Title: Silence Is Golden
Chapter Fourteen: Was There A Hidden Love?
--
Kagome opened her eyes to see nothing but darkness. Her head was throbbing from when she was hit there. Kouga's voice was the first thing she head when she woke,
"Kagome are you okay?"
"I'm fine Kouga." thought Kagome.
He asked, "Where are you?"
"His castle, on the northern cliff's. Can't miss it. If not, it's probably because of the barrier." thought Kagome.
He asked, "Hayate?"
"S. she took him from me."
With that thought, she knew something was wrong. Kagome got up and ran to the door. Which she could see with her wolf eyes. She opened the door to come face-to-face with Naraku. Kagome spat,
"Get out of my way…give me my son you bastard!"
"Don't be in such a hurry." smirked Naraku, stepping up to her, closing the door behind him.
Kagome glared, "What are you doing?"
"What I've wanted to do for a long time now." smirked Naraku, grabbing her chin.
Kagome felt all her strength leave her, like she was being controlled. This happened as she looked into her eyes. Her consciousness was slipping, she was being taken over by darkness. Only a bit of her there, enough to talk to Kouga. Naraku captured Kagome's lips and smirked when she kissed back.
Kagome screamed in her head,
"Kouga if you don't get here fast…something really horrible is going to happen."
"What is that bastard doing to you?" he growled.
Kagome wanted to cry, "He's kissing me. I can't stop myself from kissing back…it's like he's taken over my body."
"We're on our way Kagome."
With Kouga and Naraku
"We need to pick up the pace!" yelled Kouga, his speed going ten times faster than Inuyasha.
Inuyasha asked, "What's going on?"
"All you need to know for now is that we need to get there fast." yelled Kouga, seeing a clearing, knowing it was the castle under a barrier.
A arrow zoomed past them and hit the barrier. Inuyasha skid to a stop and whipped his head around to see Kikyo. His eyes widened,
"This can't be happening to me."
"Inuyasha! We don't have time to find out why she's even here!" yelled Kouga, kicking the door of the castle open, and kicking the guards asses.
Kikyo smiled and he shook his head, and followed Kouga. She took her time entering the castle.
Meanwhile, Kagome was still forced into kissing Kouga. She was trying to hard to pull away but the more she tried, the more she was all over him. Her hand rested on his neck. Kagome felt her heart pounding hard, as though something was happening to it. At that moment a vision came in her head:
"Inuyasha!" called Kagome. "Where'd you go!"
Ten-year old Kagome walked around in the forest. It was almost night fall. Something shuffled behind and she spun around so fast she fell on her butt. Over her stood a boy with long raven hair, blood crimson eyes.
He had a gash on his left cheek as he looked down at her coldly. Kagome swallowed loudly,
"Who are you? Why are you in my father's woods?"
"I don't care." he replied.
Kagome pulled herself up, dusting off the dirt, "Well…I do. So leave."
He looked at her with a face she didn't get. Kagome raised a eyebrow,
"You really creeping me out, stop looking at me."
"Kagome!" called Inuyasha.
He smiled, "I'm Naraku."
"Uh…Kagome." replied Kagome. "What happened to your face? Why are you alone?"
He replied, "I've always been alone."
"Oh well…maybe we can be friends." smiled Kagome, sticking out her hand.
He grabbed it, and let it linger there. Inuyasha finally showed up,
"Who are you? Kagome, what are you doing?"
"He's here by himself Inuyasha." answered Kagome, taking her hand back. "We should take him to my dad."
Inuyasha glared, "I'm not taking him anywhere."
"Stop being so mean Inuyasha." pouted Kagome.
Naraku frowned, "I won't be needing your help, half-breed."
"Hey! Don't call him that!" yelled Kagome, hugging Inuyasha's arms. "You'll hurt his feelings."
Naraku glared into Inuyasha's eyes, "You won't interfere."
"What are you doing about you idiot?" asked Inuyasha, beginning to growl.
Naraku looked at Kagome then at Inuyasha, his eyes flashed. Kagome took Inuyasha's hand,
"Let's go…I don't like him."
He glared at Naraku, clenched onto Kagome's hand, then led her out the forest. As he pulled her along Kagome looked back and into his empty crimson eyes. He looked back into hers. She turned back around and looked at Inuyasha, she then squeezed her eyes closed.
At the end of that flashback, she really wanted to get away from him. Was he crazy or what? What was he doing to her. She didn't like this feeling she was having. Where had this hidden feeling coming from.
She hadn't realized he'd pulled away. When she looked into her eyes, she saw that same boy from the flashback. He smirked, and turned toward the door. There stood a wide-eyed Inuyasha. While she had that vision she hadn't realized they'd been talking and she had kissed him.
Inuyasha asked,
"What did you do to her?"
"He did nothing to me." answered Kagome, not on her own will.
Naraku smirked, "On our first encounter…lets just say I felt a connection with her."
"Kagome, knock out of it." yelled Inuyasha.
Kagome yearned to be in Inuyasha's arms, why was this happening to her? Before her zombie self could say anything, a loud scream was heard. Kagome felt the control end, and she pushed Naraku away from herself. He hit the wall behind him but quickly claimed his composure. Kagome glared,
"Stay away from me! I don't know what you did to me, but I'll never be in love with you."
"Heh," laughed Naraku, "do you not see I didn't make you kiss me."
Kagome yelled, "Yes you did."
"What was that scream?" asked Kouga, looking back then pausing.
Kagome stammered, "K. kikyo?"
Kikyo walked up to Inuyasha, Hayate in one arm. Kagome sprinted over to Kikyo, and took Hayate from her. Kikyo looked at Naraku,
"Shall I do the pleasure in killing them?"
"I didn't expect this." smirked Naraku, as she walked over beside.
Kagome yelled, "Kikyo…you can't do this!"
"Of course I can." smirked Kikyo, looking at Inuyasha, setting up her bow and arrow.
Inuyasha stepped in front of Kagome and Hayate. Kouga got in a ready position. She aims it at Inuyasha, smiles, then she skids to the far right, and shots it at Naraku. There was a bright light and Naraku was staggering back. Clenching onto the arrow in his heart.
Naraku looked at Kagome, falling to his knees, then turned toward Kikyo. Her hand was glowing blue, when she balled it into a fist, he took a sharp breath and fell forward. He disappeared. Kagome looked at Kikyo in shock. She whispered,
"Just doing my job…and for you Inuyasha, I'll pretend what you said…never happened."
She put her stuff away and walked out the room. Kagome looked down Hayate. His face had dried tears on it. Kagome spoke with a shaky voice,
"We need to go, now."
Later: Nightfall
The war ended, everything was quiet now. Kagome was checking Hayate after she fed him, and after she bathed him. She examined him carefully. Kagome gasped when she found a symbol on his back. It was a Celtic cross. Was Ella celtic or something and why did she put this on Hayate.
Kagome put her hand on it and sensed nothing. She was claiming him. That was until she died. Kagome let out a sigh of relief. The door opened as she put the sleeping Hayate's shirt on. Inuyasha's voice came,
"You okay?"
"Yeah, but you might want to look at this." replied Kagome, lifting Hayate's shirt and showing the symbol.
He asked, "Will it wash off?"
"No, it's permanent." sighed Kagome, pulling his shirt back down and holding him in her arms.
Inuyasha sat beside Kagome, wrapping his arm around her and Hayate. He whispered,
"I'm sorry I didn't listen to you Kagome."
"It's okay." smiled Kagome. "Everyone knows you're stubborn."
He frowned, almost looking like he was pouting. Kagome giggled and kissed his jaw. Inuyasha looked down at her and lowered his head to hers. Capturing her lips into a passionate kiss. When they pulled away, Inuyasha whispered,
"It's over."
"I know." smiled Kagome. "I love you."
He smirked. "I love you both."
And with that said, they knew their life would be easier. No more worries. The door to their room swung open and Rin peeked inside,
"Hey guys, InuTaisho wants to make a speech."
"Aw man." grumbled Inuyasha.
Kagome laughed and stood, "Come on."
She walked to the door, stopped and looked back at him. Kagome smiled at his soft eyes, shook her head, and walked out. Inuyasha stood and smirked remembering when he'd kidnapped her and she wouldn't speak. If she had, before he made her, they ay not have been where they are today,
"Silence is golden."
