Love Removed

Chapter 4

I hope you like it

I had help from Silver Monarch.

Inuyasha broke out of the trance Kikyou had put him under at the sound and smell of Kagome and looked down at the priestess, Kikyou's naked body under his, him pumping in and out of her, he stopped immediately and got up and started getting dressed.

The dead priestess let out a startled squeak and backed up covering herself shocked that he had stopped, he had already done this for her 4 times before.

"What did you do to me wench," he demanded of the dead miko, once he was dressed.

"I can no longer sustain this body of mine on the little life energy of the souls I need another's energy given willingly or I shall parish, you willingly offered yourself to me to help me to live."

"I would never allow you that pleasure of my own free will, I need to find Kagome."

"Please Inuyasha, she is not around here, I made sure of it. Please lay with me so I might sustain this body of mine a bit longer," she begged.

"You are mistaken, she was just here, and I smelled and heard her. I must find her and explain this to her. Explain that you were controlling me, I must try to gain her forgiveness," he then starts walking away in the direction Kagome had gone.

She then threw herself at his feet, grabbing his ankles with inhuman strength.

"Please Inuyasha, I have but two days left," she begged.

"Find someone else to sustain your life-force; you will not get any more from me," he responded coldly.

"Please Inuyasha do not let me die," she pleaded.

"No, I do not wish a walking corpse for my mate, Kagome loves me for me, and doesn't want to change me, you want me human," with that he kicked her hands away from his ankle and ran away from her at full speed following Kagome's scent, leaving the dead priestess alone and crying in despair.

Little did he know he was headed in the wrong direction for she was not in the direction she had gone when she ran from seeing him with Kikyou.

Meanwhile Kagome and Sesshomaru had arrived at the camp sight and had woken Miroku and Sango, who were surprised to see Sesshomaru there.

Kagome looked into Sango's confused eyes and said, "I don't believe we are safe with Inuyasha any longer, Sesshomaru has offered his aide, he has given his word he will help us, we must hurry though since Inuyasha might return at any minute."

Sango understood the seriousness in Kagome's eyes and voice though she sensed that there was still much Kagome had not told them, "That sounds good Kagome we will come with you."

Miroku nodded his agreement as well, "that seems wise Kagome, though you must explain the full reasons to this sudden decision."

Kagome nodded to Miroku and Sango as she picked up the sleeping Shippou, "and I will explain everything in detail."

Through all this Sesshomaru was silent and simply watched everyone's reactions, the monk and demon slayer did not trust him fully yet, he thought to himself, that might cause a problem, not a large one though.

Quickly they packed their belongings, and readied to leave.

Miroku and Sango sat astride the transformed Kirara while Shippou, who had not wakened to any of this slept in Kagome's arms. Kagome would travel with Sesshomaru on his cloud.

Then they were off with Sesshomaru leading the way to his palace.

Meanwhile Inuyasha had found the place where Kagome had met with Sesshomaru, and he growled that the scent ended there. He quickly headed back to where he believed the camp to be to tell the rest of the pack what had happened, so they all could go rescue Kagome or so he thought until he stepped into the clearing and smelled the scents there.

Kagome and Sesshomaru had been with the group no more than 10 minutes ago and there was not blood anywhere so he was certain they were alive as well as Kagome, though it angered him that they, and especially Kagome were near Sesshomaru.

He headed west, figuring that he would eventually come across them; since that was the direction they seemed to be going.
