Seven Sins
Kagome stared at Shippo, not really knowing what else to say.
This, defiantly, was not part of her plan. And she hadn't exactly figured in what to do when something didn't go according to plan.
It was all suppose to be very simple: She went – she fought – she won – she saved the world – she went home.
Nowhere was 'find the 6 other holders of the medallions' on her list.
All the teens were up now, sitting silently, starring at Kagome.
Myoga, the boy with dark brown hair, and was probably about 5 inches taller then Shippo had had the Gluttony Medallion.
The small, pale, beautiful girl with black hair that went down to her shoulders was Rin, who had had the Lust Medallion.
The green eyed, red ponytail hair girl was Ayame, who had had the Envy Medallion.
The boy with the skin infection, making him an oddly green color, was Jaken who had had the Sloth Medallion.
Shippo had had the Greed Medallion.
And Kikyo had had the Wrath medallion.
They all formed a semi-circle around Kagome, sitting with their legs crossed, waiting.
"…So, what's your plan?" Ayame asked bluntly, breaking the silence.
"…My plan?" Kagome said, forgetting the plan she had.
"You do have a plan don't you?" Jaken asked, looking Kagome over, obviously thinking that she wasn't too smart.
"Of course I have a plan!" Kagome cried, knowing that she didn't. Not one that they would like anyway.
"Well?" Rin asked nicely, smiling nicely at Kagome.
"Well, to make it short, now that I'm here, I plan on avoiding Koga, Kanna, Kagura, and Yura, and take out Naraku as quickly as I can. Then I'll get the medallions back, give them to you guys, and we're home free." Kagome said, liking her plan that she made up three seconds ago.
"How are you going to defeat him?" Myoga asked, bringing Kagome back to reality.
"Surprise Attack." Kagome said easily, though she really had no real idea.
"And that's it?" Kikyo asked, not hiding the fact that she obviously didn't like Kagome's plan.
"…Well, that's just a short version…and um…you know, it obviously isn't going to be…well um…yeah." Kagome said, knowing even as the words passed through her lips, that they didn't make sense.
"And how are you still alive?" Jaken asked, looking at Kagome like she was a little girl about to face a hungry tiger.
"What's that mean!" Kagome cried, glaring at Jaken.
"It means, unless you fight better then you talk, you're a sitting duck."
"Oh yeah? Coming from you, sitting here, captured like a mouse!"
"Hey!" Ayame yelled, glaring at Kagome. "What's that mean?"
"It means that with out me you're all dead!" Kagome yelled, turning to face Ayame.
"Our fate is in your hand? Oh lord, just kill me now!" Kikyo yelled, having gotten into the argument.
"Be quiet!" Rin hissed, not liking the noise that they were making.
But everyone ignored her, yelling and shouting at each other, mad.
"Hey!" Shippo yelled finally, having been sitting on the sidelines with Rin. "That's enough!"
Everyone eventually stopped yelling, tension filling the room, as tempers boiled down.
Kagome sighed, gaining her composure, as much as she could anyway, and shook her hair out of her face.
"If you'll all excuse me, I'm going to go save your ass."
And with that she stomped out of the room, ignoring Shippo and Rin's pleas for her to stay.
As soon as she made it out of the hallway, she stopped, taking a deep breath, before shutting the door, walking determinedly to find Naraku, wanting now more then every to defeat Naraku, just to prove them wrong.
Back in the room Rin and Shippo glared at everyone, as they all stood around different places in the room, no one talking, just calming down.
"Now what?" Rin asked quietly, looking as a wave of regret passed through everyone's faces, knowing that they just pissed off their only hope into doing something stupid.
"Now? We wait…" Ayame said, sitting down, leaning her back against the cool brick walls of the room.
Everything back at the house was horrible.
No one said a word, just sat around, or paced, back and forth, over and over, waiting for something.
Inuyasha had locked himself in his room.
Sango was in Kagome's room.
Miroku was in the library.
Sota was asleep, out in the garden.
The women were in the kitchen cleaning, keeping busy.
Inutashio and Sesshomaru were in the living room.
Mushen and Mauden were pacing back and forth around the dining room.
After the initial shock of what Kagome did, everyone just silently went their separate ways, dealing with this in their own ways.
Sota really was the only one who didn't quite realize the deepness of what Kagome was doing, making him the only one to really be able to forgive her.
After all, she was his sister, and he loved her. And she wouldn't do something if she didn't think she could handle it.
Kagome stalked down the halls, forgetting the part of her plan where she was suppose to be quiet.
She sighed as she came to a wall, making her turn either left or right.
Sighing, she blindly spun around, closing her eyes, pointing her arm out, deciding that wherever she pointed to was the way she was going.
Not exactly the best way to make a decision, but it would have to do.
Sighing, she put her foot down, stopping her spinning, and she opened her eyes, gasping as she came face to face to the one person she wasn't ready to face yet.
"Surprised?" came the evil, spine chilling voice of none other then Naraku.
And before Kagome could respond, Naraku waved his hand, and with that simple movement, it sent Kagome flying backwards, into the wall.
There was a sickening crash as Kagome collided with the wall, before she slid down the fall to the floor, limply.
Kagome, barely able to keep her eyes open, watched as Naraku walked slowly over to her, grinning madly.
"You made this to easy…" he whispered into her ear as her eyes closed.
She faintly felt him pick her up, carrying her in his arms, to who knows where.
'Crap!' she thought, knowing that wherever he was taking her, wasn't good.
Then she fell unconsciousness, hearing Naraku laugh madly.
