Chapter: My name is…what?
Izayoi held her head in pain as she picked herself off of the dirt ground. Memories of what had occurred earlier flooded back to her and she quickly looked around for her daughter.
"Sunoo!" she called in fear, her eyes darting to and fro in a desperate attempt to find her lost daughter.
"Shh, you wouldn't want to wake the kid up," she heard a familiar voice say and jumped in surprise at the closeness of it.
"So, you're Inuyasha's wench huh? Where is the half-breed?" Bankotsu asked casually from beside her.
"I have a name and I'm in no way, shape, or form Inuyasha's wench," she retorted in disgust, turning her back towards him.
"Well, Kagome where is the half-breed?" he said sarcastically, emphasizing on her name.
"I-is that my name?" she whispered silently to herself, her eyes opened wide in thought.
"What? Wench what is wrong with you?" Bankotsu irritably and grabbed her shoulders roughly.
Izayoi simply ignored the foul-mouth mercenary and continued to ponder on the said name. 'Is that really my name? It sounds so familiar, and it feels so right,' she thought in frustration when she felt a headache coming on. Soon, she was cut off by an annoyed Bankotsu.
"Wench, I asked you a question," he screamed crossly, pushing her to the dirty ground.
Izayoi let out a cry of protest from the sudden force. "My name is not wench," she snapped loudly.
"I-I don't know what my name is?" she whispered in sudden realization. Her eyes glazed over in deep thought and sadness.
"What are you talking about?" Bankotsu asked in utter confusion and frustration. 'What the hell is this bitch talking about? What the hell is wrong with her? Why is the dog not with her?' these questions plus more all ran through his head as he thought about what the saddened miko had said.
"W-what is my name?" he heard her whisper and almost was shocked by the pained look on her face when she turned to him.
"I thought it was Ka, Ka something?" Bankotsu thought hard, he never was good with names, especially enemies' names.
"Kagome!" he shouted happily, perking up a bit at his sudden remembrance. His happiness quickly began to recede when he saw the miko on the ground clutching her head as endless tears poured down her face all the while she was screaming hysterically.
"Hey bitch, what's up?" he asked roughly pinning her down once again to the cold forest floor.
"He's going to kill me, he's going to hurt me, he hates me," she said frantically in an endless chant.
"KAGOME!" he shouted suddenly hoping it would calm her down as he began to shake her violently.
"No, my name is…Izayoi," she replied in a hoarse whisper, her eyes wide open as tears freely fell from their depths.
"Mommy!" Bankotsu heard a voice call out frighteningly and looked up to see the little girl had awakened and was running towards her wild mother.
Bankotsu quickly got off of the frenzied woman and watched in awe as the little girl hugged her mother around her waist and a blue light shrouded them, making the miko stop and smile warmly before both of them passed out in exhaustion.
"General what should we do? The mercenary is inhumanly fast, he is possibly already out of our jurisdiction," a solider informed firmly.
"Solider, do you have a wife a child?" the general informed emotionlessly as he looked out at the deep forest from a cliff high above.
"Um, no general sir," the solider stammered, taken off guard by the personal question.
"Well, then you do not know how I feel. He has my child and her mother. Two very precious people in my life, two of the very few that I have. I will stop at nothing until I find this man and have his head. Keep looking," and with that said the general climbed aboard his horse and galloped away.
"She looks just like you," Bankotsu said, as he walked along side the miko and her sleeping daughter who was riding on his back. He decided to be a little easier on the distressed miko, deciding it would be better to get out of the forest faster.
"Is that a good thing?" Kagome replied with a slight smile. She couldn't believe that she was walking alongside the same mercenary who had worked for Naraku. She really didn't have any other choice. They didn't have anywhere to go except with him, who knew a way out of the forest.
"Well, if you're thinking that I'm trying to compliment you, you can forget it. I was just sayin'," he retorted quickly.
"But, I can see where she's the general's kid too," he continued, looking at the woman for a reaction but found none. He wanted so badly to ask about the hanyou, but didn't want to risk her having another hysteric attack, but continued to keep the question in mind.
"Why did you kidnap us? That couldn't have been your intentions initially," Kagome asked suddenly, almost taking the mercenary off guard.
"So I could get out of there. Otherwise, I would have been done," Bankotsu replied causally as he titled his head to the sky as if he were peaceful.
"Why were you there in the first place? Where is Banryuu?" she asked continuing with her sudden questions.
"I was there to steal a meal. It's not easy being a mercenary. It is being repaired by some swordsman, I forgot his name though," he replied still keeping his casual demeanor.
"So, If you don't mind me asking…how did you end up in that village with a child that's not the half-breed's?" he asked gingerly, again looking for a reaction.
"I do mind," Kagome replied firmly, never taking her eyes off of the path before her.
'I wonder what the hanyou did to make her so mad?' Bankotsu thought but continued to press on through the cavernous forest.
Okay, finally got finished with the boring chapter. This was just the chapter where Kagome basically got her name back, nothing at all exciting about this one. Except, the part when she is remembering the bad things Inuyasha did to her. This fanfic will also be posted on my site, so hopefully I will get reviews there too hint hint Well, see ya next chappie: )
