Chapter Four- Soul Encounter: InuYasha vs. Kagome!

I'd been walking along with Jaken for two days, and there'd been no sign of a village. We'd stopped for the night, and I had spotted Kikyo's Soul Collectors. "Wait here." I ordered Jaken, and before he could protest I had mounted Kirara in one graceful move and taken off. I saw a flash of blue light and motioned for Kirara to land. I saw HIM and my throat went dry.

"Inuyasha . . ." I whispered. "How dare you come back and show your face!"

"Kagome, I'm sorry, I-"he began.

"I am not Kagome." I said coldly. "I am not Kagome to you anymore. I am Midoriko Kagome, reincarnation to the legendary priestess, Lady Midoriko." I sent two comets of fire towards him, and he dodged the attack.

Normal POV

"Claws of Blood!" Inuyasha cried out, attacking Kagome and making her lose her balance and fall off the mountain. "Kagome!" he screamed, and ran to the edge. She was holding on to a root that stuck out of the mountainside. Inuyasha tried to pull her up, but Kagome growled and pushed his hand away, causing her to slip further down the cliff.

Kagome used her miko powers to send pink balls of light towards Inuyasha, knocking him off his feet. She climbed a bit, but he came back, his eyes red. "Bitch!" he hollered, his stomach had a deep gash. She growled again and with the agility that comes with years of training, jumped gracefully back to the top. She picked up her bow; it was right where she had dropped it. Kagome aimed a sacred arrow at his chest, but then felt something pierce her arm. Inuyasha took the opportunity to knock the bow out of her hands and ram into her. Her eyes were wide as Inuyasha pummeled her into the ground.

"Kikyo . . ." she whispered softy, she was quickly slipping into darkness when she saw Sesshoumaru attack Inuyasha. Kikyo wasted no time, and aimed again at Sesshoumaru's chest but Kagome was already there. She kicked the bow away, and punched Kikyou to the ground. She took out her trusted sword, the DoreiYoukaiTokio, and held in at her throat. "Don't move, Inuyasha!" she screamed, and he stopped in dead tracks. Kikyo was scared, Kagome could sense it. "Move and she dies!" she held the sword tighter against her throat, and a tiny drop of blood ran down her neck.

He lowered his head in defeat. "Tessusaiga . . . for the human." Sesshoumaru said calmly, watching his half-brother's expression. He was enraged. He growled, his fangs showing and threw the katana to the demon's feet. Sesshoumaru quickly picked it up, and Kagome let her hold on Kikyo down. Kikyo ran towards Inuyasha, and they both disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Sesshoumaru examined it closely. "This is not Tessusaiga." He said, his anger growing.

"Looks like Inuyasha tricked you, Sesshoumaru-Sama." Kagome replied, pulling her waist-length raven hair into a high ponytail. "I sensed something strange about the sword." She said, putting her sword back into its hilt. "Mikos have the power to duplicate objects. Only highly trained mikos can create the EXACT replica." She limped towards her bow and examined it. "It's broken." She sighed, and threw the now useless bow back onto the ground. "No Tessusaiga, but look at this." She grinned, as she showed Sesshoumaru a quarter of the jewel. He looked at her, amazed. "I had to get something from Kikyo." she replied. "She was human." he stated, and Kagome nodded. "They must have used the jewel to turn her into a human, Sesshoumaru-Sama. Then, of course, it could all be just a trick."

"This Sesshoumaru will not be taken for a fool. He will pay dearly." Without warning, Sesshoumaru picked Kagome up bridal style and took off to his castle.

Kagome's POV

"Why did you come back, Sesshoumaru-Sama?" I asked, curious to know.

"Your fire cat demon." He replied. "It seems she can talk to other demons. You were lucky I hadn't started my journey, or you would be dead."

I looked away, knowing he was right. I could have been dead if it wasn't for him. "Thank you, Sesshoumaru-Sama." I said quietly, and I could have sworn I'd heard him whisper "You're welcome."
