I've Had Enough!!

"The Jewel of Four Souls… The Shikon No Tama…" Kagome sighed let her head hang low as she thought to herself, "The thing that's keeping me from my time and my family and everything I've ever held dear." With a gloomy cloud hanging over her head as their group walked, she thought all hope was lost. That was until she caught a certain Hanyou eyeing her. As she looked up, the white haired half demon blushed lightly, and flung his head around. She giggled quietly, and felt the 'Poor me' attitude lift from her.

She didn't know why, and she didn't know how, but somewhere along the way she had fallen in love with the arrogant dog. She couldn't understand the 'why' part mostly. He was mean, and a jerk, and cocky, and didn't even car about her. Mostly, he was still in love with Kikyou. She sighed as she felt disappointed again. She should want to kill the undead priestess, but she couldn't bring herself to hate her. She did make InuYasha happy, and she had loved him first.

Suddenly, her senses went into overdrive as she felt the presence of a shard. "Inu Yasha, I can feel a sacred shard." Everyone tensed, and Kirara grew to a huge size in a burst of flames. Sango and Miroqu mounted the huge cat, ready for Kagome's coordinates. InuYasha pulled out Tetsusaiga, and scowled at the grassy plains that stretched out in front of them, "Where could this shard be in there's nothing but-" InuYasha's eyes grew, and his mouth was set in a grim frown. He looked up to see Soul Collectors envelop the sky. He whispered, "I smell…"

Kagome grimaced; she knew exactly what he smelt. Shippou cowered, and hopped onto Kagome's shoulder, "Kagome, what is that?" As a person appeared before their very eyes, Kagome spat, "That, Shippou, is Kikyou." Kikyou stood about 10 feet in front of them, and Kagome didn't even need to look over at InuYasha to know his expression. It would be small mouth, soft features, and that look in his eyes. The one Kagome wished could be for herself, but was always for Kikyou. Kikyou pulled something out of her Kimono, and everyone tensed again. But instead of arrows, or some item of which to destroy them, she pulled out the almost complete Shikon No Tama. Everyone gasped. It was complete except for the few pieces that hung from a bottle on Kagome's neck.

"I have a proposition for you…" Her calm voice almost seemed to caress his ears, InuYasha thought. He shivered slightly, and tried to glare, "What do you want?" He tried to make himself sound angry and full of spite, but it came out much more pitiful and weak; like he was tired. Kikyou smiled, and looked from each of the people. From Miroqu, to Sango, to Shippou, to Kagome, and then lingered on InuYasha before turning her gaze back to Kagome. "I will give you my jewel shards if you give me my reincarnation." Everyone inhaled sharply, and Shippou stood up, fists out, "We're not just gunna give you Kagome you fiend!!"

Kikyou's cold, dead stare turned to the small fox, "The almost complete jewel should be more than enough pay for the life of one puny Miko." She looked at InuYasha, "All you wanted from this girl was to gather the shards, and now that you have the jewel, you should have no more need for her, am I right?" Miroqu yelled out, his temper flaring as he saw Kagome slumping in one spot, not saying a word, "That is not right! Kagome is our friend, and we would never just give her to you!! She's a human being, and not something to trade and barter!" Sango, Kirara, and Shippou nodded fiercely. Sango whipped her head over towards InuYasha, a glare twisting her pretty face, "Isn't that right, InuYasha?" She spat at him. InuYasha looked over to the silent Kagome, and nodded, "Kikyou, no matter how much we need those shards, we can't just-" He was interrupted, when Kagome looked up and whispered, "I'll go with you Kikyou." Everyone, even InuYasha, looked at Kagome, and yelled, "What?!?!" Kagome said a little louder, "We need those shards, and if all she wants is me, I'll do it." InuYasha grabbed Kagome's arm, and yelled, "We're not just gunna let you go with her!! She's gunna kill you!!" Kikyou smiled evilly, knowing that she wasn't going to die. At least, not just yet.
