Chapter 8.
Kikyo felt her strength drain as another of her collected souls departed her. Kagome noted the departing soul with worry. "Kikyo what happened?" asked Kagome as she tended the other miko. "Naraku sent one of his new offspring to stop me from reaching Inu Yasha, to stop me from reaching this place," said the tragic priestess. "What happened here?" asked Kikyo with concern.
Tetseiga buried itself into the ground surprising Inu Yasha causing him to misstep and run into Kouga sending the wounded wolf youkai barreling onto the large pile of debris with a resounding crash. "Oi dog face watch where you're going," shouted Kouga with annoyance. "Sister!" screamed Kohaku as a youkai descended upon a distracted Sango, the young boy leapt in to action sending his chain and blade sailing past Sango into the forehead of the insect youkai and killing it. Sango smiled her thanks at her little brother. Inu Yasha grabbed up the Tetseiga and laughed wickedly at the remaining demons. Kouga saw the look in Inu Yasha's eyes and quickly jerked Sango and Kohaku out of the way just as Inu Yasha called out "Kaze-no- kizu!" the fang unleashed it's killing power, in a flash of light and rush of wind, the unfortunate demons disintegrated in an instant.
Miroku meant the kiss to be spontaneous and quick, sort of a celebration of their freedom, he didn't however mean to fall into the kiss or to allow the kiss to take control over him but that was what was happening he hadn't expected how sweet the demoness' lips would taste. Kagura was overwhelmed by the warm pressure of his lips as they captured hers, and she wasn't sure she wanted to escape, Kagura relaxed into Miroku not even bothering to let her good sense interrupt the heat and sensation she was feeling as he deepened the kiss, parting her lips nipping her bottom lip before letting himself completely loose himself in the hot sweetness of her mouth, he taught her the dance of tongues slowly. Miroku and Kagura heard the chaos above them but paid it no attention shrinking their universe into the connection of their lips and tongues.
Miroku reluctantly tore his mouth away from Kagura just as the heavy debris were lifted from his back and as relief and disappointment warred through his senses the pretty wind youkai beneath him shoved him away her face flushed. "And here I thought my vengeance was to be denied," growled Kouga with deep menace as he advanced on the wind witch. "Wait, Kagura helped us defeat Naraku," said Miroku only to be interrupted by a chorus of disbelief from Inu Yasha, Sango and Kouga. "What? What are you saying?" asked Inu Yasha incredulously. "Naraku? Naraku is.dead?" said Sango in shock. "How do you know Naraku is dead," growled Kouga. Miroku lifted his now healed Kazana and smiled at the astounded looks as they washed over the trio's faces. Miroku was barraged with questions as the three tried in vain to sort out what had happened the problem was that no one not even Miroku knew the truth of how Naraku had died and Kouga steadfastly refused to believe that he was truly dead.
Kagome was worried it had been over an hour since Kikyo had shown up and still Inu Yasha had not returned from the smoke. The tension between the two priestess' was palpable Kikyo had not stopped glaring at the younger girl, as for Kagome she was busy looking every where but at Kikyo neither had spoken since Kagome had explained what had happened including finding the now whole Shikon no tama, it was then that the older girl had turned icy to Kagome glaring at her with some deep emotion burning in her dark eyes. "You should go back to your own world, you do not belong here," said Kikyo after a time. Kagome jerked to rigid attention at the older girl's harsh words. "The Shikon no tama," started Kagome only to be cut off by Kikyo's cold voice as she said, "Belongs with me, as does this time and Inu Yasha as well, you would do well to heed me, everything you think is yours in this time was mine first and will be mine again," stated Kikyo bluntly as she stood slowly. Kagome felt the hair on the back of her neck rise, as the air around the two Miko's grew heavy. 'She's going to attack me,' thought Kagome with indignation as she watched Kikyou warily.
It happened so quickly Kagome was stunned she was preparing to defend herself against Kikyou one moment and then in the next moment she was seized around the waist and thrown over a shoulder finding herself hurtling through the forest at demonic speed, feeling vaguely motion sick as she was weaved in and out of trees and rocks. Kagome tried to move her head around to get a better view of the person who had her suspended from the ground and traveling at warp speed, but in her current position all she saw was the broad back of what she guessed was a youkai. Kagome stifled a sigh of irritation, as she thought, 'it never fails, somehow I always end up being kidnapped by some crazed freak or another, I should be more frightened, but after the first few times I find myself less afraid and more annoyed.' "That's it buddy," snapped Kagome as she began to struggle in earnest to escape her captor.
