Ch. 7 What happened to Kagome?
Kagome's body ached as Boo sat her down on the ground, his eyes where wide and his body shook as though he had seen something terrible. She didn't understand his reaction nor did she understand what had just happened to her. She felt stronger, and the pain that flowed through her body had now become a dull numbness that was slowly seeping through her veins. Her excitement made this sensation spread even faster. She was confused, though; In fact she was straight out dumb founded to why her body was acting so strange. She thought about the events that had just taken place, starting with Boo licking her. . .
*Flash Back*
Warmth had enveloped her as a bright light encircled her and Boo. The light shone strongly hurting her eyes. She closed them and felt a new sensation, like she was flying. Her body was slowly healing almost, her legs a little less shaky. Her breath steadier, she wasn't afraid. The beast part about it was: She knew while she was feeling revitalized Boo was hurting, and She felt that she wasn't alone either.
*End of Flash Back*
Kagome felt something inside of her awaken with the return of her memory. Her hands shook and a new fear filled her. What had saved her from the fate that Boo had decided for her? A sick realization passed through her. She had doubted Inuyasha. In that moment, when Boo clutched her frail bleeding body she had feared that he wouldn't find her, that he would not succeed in protecting her life. Driven by her fears, anger, and her pain she woke something inside of her; Kikyo. The old miko's power had arisen in her, yet stole what she had wanted the most.
She had wanted to live, so life was granted to her. Kikyo moved one of her arms. A smile was played across the face that would be a frown. Kikyo was inside her body, inside her mind. Kagome cried and fought with no results. Kikyo guided her body easily and gracefully. Kagome looked out her eyes, and could smell Boo's breathe, but she couldn't scream through her lips, use her legs to run, or cover her face to shield tears. Kikyo was in control. The pain was gone, but then again it was greater then ever as Kikyo banished Kagome into the incoherent realms of the mind.
Inuyasha stopped in his tracks. A new smell blocked his senses. Kikyo? Where? Her smell mixed a lingered with Kagome's. Inuyasha felt his heart drop. He started running once more till he had found his destination, Boo's cavern. He walked into the dark cave, not fearing the monster or Myan, but the one he once loved, and the omen she brought. To his surprise the only ones there who where there were Kagome, A shaken Myan, and a very frightened Boo. Kagome stood smiling in a corner, her arms folded across her chest.
"Hello Inuyasha," a sultry voice escaped Kagome's lips. A growl arose in Inuyasha's throat, "What have you done?" Kikyo's laugh echoed in the cavern her smile wider, "I didn't do anything! This is all a sick turn of fate. You see she wished to be alive, and the only way she could do that at the moment was to use my powers, In doing so the parts of my soul in her attached to hers. Because her will power was weak at the time I took over." Kikyo's eyes sparkled as she explained, "It is nice to see what you lover thinks. Did you know she doubted you? That she thought you couldn't protect her? You even almost killed her," Kikyo laughed again, "What a mess you have made."
Kagome's legs shook. Kikyo looked down surprised before she collapsed. Inuyasha ran forward before remembering that it was Kikyo. A pain ripped through him but he contained himself. "Looks like I am leaving," Kikyo chocked. Her gaze drifted. Blood appeared at the corner of her mouth. Kagome was back. Her breathing uneven and rough she looked up at the pain stricken face of her lover, "Forgive me." Inuyasha looked at the small body collapsed at his feet. This was his Kagome, but now when he saw her he felt resentment. She had been afraid of him?
Once more Inuyasha picked up the crumbled, unconscious body of a loved one and carried them back the village.
