CHAPTER 4 – Shikon
"Higurashi."
"..."
"Higurashi."
"Kagome!" Sango whispered and gave her friend a nudge, telling her to stand up and greet the teacher. Kagome shook her head and stared at Sango questioningly, Sango moved her eyes on her and up. Motioning her to get up.
"For the last time Higura-"
"Hai!" Kagome immediately stood up, giving her teacher an apologetic look. The elderly teacher gave a concerned look.
"You're always paying attention in class... are you alright?"
Kagome honestly didn't know what to answer, she had a nightmare last night about a friend who turned into a youkai... and it was horrible, he was cold to her, as if not remembering her at all... the image of him still visible on her thoughts.
"Hai... I'm alright..." she lied, not saying anything else. The teacher knew she was hiding something because she obviously doesn't look alright; she just nodded and greeted everybody.
"Good Morning class."
"Good Morning Ayashi-sama."
Ayashi gave a nod and gestured them to sit down, facing to the board, she wrote something on it.
"You are to draw a portrait of someone, it is 10% of your overall grade in Art. Anything would do." Some groans can be heard, some protested that they don't know how to draw that much, Ayashi sighed, "Japanese Animation is accepted." The class cheered and began to get materials from the art rack. Only Kagome and Sesshoumaru remained seated, the only thing they need is pencils. Sesshoumaru leaned forward from his seat and whispered something to her ear.
"Are you feeling alright Kagome?" he whispered worriedly, she only gave a small nod.
"I'm alright Sess, tell Miroku, Inuyasha, Kouga and Kikyou to meet me and Sango at the fountain in front of the school, I need to tell you guys something." She whispered back, giving him a quiet smile. He nodded and sank back to his chair. Ayashi noticed that Kagome's expression lightened a bit; she silently smiled as she passed blank papers to everyone to draw on.
The classroom's volume turned down, everyone concentrating on his or her works. Ayashi passed through each rows to see how the students are faring, she shook her head each time she sees something childish, simple 3 circles and whoala! A mickey mouse! She sighed dejectedly.
Flying pigs... a kid with devil horns and a fork on his hand... skeleton person... fruits with faces... those were kid's drawing! Ayashi stopped dead in her track when she spotted Sesshoumaru's work. It was fantastic! A portrait of a girl sitting on a chair, arm propped on the desk, chin on top of her palms. As if watching him draw her form.
"Excellent Sesshoumaru." She complimented him with a smile; he gave a silent thanks and continued his work. Ayashi took a closer look, her eyes widen at the realization of whom he was drawing. "Kagome?" she whispered only for Sesshoumaru to hear, he didn't reply but gave a small nod. She smiled and gave his shoulder a pat before stopping beside Kagome's chair.
"Who's that Kagome?" she asked her quietly, Kagome looked up startled.
"Oh nothing Ms. Ayashi. I dreamt of him last night but I do not know who." Her voice fell, a sad smile on her face, "It was a nightmare, he was a good friend of mine and he turned into a youkai." She whispered, a nagging thought told her to be aware of what she would do if she were to transform into her true form. 'Would I have the same mistake I've done in my dreams?' she wondered silently.
"Don't worry, we all know youkais don't exist in the world today," she a nervous laugh, but her subconscious doesn't agree with that. 'I'm a youkai once, and I can't live with it now.' She thought sadly. Kagome gave a sigh and sank on her chair tiredly, giving Ayashi a perfect view of what she was drawing. She inwardly gasped as she remembered the image. 'The Lord of the Western lands!'
"I want to meet him, even if he's a youkai. But it's just dream, he can't be true." She sighed and closed her eyes. 'You'll regret what you said if you met him.' Ayashi still remembered how vicious the western lord was, cold-hearted demon without mercy. Would slaughter innocents for the sake of honor.
"Ms. Ayashi?" Myouga knocked on the door. Ayashi rushed to the door and stared down at the older teacher.
"May I help you Myouga-sama?" she asked him politely. He nodded.
"Thank you for your kindness Ms. Ayashi. Can I request for the your class to be dismissed earlier than normal? 10 minutes before the normal time and have their break for 15 minutes and tell them to go with you to the 'room' if it's okay." Ayashi glanced down at her watch.
"Okay Sir."
"Thank you Ms. Ayashi."
"Welcome Myouga-sama." With that, Myouga bowed and walk out of the classroom. "Are you guys finish yet?" she asked aloud, some are finished and some are not. "Mr. Myouga told me to dismiss you 10 minutes before the bell, take your break for 15 minutes and go to the restricted part of the library, he will be waiting for you there." She sat down and wondered why they were to go to that room.
It had been closed for nearly 50 years, only teachers could enter. Students who dare to sneak would be automatically kicked out of the school. So why would he let students enter the sacred room? What's the use of going there if the only thing that resides there is the one that nobody can ever touch?
"Why?" somebody asked aloud.
"I do not know." Ayashi confessed. They began to murmur things, Sesshoumaru look curiously at Kagome. She shrugged her shoulders and shook her head.
"I do not know what dwells in there. It was restricted to students."
~~~~~
"What do you want to talk about Kagome?" Inuyasha asked, sitting himself beside Kikyou.
"All right, everyone is here." She took a deep breath, "I need to tell you guys about my recent revelations about my true self." They all gave her a confused look.
"What do you mean about recent revelation Kagome?" Sango asked worriedly.
"You won't believe me."
"Try me."
Kagome took a deep breath, 'Here I go.'
"Did you know about the legendary goddess miko we're going to discuss in History?"
"Ya, what does she have to do with you?" Miroku scratched his head.
"Because I'm her."
"WHAT?!" they all shouted simultaneously, receiving several curious look from the people around them.
"Be quiet!" she hissed, glaring at them.
"What do you mean by you being the legendary-" before Sesshoumaru could finish his sentence, Kagome's palm on his lips stopped him.
"Do not say the word."
"Why?" he questioned her right after her hand left his lips.
"I would be unconscious then. It's hard to explain all." She shrugged her shoulders, "Remember when I read your mind Sess?" he just gave a nod, "That was one of my growing abilities, and I can communicate telepathically. Let's try it on Miroku."
'Yo hentai!' she called, Miroku eyes lit up.
"Cool!" he grinned, "But I prefer to be addressed by my name."
"And when I hear someone utters my true name, that is Kamego, or my title, legendary goddess-miko... I would be unconscious."
"For how many hours?"
"My mom said it was approximately about 3-5 minutes? But she was not sure herself."
"But why?" Kikyou asked worriedly, "Is this some kind of a spell?"
"I do not know why, the only thing I'm sure is that when I hear those two titles, I'm going to be unconscious. And when I became unconscious 10 times, I would transform in my true self." She explained, "I'm only allowed to tell this to 6 persons. So I trust you guys not to tell this to anyone."
They nodded in unison and made a pact in front of the fountain.
~~~~~
"Everyone gather around me please." Myouga gestured, Kagome and Sesshoumaru followed suit. Sango and Miroku stood behind them.
"I thought we're not allowed to enter this door?" Kiruza asked as she pointed at the ancient door, Myouga gave a knowing look.
"I know, but recently there's something happening inside this room. The Shikon has awakened once more." Everyone including Ayashi gasped.
"It can't be!" Ayashi whispered, earning several questioning look from the student, "But Myouga-sama, the Shikon has been dead for 50 years!"
"I know. It has been dead right after the death of the powerful miko guarding it. It has put up a barrier ever since, anyone tries to touch it is rejected by the barrier. But yesterday, the Shikon started glowing brightly." He explained worriedly, "Do you think this is the sign of a new keeper?" he directly asked Ayashi. She just shook her head.
"But the Shikon has only one keeper! And that is Kamego!"
The knowing group heard Kagome's name and immediately turn to Kagome's direction. She had fainted in Sesshoumaru's arms. They quickly ran towards the two.
"I thought it was a mere joke." Kouga mumbled, eyeing Kagome as her brows furrowed together. A disturbing feeling she felt... something was bound to happen...
~~~~~
"Kagome?" Sesshoumaru called when she started to stir in his arms, she squinted her eyes at the brightness of the room.
"Uhh..." she groaned and clutched her spinning head, "It's true then..." she muttered quietly, Sesshoumaru gave a nod. He helped her up and pushed her head to lie on his chest for support.
"Are you feeling okay Kagome?" he asked worriedly and ran his fingers on her hair. She gave a small nod and cuddled closer to his warmth.
"Where the others?" Her voice muffled by his uniform.
"They had entered the room." He replied, she look up and met his eyes. He just stared at her silver orbs in shock.
"What?"
"Your eyes... it turned gold..."
"Ah... okaasan said that every time I became unconscious my power grows more and more, my appearance also change..."
"I see." Was his only answer, "Shall we go in?"
"Hai." But still, that disturbing feeling kept bothering her senses, 'What are you trying to tell me?' she silently questioned herself.
~~~~~
"Why is the jewel here? Shouldn't it be in a museum or something?" A boy questioned as Kagome and Sesshoumaru entered the darkened room.
"Nice question. The powerful miko we're about to discuss left it here when she died. This was a shrine back then." He explained with a smile, Ayashi nodded and turn on the lights. The Shikon was glowing and it was shaking.
"Wha-what's happening Myouga-sama?!" Ayashi stuttered, fear crept on her spine, Myouga took a step back.
"I do not know, let's get the kids outta here-"
"Kyaaaaaaaaa!!!" someone behind them screeched, Myouga and Ayashi dashed to the owner of the voice. They gasped when they saw Kagome curling in Sesshoumaru's arms.
"What happened to her Sesshoumaru?!" Myouga asked frantically, Sesshoumaru didn't say anything as he whispered comforting words in her ear, which seems to be useless.
"Kagome! Kagome can you hear me!?" Ayashi shouted at her shivering form, Kagome clutched her shirt directly over her heart. She began to glow purplish and they backed away, Sesshoumaru stared at her as she sobbed on his chest.
"Kagome what's happening to you! Say something!" he shook her shoulders, trying to get her attention, but it seems that she doesn't hear anything.
Help me Sesshou... it hurts...
He froze, Kagome was speaking to him mentally.
Tell me what's happening Kagome!
"The Shikon..." she whimpered, "It's trying to merge with my soul..."
