Ch2
Kagome had passed out from the loss of blood, and was brought to Keade's village for medical attention. Her cloths were ruined by rips and blood-stains, so Sango (Miroku just couldn't be trusted) had changed her cloths. It had been two days, and Kagome had yet to wake. Keade thought it was because she afraid to wake up. During this time, Sango and Miroku left to investigate any jewel shard rumors, in hopes of finding Inuyasha. While Kirara, Keade, and Shippou, who never left Kagome's side, stayed to look after their fallen comrade.
~*~*~*~
Meanwhile, Yoko (for those of you who have to figure it out, he was the one with the gold eyes in the trees, from the other chapter ^.^) had been observing them, and the henyou, in secrecy. He studied when they left, and when they were closest to the girl. From doing this, he formulated a plan.
He had gone to a village and struck a deal with one of the more 'needy' men. The guy was suppose to lead to his village, which was 'attacked', long enough for Yoko to get what he wanted. Yoko had promised the man riches, but in reality, the only thing awaited the man was a quick death. after all, if the man did the job, he didn't need to be tortured.
Sure enough, the man came, and led them away. The only ones left to deal with were the hag, the cat, and the kit. Yoko smiled, 'Yes, this is indeed easy.' he set up a plant of his by the village, and watched as the old woman, and neko-youkia left to handle it. 'The kit should have gone with them, oh well. I guess he'll just have to die, if he interferes.' (Don't worry, and put down the boom-sticks, Shippou will live to see the end of this. maybe)
He jumped from his perch, and walked into the hut. 'She's still out, pathetic human.' He calmly walked to Kagome, bent down, went to grab the jewel, but was stopped by the barrier that almost purified his hand off. His hand jerked back, and he looked at the girl, 'She doesn't look strong enough to erect such a force-field, but, with any luck, she can't use it around large areas.' He poked at her arm. Nothing happened. No stinging pain, or pink light, just nothing. Yoko smirked, 'Just as I thought. If that's the way she wants it.' He shrugged, picked up Kagome, and ran off.
~*~*~*~
Shippou had been by Kagome when Keade and Kirara left to take care of the demon plant. Kagome twitched slightly, and started to mumble something. Shippou moved closer to hear it. It was faint, but he was sure she had told him to hide. This confused him until, that is, he felt the strong demon aura heading for them. He reluctantly followed his surrogate mother's orders.
He had seen the man, that looked like Inuyasha with a tail, come in. He watched silently as the man burned his hand, stared at Kagome, poked her arm, grabbed her, and ran off. Shippou left the hut to follow him, but he stopped long enough to write a short note in the dirt for the others, and then continued in his pursuit of the man that took Kagome away.
~*~*~*~
Yoko set Kagome down, and thought about the best way to get the jewel, 'I could try to kill her. But, if she is the keeper of the jewel, she might be of some use when finding the rest of it. Maybe I can break her barrier. Yes that should work.' So he set out to do so. Every thing he tried failed. The barrier was too strong. (in case you're planning to hunt me down, I'll explain: Kagome is passed out, therefore her miko powers are on 'instinct mode' and her instincts are on 'protect the jewel'. So, all of her "hidden power" is focused on protecting the jewel with a barrier.)
After a few hours of this, he decided it was time to try something different. 'I could wake her up. If she was able to harness that power while being conscious, she would have done it to save herself from the clay doll. Now, how am I going to do this?' Yoko kicked Kagome, none too gently, in the stomach. She stayed asleep. He then tried talking to her, "Girl, wake up. Are you listening to me? Wake up!"
Then, the small fox that was with her came running to her. "KAGOME!!!" He yelled as he got in front of her, and started to growl at Yoko. Unfortunately, his growls didn't sound threatening, due to his high voice, and only served to slightly amuse Yoko.
'So, the kit wants to help her. Pathetic. I guess he'll have to be taught a lesson.' As he went to attack Shippou, Kagome's barrier grow around her, and Shippou. Yoko ran right into it, and was thrown into a tree. He growled, 'damn kit.' "Drop your barrier, Girl." When nothing happened, he tried to break it. Still nothing happened. "Kit, come out and fight. Stop hiding behind a human! Or are you so weak that you have to rely on a mortal?"
Even Shippou has pride. And that shattered it. "I DO NOT HIDE BEHIND PEOPLE!!!"
Yoko smirked 'That's right, take the bate and get out here. The girl obviously has some ties to the kit, and I plan to use that as an advantage.' "Then what are you doing now?"
Shippou growled, and tried to run out of the barrier, but it held him in. "Kagome, what are you doing?" He got no response from the sleeping girl.
Yoko was not happy with this, 'the girl knows I'm going to kill him. But how? If I can't hold him hostage, then I might as well find a different way to use him. If he's as foolish as I think he is, this should work perfectly.' "You don't like that dog, do you kit?"
"Dog? You mean Inuyasha?"
"If he is the one that attacked the girl, then yes. Inuyasha. You don't like him, do you?"
"No, he hurt Kagome."
"You like to see him pay for hurting her, wouldn't you?"
"Why?" Shippou thought about it, and this seemed like this is something Naraku would do. And it wasn't worth helping Naraku just to see Inuyasha get hurt.
"I might be able to help you. But first, you need to wake up the girl."
"But, I can't leave here."
"Then get her to drop the barrier."
"You'll hurt her."
"I won't hurt you, or her."
"Ok." Shippou shook Kagome, "Kagome, can you drop your barrier? He said he wouldn't hurt us." (if this is ooc, I'm sorry.)
Kagome spoke, yet stayed asleep, "He's lying."
Shippou looked at Kagome, then Yoko, and back at Kagome. "How do we know you aren't just saying that?"
"I give you my word as a fox." 'That should convince them.' Yoko thought as the barrier dropped. He walked over and bent down to get the jewel, but there was still a barrier around it. 'I guess I still have to wake her up.' Yoko sighed 'If this weren't the Shikon (thanx for telling me how it's spelt. you know who you are.) no Tama, I would have just killed them already, but the second I find out that she isn't useful, she's dead.' "Kit, do you know how to wake her up?"
"Keade said that she was afraid to open her eyes, but it normally helps to use water."
Yoko raised an eyebrow, "Water?"
Shippou nodded, "I'll show you." with that, he disappeared into the woods, (never to be seen again!!! jk) in after a few minutes, he returned with a small bucket, he had gotten from Kagome's bag, filled with water. He quietly walked up to Kagome, "Kagome, I'm sorry but, if you don't wake up, I just might have to pour this on your head." After a minute of silence, Shippou smiled mischievously and dumped the water on her head, as promised.
Kagome shot up, "Shippou! That was cold!!!!" Then she looked up at Yoko, "Inuyasha? No, you look kind of like him, but different."
Shippou hugged the newly awaken Kagome, "Mama! You're awake!!!"
Yoko was kind of confused by this, 'She just dismissed my presence as if I were a friend. And why did the kit call her his mother? He doesn't smell like a half-breed, but I'm sure she's human. This should prove interesting. Besides, if she can use the power she displayed earlier, she should make a most useful tool.' (yes, he called her a tool.)
AN- allot of people have been asking if this is a Yoko/Kagome fic. well, if he doesn't kill her first, it just might be. Or maybe, by some weird series of events, it will be Naraku/Kagome or Yoko/Shippou. Probebly not Yoko/Shippou, I don't approve of sodomy. But it will NOT end w/ Inuyasha/Kagome, or Inuyasha/SesshouMaru I don't like the thought of inbreeding that much either, but each to their own I guess.
Kagome had passed out from the loss of blood, and was brought to Keade's village for medical attention.
