Kagome woke slowly, her face ground against the wet stone of the wall.
She could feel every scrape and cut like they were on fire.
Suddenly something penetrated her back, tearing the skin apart.
She screamed, pain filling her voice.
----
Kikyou slashed at the miko's back, tearing at it.
She tore at kagome's legs as well, preventing any chance of escape her reincarnation had.
Blood hung in the musky air like mist, spraying on the walls and herself and the child.
Her power faded with every strike, so slight that she didn't even notice it.
-------
Inuyasha and the others raced into the shrine, blood laced the air.
He saw the stairs and raced toward them but was knocked back with a force of magick.
Then he saw the talismans over the door.
"Kagome!" he screamed, throwing himself at the shocking barrier again and again.
"Inuyasha." came a voice, a hand held him back.
He looked up to see his brother.
'Sesshomaru. Let. Go." He warned, struggling to get out of his brother's grasp.
--------
"Inuyasha. Stop. There is another way." He said, looking down at his hanyou brother.
"What in the Hell do you mean?!" He demanded.
Sesshomaru pointed toward the floor.
"What's that supposed to mean?!" Inuyasha demanded.
------
Kikyou paused in her swing, the blade came back and bit her leg but she was unconcerned with that.
She looked up at the ceiling.
"So, your precious Inuyasha has come to save you." She grinned before taking up her rhythm again.
----
Kagome dimly heard Kikyou's words, the world was a dark grey on grey.
whimpers escaped her lips when the sharp strike of the bladed whip hit her, but she was far from this world.
She was enveloped in memory.

"I'll always protect you." Inuyasha said, flying high with her in his arms.
She smiled and looked up at him, framed by moonlight.
the wind swirled around them, carrying cherry blossoms up and around them, catching in his hair.
He picked a blossom from her hair, smelling the gentle fragrance.
"You are so beautiful." he whispered as they floated in the air, falling slowly down into the forrest.
They landed on a small pond.
inuyasha walked with her across the water, using a bit of energy to keep them a few inches above the lapping calm.
She was silent as they sat against a sun warmed rock and stared into the sky.
It was so beutiful in this time, no smog or skyscrapers to cloud the sky.

kagome was brought back by the sound of her name.
Then Kikyou was hovering over her.
"You stupid bitch, you really think he will save you? none of them can." Kikyou said, grinning as she twisted a knife in her hands.
Kikyou started carving into Kagome's shoulder, trailing the blade around to the back of her neck, tracing rose patterns as she went. She ended the mark at the base of her spine, letting the blood flow into the many small pools already on the floor.
As kagome's world faded to complete black she saw a flash of white-grey.
-----
Sesshomaru took out tokijin and slashed at the stones on the floor, crackin them.
The others started to do the same.
When a large circle was cut out, he motioned them back and took out tetsuaiga.
He slashed into the dirt, carving a hole in the ceiling of the chamber below.
He and Inuyasha and blood and Joslin jumped in.
--------
Joslin landed hard, he was bombarded with a blast of familiar miko power.
"Kagome!" he screamed, catching sight of the woman on the floor.
"Rin!" he heard sesshomaru say.
Kouga beat him to Kagome, kneeling over her.
Kouga had her in his arms in moments.
----
"Kouga! Get Kagome and Rin out of here NOW!" Inuyasha and Sesshomaru screamed at the wolf demon.
Then they both turned on Kikyou.
Inuyasha's eyes held only hatred for the dead witch.
"You hurt kagome." Inuyasha said, his voice and face errily calm.
"Inuyasha! Come to hell with me! You promised!" Kikyou screamed.
