Chapter 10: Kagura's Wind
"Faster Kirara, we need to get there." Miroku said through gritted teeth. The cat growled in response as they neared the burnt village. When they reached Noboru's hut, Miroku jumped off Kirara and entered the hut, apprehensively.
"Sango!" He said running towards the bound and gagged girl. As he embraced her, she raised her hand and struck him in the back with her knife. (The one in her arm or hand or wherever it is…)
"Sango…it's me Miroku!"
"Houshi-sama…I…is it really you?" She replied, realizing that she had just stabbed one of her friends. "Hurry, there's a jewel shard in my arm, take it out before he takes control again…I don't want to hurt you again…" Sango screamed with tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Ok, just hold on one minute while I remove it." Miroku said calmly as he grabbed her arm and removed the shard. He then untied Sango and hugged her for a brief second. They ran out of the hut, but before they reached Kirara, a woman with a paper fan jumped down from a tree and landed in front of them
"Kagura…Move!" Miroku growled, his arms protectively around Sango. Kagura laughed.
"And why would I do that when I'm sent to kill you?
Meanwhile
Kagome flew backwards into the ground, her arrows scattered around her.
"Kagome!" Inu Yasha ran to her making him an easy target for the enemy behind him. Naraku raised his tree like arms and dove for Inu Yasha.
"Inu Yasha, behind you!" Kagome said weakly, Inu Yasha turned at the last moment and was hit in the chest. (Again x.x;)
"INU YASHA!" Kagome screamed, running towards him. His haori was stained even redder as his blood flew from his gash.
"Inu Yasha, wake up…please." Kagome cried. Her tears hitting his face.
"Damnit Kagome…do you ever stop crying?!" Inu Yasha said weakly as he used his sword to prop himself up. Naraku yawned, apparently bored with the two. Kagome grabbed Inu Yasha's arm and started to push him down.
"Inu Yasha, you're hurt! What if you.." Kagome trailed off looking into his amber eyes.
"I don't care about these stupid wounds. I will never forgive him for killing Kikyo!" Inu Yasha picked up his sword and ran at Naraku.
"Kikyo…of course…"Kagome whispered, her eyes slowly tearing.
'I can end this right now. I can seal up the well and never return. But then what…' Kagome thought. 'I'll live knowing Inu Yasha and Kikyo…no. I can't let that happen. No matter what.' Kagome brushed away the tears.
"Is that what this is about?" Kagome asked with fire blazing in her eyes.
"Of course, what else would it be about?" Inu Yasha replied after he slashed out at Naraku.
"Fine then, if you care more about her than you do about me and yourself, then I'm leaving!" Kagome said very calmly…almost too calmly.
"Wa-wait Kagome! Come back!" Inu Yasha screamed.
"Stupid fool, you should care less about her, and more about yourself." Naraku said plainly. As he struck Inu Yasha in the chest again. Inu Yasha lay, not moving.
"Now it's time to get that girl he is so worried about." said Naraku coldly. He darted for Kagome as she walked to Kaede's hut, not facing the battle. He was so close when all of a sudden…
"KA-GO-ME!" Inu Yasha screamed as he dove between the striking Naraku and Kagome turning around. Then, in a flash, Naraku and Noboru were gone, and Inu Yasha lay unmoving.
"Inu Yasha! No…" Kagome yelled with tears rolling down her face. She picked up Inu Yasha's head and put it on her lap as her tears landed on his face.
"Wake up Inu Yasha, please wake up now…I'm so sorry. It's all my fault." Kagome said whimpering as Inu Yasha's eyes slowly opened.
"No, Kagome…it's not your fault, it's mine, I should be sorry for thinking of Kikyo. When the only person I want to think about is…" Inu Yasha said, struggling as his eyes slowly closed again.
