Inutaishou's Gift By: OtakuSailorV
Chapter 4: The Gate Has Opened
"Die, human."
Sesshoumaru's arm moved in an arc toward her. Kagome's eyes went wide.
The last thing she remembered doing was covering her face with her clasped palm and her open hand.
She felt one claw touched her skin, but then. . .
Crack!
There was a noise so loud, Kagome was sure she was deaf.
Light burst forth right after, flooding them all, and blocking out the senses of even the noble taiyoukai.
"Ahhhh!!!!" There was a yell, from whom, there was no certainty, all that was known was the roaring as the light drained them of senses, and the loud, reverberating cracks that were felt, more than heard.
Creeeennnnnnnn. . .
The light suddenly thinned out, and swallowed them, leaving only a patch of grass where they had stood moments before.
Kagome felt her mind ease back into awareness. She felt light as air, her hair was flowing out, rushing back from the force that was making her glide.
She suddenly gasped, remembering what had happened, and stood.
She was riding the skeleton of some brown-winged beast. Only. . .the wings were still attached, and the feathers looked like they had always grown on the skeletal beast. She gasped and sat back down, unaware that she still held the black orb in her hand.
She looked around at her surroundings.
Lo, there, deep among the spire-like rocks, was Inutaishou's Grave. Kagome opened her mouth in wonder.
'Wow. . .I wonder if Inuyasha. . .Oh! Inuyasha!'
She looked back around, but there was no sign of anyone.
Boldly, she stood, and looked over the immense wings on her beast.
She spotted the red kimono directly below her. 'Inuyasha. . .' He lay, sprawled out, like he had passed out.
"Oh. . ." Kagome moaned as she shifted on the beast.
Kagome screamed as the beast changed direction and she fell.
Down. . .
Down. . .
Down. . .
Only to be caught by another flying beast.
"Hmph!" Kagome looked over to see that she was gliding right next to Inuyasha.
Her hand suddenly tightened on the gem. 'Wait a. . .!'
She opened her sweaty palm and stared at it.
"I thought that it. . .the last time it. . .oh. . ."
She looked back over to Inuyasha, who had opened his eyes dreamily to look at her.
"K-Kagome?"
She smiled. "What's up?"
He made a pained face and rolled over. "We're. . .at the tomb. . .but where's. . .?"
Kagome shook her head. "I don't know. You're the first one I found."
"What do you mean 'found'?"
Kagome smiled and pointed down, toward the ground.
Inuyasha grunted as he peered down. Then, slowly, he got to his feet.
"Well, not going to find them any faster by waiting on THESE things."
Inuyasha jumped over, scooped her up and jumped back off the bird like beast into the mouth of his father's bones.

I know, I know, horribly short, ain't it?? BUT, I am putting up another chapter or two today to make up for the shortness of it all. :P Sorry for the delay, problems at school. Ja!!
