Hello there you peoples!! How are you? Here you are another fic!! Service
with a smile!! ^_^
Disclaimer- me no own Inu-Yasha!! *now me sad*
Kagome watched the battle progress into the early afternoon, yet another fight against Naraku and his minions. Inu-Yasha was at the middle of it all slicing demons with the tetsusaiga, trying to get to Naraku. Miroku was helping with the use of his wind tunnel.
Sango was busy fending off her younger brother; her boomerang bone was clashing with Kohaku's chained sickle. Kagome was fighting all she could with her purifying arrows, trying to defend both Shippo and the still injured Kirara.
While shooting her arrows at attacking demons Kagome could sense a dozen or so new demons arriving. That's funny, she thought, I could swear I felt this energy before. Glancing at the spot where she felt a demon she was greeted with the familiar site of Kikyo, clad in a red and white kimono. Trailing behind Kikyo were the soul-stealing demons who always accompanied her.
Kikyo watched with a cold calmness as she saw Inu-Yasha cut through a horde of fighting demons. Then she spotted the one person she had come for, her reincarnation. The girl was trying to defend her friends, shooting her arrows at the oncoming band of demons. Kagome abruptly stopped shooting and her eyes met Kikyo's, telling Shippo and Kirara to have Miroku guard them she started toward Kikyo.
The two girls eyed the other with anger. Kikyo despised Kagome because the girl was making Inu-Yasha a kinder person, something that she herself could be doing had she lived through Naraku's deception. Kagome hated Kikyo because the walking dead woman hungered for Inu-Yasha's life after fifty years, even though she knew that it was Naraku who had set them against one another.
Kagome knew that if Inu-Yasha saw Kikyo he would spend his time trying to protect her. This could cause Inu-Yasha to lose his life; he was barely winning as it was. Knowing that the only way she could keep Kikyo occupied and still have Inu-Yasha's life intact was to lead the undead priestess into the forest and away from the battle. Grabbing the Shikon shards around her neck she took one look at her friends before she ran off into the forest.
Foolish girl, where does she think she's going with MY shikon shards?! She can't run for long, soon she will tire and then I'll kill her and take the shards from her. Kikyo let herself be carried away by her obedient demons.
Running through the thick foliage Kagome looked back to see if Kikyo was following her. Although she couldn't see the priestess Kagome could sense the many demons that always surrounded her. "Aaaahhhhhhh!" Kagome had slipped on a wet patch of grass. Sprawled on the forest floor Kagome looked at the path she was running down. Whoa, Kagome saw the path where she had been sprinting. It led to a cliff edge, crawling over to it she saw that the cliff was very steep, probably leading to a 200 ft. fall.
"Kagome," Kikyo's voice was cold and calm. "You can not run from me anymore. Once I have your shikon jewel shards I'll get rid of you. You're nothing but an imitation, a fake! Inu-Yasha will then follow me to hell. There is nothing you can do to stop me." "Ha! Like I'd want to imitate a dead woman! Your body is made of grave soil and bone; you need the souls of deceased women to even mobilize that pile of filth!" "Shut up! Die imposter!" Kikyo raised her bow and arrow at Kagome. Kagome stood up from where she was on the ground. The arrow flew at high speed toward Kagome. Screaming, Kagome dodged the speeding arrow that was aimed at her heart. Picking up her own bow and arrows that had fallen to the ground, Kagome notched an arrow in the bow. Pointing at Kikyo she let the arrow fly. At the same time Kikyo shot another arrow point blank at Kagome.
Thwap! Kagome's purifying arrow hit Kikyo square in the chest. Gasping, Kikyo looked down at the wound and collapsed to the dirt, her already dead body turning back to bone and grave soil. All that was left was a bloody red and white kimono. Kagome didn't see the arrow hit her but, she sure felt it. Pain like she never knew coursed through her shoulder; it felt like a dagger was being turned slowly in her shoulder. The force of Kikyo's arrow made her stumble over the dangerous ledge of the cliff.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Naraku saw the young girl run off with the shikon shards, along with the priestess Kikyo following her. He had tracked them to the edge of the cliff; a small fight had ensued resulting in the girl falling over the steep edge. Kikyo had been destroyed by the girl; an arrow had hit her in the chest killing her instantly.
He appeared by the side of the fallen girl, a tree had cushioned the fall some what. He thought her dead for sure, until he stood by her, feebly Kagome tried to open her eyes. "In-u-ya-sh..." she tried to speak but became too weak. Kagome fell into a realm of unconsciousness. Naraku looked her over, either he could just take the shikon shards from her or, he could use her for bait to trap Inu-Yasha. Choosing to use her as bait, Naraku picked up the young girl, carrying her in his arms. Mentally calling to Kohaku, he told the boy to quit the fight and go back to the castle.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inu-Yasha, Miroku and Sango were busy fighting the army of demons who had been sent by Naraku, when all of a sudden the demons retreated.
"Inu-Yasha! They're leaving!" Sango shouted to Inu-Yasha pointing to Kohaku. The boy was leading the demons away.
Looking around Inu-Yasha saw Sango in her demon exterminator outfit and, Miroku standing with both Shippo and Kirara. Sniffing the air he could barely make out the scent of Kagome among the stench of demon blood. Kagome, where is she? I can just make out her scent. Along with..Kikyo! Kikyo was here, where did they go?!
"Monk! Where is Kagome?!" Inu-Yasha's voice was thick with anger. If anything happened to Kagome.
"I think she ran off into the forest. The priestess Kikyo had arrived and Kagome knew she would be a fatal distraction to you. Kagome told Shippo and Kirara come to me to protect them. I do not know Lady Kagome had gone to."
Inu-Yasha sped into the dark forest. He followed the sweet scent of Kagome and the other scent of dirt and bone, the one he knew to be Kikyo's. Soon there was the scent of blood; the air was thick with it. Suddenly he stopped running. Allowing the rest of the group to catch up, in front of him lay the remains of the women he had loved fifty years ago. What was left of the long dead priestess fluttered in the wind. An arrow pinned the bloodied garments of Kikyo to the dirt ground. The half demon clenched his fists and closed his eyes. When the rest of the group caught up Sango gasped. Miroku wouldn't let Shippo see the awful sight. After a long time Inu-Yasha moved, he went to the edge of the cliff and looked down. "Miroku," he spoke softly, trying to suppress the grief he felt. "I...I want you to say something to put Kikyo's soul to rest." "Inu-Yasha, do you think we should look for Lady Kagome? She might still be alive." "Kagome...she was the person who shot Kikyo. Her scent is all over the arrow. By what I can smell Kagome's blood is on the ground. The scent ends at this ledge." "No!" Sango spoke with panic in her voice. "You don't think that Kagome .. She couldn't have fallen!" "Kagome probably was shot by Kikyo. The force of the arrow threw her off balance and... I would think she died instantly, when she hit the ground." Inu- Yasha's voice was barely above a whisper. Shippo started crying and Sango tried to comfort the kitsune with her own tears. Miroku looked shocked as Inu-Yasha turned from everyone to grieve for the double loss. "Inu-Yasha, should we go and retrieve the.. remains of Lady Kagome? We should lay both Kagome to rest as soon as possible, before the night is upon us." Miroku spoke softly to Inu-Yasha.
"Yes, the ravine looks like a very long way down. Don't let Shippo see..Kagome. Lets go, we don't have much time." The group progressed as Inu-Yasha led the Sango and Miroku to the bottom of the cliff. When they finally reached their destination Inu-Yasha was surprised to discover that the Kagome's body was absent. Blood was abundant in one particular area though. Inu-Yasha could smell that Naraku had been at the spot some time ago. His scent was mingled with the sweet smell of Kagome. Naraku!! No please.He didn't! How dare he! How dare he take Kagome away from her friends! That bastard! Inu-Yasha silently fumed over what to do when another thought hit him. What will he do with Kagome? If he even touches her I'll rip his guts out and make him eat them!! "Inu-Yasha, have you located .Kagome?" Miroku spoke with a forced even voice. "Is Kagome alive?!" False hope laced Sango's voice. She desperately held onto any notion that Kagome was still in this realm. "I...I don't know. Her blood is prominent in this area." Inu-Yasha numbly pointed to a spot on the ground where blood had soaked in the dirt. "But her body is missing. Also I smell.. Naraku." "Naraku!?! You don't think... He wouldn't dare take her." Sango's voice had panic ringing in it. Miroku looked too stunned for words. "I don't know. If he did we need to catch up to him fast. Let's go we're wasting time here." The half demon walked away, heading toward the top of the cliff to retrieve Shippo and Kirara.
