A/N: I FINALLY GOT 100 REVIEWS! I'm so happy! Thank you all! ::hugs all reviewers:: ok, anyway, someone asked me how the whole battle with Kikyo took place in the tiny hospital room, but in reality, or actually un-reality, the hospital room was larger that normal ones, much larger. And since Inutaisho is paying for it (he's rich, I mean, he used to be a lord, right?) he could afford this really extensive room, with sound-proof walls (don't ask, I'm on a big sugar high right now) so that's how no one heard the blasts, when Kikyo tried to kill everyone…stupid whore…sry, sudden outburst. No, I really do think she's a whore. Ok, on with the story.



Kagome felt a pulsing in her head. She knew the jewel was close by, though it was well hidden with spells and scrolls. Curse Kikyo having spiritual powers. This whole thing wouldn't have happened if she was just an ordinary cousin.

Sesshomaru could sense her annoyance. He really hoped it wasn't directed at him, especially since he hadn't apologized yet for what had happened when they woke up. Trust her to hold a grudge over something so stupid.

Suddenly Kagome felt it. "DOWN THERE!" she shouted, to excited and anxious to remember that Sesshomaru could hear her slightest whisper. She heard his grumbling, but chose to ignore it. She pointed at a cliff that was below them. They had flown out of the city some time ago, following Kagome's instincts. The sun was starting to set, and they knew they had very little time left with the sunlight.

Sesshomaru slowly descended, wondering where Kikyo could have been hiding out. As more of the side of the cliff became visible, they saw it. A large opening, approximately 20 feet in height and 30 in width. They both gaped at the hole, astounded that Kikyo would choose such an obvious hiding place, made even more evident by the glowing barrier that surrounded the place.

They landed on the ground, and tried to calculate the best possible approach, even though there was no way they would not be detected by Kikyo and her minions.

"Well, first we need to bring down that barrier. That shouldn't be much of a problem, I've got my arrows with me."

"But we will be immediately detected, and could very well fall into a trap."

"Look, there's no other way into the freaking thing, and they will detect us anyway, considering that Kikyo can sense demons."

"We need to find the best possible route to save my family."

"We're not getting anywhere with all this arguing. Lets just go in, and hope for the best."

"But if we do, we risk our own lives, as well as Inuyasha and My fathers."

"Wait…wasn't there a new moon that night?"

"yes, I believe so…"

"If there was in fact a new moon that night, then Inuyasha would be human, wouldn't he?"

Sesshomaru gasped. He remembered how when they had fought his brother, he had been in his Hanyou state. He had not even attempted to use his sword, which was his best defense. This could be good or bad, either way, it gave him more hope than he had to begin with.

"Lets go." He said, bending down so that Kagome could climb on his back.
"Well looks who's talking mister 'Lets find the best possible route.' I knew you would eventually see that I was right."

"Don't get so big-headed, we still will most likely fall into a trap. By the way, Save your arrows, they are one of our best defenses."

Kagome nodded and climbed on his back. She was full of a mixture of emotions. Happy because they were so close to saving Inuyasha, yet angry at Kikyo for this whole thing, along with many others she couldn't place. Sesshomaru jumped and landed gracefully on the ledge, then let Kagome down off his back. Kagome got an arrow out, and shot it towards the barrier, and watched in anger and frustration when it went dead as soon as it touched the barrier.

Meanwhile…

Kikyo sat back and relaxed. Sesshomaru and Kagome were still outside the barrier, and it didn't look to her like they would be coming in anytime soon.

"Thank you Kanna, that will do."

Kikyo dismissed Kanna, and watched as the white-clad figure disappeared in the darkness of the hall. Well, one good thing about having a father such as Naraku, I get to control all of his minions now, and they do come in handy. She smirked and called for Kagura.

"Kagura, I want you to greet our guests once they get through the barrier."

Kagura glared at Kikyo, her new master. She had hoped that after the death of Naraku, she would be free to do as she pleased. But it was not so. Kikyo knew of her powers, and how Naraku had controlled her, therefore putting her under the same bonds that Naraku had placed on her. Angered though she was, she knew she must obey. Bowing painfully before Kikyo, she left through another corridor that led to the front of the cave. She sad on the ground and waited for their enemies to break through the barrier.

A/N: I'm half asleep right now, even though its only like, 11:00. Sad, isn't it? I tried to make this chapter kinda long, to make up for my lack of updating (I swear to god, my writers block picks the worst times to kick in. Maybe I have Obsessive compulsive with writers block…is that even possible? LOL) Actually, this chapter is about as long as the other ones... whatever. Well, I hope you liked this chapter, please review. I think I'm more tired then I thought, I just forgot what a review was…that's bad. I better go, before I fall asleep on this very keyboaru5hs434ln,eki…
