Chapter 4

Inuyasha looked out the window wondering why he felt so uneasy. Suddenly he caught a glance of his brother's hair going by the window.

Stupid brother. Getting the family in trouble. You realize you could lose your position in the family if you marry a human. Why is he so obsessed with that girl? He wants to marry her then kill her. Just to get the thrown but he knows no youkai will let him just kill him without a fight of families. He just wants a human with almost no family. That girl falls right into that frame. He will wait until the girl gets pregnant with a worthless hanyou, and then kill the mother and the child. What a rude insensitive dog. (No pun intended)

"Inuyasha?" He heard his mother call to him in her sweet voice.

"Yes mother? What it?" Inuyasha could tell she was worried by the look in her eyes.

"The girl that Sesshoumaru is after…does she have a miko smell about her?" His mother said.

"Yes she is a miko, just like her mother. But, she has no control over her powers." Inuyasha said grinning at how stupid the girl was.

"Alright Inuyasha. It is late and tonight is the new moon. I insist you get some sleep."

"Yes mother."

As she walked out of the room she smiled slightly at her son, but he could see a little bit of worry.

"What is it mother?"

"I do not know son, but it is directed at that girl."

"Do not worry mom. He will not kill her."

"Yes son. Good night."

Inuyasha laid down and was suddenly pulled into a deep sleep.

Dream

Where am I?

He was sitting with that Kagome girl. She looked up at him and he was surprised at what he saw. He saw trust and love in her eyes. The look she was giving him melted him and he felt like jello for a second.

"Kagome?" He said. Surprised because he did not intend to say anything and did not really know her name.

"I love you Inuyasha" Kagome said

"And I love you Kagome."

What is this? Why am I saying this? What is wrong with me? Why does this feel so right?

Suddenly he was transported to a forest. He saw himself pinned to a tree but his eyes were open.

"Hello Inuyasha." The demon pinned to the tree

Kagome slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on a couch. She slowly looked around and heard dishes moving. She then looked to the right, expecting to see the silver white hair she saw the day before but instead she saw….KIKYO!

"K…Kikyo!" She said.

"Oh I see you're up girl. Eat this." Kikyo said handing her a dish.

"How do I know it's not poisoned?" Kagome said.

"I will not force you to eat it. I have a question for you." Kikyo said setting the dish in front of Kagome.

"What is it?" Kagome said.

"Do you…remember anything about Inuyasha?" She said looking away slightly.

She wants to know if I released myself. I shouldn't let her know. She can't go through the well…I know because she would have followed me.

"The prince?" Kagome said playing innocent.

"Oh yes," Kikyo said smiling very weirdly. Suddenly the light in her eyes went out "Girl…you do remember don't you? I know you do evil little girl. You will never get away with it. NEVER!" She screamed then she began to rave saying various words that Kagome never heard before.

"Kikyo? Kikyo? Are you alright?" Kagome said shrinking back.

"Kagome…I remember you. You saw me right? I was pinned to that tree. Do you remember? You were still awake when I did it? Do you remember? Let me refresh your memory." Kikyo said as she recited some kind of charm.

Flashback…

"INUYASHA!! NO!" Kagome screamed as she watched the one she loved get shot to the same tree she was attached to.

"Inuyasha are you ok?" She said

"Kagome…I should be asking you that. I have felt this before. The same woman I loved has done it twice. Will you ever do that to me? It seems I am cursed." Inuyasha said his eyes falling.

"Inuyasha I love you. I would never do this to you. This is not Kikyo! KIKYO!" Kagome saw her eyes turn human not like the devil they were before.

"I…I…NO!" Kikyo yelled and ran up to the small girl that was pinned next to Sesshoumaru. "Rin…I am sorry. I cannot hold him back anymore."

"K…Kikyo." Inuyasha whispered. Kikyo turned to look at all the other people she shot to the trees. Her eyes finally fell on Inuyasha and Kagome.

"The rage…I cannot help feel happy over this. I should not. I cannot have this guilt this purity that comes back and demands this body. I CANNOT!"

Kikyo took the bow that laid next to the first tree with Sango on it. She took it and went to the last tree. "I must kill the part of me that wants to free you. The part that wants to go in peace. I must please the other side." She stood next to the tree and whispered an incantation. Then shot the arrow at herself. A white smoke came out and made someone who looked like Kikyo lay attached to the tree. Kagome looked down to find a person who looked like her and someone who looked like Inuyasha right next to her.

"Kikyo…" Kagome said feeling sorry for the one on the tree. The devil that stood in front of her had no power and no way to hold the Shikon no Tama that was in the Kikyo that was on the tree's hands. The bodies in front of the trees were sucked into the well and Kagome felt a deep sleep coming. She turned to Inuyasha, looked into his eyes and said I love you before falling off into the sleep

End of Flashback

"Kikyo…" Kagome said slowly realizing that this must be the power of the Shikon no Tama and her good side controlling the body and giving back that memory.

"Kagome…help me. You are my future self. Make me rest in peace…it hurts Kagome. I am using the one I love. Inuyasha will be hurt. He is yours. You can see it in his eyes. It hurts so bad to say this but I must rest in peace. I must understand this to move on." Kikyo said with her face in pain. "The body will take over in a minute. Run Kagome run to Inuyasha's palace. His mother, she is a vision, she will help you. It is her soul that is helping you. RUN!" Kikyo screamed as she got pale and began to get the light of evil again.

Kagome got up and ran getting to the palace and falling before the guards.
