Kagome, No More

Chapter 2

There she was, in all her radiance, his Kagome. He had no idea what was going on, because less than 24 hours ago he had been mourning her death and now, here she was alive, safe, in her room. He could do nothing but watch her as she finished getting ready and looking herself over in the mirror, with a smile and a wink. Inuyasah watched as Kagome convinced herself that she looked fine and it was time to leave for school. He watched as she went down the stairs, grabbed a piece of toast and walked out the front door and out into the street with Souta slowly following her but he did not follow them.

He felt as though he needed to go and confront Kagome's mother about what happened, and what was going on. Inuyasha jumped down from the tree and walked over to the front door. He normally would just go in instead of knocking, but for some reason he felt he would just knock this one time. After a few moments Kagome's mother finally came to the door, but she wasn't her normal smiley self. Kagome's mother looked at Inuyasha stunned as many thoughts ran through her head.

Mrs. Hisgurashi's thoughts

I looked at him oddly. Who was this young man with dog ears and what was he doing at my home? Why does he have dog ears, silver hair and golden-yellow eyes? Was he one of Kagome's or Souta's friends? Where my children on drugs? Was I on drugs? Is he part of some cult? He must have been for he wore a blood red kimono. Oh my lord, why on earth does he have a sword? Does his cult need a body sacrifice to perform some kind of ritual? More thoughts flooded my mind and I didn't know what to do, wait something was coming to mind…

"I watched as Mrs. Hisgurashi's face turned a pale white and she grabbed the thing nearest to her and hurdled it at me. Why was she doing this? She was always so nice to me when I came and saw Kagome. What had gotten into her." thought Inuyasha as a frying pan hit him right in his face.

Where it came from, Inuyasha didn't know. He jumped into the tree nearest him and decided he'd head after Kagome and Souta find out what was up with their mother. By the time he had caught up with them Kagome had already made it into her school. Souta was just rounding the corner as he jumped down in front of him. Souta gasped as the half-demon jumped out of no where.

"Goodness Inuyasha, Don't scare me like that!" said Souta clutching his heart.

"Thank God! At least you remember me, unlike your mother." Said Inuyasha crouching down to the child's height.

"I came here to tell your mother about an accident that involved Kagome, she was…" started Inuyasha but paused as his heart started to heart.

"Kagome was killed by Naraku, and was buried less than a day ago and I came here to tell her family but then I saw her in her room, and now your mother doesn't even remember me." finished Inuyasha with a sigh at the end.

"Do you know what's going on Souta?" asked Inuyasha looking at the child, shocked at what he saw.

Souta was glowing a dark purple and his eyes were clouded over with black. He started laughing, the laugh jumped straight up and down Inuyasha's spine.

"You really thought you'd destroyed me, didn't you?" said a dark, malevolent voice coming from Souta.

Inuyasha knew then that Souta was being controlled by a demon; then it hit him.

"Naraku!" spat Inuyasha coldly.

"Very smart, for a half-demon that is!" said Naraku.

"You don't have much room to talk Naraku, because you are a half-demon as well" said Inuyasha.

Naraku laughed again.

"Believe what you wish." he said looking at him.

Inuyasha couldn't stand to see souta being controlled by that poor excuse of a demon. He began to draw his Tetsusaiga but stopped when Naraku put his hand up to stop him.

"You may not want to do that, because the only way you can get my spirit out of this boy is if you kill him as well. I am going to use this body as a main host for my spirit for the time being. Tell me Inuyasha, did you ever get the shards and forge them with the other ones that you have? Because if did you would have noticed this." said Naraku holding up a huge jewel shard that looked like a whole half of the shikon jewel.

"Let me give you the up-to-date information. Remember our dear priestess Kikyo? Well I used my magic, her soul and some clay and made Kagome just like Kikyo, a clay doll. The only thing that is different is that Kagome doesn't have to steals souls, because she feeds off my power and magic. Unlike Kikyo, she holds no sign of hatred or anything, because I erased all of her memories of the feudal era. She never even remembers falling down the bone eater's well. Oh and here is the fun part, if you try to tell her of her past memories with you, she will die and simply fall to bits" muttered Naraku as he started laughing out loud again.

"I even took the liberty to erase her mother's and grandfather's memories , but I didn't have to erase Souta's because if he dares to mutter a word to her I'll kill them all. Now if you don't mind, Inuyasha, I must be off." spoke Naraku as the glowing purple aura left and Souta turned back into his normal self.

"Don't worry Inuyasha. I'll do my best to try and help you. I'll get rid of this demon sooner or later." Said the real Souta.

Inuyasha smiled and nodded.

He knew that he must go back to the feudal era and tell the others of his discoveries. He jumped into the nearest tree and took off but slowly stopped at Kagome's school as he saw her at the window.

Kagome's Mind

I needed a breathe of fresh air so I had gone to the window. I stood there looking at the beautiful day and inhaled the intoxicating smell. It tickled my nose just a little, but I was easily distracted when I saw a flash of red jump from a tree. I turned to the tree and saw nothing, then looked back tat where I was looking prior to that and saw a young, handsome boy. The boy was dressed in a fire red kimono, he had silver hair and dog ears…wait…dog ears? I looked again. Yeah, he had dog ears. He looked at me kindly and I could do nothing but smile and wave. As I did, I saw his face sadden. I frowned then walked back to my sear, forgetting the young handsome boy... for now…

"She smiled at me." Said Inuyasha to himseld.

"Oh, how I miss her so much." Longed his heart.

"Don't worry Kagome, I'll save you from Naraku, if it's the last thing I do." said Inuyasha confidently as he jumped from tree to tree, back to the well and jumped inside head first, and headed to Kaede's as fast as his half'demon feet would carry him.
