Chapter 3
Authors Note: Well, not much to say…. R&R
Kiseki shivered it was hopeless this way, trapped in a bubble of some sort, with a man in a mirror, and a girl who had no scent, no shadow, and spoke normally with two words at a time.
"What is my destination, what do you plan to do with me?" Kiseki said firmly looking at the girl's dark eyes, staring as they floated.
"You….not the target" Kanna said softly, cradling the mirror to her chest almost as if comforting what was inside.
"Are you…crying?" Kiseki asked softly putting a hand on her shoulder showing Kikyou's ways in her.
"The mirror…is my feelings….the pain is on the inside…and he…will be free" Kanna said her voice seeming almost lifting, an evil smile on her face, Kiseki taking a step back.
"Who is that man?" Kiseki barked almost getting in a fighting stance, anger glistening in her eyes.
"That man is my father"
(A/N: Basically saying, Kanna even though when she was freed she hated Naraku but she can't get over him, she still sees him as that father figure, and that helps Naraku's control)
Kagome walked along towards the well, Kikyou approaching her calmly as Kagome leg's lowered over the well.
"Going back so soon?" Kikyou questioned a hand on her stomach, Kagome looking up looking down into the well.
"Oh well, Yuki is taking notes for me, She's a college friend, so I should probably thank her for that." Kagome said blushing slightly. 'What am I saying? Her kids in danger and all I'm thinking about is schoolwork…well not really but it wouldn't be right for me to go along with Inuyasha since…Inuyasha and Kikyou are….'
Kikyou frowned slightly, "I'm sure, if I didn't turn alive, Kiseki would have never been born."
Kagome paused at these words, looking over her shoulder shocked. "Kikyou…What are you trying to say?"
"If I had been dead, Inuyasha would have been with you Kagome, and Kiseki would never have existed." Kikyou said quietly a tear burning her eyes.
"Kikyou…Well…You're with him…" Kagome said softly, swishing her legs to the side, her heart being squeezed as she talked.
"Kagome…If my daughter is to put into that mirror, you'll bring the shickon no tama back" Kikyou said softly, Kagome's eyes widening with fear, 'the jewel…' "No Kikyou we couldn't possibly do that again."
"No, once that happens, you'll undo Inuyasha's wish. Everyone dead, will re-die, Kiseki will never have been born, and neither will this child." Kikyou said holding her stomach as Kagome looked at her.
"You'd give up your daughter?" Kagome squealed, her hands clenching to fists. "You can't do that! You can't give up!"
"Kiseki would be reborn within your daughter's body, none the less you are my reincarnation and next time when you wish make sure you're more specific, with people such as me, and then Kohaku and the others will be alright."
Kagome was off the well and by Kikyou's side, "It won't come to that Kikyou" she said through tears, "Stop trying to be the noble one"
"I don't want my daughter to suffer Kagome, and if it's true that's my dying wish." Kikyou said turning off, Kagome's eyes running with tears.
'It's not worth it' Kagome thought to herself looking at Kikyou through watery eyes. 'If being with Inuyasha means losing the thing Inuyasha loves the most, it's not worth it, it would never be the same. Inuyasha needs Kiseki AND Kikyou.' Kagome shut her eyes, 'Just friends' she told herself, the idea of her and Inuyasha with a mini Kiseki echoed through her mind as she repeated the words to herself 'Just friends.'
Sesshomaru's Castle
Kohaku shuffled through the gates of Sesshomaru's castle, blushing darkly.
'The biggest decision of my life…I beg Sesshomaru's acceptance, I love Rin-chan so much.' Kohaku thought nervously as he was greeted by Rin's warm smile. "Kohaku-kun!" Rin screamed the 16 year old smiling through her window; her hair was still in a pony tail on one side of her head just like back then.
"Rin! I'd like to have a word with you and Sesshomaru!" Kohaku said cupping his hand over his mouth making his voice echo up to her, her giggling laughter filled his ears as she nodded her head. "Come in!" She called as she disappeared from the window, her footstep echoing down the fleet of stairs
"You know Kohaku your always welcome here" Rin said smiling, Kohaku's face darkening, "Well, I have a very important question to ask you and Sesshomaru" Kohaku said firmly, his brown eyes glistening with emotion. "Kohaku…" Rin's voice trailed off as Kohaku leaned into her his eyes closed, Rin leaning in a bit herself, closing her eyes as a voice boomed from behind them. "What do you want to ask me Kohaku?"
Rin stumbled backwards by the sound of Sesshomaru's voice landing flat on her bottom, Kohaku's face darkening with embarrassment as he rubbed the back of his head nervously, his confidence gone.
Sesshomaru raised an eye brow at the two, both their faces were very red, and Sesshomaru wasn't actually sure why. 'Was he going to kiss Rin?' Sesshomaru pondered for a moment, his face pailing. 'Kohaku? But Kohaku's normally so shy…' Sesshomaru turned back into the castle, letting it pass…for now. "Will you be staying for dinner Kohaku?" Sesshomaru questioned his voice being as non interested as always.
"H-Hai sir, if that's alright." Kohaku asked trying to sound as firm as Sesshomaru, failing miserably, Rin giggling by this slightly, sure she was sixteen but she still acted six.
"You know" Rin smiled blushing slightly as she looked over her shoulder at Kohaku "Your really cute when your nervous." This caused Kohaku to blush even farther as he entered the building. 'Damn it' he cursed under his breath. 'I wonder whatInuyashaand everyone areup too…'
Inuyasha sat talking to a demon that lived apparently in the lake below the cave. His eyes filled with hope as the demon sat on the side.
"Why should I tell you anything" He said his voice uninterested.
"Look, I'd say I'd clobber you but I don't have time have you or have you not" Inuyasha said annoyed as the demon rolled his eyes.
"Yes I saw them, There probably going after the 5 elements, you can beat them if you hurry" The demon said smirking as Inuyasha eyes perched up.
"What do you want?" Inuyasha said almost on his toes now, 'I can stop it before it get's much farther.' Inuyasha thought almost anxiously.
"I want your sword" The demon said, Inuyasha's grip tightening on the Tetsusaiga.
"You can't use it!" Inuyasha spat "Demons can't use it"
"I want it. Or you'll never save… what did that girl say her name was….something with a K perhaps…"
"Kiseki…" Inuyasha whispered the demon laughing
"Yes that's it! Kiseki!" The demon said as the sword landed in front of him. Inuyasha's eyes soft.
"Where are they?" Inuyasha's voice was soft as the demons eyes showered with shock and sadness.
"The fire nation, their after the phonix medallion, to the north of here, you'll catch there scent there not to far away." The demon whispered as Inuyasha turned to go
"Hey wait" Inuyasha turned softly annoyed
"I don't have time"
"Take your sword…You owe me…" Inuyasha's eyes softened as he put Tetsaiga back at his side, turning away from him. "Thank you." He whispered as he bolted through the air.
Naraku smiled as Kanna grabbed the medallion, Kiki's body on the ground, shaking. "Look at what you've done to these people!" Kiseki screamed, tears rolling down her face. "The villagers, there all dead! And everything burned! On fire! What are you people!" Kiseki cried harder now, Kanna handing her the medallion.
"Drench your hand…in the villager's blood" Kanna commanded as she grasped Kiseki's hand firmly forcing her hand as well as the medallion into the blood of the strewn corpses that lay all over the ground…
"Go!" Kanna said pushing her, Kiseki staring at her blood covered hand as she looked over her ears twitching, Inuyasha's eyes wide with horror, his eyes skimming over her tears, and blood covered hands.
"Kiseki…what have you done?"
Authors Note+cries+ I'm sorry Inuyasha it's not what you think! Read and Review…I'm sorry Kiseki…
