Chapter 2: Those behind all of this

'Kagome…why don't I cense you anywhere…?'
Inuyasha was in deep thought. He was sitting Indian style on the floor, his hands within his sleeves. He heard the shuffling of footsteps, on the wooden floor. He reverted his eyes to where the sound was coming from.
Soul collectors bellowed into the room gracefully.
Kikiyo looked down at Inuyasha and burst out laughing. "The almighty half-demon has on a little dog collar." Inuyasha glared as he watched Kikiyo lose all composure. He was bound by a chain-linked leash that was connected with an iron spike. The spike had been driven into the floor in the middle of the room. He gave up trying to free himself. He found out the hard way that Kikiyo had put a similar spell on the collar, leash, and the spike, which the necklace thing Kiede had thrown on him after he had been freed by Kagome. You know the one that would make his face smack into the ground every time Kagome said the dreaded word, "Owsuri!" (AN: For those who don't have a clue what the word means. In English: sit. Sorry for the interruption.) I think you get the point.
"Where is Kagome?" He carefully put effuses on each word.
"You think we would have let her die so easily? No. We are going to put her death into good use." Kikiyo walked over to Inuyasha and fell gracefully to her knees in front of him, and embraced him. "How I longed for the time when we would be together. I remembered the promise all this time." Inuyasha's eyes shot wide open. She didn't mean the one when he said that he wanted to be with her forever…
"Get off me Kikiyo! I no longer care for you the way I did. All you are is ash, bones, and clay, nothing more then a wondering soul that isn't even complete." Even though he hesitated with these words, not really believing in them himself, she smacked him anyway.
"HOW DARE YOU!! After all this crap I've been through! You will see!" She shot up, walked out and slammed the door behind her.
"So I take it your little chat with my half-brother wasn't as good as you had hoped." Sesshomaru was standing casually in the shadows with his back against the wall. "It's all ready for you." She threw him a heart shaped locket. "Give that as a good-bye present from his sweet little Kagome."
She walked on - out onto the garden grounds of the castle.
Kagome was laid carefully down in the tub of herbs. When Kikiyo walked up the two stone steps, and then let a pedal of a flower fall from her hand fall gracefully down onto the green murky water, it glowed. Light shot up in different directions. The last words uttered out of Kagome's mouth where… "Inu…ya…..sha."

All that was heard was a drop of water.

Inuyasha snapped his head toward the window. "Kagome-?"
"-No longer exists." Inuyasha slowly turned his head toward the direction Sesshomaru's cold voice came from. "Rin. Close the door."
