Chapter four ~ Wanted Back
"You told him not to burn your body, didn't you?" Grim asked.
"Feh! Of course I did!" Inu-Yasha told her matter-of-factly.
"So, what happened?" She wondered.
"Nothing." Inu-Yasha stated.
"Hey! Don't play that trick! When someone comes out of someone else's dream yelling that they are not a bunny rabbit, it normally means something happened." Grim crossed her arms. "So tell me. Were you a bunny rabbit?"
"Feh!"
"I'll take that as a yes." Grim smiled, "Would you like a carrot bunny wunny?"
"I am NOT a bunny rabbit."
"Well, tell me what happ-." She stopped in mid word, and grabbed her ear, "Uh, huh. . . .right. . . can do!"
"What was that about?" Inu-Yasha wondered. "Were you talking to yourself again?"
"I was NOT talking to myself! I just got a call from Death!" Grim pointed at him; "Your first test is ready! But first we have to make sure that someone actually wants you back! Follow me!"
"What do you mean to see if anyone wants me back?" Inu-Yasha asked her. "What's the point of bring somebody back if you aren't wanted?" 'Would I be wanted back?' Inu-Yasha wondered. 'I have been such a jerk to everyone. Especially Kagome. Why would they want me back? They have no reason to.'
******************************
Kagome slowly regained consciousness. She felt a pain in her head and didn't want to move. She groaned and slowly opened her eyes. She looked around; she was lying down on hard concrete. She decided to sit up and get a better look around. She pushed herself up and brushed the loose bangs out of her face.
She noticed that she was in some kind of jail cell. She looked next to her to see an unconscious Sango next to her. She walked over to her to make sure that she was okay. She shook her gently and Sango groaned and slowly opened her eyes. "Wh-where am I?" Sango asked as she sat up.
"I have no idea." Kagome told her.
"Do you know where Miroku is?" Sango asked desperately and started looking around.
Kagome shook her head. "I don't know that either."
"I am so glad that you all are so worried about me. It took you long enough to notice I was gone, and if I didn't know better, I would have said that Lady Kagome didn't even notice that I was no longer with you." They looked to the left from where the voice came from. They saw their friend lying against the bars of a separate cell right next to theirs.
"Miroku!" Sango cried happily.
"I didn't know that you would be so happy to know that I am okay." He looked up at her and smiled. Sango stepped back and then ran over to the edge of the bars and hit him on the head. "Hey! I didn't do anything this time! What was that for?"
"Sorry," She shrugged, "reflex."
Kagome had to laugh at those two. They were so cute.
"Miroku, do you know where we are?" Kagome wondered.
"I am sorry, but I do not." Miroku hung his head. "The last thing I remember was fighting Naraku."
"Me, too." Sango told her.
"Then is it possible that we are in the dungeon of Naraku's castle?" Kagome wondered. That made everyone take a good look around. It did look like a dungeon, all right. Solid concrete walls, cells, it was damp, and dark.
"It is a possibility." Miroku nodded.
"I'm so glad that you found it out. That way I wouldn't have to explain it." Naraku appeared in front of them. "You are as you guessed, in my dungeon. You will be my servants for the rest of your stay here. Which, you might have guessed, will be a long time."
"You're wrong! Inu-Yasha will come to save us!" Kagome cried.
"How can he save you?" Naraku smiled.
"He will come!" Kagome urged.
"Inu-Yasha won't come." Naraku told her.
"Yes he will!" Kagome yelled at him.
"Inu-Yasha's dead."
His smile grew as he saw Kagome's eyes grow wide in fear and Sango and Miroku's shocked faces. Kagome slumped down to her knees. "You're lying! Inu-Yasha isn't dead! He can't be!"
"Oh, but he can be, and he is."
"LYAR!" Kagome screamed at him.
"Kagome . . ." Sango came over to comfort her, but Kagome pushed her away.
"Inu-Yasha isn't dead! He isn't!"
Inu-Yasha hovered over her. Why was she so upset over him? He had always been so mean to her. He wanted more than anything to go down to her and wrap his arms around her and tell her that it was alright and that he would be back soon to come and save her from Naraku.
He tried, though. He came down to her, but when he touched her, he went straight through her. Inu-Yasha choked back tears, knowing that there was nothing he could do to comfort his heart broken friend.
"She really cares about you." Grim observed as she floated down to his side. "Now we have to let you take the tests. People really DO want you back! I have no idea why, though."
"Me neither." Inu-Yasha said under his breath and Grim's ears picked it up, but she didn't say anything.
"I will come back for you, Kagome." He looked down on her with sad eyes. She sat rocking back and forth, holding her knees to her chest. He noticed that tears were running down her cheeks.
'Could she be his. . . mate?' Grim wondered as she looked over at Inu-Yasha. He looked so sad. She felt sorry for him, he wasn't supposed to die. He was supposed to protect his mate his whole life, defeat Naraku with the help of his friends, and live a long life with his mate. She didn't look up who his mate was, she didn't think that it was important to know about who he was in love with, but now she didn't even have to look it up. She knew who it was. It was the girl under them, weeping for her lost friend.
"Kagome, I'm sorry." Inu-Yasha said quietly to her, knowing that she couldn't hear him.
Grim nearly started crying. She had seen many people leave their loved ones after they had died, but never one who wasn't supposed to be dead and supposed to down there with them fighting their enemy. She lifted up her hood; she really didn't want him to see how much this hurt the Grim Reaper. If he knew that he would just make fun of her some more.
She put her hand on his shoulder, "Hey, the sooner we get the tests over with, the sooner you can get back to her. * Sniff *"
"Right." He really didn't want to leave her, but it was the fastest way to get back to her. He looked up to her and followed her as she flew out of the castle.
"Hey, why is your hood up?" Inu-Yasha wondered all sadness out of his voice. He must be trying to hide it from her that he had a weakness for that girl.
"No reason. . . * sniff *" She answered.
"Are you crying?" He asked skeptically.
"Of course not! * Sniff * I just think it looks cool. * Sniff *"
"Right." He commented. She could tell that he didn't believe her. "Don't you dare have pity on me."
"Oh, don't worry, I don't. * Sniff *" Grim said without a quiver in her voice.
"Then what's with the crying! I am a dog demon! My ears are extremely strong! I CAN hear you!" Inu-Yasha told her, starting to get mad.
"Right, whatever you say." Grim told him.
"You do pity me! Well, you better stop it!" Inu-Yasha growled.
"Let's just get going to the test, okay?"
End of Chapter Four.
