Chapter 13: The Rise of a Fallen Enemy. Part 1



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"I'm Awfully sorry Hojo but I can't become your wife."

"Why not Kagome?"

"Because…." Kagome looked towards Inuyasha who quickly looked away smiling. "Because I'm in love with someone else." She smiled blushing. Inuyasha tried to hide a small blush that crept up on him. Miroku chuckled a little and Inuyasha turned glaring at him. Sango looked away smiling for her friend. She was happy for once that she had done what she wanted and no one else had told her too. She wasn't gonna marry that wimpy villager (( *ahem Kouga*)) or the stuck up spoiled Prince either. No she was going to stay with her true love Inuyasha. ((*applauds* Finally dang!! ^_^))

*pat pat* Sango took a deep breath and sighed. 'Would he ever get tired of my rear? Or would he stop GROPING ME!!' *SLAP* Sango whirled around and slapped Miroku leaving him with a nice red hand print on his left cheek. She walked next to Kagome. Miroku was left idiotically smiling. Inuyasha rolled his eyes upon seeing the grinning monk. Hojo walked towards Kagome making her take a step back. He grabbed her hand gently and held it placing a soft kiss on it. Inuyasha left eye twitched and his claws were shown and he had them ready for an attack. Kagome blinked and looked at Hojo.

"I'll wait for you forever Kagome…just come back when you think the time is right. Making you my Queen will have to wait until another day I suppose." Kagome made a face that said 'Huh?' Sango shook her head.

'He doesn't give up does he?' Inuyasha turned fully around both hands ready for an attack. Kagome sighed this time making sure what she was saying had no fault and he wouldn't get confused. "No Hojo what I'm saying is… that find someone else cause there are better people for being your Queen then me." Hojo blinked he understood perfectly but good women were hard to come by here. Most of then were being killed by an evil force that he still wasn't sure yet what it was. But he smiled and said still having lots of confidence and being a air head that he was replied coolly.

"I see Kagome but I would never give up on you. When I look at you I see something special something you must bring out. You would be a wonderful and strong leader for the people here. You would be a breathtaking companion to any man. I want you to be mine. And no one is going to change my decision." Kagome blushed she had never heard such enormous complaints from anyone especially a guy and not just any guy but a prince. She hadn't ever thought of herself as anything but just a regular priestess. "Kagome your graceful, beautiful, and a kind gentle hearted woman I've ever met."

'A woman? He thinks I'm a woman…' She stopped her thoughts started to linger on her just dead master. 'Kikyo…Kikyo was also more of a woman then me, Graceful, cunning, clever, and my hero. I've also admired her for everything she was and is. A skilled priestess with huge powers. I've only seen them once but it was so long ago I can barely remember. She taught me everything I am…but in the end.. betrayed me? No she didn't betray me…that malignant man Naraku did. He puts her against me and Inuyasha. It was my fault she died and I owe her my life. I'm just a girl.. Like Inuyasha said a Stupid girl.' As Kagome was deep into thought Inuyasha had stepped up in front of Hojo holding a fist in front of his face.

"Keep away from Kagome you slime… or I'll rearrange your face." Hojo smiled.

"alright.. I got it.." Kagome shook her head and looked at them. "Kagome I must be going I'll leave you now to go. Please come back here and visit me." She nodded slowly. Miroku was up on the hill already with Sango followed by Inuyasha. Kagome ran with Shippo in her arms. Upon the hill Kagome looked back at the castle. A small commotion was heard back at that the castle.

"Huh?"

"Thieves!!! Lord Hojo The royal crown it's missing!!" Kagome looked back, her eyes focused on a slightly tensed monk. Both Sango and Inuyasha did the same.

"You stupid monk…what did u do this time?"

"We have evidence that the monk Miroku took it!" called the guards to Hojo.

Miroku had a sly smile appear across his lips. He flashed the crown and turned his back to them. Kagome laughed a little at his cleverness but Sango on the other hand was a little disappointed. "I would tell you when I stole, but… we should run." He stated simply.

"Why?" asked Inuyasha staring at his back. Miroku had already started running.

"Because HERE come the guards!!" he yelled back. Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango looked back as guards starts climbing the hill.

"I guess he's right…let's get moving!" Inuyasha let Kagome get on his back and took off after Miroku.

"Kirara!" The tiny cat demon transformed into a massive Saber tooth and Sango boarded and rode after them in the sky. He guards stood on top of the hill as the Inuyasha gang grew smaller, and smaller.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Naraku glanced holding a knife. Their stood the body of his dead love Kikyo. He was slightly saddened but it disappeared into malignant rage.

"I'll get you back my love one day we'll be together again and you can have your revenge….." he said coldly. He looked at her again brushing her face with his hand. Then vanished.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Inuyasha stopped letting Kagome down. Sango jumped off and Kirara turned back into her original self.

"Alright we are getting closer. I can smell a faint scent of him. If we travel all night and the rest a little and then start moving again tomorrow. We'll be where his lands are." Kagome nodded and felt a tingle of air. Her back stiffed and Shippo hopped out of her arms running to Miroku. A shiver ran through her spine.

"Really Miroku when did u steal that crown?" asked Sango slightly curious.

"Well remember when we were in the throne room and I…" Kagome looked towards the woods and Kikyo was standing their. Blinking she rubbed her eyes and looked again. She was gone. Kagome looked back at Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha listening again to him speaking. " And I was left behind.. Well I didn't just stand their and do nothing I took the crown.." Inuyasha laughed. Sango shook her head smiling.

"I got to hand it to you that rocks! I should of done that anyone stealing anything from that two-faced Hobo is a friend of mine." Inuyasha smirked.

"It's still wrong though Miroku….I know you steal things but I thought you would of changed. I guess I was wrong.." Sango looked away.

Miroku touched her hand with his. "I'm sorry Sango, Your right." Sango looked back at him. Miroku smiled and put the crown on her head. "You're my Princess." he said taking her hand and kissing it. She flushed and looked away.

"Ah That's disgusting." Inuyasha looked away. "Huh? Hey guys have you seen Kagome?"

"Wasn't she just here a minute ago?" asked Sango looking up. Shippo played with Kirara jumping over rotten logs.

"I got a bad feeling." said Miroku looking towards where Shippo and Kirara are were playing. Inuyasha nodded and ran into the sinister thicket. Sango started walking also but stopped by Miroku. "No Sango let him get her, I know there is evil that lies in the thicket and whatever lies in their he has to face on his own and so does Kagome with no help from us."

"Miroku are u sure?"

"Trust me Sango this is something they need to do on their own. We'll stay here an if I get another bad feeling we'll go in and help them."

"Alright I'll trust you Miroku." He smiled taking her hand and sitting down.

"So I was thinking Children, Four Five, maybe twenty." Sango rolled her eyes blushing and smiled.

"I'll think about it…"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Inuyasha ran throw and stopped when he saw a strange white light it was coming form a tree up a head. He jumped into a tree not too far away. In front stood Kagome. Her eyes stared at the figure in the tree. The figure was none other then the ((*COUGH* bitch *Cough*)) Kikyo. "Kikyo…" Kagome stood looking at her master. Slight sadness filled her it was one that made her fill with complete guilt and shame. It was her arrow that pierced her heart and killed her. Her own arrows the ones that Kikyo had given to her and the bow. Kikyo stood before her and smiled. Kagome's eyes filled with tears and she ran hugging Kikyo crying.

"It's alright Kagome I understand what you did."

"I'm sorry I'm so sorry, I'll won't it again master! Please forgive me!!" Kagome sobbed into her shawl. Kikyo smirked and hugged her.

"I forgive you Kagome….. 'For now that is.' she thought in her head. She took a dagger out ready to stab Kagome in the back with.
