I do not own anything of Naruto or Inuyasha. So please don't sue.
I hope you enjoy this, as this is my first story I would appreciate your reviews, and helpful critiques if/when needed. Thank you!
"Kagome."A whisper like voice was heard. "Kagome." The voice repeated getting louder every time.
A flutter of eyelash movements started, and a pair of blue eyes just stared into a pink like sky.
'Where am I? What happened?'
"Kagome. Just breathe in and out slowly." A musical voice explained to the left of the body.
Said body, breathed in and out, and slowly got up to a sitting position with a slight moan. "I thought I was dead?" A turn to her left showed a shimmering image of a shrine priestess and warrior. "Midoriko?"
"Yes. Kagome, I am Midoriko. You must have a few questions for me."
A surprised look crossed Kagome's face. She then looked at her hands, touched her chest, felt herself breathe and exhale. "I thought we all died?" She looked into Midoriko's eyes, and continued speaking. "I remember that Naraku had killed everyone, and with Inuyasha's last breath he wounded Naraku, almost fatally. Then we both struck out at each other. I had an arrow in my hand, and he used his own fist. I stuck his heart that was lying on the ground because Kagura had died, and it was laying on top of her; and Naraku had his hand go through my chest."
Midoriko nodded, but then led them both to a couch to finish the conversation. "Yes, Kagome. You did destroy Naraku, and you ALMOST died, because of the wound you received. But the Jewel has you in a sort of stasis field right now. Not dead. Not alive. I believe the Jewel wants to keep you alive..."
"What! But why? What will happen?" Kagome shouted in shock. "What reason could there be for keeping me alive?"
"I honestly don't know the reason behind what the Jewel wants. I know that, your healing powers are extraordinary, along with your priestess powers. I think the Jewel just wants to keep you as it's protector, and it to protect you."
As Midoriko was explaining this, she started to fade away, and a pink mist replaced her. Kagome stood up in surprise, she was not expecting Midoriko to just disappear like that, when a mystical voice, seeming like it was coming from the mist started to talk to her in her mind.
"Kagome, yes we want you to protect us and for us to protect you."
"Us?"
"Yes, all the souls that live inside the Shikon No Tama. Midoriko is not the only one who lives in here, and we'd like to explain this to you. She is ONE part of the Shikon, therefore may not know what the rest of us wants with you. There are currently SIX parts of the Shikon. The other Five include Aramitama (Courage), Nigimitama (Friendship), Kushimitama (Wisdom), Sakimitama (Love) and a soul of a Demon called Death. We want you to hold us until we deem that you no longer need us."
"But why in the world would I need you now? Why would I need to carry an essence of Courage, Friendship, Wisdom, Love, of Death and a Healing of a priestess?" Kagome didn't need this. Couldn't she just die in peace like everyone else? 'Why in the world can't I be normal, even in dying?' she thought to herself sadly.
"We want to grant you a little bit of a reward for all that you've done and have been through.
Midoriko wants to grant you the power of the Healing art. Courage wants to grant you the power of Strength. Friendship wants to grant you Teleportation. Wisdom wants to grant you the power to see one's soul. Love wants to give you another chance at life, therefore you're not going to die right now. Even the Demon Death wants to give you his power, it's like the sword Tenseiga and goes along with Miroriko's healing arts. So you will receive the Tenseiga Eyes.
After we explain all you need to know, we will absorb into your body and become you. Do you understand these gifts we are giving you Kagome?"
"Yes, I do. And I humbly thank you for all you have done." Kagome bowed to the mist. "But I do have a question. Where will I be going? Will I stay here or go home?"
"You will be sent to a different time. It will not be either of the times you now call home. You will however be reverted back to age 13 and you will remember your times here. Now. We must go. Farewell Kagome."
The next thing Kagome knew was she was waking up in the middle of a forest and it looked like there was a landslide. She looked closer to the rocks and her eyes adjusted onto something... It looked like the Underlings of the Undead were crawling around. She waved her hand over the beings and they fled.
Kagome knowing that she can teleport, teleported under the debris to find a body of a boy. She touched his forehead then teleported the both of them back up to the land.
Kagome looked him over and noticed half his body was smashed, an eye was missing, and he should have died. Her hand glowed a purple, not the pink she was used to and slowly went down from the boys face to his feet healing him. She then touched his forehead and used her wisdom to see what had happened.
Tears were going down Kagome's face like a waterfall, "Young man. You saved your friend by pushing him out of the way, and then selfishly gave your eye to him. I am proud to give you, your life back."
A weak moan passed from the boy's lips, and two eyes slowly opened..."Who...Who are you? Am I dead?"
"No. I am Kagome Higurashi, and I have healed you. What is your name brave one?"
"Obito...Obito Uchiha"
