A/N: Sorry it took me so long to come out with this next chapter, but I was busy. *cough*school*cough* and the fact that I finally was able to get out a bookstore (my car was broke) to get Abhorsen (then I had to read it, awesome book I might add)

Thanks to Panny-chan, Sailor Saturn, Geminidragon, and solarah for reviewing my story, you guys make me feel soo special!! Oh, yeah I also promised Krazy Dragon that I would strongly encourage whoever is reading my story to go and read her Inu fic, Hidden Treasure. (I'm the only one reviewing right now!! :( )

So ne-ways, on with the fic!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha!! (Boo-hoo, boo-hoo! [I'm crying if you can't tell])


Kikyo smiled, so nice of you to join us.

Inuyasha spat, Where's Kagome?! You said she would be here!

Give me Tetsusaiga, Sesshoumaru stepped out of the shadows, And I will release your woman, he finished, gesturing toward where Kagome was tied up.

Inuyasha glared at his half-brother. Let her go! he growled.

Now, now, Inuyasha, calm down. Lord Sesshoumaru and I have reached an agreement. I give him the Tetsusaiga, he gives me my soul.

The Tetsusaiga's not yours to give!

Oh my! We do have a problem, now, don't we? Inuyasha, I thought that you being with me alive again would be enough for you to give up a simple sword.

Inuyasha froze. Me being with herALIVE? The memory of Kikyo and himself on the boat dock surfaced. But that would mean That memory was quickly replaced with the one of Kagome, completely devoid of her soul, with Shippo trying to snap her out of it. She's going to kill Kagome I I can't let her I promised I said I would ALWAYS protect Kagome.



Kikyo stared at Inuyasha in disbelief.

I said no, Inuyasha drew Tetsusaiga, and I've just realized, Kikyo, I couldn't kill you before because I never really thought you'd actually kill Kagome but now I do.

Wrong answer, Inuyasha, Kikyo's face changed from mild disbelief to extreme anger, and she quickly nocked an arrow, We shall rot together in hell, Inuyasha! She let the arrow fly.

Inuyasha dodged the spelled arrow at the last minute, letting it hit and disintegrate a tree, and took a swing a Kikyo, Not today, bitch!

He missed, however, and Kikyo shot another arrow. While this battle continued with little progress, Sesshoumaru sighed and went to untie Kagome, I knew the miko wouldn't be able to back up her promise.

Seconds later, Kagome was free, Thank you, but why?

I knew all along that the miko was full of shit. I played along and kidnapped you to set it up for Inuyasha.

Set what up for Inuyasha? He did something for Inuyasha, Kagome thought, Maybe he's not as cold-hearted as we thought.

Sesshoumaru smiled, Kikyo's assassination. After all, somebody's got to get that bitch back for trying to fool me.

Kagome just stared.

Sesshoumaru handed Kagome a bow and quiver of arrows, Go help Inuyasha. With that, Sesshoumaru departed, Jaken and Rin in tow.

Thank you, Kagome whispered.


A/N: HA! The title chapter can be seen two ways; for Inuyasha and for Sesshoumaru. See if you can figure out both! And you know the drill: read story, then REVIEW!!!!!
