"I am back here, this is where I truly belong. I must figure out who it is that has killed my parents." Kalim said as he jumped out of the well. He immediately went off so that no one else would be around him, this was something he needed to do alone. His scent got masked, so Inuyasha wasn't able to figure out where he was.
"Why hello there, we meet again." said a familiar voice, Kalim turned around.
"It's you again, this time I will rip your throat out." he said lowly, full of anger, "Naraku." Naraku chuckled.
"I couldn't help but hear you looking for your parent's killer...I thought they had all been wiped out..." he made it look as if he were in thought, Kalim looked at him curiously.
"What do you know?" he got into a stance.
"Well, I could tell you now, but where would be the fun in that?" At that moment Kalim ran at him about to attack but was pushed back by a barrier, "I will kill you!" he ran at the half-demon in front of him and tried to push through again, but to no avail.
"It was you, wasn't it?" he tried attacking again only to have the same effect, Naraku chuckled, "It seems you figured it out, well that seemed to ruin the fun." he then sent out a barb that extended from him into the shoulder of Kalim, and from the pain he fell to the ground, unconscious.
"I will be taking this." Naraku said as he ripped off the jewel shard Kalim was wearing.
"Inuyasha, can you find where he is?" Kagome asked worriedly.
Inuyasha sniffed around, "No, it is like his scent completely disappeared, what about his jewel shard?" Kagome tried but had no success at tracing the shard.
"Dammit! Where is he? He better not be getting himself killed, that's my job, killing him." Kagome smiled lightly, she knew he was worried about him.
At that moment Kalim's scent came to Inuyasha's nose almost immediately, accompanied by the smell of his blood.
"Kalim!" Inuyasha screamed when he caught that scent, and he ran as fast as he could in the direction of the smell. When Inuyasha arrived he looked down to see Kalim bloody and beaten, "Kalim...what happened to you?" he said as he picked him up.
"Inuyasha..." Kagome started, she gasped when she saw Kalim, "What happened?" she half-screamed running towards Kalim in his arms, limp.
"I don't know, but it looks as if he's seen better days." Inuyasha stated looking at how badly injured Kalim was, "We need to get him taken care of, fast." he brought Kalim to Kaede's.
Kalim had regained half-consciousness over time and was able to slightly make out that he was not in the same place as when he had lost it.
"Where am I?" he asked himself and tried to move, but did not have the ability or strength to, "Why can't I move?" He pushed as hard as he could to even move a finger, but it felt as if his whole body weighed a ton, "Dammit!" he also realized that he was unable to talk as he moved his lips to form words with only breath leaving. Kagome walked in to make her check on him and saw his eyes were slighly open, "Kalim, are you awake?" he made no motion since he didn't have the ability to do so. Kalim moved his lips to try and talk, but no matter how hard he tried, it was an impossible task for him to complete.
"Kalim...you are so beaten, who did this to you?" She sat down beside him, "Who took your shard?" His eyes widened, that is why he was unable to move. Most of his energy came from the shard, so losing that was losing more than three-quarters of his energy and speed. He knew that the effects took a while, he had to be out for a whole forty-eight hours for that to happen. He knew that now he had to be stronger than ever, he had to try and move on his own strength.
"Kalim...are you too weak to move?" she asked knowing the answer, and knowing he couldn't answer himself.
"Come on demon side, you come out at all the wrong times, how about lending me some strength at a good time?" Kalim thought inside his head.
At that moment it seemed like his strength increased slightly, he used a lot of it, but managed to get up with it.
"Oh, sorry Kagome. I just don't have all the energy I used to have." Kalim said as he faced her finding he could talk again, "It was just drained from the battle." he lied, he didn't want her to know he would be like that as long as the shard was not with him.
"Battle against who?" she asked him concerned.
"How about we get the group together so I don't have to answer that question five times?" he asked her kindly. He had no memories of the words that had gone between him and the other person or who the other one was. but he tried as hard as he could to remember.
"Okay, so what happened Kalim?" Kagome asked as everyone sat in a semi-circle around him. He explained everything that had happened and how when he woke up his shard had been stolen, and he showed he had nothing around his neck.
"What happened to you saying you would keep it safe?" Inuyasha asked in his usual tone.
"Sorry, I was just overwhelmed, and distracted by the events that had just taken place recently." Kalim bowed apologizing.
"Don't worry about it, we will get it back." Kagome said, "Who was it that attacked you?" Kalim scratched his head for an answer, but his mind had been shot, someone didn't want him remembering anything that happened there. Shortly after, he decided it would be good to get some air outside as he stood and, after much debate, he walked out and sat on a tree branch. He sat feeling the wind blow through his hair, more and more of his memories were starting to become a blur.
"Aahhh, what's happening to me?" he held his head slightly screaming, he couldn't even remember what his 'mom' looked like. Something was messing with Kalim's memory and he had no idea what it was causing such an event to happen. He looked down and saw Inuyasha walking by, "Hey Inuyasha!" he said jumping down.
"What is it?" he replied.
"I would like to have a little practice fight with you, there is something I need to see."
"Okay, fine by me, I have been waiting to fight again." Inuyasha stated gladly.
They both stood opposite each other, "Now Inuyasha remember, this is practice." Inuyasha nodded to his words.
"Now!" They both went at each other and Inuyasha was seeing Kalim moving clearly, moving at the same speed as himself.
"What's the matter? Holding back against me?" Inuyasha asked as he landed a punch into Kalim's face. Kalim went flying back against a tree.
"No, that is what I needed to find out, I can't seem to move faster than that anymore." Kalim explained, "Everything seemed to depend on that shard. Guess I need to start working on my fighting skills, I depended on my speed too much, more than I did my technique."
"I see, you lost a lot, didn't you?" he asked Kalim.
"Inuyasha, I have a favor to ask you..."
