Disclaimer: It's not mine. I wish it was. Why Sesshie? Why?

Sesshomaru: Are you my stalker or something?

Reaka: I could be...It can all be arranged.

Sesshomaru: (moving away as fast as possible) I'm going away now.

Reaka: (follows) Why?

Sesshomaru: Shouldn't you be more concerned about the fans that are reading this that are getting pissed off that you're not starting the story already?

Reaka: Fine! (pouts) Ruin my fun, why don't you? All right, it's back in Kagome's point of view, so her thoughts get the slashes back. Happy?

Pissed off fans: Yes! Start the damn thing already!

Chapter 7 – Kikyo's Love

The arrow flew at Inuyasha, but he wasn't moving. He stood there, staring at it.

"SIT BOY!"

Before I realized it, those words were out of my mouth. Inuyasha was on the ground, and the arrow narrowly missed me. I staggered back and fell backwards in a sitting position.

"Very clever Kagome." Kikyo said as she walked to me. She raised her hand as if to slap me.

"Don't you touch her." Inuyasha growled. His hand grabbed her wrist.

"Did she harm you, Kagome?"

I shook my head, but I couldn't get up. It was as if some force was keeping me down on the ground.

/What's going on? I can't move!/

"So you do care about her more than you care about me." Kikyo said. " Well, I guess killing you wouldn't be such a bad thing after all."

Without warning, she drew a small dagger and stabbed at Inuyasha. There was a cut right across his right cheek. The blood trickled down slowly. He looked at Kikyo and let go of her wrist. She laughed at his shocked expression.

"What's the matter, Inuyasha?" Kikyo asked. "Can't you fight me? Why won't you hurt me?"

She laughed as she watched Inuyasha stand there, staring.

/Snap out of it, Inuyasha! It's too late! She's evil now! She doesn't love you anymore! Can't you let her go?/

Laughing, Kikyo attacked him savagely. The dagger cut across every single inch of his body, and yet, he never once fought back or defended himself. He just let her do it.

/Why are you letting her do this to you? Fight her, Inuyasha! Don't suffer anymore because of her! Don't do it!/

Kilala was tired of seeing it too, and she attacked Kikyo.

"Stay back Kilala!" Inuyasha called.

Kilala stopped and looked back at him, confused. But she backed away anyway. Kikyo stood up again, nursing her arm. Blood stained her clothes. She still had that sadistic smile on her face. She brandished the dagger again.

"Now, Inuyasha." Kikyo said. "You will finally come with me to hell. Just as you should've done fifty years ago."

/I can move again. Hang on, Inuyasha! I won't let you die for something you didn't even do!/

She raised the dagger high above her head, then brought it down. I felt the blade rip my skin as I jumped in front of it. My blood flew to Kikyo's face. She looked shocked that I went in front of her.

"You were supposed to live until Naraku dealt with you." She whispered. She started to back away from us, but Inuyasha was in her way.

"Inuyasha." Kikyo said.

"I love you Kikyo," he replied, "and I'm sorry. I won't be going to hell with you this time."

He raised his hand, and he used his Iron Reaver Soul Stealer. Kikyo's head flew three feet from her body. The souls emerged from her body, then it disintegrated into earth and bone. Kikyo's head turned into a skull.

/He killed her...he killed her cause I was hurt./

I fell to my knees, but I never hit the ground. Strong arms caught me, but they weren't Inuyasha's. They were the arms of Naraku.

OOOOOOHHHH!!! Now you're mad! I left another cliffy! I have a bad habit of doing that, don't I? Oh well. Please read and review! I might not leave another cliffy if you do...

Miroku: Yeah...if.

Reaka: Shut up!

Kikyo: You killed me? You killed me again?

Kikyo haters: There she is! Let's get rid of her! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Kikyo: Now I know how Naraku feels! HELP!!!!!

Reaka: Please read and review. Until next time!
