Chapter Eight

Kagome plundered to the ground and drunk in the cool air and felt it flood her lungs. She then saw Inuyasha who was in battle mode. When he flipped out of the demons bite Kagome saw purple streaks along his cheeks. No! He's full demon! Great. Inuyasha swiped carelessly at the demons back. Feeling that it was going to lose, the demon grabbed Inuyasha at the arm and hurled him backwards. He hit a tree and the ghastly sound of braking bones was heard. Inuyasha walked out of the forest. His arms and legs were deeply cut and the blood showed little sign of letting up. Inuyasha smirked and wiped the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth. He's going to keep killing till he winds up dead somewhere! Kagome's mind cried. Charging at the spider Inuyasha leaped up at the spiders face so that all of the eyes were upon him. Inuyasha gave a short laugh and then plunged his sharpened claws into the spider's eyes. It gave an ear-piercing cry and Inuyasha swiped his claws across its neck, severing its head, which landed on the ground with a thud, blood pouring from where there was no longer a body. The torso too went limp and collapsed but not before giving a final twitch or two. Inuyasha looked at his claws and grinned. Then he came to where Kagome was shuddering.

I'd give anything to give me to you
Can you forget the world that you thought you knew
If you want me,
Come and find me
Nothing's stopping you so please release me

Kagome gave a cry of horror; Inuyasha picked her up by the arm and hauled her to her feet. Kagome's ankle though, would not have it and gave out under her; she gave a cry of surprise only to be caught by the demon himself. Why is he not killing me? Why isn't he off looking for more people to kill? Kagome didn't understand what was happening. Inuyasha cradled her in his arms and took off into the forest, running at the full peak of his speed. Great, he's gunna kill me in some remote location. Kagome could hear Inuyasha's heart beating very fast and she looked up at the wound on his chest. Blood was pouring from it but he showed no attention to it. I have to bandage that up, or its gunna get infected. Wait a minuet, I'm thinking like Kagome! No more Kagome! I'm supposed to be Kikyou! I have to act like her, no matter how much it hurts my friends or Inuyasha. As soon as this thing is sorted out I have to be mean again. Cruel, dismissive and self centered All of a sudden he stopped at a small creek. Kagome glanced upward. He was still full demon. All this of Inuyasha being demon and not killing was making her head spin. He gently set her down and he sat down near the creek's cooling refuge. Kagome limped near a tree and stared at him. He scrubbed his hands. When he yanked them out he gave a growl, then plunged them back in again. The blood was beginning to bother his senses. Only the smell wouldn't dissipate.

I'll believe
all your lies
just pretend you love me
Make believe
close your eyes
I'll be anything for you

Kagome sat inside herself and thought. She had nothing to bandage those wounds. Time passed awkwardly before Inuyasha spoke.

"Stay here I'll be right back," his voice was deeper; he left her and ran into the forest. Kagome tried to stand but she winced as pressure was applied. She let out a tired sigh and once again became absorbed in herself, thoughts drifted incoherently around her mind. So he's gunna leave me here. I can't walk so I'll starve, or a demon will come and finish me off. Great. I'll be mauled by a demon. That'll make a great ending. Owww...damn this ankle, it hurts so much. Damn that spider demon thing! I hope my death comes fast and is painless. In her mind she could be Kagome right? No one would find her in there, she was free to be and think like Kagome, no one would stop her! If only it hadn't come to this, five days had passed since Inuyasha had made that comment to her, that same comment that had led her to choose this path, the very same comment that ruined her spirit.

Nothing left to make me feel anymore,
there's only you and everyday I need more

Soon she felt that soft patter of teardrops and she looked up. The sky was crying. Kagome shivered and sighed. He wasn't coming back.

If you want me
come and find me
I'll do anything you say just tell me

Kagome rubbed her arms in a failed attempt to stay warm. Crawling on all fours she made her way to the creek and sat cross-legged and stared at the water. Soft pelts of rain disrupted her reflection and caused ripples to form. She was staring so intently at herself that she didn't hear the footsteps behind her or the arm reach out to her shoulder.
