Chapter 7: Morning of the battle
_______________________
Inuyasha looked at Kagome, and how she was lost in a trance... Her scent had even changed... But, with Naraku approaching, he couldn't worry about her now...
Sango and Miroku prepared for battle, Keade was ready. Sango called Kirara to her, much to the disappointment of an unaware little Shippo, but upon Kirara's leaving, he woke up, and immeadiatly sensed the tension in the air... He left the hut only to find everyone staring in the direction that they figured Naraku was approaching from, Inuyasha had caught his scent by now, but the others where just going by Kagome.
"Shippo!" Sango yelled, realizing that he had no clue as to what was happening,"Get yourself away from here! Naraku is coming!!!"
Little Shippo just stood there horrified. He looked at Kagome, realizing that she hadn't moved an inch since he had first seen her. Her eyes were different, this frightened him.
He looked back at Sango and said,"What are you talking about! I am NOT leaving! I have to protect Kagome! Something's wrong with her!!!"
"Shippo," Kagome's voice rang out clear, well, at least it CAME from Kagome, but it didn't sound much like her, well, it did, but not her usual tone,"Do as you are told, and as for myself, I am fine, you are just a child, you shouldn't have to subject yourself to this.." She hadn't moved an inch during her entire speach, it sent chills down Shippo's spine, there was something different about Kagome, but he could tell that she was still there, somewhere, inside of her mind.
Reluctantly, he went to a tree, and perched himself in it Inuyasha-style, assuring himself that if the need arised, he would protect Kagome.
_______________________________________
Sango, who was nervous with anticipation, asked,"Kagome, I thought you said that... he... was..." her voice trailed of as she saw a large miasma moving towards them,'Thats him alright,' she thought to herself.
As the maisma approached, Naraku's form slowly appeared... He was not alone.
"Ki--Kiky--Kikyo?" Inuyasha stuttered, seeing her standing next to Naraku with an evil grin upon her face. Then she said, coldly, "Did you honestly think that I would give up on you so easily, Inu-chan?"
She walked towards him, in a seductive manor.
Inuyasha gulped and glanced at Kagome, whom he found staring Naraku in the eye, she was staring Hell, in the eye, 'Kagome,' Inuyasha thought to himself,'Whats happened to you?' Inuyasha suddenly felt stupid, here Kagome was, staring Naraku dead in the eye, and he was cowering from Kikyo...
"So, this is what you ment when you wanted to carry me off to hell, I had no idea you and Naraku had grown so close!" Inuyasha said defiantly in Kikyo's pale, clay face. But... something wasn't right... that, that wasn't Kikyo... No, it couldn't have been, her scent was all wrong... And something about her eyes made her seem all to fake, like a dummy, no, that was not Kikyo...
~~~
Sango and Miroku watched the stare down between Kagome and Naraku, amazed at the change that had so suddenly befallen her. Kaede was standing near by, staring at the site, her lips, oh-so-slightly, curved up ward into a smile. 'Her miko abilities are coming out...' she thought to herself, 'It will only be a matter of time now, only a matter of time.'
~~~
Naraku stared at the girl, who stared back, unflinchingly. She was bold for a mear child, and yet, there was something different about her, he had felt something like this once before, the time when she shot her arrow at his heart, the change then had not been near so extreme as it was now. He knew that if he was to attack, it would be now, while his fake Kikyo was still distracting Inuyasha, it would only be a matter of time before he realized it wasn't her. But something about the girl's eyes kept him from moving. 'No,' he thought to himself,'I will not be desieved by her misleading eyes, though I can't see it, I KNOW she must be crumbling behind her glare...'
~~~
Inuyasha sliced through the fake Kikyo. Sango and Miroku gasped, they didn't know she was a fake, when they look to Inuyasha, he yelled at Naraku,"Trying to distract me with a fake aye?" He started to charge at Naraku, when , suddenly, Kagome yelled out, not taking her eyes from Naraku, "We are being surrounded from behind!"
Inuyasha sniffed the air, there was the slight tint of demon in it, but not from one anywhere near here, unless there scent had been tainted...
Sango and Miroku were, one again, stunned... What was going on? Sango looked to Miroku and said, "Come on, I think we should go and take care of those demons!"
"Right," Miroku replied as they both climbed upon Kirara, then Sango turned to Inuyasha and said,"Inuyasha! You stay here! Me and Miroku will go take care of the other demons!"
"Fine by me," Inuyasha said as he un-sheathed the Tetsaiga.
"Naraku," Kagome's voice called out, it was cruel and taunting, a voice so unlike her own that, had Inuyasha not seen her mouth moving with the words, he would have not known it were her speaking. "It seems that, piece by piece, your little plan is crumbling around you." A cruel smile formed on her lips.
In Kagome's head, she was still dreaming, none of this could be real, she was staring down Naraku in the face, she was speaking down to him as though she had the power to distroy him in one blow... It couldn't be real... Could it? Inuyasha's hand on her shoulder told her it was, she looked at him, and a new determination filled her to the brim, she felt powerful, unstopable, the only problem was she didn't know what to do, but for some reason, she felt she didn't need to, that it would just come to her.
Inuyasha was a little suprised when she looked at him, he was half expecting her to be completely gone from the way she was acting. But her eyes were normal, still shining and beautiful, letting him know that she was still in there.
~~~
Kaede was still standing in the back, her smile slightly widening...'Yes,' she thought,' My prediction will take place... today Naraku shall fall...'
~~~
Kagome shifted her eyes back to Naraku's. She noticed his smirk, she then said ,"Speak."
"Stupid child," He started,"You are very foolish for your actions... Very foolish indeed. You do realize, don't you, that you can't beat me, it simply cannot happen."
"Who says anything about HER beating you?" Inuyasha asked harshly.
"Well, if you don't plan on her fighting me, then why has she insisted upon staring at me?" Naraku asked.
"Naraku, you will fall... Today." Kaede's voice rang out from behind them, Inuyasha turned to her and asked, "What?"
"Naraku," She continued, "You will fall today, your reign of terror shall end!"
"And just how," Naraku hissed,"Do you expect that to happen with an unworth hanyou and a mear child?"
"Unworthy hanyou?" Kaede asked."Well, you're right, there is an unworthy half-demon here, but it most certainly is not Inuyasha, did you think I did not know?"
Kagome and Inuyasha procesed what she had just said, why hadn't she told them before? And why was she so sure that today would be the day they defeated Naraku?
"And as for Kagome being a "mear child", well, I should hope you know that you have before you one of the most, if not the most powerful Mikos alive." Kaede said triumphantly.
"That girl? That child?" Naraku asked, sounding disgusted...
"Wha--" Was all Inuyasha could get out. He wondered why Kagome was taking everything in stride, I mean, sure, she had been calm all day, but even after that?
"Well, I don't see why we are just standing around here, I came here for a purpose, and, luckily for you, Inuyasha, it is not your life that I seek," he shifted his gaze from Inuyasha's to Kagome's and said,"It is hers." Slowly, a somewhat horrified look crept upon his face, then it spread as Inuyasha soon aquired one... Kagome's eyes and turned completely white, the Shiekon Jewl that she kept on a necklace had levitated, she smiled, and held her right arm directly in front of her, the palm of her hand up, a blast was emitted that would have struck Naraku in the chest, had he not dogded.
Inuyasha backed up to Kaede, were he asked,"What the hell is happening?"
"Kagome is the chosen one," she said with a smile,"There have been many a miko in the past that have shared that very soul." She looked at Inuyasha and saw the shocked look upon his face, then she added,"Surely you didn't think that that soul originated with Kikyo? Did you? No, that is a soul many thousands of years old I would assume..." she looked towards the fight, were Kagome had Naraku constanly dodging, she was now using her bow and arrow as well as the engery emitted form her hand..."It was a ledgend, very old indeed, an almost untamable soul with immence power that could only be harnessed if the soul was tamed..." She looked again at Inuyasha, "Kikyo let the wild soul consume her, like many a miko before her, Kagome, as I said, is the chosen one, she has the ability to tame the wild soul, and use its immence power, as she is now..."
Inuyasha nodded his head in understanding...'Kagome,' he thought,'Well, I guess you didn't need me to protect you after all...' He smiled, he, didn't know why, but something inside him swelled with pride.
"Inuyasha," Kaede said,"You should help her, I think. Yes, she wasn't ment to defeat him on her own. Help her."
Kagome struck Naraku, but it wasn't a fatal blow, at that, Inuyasha jumped into the fight, Naraku was going to die, and they were going to do it together.
