Chapter 1 : vanish
**************************************************************************** ***
Note : the battle with Naraku hasn't happen yet , the story is set after episode 54
It was dark outside , Inuyasha and the rest of the gang were sitting around a fire Sango and Miroku were already asleep and Shippo was snoring loudly while lying on Kagome's sleeping back
Kagome was lying inside the sleeping back , she was starring at Inuyasha who didn't even notice it. Inuyasha was looking deep into the fire , he had a thinking expression on his face.
' He is acting strange again , I keep having the feeling there is something wrong but every time I ask he tells me it's none of my business ' ; Kagome wondered what the problem could be but in the end she sighed and turned around in her sleeping pack trying to fall asleep.
Inuyasha was still deep in thought as he still starred into the flames.
~flashback~
Inuyasha was lying motion less on the ground when Kagome arrived he was badly injured of Kanna's rebounce ability , he tried to cut the Wound Of Wind Kagura made but when he tried Kanna appeared and bounced his attack straight back at him, he could barely see but was able to smell Kagome's arrival.
"...K..Kagome.. "
' Thank god, Inuyasha is still alive '
Kagome started to crawl up to Inuyasha.
' Really thank god.. '
Kagome looked Inuyasha into his eyes as she faintly smiled at him.
' But how did this happen ? Why is that Shikon Shard in Naraku's hand ?
That's.. the piece that Kikyo took from me , it must be Kikyo who gave the piece to Naraku
The pieces we collected desperately , Kikyo is the one who handed Naraku the pieces
..But.. even now no matter how cold Kikyo threats him, Inuyasha likes Kikyo, even if he suffers like this, he likes her , Kikyo '
Kagome tried to stop the tears from flowing over her face but when she heard Naraku talking to her she looked up.
"Woman , Tell Inuyasha, if he's going to bear a grudge, then bear it against Kikyo... That Inuyasha's death is the desire of Kikyo "
Kagome clinched her fist as she could feel anger rising within her, she reached back for an arrow and graphed her bow from the ground. "Your words, whenever I hear them, sicken me "
she pulled out the arrow and stretched her bow with it aiming for Naraku.
"Stop it Kagome ! " Shippo tried what he could but yet deep inside he knew that he couldn't stop Kagome's anger. "Like what happened with Tetsusaiga, that arrow will backfire at you. "
"That's alright, my arrow only hits the bad guys ! "
Kagome fired her arrow and as it flew straight at Naraku it started to glow. But instead of hitting the bad guys Kanna tried to absorb it with her mirror to cast it back at her. Kagome's eyes widened as she thought that it really would bounce back. Miroku who started to wake up got himself up from the ground to see the situation. "The arrow.. "
"The arrow is getting sucked up by the mirror ! "
Once the arrow got inside the mirror Kanna took it back in her arms, the mirror still glowed and started to make a weird sound. "Kagome's arrow, I couldn't bounce it back "
Kagura looked up rather confused. "What happened ? How come you can't send it back ? "
"This arrow, is made up of souls, the mirror has gotten full, if I don't let the souls out the mirror will break "
the was a large crack and the mirror burst, the souls started to flow out but nobody noticed a shard from the mirror that broke out of the glass, Kagome got her soul back, Shippo covered his eyes and Miroku got down again, the light was to bright, the shard flew together with a soul but left it when it flew above Kagome and Inuyasha, the shard went down inside Inuyasha's wound, Inuyasha didn't feel anything in the beginning, he was still to much in pain to feel anything at that time. In no time the villagers got their souls back as well.
The last thing Inuyasha could remember were Naraku's last words before he went away, yet he felt something strange inside of him , but he didn't care about it at that time he was only thinking about Kikyo.
~End flashback~
Inuyasha sighed , he turned his head to Kagome and starred at her for a little while, he knew exactly what she was thinking , she has been worrying sick about him, she had her reasons for it , I wasn't long before he had been acting weird and yet even know he didn't even knew the source of his problem.
~Flash back [ A.n. : yes and there are many more where that came from :P ] ~
The morning after the battle with Naraku Inuyasha was lying on a bed, he had been thinking about the whole situation and mostly about Kikyo. He just couldn't get Naraku's words out his head.
' It will be soon , this jewel will be complete soon , Kikyo gave me the Shikon shards with her own hands..'
Inuyasha still couldn't believe it when he heard these words. ' Why did you, Kikyo ? Naraku has become even more powerful using the Shikon shard What were you thinking ? You hate me that much , Kikyo ? '
At that moment something snapped inside of him, his head started to hurt more than it did before and the wound started to ache as well, Inyasha tossed his head around as the sweat started to drip of his face. He had multiple flashes going through him , he started to feel several things that he normally didn't feel at all, then they stopped and he started to hear a voice inside of him, he heard more voices , was he going mad ?
' Kill them.. '
' I must protect them , I'm right now the only one in a good condition.. '
' I hope Inuyasha will be ok.. '
The other voices went slowly silent as there was just one voice left..
' Kill them , I know that you won't be able to hold back .. soon it is time '
The voice sounded familiar , it was then that he found out that the voice was his own..
' Kill them only then are you able to be free, kill everything , everyone .. kill them for yourself, for your own freedom '
It was then that awoke, the voices disappeared like the wind. Inuyasha opened his eyes immediately feeling the pain in his chest, at that time Shippo came in.
~End flashback~
Inuyasha sighed once more as he turned his gaze back to the fire... He had been having strange dreams and voices ever since the fight with Naraku but, every time the voices grew louder, he had woken up from the nightmares in witch he killed the people of the village where he killed them as a full demon, but instead of waking up he continued killing till there was nothing left. His fear of killing Kagome and the others grew every night, he couldn't sop the voices from coming. He had the feeling that this was his problem, the fear of killing Kagome was the reason that he didn't tell her, she may be worrying sick but it was the only way...
Inuyasha stood up and walked back towards the tree , he sat down and leaned against it as he closed his eyes and fell asleep...
~dream scene~
Inuyasha was walking through the forest, at the horizon he could see the village, the air was red and the houses were on fire...
Inuyasha started to run to the village but found out that all the villagers were lying on the ground, they were all dead, red stripes were visible through their clothing and everywhere were puddles of red blood, in witch the bodies lay...
Inuyasha eyes opened wide as he walked through the fields of dead bodies, the smell of death and blood started to make him sick, yet he got more worried about his friends, then he heard a scream As a reaction to it he took of towards the location of the sound, his mouth fell right open when he saw who the person was that was screaming. It was Sango, she was lying with her back against the wall, the wall had a large red blood stain on it that went down to where she sat, she had blood stains allover her cheek and the front had 3 large red stripes...
Inuyasha ran over to her he shook her gently, trying to wake her up but deep inside he knew he was to late, Sango's blank stare looked him straight into the eyes and he could feel her pain somehow...
Inuyasha closed her eyes and stood up, when he turned around he found another surprise... Shippo was lying in a puddle of red blood, facedown...
Inuyasha looked down at the ground at this sight, the young fox demon should not have been killed yet.. he was too young to die yet...
At that time he heard another voice...
"Kagome ! "
It sounded like... Miroku. Inuyasha took of again towards the scene where he heard the voice coming from but, once again he was too late, Miroku lay on his back on the ground, he also had 3 large slashes in his chest, the blood slowly started to spread out on the ground, Inuyasha wanted to walk to his friend but when he heard another female scream he took off again...
He was sure about it this time it had to be Kagome, it couldn't be someone else...
When he arrived at the scene his eyes opened up in horror once more... Blood dripped on the roots of the great oak tree, Inuyasha couldn't believe what he was seeing... An arrow stuck out in the air, it had hit Kagome right into the heart , she was pinned against the tree where he was cursed long ago...
Inuyasha fell on his knees, his hands hanging faintly on his side, tears dripped down on the hard cold ground as he still could not believe what had happened...
It was then that something else happened, something was on his hands... Inuyasha raised his hands , at the sight of the being covered with blood he collapsed...
' No not again.... no '
"NOO ! "
~end dream scene~
Inuyasha's eyes snapped open , he had dreamed again... he raised his hands checking if they weren't really covered with blood, there wasn't any trace but still Inuyasha could smell it... He looked over at Kagome who was still sleeping suddenly inside him he started to get the urge to just walk over to her and slice her with the claws... He closed his eyes trying to fight the urge when he reopened them they glowed red for only a few seconds... Something was wrong , really wrong... He could feel the urge of killing slowly take over him and the voices started to return as well...
' Kill them... Kill them for your own freedom... kill everything and everyone ... have no mercy '
He slowly got up , he couldn't stay here... what if Kagome woke up and he would attack her... He needed to get out of here, for the sake of himself and the others...
___
Kagome slowly opened her eyes as the sun shone on her face, she sat up straight and stretched her arms yawning...
She looked around , Miroku, Sango and Shippo were still asleep, she looked around again but found no trace of Inuyasha and none of Tetsusaiga... She felt that something was wrong, the wind blew in her face as she slowly got up...
