CHAPTER SIX
Kagome opened her eyes and noticed she was now in some sort of a stretcher.
Her head kept bumping the ground but just the same she didn't want to make much noise. Instead she listened intently to the conversation, the two demons that were carrying her were having.
"This is too much work we should have just pulled the jewel off the string." the grey one seemed to be saying.
"Do you want to get the Jewel shard to Tuashimaga or not? If you do stop
complaining. I told you once already when I tried to take it off my hand was almost burnt off. You even saw the flame. That would be why we have to carry her." The red one replied angrily.
"Sure. But why didn't we just kill her instead. We probably would have been able to get that stupid jewel off her." The grey one retorted. "No. Instead we have to carry this stupid thing all the way to Tuashimaga."
At that moment a sudden urge of instinct took over Kagome completely. "If
you don't want to carry me, why don't I save you the time of taking me there in the first place." Kagome said in a voice she didn't quite recognize as her own.
"Ah. Your awake. As you said your welcomed to save us the trouble of doing so." The red one said sarcastically.
"As you say." Kagome or not so much Kagome as the demon she had become. The claws in her right hand were no longer short and as normal as they could have been, but long and very dangerous. In a second the head of the red demon rolled away at her feet.
"Uh.........Wh-what did you do that for?" the grey one said wide eyed.
"You'll pay for that with your live."
"I doubt it. Maybe yours though. Ha ha ha." a demonic laugh had escaped from Kagome's mouth. This frightened her. She was beginning to have less and less control over herself or maybe it was just when she was in pretty deep trouble.
"We'll see. You're awefully cocky for such a small squirt." the demon replied a little less worried then before.
"I'm not a small squirt. I trust you'll take my advice when I say, run." Kagome was beginning to feel more comfortable with this new found courage.
The claws in both her hands were now growing longer in length.
"You'll die before the day is over. Then I'll just steal the Jewel from you." The demon said in a strong tone, but one that didn't conceal his worry.
The thought was growing in Kagome's mind. 'Don't want to die. I won't let him kill me. Not to...........before Kagome had finished clearing her head she got a sudden blow to the side of her head.
With in seconds Kagome's head was spinning. This demon didn't joke around he meant business. He had already broken her arm and there was blood dripping down into her right eye. She was almost positive she was going to die and couldn't help what had come over her.
Then the sudden urge of instinct took control and the demon began to back up stuttering.
"W-wh-what is that trickery? How do you make it glow?" The demon exclaimed looking at the string around Kagome's neck.
Kagome glanced down for a moment taking no more notice to the jewel then the pain in her arm. Kagome was feet away from the other demon when she raised her hand and screamed, "Die demon, die!" The claws in her left arm suddenly transformed into pure energy and shot into the grey demon in five different spots. Kagome looked down at her hand in amazement, then back up at the grey demon who seemed to be unscathed.
"Ha ha ha. What was that sup......." The demon suddenly burst apart like a doll being pulled apart at the seams. The parts then collapsed into a pile.
