To Play Hate's Advocate

By: Fire

~Hate can be a very dangerous thing, and this is what hate did to Kagome.~

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own InuYasha and etc.

Authors note: Far be it for me to say any and or all my fics are 100% happy and cheery, but this fic gets rather dark. It has a lot of bad things set to happen, but of course will try to be entertaining. Now onward-

Hate.

*

The one human emotion that has always failed to be deleted from existence in the soul. It lives off sorrow, anger, and in completion as well as a number of other darker emotion. The human feeling which only competes with moral. That holds human beings from becoming completely pure.

She felt hate right now. She hated the Shikon jewel, she hated Kikyou, and InuYasha. She hated always being compared to someone else, always being looked down upon. She detested and despised everything that brought her sorrow. For right now, she hated the world.

Pure hatred usually fades with time, but is always there. Yet in that time, hate would drive the human to do something that would put any common demon's worst to shame.

This was hate, and hate was a very dangerous thing.

The shades were drawn blocking any light, but those dim streams from the moon which peaked through the gaps. Amounts the messy bedcovers, and ragged torn cloth Kagome lay askew.

Her heart clenched painfully every beat. Kagome had to bring a hand to her chest, and force herself to calm down before she got a heart attack.

"God." She muttered weakly, blinking burning tears from her eyes.

She felt so awful, she nearly wanted to end it all right here and now. To die. To be free of pain, but now wasn't the time. It was terrible. She'd already asked herself how the hanyou managed to do this to her every time.

Managed to hurt her already broken heart even further.

"I should be used to it by now. Kagome you idiot, you have to get a grip! The only reason to return is to finish your obligation of collecting the Shikon shards- right?" She attempted to pull her thoughts in correct order by explaining to herself the more obvious things.

Though her heart, mind, and soul protested from the rational thought she wished true.

'I can't believe InuYasha! Is it because you try harder when one doesn't return the feeling?" She directed the question to herself, and began to grow angry once more.

Kagome was hardly the type to hear 'no' and pout forever. To get angry and lose her mind with rational thoughts. Still this was beginning to drive her insane.

InuYasha thinks he can go back from her and Kikyou, yet say there is no emotion for either of them.

'How dare that inconsiderate bastard.' Fresh tears flooded her eyes which she wiped away quickly.

"He's so used to having everything he wants all the time. I'll get it my way for once." She said aloud, new hatred burning in her.

She began to plan, dangerous plans, such evil and devastating plans it would make Naraku look bad. Now, she just needed the power, and satisfaction with hers.

With so much evil lurking around in the feudal ages, she wasn't far from it. Kagome snickered, laughing at horrible thoughts.

Hate made humans do things beyond rational thought, and this is what hate did to Kagome.

"Oi bitch, where the hell are you?" InuYasha's voice flowed through her open window.

Kagome made no motion to move from where she was spread out on the bed, he had a nose, let him find her himself.

He did in with a matter of moments, InuYasha burst through the windows ripping through the blinds like they were paper. He dusted off the broken curtain.

"Wench, what the hell are you doing blocking your window." He never made eye contact until his eyes drifted over to where she was slumped in the covers, in the darkness nonetheless.

"What the hell? Kagome?" He came over confused, and ripped the covers up in clawed hands bringing them toward the side of the head before dropping them carelessly to the floor.

Kagome grunted, and rolled over to her opposite facing the wall, and not facing the light which threaten to blind her.

Kagome recently was feeling extreme hatred and anger to anything that annoyed her, had plotted some serious demise, and hadn't been out in the light for days.

He was the last person she wanted to see right now.

InuYasha briefly scanned her fragile form with his eyes before he leaned down to sweep his arms around her waist, his original intent to swing her around his shoulder.

But Kagome had other ideas.

With a violent, and more or less, unexpected jerk, he toppled down on the bed, half of his upper half covering her legs, but his face cupped in her hands she lured up to see his eyes.

Kagome hadn't wanted anyone to find out upfront, but InuYasha got one good look in his eyes, and knew something was wrong.

Her eyes weren't even brown anymore, they were midnight blue, almost entire black. They still shinned dangerously looking into his amber ones.

She pulled him forward so far he had to stretch out, her lips closer to his ear. So close, but he could barely even hear what she said even with his super hearing.

"Rule one InuYasha, touch me again, and I will re-pin you to the tree so you'd never come back again."

With that hard hiss, she shoved him off her, giving her a chance to get up from bed, and escape out of the room.

InuYasha made no motion to go after her. He just sat on the floor, his poor brain trying to register what just happened.

His Kagome? Acting like that?

What the hell could have gotten into her?

InuYasha's ears flatten against his skull when he finally got up sniffing out the retreating figure. She was in the kitchen, and by the smell of it, no one else was home.

While InuYasha had been distracted Kagome picked up a smaller black bag, and ran off to the kitchen.

She scrutinized the butcher knives as quickly as she could before picking a relatively sharp, and thin one before slipping away in her bag.

'Might as well be prepared.' Kagome reminded herself. 'It's dangerous, but no one lives forever.'

InuYasha came down to find her packing away numerous supplies, acting as if nothing happened.

He narrowed his eyes dangerously. He would find out what happened to Kagome if it was the last thing he did.

Kagome on the other hand laughed to herself. She would have her revenge, if it was the last thing she did. Her actions powered on hate, and overwhelmed anger.

Like stated before. Hate can be a very dangerous thing, and this is what hate did to Kagome.
