Chapter 14
"KIKYO SAVE HER! YOU CAN'T LET THEM DIE!!!!!!" It was all in my head. I knew that. My tears came back but I promised Shippou I wouldn't cry over it. I promised. And I wouldn't. I thought maybe Kikyo could of saved them after all. Kikyo didn't look at me as if I would hurt her if she looked at me. "How much farther?" I heard Mionk ask Inu. She glanced at Kikyo. She already knew. "We are nearly there." She turned away from him. We were all silent. As if Aira's death hadn't affected us at all. But it did greatly. My hand was still on her sword that she left. Kanno.. that jerk. "Faye.." It was little Shippou 's voice. Kikyo stopped. Inu's nose stiffed the air. "Something bad is here." Mionk felt it also. He stepped back in fear. His voice was shaking with it. And you could hear it also. "INUYASHA! Something bad is here.. can't you feel it Kikyo?" We were only a couple miles away from Aira's home. Then the feeling washed away. Mionk relaxed. "Lady Kikyo?" A voice asked. She turned around to see Mirei. Inuyasha grunted and turned away in distaste. "Yes Mirei-sama?" She looked happy that Kikyo had recognized her. "Do you want to know about how the jewel came to be?" Inuyasha's mean face turned to Mirei, like he was interesting "Yes.I would." Mirei gulped. "Yes follow me." I looked around as everyone followed her. I sighed and went along.
We came to a cave. "Well??" Inu's mouth was talking again. Mirei turned to everyone. "Here it is." Mionk grasped. "This must be it!" He cried happily. We all looked at him as if we wanted to kill the stupid monk. Mirei explained nothing at all. Inuyasha touched the well and called something to our attention. "We can't get through." Mirei studied Inu for a moment then looked at me. "Don't we need like an spell to get through?" An unfamiliar voice said. I looked around for the voice. Inu was staring at him. It was a flea Miyoga.
"Miyoga!" He picked him up by his forefinger. "Master Inuyasha! " Inu dropped him. He floated down. Mirei's eyes traveled from me to Kikyo. "There is no spell or anything for that matter. When we settled here. We though the same until we found out we could go in their. Now go." She was telling Kikyo to do this. But the priestess looked all around. "Fine then." Kikyo extended her hand to the cave's entrance. We all watched. Waiting for something bad to happen. Nothing did. Her hand went through safely. I sighed in relief. I knew Inuyasha did also. Kikyo went all the way through. We followed after that. I was the left one to go in. In the cave was wonderful. But I noticed among the demon's was a Human Girl with a hole in her chest. "This is a priestess like Kikyo here." Another Miko?? Did Kikyo know her?? Why is she here??? "Well, this young woman had the power to purify a demon's soul by touching them." Inu snorted. "I would of killed." Mirei shot him an ugly look. "One like Myself?" Kikyo was looking at the woman with a mere interest about the hole in the chest was. Mionk was in shock. Shippou looked shocked also but not like Mionk. "What's the hole for?" Mirei hadn't even told us her name. "That's where the Shikon jewel came from." Kikyo looked up at Mirei at the mention of the jewel's name. "The Shikon jewel came from her body?" Inuyasha sneered. Mionk was still in shock. "What about the demon around her?" Shippou shook his head.
"They fought her seven days and nights. She couldn't defeat them and took her soul with the demons. That the Shikon jewel."
Inuyasha's face was bare. "Really? That's good they got rid of that old hag." Kikyo didn't seem impressed. "She couldn't of done that alone. I couldn't of. I would of need help." Mirei looked like she was getting to that part cause she said. "She might have had help." Inuyasha snorted and said. "When I get the jewel I will become a full demon!" Then in a sudden movement, Inu was swept from his seat out of the cave. He landed on the floor outside. "It seems that people who talks about foolish game get thrown from the cave." Mionk said simply. Shippou agreed. My hand still gripped Aira's sword. "What was the young priestess name anyway?" Mirei turned around. Kikyo walked outside the cave. "Her name was Mid---" Mirei was gone from the cave. My eyes looked from the young Priestess to the thousands a demon surrounding her. Kikyo is right.she would have never did this by herself." I pressed my luck several times. But I did it too much. "Why did Mirei leave?" I asked Mionk. He shrugged. Shippou stayed while Mionk left. "Why are you still here?" He asked. My eyes went over to him. "Nothing.I just wanna be alone." I said sitting on a stone in the floor. "You miss Kanno, don't you?" Right now, I could care less about him. "Why do you say that Shippou?" My eyes forced on the priestess. I bet someone loved her. "You love him, I can tell." Tears formed in my eyes. "I don't." I had nothing to go back to. Kanno and Aira were gone forever. "Don't lie.. I just know.after Aira died." His voice was slow and sad like he didn't want to talk about it in front of me. "SHE DIED BECAUSE OF NARAKU! AND NOTHING ELSE!!!!" I screamed in my pain and fury. Shippou went over to me. "Don't cry, you promised me." I nodded as I held back my tears. "How can I? When Kanno, my best friend hates me now and how Aira is dead cause of me!" Shippou looked at me sadly, like he understood. "I understand how you feel." Shippou said. I knew he did but I yelled in his face out of my pride. "YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW I FEEL!! AND YOU WOULDN"T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING YOU'RE A MERE CHILD!!!!!!!" He looked hurt. "I-I am s-sorry I-if I-I made you mad.. Sorry Faye, I didn't mean to really." I came over to him and picked him up.
"No I am sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you and it isn't your fault so don't feel sorry for what I did forgive me please?" He nodded.
"KIKYO SAVE HER! YOU CAN'T LET THEM DIE!!!!!!" It was all in my head. I knew that. My tears came back but I promised Shippou I wouldn't cry over it. I promised. And I wouldn't. I thought maybe Kikyo could of saved them after all. Kikyo didn't look at me as if I would hurt her if she looked at me. "How much farther?" I heard Mionk ask Inu. She glanced at Kikyo.
