The Miko Switch
Chapter III
Disclaimer: No, Inuyasha doesn't belong to me! I swear!!!!!
Summary: Kagome and Kikyou switch bodies. To switch back, they must meet at the tree where Kikyou pinned Inuyasha 50 years ago after one month. But what if Kikyou does not want to switch back?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I bet you're all wondering what Kikyou's planning. I will reveal it in the next chappie. And I'm so sorry for making Kagome-chan cry! I mean, I'm not a big fan of hers, but I still care *sob* about her. And for the romance/humor mix-up, I'm sorry too. It was supposed to be romance/general. I'll fix it up soon!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I stared as Inuyasha as he walked away, Kikyou clinging to Inuyasha. My eyes threatened to well up, but I fought them until Kikyou's aura faded away. My tears spilled to the ground.
"INUYASHA!" I cried, my tears coming down in buckets. "How could you do this to me!?" As the insects filled me up, I just cried and cried. When I had enough strength, I stood up.
So this was how Kikyou felt. Being ignored and treated like dirt. I realized how I resented her and how I wanted Inuyasha for myself. Kikyou only had Inuyasha and her sister and her village as support, and they disappeared, one by one, because I took them away. I became sort of the new Kikyou, her replacement, and soon people in the village looked and treated me as highly as her. No wonder she became so bitter. And I even wanted Inuyasha! I couldn't believe I was so selfish.
I felt another aura that became familiar for the past few days. "Sesshomaru," I said slowly, wiping my tears.
"Kagome," Sesshomaru whispered, and reappeared next to me. Rin and Jaken ran after him. "Though you are a ningen, and I detest ningens, I do have feelings." He looked at me, and for the first time I saw pity in his eyes. Usually I just saw hatred or anger in his eyes. It was rather a shock to see pitying eyes after being treated like dirt because of being Kikyou. "That must have been rather hurting." Rin helped me up, but I paid no attention.
I turned to look at him, shocked. "You saw the entire incident?" I whispered, lip trembling. "How could you!?" I began to feel angry. "Were you spying?"
"I was just seeing it through my crystal ball," Sesshomaru said defensively. "Or I should say, Rin was seeing through the crystal ball. Rin then called me, telling something about how she felt sorry for you."
My eyes began welling up again, and Rin handed me a hanky. I couldn't help feel a bit better, but when I kept seeing Inuyasha's angry face in mind, I felt more and more bitter, until I couldn't hold it anymore.
The last I remembered was collapsing on the ground due to shock.
KIKYOU
I looked at Inuyasha. He looked very serious. And sad.
"Are you feeling guilty?" I asked him softly, smoothing out the wrinkles of Kagome's skirt. "Are you, Inuyasha?"
He turned to look at me. He smiled. "Iie. I just feel sorry for Kikyou. After all, I do love her."
I fought the urge to smile. The others might suspect something if I smiled so sinisterly. Before my plan had been different. Have me in Kagome's body give her soul to Kikyou's body, and return to my original body. Then get Inuyasha. But Inuyasha obviously wanted the wench to live. So I changed my plan. And it was better and more fitting, and soon becoming reality. And one more thing, that Inuyasha obviously loved the wench, so if I slowly made those feelings grow, he would love Kagome and forget me. And his little friends would be happy.
My plan was in action, and soon it will make Inuyasha mine. "So you do love her," I said, pretending to be sad. "So I suppose I should give her my soul?"
"Kagome-sama!" Miroku said. "Now stop thinking like that."
"Inuyasha, will you stop about Kikyou?" Shippou snapped. At that, Inuyasha started chasing Shippou, who immediately hid behind me. I burst out laughing. It had been so long that I laughed. For real. It felt good to be able to laugh again.
"Why are you laughing, Kagome?" Sango asked curiously. "You know Inuyasha and Shippou always do that."
"I guess I needed a pain reliever after the pain Kikyou gave me," I admitted. Or should I say, the pain Kagome gave to me. All those bitter months being hated by my lover and sister and village, being brought away from them, being unable to even speak to them! The pain Kagome gave me was worse than Naraku's. "It just hurt me after saying I should go to the world of the dead. I mean, am I dead? Maybe to her eyes, probably."
"Stop that, Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled. "Stop thinking that you're lower than Kikyou! Please."
"I'm sorry, Inuyasha," I muttered softly. "But you do prefer her than me. Isn't that proof I'm lower than her?"
Sango glared at Inuyasha. "Most probably in Inuyasha eyes."
Inuyasha returned her glare. "SHUT UP, SANGO!" He screeched.
"Fine, fine," Sango said. "Just quit the two-timing."
Inuyasha blushed. I smiled. I felt I actually belonged, for the first time in many months. The only person who accepted me was Sesshomaru. When I became resurrected, I wished I just remained dead, nothing but something kept alive in memories. If I was left dead, I wouldn't be kept being thought of a soulless body trying to get revenge. The days I spent crying, wanting to kill myself. But I never could. The thought that it was Inuyasha who I blamed that killed me left me forever guilty. I wanted to return to our carefree days, just us. But Naraku ruined everything. I wanted to get revenge on him. Then maybe I would die.
Then Kagome came along. She took Inuyasha, my village, my people. She even had the nerve to consider herself as me! She was another reason that made me want to kill her.
Inuyasha, I vowed, if you ever choose that wench over me, I will kill myself.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
This is really serious now, I know. I know, maybe not everyone would like the way this is going, but don't worry, Inu/Kag might survive!
