Kisseki no Kokoro

Scroll 11: The Answer is Simple

Sango searched the small cell for anything. "There has to be a weakness!" Sango yelled getting frustrated.

"Sango," Kagome said. "Look, there."

"Where?"

"There, you see it?" Kagome asked.

"Hai, I'll get it." Sango said crawling to the front of the cell.

Dead slaves started walking toward the girl. Sango quickly blocked all thoughts and Kagome held them off with a little of her miko strength.

Kurama looked at the girls, he was once again back-to-back with Hiei. He watched them taking in every detail he possibly could, then it hit him.

"Hiei!" Kurama yelled.

But Hiei had already seen it. Hiei ran forwards as Kurama backed him with rose whip. Kuwabara stood there as the dust settled and Hiei and Kurama came out victorious. Kuwabara was still flabbergasted.

"What-What the hell happened? How'd you do it?" Kuwabara asked.

"The answer was simple.. Reverse the image." Kurama said.

"Reverse the-Hey! That makes no sense!" Kuwabara yelled at Hiei and Kurama.

"Of course, you are only a simple minded human." Hiei said coldly.

Kouga snickered as the group walked past a dumbstruck Kuwabara further into the hallway.

'Naraku, ka?" Sesshomaru thought, 'What is he planning this time?"

"Sesshomaru-sama! Sesshomaru-sama! Your humble servant comes!" Jaken yelled.

"Rin, stay here with Jaken." Sesshomaru said.

"Hai, hai!" Rin said obediently.

"Sesshomaru-sama?" Jaken asked, "Surely you don't wish to leave this Jaken here with that human!"

Sesshomaru said nothing but he walked into the deep forest, following the scent of Naraku.

As he walked on he noticed a small miasma lingering in the air. He came across a castle, in which he mercilessly killed the few guards and walking into the main building. What he came upon startled him. There against the two far walls were women, lined against the wall. Ningen and youkai alike. He saw Naraku's two minions at his side, Kagura and Kanna. Kagura was scowling behind Naraku's back, and Kanna seemed to be more lifeless than ever. Then he spotted Kikyo nearby. She sat on Naraku's right side, as if she were to marry him.

"Sesshomaru." Naraku said, "How very nice to see you here."

Sesshomaru's cold stare threatened to pierce Naraku. "What are they doing here?"

"Sesshomaru, surely you know of the coming of age when a youkai lord must get married." Naraku smirked.

Sesshomaru didn't respond, sure he knew, but his mate was dead, she was killed fifty years ago.
