The Miko Switch

Chapter XIII

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? KIK/SESS KAG/INU

INUYASHA

I was at the well. Where I first met Kagome. I was thinking deeply about what happened ever since she arrived. And since Kikyou revived. I was thinking through it all, and a realization hit me: I love Kagome.

The realization made me feel sort of ashamed of how I acted. After all, I knew I didn't love Kikyou anymore, but the way I sounded, it must have been. I just felt angry at Kagome. I had known Kikyou half my life, and she was different at the way they saw her.

"I should go back…" I muttered, and made my way back to the village.

"Come back here, you lowlife," said a familiar voice. A too familiar voice. I spun around, my hand on the Tetsusaiga. Then he appeared. My brother. He smirked at me, and jumped down from the tree.

"What are you doing here, Sesshomaru?" I asked in surprise. Now what did he want?

"I just want to ask what you said to Kikyou," he said as casually as someone can when he's ready to slice a sword through your throat.

"Hmph. Why don't you ask her?" I said viciously, drawing my sword. "And is that all you came for here?"

"Answer my question, Inuyasha, or your friends will perish," he growled.

"I thought Kikyou said she wouldn't kill them!" I said, horrified at the thought of Kikyou's betrayal.

"Did she, now?" Sesshomaru looked somewhat thoughtful. "Is that what you talked about, dear half-brother?"

I glared at him.

"Don't try me," Sesshomaru said in a low, threatening voice. "I'm not a servant of Kikyou. If I wished to kill those two, Kikyou will not be able to stop me."

"How dare you!" I cursed under my breath, but answered. "The switch. We talked about it. Kagome and Kikyou will switch back next week. However, I got into a fight with Kagome since Kikyou asked for a meeting with her two days from now."

"Kagome refused?" Sesshomaru looked confused. Then his eyes lit up. "I'll convince Kagome, Inuyasha."

"What!?"

"I won't hurt her," He said, rolling his eyes. "I'm just going to persuade her to talk to Kikyou."

I stared at him suspiciously. "Why are you doing this?"

"I don't have any other immediate plans. But don't follow me. If you do, I shall slice Kagome before you can scream." And with that, he disappeared.

I sighed. "What should I do?" I asked myself.

SESSHOMARU

I fled to Kikyou's village with glee. So there wasn't anything going on with Kikyou and Inuyasha then! I was really happy, and also that they were switching back.

I was practically dancing all the way to the village. Then I felt Kikyou's body. I flew to an abandoned clearing that was rather far from the village and saw Kagome sitting on a small stone, obviously lost in thought. I smiled to myself, and reappeared in front of her.

"AAAHHHH-" Kagome's screams were silenced by my mouth.

"I have to talk to you," I told her softly, and released my grip on her mouth.

"What?" Kagome looked at me, confused. "What for?"

"I spoke to Inuyasha today," I said, expecting to see recognition in her eyes.

However, she still looked confused. "Huh?"

I sighed. I wonder how this girl could have been Kikyou's reincarnation. "He told me you had a fight."

Kagome's eyes darkened, and they went to the ground. "I was just mad at him. I guess it was my fault too, I knew how much he cared for Kikyou before."

"He told me that Kikyou asked for the two of you to meet two days from now," I said slowly. "So what are you going to do?"

Kagome pursed her lips. "I don't know. I mean, what if Kikyou tries something on me?"

"She won't kill Sango or Miroku, I promise," I said. "You should see them now, they have a sort of distant relationship with her. She's been very friendly, too. Why don't you meet her? Give her a chance?"

Kagome stared at me and smiled slowly. It was almost strange to see Kikyou's body smiling in a way that wasn't sort of evil. "Okay, I will. Thanks, Sesshomaru."

I smiled back at her. "It will make Kikyou very happy to be friends with you. She wants you to understand. That's why she took Sango and Miroku. She wanted them to understand her."

Kagome's eyes softened. "I want to understand her too. I guess I just wasn't trying hard enough. I'll see you two days from now then."

"How will you see me?"

"Aren't you staying with Kikyou?" She shrugged. "Then I guess I would see you too."

I laughed. "I think Kikyou wouldn't like both of us to be there. I think we should leave you two alone for now."

Kagome laughed too. "Yeah, we don't need you two half-brothers breathing down on our every breath."

I smiled, and flew away, back to Kikyou.
