Shattered Dreams and Broken Hearts
Chapter 5
"Inuyasha!" someone yelled as a demon plunged through the roof of the shrine. There was much screaming and running around.
The demon landed and covered his face to keep from inhaling dust. His golden eyes narrowed in the dim light and he grinned, the jewel was his!
Inuyasha walked over to the glowing orb and snatched it, flexing his muscles as some of the power entered his body.
In a moment, he was brought back to reality as his ears swiveled and picked up the sounds of running feet and familiar voices.
Inuyasha decided that he better get going and jumped out the way he came in. He began running away from the shrine, dodging arrows and smirking when he saw how bad the shrine protectors' aims were. He leaped over a wall and landed with ease smirking at how hard they wee trying to catch him.
They'll never catch me! Not with the jewel aiding me! With this, I can now become the most powerful demon in the world!'
Another arrow went sailing past his head and he just managed to miss it. His hopes began to dim and his nose wrinkled in disgust. 'I can smell her.'
Inuyasha knew that sent anywhere. He knew he had better leave soon because Kikyo wasn't a very forgiving person.
"Inuyasha!" the miko yelled.
He had kept running but hesitated slightly when he caught the scent of blood. 'What?'
Another arrow shot by him and grazed his arm. "Inuyasha, how dare you betray me!" Kikyo yelled.
'How dare you betray me? Why are you shooting at me!?'
Kikyo took aim again, determined not to let him get away. She let the arrow fly and it hit its mark.
Inuyasha grunted in pain as the arrow pierced his chest and pinned him to a tree. Pain shot up his arm and it felt as if his heat had just exploded. 'Why did she shoot me? You betrayed me Kikyo!' He hissed in pain as blood began to pour from the wound. Normally, arrows didn't have this affect but Kikyo wasn't a normal human.
"Sister Kikyo!" a small girl yelled, "Sister Kikyo, are you ok? What happened?"
The little girl ran up to her sister and gasped when she saw that she was covered in blood. Kikyo had collapsed to the floor, her arrows spilling from her pack. She leaned against her bow for support.
"No I'm afraid that I'm not ok Kaede," Kikyo said and coughed up blood, "Promise you'll take care of the jewel for me?" Kikyo asked as her gaze moved over to Inuyasha, who was still holding it.
"Sister Kikyo! Sister Kikyo!" Kaede began to cry. The little girl gasped as her sister collapsed falling unconscious for the last time.
Inuyasha had slowly been loosing consciousness as well but had heard the conversation. Not only was he was crushed that his love had betrayed him, he was also angered that someone had hurt her. 'But who? It couldn't have been me, I'd never do this to her…'
As he slipped deeper out of consciousness his hand loosened its grip on the jewel. It clanked to the ground and landed in a pool of blood.
"She's dead…" was the last thing Inuyasha heard before falling into a deep sleep.
