Kagome closed her eyes, concentrating her whole being on the jewel. "I wish... I wish anyone who was affected by Naraku's evil ways, would be put back the way it used to, with no memory of those horrible times." Just as Kagome finished, Midoriko appeared. Kagome stumbled back, landing on her butt.

"M-Midoriko...!" Said person smiled at the young priestess.

"Hello, dear. I'm here to tell you that your wish was pure, but it was also un-pure." Kagome's eye widened, her heart seemed to stop.

"W-what... How?" Midoriko clasped her hands together, a frown tugging at the corners of her mouth.

"Your friends were affected by Naraku." Kagome felt the blood leave her face, realization dawning on her.

"I... I subconsciously..." Midoriko nodded, seeing as the poor girl couldn't finish her sentence.

"And now, you have to face the consequences."


Kagome screamed in pain, she could feel her bones shifting; getting ready for the change. "Midoriko..." Kagome said between pained pants. "Hurts..." Midoriko continued to rub circles on Kagome's back. "Shh, it will be over soon. I promise." Midoriko's voice started fading, she, herself, was also fading. Her time here was coming to an end.

"You'll be okay... Just live, survive!" Kagome let out another pained scream, her vision gaining black splotches.

"No.." Kagome wheezed. "I need... You!" Kagome's head fell to the ground, her vision finally becoming dark.


When Kagome awoke, she was on pavement, yellow pavement she might add. She slowly stood up, swaying a little. "Midoriko?" Kagome didn't know what she was hoping for, but it definitely wasn't the silence that surrounded her. She walked forward, thinking maybe there was a village nearby. But what she found had her cover her mouth. A village, littered with huge, human looking giants. Only one thought crossed her mind.

'What is this?'
