Chapter 2

I Can't Kill Them

Inuyasha freed the Tetsaiga from its sheath and charged blindly after Sesshomaru. Kagome ran as fast as her legs would carry her to the nearest hill, Sango and Miroku went in the opposite direction towards the other grassy hill. When she reached the top of the hill she turned towards where the two half brothers were fighting. She hurriedly strung her bow and took out an arrow and readied herself for the chance when she would be able to help Inuyasha. Both Inuyasha and Kagome knew that then was her chance to hit Sesshomaru with her purifying arrow. She, just wasn't able to do it! 'Why doesn't she just shoot him!' Inuyasha wondered. 'I can't I, just can't Rin would be fatherless and I would feel awful because it would be all my fault. He did try to kill me on numerous accounts but Sesshomaru-sama always spared my life.' Kagome began to cry.
'Why does that mere human cry. Humans are pathetic, weak creatures.'

"You Hentai!" Sango shouted as she slapped Miroku across the face leaving a red hand print on his right cheek. " Don't you ever grope me again!" " I'm sorry Sango dear. Please forgive me?" Miroku pleaded. "Just don't ever do that again." Sango averred. "Yes, my dear." Miroku answered. "And Miroku." "Yes dear." "Stop calling me dear." Sango told the monk. "OK." Miroku sighed. Both the monk and the youkai exterminator turned their attention back to the battle. "So who do you think is winning." Miroku questioned Sango as Shippo came to halt beside her. "Hopefully Inuyasha." They both replied.

Sesshomaru and Inuyasha had been battling for a half hour now. Inuyasha attempted to unleash the wind scar but he could not find it. With the same icy look on his face Sesshomaru said "That will be all."
Sango, Miroku, Kagome and Shippo walked back to Inuyasha. Leaving their battle positions, which were located on two separate hills, hidden by a variety of exotic foliage.
"Why didn't you just shoot him while you had the chance wench?!" Inuyasha demanded. A look of uncertainty passed through Kagome's dark brown eyes. "I...I don't know. I just couldn't shoot him or Rin."
"Feh, sometimes I don't even know why I bring you along." Inuyasha mumbled under his breath. Kagome who was now standing about ten feet away from him said "You bring me along only because I can find the shards of the Shikon No Tama and I resemble Kikyo." "How did you hear that?!" Inuyasha exclaimed. "You were talking pretty loud I could easily hear you." she told him. 'But how? I was practically silent' he wondered.
