Chapter 2
~Kagome's Turn~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
My body begins to tremble with too many emotions for me to even understand as I scream Inu Yasha's name into the wind. The witch had been too fast for the poor hanyou to avoid and now he is lying in a burning heap just to the right of the creature that has started this nightmare. If the stubborn dog-demon had not made me take his fire-rat jacket for protection he would have been able to brush the spell off with a wave of his hand and finish the battle in no time.
As I stare at his motionless form lying on the ground I once again feel myself scream his name and try to will with all my heart and soul for him to get up and show this witch how useless her spells really are. But as my disbelieving eyes keep watching the burning body, my brain understands that I will soon be next if I don't do something to stop this demented creature.
I tear my eyes away from my seemingly dead protector and lock them onto the object of my sudden hate. 'So now I am the last' I can't help thinking to myself as I nock my arrow to the bow and rise to my feet facing the witch. I can see her eyes are focusing upon me and her hands are beginning to glow with light as she readies to cast another spell, but this time if she hits me I will be not be saved by Inu Yasha, and the jewel we have protected for so long will be in the hands of a creature we have been trying to keep it from.
As I draw the arrow fully back for my final shot I pour the rest of my remaining miko powers into this last attack in hopes of taking the vial creature with me into the afterlife, should her attack succeed in destroying me. I can see her smiling at me as she sees me watching her and it begins to send shivers down my spine, but the revenge in my heart will not allow me to be overcome by fear as my arms strain with the power of drawing the bow.
I can see the witch's mouth twist into a triumphant grin from across the clearing as the last syllable of her spell is uttered from her blood red lips. The light from her raised hands suddenly takes flight and heads swiftly in my direction. With a cry I release my glowing arrow at the witch a moment after her spell is cast. I drop to the ground and cover my head with my arms in anticipation of the blast that is about to take place as the two forces collide, but I look up suddenly as I hear a shout of disbelief come from my shocked opponent.
Instead of the expected explosion of the two forces meeting violently in battle, my arrow has somehow pierced through the center of the spell and caused it to shred apart, leaving the path clear to inflict it's destructive force on the evil being beyond. "No, this can't be" the witch screams as my arrow continues towards her. At the last moment I see the witch trying to put up a barrier in hopes of protecting herself, but the arrow penetrates her chest as the last word to the spell dies on her lips.
My eyes open wide as I watch the power from the arrow consume the witch from within. I have to cover my ears as her screams of pain ring loudly and her body begins to turn to ash. As the sounds of the dying creature slowly fade into the wind I push my weary body up from the ground with shaking arms and make my way as fast as I can to the still burning body of my dear protector and friend.
