Melancholy

Kagome blinked sleepily as she awoken from her deep sleeping. Grimacing as the pangs of hunger let her know that she still hasn't eaten in about two days, she looked over at a nearby rock. Three gashes were in it, letting her know she had been here for three days, and still no InuYasha. Where was he? Why wasn't she in his arms, letting him know that she was sorry for yelling at him like she did? Was it because she told him that she hated him? Was it because she blocked him away for so long he doesn't even care anymore? She pulled her legs to her chest and sunk her face deep in them.
I'm such an idiot. She looked up as she felt the barrier weaken, then strengthen again, and she stared at the cold glare of a neko youkai. Being introduced to her before, Eriko placed a bowl of stew in front of Kagome, and without a word, turned and walked out. Kagome waited until she left, before peering at the bowl. She didn't trust these people. Would she rather starve to death, or be killed? Sticking her finger into the stew, she brought it out and licked her finger carefully.
It's . . . Good? She picked up the bowl and slowly began sipping on the rim. She had been here so long that she wondered if anybody was looking for her. Staring into the distance, she watched as the sun began to set. How long had she been sleep? She didn't understand it. Everything wasn't adding up. But, she felt sleep nagging at her eyes, and she laid down and fell asleep.
Yoko watched her from the balcony just above the dark energy barrier. She doesn't realize where she is. . . Everything she's seeing . . . It's not really there.
They kidnapped Kagome and brought her into a rundown building in a part of Tokyo where youkai reigned supreme. In the basement of the building, she was in a dark energy barrier, floating curled into a fetal position with her knees pressed tightly to her chest, her ears pressed down, and her eyes shut tightly. It was only a matter of time before everything in her hallucination would begin to fall apart, and she would be tortured to the point where her miko energy would surge, thus giving Yoko the power she needed to achieve her ultimate goal.
Aneko stood by her, watching the young miko move slightly. "When do we begin?"
Yoko didn't say anything for a long while. "Now." She turned and walked out. Aneko said nothing as her eyes turned red and her youki crackled with a purplish light.
Kagome . . . She called. Kagome opened her eyes and looked around. Kagome . . . The voice called out again.
Kagome looked around. "Who's there?"
"He's not coming. Stop thinking he would come. He's not coming." The voice chanted.
"No. . . ." Kagome held her head in her hands. "No!" Kagome opened her mouth to say something, but the only thing that left her lips were bubbles as the barrier filled with water. Kagome felt her precious energy draining, and she opened her eyes to see it forming a ball of energy across the room, that Aneko went over to and smiled at.
"That's it." Aneko said with a hiss. "Give me your energy . . . " She glared at the pinkish energy with a glow in her eyes.
Eriko walked into the room, and glared at the ball of energy, which Aneko was staring at lovingly. "Aneko. InuYasha is searching for her. May I break him?" Aneko didn't look at her sister.
"Do as you wish."

InuYasha stopped abruptly as he landed in the clearing. This was the third time he came here today. Everyday he checked here. His senses nagged at him that he needed to be here, but he didn't know why. Suddenly, Kagome appeared in front of him. Holding out her hands, she walked over to him. "InuYasha . . . "
InuYasha stepped back. "Don't touch me."
Kagome's face broke into a brokenhearted scowl. "W-What?" The emotion in her voice was too real, the look on her face to sincere, the way she looked too alluring, but . . . He didn't smell her. Kagome held a scent that was in his mind forever, yet he couldn't smell her, or anything.
"Your n-not Kagome." He stammered as he felt his demon blood surge. It was then he realized she didn't have any clothes on. He gasped and tried to leave, but his legs wouldn't move. He felt his control slipping away. Something wasn't right. He growled menacingly as she neared closer to him. She giggled.
"Ohhh . . . The little puppy sounds so cute." She waved her 'tail' excitedly. He knew something about this, 'Kagome'. It his hanyou nagged at him, cursing him, but his youkai, being the hentai that it was, really didn't give a damn at the moment. He cursed himself inwardly.
Kagome gasped as she saw the scene play before her eyes.
InuYasha choked back a scream as 'Kagome' placed her lips on his.
She's . . . She's kissing him . . .
'Kagome' grabbed InuYasha by the shoulders as she pushed him onto the floor, teasing him with her tongue and lips as she removed his haori. InuYasha whimpered in the kiss as her cold fingers trailed up and down his chest.
Get off of him . . .
Running her fingers up and down his waistline as she broke the kiss and trailed kisses down his stomach and chest, he shuddered as he opened his mouth to say something, and found himself wordless. . .
She better not . . . No . . . Kagome could feel her heart breaking as she watched the neko using her hands to pleasure InuYasha. He raised his hips like it was the last thing he could do, as Kagome felt her heart breaking, and felt unconciousness nagging at her senses.
InuYasha opened his mouth to say something .
Don't say it . . Please . . . InuYasha, you can't . . . You won't
Flipping them both over, InuYasha trailed kisses down her throat and jaw. "Mine . . ." He growled.
Kagome's eyes flashed open as her miko energy turned black. Eyes filled with no emotion, her ears flattened down on her head as her energy drained from her body like lightening. Eriko transformed back into a neko, and growled at InuYasha.
"It is done." She said before she faded away.
InuYasha lay unconscious on the floor. He was running. He didn't know to what, or to who, but he was running to something. Holding out his hand, he saw a little girl laying on the floor. Running to her, he reached out to touch her, but suddenly a forcefield propelled him back, and she began to levitate off of the floor.
"K-Kagome?" InuYasha stared on. "Kagome!" He felt around for Tetsusaiga. It's . . . It's gone!
"No. . . "
A little girl was screaming. InuYasha felt water on his feet, and he looked down. He saw Kagome, crying . . . Thinking about him. All those times, he was the reason she always cried. "No . . ."
"Kagome!" He screamed. "I'm right here. I'm right here with you. . ."
"Who are you? Where am I . . ."
InuYasha tried to take a walk closer, but he could see the little girl fading away from him. Caught between the fear of losing her, and the fear of knowing he was the reason she could fade away into nothing, he watched as two yellow eyes appeared from behind her.
"There's nothing you can do . . . She has lost control of the darkness in her heart . . . You two will never be together again . . ."
InuYasha eyes snapped open as he sat up. Feeling his head pounding, he didn't even bother to put his shirt back on as he began running. He didn't know where he was going, but he was running. Through the city he ran on, through the parks, landfills, and school playgrounds he ran on. No sign of Kagome.
"InuYasha . . ."
He ran until his feet began bleeding and turned beet red. Ran until his legs felt as if they were going to crack and fall off. He ran until it was hard to breath, ran until he covered every last part of Tokyo.
"InuYasha . . ."
If he gave up, he would never see Kagome again. He had to apologize to her, had to tell her that he was sorry for all the pain he caused her. To know that because of him, she was in risk of being away from him forever, he found himself in front of the hospital. "Here . . . Who's calling me? I hear my name . . . Who is it?"
"InuYasha . . . Come to me . . . " He followed the voice up the stairs. He followed it to the last room on the hall. Opening the door, the scent was familiar to him, and he rushed to her side.
"Yutamiki . . . It was you . . . "
"InuYasha . . . I can help her. Take me to her."
"I can't . . . " He said sadly. "I can't find her . . . It's all over . . ."
"I will find her. We both will . . . Take me to her. "

Tsukiko snapped her eyes open as Sesshomaru awoke abruptly and walked over to the window. Grimacing as the sunset turned black, and the sky was painted red, she turned to her husband. "What's going on?"
"It has begun. Kagome has been tainted. The world will come to an end, if she can't regain control of the darkness that has been building up for so many years." Tsukiko stood up, and grimaced. Sesshomaru ran to her side.
"I want to see her. We have to help her."
Sesshomaru shook his head as he sat her back down on the bed. "There is nothing we can do. There is no helping her. It's all over."
Tsukiko growled. "That is your sister. You have to believe in her, and we can't help her if we are not there!" Sesshomaru looked at Tsukiko.
Too weak to move, to sick to do anything, yet she was willing to end up in the hospital again to help those in need, she never failed to amaze him. Placing a kiss on her forehead, he gazed at her for a moment. "Are you sure you want to do this?" She nodded her head.
"Yes. I want to help her. We have to try." Her eyes filled with tears. "Please Sesshomaru. We have to try."
Sighing, and against his better judgement, he picked her up, kicked open the window, and hopped out of the hotel room, flying across the skies of outer Tokyo. Looking around, he wrapped mokomoko-sama around Tsukiko as she shivered. She thanked his silently as they entered Tokyo once more.
Landing on a nearby building, Sesshomaru looked around. Tsukiko lifted up her head, and pointed to the west. "Over there."
"What?"
"Over there. She's over there."
Sesshomaru looked on, and could feel the power of dark energies surging. It was no doubt, Kagome was there, but he could also feel the energy of another approaching. A dying energy that he didn't understand. Looking off into the distance, he took of as Tsukiko began tugging at his shirt.
"Sesshomaru, if there is no way to save her, Yoko . . . you must slay her."
Sesshomaru said nothing as he sped up a little bit. Nodding his head, he closed his eyes sadly. "I know." He didn't want to, but there was no choice.
She had gone crazy by losing the love of her life, and after 500 years, she finally snapped. It was either her, or Tsukiko. If he could save her, he would. He tightened his hold on Tsukiko. But, she has commited the ultimate crime against all youkai. There is no saving her. She has to die.

Sango frowned as she held her new baby girl in her arms. Miroku grimaced and looked out the hospital window, watched as the sun turned black and the sky was painted red. "It has begun . . ." He whispered. Sango watched as she breastfed her baby. Frowning, she held onto Miroku's hand with her free hand.
"Is Kagome alright? I can't shake the feeling she needs us right now."
Miroku sighed. "The best we can do is believe her, and if anything is wrong, than we must believe her and InuYasha can work it out." Looking down at his baby girl, he looked over in the stroller as Kazuyu awoken. Walking over to Kazuyu, he picked him up and sat him on the edge of the bed. "This is your baby sister. Kaz. Your mother named her Taura." Kazuyu reached over and touched her on her head softly. Smiling, he turned and looked out the window as his face twisted into a scowl.
Sango stared for a moment as she followed Kazuyu's gaze. Outside of her window, stood Sesshomaru and Tsukiko. Gasping, Miroku walked over to the window. Looking at Sesshomaru, he frowned. "She needs us. Any room?"
Moments later, Kazuyu sat in Tsukiko's arms as Miroku stood next to Miroku with Sango and Taura in his arms. They flew to an old abandoned building just as InuYasha landed there.
"Baby brother." Sesshomaru called as he landed. InuYasha looked at everyone with sad eyes.
"Are we too late?" Asked Sango. InuYasha shrugged as he looked at the bulding.
"I don't know, but he have to hurry. Looking at Yutamiki, he instructed for her to stay back with Miroku. "You stay with the kids. Sesshomaru and I will fight our way through."
