disclaimer: I don't neither Inu-Yasha or Evanescence...SO STOP BUGGING ME ABOUT IT!
Woot...no comments yet, but whatever...that just means no Slipping in Sweet Sickness
Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there
...Watching me, wanting me
...I can feel you pull me down
...Fearing you, loving you
...I won't let you pull me down

The shinidamachu crowded about Kikyo like insects. Kikyo stood at the peak of a cliff, watching over it to see her lost long love with her reincarnation. They were in a grassy field filled with purple flowers. They were on their backs, gazing into the soft blue sky. They were talking to each other. They were holding each other's hands.
The dead miko watched, a great deal of sadness starting to weigh on her shoulders. Why did her lover not love her anymore? Kikyo never wanted to accept it, but she was forced to. Inu-Yasha wasn't in love with her anymore. He was now in love with her reincarnation. But then Kikyo smirked. He probably only loved her because of that reason. Because she was Kikyo's reincarnation. Inu-Yasha only didn't love Kikyo anymore because she was dead, right? The dead miko then sighed. No, he didn't just love Kagome because she was her reincarnation. Maybe it was because she was much gentler, happier, more likeable, more...
...alive...
Kikyo pursed her lips into an ugly grimace. Yes that was probably it. It was because Kagome was, in fact, alive. While Kikyo, on the other hand, was the walking dead who took the souls of unfortunate dead girls to stay animated. Maybe Inu-Yasha didn't like the fact that Kikyo was taking the dead girl's souls. The dead miko heaved out another deep sigh. If only she was truely alive. Then Inu-Yasha would certainly come back to her. As Kikyo watched over the cliff, she growled a bit when she saw Kagome peck Inu-Yasha on the cheek. The hanyou blushed a bit but kissed her back on the cheek. Kikyo huffed and stomped off into the forest, her shinidamachu following like lost puppies. The dead miko growled again when she felt hot tears at the edge of her eyes.
"Stop that!" she murmured to herself. "Stop crying now! You're not going to get Inu-Yasha back by crying!" Kikyo wiped the tears away angrily with the heel of her hand. "You just gotta think about this. Try to figure out what to do."
"Talking to yourself again Kikyo? You'd better stop soon, or else people will think you're going insane."
Kikyo stopped and went completely still. "Back again, Naraku?"
Indeed, it was Naraku. The hanyou walked outside of his hiding place between the thick trees. He wore his normal white baboon pelt. "You were crying over Inu-Yasha weren't you, Kikyo?" Underneath his mask, Kikyo could easily see that he was smiling.
"Why would you need to know? More important, why would you want to know?" Kikyo asked, turning her body fully to face the hanyou.
Naraku's smile got wider. "Well, because if so, I do know what's troubling you. You're upset because Inu-Yasha loves your reincarnation now and he's forgotten all about you. And now you want to be truly alive again. Is that correct, Kikyo?" The dead miko stayed silent and didn't nod, but Naraku took it as a yes, so he continued on. "And I know how to help you."
"Is that so?"
"Yes."
Kikyo smiled a bit. "Two questions. What's the catch and how are you going to do it?"
"There's no catch. And two, you'll see. All you have to do is follow me," Naraku said quietly, although he was still smiling under his mask. The shinidamachu that surrounded Kikyo clicked in a fast manner, meaning that they didn't think that it was such a good idea. But Kikyo didn't listen. She walked towards Naraku who started to walk off. They walked through the thick forest for some time, until they came to a bright light, which meant there was a clearing. Once they entered through the light, Kikyo saw Naraku's castle right in front of them. The shinidamachu continued to click on and Kikyo continued to ignore them. They entered the castle, which was thick with purple miasma. For some strange reason, it didn't affect Kikyo at all.
As they walked, Naraku thought about his plan. The hanyou didn't really talk to Kikyo on the way through the castle. He wanted to kill her right now and get it over with, but there was one thing that still made him unable to do so.
Onigumo's heart.
Yes, the heart of that wretched bandit had somehow gotten back in him so he again wasn't able to kill Kikyo. Because he loved her. Which annoyed Naraku to the bone. Maybe today he could get rid of it. This is what he thought as they walked thought he castle. Naraku looked at Kikyo out of the corner of his eyes. She had her normal serious yet bored look on her face as they walked on. Finally, they came to a room. Naraku gestured for Kikyo go inside and she did. But when her shinidamachu entered the doorway, they suddenly squealed and were pulverized.
"A barrier?" Kikyo asked as she watched the remains of her shinidamachu fall to the ground. "I thought you said that I was going to become alive."
Naraku chuckled, and took his baboon pelt off. He focused his crimson eyes on Kikyo. "Yes. You need your own soul, not the soul of dead girls Kikyo. So, say goodbye to your shinidamachu, for you won't be seeing them again."
Kikyo still stared at the remains. "Goodbye." But then she looked around the room. It was almost completely empty - except for one stray blanket that laid on the floor.
"So, you want to live, right?" Naraku asked, edging nearer towards her. Kikyo frowned. His voice...there was something ringing in voice that Kikyo didn't like. But she didn't know what it was.
"Yes," she replied quietly. Naraku was getting closer to her and it was starting to give her the creeps. "You should well know that by now."
Without warning Naraku grabbed Kikyo. He wrapped his arms around her torso and smiled. "Well, maybe after this you won't be."
"What?" Kikyo asked, trying to shove him off. She really should've listened to her shinidamachu before they had been pulverized to shreds. "I knew that I had a bad feeling when I followed you!"
"You're getting softer," Naraku whispered into her ear, making a chill go down her spine. Now Kikyo knew what the tone was. There was lust ringing through his voice. "Being dead has now made you much softer somehow. Kikyo...you are surely aware of Onigumo's heart lying inside me. And you are also surely aware that I hate but love you. So now, I'm going to try and get that love for you away. Maybe if I finally do what Omigumo wanted to do, his heart will finally have what it wanted and will leave me alone." With that, he roughly pushed Kikyo to the ground. Naraku pinned her there and licked his lips hungrily. And all Kikyo could do was watch helplessly.
Kikyo moaned a bit before getting up. Everywhere was aching, especially her head. She looked around and saw nothing but complete darkness. The dead miko jumped a bit when she felt something stir beside her. But Kikyo eventually calmed down when she saw it was Naraku and suddenly remembered when had happened. Naraku had raped her. But, somewhere in the middle of it, she had felt something inside her that liked it. Was she over Inu-Yasha now? More importantly, how was she still alive with her shinidamachu dead? Kikyo looked in surprise to see that some were lying beside her, still carrying little souls in their insect-like legs. The dead miko quietly got up, gathered her clothes, and was about to go through the door when a voice interrupted her.
"Running off from me already?"
She stopped dead in her tracks as Naraku grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer to him. "That was pretty fun, and I knew that you liked it. Well, at least, you started to ."
Kikyo smiled grimly. "I must be going now. Back to Inu-Yasha." But she couldn't, for Naraku had pulled her even closer to his naked (a/n: EW! ) form. Kikyo looked up at his face. "You know, I think Onigumo's heart still longs for me. You just made it want me more. Which means now you'll never be able to kill me."
Naraku smiled back. "Nope. You're wrong."
"Huh?"
"It did get rid of it. He finally had gotten what he'd wanted. Now he can rest in peace and leave me in peace."
Suddenly the souls within Kikyo forced themselves outside her body, screaming in delight to finally be free. Kikyo fell to her knees and wrapped her arms around her, trying to make the souls stop from coming out. Her plan failed. The souls ripped out of her body and flew up to heaven. In mere moments, Kikyo's body was nothing but an empty shell. She fell to her knees, barely alive. Naraku's evil smile grew wider and he lashed one of his tentacles at her, cutting her body in half. The last thing Kikyo saw before she died was her own soul -her real soul- bobbing up to the heavens. Free at last.

Ya...as you all know already, I hate Kikyo. And I was really lazy for this one and I hate writing a whole rape scene, so I skipped it. Which is the best thing to do, or else my fingers might have come off my hands and went on strike. Same with my brain. So pweeease comment please!
