A Pain Worse Than Death

We've all wished for things right? I think so, I'm pretty sure that Sesshomaru has, and Rin and Shippou, and probably Jakken and Au-Un, I'm sure that Sango, Inuyasha, Kirara, and of course Miroku, Kikyou, and even Naraku have wished for something. And as far as I can tell, a lot of their wishes have come true, so what makes mine so different? Why won't mine come true? I just want the pain to stop, or at least let it kill me and get it over with. Why did this have to happen to me?

(Flash back)

We were walking in what looked to be a valley, and Rin and Shippou were playing tag, and Shippou was it, then a sort of whirl wind appeared in front of us, the kids got scared and ran to hide behind mine, and Sesshomaru's legs, and they peeked their heads out at the side.

Once the whirl wind was gone, a being was in its place, a girl, well actually a woman. She had white hair tied into a high ponytail that went down to mid-thigh with bangs that just barely cover the bottom of her eyebrows, she had electric blue eyes, some nails (but I wouldn't signify that they are claws) that have red stained on the tips of the nails, she wore a purple kimono with silver Sakura blossoms on it, she had a pair of indigo stripes on each cheek, all in all she was a very gorgeous woman, and a mad one at that. She was glaring at Sesshomaru, and he had no problem glaring right back at her.

"Who are you?" I spoke as she turned her heated glare on me, and it bothered me in the least.

"Kimiko, and I am the ruler here, and you are trespassing."

"Sorry, we are just trying to get through, without having to go around."

"Well sorry, I do not allow people who are not my friends or family through, you'll just either have to fight me or go around." I growled, something told me that either way I will lose, even if I beat her.

"Fine, I'll fight." I glared at her, she just looked joyous, and she smiled.

She had a sword and she had cut my dress in a lot of places but she never got me, I got her quite a few times, and I decided to use one of my powers I haven't used in battle yet. I used my electricity and shot her heart with it, and she fell down. I went up to her and saw she had a hole strait through her chest, and then I saw a white smoke looking thing rise from her body, I took a step back and the smoke shot to my body, it knocked the wind out of me causing me to stumble and fall on my butt… then the pain started.

(End of flashback)

I have been hit, cut, stabbed, shot, soul sucked, and almost died from poison, yet none of those were not nearly as painful than this, this seems worse than death its self. I could look at death and laugh strait in its face at the moment, because I'm am positive that death is less painful than this. This felt as if someone is taking a 3 inch thick 2 foot long blade and shoving all around my torso, and occasionally on my chest, the opposite side of my heart, and I was grateful for that, but that didn't last too long.

All the stabbing stopped, and I thought it was done… but boy was I wrong. This time was even worse than before, and instead of the blade, this was a big long stake, and instead of my torso, this was directly at my heart, and it hurt so bad I couldn't scream it was like my air ways were blocked. And somehow, miraculously, the stake found more of my heart to torture.

Eventually all the stabbing stopped and the pain started to die down. I kept myself braced for what might happen next, but nothing did, and I was filled with relief. I slowly opened my eyes and saw everyone standing over me with worried and curious expressions, I slowly sat up and all my bones were protesting, it felt as if every inch of my body had been bruised.

I made a mirror out of water and placed it in front of me, cause surly I had to be all bloody and what not… I looked at myself and what I saw I was not expecting.

The girl had white streaks in her jet black hair, the tips of her claws were blood red, she had chocolate brown eyes, with electric blue specks in them, and her body was… I mean, any model would kill and I mean literally kill just to have this body. The kimono that she was wearing was silver, with purple Sakura blossoms. And the only signification that this was me was the mark on my forehead, the snow flake with the moon bordering it; it was no longer a faint blue, but more of a bluish-purple, as were the stripes on my cheeks.

I let the mirror crash to the ground… someone had better explain what is going on, and when I mean someone, I mean my parents, Touga, or Midoriko. I tried to get up on my feet, but the pain was too bad I just started to fall, so I grabbed on to Sesshomaru's arm to help me, he pulled me gently to my feet. I tried to start walking but it didn't work, tears were falling down my face, so Sesshomaru picked me up and carried me, and I gave him a grateful smile.

"What? No complaints? No arguing?" he said, and I giggled.

"I'll let this one slide." And with that I let my head rest on his chest, and I fell asleep

(Kagome's dream)

Midoriko was right in front of me, I sat down cross-legged and she followed my movement, I crossed my arms and raised my eyebrows. She knows exactly why I'm here, so she can just tell me now, I mean it can't be that bad.

"Well, I assume you would like to know what happened to you." I nodded "Well, Kimiko was the protector of those lands, because no one owned them, so, she claimed them, and when she died you became protector, because you're the one that killed her. Now when someone trespasses, even if you're far away and traveling, you will automatically appear in front of the trespassers, to see if you want to let them through or not." My eyes grew wide.

"WHAT!"

"Jeez, no need to yell."

"But, but, but… why me?"

"I told you, because you're the one who killed her, and the lands can't go without an owner, so you are the new lord of the lands… well I guess it's actually lady." She giggled. I was starting to get very mad, and as if she sensed my anger she was quick to make an escape.

"Well, I … got to go, you know… do business, and what not." She quickly disappeared.

(End Kagome's dream)

I woke up, and found I was still being carried. And then I remembered what Midoriko said, I started to growl a low threatening growl, and I glared at the sky. Sesshomaru looked down curiously.

"What wrong, Kagome?"

"Put me down please." I said through clenched teeth, and I balled up my hands, he slowly set me on my feet it didn't hurt as much as before, but it still hurt. "Stay here." And with that I took off at a blinding speed, I found myself in a forest when I stopped, and that is just great.

The next couple of hours, I was using all the powers I could use that would harm anything, and the forest… well let just say that the forest was in bad shape. But I was relieved somewhat of the anger… enough not to end up harming anyone I care about, so I followed my sent back to my group, and I vaguely registered the fact that it was dark, so they will probably be going to sleep or sitting around the fire. And I was right they were sitting around the fire.

"It's late, Rin, Shippou you guys should be going to sleep." They gasped and looked at me, the next thing I knew I was on the ground, with two kids on top of me squeezing with all their strength… and let me tell you, they are pretty strong for kids. I chuckled and hugged them back.

"Mommy, are you okay?" Shippou asked

"Well… uh…. You guys should go to sleep, alright?" They nodded their heads and went to sleep by Ah-Un, and an already sleeping Jakken. I walked over to Sesshomaru, sat down, and I laid my head on his chest again, he moved his arm around my waist.

"Why did you leave?" He asked.

"I… does it matter?"

"Yes." I sighed.

"If I hadn't of left, then I'm sure that no one except me would be alive at the moment."

"What made you so mad?"

"Well, since Kimiko was the owner of the lands, and I'm the one that killed her, I am now the owner of the lands. And when ever some one passes through my lands, no matter where I am, I will end up teleporting back here, to see if I want to let them through or not."

"Oh"

"Yeah."

"Well, it's not so bad, I suppose."

"Yeah, uh huh." I rolled my eyes.

We stayed silent the rest of the night, and just stared at the fire.
