A/n: Don't get me wrong I don't have anything against Kikyo. But this
isn't her story now is it? Actually I can identify with her more than
Kagome. Kagome is just to bright, sunshiney, and selfless. But I like her
too. Hell I even like Naraku so I dunno. Anyway, I have only seen up to
episode 115 or something like that. So this is just my random take on
stuff. The tama isn't complete and no love has been confessed. Kikyo is
still alive or whatever you would call her since she's not alive or dead.
Everything is how it usually is, with the exception of my plot twists.

Deconstructing Kagome-
Part 2- His Shame

"Inuyasha, you must choose. Whom do you wish to be with? That girl? Or me? Don't forget the promise you made to me Inuyasha. Do not forget." She warned raising a slender hand up to point at him accusingly. "You will come with me to hell one way or another."
"Kikyo." He pleaded. "Do not make me choose.I." He stepped cautiously towards her. Inuyasha didn't know what to do. He had promised Kikyo. He had loved Kikyo. But now. He thought she was dead and he had begun to give his heart to another. He had begun to heal. When suddenly she was thrust back into his life once more. But this time she wasn't as loving and vibrant as she had been. She was dark and under handed. Now only hatred and anger flowed through her even though she tried to mask that with love for him. She used their love against him every time they met. It was always the same thing. Always the same circumstances, the same dialogue.
"You love her don't you?" Kikyo asked interrupting his thought process.
Inuyasha's eyes bulged out of his head in shock and he blushed a deep scarlet. "Keh." was his reply. He couldn't lie to her, yet he couldn't admit it to her or himself either.
"If you'd rather not chose now that's fine. Your test is soon to come. The choice will have to be made soon enough. " Kikyo gazed up into the night sky, suddenly very distracted. A purple ball of matter was quickly making its way towards her. A soul. Her soul. Well part of it anyway. It pushed itself into Kikyo's clay body without the help of her soul-skimmers. It had come on its own accord.
Inuyasha watched in horror as the power of that soul lifted Kikyo off the ground. Purple and pink light emitted from her briefly before dropping her once again to her feet. Her raven hair covered her downcast gaze. What had just happened?
"Soon you will have to choose.something has happened." She whispered only loud enough for Inuyasha's ears to pick up. Kikyo's soul-skimmers appeared from the trees. Kikyo let herself be wrapped in their cool embrace as they lifted her into the air she looked down at Inuyasha. He stood his ground and as she looked at him she could have sworn that tears glimmered in his eyes, trying desperately not to spill over.
"She is no longer pure."Were her parting words to him as she floated away. His gaze followed her until she was no longer visible. Then with a sigh and a "Feh." He stalked off into the forest.
Once again another pointless visit with Kikyo, they never got anything accomplished since he could never make up his mind. He unsheathed the Tetsuseiga and began to chop down trees at random. The hanyou wished to work off some of his frustrations before returning to camp. Kagome wouldn't be back for another day or so anyway he reminded himself. She always came back late anyway.

Kaede washed Kagome's damaged body as she examined her injuries. She shook her head sadly. Silent tears escaped her eyes. This girl was a sister and daughter to her all at the same time. Kagome's will was so strong and her heart and soul so pure. But as Kaede healed her she could see all that slipping away. Darkness was taking this young miko over and there wasn't anything anyone could do about it.
Kaede watched in horror as a sizeable portion of Kagome's soul decided to escape her body. She couldn't stop it from leaving the girl but she knew where it was headed.
Where is Inuyasha? Kaede wondered. Did he go to hell with Kikyo this time? Or was he caught in battle with some youkai?
Kagome's aura grew darker right before Kaede's eyes. She has given up almost completely. She isn't even fighting against it anymore.
More tears fell from the older miko's eyes. She watched in horror as the girl she once knew as Kagome, ripped herself apart from the inside out.

Somewhere off in the distance, an evil laugh could be heard echoing through the mountains and valleys. The plan was working quite nicely. This girl, this girl Kagome would destroy everyone and everything she held dear.
They had taken her purity, and with that her spiritual powers. Which meant her miko abilities and her shard detecting skills. She was back to being a normal teenager now. Well sort of. Any pure energy that remained in her body had been corrupted by the spell cast upon her.
The horrible laughter continued. Kagome shivered in her fevered sleep but she didn't awaken.

Inuyasha raced towards Kaede's village. His frustrations gone, now that he leveled a good chunk of the forest. He was actually hungry. Familiar scents found there way to Inuyasha's nose. He perked his nose at certain fragrance. It smelled like Kagome, but more like Kikyo.and something else. Picking up speed he raced to Kaede's hut. Bursting through the curtain, ignoring Sango and Miroku's warnings, his breath caught in his throat at what he saw. His legs almost gave out on him but he managed to make it over to Kagome's side before collapsing. Kaede had just finished bandaging and dressing her. He looked to Kaede's tear stained face for answers but there were none.
"What.how.?" he muttered.
Whatever happened, it was his entire fault. He told himself. You weren't there. You didn't protect her. You were off wasting time with Kikyo. He hung his head and the ears atop his head drooped in shame.
Kagome stirred, "Inuyasha." she said upon waking.
"I'm right here Kagome." He said wrapping her hand in his own.
"Where.where were you?"
/*-
A/n: I forget what I was gonna write here. Ergg. Feh. Oh that's what it was. I think it would almost make sense for Kagome to lose her powers upon losing her uh.purity. as it were. Ohwell. It's my fan fic after all.
