a tiny bit stronger than a year ago, he's been practicing with kirara. Kagomes miko powers are beyond stronger than when she first came into the past. She learns new things every day and is practicing to put up a barrier.

The group was about to set up camp when a giant lizard with 2 shards came from the shadows.

"Miko, you have the shards, give them to me." it said in a gruff tone. Kagome then stepped back for a minute and looked around to see Inuyasha was no were to be seen. She then grabbed her bow and arrows and aimed for his heart. She let go and the lizard turned to dust.

"Great job Kagome, but we could of done that" Sango said. Kagome then picked up the shards and formed it together with the rest on her neck, she then turned to everyone.

"Were is Inuyasha?" Kagome asked in an angry and sad voice.

"I don't know, he left right when we wanted to set up" Miroku said. Kagome then grabbed her backpack.

"Lets go find a spring and take a bath, Sango." Sango's eyes then lit up.

"Yea, shippo stay here with miroku and make sure he doesn't come, ok?"

"Ok" he said sadly. Kagome then ran towards Sango and she took her wrist and they ran into the forest in search for a spring. Once they found one there was no hesitating when they slipped into the hot bubbling water.

"Aahh, this feels wonderful." Kagome said wile sighing.

"We have to do this often" Sango then sighed herself. Both girls relaxed into the water. Kagomes eyes then shot open as she looked to her side to see piercing red eyes looking hungrily at her.

"Sango!" she then covered her breast at the same time .

"What is it kago-" she was cut off by seeing the demon.

"He has a shard."

"so miko you can sense the sacred jewel shard, you will make a fine mate, your scent is pleasant, your quite attractive, and you're a very strong miko" he smiled hungrily. Kagome then frowned in disgust. He was handsome for a demon, his long coal-black hair, red eyes and a built body, but he was somehow hideous inside.

"Leave Kagome alone, I will kill you before you can touch her!" Sango yelled wile putting a towel around herself. Kagome then got out and wrapped a towel around her too. She then looked around for her bow and arrows.

"Sango, we don't have our weapons" she whispered.

"My dear miko, if you come easily I wont kill your friend, but if you struggle then I will love the chase." he then stepped forward and at the same time Sango got in front of Kagome protectively as her sister.

"Like I said you wont touch her" Sango hissed out.

"Sango no, I don't want you hurt" Kagome then stepped in front of her and put out her hands,

"stop" Kagome then saw a flash of red and soon she fell to the ground. Slowly she went unconscious wile hearing Sango cry out her name.

When Kagome woke up she looked around. She was in Kaede's hut

what happened? she got up slowly and left the hut. There outside she saw Inuyasha and everyone sitting on the ground looking out into nothing. Sango was the first to notice her friend. She smiled weakly,

"Kagome your awake"

"what's going on?"

"Kagome lets go talk" Sango then got up and grabbed Kagome's hand and led her back into the hut. Silently she sat down and kagome fallowed her in suit.

"What's going on?"

"Remember before you got nocked out?"

"Yes"

"well remember that demon?"

"Yes, get to the point Sango" kagome said wearily.

" well he got away, and Inuyasha got you before he did, he was ganna take you, and now we think he's going to be our new enemy, after Naraku dies, he ganna take his place and be stronger, he's going to keep trying to get you, and you are in danger"

"Inuyasha saved me?"

"Yea, he was going to rip that guys head off, and he almost died from that demons poison."

"Wait what?"

"When that demon tried to reach for you, Inuyasha pushed him then it grabbed his hand and put poison into him, but he let go and took off to who knows were." kagome then shot up and ran out the hut to inuyasha. When he looked up she was embracing him. He hugged her back wile she started to cry.

"Im sorry that happed to you" he then pulled away.

"I need to talk to you...alone" he then looked at every one.

"Ok,ok, we're leaving" Miroku then grabbed Shippo and they went into the hut with Sango and Kirara. Inuyasha then looked into Kagome teary gaze and smiled.

"Im sorry im always a jerk, I should of never left you alone and im sorry" he then hugged her.

"I love you, kagome." her eyes snapped open and she stopped breathing.

"I...i.love you too" he then kissed her. Her heart was beating faster than ever and she felt as if she were free. Tears stung at her eyes as she smiled into his kiss.

he loves me, me as in kagome, not Kikyou he pulled away and smiled down at her, his ears then twitched as his head snapped to the hut. He growled when he heard a small 'he heard us, get down Shippo'

"Were you listening to us you damn monk!" Inuyasha yelled angrily. And then stepped away and looked at kagome wile she blushed.

"We better get going or Naraku finds all the shard before us."

The day went by slow because of all the fighting, and they only got a small piece of the jewel. Every one was getting ready to sleep after they ate and set up for the night. Kagome was already asleep when she hit her sleeping bag with Shippo cuddled to her side. Soon after every one dozed off after her. When Kagome woke up it was dark and the moon was the only light. Looking at her watch she nearly gasped.

its only 3 a.m. and im well rested. her head snapped up at the sound of wind blowing the leaves around. She then noticed some one missing from the group.

Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara, and... were's Inuyasha? she then jumped up and grabbed her bows and arrows. Silently she walked into the forest. When she tripped over an unseen rock she looked up to see Inuyasha in Kikyou's arms. They didn't notice her there. Silently she got up and sat behind a bush. After a while she heard them talking.

"Inuyasha soon you will be with me in hell."

"Kikyou I cant, not yet."

"Its because if my reincarnation!" she hissed.

"No, I cant go without collecting all the jewels."

"Then will you be with me."

"I don't want you to go to hell I was going to use the jewel to bring your life back." he said happily.

"but if my reincarnation dies then my soul will be mine and I will be alive, then you could use the jewel to become human"

"Yea, but w..what about kagome."

"She will die"

"how?"

"You will trick her and then kill her." Kagome's eyes widened as she sat there in shock. Inuyasha didn't say anything after that, and she just heard movement of cloths. Fast she got up and charged back to camp, with tears pricking at her eyes. When she got to camp she laid down and cried silently.

lets act like nothing happened, I know he loves her because she is his first, I cant help that, but it still hurts she then fell into a deep nightmare, replaying what happened that night.

She woke the next day to yelling. Snapping her eyes open and regretting it, as the sun burned her eyes. Adjusting to the light she sat up and looked around. Sango with a pissed off look on her face, Miroku with a huge frown were looking angrily at Inuyasha. Shippo first notice his okaasan, he jumped to her arms and sobbed on her shoulder.

"What's going on?" Kagome yelled out over the arguing group. Sango's eyes softened when she looked at the miko.

"Inuyasha left to who knows were last night and a lowly demon came into camp and took some of the shards" Sango said angrily. Inuyasha looked at Kagome then he flattened his ears.

"I didn't leave!" he yelled.

"Everyone calm down, we can find the rest" Kagome said calmly as sadness took over her mind at realizing he betrayed them. Kagome looked at everyone then to Inuyasha.

"Inuyasha, did you really leave last night, tell me the truth." she said calmly hiding her sadness. She was hoping he would tell the truth.

"No" he said simple.

TRADER, TRADER, he is such a fucked up liar. her unknown voice yelled.

hey shuddup, who are you any ways she asked herself.

your demon sideit said annoyedly.

but im not demon

well you'll find out soon but I come out from you when your hurt too much insideit said happily. Kagome's gaze shot up when she hear her name.

"Kagome?" Sango asked warily. Kagome then smiled at her friend then looked at the inu-hanyou. Her eyes softened,

"if he sais he's not lying then I go with him, any ways he's never lied to me before, he is my best friend." Kagome smiled when he hung his head.

I hope he's guilty about lying to me that bastard her demon yelled.

you curse a lot you know she said.

member im a mean demon, gerrrr the demon her growled like a tiger making kagome giggle. Everyone looked at her.

"Sorry im just thing about things" she then sighed and looked at Shippo." I think we should get going and look for the shards" she then got up and started packing . After a few secondsstood there looking at Kagome sadly.

why did I lie, she believed me so easily he then started helping her pack up.

The group got through the day with only three pieces of the jewel. Kagome pulling a twig out of her hair got up.

"u guys make camp, wile me and Sango go for a needed bath," she then grabbed her pack and Sango's wrist and bolted for the nearby springs. Jumping in after undressing Kagome sighed and ducked under the water. Coming up she saw Sango's worried expression looking at her.

"Kagome some things going on your not telling me." Kagome then looked Sango in the face.

"Its nothing really" she said happily. Lathering shampoo into her hair she gazed out into the sky.

"Kagome are you sure?"

"Yes im fine"

"I am your friend, you can tell me anything, ok."

"Ok" she then smiled at Sango and rinsed her hair.

"Hey can I use some of that stuff?" kagome nodded and handed her the bottle. After both girls washed every inch of there body the relaxed into the water chatting.

"Sango its getting dark, we should get out"

"yea, lets go" they both then jumped out and dressed quickly. Walking a little ways kagome stoped.

"What's wrong?" Sango whispered.

"I...I sense a shard"

"were?"

"Come on I'll show you" she then grabbed Sango hand and dashed to the shard. She stopped a little ways and got behind a little tree when she knew who was on the other side. Sango looked at her confusingly.

"What's wrong, who's over th-" Sango peeped on the other side and gasped silently.

"That little, im ganna kill him once we get to camp" she said angrily and Kagome put her hand on her shoulder.

"Kikyou has the jewel"

"w...what"Sango was about to jump up but Kagome pulled her down.

"Sango please, don't lets just go back to camp, don't say anything once he comes back ok, please" kagome could feel the tears that burned her eyes as Sango got up with kagome by her side and they left. After a few minutes kagome broke down into tears. Sango then pulled to into a hug holding her friend.

"Its ok kagome, he wont hurt you again" she said wile caressing her back. Kagome then soon fainted and Sango picked her up(member Sango is really strong, look at her boomerangs its heavier than kagome) and walked towards camp, kagome then whispered before falling back into her faint.

"Please don't tell inu that we saw him, please don't" she then fell back. The next day kagome woke up to some one beside her. Opening her eyes she saw Sango sitting beside her.
