The power of love...

Chapter 1:Now matter what...

Kagome fell to her knees,blood dripping from her back.An arrow protruded from her her wound.Her eyes felt heavy and she just smiled,despite her pain.Inuyasha ran to her and held her in his arms,tears falling down his face.Kagome placed her hand on his cheek and she closed her eyes.Inuyasha screamed at her,and Kagome just smiled.The shikon jewel glowed in his hands and he felt hot tears of anger fall down his face.

Did she have to be so recklace?Did she have to go and try something as stupid as what she did?That damn Go-ryuu hurt her.He slashed at Kagome with his sword and then Kikyou...she held her arrow up and shot Kagome,intending to kill her.He sneered at the dead demon and then he turned his angry glare at Kikyou, who still had her bow raised as if she was ready to shoot again.

"Why?Why did you want to kill her?"Inuyasha said as he picked Kagome up and held her in his arms.Her head was limp and her face was wet with Inuyasha's and her tears.Kagome's hair swayed with the wind and Kikyou just frowned.

"Tell me why is it you care for some girl like her?"Kikyou just said.Inuyasha just looked at Kagome.He cared because...she changed him.She taught him to love and to accept her for who she really was.She was more than a reincarnation,she was...Kagome.An ordinary girl forced in the past with a hanyou like him.And,she was just to sweet to see her filled with pain and sadness when he was hurt.She was more to Inuyasha than a reincarnation of Kikyou.She was a girl with a personality unlike Kikyou.Brave and honest.But most of all,he loved her for her.

"Are you going to answer?"Kikyou said as Inuyasha continued to look at Kagome.

"I care for her because...she is unlike you.She's not cold-hearted or filled with anger of the past.She is kind and sweet and she is a lot more than what you have to offer,"Inuyasha said as he walked past Kikyou. He pulled the arrow out of Kagome's back and tossed the remains of it to Kikyou."Hurt her again and you will feel a death from my sword."

Kikyou shook with anger.Her eyes filled with even more hatered to her reincarnite.It her want to kill her even more.Is this the way it's supposed to be?Inuyasha picking some odd girl over her?Fine...when she wakes up,Inuyasha will be in for a surprise.

Kikyou walked to Naraku,her face held no emotion.Naraku just looked at her with his glaring red eyes.

"Is there...something you want?Or are you here to just say hi?"Naraku said as he looked at Kikyou. Kikyou just huffed.

"I need you to do me a favor."Naraku looked with a slight intrest.Kikyou blinked her eyes at him.

"What is the favor?Something to do with that girl who resembals you?"Kikyou narrowed her cold eyes at him.

"Yes.I need you to make her forget everything that she and Inuyasha have been through.Make her forget what she's doing here. I will asure you,you will get what you want."Kikyou said calmly.Naraku held his galre with her eyes.Then,he smiled.

"Fine,I'll do it.But don't think I'm doing this for nothing.I expect to see what you have planned."Naraku said turning from her.Kikyou just smiled

If you knew I didn't have a plan...then you wouldn't be doing this.

Inuyasha landed in the village and walked to Kaeada who was picking herbs.When she looked up and saw Inuyasha and Kagome,she stood.One look at Kagome and she knew she was hurt,maybe even dead.

"Can you fix her?Can you heal her wounds?"Inuyasha said as he and Kaeada walked into the hut.

"I'll do my best but don't rely on me.Sooner or later she's going to have to have her own time's medicine.I'll just do my best."Kaeada said as Inuyasha placed her on the cot and walked away.If she died,he'll kill Kikyou for hurting her.He didn't care if he broke his promise to Kikyou,he would kill her if she tried something again.He sat next to the opening and waited the longest time ever.
