I just wanted to say that I have finished reading New Moon by Stephenie Meyer. It is my new favorite book, which has replaced my old favorite book, Twilight, also by Stephenie Meyer. If you like vampires, you should give them a try!
Thank you so much for the reviews!
Sorry! This chapter was very hard to write, so it's not very good.
"Do you think Kagome and InuYasha are okay?" Sango said her voice was small and weak, like a baby's coo.
Miroku's eyes opened slowly, he was never really sleeping, and nodded. "I'm sure they are fine," He replied with confidence. Sango rolled over onto her back and gazed up into the endless night above.
They made camp in a secluded area in the middle of the forest. They had gathered up sticks and had started a small fire. Kirara (in her big kitty form) was wide awake, her red eyes alert and ready for danger. Shippo was nestled close to Kirara for warmth, snoring quietly. Miroku had taken out a sleeping bag from Kagome's backpack, which Miroku had offered to carry before InuYasha was shrouded with weird smoke and taken by the wench. He had given the sleeping bad to Sango, which she now laid in a safe distance away from the fire. Miroku was propped against a tree.
The stars reminded Sango of the sparkle that was formally in her brother's eyes before their foe, Naraku, had killed him. Pain eventually gnawed at the puncture in her hurt. Kohaku was alive, but only by a single shard in his back. So what will happen when the jewel is nearly whole? Sango knew the right answer. Kohaku should've been dead long ago. But she wasn't strong enough to kill him all over again.
Sango eventually pushed her thoughts away, and fell into a dream full of nightmares of the past and future.
Kagome sat in the corner of the room the wench had taken her into. Kagome was shaken, visibly, under the stare of the wench; which Kagome now knew her name, Aral. Kagome was cold; she had been in this room with her for two hours. Kagome shuddered at the various tests Aral had tried on her, and vowed to her own personal healing to never think of them again. The worst was over, or so Kagome thought. (The tests will come again later, don't forget them!)
Aral left the room for a moment, coming back with InuYasha.
"Stand." Aral ordered, the fake sweetness in her voice was now replaced with acid that stung her like a bee. Kagome followed the command. Aral gawked at Kagome disapprovingly before walking over and latching her long, cold fingers around Kagome wrist. She pulled Kagome back toward InuYasha, who eyed them both with annoyance.
Once Aral let go of Kagome's wrist, she took a step away from the two lovers. "Strike her."
Kagome's eyes widened with horror as she turned to face InuYasha. A new flame grew in his eyes as a smirk graced his lips. At that moment, Kagome knew it was all over. Without even time for a reaction, InuYasha leaned forward and struck Kagome hard in the stomach with his iron fist.
Kagome was taken back before falling to the floor, coughing up a small amount of blood. InuYasha jumped to the side of Kagome, and kicked her powerfully in the ribs with no objection from Aral. Kagome fell onto her back, blood draining out of her mouth. InuYasha gave Kagome three more good kicks, before Aral ordered him to stop.
Kagome opened her eyes slowly, blood scorching her throat as it came out of her mouth. She got to her knees, feeling awfully lightheaded and dizzy. She staggered to her feet, hurting everywhere. She eyes settled on a paper thin door.
Feeling a ton of energy flow into his body, InuYasha drew his fist back and sliced Kagome on the side of her head. Kagome fell from her feet and onto her side, withering and whimpering in pain. InuYasha soon followed her on the floor, a sudden strike of flaming pain in his fingers.
The pain rapidly built up his arms and into his shoulders and festered there for a period of time.
Kagome vision was hazy a splitting headache now made her groan and clutch her head. She felt something warm and thin; immediately recognizing it as blood. She groaned again. She looked over to InuYasha, whose head was pressed to the floor, eyes bulging from his head, a furious growl shaking him.
Anger built up in Kagome. It was her fault. She had done this to InuYasha and made InuYasha hurt her. "What are you doing to him?!" Kagome screamed, pain rushing to her mind and telling her to stop, "Just leave him alone! Stop!"
Aral laughed. InuYasha lifted his body just when the pain surfaced in his stomach and did something that Aral did not expect him to do. He vomited.
InuYasha's eyes flickered gold, but this time stayed there. They where milky and blurry and he couldn't see straight. The only thing he registered at first was what he saw crawling upward from the vile he just dispelled from his stomach. Worms.
