Chapter 4: When does this Nightmare end?

Inuyasha woke up, fully clothed, and really out of it. Though he did notice that the sky was still dark. "Ka..gome?" His eyes shot open. "KAGOME!" He jumped up feeling a bit sideways but still continued forward, for Kagome was in trouble. He ran to the door not noticing the chain didn't bind him. He slide open the door, ran down the hallway, and onto the grounds. He looked around everywhere. He couldn't smell any sent whatsoever; the fucking incense screwed up his sense of smell. He started to hear the wake of water, as though water was shifting in something. He walked over to it, finding Kagome, submerged with only her head above the murky water. Her hands were tied together over her chest, not to mention she was completely naked. Inuyasha quickly turned his head away blushing. "I'm sorry, I didn't know uhh, here." He took off his fire rat coat and extended his arm so she could take it.

But wait a second, she's not yelling at him.

He slowly turned his head back to look at her, determined not to let his eyes wonder. Her eyes were closed and her face was so pale. He moved toward her and lifted her out. He took his fire rat coat and laid it over and around her. She was so cool to the touch.

The eyes are the windows to the soul and that is true for humans and any being on this earth, human, demon, or in this case, half and half. His eyes looked in as though he were shock, disbelief, and determined not to believe what he could be seeing.

He shock her a bit, "Kagome, it's me, everything is okay now. Wake up..." Nothing. His ears went down a bit. Though, he smiled as though she where playing a joke and said in a little jokingly voice, "Come on, stop playing tricks, wake up..." His eyes started to water. "Come on, wake up, Kagome, please, wake up." Shaking her a little each time. He closed his eyes tightly, shook his head slowly back and forth, and pulled her closely into his chest. This time he started to shake.

Some metal hit the stone next to him. He jumped and took notice of it. It was Kagome's locket she had giving to him some time ago. He took it between his fingers and opened it up with his thumb, there were to angry faces inside, from the photo booth Kagome shaved them in to avoid the publics eye. She came pack with the little pictures, cut them and put them in this locket. She gave it to him, though just a couple of days ago, Kiede asked to see it. He totally forgot about it since Shippou had stolen his roman.

She must have given it back to Kagome to give to him. He clenched it tight in his hands and wrapped his arms around her.

--Meanwhile--

"So what do we do now, Sango?"
"All we can do know is wait for Miroku to recover..." She herself, not knowing if he would make a full recovery. The little fox demon looked up at Sango with those innocent eyes. He felt something inside of himself that he couldn't explain. Like when his father had died, but this was somehow different.
"Sango, do you think the other's are okay?"
"I think they will be okay, it is Inuyasha after all. He would do anything to protect Kagome. So they could be on their way back." Shippou wanted to say something, but he didn't want Sango to be worried more then she already was. She was still recovering after all. "Oh look a shooting star!" She pointed it out to Shippou. It only lasted for about 30 seconds. She put her hands together and wished on it.
"Umm Sango what are you doing?"
"You know, making a wish, just like Kagome does."
"Ohh now I remember! Why does she do that again?"

Flash back

"Kagome, what do you get out of the light in the sky?"
"That's right you don't know do you? It's called a shooting star and it's rare to see one in my era. So people think it brings you luck and when you see one you wish for something that is deep in your heart."
"What do you wish for?"
"It wouldn't come true if I told you what I wished for, sorry Sango."

"Oh I get it," he said allowed and mentally thought, 'Though, not completely'.
There was silence between them for a little bit.
"Sango! Miroku is asking for you." Kaede pushed the covering to the hut so she could run in. She kneeled on the floor next to him.
"Sango..?" He had a weak voice.
"Yes, I am here Miroku." Her voice sounded like an angels to him.
"Kagome...she..." He took a deep breath. Both Shippou and Sango looked at each other, confused.
"Miroku, rest for a bit, you be better by morning."
"No... Kagome is in... trouble...I saw her, she was holding Inuyasha. She was sad."
Kaede looked at him with shock, "Miroku, tell me now, did she say anything to you?" He shook his head no, which was a big mistake on his part. He started to feel nauseous.
Sango looked up at Kaede, "What does that mean?"
"She's been separated from her body. Miroku did you see anyone else?"
"I was looking down... I saw Sango and I in the hut..."
Kaede looked grim...

------

Inuyasha heard the sound of breath in his ear. He loosed up on Kagome and looked at her. She wasn't completely dead. The he remembered the time when Kikyo was resurrected. He looked around and picked Kagome up in his arms.
"Going somewhere?"
"Kikyo."
"Put her down. You have me now." He pulled something out of his sleeve that glowed red. She aimed it at him. Needless to say, he couldn't avoid it. She whipped him in his cheek.
She tied him up and yelled for Sesshomaru to bring the incense.
