Chapter 8!!!
I changed my mind, this chapter will mainly be about Kagome going back to the feudal era and finding the fluffy tail dude (many of you might know his name) She first has to earn his trust in order for him to help her. I'll make it good. I still don't know if this will be long. ^^

Sympathy: Part 1
Kagome was packing her bag while every now and then looking at Inuyasha to check if he'd wake. Yet, his form was still and there was no sign of future consciousness. 'He's so sick. There must be a huge battle going on between his normal self and his demon blood. I wish this would have never happened...' Kagome dropped her hair brush into her bag and walked over to her window; looking up at the pale blue sky. "...Kikyo has done this to you, Inuyasha. That... that evil lump of dirt! She should be dead and gone from our lives! I regretted saying that before but I mean it now. She's ruined everything for us. Taking our shards, trying to kill you, Inuyasha; me too!" Kagome quieted down and turned back to Inuyasha, "How- how can you still love her?"
Inuyasha moaned and turned to his head towards her. His eyes opened once and then they closed.
Kagome ran to him and touched his face gingerly. "Inuyasha, hold on until I come back. I promise I'll save you." She leaned into his face and gentally brushed her lips on his cheek.
She grabbed her bag and ran down stairs to find everyone down there waiting for her. She walked slowly to her little brother and patted his head, "You'll take care of Inuyasha while I'm gone wont you? And keep Buyo away from him," she said sort of cheery.
Souta swallowed and nodded.
Mrs. Higurashi walked up to her daughter and hugged her gentally, "Inuyasha will be fine if you'll be all right." That's all she said and she let her daughter pass.
Kagome touched the door knob and opened the door halfway. She looked back at her grandfather who was looking out the window, "I love you all. I'll be fine."
The shrine seemed to be still and asleep as she passed. Nothing was alive. It was like, it knew that Inuyasha wasn't all right. This made her walk to the well-house even longer. When she finally reached it she looked around on the peak of the stairs. 'This is where it all started. When Mistress Centipede dragged me down the well...'
Kagome steped down the stairs and sat on the rim of the well, 'I walked through the forest wondering where I was, and then I saw him. It seemed he was just asleep but he was sealed to the Sacred God Tree for 50 years by my incarnation, Kikyo. A strong priestess who fell in love with a half dog-demon. Naraku caused their demise. He tricked them, broke their trust and being sealed away was Inuyasha's fate. Inuyasha...'
She grabbed the few jewel shards she has and played with them musingly, "Inuyasha, it's been so long since we first met. We started this journey together and that's how we're going to finish it... together," she jumped in, still holding onto the jewel shards that glowed beneath her fingers.
She landed on the other side noticing something above her, Kilala.
"Kilala!" Kagome yelled as the small demon jumped into her arms. She purred and nestled her head into Kagome's chest.
"Why aren't you with Sango?" Kagome knew she wasn't going to get an answer but to her suprise she was answered.
"Sango suggested that Kilala stay in the village in case something would happen, or you came back," an old wise voice said.
Kagome dug through some of Kilala's fur and found Myouga who jumped up to Kagome's nose and started to drink. She squashed him and swated him away, "nice to see you too Myouga," she said coldly.
Kagome climbed out of the well with Kilala on her back; when she got out she looked around feeling like she hadn't been there in years, but it was only two weeks. She looked around for Myouga and after a while she found him on Kilala's back again. She picked her up and started to him, "How has everything been?"
"That should be my question," Myouga said seriously, "I know about Kikyo casting that spell. Every old wise demon has been talking about it for miles. None of them know who did it or who the victum was but I."
"I see." Kagome stared off thinking of Inuyasha. "Do you know where she is?"
Myouga stared up hard at Kagome's distant face, she seemed to be focusing on one thing, "What are you planning to do, Lady Kagome?"
Kagome stared at the village beyond the trees and wondered if Kaede was home, "I need to speak with Kaede." Kagome ignored any further conversation and walked towards the village.
Before she reached the outskirts of the village, Myouga said something to her that stopped her completely, "Are you wondering how to kill Kikyo, is that why you're consulting Kaede?"
Kagome stared down at Myouga with blank eyes, "If it comes down to that, maybe so. I don't want to kill her, for Inuyasha's sake, but I..."
"I'm sorry I asked, I didn't want to put you through stress."
The villagers greeted Kagome happily with her return but all Kagome did was put on an emotionless smile. She felt so empty for what she might have to do to protect and save Inuyasha.
Kaede was waiting outside her hut as Kagome approached her, "Aye child, what has brought you here today?"
"I need- I need to talk to you about Kikyo." Kagome said quickly but quietly.
"Aye, Myouga has informed me on your situation, please come in." She walked in with Kagome following her from behind. Kaede took a seat and signaled Kagome to do so and she obeyed.
"So, Kaede, what did Myouga tell you?"
"Very bad news child. My sister Kikyo has casted a spell on Inuyasha, has she not?"
Kagome nodded slowly as if her neck were about to break.
"Yee must know that Naraku has ploted this all?"
She nodded again, "I had a feeling Kikyo couldn't do this on her own and I had visions..."
Kaede looked at her questioningly, "Visions?"
"Yes, of him in his demon form killing everyone with a smile on his face. Then I saw Kikyo standing over a bright red light; there was a smile on her face and she was chanting the words of the spell..."
"What were they child?"
"It was something like, "Let blood destroy blood, let evil overcome good. Blood of a demon, blood of a human, burn away his sanity..."
"And kill his being," Kaede finished for her.
Kagome looked up at her dumbfounded, "How did you know that?"
Kaede stood and brought over a cup of herbal tea. She poured a cup for Kagome and herself. When she handed it to Kagome, she was hesistant to take it, "It will clam you for what I'm about to tell you," Kagome took the cup and sipped.
Kaede sat back down and sipped some of the tea, (What i'm stating is not related to the series!) "Our mother was a powerful priestess, she could make spells that could posses and spells that could cure and spells that could kill. Most of the villagers didn't like what she could do so they ignored thy family. My mother taught us a spell called the kokushibyou gekidoku, a death poison that can attack a body invisably. That was the last spell she taught us, that it was. To use this spell yee need to have something of the victum, for Inuyasha it was his Tetsusaiga's essence. Yee then take many deadly herbs and plants that could taint the goodness of their possesion. The concoxtion creates a sinister red light that would travel every and anywhere until it reached the victum. It sends a wave of shock through their body and they pass out. Some die instantly and some take a few days. What it does is attack the heart and its emotions until they die from agony. I assume now that Inuyasha is turning in his bed indicating bad dreams? He's fighting for his sanity. When yee lose thy sanity yee will die sooner, with this spell it attacks every single emotion until it destroys thy being and yee are nothing but an empty body."
Kagome dropped her tea and cover her face, "Are you saying that Inuyasha is fighting his demon blood that is killing everything he thought was right and wrong. Love and hate?"
"Aye."
Kagome wiped the silent tears falling down her face. She looked up and balled her fist in her lap, "How can I stop it?"
"You can't," Myouga answered. "I've heard of this, once it starts it wont stop unless..."
Kagome looked at him desperately, "Unless what?!"
He sighed and looked up at Kaede and she nodded, he then looked back at Kagome, "Unless you kill the one who casted the spell."
Kagome widened her eyes in shock, 'I can't do that; why can't their be another way! Inuyasha would hate me if he knows that I killed his very first love. I can't kill her, I won't.'
"You have another option Kagome," Kaede spoke.
Kagome looked at her with desperation in her eyes, "Please, tell me."
Kaede sipped her tea again and spoke quietly, "Since my sister is already dead, all yee need do is free her soul. Touch her with your hands and take your soul back. She'll live within yee once again."
Kagome thought for a moment, "Then I'll be more like Kikyo and Inuyasha will only care about me because I'm Kikyo!"
"Kagome."
Kagome calmed down and looked at her.
"It is up to Inuyasha to decide who he wants to be with. He can love Kikyo within yee; he can love yee or yee both in one." Kaede stood and placed a hand on Kagome's shoulder. "It's your choice; kill Kikyo or take back the remainder of your soul. Inuyasha will understand either way."
Kaede walked away but Kagome stopped her, "May I borrow a bow and a quiver full of arrows?"
She didn't turn but gave her a straight, "aye."
^.~
Later that day Kagome, Kilala and Myouga looked at the village from a hill. Kagome looked at her hand, the hand that might take back her soul or Kikyo's only life left. Before her eyes was an image of Inuyasha's smirking face. 'Never once have you really smiled.'
"Lady Kagome, do you know what you're going to do?" Myouga asked.
"It will come to me," she answered simply.
^.~
It was almost nightfall as a little girl looked for her new father through the forest. She'd been seperated from him after they'd be attacked by bandits and she was captured. She'd managed to get away but she couldn't find her adopted father.
She sat at the base of a tree and pulled her knees to her chin and wrapped her arms around them, "Where is he? How could he forget about me?" Silent tears trickled down her face and she started to shiver in fear.
The bushes rustled around her and growls were heard from them. She stood up and backed up into the tree, "Who's there?"
Slowly huge, ugly, monsterous demons surrounded her. One of them that seemed to be the leader licked his lips and spoke, "Looks like we've found our dinner boys."
They all cheered and closed in on her. They all growled and spoke evil words and explained which parts they wanted.
She looked around for her father but saw him no where, "Help me!" She screamed in fear and cuddled herself in a little ball. Her screaming ceiced as she watched the demons around her fall in thuds as a bright, sparkly light pass through them. When they were all clear little stars fell around her and she closed her eyes in glee. When they ended she looked beyond her to find a girl in a very short green and white kimono.
Kagome lowered her bow and walked to the little girl with a smile on her face, "Are you all right. You scared me; I thought i'd gotten here too late."
The girl smiled and looked up at her, "I'm fine, but I'm lost. Do you know where..." She turned and looked into a clearing.
Kagome looked also and widened her eyes in shock.
Rin smiled and pulled on Kagome's shirt, "That's Master Sesshoumaru."
