Hello! I know I've jumped this story all over the place, but it can't be
helped! Ok, I apologize for the last chapter; Like I said, You could have
completely skipped it and I would've been happy. If you took my advice and
skipped it, then here's a quick recap: Inuyasha marked Kagome, which was
extremely erotic to both parties. They didn't realize that Someone was
spying on them, and Kagome said she would be Inuyasha's mate once Naraku
was dead.
Oh, and I will never own Inuyasha. Darnit.
Ok, I had no reveiwers for the last chapter; my guess is that everyone skipped it. That's perfectly O.K. So, here's chapter 5! This is where it starts getting good....
Chapter 5: Life Sucks for a Corpse
She hated her. So much.
She wanted her dead. Deader than she was. Inuyasha was hers. No reincarnation would take him away from her! She could go to hell with him, and be together there forever with him. It didn't matter to her that her soul wasn't there. Wasn't important that if he were to go to hell, he would only be met with the dissapointment that only her body was there, because her soul was walking around on earth as Kagome.
Kagome would die. Inuyasha was hers. No little bitch like her would take him away. The tenderness, the love he showed her, was unbearable. He had never even considered marking her. Kikyou was beyond jealous. She was thoroughly pissed with the half-demon and his miko bitch. If Kagome were to die, The soul would return to Kikyo, and she would no longer need to remain filled up with souls.
She would still be clay and mud, but she would be alive. Her own person. Even if it was as a statue. She could have Inuyasha, and they could live together on this world for this lifetime; she would exist in Kagome's place. Kagome couldn't win. Not while she was around. She would kill her herself. And no one would stop her.
Kikyou stood up from her hiding spot in the bushes, she glanced around one more time, her cold, nuetral expression in place. What Inuyasha had Done stung her to the core. He would pay. Dearly.
The part of Kagome's soul that Kikyou possessed was the only part of the soul that was able to hate. Which is why it kept Kikyou alive so well, it never left her clay body, this piece of the soul thrived on her hate for Inuyasha. This was also the reason Kagome couldn't hate him. Kikyou had the peice of her soul that allowed her to hate.
Kikyou had suffered in hell because she had gone with so much hate and confusion in her heart. Unable to pass into the gate of a more happy place, the gods had been kind enough to reincarnate her, recognizing the fact she had been a very good, kind person up until she died. Besides, they wanted her back on earth. She had been a good influence on mankind.
Until the day Naraku tricked her and Inuyasha. She had been consumed with hatred, with mistrust and confusion on that day. She now loathed the day she met Inuyasha. Clenching her fists at her sides, lowering her head so her bangs covered her eyes, her frail frame shook. She was laughing. A cruel, sadistic, grating that rung through the clearing. He would pay. Her mouth twisted into a icy smile. That miko bitch would die too. She swore it.
Deftly she raised her hand, and her soul stealers came to her. Lifting her up, she whispered one name to tell them where to go.
"Naraku." Just like that, they flew away.
Naraku's fortress
Kagura glared at the woman in the sky. Kikyou said that she hated her master, Naraku, as well, yet seemed to willingly consort with him. She could defy him without much pain. Kagura could be brought to her knees by him whenever she defied him. ' Someday I will kill him.' Scowling at Kikyou, she turned to inform her bastard master that she was here.
Kikyou's nuetral face glanced over Kagura carelessly. This woman, Kagura, was a strong, independent person, but couldn't be the person she wanted to be. Kikyou had sympathy for the woman, but would never show. Caring about anyone had never gotten her anywhere, now had it? Brushing past the wind sorceress, she made her way to Naraku's room.
"He's not taking visitors right now, miko." Kagura's cool voice stopped her.
Sparing a glance over her shoulder, She bluntly stated: "He will." and continued on her way.
Kagura scowled at the woman's retreating figure. Turning, she saw Kanna standing beside her.
"That woman's soul is not hers." The small, albino girl said quietly.
Kagura looked at her with interest. "Then how can she be alive?"
Kanna shrugged and pulled out her mirror. "It belongs to this girl..." A picture of Kagome swirled in the mirror.
Kagura looked surprised. "That girl, her soul leaked out of your mirror, did it not?"
"Yes..."
"And it went back to her body, didn't it?"
"Yes.."
"Then how did that dead Miko end up with it?"
"She only has a piece of it." Putting her mirror away, she vanished.
Kagura's mind was reeling. 'Perhaps this Kagome girl is more powerful than we imagined...which would explain Naraku trying to kill her off before Inuyasha, perhaps I would be wise to enlist her help in defeating my master.....' Subconsiously she touched the place where her heart had once been. ' He must die...' Turning, she went to the room she stayed in. She didn't consider this place a home.
A home was a place you loved. Not where you felt like a prisoner in your own room.
Kagura ached for a home. A place to build a loving family, a place where she could finally be herself. She wanted it so badly she could taste it. She hated being Naraku's. He would die.
Kikyou
The dead miko strode forward confidently, pushing the curtain to Naraku's room aside easily. Her nuetral mask in place, she walked into his chambers arrogantly.
"Get out." Naraku's cold voice warned from his place in the corner. His eyes blazed at her icily. He didn't want anyone here right now; especially her. This woman had come to consume his every thought; and it was because of his wretched human heart.
"Come now, Onigumo, is that any way to treat one of your accomplices?" She taunted him. He hated it when she did that. He knew he had no real control over her. He hated it that she wasn't his to command. And he hated the fact that she could piss him off with out a drop of punishment. He would kill her when he got rid of his wretched human heart.
Kikyou's lips curved into a sarcastic smile. She knew just how to taunt him to drive him mad. She knew he hated her for it. And she could honestly say she didn't give a damn. He would die right after that Miko bitch Kagome and Inuyasha. This was her murderer; it just wasn't right he get away with murder, especially hers, now was it?
He graced her with his most stony expression, his eyes narrowed to slits. He couldn't think of a icy comment to greet her with other than a simple question: "What do you want, Kikyou?"
Her eerie, sardonic smile in place, she settled herself across from Naraku, in a shaft of sunlight that filtered through the black room. Her smile fell as swiftly as it had arose, leaving her with her normal, nuetral mask.
She cut mercilicly to the chase. "I want your assistance in killing Inuyasha's miko bitch, Kagome, my reincarnation, in order to get my soul back. In return, I will give you the Shikon Jewel if you destroy Inuyasha."
Naraku looked at her; her expression hadn't changed at all. She sounded like she was planning out a dinner. Eying her suspiciously, he Asked a simple question. "Why?"
Kikyou spared him an icy glare. "Because, even with my own Miko powers, I cannot kill Inuyasha alone. I desire him dead with my very being, yet he is too strong for me to kill. He now refuses to go to hell with me because of that wench Kagome. You have the means by which to kill him. Do as you please, Naraku."
The only thing that gave away his surprise was the slight widening of his black eyes. Once again regaining his composure, he stood up. "I will honor your request, Kikyou. I must say it is an offer I cannot refuse."
s Ok, rip off from the godfather in that last line. Don't hate me for the corniness of some of the material! cowers Ok, and I will now be accepting flames with a smile and a mallet. But really, if you must flame, do it constructively! Tell me WHY you hated it! Sheesh! But I love compliments, they make me happy...big smile and bubbles appear in the background R&R! Thanks! ttfn
