A/N: Okies, me's finally trying (trying being the key word here) to sort
things out so that I can write. I've started to notice a pattern in the
reviews: "Make him choose Kagome, die Kikyou" "Death to Kikyou" "He had
better choose Kagome or I'll send someone back in time to kick his butt" "I
hope he chooses Kagome! Kikyou needs to stay in hell where she belongs" "If
Inuyasha chooses Kikyou then he's a world class heel that DESERVES to
die(This one also says something about Kouga ripping out his heart, Sango
beating him with her boomerang, and Miroku sucking him up into the rip, I
like this reviewer!)" Yadda, yadda, yadda.
Inuyasha: Hey! This is none of their damn business! You never said that
people were actually reading this. And untie me dammit!
A: But, if I did then my reviewers might hurt me, then where'd I be?
Inuyasha: Who cares?
Kouga: Why'd you tie me up? I'm not even in this fic!
A: So? I love you anyways! *Huggles till he turns blue*
Inuyasha: *Laughs*
Kouga: Can't.breath.help.me.
Disclaimer: *Growls at the lawyers from a cage* *Glares at the men in the white coats* Vgluih! Mjkuy! *Giant hands come up and grab the lawyers, dragging them down into the fire, awaiting Kikyou* *Laughs manically* They're mine! MINE I TELL YOU! MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE! *Breaks the cage open and starts huggling Kouga again*
Kouga: *Gasp* Hel-*Passes out*
A: 0.o*Pokes him* Uh-oh..uh..hehe*Sees Sesshomaru* Mine! *Huggles his one- armed-bishie-self* So pwitty!
Inuyasha: *Laughing his head off*
Fluffy: Ack.damn.you*Changes colors rapidly*

`~`~`~` Chapter six: Alone
Kagome awoke complete darkness; being blind scared her. She tried to scrunch up, but every muscle from head to toe ached. All she could do was just lay there on her back. It felt like she was lying on the forest floor, but she couldn't see, or sense anything for that matter. Not even her shards.
'The shards!' she thought hurriedly, trying to reach out as far as possible with her powers, but she couldn't sense anything. Nothing, she was alone and vulnerable. She kept her eyes shut and continued to try find any source of life around her, but everything seemed dead.
Alone.
She was alone.

Shippou arose from where he had landed. Something had possessed Inuyasha and he had sent poor Shippou hurtling through the forest! The little kitsune rubbed his head and back-side, massaging his aching tail sadly. He knew it wasn't Inuyasha's fault, for he understood more than the group gave him credit for. A few tears had stained his face, but he wiped them away.
'I'm the only one left who can save Kagome now! Damn Inuyasha, he had better make the right decision on his part.'
He shivered as he remembered Kikyou's cold laugh. And those horrid black eyes..
He finally glanced around, seeing his surroundings. He was much further than he should have been from Inuyasha. In fact, he couldn't smell the hanyou at all. What the hell was going on? His senses seemed dulled; he couldn't smell or hear anything near him. Kagome's scent was long lost; he couldn't even find his way back to camp. This wasn't even Inuyasha's forest.
'Where am I? Kagome!' tears began to streak his face once more. He was alone and he knew he couldn't help Kagome.
~*~
Sango had tripped over a root and hit her head on a rock. Or at least she thought. They had been running when something caught her foot, then she blacked out. Blood was pouring from above her right eye, which is why she decided she had hit a rock, but there weren't any anywhere near. This was the thick part of the forest and too overrun with undergrowth and trees to have any rocks. But she didn't pay attention to that, mainly because she didn't want to.
Hiraikotsu (E/N for those of you who are scratching your heads going, huh? It's the boomerang bone) was missing. She searched frantically through the shrubs but the no avail. Then she noticed that she was alone.
Miroku was gone.
'Maybe he ran ahead?' she thought, trying to calm herself. But she knew that the monk would've never left her. Trying to get up, she found that her legs were immobile. All she could do was drag herself over to a tree and prop herself up, rocking back and forth, all senses alert. But she was alone.
~*~
Miroku had rolled down a very rocky slope when his right arm suddenly flared with pain, and he blacked out. It was still too painful to move. When he tried to sit up, the pain shot through his body as if his very movements had sprung some sort of booby trap. He finally gave up and fell helplessly to the ground.
'Sango-sama.' His eyes slowly fluttered shut and he could feel the air rip opening. 'No, not now.not now that I have Sango-sama! No! I can't let her be alone! She doesn't deserve that pain...'
~*~
Inuyasha couldn't believe what he had done. He had just thrown the small cub through the forest; his only protection from the monster before him and his only link to reality. But it was too late.
Somehow, he knew by not choosing Kagome right away, that they were all in danger..
Then something hit him. Shippou had disappeared! Not just into the shadows, but from his scent too. He tried to turn to chase after him, but he found himself literally rooted down by some kind of vine that had wrapped itself around his legs. He slashed at them, and struggled, but they wouldn't break.
"You're not going to leave me, are you Inuyasha?" The cold voice sneered. He wished that it wasn't Kikyou. He wished that it was Naraku in disguise, but he knew that it wasn't. That's what scared him.
He was alone with the monster.
Alone.
