Broken Remnants

Chapter Two

Emerging , Alternate Paths

By Inuyashas Youkai

The days following the forsaken night, everything as it seemed had appeared in returning to normal , but the miko's eyes screamed otherwise , and whispered that of the time coming was drawing near , one which as well sort of brought a peaceful haze upon on their friends aura. Upon the moment when the slayer, Sango had enough wanting to pull the hanyou aside , and call him on it, making him aware what the previous actions may have done, another interrupted but with the intentions of drawing out one that was lingering within the trees before any acknowledged it.

"Kikyo, come . We must speak , for I have something that needs to be spoken to you alone, and I would like it known while I have the chance to say it "

The others have of course had followed the sights of her direction, falling on the miko that was know coming from the encircling foliage, and picking up on her swift nod. Although , as the two began to part for the distance that their words could no longer be heard the ones that remained fought with their shock with their instincts scolding to stop them, but before they could the two were already gone..

"Sango.."the monk said breaking the silence , questioning what the oblivious could not..

"Yea .. ?"The slayer responded .

"What was it that you were gonna say before Kagome interrupted , do you know something that we should know.."Miroku considered by the way the earlier events played out.

"Yes , but I am not even sure as to what that is anymore .. "Sango replied .

"What the hell is that supposed to mean , Sango!" the ponderingly quite hanyou up to this point scoffed , catching the last part of what was being said as his eyes was still pinned to the spot where the two miko's once stood.

"Just what I said , I know that somethings wrong , and that even more, something really bad is about to happen.. Just not sure what , and I am guessing its what she wanted so that whatever its is being planned cannot be stopped.." The slayer retorted ..

"Who , my dear Sango ?"

"Kagome..."

Kagome & Kikyo

The two Miko's stood upon what seemed to be a overhang cliff , overlooking the village below, and stopped knowing that their distance away was adequate before the one unfeeling spoke..

"Alright , what is it that you need to speak to me, Kagome.."

" When the time come I will ask you to do something , and if you wish for this nightmare to end you'd be smart to do so, regardless of what is said or done to prevent it . It is all I ask before my time here has ended when I have done what is needed of me , and I no longer exist within time ..You were right Kikyo I don't belong here, but I will do what I came here to finish , then I will no longer be in the way of anyone's happiness .."

"What is it that you intend to do?.."

"Know that things will be as they were, as they should be without me..It will end , all of this.."

"I will do as you say , but what of Inuyasha ? Foolish is it not , if found out then he will surely stop you especially if the look in your eyes is any indication.."

"That is why Inuyasha, or the others aren't to know as to what I have done .. All will be understood once I am already gone.."

"Your half of our soul , it is unsettled .."

"It is why I must do what I need to, before I can no longer purify the jewel.."

"Alright then, tell me what you wish for me to do.."

"You will know when it's time , and the moment's coming soon.."Kagome finished gazing over the era that at one point soon she's be saying goodbye too, before another voice was heard , joining the rushed footsteps..

"Kagome !"

Turning , the one who's name was called found themselves face to face with a quite angry hanyou pulling her towards him, and away from the others, leaving quite the expressions on the faces of the one 's left behind. Once far enough away that the humans or any demon in sight couldn't hear as to what was said, the hanyou gave a demand in a piercing growl, voicing what needed to be known ..

"Inuyasha ?"

"Don't Inuyasha me- " the hanyou began before his words fell silent when her eyes met his unveiled for him to see, everything , as she with his lost concentration allowed her hands to fall on the accursed necklace , and started to pull it upwards over his head when his clawed fingertips lingered over hers to stop it..

"Kagome, what have you done.." Inuyasha muttered while with one of his hands running across her chin , looking to her eyes as Sango had said , finding the truth of what they were saying even if Kagome wasn't saying anything at all as the other hand still held hers, while holding onto the subjugation piece..

Those eyes told of his worst nightmare , they were saying goodbye. Whatever it was that Kagome had done or planned will take her away from him for good..

"Nothing Inuyasha , absolutely nada , zip, zilch. "

"Your lying , why do you hide from me , Kagome I-"

"What ! I am not keeping anything from you , nor will I ever!"

"Kagome , then why do I get from the look in your eyes that it isn't so ? "

Briskly turning , Kagome whirled separating herself from him before activating the necklace around that of his neck by the ill fated words ...

"Sit Boy!

"Grrroooowwwwwllll!" Inuyasha spat , fighting his body from going downwards , then walking stiffly towards where Kagome stood, and in quickened time because of the effort resisting the power that bound them, the hanyou began to change..
