Chapter four: Why Kikyo?
"Inu-Yasha! It's nightfall!" Kagome shouted from Kirara's back. Yes, she still rode on her with Shippo.
"So? What of it?"
"You promised that we stop for the night then!"
"Like you need any break! You have been the half of the way on Kirara's back!"
"That's mean! I'm sure Miroku and Sango needs some rest too!" Kagome looked hopefully at the two named persons. She pleaded with her gaze that they would want to rest too.
" We could stop for the night. We haven't eaten anything for a long time. It won't take long until we use our last energy. If we don't have energy, we can't fight, can we?" Miroku knew that only things that made sense to Inu-Yasha's not-so-clever-mind would be like this was. No food, no fight. Things like that. Maybe he would now think about Kagome's suggestion in a new light.
"I agree with Miroku." Sango joined the conversation. Inu-Yasha couldn't take it anymore. Everyone was against him. He didn't have a choice.
"Fine!" He growled and looked around for a good place to stay. He saw one beside the river. Sango and Miroku followed Inu-Yasha's gaze and saw the same place. They both nodded to it. That would be a good place to stay.
***Staying beside the river***
Miroku, Shippo and Inu-Yasha had picked up some woods and Sango had made a campfire of them. Now everyone was around it. Almost everyone. Inu-Yasha noticed that Kagome was missing. He smelled the air and caught her scent. So that meant that she wasn't so far away. It came behind him.
'What is she doing? It's not like her to be alone like that.' "Feh!" Inu- Yasha didn't notice that he had 'said' it aloud and now everyone was looking at him (expect Kagome of course). Inu-Yasha noticed their gazes.
"What?!" Others just turned their attention back to where it had been.
'Don't they notice that Kagome isn't here?' Inu-Yasha self noticed what he had just thought and continued to himself quickly. 'Like I would care.'
Not even noticing it, Inu-Yasha looked over his shoulder. No one was there. There was someone but he couldn't see her behind all the bushes and trees. Inu-Yasha turned quickly his gaze back to fire.
'Why did I look there?!'
A while went when they just sat there and did their own things. Inu-Yasha started to feel uncomfortable.
'This is not like her!' He was the only one thinking of it. At least the others didn't look like it. Inu-Yasha could still smell her. She had to be okay.
He couldn't stand it anymore.
'This isn't like her!" He thought again as he jumped on a branch and from it to another.
After few second (okay, more than just few, umm. maybe 7) of jumping forward Inu-Yasha saw Kagome. She was all right At least she looked okay.
Before Inu-Yasha thought about it he was al ready standing beside Kagome and saying.
"This is not like you." Kagome hadn't heard Inu-Yasha to come and startled. First she didn't notice Inu-Yasha's question, but when she did. She looked like her eyes would pop out of their holes.
"This. This isn't. me?" She replied what Inu-Yasha had said. That was when Inu-Yasha even noticed what HE had even said. He didn't know what to really answer to Kagome.
"You. You usually. Are with others." He babbled something.
'Is he watching me like that? How does he notice something like that when Sango or Miroku hasn't?' She shared some of her thoughts to Inu-Yasha.
"You have marked that but Sango or Miroku hasn't?" Inu-Yasha was in the corner.
"Loo.Looks like. So." Kagome saw that he didn't know what to say to it. She helped him and changed the subject.
"Well, now that you're here you could maybe clear few things to me." Kagome had been alone, because she had wanted to think by herself.
"Like I could help on your problems." Inu-Yasha snorted. He was back in his arrogant himself again.
"In these 'problems' you can." 'I have to make these things clear here and now. We are here just the two of us so it wouldn't be a problem, right?' Kagome looked into Inu-Yasha's eyes. Those golden eyes made her gulp. 'Yes, it will be a BIG problem still.'
"Ask then!" Inu-Yasha wasn't the world's most patient half-demon.
"Umm. I have been thinking some things for a while. About you, me. and Kikyo." This was something that Inu-Yasha hadn't expected. He just remained silent as Kagome made her first question.
"Do you really need me here anymore?"
"Wh.What are you babbling?! Of course I need you to find the Shikon shards!"
"'That's right. Only to find the Shikon shards.' "Umm. I think there aren't any shards left anymore."
"What?!" Inu-Yasha couldn't believe what she was saying.
"I mean that Naraku has three fourths of the whole jewel. Plus to that, we have three, Kouga has two and one of them is keeping Sango's little brother, Kohaku alive. Do you really think that there is need to more than six shards to create the piece that Naraku doesn't have?" Inu-Yasha hadn't ever thought about it.
"You really think we have all?" Inu-Yasha asked and Kagome nodded to him.
"So. You don't need me around here, do you?" Inu-Yasha was going to answer but before he could, Kagome continued.
"You don't need me to find Naraku. You can smell him. It is as good as my Shikon-sensing." Inu-Yasha didn't know what to answer anymore. He had just been ready to say that he needs her to find Naraku but she had said it aloud before him.
"I'm right, am I not?" Something in Inu-Yasha kept him not saying that he doesn't. Suddenly Inu-Yasha remembered that Kagome had mentioned Kikyo too. This didn't have anything to do with her.
"How does Kikyo belong to this?" Kagome had expected him to ask that. She just decided to jut cut right to the point.
"Why it is so hard to you to look into my eyes after meeting her? I have heard many times that I look like her but I don't think so. She's at least five years older than me." Inu-Yasha really knew the reason but it was like Kagome said. They looked alike.
"Still you look alike."
"Like that could be a reason."
"What was that supposed to mean?"
"It would be normal to bother if you wouldn't know me but you do. You know me inside and you know that I'm totally different from her. Still t bothers you. Do you really love her because of her inner beauty or do you really love her outside beauty?" Inu-Yasha had never thought about it. Could he really be that fool?
"Do you still love her?" Kagome asked. Her heart beat fast as she waited Inu-Yasha's reply. Inu-Yasha started to get really annoyed and didn't really care what he said anymore.
"Yes, I do! What of it?!" Now it was said. Kagome felt how something little burnt her eyes. Tears wanted to come out but she wouldn't let them. Not in front of Inu-Yasha.
"You know Inu-Yasha. Maybe I'm not a fighter babe like Kikyo but still I have some things that she doesn't have." Kagome didn't look at Inu-Yasha anymore.
"Wha." Inu-Yasha didn't have a chance to end his word.
"She's dead, you know! She haves a body but what body? Flesh and bones? Not at all. Mud and dirt! Does she have a soul? Many ones but not an own one! Why? Because I have it!" That was the first time that Kagome had said it aloud that she was Kikyo's reincarnation. Inu-Yasha was surprised how Kagome just said those things. Just like that. But he wasn't surprised for a long time.
"Is this what you wanted to ask me? Is this what you wanted to tell me?" Inu-Yasha had his gaze on ground so that Kagome didn't see his eyes when she turned to look at him. It was her luck that's he didn't see. Inu-Yasha slowly closed and opened his fists.
"Was your only goal to insult Kikyo like this?!" Inu-Yasha lifted his gaze to Kagome and Kagome saw hi eyes. They were literally burning of anger. Inu- Yasha had never been that angry in. Even when Naraku had insulted Kikyo he hadn't been this angry. Still Kagome didn't retreat.
"I only spoke the truth! You know it yourself too!"
"Maybe you were right. Maybe I don't need you anymore. No, you were right. I DON'T NEED YOU ANYMORE AT ALL!!!" Kagome was shocked of the fact that he said it and meant it. He said it from his heart.
"Then I can finally return and never come back! I'm sure that Kirara can give me a lift to the well!" With that, Kagome ran away towards the others.
Inu-Yasha growled after her for a while. Then he calmed down little and understood what he had just said and by that done. After that, Kagome would never return.. That made something hurt inside him.
***At the campfire***
Sango, Shippo and Miroku lifted their gazes when they heard someone running toward them. It was Kagome. They all saw that something was wrong. Kagome had a tear on her cheek that spoke too much. Kagome still tried to keep her tears inside.
"Can I borrow Kirara?" Kagome asked as she got to the others and looked at Sango.
"Why?" This wasn't the first time so Sango could guess why.
"I need her to take me home."
"You sure?"
"Totally." Kirara jumped next to Kagome and changed to her true form. Kagome didn't think twice. She jumped on Kirara's back and whispered to her
"Take me to the well." Kirara did as told. She jumped to the air and made her way to the well
"Don't wait me to come back!" Kagome shouted to the others before they couldn't see her anymore.
***At the well***
"Thank you Kirara." Kagome whispered to Kirara's ear as she hugged her.
"I'm sure going to miss you and all the others too. Promise me to look after them." Kirara nodded and then jumped to the air again. Kagome looked how Kirara disappeared of her view. She felt the burning again. This time she didn't stop them. Tears came down her cheeks. She just fell down and started to cry. After a moment she had calmed down enough to climb inside the well and drop in it.
***Now to Inu-Yasha***
Inu-Yasha heard how Kirara jumped to the air and saw how Kirara disappeared with Kagome on her back. Something hurt him again. He looked at his stomach and didn't see any injuries. He just lifted his shoulders to it and returned to the campfire.
Miroku, Shippo and Sango looked how Inu-Yasha came and sat down like nothing had happened. Still they saw how Inu-yasha's other fist was tightly closed. It was now too dangerous to ask anything.
A/N: So this was now the fourth chap. Hope you liked it! I'm not sure how to continue so it might take a while before the fifth chap comes. I think in it Kagome will be attacked but that will be seen sooner. I'm sorry of the spelling things. I don't have now energy to read this all over. I just want to put it already in the fanfiction. Please excuse me of not reading this all over again and please excuse me of the spelling things!! This was now little (two normal pages =P) longer than usually. Hope you had energy to read it to the end.
