Chapter 2
"I'm going to revive Kagome."
"But how…she's, she's dead." Miroku seemed confused. Sango looked up hopefully at Inu-Yasha. "Can you really do that?" Her eyes glittered out of joy. "Tell us your plan Inu-Yasha." Miroku was interested now. As he started to walk out, he told them. "I'm going to give the tetsiga to Sesshomaru, in return for the tensega." They gasped. "Inu-Yasha! If you give the tetsiga to a killer like Sesshomaru, well, who knows what he will do! Is this really a wise decision?" Inu-Yasha looked over at them with sadness visible in his face.
"It's the only way. And if there is a way, I must take it. I can't accept Kagome's death." He turned back around. "I'm going alone." This time Sango stood up. "Wait, shouldn't we go with you? If Sesshomaru attacks with the tetsiga, you're done for!"
He just kept walking, ignoring her. "I don't want it to seem like an attack." He started to run and disappeared into the night, hopefully to return with Kagome. Sango wiped the last few tears from her face. 'Please, please let him make it'

Inu-Yasha ran as fast as he could in the forest, looking for his older brother's sent. 'Great! The one time I want to run into Sesshomaru I can't find him! And if I don't hurry, Kagome's soul will be bounded to Kikyo!' He sniffed the air again and smelled something familiar… 'Kikyo, no! Not now!' He ran faster in hopes of losing her, but her soul-snatchers flew next to him. Right in front of him in the path, she just seemed to appear. "Inu-Yasha, the girl is dead. My soul can come back to me, and I will truly live again."
She walked closer in an attempt to embrace him, but he pushed her aside and tried to keep running.
"Why do you not hold me? Soon, my soul-snatchers find the girl's soul, and make me whole." A slight evil grin crossed her delicate features. "You hold her body, is it not an offering to me?" Inu-Yasha grew tiered of Kikyo's little games. "Kikyo, I'm going to revive her." He looked at her, his eyes hard and stern. She kept on her usual mask of no emotion. "If you do that, I will continue to be a soulless shell. Is that what you want for me?" Inu-Yasha was impatient with her.
"Kikyo! Right now I couldn't care less if you died and went to Hell! Kikyo, you know as well as I do that we never really loved each other. A long time ago, you were pure and kind. Now, you are a ghost in a body of mud, stealing the souls of dead girls to keep yourself alive. Your DEAD!!!"
Kikyo's eyes narrowed. "Inu-Yasha, you promised you would die and come to Hell with me. Is this girl so much more important that you will abandon me? YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO FORGET ME, INU-YASHA!!!" "I might not be able to now, but little by little, Kagome is helping me trust again, and forget you." He walked down the path as Kikyo stared at his with a death glare.
'Inu-Yasha, you and that girl WILL die, if I die doing so.' Her soul-snatchers swirled around her and she flew into the air with them. 'Some day.'

"Lord Sesshomaru! Wait for me!" Jaken stumbled after the dog youki. "Jaken, I sense Inu-Yasha, but his sent is also mixed with that of a human body. Perhaps he had become a full youki again." He whispered with the usual blank expression. "But, why should we care if the worthless Hanyo should be a full youki?" Sesshomaru stopped suddenly. "He's coming." He stood patently in the bushes for his younger brother.

After searching for hours, Inu-Yasha finally found Sesshomaru's sent…and it was getting closer. "Sesshomaru! Show yourself!" The dog youki stepped gracefully out of the bushes, followed by his toed-like minion, Jaken. But what really surprised Inu-Yasha, was the little girl that followed behind and clung to Sesshomaru's fur. "Rin, step aside with Jaken. She nodded and scurried off, looking curiously out at Inu-Yasha. "Sesshomaru, I want to trade my tetsiga, in return for your tensega.
Sesshomaru didn't move, nor did he move towards getting out his sword. He kept his mask of no emotion. "Why do you wish to give me the tetsiga? As well, before, when I first sensed you, you had the smell of a human body and blood."
"I need the tensega, if you want to trade, do it now!" His anger immediately melted as he looked at the thing he was carrying. In another second, Sesshomaru realized why; 'His woman has been killed, and he wishes to use my sword to revive her.' Rin stood by the side, staring at Kagome's body. Slowly, she stood and walked up to Inu-Yasha. "Rin, go back to the side." If Inu-Yasha didn't know better, he'd say there was a hint of worry in his voice. The girl pulled on his arm to see Kagome better. Sesshomaru was relieved he didn't hurt her, even though he didn't show it. 'He is being kind to Rin, yet I am his enemy. He really has grown weak.' "Inu-Yasha, I must wonder why you are willing to give your mighty sword for this human girl?"
