Chapter 4
"You have changed a lot too. How do you know that I have still good in me?" Kikyo wondered.
"It doesn't matter anymore what I think. I need to know something though. Why did you try to kill Kagome?" Kaede asked in concern.
"I don't know. I'm not sure but I think it's because the only reason she lives is because it perished from the earth. And it's all because of that bastard Naraku and his tricks" Kikyo became restless and then stood up. "My dear sister I'm afraid this is good-bye for now. I bet we'll see each other in the future reference" Kikyo went through the hut's door.
Kaede grinned but then became sad for her sister. Kikyo reached the other side of the door to the outside world. She looked around to see if anything changed in the village while she was dead. She then saw Shippou being chased by Kilala. She smiled and then looked around a bit more. Kikyo saw Miroku being slapped by Sango and giggled. Kikyo walked awhile until she came across Inuyasha and Kagome down by the river sitting together.
"Inuyasha please let me go back home. I have to return for my own brother's birthday you know. You may not celebrate yours or your brother's but I do. Just stop being so stubborn all the time" Kagome argued with the hanyu.
"So what if it's your brother's birthday. We have more important things to do. I hate when you go back to your own time. It gets so tiresome" Inuyasha started to yell.
"Why must you be such a jerk all the time?" Kagome stood up and Inuyasha did the same.
Kikyo couldn't help over hear their argument but stayed awhile to hear more. Kikyo was unaware of Kagome's capabilities.
"Inuyasha! SIT BOY!" Kagome screamed.
Inuyasha's prayer beads glowed and then forced him to fall to the hard ground. Inuyasha went through the ground about two inches down. Inuyasha's fingers formed into a peace sign always after when he was sat. Kikyo's eyes widened and then followed the angry girl. She followed her until she saw Kagome go through the Bone Easters Well. Kikyo walked to the well and looked inside of it. She wondered how the well became a portal between the two eras. She then got ready to jump in. She jumped right in and was transported to Kagome's era.
Kagome climbed out of the well and stormed into the house. She passed her mother in the kitchen. Her mother tried to talk to her but she just kept walking. She shook the banister on the stairs while she walked up to her room. Kagome let her body go and she landed on her made bed. Her pillows flung up when she landed on her bed. Kikyo finally reached to the other side and then climbed up as well as Kagome did. She opened the doors and was amazed for what she saw outside. She sensed the jewel shards and it led her to Kagome's home. She knocked on the sliding down and it was answered by Sota.
"Hello, who are you?" Sota asked the pail woman standing outside.
"My name is Kikyo. I'm looking for Kagome" Kikyo replied.
"Kikyo? Isn't that the woman's name Kagome said she was the reincarnation of" Sota thought to himself. "She's upstairs in her room. Let me take you to her" Sota suggested.
Sota led Kikyo upstairs and to Kagome's closed door. An angry voice came from the closed room. Sota informed Kikyo she was just behind the door. Sota quickly ran downstairs once he heard his name being called. Kikyo opened the door and found Kagome walking back and forth complaining to herself about Inuyasha. Kagome stopped and then turned her head.
"Sota go a…way? Kikyo!" Kagome screamed. "How did you get here?" Kagome asked in a surprised voice.
"I over heard you and Inuyasha's argument. I was just wondering why he doesn't like you coming to this era. You live in a time that is strange but to me it seems to be so familiar" Kikyo walked into the room.
"It should be because if you look through my window you can see the sacred tree where you pinned Inuyasha to. What's the real reason you've came here?" Kagome suspiciously thought.
"Maybe I thought that here you will die" Kikyo said as she grinned.
"No, go back to feudal Japan!" Kagome ran as fast she could down the stairs but lost her footing and tripped.
Kikyo got out an arrow and got ready to fire. She figured that since Inuyasha isn't here she could finally kill Kagome. Kikyo walked patiently down the stairs and since she can also sense Jewel shards she could follow Kagome easier. Kagome grabbed Sota and her mother and tried to get them away from danger.
"Hurry! Please get out of danger. Kikyo is dangerous. Gramps come on, you too mom and Sota" Kagome pushing them out the door.
They finally acted on their own and did what Kagome asked. By the door were her book bag and her weapon. She quickly got them and went outside to the others. Kikyo finally reached the doors and shot and arrow at Kagome. The arrow missed but did great damage to the ground. Her family stepped aside and watched the power of the purifying arrow by the use of Kikyo.
"Wow, she has powers too?" Sota said in excitement. "I bet Kagome doesn't have that kind of power. She's only a human" Sota said in victory.
Kagome took out an arrow and placed it on her bow.
"Is she crazy? She doesn't have that kind of power. What can a plan arrow do to Kikyo?" Her mother in a worried stage.
"Quiet! Let Kagome shoot the arrow" Kagome's grandpa demanded.
"Purify" Kagome shouted.
Kagome's arrow glowed and aimed for its target. The arrow made a big slit on Kikyo's cheek. Her mother and Sota watched in amazement being unaware of Kagome being a priestess. Kagome's grandpa knew she had the kind of power before she shot the arrow at Kikyo. Kikyo's eyes began to water and then she got another arrow on her bow.
Back in Feudal Japan:
Inuyasha walked to the well with rage. Shippou followed him to see what Inuyasha was doing. Inuyasha turned around and crouched down beside the little fox demon.
"Hey Shippou, do you think you can do me a favor?" Inuyasha sounded so sincere.
"Yeah, what?" Shippou jumped up and down.
"Do you think you can manage to leave me the HELL alone!" Inuyasha yelled that could be heard for miles while he hit Shippou on the head.
Inuyasha then picked up Shippou by the tail and swirled him around in a circle then threw him in the air. Shippou soon became a speck in the sky and then disappeared behind the trees. Inuyasha put one foot on the well and then stopped. He sniffed a bit and then finally recognized the sent.
"Kikyo! And her sent stopped at the well. It didn't go into another direction; it went right into the wells emptiness.
Inuyasha began to sweat in fear for that Kikyo transported to the other side of the well. He didn't hesitate to wait around and find out or not. He jumped right into the well. Shippou found himself on the top of a tree not to far from the well. He transformed and flew to the well again. He dropped to the ground and peered into the well waiting for the return of Kagome and Inuyasha. Sense Shippou is a fox and has a good nose but not as good as Inuyasha's. He too smelt the sent of Kikyo and then began to worry even more.
Back to Kagome and Kikyo:
Inuyasha reached to the other side finally and hopped out of the well. He opened both doors with both hands. Then the sun blinded him for a moment and saw the fight. Inuyasha saw Kikyo ready to release the string so he ran towards Kagome. The arrow was released and it aimed straight for Kagome. Kagome panicked and couldn't move. Inuyasha pushed Kagome and himself away with all his might. They both fell to the ground and they were forced away from the blast of the arrow.
"Thank god she wasn't hit by that arrow. Thanks to Inuyasha" Kagome's mother covered her mouth and was shaking all over.
Kikyo became agitated for Inuyasha's interference. Kikyo walked towards the two on the ground. Sota shouted a warning.
"Kagome and Inuyasha, Kikyo is coming towards her. Quickly get up" Sota warned them.
Kikyo's head turned to Sota. Her bow was all ready to shoot so she used the opportunity to shoot it. She turned her bow towards Sota and shot it. The arrow slid against Sota's arm and badly injured him. Sota fell to the ground and his face was covered in fear. Soon after that the arrow blew Kagome's family to another spot on the ground. Inuyasha seeing this he quickly got up and ran towards Kikyo. He grabbed her and ran for the well. She struggled but wasn't able to get away. He quickly opened the doors and jumped in with Kikyo on his shoulder. He knew he had to get Kikyo away before she does anything else to Kagome or her family.
