Kikyo's Deadly Sin
By Kikira Lynn
Summery: Murder. It's one of the deadly sins. Consequences are great. What does InuYasha do when Kikyo tries to kill Kagome?
Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own InuYasha...but I will someday! Kukukukukuku!...Wow. I'm starting to sound like Naraku.
Chapter 1
The Trap
A dark figure was lurking near the shadows of a dense forest. It was waiting patiently for the night to fall. It was staring at the recent camp made by InuYasha and crew. It knew tonight was the only night it could strike, for tonight was the new moon.
"InuYasha! Sit still so I can bandage your wounds!" an annoyed Kagome yelled.
"Keh! This is just a scratch! Nothing to fret over, wench!" replied an indignant hanyou. "These will heal by tomorrow!"
"InuYasha, if you hadn't noticed, tonight's the new moon. You should allow Kagome-sama to tend to you." Miroku said calmly.
"It's still only a scratch! Even if tonight is the new moon it won't matter!"
"Whatever you say, InuYasha."
A couple hours later, and the sky was laden with stars. The group was all nestled in for the night, even InuYasha was fast asleep next to Kagome. The figure approached the camp cautiously, her shikigami (sp?) circling her. It tapped the miko on the shoulder.
"Uunnn..." Kagome moaned. The person tapped Kagome again, this time a little more forcefully.
"Kagome? Kagome, wake up. I need your help."
Kagome's eyelids began to flutter open. Once her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she saw the figure looming over her.
"Good. You're up. Now come with me."
"Huh? Why should I?" Kagome asked, thoroughly confused. "Why don't you just ask InuYasha?"
"He will be no help in this matter. Only you can assist me." the figure began leading the way out of the camp
'I still don't get it? Why would she need my help? I guess I can follow her and see what's up. It's the least I can do.' Kagome trudged after the woman.
Several minutes later, Kagome found herself in a clearing by the hot spring she and Sango had occupied earlier. She looked to her right and found a small village girl laying on the ground. The girl seemed as if she was dead. Kagome bent down, about to check for any vital signs that would indicate that the girl was still alive, but a voice caught her attention.
"I brought you here for a reason. As you can see, this little girl barely has any life left in her. I'm afraid that I cannot heal her properly. But you, dear Kagome, can. Will you help this little girl or not?"
Kagome had a bad feeling wash over her. She couldn't quite place it, but she knew it wasn't good. She hesitantly reached out for the girl. As she touched the girl's cold skin, she felt a tentacle wrap around her wrist. She gasped as another one found it's way around her neck.
"Good job, priestess. You did well. Now you must finish her off." the newly recognized Naraku said.
'They tricked me! And I fell for it!' Kagome tried to breathe but the tentacles were constricting her airway.
"Of course." the woman replied to the evil demon. "You can take your leave, now. But I won't kill her, yet. Not until InuYasha finds out she is missing. I want him to see his little wench die. I want him to watch her suffer."
"Do as you wish...Kikyo."
