'~~~'- Thought
~~*Arrow of love*~~
Inuyasha's attention was slowly drawn away from Kagome as he tried to isolate the sent. "What is it?" she asked, now worried at his actions. "I...I smell blood". Kagome's expression of worry turned to panic. "Lets go," he said to her bluntly. Kagome nodded before climbing onto his back, and leaping forward into the trees.
~~*~~ "This is sure to get him hear, and as soon as he sees me, I'll have him!" the person said grinning.
~ ~ ~ Inuyasha ran fast through the forest following the sent. 'I wonder who's hurt, I hope its not to serious' Kagome thought while watching the forest come rushing towards her from Inuyasha's back. "Almost there" Inuyasha said still running. Finally they arrived at a small clearing; in the center was Kikyo with what looked to be the same fatal wound across her shoulder. Inuyasha was in complete distress. "Kikyo...."Kagome looked away from the seen. It hurt her so much inside to think that one minute Inuyasha could be with her, so close, then the next have him snatched away with the slightest whim of Kikyo. "Kagome...she's bleeding bad is there anything you can do to help her?" Inuyasha asked. "I'll go find some herbs" she replied back. 'Hold on Kikyo, Kagome will be back to help' Inuyasha thought as he watched Kagome jog away from the clearing. He looked down at her face calm and cold. "Kikyo who would do this to you" he whispered. Kikyo's eyes shot open as a smirk formed at her lips. "Fool..."she said standing up "you sent away the only thing that might have kept you alive". Inuyasha backed away slowly (an: more like scooted cause he's still on the ground) "Kikyo..." but before he could finish roots ad vines rapped around his wrists and ankles, binding him to a giant tree. The vines spread latching him on tightly. Kikyo picked up a bow and quiver of arrows from behind a bush. She drew an arrow out latching it on to her bow, pointing at Inuyasha's heart. "Kikyo, why are you doing this?" Inuyasha asked trying to figure out why in the world she would want to kill him. "You have betrayed me for the last time, and I will not stand for it. If you will refuse to devote your self to me on your own, I will have to remove the only obstacle in the way or kill you." Inuyasha wide eyed breathed in sharply "Kagome..." "So Inuyasha will be with me or will you have to watch her die," Kikyo asked. "I can't love you anymore, my heart is hers, and your heart is forever cold now, you're not the same Kikyo I loved all that time ago." Inuyasha replied. 'Hold on Kagome I'm coming' ~~*~~ Kagome finally started back to the clearing with a handful of herbs. 'I hope she's lasted this long...If only Inuyasha would ever look at me with the same worry and love as how he looks at Kikyo. But he never will, I have to face facts he loves her and nothing will change it. Not even how much I love him.' Sighing she reached just out side the clearing but was stopped by Inuyasha. "She's dead, you took to long. How could you let her die Kagome, you knew I loved her that's why isn't it, you want to ruin my life!" he said practically screaming it at her. 'How could he think I would do that to him, or that that's how I feel.' Inuyasha struck her across the face, Kagome dropped the herbs she was holding and cradled her face. Tears ran down her checks at both the physical and emotional pain. "Inuyasha..." she said silently.
*~~`*`~~* "No don't touch her! "Yelled the very angry real Inuyasha. Kikyo laughed evilly at his pain and anger, "he's only getting started and the best thing is she and everyone else will think that it is you who killed her". "No..." Inuyasha breathed.
`*` 'How can he be doing this' Kagome thought as her heart broke once again as pure pain spread within her body. She started trembling as she looked at him. She looked straight into his eyes the ones that held so much depth and emotion. ' Wait a sec...they're the wrong color, wrong even for demon form' "your not him" she spoke softly. "What?" the imposter asked. The Inuyasha that she saw before her had raging blue eyes, but she new that Inuyasha's were amber they sparkled so brightly they almost appeared gold. " You're...you're not Inuyasha...Inuyasha would never speak or act like this to me. I care for him to much, I trust him!" Kagome yelled out to the creature in front of her.
**~** 'She...she cares for me, Kagome...' Inuyasha thought to himself. "Impossible how could she see through my illusion I disguised him perfectly "Kikyo growled. "Well no matter he will still destroy her even if he doesn't look like you.... that girl will die, I swear it."
)~~*~~(
"So you know I'm not your precious one. Fine then I can release my true form and get out of this ugly skin." The demon took off his Inuyasha disguise to revel that he was some kind of wolf demon. He looked somewhat like koga but older and scared. Kagome started to run; running faster than she thought her legs could ever carry her. But the wolf being a demon caught her like it was nothing. Thinking quickly Kagome noticed a broken arrow lying on the ground. She bent down quickly picked it up and concealed it behind a fold of her skirt. The demon stretched out an arm and grasped her by the throat. Kagome gasped in pain, she could feel her throat tightening under his grasp. She struggled to breath but was to weak. With the few ounces of strength she had left she stabbed the demon right in his heart. He cried out in pain, Kagome didn't realize but with her growing powers the arrow had become sacred. The demon howled out in pain one last time before bursting and becoming nothing more than dust. 'What could be happening to Inuyasha..."? Kagome thought before heading back to where the clearing was. ' Inuyasha whatever's happening to you I will save you'.
***~~*~~*** "Damn she saw through it all and managed to kill him!" Kikyo swore. "I guess ill have to kill you since that pesky girl won't seem to die" Taking aim again Kikyo released the arrow. 'Well this is it... Kagome I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to cause you so much pain. Maybe me not being around is best, you can move on with out me as a burden.' Inuyasha thought to him self. "I'm sorry..." Inuyasha said closing his eyes at what he thought were his last words. Inuyasha felt warmth all over him, he opened his eyes. It was Kagome, and to his horror she had the arrow Kikyo had shot sticking out of her shoulder. "Well, it seems she can die." Kikyo said coolly. "We can now be together Inuyasha, I'll let you have time with her before she dies completely. Come to me when your journey and revenge is over." With that Kikyo turned and walked away with a slight smile on her face. "No... Kagome!" Inuyasha said panicking at the blood spilling from her wound. " Inu...Inuyasha... I'm so happy... you're... you're...ok" Kagome managed to say before collapsing I his now free arms. Inuyasha was in complete shock, Kagome was bleeding heavily. Thick dark blood was oozing from her wound, staining her shirt and pail skin. He started to run holding Kagome close to him, running as fast as he could to give her the help she needed. 'Kaede she will be able to help' Inuyasha thought. "Hold on Kagome were almost there," Inuyasha said softly to her. He was lucky that they had left only that morning, and that he could get her help so that she wouldn't die. He ripped through the forest at top speed finally reaching the border of the village, and continued on to Kaede's. Kaede was instantly woken when Inuyasha came through the door. "She's been shot can you save her, please, please tell me you can, I need her..." He said out of breath. "Alright, alrigt, don't get mushy on me put her down over there." Kaede said in response. Inuyasha obeyed and placed Kagome by the fire pit. "Start a fire" Kaede instructed. Gently but quickly she pulled out the arrow and placed a thick folded cloth on the wound applying pressure to stop the bleeding. "Hold this Inuyasha I need to get herbs". Inuyasha placed his fingers on the patch next to Kaede's. Kaede let go and left the hut as quick as she could to get the herbs. Inuyasha looked on Kagome's face, she was sweating. He fallowed the curve of her neck to the wound its self.
Inuyasha's attention was slowly drawn away from Kagome as he tried to isolate the sent. "What is it?" she asked, now worried at his actions. "I...I smell blood".
