Yeah! Next chapter out! Wow, I got so many reviews in such a short while I
hardly got any time to think about the next chapter. Oh well. New on with
the story!
Enjoy!
**Hiei's POV**
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Kagome was a murderer? She must be mistaken.
"Kagome what in the world are you talking about?" I asked carefully.
"I killed them!" she sobbed again. "I killed all of them..." she stopped yelling and screaming to look at the ground as though she was deep in thought.
"Sorry." She mumbled.
I looked at her questioningly. "What are you talking about?"
"Y-you told me not t-to talk to you u-unless you said I c-could." She stuttered.
"Kagome..." I grasped her chin to make her look at me. "Kagome I...I love you."
"Kagome looked shocked. "B-but you said-"
I cut her off. "I lied."
She looked as though she didn't believe me at first, but then she cracked a small, sad smile.
"Hiei. I still love you."
For the first time in a long time I cracked a small smile like hers. We embraced. Just when I thought that all of our problems, Kagome started to cry.
I was just about to ask what as wrong when I remembered her outburst.
"Kagome, what did you mean that you killed someone?" I asked confused.
This question made Kagome cry harder. "I killed them!" She repeated over and over as last time.
I patted her head and tried to calm her down. "Now," I said as soon as she wasn't crying as much anymore. "Tell me who you killed."
Kagome looked away as though she were ashamed. "M-my friends..." She mumbled.
I didn't like the looks of where this was going. Something was fishy about this.
"Ok, which friends?" I asked softly.
"T-the ones in...in...feudal era!" She yelled and hugged me tightly.
I couldn't believe this. Kagome killed her friends in feudal era? Wait, that wasn't the real question. The real question is why?
**Kagome's POV**
I...I killed them. All of them. Well almost all of them. Miroku is alive...I think. Oh! Why did I kill my friends? I can practically feel all of the power still flowing through me...it wanting me to kill. The worst part is, unlike Inu yasha's transformations, I remember everything.
"Kagome"
I looked up at Hiei's face. He wouldn't look me in the eye.
"Kagome, I think we need to go see Koenma..." he said softly.
I could hear something in his voice. Something I never thought I would hear. Hiei was ashamed of me! I started to cry some more, making my face more red than it already was.
"Y-you mean the p-prince of Spirit world?" I asked through my tears.
"Yeah. Come on."
**Yusuke's POV**
I was lounging in Koenma's office waiting for some clues on this Shido person when the door to the toddler's office opened. My eyes nearly popped out of my head! It was Kagome! I was so shocked I almost didn't see Hiei there.
"Kagome!" I cried, running up to her and giving her a hug.
The only thing was, was that she didn't hug me back. Something was wrong. She wouldn't even look at me.
"Kagome?" I asked. "Whats wrong? Did something happen?"
"..." She didn't answer me, so I asked Hiei instead. The little shrimp ought to know whats wrong.
"Hiei, whats wrong with Kagome?"
"..." Just as Kagome he wouldn't answer me or look at me.
They were hiding something big. Something real big.
"Kagome." Koenma asked my cousin seriously. "Have you had any encounters with a demon named Shido?"
I saw Kagome's eyes widen in shock.
Koenma must have seen it too, because he said, "Oh, so you have."
Hiei looked at Kagome. He must have not heard about this little piece of information from her.
"I-I didn't meet a demon named S-shido, b-but..." She trailed off.
"Yes? Go on."
"I met a girl that looked like me when I was dreaming and..." Kagome trailed off yet again.
"Yes?" Koenma was practically falling out of his seat trying to hear her soft voice. I would have laughed but this was a serious time.
"She said that if I ever needed her to call out S-shido..." Kagome finally finished.
"Hmm..." Koenma mused thinking hard. "That sounds like him alright...did anything else happen while you knew Shido?"
"Well..." Kagome looked to the floor. Soon after, I saw silent tears fall down her face.
"Kagome, what's wrong?!" I asked, panicked.
"Yusuke!" Koenma said to me sharply. "Do not interrupt!"
Quietly, I backed down. I never heard Koenma sound so cross before.
"Continue, Kagome."
"Well, this girl, she said she was my other self." Kagome paused for a breath. "She said that my friends where mean...then, she touched my fore head. I didn't know until later, but she put a jewel shard in my forehead." Again Kagome stopped. She started to cry.
"T-then I f-felt this incredible power f-flow through me." Kagome began again. "I...I am a murder!" She yelled out.
We all gasped. Kagome kill someone? That was absurd.
"Who did you kill?" Koenma was the first of all of us to say something after the shock.
"M-my...My friends...in...in feudal era..."
**Kagome's POV**
They hate me now! They all must hate me now. Oh, I'm such a horrible person! I can't stay here with them to see it my prediction is true or not. I have to go!
With that thought I ran out the door, but before I ran out the portal I looked over my shoulder to see Hiei. He was still looking at the floor. I could feel tears escape my eyes once more. Even though he said he loved me, he must hate me now that I have killed someone.
With that, I stepped through the portal.
*@#*@#*@#*@#*@#*@#*@#*@#*@#!
When I got home, I flung myself onto my bed and cried tears that I didn't even know I had left. I am a murderer. I am a murderer. I am a murderer. Those words kept running through my head. It was like a never ending song of sadness. A broken record in my head. I am a murderer.
In the middle of all my tear's and sadness I must have fallen asleep, because when I suddenly saw Shido in my form.
"Kagome," he said with that same kindness that fooled me the last time. "Kagome, you killed you're friends. You should be happy their dead. Isn't that what you wanted?"
"Stay away!" I called to Shido as He came to give me a hug.
"Shido?" He asked. Who is that? Isn't the name I told you to call you if you needed me?" She asked playing dumb.
"Don't play dumb with me. "I said to him voicing my thoughts. "I know who you are."
(A/n: If you are getting confused right now because Kagome keeps calling her other self Him, and Shido it's because Shido is a shape shifter and he can change his shape to a girls. So Shido is pretending to be a girl, but Kagome knows that he is a guy, and that's he shido. It is in her POV. Confusing, ne?)
He let his bangs cover his eyes. "So you know." He smirked. "Well then, I don't need to keep this form." Soon, his body began to morph from my form to another.
I was shocked. He was actually...handsome...He had long black hair with piercing gold eyes. (Like Inu yasha's) Built pretty well and a well chiseled face. He had a gold necklace around his neck. (Realm's maiden)
"I am Shido." He announced his name as though he was royalty.
"You made me kill all of my friend's in feudal era!" I blamed Shido.
"Yes, and you're anger was quiet delicious. As well as the sadness you are giving off now." He smirked.
This made me angry. What was I, some kind of food?! "Give them back!" I yelled even though I knew he probably didn't have that power. "Give me back my friends!"
He looked at me weird, and then laughed. "Why would I do that for yo-"he stopped mid sentence. He looked like he was thinking. "You, Kagome, do you really want you're friends back?" I could see that he was scheming something. "Yes. They are very dear to me."
Shido looked at his fingernails and said casually, "Would you give, oh I don't know," He flashed me a quick smirk then quickly looked back at his nails. "Anything?"
I looked at him suspiciously. "Yes." I replied slowly. What was he thinking?
"Well than," Shido looked at me carefully through the corner of his eye. "Give me you're life."
I almost choked. Did he just ask me to give him my life? "What did you say?" I asked just to make sure my hearing was good.
"If you give me you're life than I will raise you're friend's from the dead." He repeated calmly.
Now I was really confused. "Wait."
"Why?" he cut me off before I could finish what I was saying. "I thought you would do anything for you're deceased friends." He taunted.
"I would do anything for them, but two questions: 1) Why do you want my life and 2) How are you going to bring my friends back to life?" I asked.
"Simple. You're soul is sad. If I were to devour it, it would be a great source of nutrients. And the necklace I wear is not only for decoration girl. It is the rare Realm's maiden. It can go through time and spaces to bring you're friends back to life. Long complicated logic that I'm not explaining." Shido explained to me.
I had to think this over. My friends didn't deserve to die. Also I killed them. If this were modern day murder I would be electrocuted to death. I deserve to die. And everyone hates me. I wouldn't be hurting anyone if I let him have my life. I don't see any negative points in this deal except one...I care if I live or not, but...this is for the best.
I let my bangs cover my eyes, and silently said, "I agree."
**Miroku's POV**
I thought I had died from that blow, but luckily I was still alive. I looked around me, and almost cried. All of my friends were dead. Even Sango...
I small piece of hope made me check their pulses, just incase. Yes, they were dead. I laid on Sango's dead stomach, and started to cry. My only ever true love was dead...or so I thought until she mumbled. "Miroku you're heavy. Get off."
I couldn't believe it! She was alive! But a moment ago when I checked her pulse, she was dead. Something is not right. I pulled up Sango's shirt to look at her stomach.
*Slap!*
"Miroku, what in the world are you doing?!" She cried blushing like crazy.
"My intentions were innocent. I just wanted to see if the wound Kagome made was still there or not." I explained.
She was still blushing. "Oh." Then, her face turned serious. "I wonder where Kagome is, and why she did that to us. Speaking of which the wounds are bone and I'm alive. I could have sworn I remember dieing..."
"Hmm...true. Also as I was fighting Kagome, I saw a jewel shard in her forehead. In the end of the fight I knocked it off and she seemed to concert back to normal."
"Kagome had a jewel shard in her fore head? No wonder she was acting so strange." I heard a some what gruff voice say behind me.
"Inu yasha! You are alive!" I got up and walked up to him.
"Of course I am monk. It takes more than a few cuts here and there to kill me." He said cockily.
"But you were dead a moment ago." I said. "I checked you're pulse and there was no blood pumping."
"I was?" Inu yasha asked surprised. "But then, how am I alive? And Sango? I saw her die. How can she be alive?"
"Probably the same way you were revived." I answered. "There is definitely the use of magic used here."
The only question running through all of our heads at the moment was 'who?'
**Shido's POV**
That girl, Kagome, was quiet delicious. Her power was an excellent bonus too. I wonder how all the people that know her will react. I laughed. They would probably cry.
Just then, a thought struck me, if I can find them...their sadness will probably taste wonderful...hmm...I must find these other friends of her, as well as the ones I just brought back.
**Hiei's POV**
I was still thinking about how Kagome could kill someone, when a funny feeling struck me. A...sad feeling as though someone close to me...died. I didn't like the sounds of that.
Just then that ogre, Gorge, came rushing through the doors of Koenma's office.
"Sir, there has been a new death of a powerful person." He said, with a file, probably of the 'powerful' person, with the person who died.
Koenma, who was still stamping papers said, "Go on, ogre. I'm listening."
"A girl named Kagome. Kagome Higurashi sir."
Would you look at that! I've killed Kagome off the story. LOL. Don't worry she'll come back. Anyways, I would like seven reviews. Well see ya later. Also, I will not be here starting tomorrow because I'm going to bush gardens. I'll be back on Friday. Well, now I really gotta go.
Prieview: *sigh* I don't know...I'm still thinking. Just read the next chapter. Probally the fight with Shido...who knows? I don't even know.
Enjoy!
