INUYASHA'S FATE AND KAGOME'S
DILEMMA
CHAPTER TWO
Just as Naraku left, Miroku, Sango and Shippou arrived at the scene were they watched everything happen faster then a blink of an eye. "I knew it… we are too late." Miroku thought to himself. "KAGOME!" Sango shouted as she is watching her best friend being stolen by Naraku. She reached for her boomerang and took aim and through it at Naraku. The boomerang went flying towards him just as it was about to hit him Naraku vanished and the boomerang hit empty space.
Shippou looked around for any sign of Kagome or Inuyasha. As Shippou looked to his left his eye's widened in fear as he saw Inuyasha lying on the ground lifeless. "Sango, Miroku! It looks like Inuyasha has been hurt badly!" Shippou shouted as he scurried over to Inuyasha who is lying on the ground his eyes half opened. Inuyasha's golden colored eyes are now a misty swirling pool of tears trying not to break free. His silver snowy white colored hair is a tousled mess and spread about him. His red haori is tattered and torn in some places yet it could be fixed with a little sewing.
Sango and Miroku both hurried over to Inuyasha's side. "Oh my…" Miroku said as he looked at his fallen comrade. "Naraku really had done it this time Inuyasha is going to be furious when he awakes and finds Kagome gone." Sango said in a soft voice. Shippou nodded in agreement. "QUICK let's get INUYAHSA back to Kaede's hut before something happens to him." Miroku said as he went around and grabbed Inuyasha's arms and hoisted him onto his back. Then Miroku walked back to Kirara and hoisted Inuasha and himself on Kirara's back and climbed on.
Shippou climbed on next fallowed by Sango. Only as she started to hoist herself up something yellow had caught her eye. She turned her head and saw Kagome's yellow pack lying on the ground. Sango then started walking towards the pack. "Sango what are you doing! We have to get Inuasha back to Kaede's!" Miroku said. "Hold on Miroku Kagome left her pack and I'm sure she didn't do it on purpose Sango said as she picked up the yellow pack and swung it over her shoulders as she had seen Kagome do before, and headed towards Kirara, and climbed on her back.
"Is Inuyasha breathing?" Sango asked in a frightened voice. "Hai he is but his breathing is coming out in slow gasps so we need to hurry back to Kaede's hut so she can heal him." Miroku said in a clam yet scared voice for he wanted his friend Inuyasha to stay alive as well as for Kagome's sake.
After a while of silence Sango decided to break it.
"Miroku how will we rescue Kagome? I mean we don't even know where Naraku's castle is. It could be under our noses and not even realize it." Sango said as she looked over her right shoulder from the direction they came from. "I'm not sure maybe Kaede knows." He said as they arrived at Kaede's hut. Miroku and Sango slid off Kirara's back and then carefully and cautiously helped Inuyasha down so that they wouldn't make his injuries worse.
"Kaede we need you're help INUYASHA has been hurt badly." Miroku said. Kaede quickly rushed over to them and helped Miroku carry Inuyasha into her hut. Once they got him inside Kaede instructed Sango to close the door.
"Now tell me exactly what happened to him." Kaede said as she tended to Inuyasha's wounds. Miroku nodded and told Kaede what happened when they arrived. Once Miroku was done telling Kaede was shocked. "Well have to ask Inuyasha what happened to him when he wakes." Kaede said while still making some more herbs to help heal Inuyasha's wounds.
::+::+:: KAGOME::+::+::
Kagome's slowly coming back to her scenes as she awakens with a pounding headache and blurry vision. "Uh my head were am I?" Kagome said out loud, while she held her head in her hands. Just then she heard a door open and lifted her head and squinted her eyes as a light came flooding into the dark emotionless room.
As the door opened and hit the wall she started hearing footsteps coming towards her. When her eye's adjusted to the light she looked right into the eyes of the person who kidnapped her. Kagome quickly stood up for she did not want to be venerable to her attacker, and got into a fighting stance. As she did that the demon let out an evil laugh. "Ah so the lovely Miko has awakened." A voice that sounded all too familiar to Kagome's ears.
"Naraku….." Kagome whispered softly hoping that the demon wouldn't hear her. Only the demon had the hearing of a hanyu. "That would be correct and you're name would be?" Naraku said as he grabbed the girls chin and held her face just inches away from his and her body dangling off of the ground by a couple inches. "That is none of you're business." Kagome said as a smirk appeared on her pink lips.
"Ah but my dear miko this is where you are wrong. It is my business I must know the name of the person who is the reincarnation of the beautiful Kikyo." Naraku said. "ALSO the holder of the SHIKON NO TAMA, the one JEWEL I NEED TO HAVE MY DESIRE COME TRUE." Naraku finished as he tightened his grip on Kagome's chin.
"You'll never get the SHIKON NO TAMA I would rather see you die then get the jewel and Inuyasha is the one who will kill you." Kagome said as her eyes hardened and gleamed with a deadly glare towards Naraku. Naraku's eyes started to glow red with furry as the miko threatened him with those words, and through her back to the ground a couple feet away from him.
"You will corporate with me MIKO or you will have a very painful death and INUYASHA will watch you die in my hands…." With that Naraku stormed out of the dungeon cell as he slammed the cell door shut leaving behind a miko who has little crystal tears threatening to fall from a pair of chocolate brown colored eyes. Only Kagome refuses to let Naraku get the satisfactory of knowing that he had made her cry. So she held the tears back and replaced it with anger and hatred towards Naraku.
BACK AT Kaede's Village
::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::
Back in side Kaede's hut we are about to see. No witness a very intense situation. Luckily Inuyasha had been wearing his Fire-Rat-Hakama so his injuries aren't as bad as one would imagine. As for the human eye Inuyasha's injuries look life threatening, but to a youkai's eye they are not since youkai's can be healed in less then a week or so. Now we are going to enter the spirit world that is beyond the living, and see what path awaits Inuyasha Life or Death?
::+::+::Spirit World / dream world::+::+::
A wave of amber golden eyes shot open all most instantly only to be found in an area all alone with not a soul around him. The only thing that was in the spacious area is a sliver swirling mist that's floating around him. The golden eyes scanned the area only to see that he is the only living being in the mist. "Where am I?" Inuyasha though to himself as he tired to look to see what is beyond the swirling mist. Then all of a sudden a figure appeared that looked just like Sango. "Prepare to die INUYASHA!" Sango shouted as she was dressed in her fighting out fit and aiming her boomerang at Inuyasha.
"Wha…..." Inuyasha though just as he leapt into the air too dodge the boomerang. "Sango what in the seven hells are you doing!" Inuyasha shouted as he landed behind her. Just then Sango disappeared into the swirling mist and another figure appeared this time it is Kagome….
"INUYASHA!" Kagome shouted through the mist. "How could you leave me in Naraku's evil clutches? I thought you loved me." Kagome said in sobs. Then she to disappeared, into the depths of the silver mist that seems to be swallowing every thing Inuyasha loves and cherishes. "Why are my friends attacking me and how come Kagome thinks that I don't love her?" Inuyasha though as he scanned to mist to see what else would pop out.
YOU SEE? YOU WILL ALLWAYS BE ALONE INUYASHA NO ONE COULD EVER LIKE A HANYU. A mysterious voice echoed through out the mist. Then Miroku, and shippou appeared along with Sango, and Kagome. "YOU BETRAYED us INUAYSAH!" They all shouted. Then the group vanished beyond the mist.
Kaede's hut
::+::+::+::+::+::
Kaede is tending to Inuyasha's wounds and watching closely over him for he seems to have started cringing and moving in his sleep. "Sango come here." Kaede called to her as Sango entered the hut. "Yes Kaede?" I want you to try and talk to Inuyasha he seems to be in a dream state that causes people to choose between life and death.
I want you to tell him that you are here for him as well as Miroku, Kagome, and Shippou. "Kaede said. "Hai Kaede-sama anything for a friend and Inuyasha is a great friend indeed." Sango said as she sat down on the other side of Inuyasha.
::+::+:: Back in the Spirit / Dream world ::+::+::
Then another voice could be heard. "Inuyasha it's me Sango please come back to us we need you and Kagome needs you the most. You can't leave us Inuyasha you're our leader and our friend." Then the voice sounded like it was drifting back into the mist.
Inuyasha smiled and started walking to the world of light instead of the world of darkness. He smiled as he knew that his friends cared for him. Then in a blinding flash of light every thing vanished.
::+::+:::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::+::
Just then Kaede noticed a slight stir coming from Iuyasha. "Ah Sango the things you told Inuyasha you speak the truth we can not live with out him." Kaede smiled up at Sango then went back to tending to Inuyasha.
Hours seem to pass by slowly. It is now dusk and Sango is outside by a fire cooking dinner for her group of friends.
The sun has now started to set and the sky is an aurora of colors. Miroku slipped inside the hut while Kaede was gathering herbs in the garden a few minutes a way from the village. As he enters he hears a noise coming from his companion and friend.
"Ah Inuyasha you had us terribly worried there." Miroku said as he is now besides his friend. Inuyasha opened his eyes and quickly sat up. Only he shouldn't have done that for his body ached all over from the wounds.
"Where's Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. "WOW hold it Inuyasha you still need to re gain you're strength." Miroku said hoping to stall time. For he did not want to tell Inuasha happened. "Miroku …." Inuyasha said in a not so patient voice. Sigh… Naraku stole her.
"WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Inuyasha shouted.
::+::+::+:: Outside the hut::+::+::+::
Sango and the villagers looked towards the cabin. "I take it Inuyasha is a wake.'' Shippou said with a smile. Sango nodded and went back to her cooking. Once she was finished she to walked, inside the hut along with Shippou behind her. Hoping that Inuyasha wasn't in to bad of mood after what Miroku had told him.
