A/N- Thanks to everyone who reviewed!!! Me soso happy!!! Enjoy the
chapie!!!!
Inuyasha looked everywhere, just to check, to make sure nobody was watching an assassin get used as a pillow...
He felt the girl stirring. She opened her warm, chestnut eyes, peering at him with a cute little smile playing on her rosebud lips. She got up and stared at the body of her dead sister. She slowly tried to pick her up. Finally turning to him she asked, "Could you help me carry her? I want to bury her."
Seeing no response from him, she sighed and continued her attempts to try to drag her sister outside.
Suddenly both she and her sister were lifted in the air.
She was riding in the hanyou's arms! It was so comforting here, she didn't understand why. Didn't he just kill her sister? And yet, here she was, fully trusting this half - deamon.
And he was helping her! He would actually take the time to help her bury the person that he killed...
And the jewel! All of a sudden, the world was pressed on her two little shoulders.
They landed at a small opening in the forest. Millions of wild flowers grew here, their vivid and, oh so beautiful colors looked like rare jewels, sparkling and shining in the soft warm glow of sunlight that flitted through the treetops. Birds and squirrels ran and flew everywhere. The place was full of life.
The sides of the clearing had willows bending over, forming what looked like a small shelter. It was truly beautiful.
"My mother was buried in this spot," Inuyasha said randomly. He looked upward, as if to try to restrain the tears that warned to pour.
"I'm so sorry," Kagome whispered. "You can tell me about it if you want to, but then again I don't think you would want to talk about it."
"Yea, I don't," Inuyasha's voice came out scratchy and strained.
He felt a warm hand touch his cheek. He closed his eyes, leaning into the comforting touch. It felt, so, nice and warm and soft. He took a deep breath, and for the first time, enjoyed the smell of a human. She smelled like honey and jasmine to him. A sweet, sweet, smell.
Suddenly, as if breaking out of the trance, he pulled away. The last time he had gotten close to someone, they had faded away, abandoning him when he had needed them the most.
But something told him that this one was different. Something in his mind screamed to him to wake up and open his heart to this girl. But the other side of his mind refused to do anything.
And so the war began...
Kagome knelt down beside her buried sister, and whispered a prayer. A long at that. Finally they were ready to go.
Not wanting to waste time, Inuyasha picked Kagome up and started jumping to the village. But just as he was about to come out of the village, a barrier stopped him, throwing him backwards.
"Are you ok?" Kagome asked, brushing the dirt of his clothes, not even caring about her own.
"Yea, I'm fine," he muttered. Getting up, he walked over to the barrier and tired to get past, but it just threw him to the ground again. Even the Tensusaiga could not break it.
'Who could have such power?' he wondered.
As if answering his question, a cloud of poison gas floated around them, trapping them both and separating them.
"Kagome! Kagome! Are you there? Are you ok?" Came Inuyasha's muffled voice. He couldn't exactly breathe the air...
Kagome's POV...
She heard Inuyasha's shout, but she couldn't answer him back. Somehow, it was like someone had glued her mouth shut.
She saw something, no, someone's silhouette in the distance. It seemed to be coming closer. and closer! She heard a laugh, a bitter, cold, evil laugh.
Wait... that laugh was oddly familiar... could it be, no it coulnd't be him. He hadn't been seen for 8 years now...
But she became sure as the person moved closer.
Kagome's POV...
I watched, horrified, as the object moved closer. The only thing that was on my mind was escape, and of course, that hanyou.
I tried to breath, but I couldn't. Suddenly, as if answering to my need for air, the space around me cleared, forming a tornado type cloud.
I gulped. This was going to be bad...
A scream escaped my lips when I felt that hand on my wrist. It was cold and I felt its evil aura. (A/N- that's how you spell it, right? Sometimes I mean something and then I end up writing the wrong word.) I screamed again, only to feel a hand cover my mouth.
"Quiet, you little wench!" It hissed.
And now to find out what "It" was.
I bit the hand and heard a scream fill the air, only to be lost in the whirling winds beside us. I swirled around, facing my attacker.
I gasped. "Onigumo!"
"It is no longer Onigumo, but Naraku!" he cried. "When your bitchy sister broke my heart, I decided to become evil, and take the Shikon Jewel and break it, even if it's the last thing I do!" Say this, he grabbed the Shikon no Tama from her hand and floated above her. A dark purple light surrounded him as he tried to use all his power to destroy the Jewel.
'No!' I thought. 'Everything my sister has worked for will be ruined!' I tried to reach him, but he was too high in the air.
His evil crackling entered my ears, making my blood boil.
It had all started several years ago...
~*Flashback*~
Kikyou was in the garden, surrounded by birds, squirrels, and rabbits. She slowly walked around so she didn't frighten the animals. Suddenly she heard a noise coming from one of the bushes. She turned around to see a man, only a couple years older than her, staring and blushing.
"What are you staring at?" She whispered.
"Y-your b-b-beauty..." he stuttered, blushing more furiously than ever.
"You don't have to be scared," she continued in her soft voice. "I don't bite."
He blushed again. "Hi, my name's Onigumo..." He mumbled, still a bit shy.
"I'm Kikyou," Kikyou said. Suddenly she heard her sister calling her. "I'm sorry, but I have to go now. I'll see you tomorrow..." And with that, she was gone.
Over the years, she and Onigumo had grown quite fond of each other, until she had to leave.
"I'm so sorry, my dear, but I must be going now," she had sadly whispered one day.
"Why? Why must you leave here alone? Please explain!" (A/N- sorry f this sounds like Shakspere (I don't think I spelled that right...) but I couldn't think of any other thing to say!)
"I'm sorry, but I must be wherever the Shikon Jewel is, and I must move now, for the Shikon Jewel has told me so," she replied, a sorrowful look on her face. She walked away, fading into the mist...
After a few years, the village was attacked by someone named Naraku. He turned out to be Onigumo, and this got Kikyou mad. She managed to shoot an arrow through his stomach, but revenge kept him alive...
~*Present*~
Now, I watched helplessly as h put more and more power into the Jewel. At this rate, the Jewel would break sooner or later.
All I could do was watch. Watch as he applied more power, watch as the jewel glowed a bright white light, and hear the jewel shatter...
I saw the pieces fly everywhere, each going a different direction, each splitting into a million pieces.
"No!" I screamed. But I knew it wasn't going to help, I knew that I had failed, I knew that now, my soul could be free. I could hate him, I could kill him, I wouldn't forgive him, and I wouldn't forgive Inuyasha either...
But no matter what, I had to forgive the hanyou. He was just to hurt to not forgive.
I watched as the cloud of purple floated away. When it disappeared, I fell to my knees and cried. This was my second time crying since I had been a child.
Tears slid down my cheeks. I tried to stop them, but it seemed like more just seemed to come.
Then I felt a hand on my shoulder...
Inuyasha's POV...
I looked around and noticed that the smoke was clearing up. I saw the girl. She was crying again.
'What now?' I thought. But then I realized there were shards of the Shikon Jewel all over the place.
'Oh no...'
I walked over to her and put my hand on her shoulder, only to get slapped.
"Hey! What did you do that for!" I yelled, not really caring how she felt at the moment.
She put her head down, looking ashamed. "I'm sorry, I was just... startled."
I realized she was scared. Scared to death.
"Tell me," I ordered. "Tell me everything that happened."
