Kagome's Memories
By: OtakuSailorV
Chapter 7: Tears
Kagura flew over the land like a quiet breeze, not making a single sound or stirring the air around her in any way that might make the hanyou miles off awaken and give chase.
She felt herself sweatdrop in irritation as the girl behind her peered over the side and made an astounded face.
Kagome gasp and made awed sounds as she stared, wide-eyed at the ground below.
"Kagome is up SO high. Kagome feels like she's 10 feet tall!"
Kagura made a face and ignored the girl.
Kagome let out another breath of awe as she crawled up by Kagura, looking past her many-colored outfits to the mountain they were flying over.
Kagome gasped as she looked up at a flock of birds that were flying next to them. She smiled and giggled happily, her eyes shining.
*snap*
Kagome made a face as Kagura's fan came down on her head.
Kagome looked at her in shocked anger. "Why you do dat to Kagome?!"
Kagura made a face. "Want to play a game?"
Kagome smiled and sat up, watching Kagura eagerly, her injury instantly forgotten. "Hai!"
Kagura smirked. "This is called the 'quiet game', whoever can stay quiet the longest wins."
Kagome smiled. "Kagome's mommy plays this game with Kagome all the time."
Kagura's smirk widened. "I'll bet she does."
* * *
Inuyasha's ear twitched slightly as he heard the wind pick up slightly. He sniffed the air in his sleep.
There was no smell of the enemy in the air, and the wind hadn't picked up enough for it to be Kagura. He shrugged in his sleep and turned over.
* * *
Kagura landed outside of the castle after going straight through the near impossible to see purple barrier.
(A/n: That's supposed to be a joke.)
Kagome's eyes widened and her mouth hung open in a small 'o'. "Kagome's never been to such a big place before."
Kagura smirked at her. "You lose the game."
Kagome gasped and covered her mouth. She looked accusingly at Kagura, who was getting off of the giant feather.
"No! You did that on purpose! Kagome wants a re-match!" Kagome yelled at her until she got off of the feather.
Kagura placed the mini-sized feather back in her hair and smirked at the little girl who was staring in shock at her. But not one word escaped her, which suited Kagura fine.
She walked toward the castle without even casting a glance or a command to follow in Kagome's direction.
Kagome peered around in a circle before following after Kagura, not knowing what else to do.
Kagura peered back only slightly, and smiled at the way the girl tagged along without a word.
* * *
They were deep inside the castle, little waves of miasma floated around them, and out of the doors. Dark things moved in the dimly lit rooms as they passed.
Kagura paid no mind to them at all, keeping her eyes straight ahead the entire time. But Kagome clung tightly to the back of her kimono, her eyes wide, knuckles to her mouth. She glanced around, not able to control her wandering eyes. Something moved and brushed her foot, Kagome went pale and clung tighter to Kagura's cloak, nearly tripping her.
Kagura didn't show any sign that she was bothered, but she inwardly cursed Naraku for making her take care of the child. 'She acts so differently. . .what did he do to her the last time they met?'
Kagura's thoughts came to a halt as she stood outside the said- villains door.
It was shut, except for a small fraction that let the miasma out in wispy vapors.
Kagome didn't go near the door, her body shook slightly as a thread of miasma touched her arm.
Kagura didn't even touch the door, simply stared at it; Naraku knew she was there, why should she lower herself to speak to him to get him to acknowledge it?
Finally, there came a voice from beyond the door, and Kagome's lingering attention snapped back to it.
"Kagura. . ." She knew it was a command without thought. The door slid open and she walked in, Kagome behind her.
Naraku made a face at her, as he could not see Kagome behind her, he instantly presumed that she had come back without her.
"The girl." A thread of Kagome's head escaped from behind Kagura, and he instantly saw it.
He didn't move or say anything, simply watched the thread of hair.
Presently, Kagome moved her head to see who was speaking. She raised an eyebrow as she spotted him.
Nobody moved and spoke for some time as Kagome and Naraku stared at each other.
Her head moved back behind Kagura. Naraku raised an eyebrow as she disappeared.
He suddenly felt a presence next to him and he swung his head around. Kagome was peering straight into his eyes.
"Kagome no know you. Where is Monkey?"
Naraku stared blankly back at her.
Kagura stifled a laugh by her. "T-this IS Monkey."
Naraku shot an angered glance at her while Kagome looked quizzical.
"You no look like Monkey, but you've got his eyes. . ." Kagome put her hands up by her eyes and pulled them out so that they were like slits.
Kagura's eyes formed little water droplets at the sides as she tried not to laugh to death. Naraku made a face as the girl turned her head toward something white that had caught her eye.
"!?" Kagome's eyes went small with shock as she stared at the white robe and cloak that belonged to her 'friend', 'Monkey'.
Her mind blanked, and she sat on the heels of her feet, staring at the white ball of fur blankly; her lips puckered tightly until they were drained of blood.
Naraku and Kagura followed her gaze and Kagura nearly burst out laughing again.
Kagome finally moved again, getting to her feet and picking up the head of the monkey mask.
Her eyes were still blank for a few minutes before agony, and childhood drama swirled in them. Small tears formed at the corner of her eyes, and she buried her face in the mask. Both villains watched her, wondering what she was doing.
A choked sob escaped, and Naraku watched as the fur on the mask started to mat up.
Kagome bit her lip and looked back up at Naraku. "You killed Monkey!"
* * *
Inuyasha's ear twitched again, he would have sword he had heard Kagome crying.
He grumbled and rubbed his eyes before sitting up and looking down at the ground blearily.
There was Sango, and, shockingly, Miroku was in his own bed.
There was Kirara on Sango's head, and there was Shippo. His gaze roamed, as his eyes started to clear up.
His eyes fell on the empty bed that Kagome had been in. "!!!!"
He nearly fell from the tree limb. Kagome was GONE!!!!
