Chapter Four What Happened Next?
A set of major sharp claws raked down across Kagome, from her right shoulder to her left side. She fell to the ground on her back with a pool of blood flowing around her. Her once bright eyes became dull and a lighter shade as her soul slowly left her body.
Inuyasha grinned in happiness, a cruel and sadistic happiness. He stared down at the dying girl. His happiness rose seeing her blank eyes. Slowly, he turned around and walked away from the one he left dying. His nose and ears sought out more blood.
As soon as the demon was a safe distance away, a different person came out from behind the trees. They went towards Kagome and examined her wounds. Deep gashes assorted the petite body along with small ones.
"Man, he did a number on you now didn't he?" Blue eyes, eyes that held the color of the ocean and the color of the night sky, looked for the more serious injury. "I think it's this one right here," she said as she placed her hands over the wound that went from her shoulder to side. From her small and dainty a light of blues and purples formed over the wound. Soon, all that was left was four scars that could barely be seen by human eyes.
Then the girl went to the next wound, and then the next till all that was left was the small scratches that didn't cause much harm. She wiped her hands on a piece of cloth she took from her pant pocket. With her now clean hands, she wiped the small gleam of sweat off of her forehead, along with moving her long banes to the side of her face and behind her slightly pointed ear. But her hair just went back and covered half her face again. "That took a little more magic than I thought it would."
Brown eyes began to open. At first everything was blurry and the girl questioned "where am I?" When she was clearly able to see again, she noticed a girl staring down at her with blue eyes. Short brown hair that reached her chin covered half her face, with blonde tips that covered 1/3 of her hair. Her face looked young, like she was a teenager not much older than 17.
"Who are you?" Kagome tried sitting up, but she ended up needing help from the stranger. With her back against the rock behind her, she looked eye to eye with the kneeling girl. "You can call me Taski. I found you here after I smelled a huge amount of blood with huge gashes covering your body. So I decided to help you."
Kagome looked down at her shirt to notice claw marks had torn her shirt to shreds and that around her was drying blood, along with all over her shirt. "How did this-," then she remembered everything. From the demon priestess who had turn Inuyasha demon to when he left her here to die. Tears again flooded her eyes as she recalled all the events. Taski wrapped her arms around the sobbing girl and tried to comfort her with the best of her abilities.
"How did you heal me if I was so bad?" Kagome asked as she pushed herself away from the other person and leaned against the rock with all her weight. "My mother was a healer and I happened to learn all her knowledge and gain all her abilities. "So how did you smell my blood? Are you a demon?" Taski laughed and switched her position so she sat on her knees sitting face to face to Kagome.
"No, I'm not demon. My great grandfather was a demon and my great grandmother was a human healer. They met one day while he was seriously injured. Well, even after the whole bloodline thing, I somehow have many of those abilities demons have too along with my healing one. So I'm sort of a demon, but not completely."
There was a silence in the air as all the information sunk in Kagome's brain. Then a thought hit her. "Did you find my friends?" Taski nodded and helped Kagome up, since she seemed to have trouble standing. "They're safe. Your friend, Kirara, carried a few of them to a safer area and I carried the little kit. They aren't that far away from here."
With Kagome limping, she placed most of her weight on her new friend. As they were walking to her other friends, she couldn't get Inuyasha off her mind. "What could he be doing right now?" Kagome asked herself in her mind as images of the blood thirsting demon attacking innocent people filled her mind. She tried as hard as she could to get those images out of her mind, but they stayed in the back of her mind to haunt her.
"There they are," Taski said pointing towards where Sango was placing more wood in the fire and two sleeping demons and a monk were sleeping. Kagome snapped out of her thoughts as she heard Sango call her over by the fire. Taski and Kagome sat by the other woman as soon as they reached a spot beside her. "Are you alright Kagome?" Kagome nodded a yes as stared into the fire. The three girls talked until the night got dark and they needed rest. So they al settled on the ground to sleep and fell asleep faster than they ever did before.
But even sleep couldn't keep the disturbing images of Inuyasha off her mind.

I'm sorry for anyone who was waiting for this chapter. My computer broke when I was half way done and got deleted. Now I have to use the family computer, which I can only use late at night. (
