Chapter five: He never said, I love you!

*~*~*~*!Author notes: Since you been so good and that last one was kinda of short. Here a sneak peek of chapter five! YAY! Well not really, since, it is five in the morning!!! I need sleep but I also need some reviews! Also I doing this chapter with lines instead the way I been doing it*~*~*~*~

While Inuyasha, Miroku, Shippo, and Myoga raced though the forest towards the girls. Kikyo was destroying Kagome not with her arrows so much anymore but with her painful words. Sango held her ailing brother in her arms for Kohaku was now unconscious.

Kikyo: You follow him without question. Ever since, you pulled my arrow that damned his heart and pin him to that tree. you loved and protected him as he did the very same for you.

Kagome: We just did it for the jewel shards at the first but then you came and Naraku. Now we really have to get the jewel shards and save you, Kikyo. Then once the jewel is once again completed I'll just I go back to my own era.

Kikyo: Do you have any idea how to use the jewel? I was its protector and I never fully understood how to use it. I was just a young girl, like yourself. (Kagome noticed the pain look on her face as she said that last line.) I didn't even know where the jewel came from or who made it.

Kagome: Mirdokio.

Kikyo: What say you? (Has a confused look on her face)

Kagome: That was the name of the creator of the jewel. Her soul along with a demon's is locked inside of it. Thus, a battle inside the jewel is constantly happening that why it keeps causing such pain on everyone.

Kikyo: So, you did find out about it's origin. Nonetheless, you need not worry about the jewel once it's complete. I shall take it and Inuyasha to hell. (She stated in her cold dark ass bitchy voice!)

Kagome: (mad and frustrated now) Why are you doing this? Inuyasha wants the jewel so he can become a full fledge demon! Not go to hell with it or you! (Ouch)

Kikyo: (could careless about whatever Kagome has to say) A full-fledge demon. HA! Fifty years ago, he wanted to become a full demon. I shot and pinned him down every time he came near the jewel. He never had any kind of honor code. He was cold, selfish, and ruthless. He was like any other hanyou I had faced before very rude, egotistical, disrespectful, and agitated. Like a lost puppy on a hot day. His eyes were cold, wild, and harden with past sorrows and pain. His eyes also showed a great deal of mistrust and abuse.

Kagome just let Kikyo keep talking. As long as she didn't attack her with those arrows, she wasn't about to attack Kikyo. This was her on and only chance to see what made their love tick. Why he acted the way he did when Inuyasha thought that she, [Kagome], was Kikyo. She still got shudders when she looked back at that night but also some laughs. Also, this could answer the question that had been in the back of her head for weeks.

'Why was it so easy for Naraku to make them betray each other and cause this deep hatred in them?' Naraku had actually asked that to Inuyasha but Inuyasha never answered him for he didn't know the answer.

Kagome: What was he like when you finally got to know him? (She said a little to girle as if Kikyo and her had been best friends their whole life.)

For some reason Kagome didn't think before she asked this question nor give any thought to who she was asking the question too. Though from the surprised look on Kikyo's face it almost seemed as she forgotten maybe. Did she really have to think about it? Inuyasha was the kind of guy well demon- guy that you could just forget about. Or could you forget him? Kagome made a vow right there and then that she would never forget Inuyasha. With narrow eyes, Kikyo finally spoke though Kagome wasn't quite prepared for what was about to happen.

Kikyo: He was everything I just explained. Almost like, he is today but he has gone soft for a lot of reasons. Most because of what you and those others have done to him. (She said like she was spiting out something vile.) Though there was a time when I almost did as you have done.

*~*~*~*Kikyo point of view (please don't puke, not yet)*~*~*~*

*~*~*~*Author notes: I'm bad at old English so expect very little. I don't care if it was fifty years ago. I suck at old English. And yes, Kikyo is saying this all out loud to Kagome and Sango but Sango isn't really paying that much attention to the conversation anyway. (LMAO) *~*~*~*~*

Kikyo: It all started when I was trying to purify myself near a spring when I felt a slight presence of a demon watching me from afar. I knew who ever it was it was after the jewel as I quickly grabbed my arrows and bow. That when he jumped out of the trees and stood about a few feet away from me. A dog-demon nay a hanyou! I could sense the human blood in him. He had that dirty little kimono of his on. From his smell, I could tell he hardly bathe and he didn't shave. (OOO scandalous!) He said his name was Inuyasha and wanted the jewel and if I didn't give it too me if would take by force. I quickly left him pinned to a tree with him howling swears at me.

He kept coming after the jewel for months and each time I stopped him. He often tried to take it late at night when even the unworthy souls won't be up and about. After a few months of this little game of always leaving him pinned to a tree for some time I finally asked him why he wanted the jewel so badly. He told me to shut up and it wasn't my business to know. I smiled as I left him once again pinned to a tree while he howled swears and other insanities at me. From that day on, I kept asking him that same question even when tried to it at night. Each time he was annoyed by it but became much more unaware of his movements and could easy be pinned. I knew since he was a hanyou he probably wanted the jewel to become a full fledge demon. One day while in one of his foul mood, he admitted just that as he was struck hanging from a tree.

Inuyasha: Just you wait when I take the jewel one of these days and become a full fledge demon! I'll destroy this stupid village and destroy all these trees! Unless you finally have the guts to kill me today, little Kikyo. (A/N: Inuyasha called her that to try to piss her off but it only amuses her.)

Kikyo: You would almost make me laugh if I didn't have so much pity for you. To use the jewel in such a greedful way will only cause you doom and sudden death. You heart is too full of pain and sorrow therefore isn't pure. As for finishes you off... (A/n: is greedful a word? If not I made it up now: p)

I pulled back another arrow as he watch me aim for his head. I let it got and watch him flinch as the arrow struck just between his ears. I smiled as he swore and made death threats. Somehow I just couldn't kill him for he wasn't like other demons or hanyous. Really, it was his eyes that led me to that decision. In them I didn't see any evil in them just confusion. I could tell that since he didn't have any up bringing as he torn though the village night and day yet hardly killing anyone. There was something about him that intrigued me but I couldn't tell what. One day I believed he had had enough of me toying with him it was as if all his pride had been broken.

Inuyasha: why don't you every just finish me off! I'm not going to stop coming after the jewel or let you live in peace till I'm dead! Do you enjoy pissing me off little Kikyo? Wench are you listening to me? Sooner or later I gonna to take that jewel and you'll wish that you had killed me when you had the chance!

Kikyo: Inuyasha I don't have any desire to what any more arrows on you. Stop coming after the jewel! I will never let you get your dirty claws on it!

He was shock that I could get mad. Although I wasn't mad I was annoyed, he was right if I didn't kill him, I couldn't live in peace. Though it was starting to get that he bugged me even when he wasn't around I started to see him everywhere though he wasn't in the places I thought he was. I started to be careful around trees I thought I was starting to lose my mind. He didn't come back after a long time after that last struggled. Secretly I felt a sadden by it. Had he really given up?

When we met again which was many weeks later, I told him my problems for there was something different about him. Though he still had that same attitude and all he said was to grin it and bare it. I felt such pity for him to have a heart so cold like that. I knew he wasn't that much older than me. That why I had such a sadden look upon my face yet for the brief moment we sat there in the meadow I felt a strange kind of happiness. Everything felt so calm and peaceful and my mind was cleared. I would have given nearly anything to freeze that moment to be with him.

When I looked into his eyes that day. I saw sorrow yet pity, pity for me and himself. That day on, he followed me everywhere and I didn't mind. He had stopped coming for the jewel he only wanted me now. He told me he couldn't get me off his mind. Besides, the only way he could get the jewel was to go though me. He was always near and protected me as he now protects you. We knew it was a forbidden love and I still had my duties as a priestess, which I could not give up for I was the only one who could protect the jewel. He started to have doubts about coming a full demon and the coldness in his eyes where beginning to melt away. As we grew fonder of each other everyday.

When no one was around, we express our love though never daring to go too far. I wasn't as brave as his mother and I had a role as a priestess. (A/n: That answered a lot of questions.) That's when I decided to tell him some of the secrets about the jewel. How it could turn him into a full human thus we both could live a normal life. It was then that he brought me close to his heart with his arms wrapped around me as we kiss. (A/N: gets a bucket and throws up. ACK! I hated it when they kiss. I really do. Oh well I had to put it in here. Feels dizzy for a while)

Kikyo: I love you, Inuyasha.

He blushed a deep dark red when I said that and looked away. I knew he probably never or said those words in years. For what little I knew about his past. I felt his body get tense, as he once again looked me in the eyes.

Inuyasha: I.I.I.do too! I do too Kikyo.

He couldn't say it! Though somehow I couldn't be mad at him. I knew for someone like him it was almost an impossible thing to say even if he really felt it now. Though I still felt a little crushed, as it was time for me to go to the village I must had cried a million tears that night. All I ever wanted was to hear him say that. For those would have been the last true words I would have hear him say.

~*~*~End of the bitch point of view~*~*~

Kagome was nearly tearless now. It all made sense now since Kikyo never heard Inuyasha say I love you. Their love was like the jewel was now, uncompleted and empty. Besides, they couldn't be happy or live a normal life beside of who they were. Then again Kikyo didn't really try to accept Inuyasha for who he was she had tried to change him. Sango had been listen and was silently sobbing on her unconscious brother's head. The shikon jewel had cause so much pain. Now she understood Kikyo. All girls wanted to hear those words from someone they truly loved. Even Kirara even understood the pain the dead priestess felt she had died without hearing those simple yet very meaningful words for the one she had loved. (A/n: You hear that you boys, guys, and men out there. Tell the ladies in your life you love them and they won't come back to hunt you fifty years later!)

Kagome: So why now Kikyo? Why do you bring more pain unto him? Don't you understand the pain your causing him now? He can't stand seeing you like this so cold-hearted and mean. It's killing him inside and it's all because of you.

Kikyo: No, its because of Naraku but most importantly you. I don't know how you got here or why you just had to pull my arrow out. I could have stayed in the land of the dead alone. I see now he never truly loved me or else he would have said it.

Sango: You confused but its only because of Naraku. Inuyasha did love you! He would have said it if he had the chance too. Though even though he never said it he showed, it and that as we all know took a lot of work. Yes because of Kagome and the rest of us he is starting to go back to the way he was with you and even better. He has learn to trust and care about people other than himself. Kikyo, please go back to the land of the dead for Inuyasha sake at least. If you still have any love for him, you would go back and let him also rest in peace.

Kikyo: and be alone again? Never! What say you anyway? What do you know about love? Has a man ever loved you?

This cause Sango to blushed a light red though at times Miroku had jokily said it. She knew he didn't and only wanted her to bear his child. That why she smacked him. She sometimes wish she could have someone but not until Naraku was destroyed. Kagome couldn't believe how fast Kikyo could go from an her pained act to her bitchy act. It was mind numbing! Yet, Sango didn't have an answer for Kikyo either for she had never know a love between a man and woman.

Kagome: Of course she know of a love. Her brother is a young man and he loved her deeply. Till of course Naraku came along and took over, his body and made him slay his whole family and comrades. Yet, unlike you Kikyo, Sango still loves her brother and would do anything to protect him and she won't ever fight him back no matter how bad things get.

Kikyo: a love one has for a sibling and a love between lovers are two different things. You of all people should know that. Naraku will get his fair judgment and will be destroy and sent straight to hell. Naraku is far too weak for me to ever be under one of his spells thus, is true for a minor hanyou such as himself.

Sango and Kagome: A hanyou! He isn't all demon!

Kikyo: Nay. Why would he be? Why do you think he has such a great hatred for Inuyasha? Hybrids are all rival to one another. It's their way of life.

Kagome thought about this of a moment then thought back to Jenji. That wasn't true at all what Kikyo just said. Jenji and Inuyasha had gotten along just fine, well after Jenji's mother bashed Inuyasha's head in with a rather large log. It was full youkias and hanyous who didn't get along. Hence Sesshomaur and Inuyasha or Inuyasha and Kouga. Ack! Kouga well he wasn't such a bad demon but he did get Inuyasha quite mad a few weeks ago and Inuyasha beat him up quite badly.

(A/n: Yeah, yeah. I know Naraku has screwed up Kouga life too only it very hard to download eps on my computer and I really don't like reading them out either. So yes, I do know that Kouga plays a role in the fights with Naraku but I just can't write about him or Rin now. Sighs and goes back to the story)

Till now Kohaku had been in deep unconscious but the sound of his sister voice had awoken him. He fluttered his eyes opened as the two girls were telling Kikyo to just go back to the land of the dead. Kikyo paid no heed to them as she began to shoot arrows at them again and use her powers against them. It wasn't pretty either. Though she mainly inflicted pain against Kagome. Sango yelped out in pain but she was protected in him.

Kohaku: SIS why? What's happening? I feel so warm inside. I can't remember anything.

Sango: Kohaku is that really you?

Sango cried happy tears for her little brother she knew and loved was back even though he still had that evil and tainted jewel shard in his back. He still had regained his memories and that was enough for her. Till he started shaking and holding his head.

Kohaku: AHHHHH! My head. It's killing me! I losing control again everything is going dark again. Sango please help me.

Sango: Kohaku you have to fight it. Please little brother suppress the evil Naraku has put in inside it you can beat it you're a demon slayer.

It was too late the jewel shards had won as Kohaku had began to attack his older sister once more. Kirara transform and acted as a blockage against the two. Sango was only blocking and dodging her brother's attacks. Kagome was powerless to stop it as she had her hands full with the enraged Kikyo. Who now really wanted to kill her yet like Sango she couldn't bring herself to lift a finger against her. Kagome knew it would only make things worst and hurt Inuyasha if he ever found out. Inuyasha wanted to free her so this time she could go happily to the land of the dead. So this nightmare between them would end. Suddenly a loud painful scream from Sango was heard as everyone stopped in there tracks. (A/n: Yes, I suck at fight scenes but don't sue me. One day I'll get better and I'll fix this up plus it like seven in the morning now! I going to sleep after this. Hmm should erase that sneak peek part since this is the whole chapter pretty much.)

Kohaku had hit Sango in the shoulder while also injuring Kirara in the side. As now the poor, umm tiger/cat laid in a pool of its blood. (A/n: Like I know what the hell it is!) Kikyo shook her head this was foolish.

Kikyo: Why do you lay there taking his abuse? Fight back! Before he kills you he under Naraku control again and this time, he won't be coming back. Take the shard from his back and send him back to the land of the dead. The boy has no soul he is just like me. That the jewel out and he'll die.

This was a shock to Sango. Had her brother really died? Was he just like Kikyo? Only he was worst because he didn't have enough power to resist Naraku's spells and brainwashing. He was just like one of his puppets and Sango didn't like it. He was suffering and in pain, it wasn't right to have him like this. Yet, still deep down inside that puppet was her baby brother and he had a lot of good in him.

There was no way was she going to take his life away. She only wish that Inuyasha and the other guys would come to save them as she watch as Kikyo attack Kagome effortlessly. Was it all going to end like this? She thought as Kohaku laid other deadly blow now in her leg As Sango fell on her side. Kagome only thought that Inuyasha could probably pick of the scent of their blood since it was just about everywhere now. Inuyasha must have gotten his scent back for it was he only hope as Kikyo had vines choking the life out of her.
