Blood Drops of War
Chapter 1: Miko no Ti
By Arissia
I do not own Inu-Yasha or any of the anime/manga characters that I may use. However the characters I created are my own, so do not use them without my permission. Oh yeah…big thanks to Miko and Hammy two of my top supporters on Fanfic writing. And a major big thanks to Sere-chan…The person who helped me start on my path of writing fan fiction. Ja.
***Last Time***
"Leave her be Ryu!" The girl from before stood near a man in samurai costume only all black. Not a pinch of skin could be seen. "Why should I? Hmm…? My lord Naraku ordered this girl and her friends to be killed." He replied. "There is nothing you or your friend Hotaru, can do to stop it Miko no Ti." He laughed as the girl charged forward with her dagger in hand. "NO!!!" One of them screamed 2 seconds later. Blood covered the area where Ryu had once stood…
Kagome felt a sudden shock and screamed out as pain consumed her mind. Inu-Yasha and the group watched her with pained eyes. "Kagome!" Inu-Yasha cried out to her. "Hang in there Kagome." The small fox demon told her as he clutched onto Miroku's kimono tightly, tears clouding his vision. "Kagome…" Kadea stated softly as she watched the girl almost faint from the terrible throbbing in her head. Inu-Yasha held onto Kagome sternly. He watched his loved one cry out in pain and it felt as though a knife was stabbing him numerous times in the chest. 'Kagome…please don't die on me…' his mind told her.
***In Kagome's mind world***
"Forgive me Kami for what I have to do…" The young Miko had tears traveling down her face. Next to her feet a black like man lay in his own blood. "Forgive me Kami. But as the Miko no Ti I have to do it. Please Kami forgive me and let this girl live." The young girl's hair shimmered slightly as she brought the golden like dagger down for the final blow. Screaming in sadness as she killed a man.
***Real world***
Kagome let out a sigh of relief and rested against Inu-Yasha's shoulders. She had a soft and content look on her face. "Kagome?" Inu-Yasha asked her looking down upon the smaller girl with worried eyes. "It's over…whatever he was is dead…" She smiled up at her secret love then looked at the rest of the group. "He's gone…" She whispered serenely. "Thanks Miko…"She smiled and fainted. "Kagome!" Inu-Yasha cried out and shook her. "It's alright Inu-Yasha. Kagome's just fainted. Come let us return to the village," Kadea stated to the demon. The old woman got up as she smiled at Kagome. Then the old lady frowned. 'Miko? Who could that be?' She asked herself.
**In a camp far to the east***
"Is it over Miko?" A soft voice asked the dark haired girl. Miko's brown eyes flickered sadly. "Yes. She lifted the dagger and placed it inside a case. "I didn't have a choice Hotaru." She looked to her friend. The other nodded. "I understand. We don't have a choice in these matters." Her friend replied. "Those who get in our way die." She simply stated. Miko nodded her head. "I need rest now." Miko rose slowly and made her way back to her bed. Two dark midnight blue eyes followed her as she stepped into another area inside the camp. "Alright. But tomorrow our journey resumes." The voice of the first girl spoke. "Tomorrow." Miko repeated and laid upon the soft furs that made up her bed. The blue eyed one's white ruffled hair followed her as she calmly walked over to the red elk upon which her companion road daily. "So what do you think Chibi?" She asked the creature. It huffed and blue hot air in her face. "I agree completely." The girl's demon face gave off a wide grin. "Off to the village of the Shikon Jewel to protect those whom need protecting, eh friend?" She smirked showing off her tiny fangs.
***Elsewhere***
"You are absolutely sure of that Kagome?" Kadea watched the girl nod. "Positive. She said she was a friend and then told me to wake up and I did. She saved my life. I know it." Kagome looked at their small band. "I did feel another's life force helping Kagome's." Miroku spoke. "But whose I am not certain. The force had to have been coming from some long distance away."
TBC….
That's all for today folks. I do hope you enjoyed it. ^^ I love writing this new fic of mine. Anyway, I can proudly say that Miko no Ti is my character. So she is not to be used without my acceptance. I also own Hotaru, Miko's companion.
Next time on Blood Drops of War…Kagome and the others are attacked by SESSHO MARU!!!!!!! AHH! Who will save them when Inu-Yasha cannot fight due to a similar spell as Kagome's? Opps I've given off too much! JA NE!
