Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. A/N: The woman that appeared last
chapter....think of her like Zeus. She's the top dog among the gods and
goddesses.
Predictable Chaos - The Fate Of The Jewel
Kagome stood in awe of the woman standing in the orb of light. Her hair was a deep cobalt blue with two gold streaks framing her face. Her eyes had no white to them like Kei's, Kalea's or even a human's. Instead, they were a solid color; a mixture of pink and blue. She was about Kagome's height and her hair hung down to her ankles, quite a difference from Kalea's tight ringlets and Kei's pinned up locks. Her face was pale but Kagome detected a few freckles speckled over her cheeks. A pearl tiara mounted her head and mingled with her blue bangs. Her dress puzzled Kagome. She knew it started in the middle of the woman's chest, but countless pieces of burgundy, white, and blue material flowed from the bodice, giving no hint where it ended at.
"It's ok Braelyn. I'm fine. The jewel's fine. We're all peachy keen." Kalea fell out of the bushes, holding on to her stomach. One of Kagome's crutches that she had lended to Rin, kept her falling to the ground completely. The other was propped up under the tiny child. The goddess sauntered across the grass to Kalea. She stood a good few inches from Kalea's face and looked into her eyes. She then grabbed Kalea's chin and turned her head to the left and then to the right, as if she was examining her for the truth.
"I sense that you still have powers within you..." Kalea nodded. Kagome guessed that Braelyn was of higher authority. "But they are not of the heavens..." Kalea's eyes lowered and that was when Kagome noticed the color of her eyes. The once orchid orbs were now of a greenish hue, and her ringlets were no longer sparked with crimson but black. Braelyn lifted Kalea's lip up and ran her finger over the newly developed fangs.
"A dog demon, Kalea? You could've at least chosen a better demon to transform into. " Kalea wrapped her cloak around her in humiliation from the newly formed predicament. Rin popped up beside her and pulled on Braelyn's dress. Braelyn knelt down to the child's level.
"Yes?"
"There's nothing wrong with being a youkai!"
"And how do you figure?"
"Because one saved Rin's life!!"
"What if Kalea here turns on you?"
"She won't..."
"How do you know this?"
"Because she still smells like roses." Kalea reddened at the remark. She knew the aroma she put off when she thought of Sesshomaru. The night he had given her the rose lived on inside her. Kagome turned the child towards her.
"Rin...that's because of a memory. It hs nothing to do with-"
"Yes it does...." All three woman stared in Kalea's direction.
"I went to the gods to give up my powers. To do so would make you lower than them....they believe to give up a great gift means that you are the lowest possible thing. Demons are lower than gods...humans lower than demons....hanyou are at the bottom because they're looked down upon by everything. My love hasn't left yet, so therefore neither does the floral perfume. It's the demon side of me." Braelyn laid a hand on the hanyou's shoulder.
"If you had just come to me before you gave up your powers...."
"It makes no difference now. They did not grant me my true wish to be a youkai so the love i hold so dear will not be returned by Sesshomaru.."
"Sesshomaru!!!" Rin let out a slight giggle and hobbled over to the brothers marching over the hill. Kalea stood as still as stone when she heard the child's glee. As did Sesshomaru when he glanced at the green eyed woman at the bottom of the hill. He knew the relaxed stance, the ringlets (no matter what color they were), and the reddness in her cheeks.
"Kalea..." Inuyasha picked the disabled child up and headed towards Kagome.
"Kalea....what happened?" Kalea removed the cloak, only to unveil an emerald colored lace dress and sharp claws.
"I gave up my powers Sesshomaru....so they made me a hanyou. And I know you look down upon hanyou so I just came here to say my goodbyes. I'll be on my way."
"What made you think I wanted you to become demon or hanyou?"
"You couldn't love a goddess."
"But I did....I still do." Kalea's malachite eyes twinkled with a bit of optimism. She knew how hard it was for him to say all these things. "But.."
"But?"
"We can't be together. You'd still be looked down upon."
"No...you'd be looked down upon....I understand."
"That was before you did all this. You gained more than love today....which, by the way, you've always had.....you gained respect."
"So that means..?" Sesshomaru nodded and Kalea threw herself into his arms, hoping he would catch her and return the embrace in front of all these people. He did, and Kalea could feel every emotion they shared slip between them.
"Ahem." Kalea knocked herself back into realization and glanced at Braelyn.
"We still have the matter of the Shikon no Tama to discuss." Kalea gave a sly smirk and nodded towards Kagome.
"She has it. And I think it should belong to her. "
"WHAT?!", cried out Kei, Ky, and Inuyasha in unison.
"Yea. I mean this girl went through alot to get it. It should belong to her and she should choose what to do with it." Braelyn gave the same simper.
"I agree. Kagome ,make your wish on the Shikon no Tama. " Kagome pulled the jewel from her hidden pocket. Kalea walked over to Kagome. The adolescent peered up at the female hanyou and sighed.
"Go ahead,Kagome. " Kagome closed her eyes and held her breath as she made her wish. After a few moments she reopened them.
"I don't feel any different..."
"You will." Kalea winked.
Later that night, everybody sat around a fire underneath the stars. Kalea, Sesshomaru, and Rin said their goodbyes and left. Kagome had a feeling that they would be happy. Sango and Miroku had rented a hut for the night. Kagome smiled, for she knew what the couple had in mind for the remainder of the night. Inuyasha crossed the grass and sat down next to Kagome, being careful not to wake Shippo and Kirara up. Kagome gazed up at the starlit sky. It was so beautiful, nothing like modern day skies. Here, you count every single star and wish upon every one of them.
"So what did you wish for?"
"Inuyasha! I can't tell you that. It may not come true!"
"Well the damned thing disappeared from your hands after you made your wish."
"So?"
"So I was just wonderin'." About then, a shooting star raved over the deep and never ending sky. Kagome rewished her wish.
"I wished to live as long as you do by your side."
"Really?"
"Well at first I just wanted everyone to be happy. But everyone already is, and for me to be happy...i'd have to have you by my side."
"So you're immortal?"
"Are you?"
"Nope."
"Then i'm not either." Inuyasha smiled and wrapped an arm around his Kagome.
"So...Ky was in love with Kalea?" Kagome nodded but started to laugh.
"Well.....maybe not anymore...."
"Leave me alone creep!"
"I think Kikyo is a beautiful name! How about I take you up to the heavens....just for a quick visit?"
"No! Just leave me alone!!"
"But I want to be with you!"
"Argh!!!"
The End! Ok so I have a few more ideas but I need to know which one you all want to read first. Angst, Humor, or another romance for Inuyasha. I also have an idea for Cowboy Bebop. Tell me which one you want next! Adios peoples!!
