I don't own Inu-yasha

Chapter 8- Secrets exposes

Kagura was held back by the cops who just arrived. "I'LL KILL YOU KAGOME! I'LL KILL YOU KIKYO!"

"Shut up!" The cops pulled her to the police car.

"D-dad??? Is that you?" Kagome smiled and frowned. "WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME HERE WITH THAT EVIL MAN?"

"K-k-kagome... I'm sorry for what I did, I had to... I did that to save you... I d-d-didn't want small Kikyo k-k-killed by a triad..."

"Don't talk daddy, hang on!" Kagome hugged her father's arm.

Kikyo ran to Kagome to see why she was crying. "What's wrong Kagome? Who is he?"

"K-Kikyo..."

"How do you know my name?" No one replied to her.

"I w-want to tell you something... Y-You didn't kill y-your mother... Please, stay strong..." He started coughing up blood and having a hard time to breathe.

She started to recognize the bleeding man. "Dad! What? NO!" Kikyo's tears rolled off her cheeks.

"I have to go... R-remember... I-I-I l-love..." He groaned from the pain and his grasp on Kagome's shirt dropped before he could tell them he loves them.

"DAD! NO!" Kikyo cried over her father. "...Please no... I don't want this...Dad!"

"Kikyo, Kagome..." Inu-yasha rubbed Kikyo's back and Miroku hugged Kagome.

-At the funeral-

At her father's funeral, there was no one but Kagome and Kikyo. Inu-yasha was waiting in the car listening to hip-hop.

Raindrops fell on them as they watched the priest fixing the his shirt. The cold wind brushed against Kikyo's cheeks. The grey clouds continued gathering.

"Kagome?"

"Yes?"

"Why did daddy left us with Naraku if he loves us?"

Kagome sighed. "He was protecting us. He didn't want us killed... It's a gesture of love I guess..." Kagome wiped her tears.

Kikyo narrowed her eyes. "AND LETTING A STRANGER HURTING US IS LOVE?" She started throwing the chairs and breaking the tables. "NO ONE IS EVEN HERE TO RESPECT HIM!!!"

"Kikyo, please, get a grip! He didn't know...He didn't know..."

"After all those years, I thought he hated us... But he loves us..." Kikyo fell to the ground.

The priest held a bible and an umbrella. "It's raining, no one is here, let's start this now shall we?"

"We are gathered here today..."

As he spoke Kikyo held a lily and placed it on his father's coffin. "I love you too dad..."

-At Inu-yasha's car-

"Inu-yasha?"

"Yeah Kikyo?"

"It's my father's funeral... Miroku isn't here and you are wearing red while everyone wore black..."

"So?"

"SO? IT'S OUR FATHER'S DEATH! HAVE SOME RESPECT WILL YOU???" Before Kikyo jumps out of her seat and clobber Inu-yasha, Kagome held her back.

"CALM DOWN KIKYO!" Kikyo sighed angrily and cursed softly. "Watch your mouth Kikyo, potty mouths makes the lord unhappy." (They are very religious sometimes)

"Tch..."

-At Inu-yasha's mansion-

"Inu-yasha?" Kikyo asked coldly.

"Yea?"

"Where's the restroom? This place is too big..."

"Uhhh... Here?" He opened a door but it was the closet. "HEY! IT'S BIG FOR ME TOO! I just got this place, look for yourself..." He walked away grumbling.

"Gee, for a doctor he sure has some bad manners..."

After searching for 5 minutes, she found a door ajar behind the shelf. "What's that?" She shoved the shelf aside and found a door. She opened it and found a stair way leading downstairs. The floorboards creaked as she walked down. The warm air surrounded her cold skin she looked right and found a whole bunch of junk and a bathroom.

"Good grief! I found it! I never knew he had 4 basements..." She walked to the dusty bathroom and saw a photo in the trash that was torn, she dug through he trash can and placed the pieces back together. "It's a family... They even look related to Inu-yasha... Huh, names are on here... Sesshoumaru, Kana, Ayame, and Shippo "They look like a happy family..." She flipped the photo over and found the words: Next victim. The faces were marked X on top. "By god!" She slipped the ripped photo in her and walked upstairs. [She forgot to go to the restroom...]

"Kikyo, why were you downstairs?" Kagome raised an eyebrow.

"Bathroom. Didn't know where it was..."

"Oh, it's in your room over there." She pointed the bathroom in her room.

"D'OHT!"

Kagome giggled. "Check your room first before sneaking around the house."

"Kagome, I need to talk to you..." Kikyo shoved Kagome in her room.

"What is it?"

Kikyo took out the photo she found. "I suspect that Miroku and Inu-yasha murdered these people. It was in the downstairs basement behind the shelf."

"Why were you looking behind the shelf for the bathroom?"

"I saw a faint door ajar behind the shelf, I was curious."

"Well, just don't sneak around anymore. You don't have proof that they killed them."

"Well, I'm going to investigate..." Kikyo said softly.

"Being a hero now huh?"

"Kagome, look out for yourself... You're older and supposed to be aware! Don't trust Inu-yasha or Miroku! They just want the money from us. That's why we didn't have the court with Naraku again. They'll kill us all. When we die, they'll steal the money our mother left us. Please, trust me..."

"What ever do you mean Sherlock Holmes?"

"Who?"

"Never mind..."

"You don't believe me huh?"

Kagome was still. She looked away and sighed.

"So, that's how it is..." Kikyo nodded her head a little tears filled her eyes. "All right, but one thing I'm going to tell you, please, take care..."

Later that night Kikyo walked downstairs to the basement again, she was never afraid of anything but the pain Naraku gave her.

Nothing unordinary was seen. She looked around holding a flashlight. She tripped on a rock. "STUPID ROCK!" She got up and kicks the rock. "It's yellowish white..." She took a shovel she found next to her and dug it up. "It's a bone!" It took a while for her to dig the bones up. So she decided to turn on the light and pray no one will find her here. She took a few of the bones and threw it behind the pile of junk. Then she heard footsteps.

"WHO'S THERE?" Kikyo growled. "Reveal yourself!!!"

"My, my Kikyo, you are such a curious girl... Tsk, tsk... Curiosity killed the cat..." He held a knife and pointed it at Kikyo's neck.

"Inu-yasha? WHY DID YOU KILL THIS FAMILY???"

"Why? WHY? I'M POOR AS SHIT! I NEED CASH MAN!"

"You could work hard! Money doesn't fall from the sky you know..."

"YOU THINK I NEVER TRIED THAT??? I DID!"

"How did it go?"

"Worse day of my life..." Inu-yasha looked down. "But now you know too much..." Inu-yasha took the ropes next to Kikyo and tied her up. He took some duct tape and taped her mouth so she couldn't scream. He started cutting off Kikyo's fingers.

"This one robbed the bank..." He cut off her pinky.

"This one was too stubborn..." He chopped of the ring.

"This one was too curious..." He cut off the middle.

"This one was too heroic..." He broke her index and left it alone.

"This one was afraid..." He left it alone also. "But I'm going to kill it anyway..." He snapped off the fingernail on Kikyo's thumb and left the blood leaked on the ground.

Kikyo muffled no. But all you can hear is "MMM!!! MMM!!!"

"HAHAHA! I LOVE THE PAIN YOU GET!" He started carving symbols on her other arm. "I need more entertainment Kikyo..." A smirk appeared on her lips. He snapped her fragile bones on her finger and continuously stabbed the dagger in the palm of her hands.

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kikyo started sobbing. Tears poured out.

"Guess what? I LOVE THAT NOISE!" the maniac started walk in front of her holding a sharper knife. "You know an urban legend?" Kikyo was silent. He punched her face. "DO YOU KNOW ONE?"

Kikyo shut her eyes and shook her head.

"Well, I guess I'll tell you one... A man was at a bar, a hot chick sat next to him and got him drunk. She soon brings him to her room and had some fun. The next morning, he showered and found a scar on his back, the lady left, and his bed was full of blood. He ran to the doctor to ask what that is. They did some scans and said his kidney was removed. She had anesthetic with her but I don't... So bare with me..." Inu-yasha ripped her bottom shirt off and started making small doodles on her back. Kikyo started sobbing softly.

"SHUT UP!" Inu-yasha punched Kikyo's face. Making her unconscious.

-Upstairs- "What's that noise?" Kagome got up and heard it coming behind the shelf. "Hmm..."

-Downstairs- Inu-yasha heard jiggling on the knob so he quickly untied Kikyo and slit her wrist. It was deep. Crimson blood flooded around Kikyo.

Inu-yasha ran up the stairs and opened the door. "KAGOME! Kikyo committed suicide!" He picked up Kikyo in his arms and carried her upstairs. "GET THE CAR KEYS! GET MIROKU!" Kagome took the car keys she found on the ground and handed it to Inu-yasha. She turned to Miroku's room and opened his door.

"GET UP MIROKU!"

-In the hospital (YES AGAIN! I HATE IT!)-

Kikyo laid on the bed with an oxygen mask on her.

"Kikyo, why did you do that?" Kagome cried softly on Kikyo's bed. "Why?"

'They aren't that bad... I wonder why I even bother conning them... NO! I CANNOT HAVE A SOFT SPOT!' "I'm sure she had a reason..." Inu-yasha pretended to soothe Kagome.

"Inu-yasha, may I ask you a few questions?" Miroku placed his hand on Inu-yasha's back.

"Yea..." They both walked into the restroom. "What's up?"

"WHY DID YOU SLIT HER WRIST???"

"SHE KNEW..."

"WHAT?"

"Miroku, she found OUT WE DID IT..."

"Hey, YOU started it..."

"MAN! WE STICK TOGETHER AND FALL TOGETHER!"

"WHAT IF WE GO TO JAIL???"

"WE WON'T MAN! We won't..."

Miroku calmed down and nodded. "Do what's necessary..."

They walked out and Inu-yasha walked behind the doctor. He looked over the shoulder of the nurse who was opening the door of medicine.

When the nurse left, he opened the same code and took the medicine that can kill Kikyo if not used properly.

"Kagome, go get us some drink from the first floor that nurses go okay?" Kagome nodded and left. Inu-yasha pulled the needle that was morphine for Kikyo and placed the medicine inside.

Miroku threw the morphine's needle out the window and threw the rest of the parts in the trash can.

Soon the fluids went into Kikyo's arm.
