Well BrocktreeZero, I got bored one night with my Inuyasha fic, so I made them unite in chapter tweve...I know it's a long way until there, but in two chapters they meet Zelda people....

Anyways, here's another chapter.

CHAPTER EIGHT: Inuyasha's choice

'Kagome… please be alright…' Inuyasha thought, rushing after her scent. He then saw Kagome holding her stomach, breathing heavily. She had run the whole way. "Kagome-" Inuyasha began, but something cut him off. A small laugh echoed through the area they were in. Inuyasha stopped and looked around.

A boy stood in front of them both. He had a black scarf hiding all of his face but his eyes. He wore black kimono pants, a sleeveless black shirt, a long black cape (it was Swiss cheese-d), and black boots. He had blue eyes, and brown hair. "Um, hi." The boy said, scratching his head. "Oh man… Mikoa was right… she does only have one day to live since she ran all that way…" The boy said sighing.

"What… do you mean?" Kagome asked, looking up. "You only got one day to live, since you ran all the way here. And by the way, my name is Hikaro…" The boy said, scratching the back of his head. "Oh yea, how many clues do you two have?" Hikaro said, sighing lightly. "Three." Inuyasha said, walking over to Kagome. "That's good…" Hikaro said, looking at Kagome.

"I came here to give you your fourth clue…" Hikaro said, pulling a slip of paper from his pocket. He handed it to Kagome, and then began disappearing. "See ya!" Hikaro said, fully disappearing. Kagome blinked, then read the paper in her mind. "If you're lost, and don't know what to do, let him see you through, 'cause he's seen the dark side too." It read. 'What does it mean?' Kagome thought, standing up.

Then a familiar laugh echoed through the area. Urasue swept down and grabbed Kagome by her arm. "Now we are going to go and pay a visit! to my home!" The old witch said, laughing. Inuyasha growled, and then watched as Urasue flew off with Kagome. 'I'll get her back! I promise I will get you back Kagome.' Inuyasha thought, leaping through the forest, running faster than Urasue could fly.

~A Few Minutes Later~

Urasue had put Kagome in some green liquid junk, to which Kagome replied by holding her nose. 'Inuyasha where are you?' Kagome thought, sighing. "Ah, hello Kikyo! It is about time you got dressed." Urasue said, smirking while watching a girl emerge from the cave. "Now cat-girl, drink this!" Urasue said, putting a cup to Kagome's mouth. Kagome held her mouth shut, and shook her head violently.

"Stupid girl!" Urasue screeched, waving her hand over Kagome's mouth. Kagome's mouth opened, and Urasue poured in the liquid. Many, many lights that looked like snakes shot out, and entered the girl who was standing next to Urasue. Inuyasha ran into the clearing, and saw what was happening. Kagome's soul was being put into the other girl.

Then the girl stood there, looking at Inuyasha. She said something inaudible, and then Inuyasha opened his mouth. "Kikyo…" He said, taking a step forward. All the lights disappeared, then half of the lights shot back into Kagome. Kikyo fell to the ground, and then stood up, and weakly walked over towards a hill, which would lead up higher the mountain.

"This wasn't supposed to happen!!!" The feminine voice said, making a whining sound.

"I know I know!" Hikaro said, whining also.

"Shoot! …Wait, this can be used to our advantage! If he really loves this cat-demon then he'll go to help her, but if he still loves Kikyo, then he'll go with her! But then…" The cattish girl voice said, sighing. "Then Kagome will die."

The other two voices gasped, then there was a silence. "Let's do it." The other two voices said.

A slip of paper fell down, and landed in Inuyasha's hand. He read it aloud to himself. "Only one more left. Choose one of them… and choose wisely." He said. Inuyasha realized what it meant. Choose one… Kikyo or Kagome. He looked towards Kikyo, who was slowly heading for the top of the mountain. Then he looked at Kagome, who was unconscious, and bleeding from her mouth. "Which one do I choose?" Inuyasha said aloud. Inuyasha blinked, and then his head drooped. 'I still love Kikyo… but I love Kagome too…' He thought, whining a little.

Kagome opened her eyes, and then looked around. "HUNH?!" She said, jolting up. She was above the ground, and above her…body? "WHAT THE!?!?!?" Kagome shrieked, looking down and seeing herself laying there, not moving. "HI! I'm Mikoa!" A girl said from behind Kagome. She had long blue hair, tied up into a ponytail, and red eyes. She wore a green kimono with long sleeves, and a green headband. "Um hi Mikoa… mind telling me why I see myself down there, but I'm up here?" Kagome said, sighing. "'Cause I took your um spirit out and well the you down there is just a shell now. But I'll return you once I see something!" Mikoa said.

Inuyasha blinked as he heard a voice in his head. 'Choose Kikyo, and live with her until you both die. Choose Kagome, and live happily with her… Choose now. Kagome has one day to live, and Kikyo is about to jump off a cliff.' The voice said, then faded away. "WHAT!?!?" Inuyasha yelled, looking at which way to jolt.

He whined and held his head. Go and stop Kikyo from killing herself, or go to Kagome and try to find a way to heal her. Then he remembered the first slip of paper. "Follow your heart; do not stray from it because if you do…you'll lose it…forever." Inuyasha absent-mindedly walked over to Kagome, and picked her up. "Kagome… wake up please…" Inuyasha whined, setting her on the ground.

Kagome blinked, then looked over to Mikoa, who was on the verge of crying. "WOW! He really does love you!" Mikoa said between her tears. "Now I'll let you go back down… if… um well just see what happens." Mikoa said, aiming her finger at Kagome. Kagome blacked out, and fell backwards.

Kagome opened her eyes, and met with Inuyasha's gaze. "Inuyasha…" Kagome mumbled, wincing and holding her side. "Kagome… you're alive…" Inuyasha said, smiling weakly. 'I only have one day to find what will heal Kagome… but if I don't find it… I'll never see her again…' He thought, sighing. "K-Kagome… I wanna tell you something…" Inuyasha said, looking down at Kagome's face. She nodded and held her side a little tighter. "Kagome… I… I… I love you…" Inuyasha whispered. He leaned down, and kissed Kagome. Her eyes widened a little, but then she closed them.

Once Inuyasha leaned back up, Kagome glowed a bright blue. She was engulfed in light, along with Inuyasha. Kagome whined and then clutched onto Inuyasha's kimono. Inuyasha picked her up, and held her closely. Then they both appeared at the beginning of a maze. It was made of ground and greenery. "Make your way to our temple and we'll heal Kagome!" Three voices said, one of a boy's, and the other two of a girls'.

Inuyasha smiled, and began walking through the maze. A few moments later, he realized he saw a ladder. Blinking, Inuyasha uncovered the foliage, and leapt up the ladder, and onto a small platform. He leapt onto a tree branch, and saw a small doorway. He jumped onto the ground, then over to the doorway. Three people walked out.

One was Hikaro, the other one was Mikoa, and the other one was… a girl with long green hair, green eyes, wearing a green bra-type thing made of leaves, a skirt made of leaves, and her lips were green. "Hello, and welcome to the Sacred Forest." The girl covered in green said, smiling. She had a cattish voice, and it was a little elegant.

"Bring Kagome here." The girl said, motioning for Mikoa and Hikaro to go and get Kagome. Kagome blinked, then Inuyasha sat her down. She walked over to the girl covered in green, and looked at her. "What's your name?" Kagome asked, holding her side. "My name is Kerakuka, I am guardian of this place." She said, smiling.
