Sakura-son: Hey guys! I'm really, really sorry for the long
wait, but lots of things happened which made me wonder if fate doesn't want me
to write fanfics, well I've solve those problems and I'm twisting fate (hey
that sounds like a good fic title I might use that.) I hope you like this
chapter I had written this chapter awhile back but couldn't type it. (One of
those problems I fixed) then I was having serious writers block. I know what I
want to happen in this fic and how I want it to end but I was having trouble
making it happen, but I'm alright now. I love you guys so much thanx for all
the reviews I read and re-read every single one.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha and co. if I did Kikyo
would be dead already.^^

Split Personality
Chapter 3
Conversing with myself
"What the fuck! How did this youkai get here?!"
human Inuyasha reached for his sword against the wall and held it up in front
of his face. 'Why didn't I smell him?' he then noticed his claws were missing.
"WHAT! Why am I still human?"
"I don't know!" Kagome said. "You were sick
last night, and this morning when I awoke, you were still human." She
stated.
"Who are you and what do u want?" Inuyasha asked
his youkai half. Youkai Inuyasha just grinned.
"Um, Inuyasha, he's you youkai form." Kagome
stated.
"What? How in the hell?!"
There was a knock at the door. "Kagome is everything
alright? I heard yelling." It was Kagome's mom.
"Um.. Inuyasha.... just stepped on a tack!" Kagome
yelled through the closed door.
"Okay honey, breakfast is ready."
"We have to go back to Feudal Japan now!"
"I'll pack it up for you."
"Can you pack some extra ramen?" Kagome asked. 'Were gonna need it.' Kagome turned to Inuyasha.
"I don't know how this happened, you were sick last
night maybe it has something to do with that." But Inuyasha wasn't listening;
he was staring at his youkai form, whom was sitting on the floor scratching
behind his ears with his foot.
"If this is my youkai form, why isn't he trying to kill
us and everyone in the house like before?"
"Maybe we should ask Kaede, just let me get packed and
we will leave." She said while running to go get her backpack.
"Feh."
Human Inuyasha sat on the floor and folded his legs in
Indian style. He then glanced over at his youkai half 'So that is what I look
like when I'm full youkai!'
"Don't talk much do you?" Inuyasha said to his
other self.
'I can't speak human like other youkai. I can only speak
Inu-youkai.' Demon Inuyasha said in the human Inuyasha's mind.
'How do you do that?'
'You and me are linked mentally because we are of the same
body. So I can hear all of your thoughts and you can hear mine.'
'Okay then, tell me something how come your not going crazy
and killing everything alive like usual?' human Inuyasha shot back at him.
Demon Inuyasha snorted. 'Our hanyou body isn't strong enough
mentally to contain a full-blooded youkai. Our body needs to have an equal
balance of human and youkai to function right. That's why before when our body
turns full youkai our mind can't control it.'
'Feh, well since you know so much do you know why we split
in two?' Human Inuyasha looked at him expectantly.
'No I don't, but I do know one thing, we wont last long like
this.' With that last thought youkai Inuyasha got up and went over to Kagome
who was standing in the door way with a HUGE back pack looking at the two
warily. Youkai Inuyasha grabbed the backpack and slung it over his shoulder and
walked out ahead of Kagome.
"Thank you Inu-erh.. I've got to find something to call
you both." She said. "I'm not gonna keep calling you human Inuyasha
and youkai Inuyasha." She thought a moment. "Alright I'll call you
Inuyasha." She said pointing to human Inuyasha.
Inuyasha snorted and rolled his eyes. "Well that is my
name." (A/N: heh, he's back to being a jerk again, that didn't last very
long)
"And you I'll call Inu-chan." She said looking
over at youkai Inuyasha waiting for his reply. "Is that ok?"
"He can't speak human, only Inu-Youkai" Inuyasha
said
"Oh."
"Come on let's go we've wasted enough time."
*
"Where are they?" Sango paced back and forth in
front of the well. They had been waiting there for an hour and there was still
no sign of Inuyasha or Kagome.
"I don't know." Miroku stated. "Usually
Inuyasha would have dragged Kagome here by sun rise, he always wants to get an
early start.
"I'm worried!" Sango stated. "What if another
evil youkai exists in Kagome's time and she's in danger." (A/N: they have
no idea ~.^)
"Oh no! Kagome!" Shippo cried.
"Whoa, calm down maybe they just wanted to 'sleep in'.
Miroku said, emphasizing the last two words. "They probably had a busy
night." He said as he rubbed Sango's backside.
*Wham!* Sango's hirakotsu met with the priest's head.
'He'll never learn will he?' Shippo thought, he sniffed the
air. "Kagome!" he cried running towards the well. When she was out of
the well he jumped in her arms, gave her a big hug and then look at the well to
see Inu-chan climbing out.
"Ah! Inuyasha is a full youkai." He cried hugging
on to Kagome for dear life. Miroku shot up in front of Kagome Staff held up
defensively, Sango readied her hirakotsu.
"Guys it's okay Inu-chan wont hurt us."
Inu-chan walked past Miroku and Sango and jumped up to a
tree branch and looked down at them smirking.
"Inu-chan? You gave each other pet names. So something
DID happen last night." Miroku stated. A sharp pain shot through the back
of his head. He looked expectantly at Sango who was a few foot in front of him
her mouth agape, Kagome standing beside her was looking relieved, Inu-chan was
still in his tree, and Shippo was looking at Miroku with his eyes popping out
of their sockets. Who in the hell hit him?
"Idiot, something did happen last night just not the
way you think." A very Inuyasha sounding voice said behind him. His eyes
went wide as he turned around and saw a VERY human looking Inuyasha sheathing
the Tetsusaiga.
"Whaaaa?" He looked at Inu-chan in the tree who
was smirking and back at Inuyasha who wore an identical look. "What is
going on?!" He blurted out.
Kagome sighed. "Inuyasha somehow split in to his two
halves last night, youkai," She said pointing to Inu-chan. "And
human." She then pointed to Inuyasha.
"What! Noooooo. Now I'll get twice the beatings."
Shippo cried. Inu-chan Jumped down from his branch and walked up to the
Kitsune. Shippo cowered away in fear. Inuyasha then smiled his glistening fangs
and then reached out and patted Shippo on the head and walked past him towards
Kaede's village.
Kagome smiled. 'I think I'm beginning to like Inu-chan
more.' She thought before following Inu-chan towards the village.
*
"Aye, this is most unusual." Kaede said pensively.
Inuyasha snorted. "We know that already old lady, we
want to know why this happened and how to fix it."
"I don't know something like this has never
happened." Kaede thought a moment. "You say you awoke this morning
and found him like this." She said emphasizing both of them. Kagome
nodded. "Did anything unusual happen the night before, something that
could have triggered this?"
Miroku coughed. "I think I know that answer."
Kagome bopped him hard the head. "Get your mind out of
the gutter for a moment this is serious."
"Kagome is violent when she's angry." Shippo
laughed.
Kagome wasn't listening she was thinking about the dream
from the night before. 'What was the voice trying to tell me? The new moon?'
"Hello Kagome are you there?" Sango asked while
waving her hands in front of her.
"Oh, sorry what?" Kagome said embarrassed.
"I said are you okay?"
"Yes I was just thinking about a dream I had last
night." She stated.
"A Dream?" Kaede asked. "Share with us
child."
"It was just a silly dream-nothing important." She
stammered even more embarrassed 'I don't want them to know I was dreaming about
Inuyasha.'
"Ah, but that is where you are wrong my child."
Kaede stated calmly. "You are a Miko, which means that your dreams aren't
just dreams but premonitions."
Kagome winced. "Well that's not good then." She
looked up at Inuyasha and Inu-chan whom were both staring intently.
"Tell us child."
Kagome sighed. "I was in Inuyasha's forest." She
began. "And something was urging me towards the god tree and Inuyasha was
pinned there again exactly like before. So I climbed up to him and pulled the
arrow out again and Inuyasha started to fall, and then I tried to catch him but
he my hands went right through him. Then a flickered and faded away into
nothing."
Inuyasha stared at Kagome tenderly. 'She looks upset.' He
thought. 'Why?'
Inu-chan growled at him. 'She cares about our hanyou form.
She's afraid to lose him'
'Feh! Why would she care for a stinking hanyou?'
'IDIOT!' Inu-chan barked at him in Inu-youkai.
"Is there anything else?" Kaede asked sensing that
she wasn't finished.
"There was a voice." Kagome whispered. " It
kept saying, 'the new moon' and 'you have until the new moon."
Everyone looked at Inuyasha and Inu-chan to see how they
would react. "What in seven hells is that supposed to mean?"
"It means we have until the next new moon to get you
back together or lady Kagome's dream will become a reality." Myouga said
from atop Inu-chan's shoulder.
"Where did you come from?" Shippo asked
"I've been here the entire time."
"What did you mean her dream will become a
reality?" Inuyasha asked annoyed.
"It means you two will disappear just like her dream,
forever." He said referring to Inuyasha and Inu-chan.
"What!" Inuyasha roared.
"Yes, master Inuyasha I'm afraid so, you were born a
hanyou. So your soul is Half Youkai half human, but now that your soul has been
split. When a soul splits like this if it isn't put back together by the next
cycle of the moon, which in this case is the new moon, then that soul will
cease to exist." Myouga said sadly.
The room went silent. 'Cease to exist' Kagome thought. 'No,
I won't let that happen, I won't let Inuyasha's soul diminish. Kagome clenched
her fist and bit her lip. "Do you know how we can get his forms back
together?"
"Not exactly, the only way to do that would be first to
find out what caused the split in the first place. Then work from there."
Myouga said.
"That will take too long." Kagome said sadly.
"I know how you can find out." Kaede said.
"There is an Oracle, she lives in a shrine in Tosa. She might be able to
help you. Her name is Chihiro."
*
Kagome sighed. 'What a day it has been.' They were headed on
their five-day journey to Tosa and her ankle was killing her. She was ahead of
the group with Inu-chan, Miroku, Sango, and Kirara following closely behind
her. Behind them was a sulking Inuyasha and Shippo who decided it would be fun
to annoy the hell out of him since he couldn't hurt him.
Kagome continued to ignore the pain in her ankle that is
until she stepped into a pothole and succeeded in injuring it even more. She
screamed out in pain.
Inu-chan was the first to reach her; he put one arm under
her knees and the other under her back and hoisted her up. (A/N: Bridal style.
^_^) Miroku grabbed her huge bag and everyone followed.
Inu-chan carried her to a riverbed and carefully put her
down. She then put her swollen ankle in the cold water. "I'm sorry guys if
I wasn't so clumsy we wouldn't be wasting time."
"It's okay Kagome-chan it wasn't your fault" Sango
said patting her on the back.
"Miroku, can you get my first aid kit out of my
bag?"
"Sure lady Kagome." Miroku handed her the kit with
one hand and stoked he thigh with the other one.
She slapped him before the others could react. "I said
'hand me the first aid kit' not 'feel me up'." She said while opening her
kit and getting the bottle of painkillers she took a couple and then wrapped up
her ankle. When she finished she pushed herself up and went limping back
towards the path they had been taking.
Inu-chan sped towards her and stood in front of her facing
the path, He growled.
"What is it?" Inuyasha asked running up beside him
'I smell Sesshomaru.'
Inuyasha quickly unsheathed the Testsusaiga. (A/N: not that
it will do much good with him being human) "Come out Sesshomaru."
Inuyasha yelled.
"I knew I smelt something wrong with you brother."
Sesshomaru said as he walked out of the shadows.
*
Sakura-son: Well that's all for now. I'm sorry for the major cliffhanger but I wont keep you hanging for long. I know you got lots of questions. Like why did Inuyasha's soul split? Will they make it in time? Is Kikyo going to be in it? Why is Inuyasha (human) acting so weird? Does Inuyasha wear boxers or briefs? (heh I had to add that one.) Well you'll have to wait to find out. But who ever can guess what Sesshomaru wants with the inu gang gets to be a demon or demoness in this fic. Ok? Chow.
