"The spirit shield is gone!' exclaimed Inuyasha before running into the woods where Kagome supposedly is. 'I hope that scream didn't come from Kagome!' Earlier, he heard a scream that startled him and he became worried. As he ran into the woods, he kept thinking what Kikyo might have done to Kagome. He ran into a clearing and spotted a raven black haired girl in the middle unconscience. "Kagome!" he yelled. He walked over to her and gently picked her up. "Kagome. what happened to you?" There were no visible scratches or wounds but he could tell something was wrong. She seemed lifeless in his arms and almost cold. "Kagome?" Her eyes started to open a little bit they showed no emotion. When he let her go she fell limply to her knees. She looked as if she never fell. No emotion of surprise or hurt. "What's wrong with you? Can't you stand up? Say something!!" "Inuyasha. no.no." She murmered very silently but he could still hear her. He moved toward her to pick her up but she started to say something else. "Inuyasha? Why Kikyo. why did you choose her? Do I not matter to you?"

( Kagome's Dream)
"Inuyasha! Where are you?" She continued walking through the black
forest. "Inuyasha!" She then came to a clearing but dreaded what she
saw. There was Inuyasha and Kikyo under the God tree kissing.
"Inuyasha. no.no." Kikyo turned towards her and just smiled. Inuyasha
glanced up and saw her. "Inuyasha? Why Kikyo. why did you choose her?
Do I not matter to you?" His head fell forward and he stepped in front
of Kikyo. When he looked up, his eyes were blood red and he had face
markings of a full demon. He started to flex his claws. "You never
mattered to me wench! You were only a shard detector!" he growled to
her. "Inuyasha. No! Sit boy!" she screamed but there was no thud. She
looked up and saw that the beads were gone. "Oh no!" She turned and
ran as fast as she could through the forest. Behind her she could hear
Inuyasha gaining on her. 'I must get to the well and seal it when I
get to my era!' She kept on running and finally found the well but
Kikyo was there with a bow and arrow aimed at her. "Seems there's no
where to go wench!" came a low growl from behind her. Kikyo let her
arrow go and it zoomed towards Kagome. She started to dodge it but
Inuyasha grabbed her arms so tight that blood trickled down her
wrists. "No!" A wirlwind came up and snatched Kagome before the arrow
hit her. The arrow hit Inuyasha instead and he reverted back to a
hanyou before passing out. Kagome looked up to see the face of her
savoror and was surprised to see Kouga.
