I don't own: Inuyasha, Kagome, or my socks. Wonder who does?

Before Sota could break out of Rin's grasp, Sesshoumaru stepped forward and revealed a second sword. Before anyone could blink Sesshoumaru swiped at Inuyasha with one of the blades.

"INUYASHA!!" Sota cried, lunging forward and clinging to his hero in a desperate embrace. After struggling with the depressed child 'Kagome' was able to pry him off the still hanyou. When she turned him, the entire room saw Sota's blood soaked shirt as it was being washed by his tears.

Looking at Inuyasha's pale face 'Kagome' started for the door feigning distress. Releasing Sota 'Kagome' made a sudden move for the bow that she had propped by the door earlier. Shifting her weight 'Kagome' turned and pointed an enchanted arrow directly at Sesshoumaru's heart.

Panicking, Jaken shrieked, "No Lady Kikyou, death is too good for that traitor. We can still make the plan work! We need only to revive the half- breed, he knows of nothing what has occurred!"

Sota, who was still by the corner where 'Kagome' had released him, began to realize what was going on. "Where's my real sister!?! What have you done to her you.you faker!!"

At Sota's out burst, Miroku started to partially understand what had happened. "If that's Kikyou, then where's...

//Damn the monk knows! Oh well a simple memory potion will solve that problem.// Throwing up her arms, 'Kagome' cast a protection spell. Expanding her creation, 'Kagome' was able to trap everyone in her magical prison excluding herself, Jaken, and an unnoticed wide eyed boy from the future.

"Come Jaken, we will need some more supplies if we plan on fixing this mess."

Crouching in the corner, Sota waited until he was certain both the frog man and the fake girl were gone before announcing his presence.

Crawling towards the shield, Sota was stopped cold. Creeping up to his knees, Sota tried to pass once again. Pounding his hands on the humming barrier Sota called out trying to get anyone's attention. After pounding for a few minutes, Sota realized that no one could hear him. Sitting back he decided to watch and see if anyone would find a way out.

Struggling against her binds, 'Kikyou' soon drew blood. Going slack against her bonds, the cold hungry mute miko did the only thing she could. She cried. Amazingly 'Kikyou' began to feel her bonds cracking. The so-called blood coming from her wrists was glowing. With renewed vigor, 'Kikyou' began to struggle harder. The energy she had generated from her anger and despair had solidified into the reddish liquid pouring from 'her' wrists. With one last jerk, 'Kikyou' was finally free.
