Playing Your Part: An Immortal Love Chapter 3: Under The Moonlit Sky By: AngelRainSD7

Kagome and Miroku started their slow walk towards the rest of the group. Kagome had never felt so weird in her life. How was Inuyasha going to act around her now? He was always so cold; there was definitely no chance with him now. She can't compete with Kikyo and now she was Inuyasha! She came closer to her beloved hanyou. Should she just tell him?

Kagome decided against it. There was too much to worry about anyways, she didn't want to face the broken heart she always got whenever she came close to telling him. As she approached him, she saw that the sun was just beginning to set. It will be a beautiful night she thought to herself. She saw herself lying on the ground, but knew that it was Inuyasha. Why would anyone want to do that to us? Who is Shamura? Could it be Naraku?

"Well Kagome, you certainly look different!" She was brought back to reality as she was hit by Inuyasha's commit. Her spirit didn't lift at the attempted joke. How would they fight off youkai (demons) and gather the Shikon no Kakera (shards of the Shikon jewel)? She wouldn't be able to use her Miko (Priestess) powers or her spirit arrow, and Inuyasha wouldn't be able to use Tetsaiga's powers. She forced a smiled, but the sadness in her eyes didn't leave. Inuyasha noticed as much right away.

"Yeah, You look a bit different than usual too. Can we go on a walk? I'm pretty sure I don't need help now. Plus I need to talk to you about this." Kagome spoke quiet and calm, she needed to be reassured that he was still uncomfortable with all this. He nodded his head and she offered him a hand. He allowed her to help him up and they told every one that they would be back shortly. Kirara came with them in case they walked too far or something else happened to where they couldn't defend themselves.

"Inuyasha, what happened to you when the darkness came?" She asked in a caring way. Her words were followed by silence. A gentle gust of wind chilled her. It was a clear night and the crescent moon twinkled brightly above them as they walked through the starlight. She was afraid of what might happen, but in her heart she didn't care as long as she would have Inuyasha by her side. Inuyasha then interrupted her silence.

"All I remember is that the darkness came and I couldn't find you. I spoke your name, but no words followed. I couldn't see anyone. Then as suddenly as the darkness came, there was a huge explosion of light. I heard a voice speak the name Shamura several times, maybe five times. Then I went into a phase where I was consumed by darkness, I was lost from my own thoughts. (Just to let you know, during this phase Inuyasha saw a flash- image of Kagome smiling at him and he also saw a flash-image of Kikyo's sad look. He decided not to tell her this because he didn't know how he could with out lying.) *A/N: can you guess why Kagome saw him and he saw Kagome and Kikyo? Make you guesses in reviews as I may put in your thoughts/ideas* I woke up to hear Sango calling your name. Then I told her I was Inuyasha and thus the confusion began." He spoke to her in a softened voice he didn't use very often. It was hard to be stern in a woman's body; he wondered how Kagome did it.

He spoke again, "Kagome, I'm sure the same thing must of happened to you, or something very similar. You could have easily guessed that, so what did you really want to ask me?"

She wasn't sure of how to reply, but she took the time to think. What he said was true, she guessed that he would have explained something very similar to the events that haunted her. What did she really mean to ask him? Did she just want to be alone with him or did she intend to ask him something more? Thoughts much like these ran through her head. Why did she ask him to come? She thought harder. A chill ran down her spine. She wanted to know who he thought Shamura was and how he intended to take care of the impeccable moron. She also knew she did it partly to spend time with him, but she wasn't about to tell him that. She really needed to get used to seeing him in her body, but she hoped that wasn't for long.

"Well Inuyasha, I actually really wanted to know what you thought of Shamura, could he have any possible connections to Naraku? I . I also kind of wanted to get a little more comfortable with seeing you as me." She was hesitant with her words, she was never quite sure of what he might say, she was less certain of the affect they would have on him. The wind stayed calm, but kept up with a steady breeze. It was perfect out, almost too perfect. She waited again in silence in the stillness of the Night. The only noise that was made was the soft, purring sound Kirara made standing by Kagome's feet as she bent down to pet her.

"Well I suppose it is possible that Shamura is connected to Naraku, but what is their relationship? As for this mess, well everything just takes a little time too get used. Although I'm pretty sure I don't want to get too used to being in your body. Why do you think Shamura would've done this if he isn't connected to Naraku?" She accepted his reply and seemed to already know what he was going to ask before he asked it. He looked at her to only see himself. It still shocked him to look at Kagome and see him. He noticed her shiver and he had to fight the urge to go over and hug her.

"My only thought was that Shamura did this to weaken our abilities, but why not also switch Miroku and Sango? So my thought is that Shamura's messing with us, so the imbecile has to know us well, so Shamura and Naraku must be connected. Unless there is something that we don't know about that would give Shamura a reason to do this to us. Inuyasha, we have to find a way to kill Shamura and switch back!!!" Kagome was practically yelling; she was so irritated. Ha! Inuyasha is rubbing off on me, I'm starting to get intense and frustrated every time I think about it, she thought to herself. She was ready to rip Shamura to pieces. She couldn't return back to her era as Inuyasha; that would freak people out. She would have to find a new way to fight. The wind blew and she shivered again. The night was just soo eerie; she couldn't help herself.

It was just too much. Inuyasha couldn't hold back any longer. He went up to Kagome and hugged himself. Kagome was surprised, but quickly got over it. She hugged him back; nothing mattered any more. She didn't care that he was in her body or that he was in her body. She just wanted to be with him. They stood there with their arms around each other; a long time passed by and they stood in understanding; they needed each other. Inuyasha opened his mouth to talk, but it was Kagome who talked.

"Inuyasha, I don't care any more. I don't care if we take care of Shamura. I just want to be with you. I want to always be like this with you. I need you." Kagome whispered sincerely; she felt strongly for what she just said; she spoke from the bottom of her heart. A shooting star passed above their heads and Kagome wished that she could always be near Inuyasha. He held her closer to him and said what he was cut off from earlier.

"Kagome, I need you too. If you still want to, I want you to remain by my side; I don't know how I'd be able to get though any of this without you. It's getting late and we should get some sleep. How about tomorrow we go out and talk to people in the next village if they know anything about Shamura. So let's start heading back." He was content with Kagome's nod and took it as a signal that he was right. They broke apart from their hug, but he held on to her hand. They nudged a sleeping Kirara and they three of them start on they way back. They got back to find Miroku, Sango, and Shippo asleep by the fire they started. Kirara went over to Sango and immediately fell asleep by her side. Inuyasha pulled Kagome into a hug and he whispered softly into her ear. "Good night, Kagome, get some sleep as tomorrow will be a big day." She gave him a wary smile and went to her sleeping bag that Sango had gotten out for her. She laid down and she slept with the most peace she has had for awhile.

Inuyasha just looked at Kagome, he wasn't used to seeing himself every time he looked at her. He wasn't going to worry about any thing until tomorrow. He found an open spot by the fire and slept, he was actually able to get a deep sleep. Tomorrow they would all head into a nearby village and seek out information.
