Hehe...I take it some didn't expect me to bring Kikyo back because it had been so long...perfect timing then...^^
Without delay, here's the story.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just before Kagome's under-kimono was removed, Inuyasha sniffed the air deeply, then let out a growl.
"Nani? What's wrong Inuyasha?" Kagome asked curiously. She was also somewhat worried she had done something wrong.
Inuyasha pulled Kagome closer to him, and whispered. "She's here..."
"Who's here?"
"Kikyo..."
"Ddemo, I thought..."
"Kagome, stay here...." was all he said before he got up to greet his unwelcomed visitor.
~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha walked to the entrance of the cave where he knew he'd be greeted by his visitor.
Inuyasha sniffed the air. 'Something's different about Kikyo's scent....' he thought as he walked closer to the shadowed figure.
"Kikyo, what are you doing here?" he asked, trying to sound as polite as possible. Considering the real Kikyo had been so helpful to Kagome, if this was the 'real' Kikyo, then he owed her.
"Inuyasha," she began, "I came to send your soul to hell, where it belongs..." she said as calmly as if she were saying good morning to a friend.
"Nnani?!" he asked.
"Inuyasha, please don't make me repeat myself." she said. She opened her eyes which were icy cold and bare of any emotions.
"What's going on out here?" Kagome asked as she quickly came out with Inuyasha's haouri wrapped around her.
"Kagome, get back!" he yelled as he blocked the view of Kagome.
"Kikyo, why are you...."
"It is not you I seek, but your lover.. do as you are told and you will not get hurt." the emotionless Kikyo said.
"Yyou're not Kikyo...." Kagome whispered, as if it was a secret.
"I 'am' Kikyo, just..." the Kikyo cocked her head to the side, "...different."
Inuyasha sniffed the air. 'She smells like rotted flesh and bones..' "That's because you're no longer amoung the living." Inuyasha announced.
"Hai. You are right. And within a moment, neither shall you!" the dead miko exclaimed as she lunged at Inuyasha with with a dager that somehow appeared out of her sleeve.
"Yeah, right!" Inuyasha said as he dodged the move, but just barely.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried. He had a small cut on his left shoulder where the dagger had scraped accross his arm.
"Kagome, I said get inside!" he yelled as he dodged another move of Kikyo's.
"No!"
"Now!" he commanded her.
"I can't let you fight alone Inuyasha!"
"Kagome, listen-go inside, NOW!" HE growled as Kikyo dug into his back with the dagger.
Kagome let more tears fall but she finally gave up and did as she was told. However, when she saw him wince from pain that the miko caused, she picked up one of the sticks that had been used for kindling and bore it into the stand the candles were on, forming an arrow out of some of the softer wood.
Kagome also fashioned a bow out of another bent kindling stick and then added a piece of a ribbon that she had in her hair.
"Kikyo!" she screamed when she once again arrived at the entrance to the once hidden cave.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled as he attempted to block another of Kikyo's attacks.
"Baka! You're causing my anger to grow. I came here only to purify this hanyou as I've done his brother, but I grow weary of playing around. I'll rid of him than kill you!"
"I do not believe so." Kagome said. Her voice was somehow different, and Inuyasha noticed even her scent had changed some.
"Kagome?!" he asked.
"You're not the miko you used to be, Kikyo-rather now you're a walking corpse set on destroying Inuyasha. You were one of Naraku's last creations before I purified him. Now, as I rid of him, I will rid of you!" she yelled as she pulled back on the ribbon and let the arrow fly.
"Kagome.....?"
'Inuyasha, trust me..' he heard in his mind, and he felt in his heart.
Kagome closed her eyes as every second, the blunt arrow grew closer and closer to Kikyo who could only watch out of shock.
"Ame no shiawase, hi no kanashimi, onegai miko's iki sentou."
Kagome's blunt arrow began to glow a bright green color, as had happened so many years before. The arrow changed into one of purification, or a miko's arrow.
"Nnani?!" Kikyo's eyes grew large. She was still as if she were frozen in time. She could do nothing but watch as her final demise was descided.
"Ame no shiawase, hi no kanashimi, onegai miko's iki sentou." Kagome repeatedly chanted until the arrow had became a deadly sharp and was now glowing a deep green color.
Kagome opened her eyes, which now had a green tint to them, and seperated her hands just a moment before the arrow struck Kikyo.
"Sayonara, Kikyo-sama.."
...then the arrow struck....
"Iie!" The corpse screamed as it's outer appearence rotted away quickly, leaving nothing but the bones of the long ago departed miko.
"Wwhere's her...."
"Her soul had departed long ago, when Naraku first took control of her body...what you saw today was nothing but a last-second creation of Naraku ..."
With those last words, Kagome collapsed to the cold stone floor.
"Kaogme!" Inuyasha called as he quickly ran to her and took her into his arms. "Kagome!?"
"I....Inuyasha..."she managed to say as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Kkagome...."
"Inuyasha, Temae watashi ai." Kagome muttered before she fell once again into the world of the sleeping.
Inuyasha momentarily looked stunned, as if he had never heard her say that before, then held her close to his chest. "Kagome....." he whispered as tears ran down his chest, "...temae amarini watashi ai..."
~*The End*~
Ok, ok...if I get alot of people saying they don't like this ending, I'll re-write it....
No, Kagome's not dead, just out of it.....
Yes, Kikyo was gone long ago-just the shell of her body was reformed.
The words Kagome kept repeating ment (in this order), "Happiness of night, sorrow of day, lead this miko on her way.." or so I think...
and the last words that the two lovers said to each other were supposed to mean ' I love you,' and of course, 'I love you too.'
Anyways, I said there was going to be no lemon, and I wasn't lying...lol....and I also said I wouldn't let their wedding day get messed up, but I wasn't sure about their wedding night...^-^
If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me at my old email-JMoonMars@aol.com...I still haven't switched yet.
Also, I'll probably be sending out one final update notice to everyone that's on the list-that's it.
I am not sure if I want to do a sequal at this point because I'll be concentrating on getting this story turned into a doushinji...however, *long sigh* If I do create one, just give me a few weeks to get some stuff finished, and I'll post an a/n on this story when it's up.
Ja ne and arigatou minna-san!
