Ch.7 God Demon Revived
RECAP.
"Get the mutt! He has the miko!" The demon yelled to all the other demons. All the demons ran forward and started attacking the four all at once.
"Dammit! Get back here!" Inuyasha yelled to the demon.
"I Regoku, leader of the Coyote Tribe will not sink so low as to battle a half demon like yourself." He said as he started heading the other direction. Nightfall was coming close so he had to ready himself for tonight.
"Where the hell are you going coward! I thought we were going to see how it turned out!" Inuyasha asked as he sliced through three demons with his sword.
"Ya but I remembered I have more important things to do." Regoku said as he tossed the vile up then catched it.
"Damn you get back here!" Inuyasha yelled.
"W-what's going on?" Kagome asked very softly and quietly. Inuyasha was the only one who could here her over the growling and howling of the demons. He killed the demon before him in one slice an ran over to her. Sango, Miroku and Kilala were off fighting demons. He was at her side in an instant and he stroked her cheek.
"Are you ok?" He asked her with worry in his voice.
"Oh sure, i'm muc..." She stopped when Inuyasha interupted.
"The truth Kagome, how are you feeling?" He asked her. She looked at him and gave him a half smile.
"Like I said much better now, just a little weak." She told him as he helped her stand. "What's going on?" She asked him as she looked around. Miroku and Sango were now in front of Inuyasha and Kagome protecting them from on coming demons.
"Nothing to worry about for now. We just need to get your power back or your strength may not be revived." He told her softly.
END.RECAP.
"I want to help." She told him plain out.
"No." Inuyasha told her and looked to the side where Regoku had gotten. "Miroku! Sango! Watch Kagome! I have some trash to take care of." Inuyasha said as he started running over to Regoku.
"NO! INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled for him when she saw the demon he was going for. Inuyasha looked back at her when she called out to him. He saw the worry in her face and scared look she got when she looked at the demon. He growled at the fact that the demon did something to scare her. He looked back at the demon who was making his way to the gravesite of the coyote god. Inuyasha was running toward Regoku as he got to the gravesite and opened the vile.
"NO! GET BACK HERE YOU BASTARD!" Inuyasha yelled as Regoku brought his hand near his face and closed his eyes as he chanted some type of spell and the power that belonged to Kagome came out like thousands of fireflies coming out of the container but they went through the ground into the grave. Inuyasha was tackled by one of the demons. Inuyasha watched over the demons shoulder as the ground began to shake as the demon pushed him to the ground. Inuyasha jumped up and started to fight the demon. He striked at him but he managed to dodge tetsusaiga's attack.
"Dammit! WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha yelled as he swiped his sword once more at the demon. The demon tried to move to the side but the attack managed to kill him along with a few other demons behind him. Inuyasha looked around and there were coyote demons everywhere. He looked over at Sango who was looking over at the gravesite with wide eyes. All the demons stopped fighting and bowed down to where the ground was cracking where the grave was. Miroku looked over at the grave also. Regoku took a step back and knealed down to the grave. Sango ran over to where Inuyasha was as more of the ground cracked. "What's happening Sango?" Inuyasha asked as he looked straight on at the grave.
"I think the god is reviving." Sango told him unbelieveably.
"But I thought you said only the most powerful miko or preist had enough power for the god to use to revive?" He asked her as he looked to her.
"...I did." Sango said and turned to face him.
"T-that means..." Inuyasha looked over to where Kagome sat with Miroku helping her stand as she watched the grave raise above ground as the demon god tried to get out. Sango nodded to what Inuyasha was going to say.
"Kagome is...the one." Sango told him as the god raised out of the ground. "But Inuyasha...she will die without her power. She will become to weak to be able to last." Sango told him. Inuyasha looked at her with wide eyes when he remembered what Kagome had said. "Like I said much better now, just a little weak." She had told him not to long ago.
"She's already getting weak." Inuyasha said softly. He looked over at the demon that was now standing searching the grounds as his eyes stopped at Kagome. His features changed from soft and worry to a fierce dangerous look. He was beyond pist. 'I'm not about to lose you Kagome! Not after I finally get the chance to have you.' Inuyasha thought as he ran over to the demon. He made a loud long growl as he brought tetsusaiga over his head. "DAAAMMN YOOOUU!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran toward the coyote god. He was getting ready to strike at him when he put his arm out to toss him but Inuyasha dodged it as he jumped on top of his arm and ran up it with his sword. The coyote god was huge. He had a large coyote face with red gleaming eyes and he was very large with black claws at end of each finger, and brown fur covering his body. He wore worn out dark blue armor and his clothes seemed to be tattered.
"Get me the Miko." The demon yelled to his demon servants. All the demons except Regoku ran for Kagome. Inuyasha went to strike him again.
"Don't fucking touch her!" Inuyasha yelled as he tried to swipe at the god demon.
"Why is this half demon trying to make me angry?" The god asked as he picked Inuyasha up making him drop his sword.
"Sorry my lord, he came for the miko and wont leave." Regoku stepped up to say.
"And why arn't you helping them get me the miko?" The demon god asked.
"Because I am to be by your side to keep you safe." Regoku said to him as he bowed down.
"Then get this mutt out of my sight." The coyote god said as he threw Inuyasha to the side. Regoku walked over to Inuyasha and pulled out his own katana.
"I'm going to kill that god of yours and get Kagome's powers back, and when I do you will be next to die." Inuyasha told him as he stood.
"We'll see about that mutt." Regoku said raising his sword as he ran toward Inuyasha. He swung at Inuyasha but he had dodged the attack.
"Who are you calling mutt?" Inuyasha asked as he stood to the side of him. "Iron Reaver!" Inuyasha yelled as he cut his claws through Regoku's arm.
"AGH!" Regoku grabbed his arm as Inuyasha jumped back. "Youv'e got brawn to attack me without a sword." Regoku said through clenched teeth. "But that brawn wont be any good once your dead!" Regoku yelled as he ran toward Inuyasha again. Sango and Miroku were fighting off demons that tried to come near Kagome. Kagome was watching Regoku and Inuyasha's battle with fear and worry in her eyes. She watched every punch and scratch made after each swipe of the sword. Inuyasha jumped back once again near his sword and picked it up as Regoku ran to him with his sword in front of him. Inuyasha stopped his attempt by holding his sword in front of him as it transformed.
"Your lucks begining to run out now!" Inuyasha told him as he pushed Regoku away from him.
"I don't think so." Regoku said as he gave a swipe of his sword. Inuyasha jumped up trying to dodge the attack but didn't jump soon enough causing the sword to cut him on the leg.
"NO! INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled when she saw this happen. Inuyasha landed on the ground almost falling forward from the pain that caused from him putting his wieght on his leg. Miroku held Kagome back as she tried to run over to him. "He can't win with an injured leg, he just can't." Kagome complained as she tried to get loose from Miroku's grasp.
"What do you plan to do? You have no power Kagome." Miroku told her as she let herself drop to the ground knowing she couldn't help. She was just to weak and what could she do without power?
"You can't beat me. Just give yourself up and save yourself the trouble." Regoku said with a slight evil laugh.
"We've just begun. Don't assume so much so far ahead of the fight." Inuyasha told him with-holding the pain inside. Inuyasha tried to run forward but realized it caused to much pain to run over there.
"You can't even come near me. What do you plan to do when I attack you? You can't dodge my attacks any longer." Regoku said as he ran forward and swiped toward Inuyasha's arm. Inuyasha spun around so his back was toward Regoku and turned his sword around and pushed his sword behind him wedging it into Regoku's side. Regoku had a flash of pain cross his face before it turned back to anger as he shoved his hand through Inuyasha's back having it come out the other side. Inuyasha's eyes widened in pain and pulled his sword out of Regoku and dropped to the ground as Regoku slipped his arm out of Inuyasha. Regoku looked down at Inuyasha and showed an evil smirk onto his face as he raised his sword over his head.
"NOOO! INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled as loud as she could. Regoku looked up toward her and smirked. He looked back down and Inuyasha shoved his hand through Regoku's stomach. Regoku's eyes widened at the pain then at the feature change of Inuyasha's face. His eyes had turned from amber to dark blue with red surrounding it and he now had a purple mark on each sides of his face. Inuyasha had turned demon. His sword lied forgotten to the side. He growled showing his now larger fangs and stretched his fingers with now longer claws.
"What the hell?" Regoku asked as he stepped back a step holding his stomach.
"What's the matter Regoku? Can't fight anymore? Well you better get ready for this because it's about to hurt alot more." Inuyasha told him with low deep demonic voice.
"Enough with the playing around! Kill him now!" The coyote god yelled. Regoku nodded as he ran forward as best he could. Inuyasha ran forward also as if he wasn't in any pain anymore.
"He's become demon." Kagome said with her hands over her mouth as she watched terrified.
"KILALA WATCH OUT!" Sango yelled as a demon snuck up behind Kilala. Sango threw her hiraikotsu at the demon slicing the demon in two.
The coyote demon grew impatient. "You Regoku! You are not worthy to keep me safe. You can't even take care of a worthless half demon." He said as he brought his claws down on him killing him in an instant. Inuyasha looked at the coyote demon and had the sudden urge to kill. He ran toward the demon god ready to kill him as soon as he had an open shot. Kagome's eyes widened as he ran toward the demon.
"Inuyasha's not going to make the hit. That god demon is going to kill him. He's planning something. I have to do something." Kagome said quietly to herself. Miroku and Sango were back to keeping demons back. They were wearing down from fighting so much. "Now's my only chance." She said to herself as she stood and started running toward Inuyasha. "INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled as she ran. She held her hand out toward him. The demon looked over to Kagome as Inuyasha swiped his hand through the god's arm slicing it off. Kagome stopped in surprise.
"ARRRRGHHHHH DAMMIT!" The god demon yelled out in pain.
"KAGOME!" Sango and Miroku yelled out to her when they saw her over there. Kagome looked at them and shook her head. She was begining to feel light headed. Inuyasha was getting ready to throw another attack at the demon when he was thrown back by the god demons other arm. Kagome saw this and looked around to find a way to help. She saw tetsusaiga lying on the ground and ran toward it. Inuyasha was already back up going for the demon.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled after he made a gash into the god demon's chest. The coyote god was already weakening from the attacks made toward him.
"WENCH STAY OUT OF IT!" The god demon yelled. Sango and Miroku were trying not to kill any of the demons but just fighting them and they were about ready to pass out, they had figured that these demons were being controlled.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled as she threw the tetsusaiga toward him. He turned around to see what the god demon was looking at and saw the sword coming toward him. He caught the handle in his hand.
"Die Demon!...This is the end for you!" Inuyasha yelled as his voice changed back to normal. "WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha yelled as he attacked the god demon using his swords special technique.
"DAAAMMMNN YOOOOUU!" The god demon yelled as his body discentegrated and out flew the spirit of the god demon also the power and magic from the other mikos and priests that were sacrificed to try to revive the demon. The powers of them all flew up into the sky except two. They went toward Kagome. She scrunched her face getting ready for what was coming.
"AHHHH!" Kagome screamed as the powers entered her body. Kagome's body began to glow a light bluish white aura as her body raised above the ground.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha yelled as he watched this all happen to her. He walked as close as he could get but her body was floating above the ground standing straight up. "What's happening to her?" Inuyasha asked. The spirit of the coyote god was floating near Kagome.
"Yes, I will take back the power and the girl all in one. It will be much easier." The demon god said. All the coyote demons had stopped fighting to see what was going on and were now bowed down to the ground to serve their respect to their god.
"OH NO YOU DON'T!" Inuyasha yelled as he was getting ready to attack when a bright white light covered the land where they stood. He covered his eyes as the light passed by. "K-Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. The bright light had came from her body. She was looking at the demon and held a bow and arrow. Her eyes were glowing a blue color.
"Is she possesed?" Sango asked as she looked at her friend face off with the demon.
"I believe so but by what is the question." Miroku told her as they watched.
"You have been the cause of so many mikos and priest's deaths and you have used the shikon shards for evil which will not be forgiven. Now you will die demon!" A voice said that seemed to be coming from Kagome.
"Somebody is using Kagome's body to communicate." Miroku told them. Kagome pulled back the string of the bow and let the arrow fly to the god demon.
"AGHHHH! DAMN YOU WENCH!" The coyote demon yelled out as the spirit dissapeared along with the bow and arrow. Kagome's body lowered some but still remained floating in the air.
"Who the hell are you!" Inuyasha demanded between clenched teeth.
"Calm down Inuyasha. I am Midoriko the priestess of the Shikon Jewel." Said the voice that came from Kagome's lips as she crossed her arms.
"How do you know who I am and why are you in Kagome's body!" Inuyasha asked.
"I know you because you are the hanyou that is working on collecting the shikon jewel fragments. I know all of you and I also know your thoughts and desires. I am using Kagome's body to help. It is true, Kagome has become a powerful miko. The most powerful of all. Soon her powers will get difficult for her to use. Her powers are starting to surface. I'm afraid she may not be able to handle it which is why I have made my appearance here. You must know that no matter what Kagome goes through she needs you all." Midoriko explained to them. "She is the protector of the Shikon Jewel. The jewel needs to stay protected and without her the jewel can get in anyone's hands."
"We do protect Kagome. And the jewel has been safe so far." Inuyasha told her.
"Yes, I know this. But it will become harder and harder as her powers begin to surface but after she gains control all will be safe again." She told them pleasantly.
"How did Kagome get the job to protect the jewel?" Miroku asked Midoriko as he bowed in respect.
"She is the most powerful miko. She is more powerful then her past incarnation Kikyo. She is protector by power." Midoriko told him. Miroku and Sango looked over at Inuyasha at the mention of Kikyo's name but he didn't seem to be bothered at all like he used to get. 'Kagome feels confused you are her friends you need to help her out. She cares about you all deeply especially you Inuyasha. You must help her through her rough times.' Midoriko thought. "That is all I can say, just watch over her." Midoriko said as Kagome's eyes turned back the normal soft brown and the bright aura that surrounded her body dissapeared. She began to fall from the sky when it had dissapeared.
"Oh shit!" Inuyasha said as he rushed under Kagome and caught her, he spun as he got his grip and held her close as he looked at her face. "She wants us to protect her and yet she let's her fall from the sky." Inuyasha said as Miroku and Sango walked toward him but stopped. The demons stood around looking at each other as if not knowing what had happend.
"It seems the demons were under the coyote god's control." Miroku said as he looked at them all.
"Must of been the work of Regoku." Sango said also looking around. Kagome's face scrunched up before she slowly opened her eyes. Inuyasha knealed on the ground as he held her.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Inuyasha asked her softly. Kagome looked at him and remembered what had happend.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome said as she pulled herself up and hugged him. "Your ok." She said into the hug.
"Why wouldn't I be? I can take things on like that whimpy demon." Inuyasha told her as he rubbed her back.
"Kagome!" Sango said as she saw her friend now awake. Miroku looked over and also saw and they walked the rest of the way toward the two. Inuyasha pulled away and stood up and helped her stand as Sango ran over and pulled Kagome into a tight hug. "Thank kami your ok." Sango said worriedly.
"What happend?" Kagome asked as Sango pulled away.
"I don't know. Midoriko's soul possesed your body to communicate with us and kill the coyote god." Miroku told her. "Glad your ok Kagome." He said as he smiled at her.
"Thanks. So what about all these demons?" Kagome asked as she looked around.
"They seemed to be controled by the god. We assumed Regoku did it." Sango told her as she also looked around once more. Kagome nodded but held her head as she began to fall to the ground.
"What the hell?" Inuyasha said as he caught her once more.
"She must be weak still. This is all to much for her. Let's get her back so she can rest." Miroku told them. Inuyasha nodded as he lifted her into his arms.
"You go ahead and we'll be on Kilala. We still have to take care of Kira." Sango told him. Miroku nodded as Inuyasha started off toward the Slayer's Village. Miroku and Sango got on Kilala as she flew into the air.
Kagome moved slightly as she turned her head toward Inuyasha. She pulled her hand up and grabbed a hold of his haori. Inuyasha looked down at her as he began to slow down. She moaned lightly before opening her eyes.
"Inuyasha?" She asked as her vision cleared. "What happend?" Kagome asked when she noticed she was being held in his arms.
"You fainted. Your still to weak to be moving about so much." Inuyasha told her.
"Where are we?" She asked when she looked around and noticed they weren't at the same place as before.
"Were going back to the Slayer's Village. You need to rest." Inuyasha said as he began to walk back toward the village once again.
"I can walk you know." Kagome told him as she struggled to get up.
"Ya and let you faint again? I'm not having it. Your staying as you are right now." Inuyasha told her. Kagome gave him a narrowed look as she crossed her arms. They stayed quiet until they arrived to the hut.
Miroku and Sango were standing in the entrance when Inuyasha and Kagome arrived.
"Hey what's happening?" Inuyasha asked as he walked next to them.
"Kira is gone." Sango told him. Inuyasha set Kagome down so she was standing and he walked into the hut.
"What do you mean she's gone? Where did she go?" Inuyasha asked as he looked into the hut.
"Sh-she dissapeared. She got up as if she was flying and then got outside and then turned to dust." Shippo explained with a scared look on his face. Kagome walked into the hut. "Kagome! Your back!" Shippo yelled as he jumped toward Kagome until Inuyasha caught him by the tail.
"Kagome's not in the best shape to be playing around." Miroku told Shippo. Kagome crossed her arms since no one would let her speak for herself.
"Ya so back off." Inuyasha told him and dropped him to the floor and crossed his arms inside his sleeves.
"You guys i'm right here you know! I can speak for myself!" Kagome said with an annoyed tone.
"Ya but you really need to rest. You could faint again." Sango told her. Kagome looked down with a sigh and nodded.
"I'll be outside." Kagome said as she walked out of the hut.
"Do you think Kira was some how connected to the other demon?" Sango asked the two boys.
"It seems that way but even if she was connected to Regoku then why would she die?" Miroku asked as he looked around.
"You think Midoriko could have done it?" Inuyasha asked the two. He looked up at them to see their answer.
"It's possible. I mean she was with us but she used Kagome's body. Maybe she somehow killed Kira knowing she would do evil." Miroku said walking to where Kira was supposed to be tied up. He touched the ground and closed his eyes.
"Do you sense anything Miroku?" Sango asked him as she walked up behind him.
"Yes, I think it was Midoriko. I don't know who else could have such strong good power." Miroku told them as he looked up at them. All three looked toward the enterance of the hut. "This is far from over." Miroku said as he spoke about Kagome.
"What is far from over Miroku?" Shippo asked as he walked up to them finally getting curious.
"Us all being here. Our reason for traveling. This trip isn't even close to ending." Sango told him. She looked over at Kilala who was sleeping in the corner of the hut. "Seems Kilala is worn out." Sango told them.
"Ya that was a long fight. But...someone needs to tell Kagome. She needs to know about her powers." Miroku said as he looked at Inuyasha.
"Ya, it's important for her to know." Sango said also looking at Inuyasha. He glarred at the two then threw his arms to his sides.
"Why do I have to tell her? Can't we just wait till she finds out on her own?" Inuyasha asked.
"You know why it should be you and don't you think it's best for Kagome to know instead of having her suffer?" Miroku asked knowing that would convince him.
"Fine! I'll do it." Inuyasha said as he got up and walked outside. He stopped at the hut enterance on the outside and looked at Kagome. She was sitting under a tree looking at the sky. He sighed as he continued to walk over to her and sat beside her.
"Hey, I get visitors now?" She asked sarcastically as she turned to look at him.
"Ha ha very funny. We're just trying to help you know." Inuyasha told her.
"I know. I feel bad for making you guys go through all of that. Oh ya how's your wound?" Kagome asked him as she touched his side. He hissed in pain.
"I actually forgot about it." He said threw clenched teeth trying to hold in the pain.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you." She said pulling her hands away. Inuyasha grabbed her hands in his.
"It's ok. There's something that happend though...that you should know about." He said hesitating a bit.
"W-what happend? Is everyone ok?" Kagome asked getting a little worried.
"Well everyone's ok if you define that as fine. But...the only way for the coyote god to revive was for the most powerful miko or priest to be sacrificed. They would have their power pulled out of them like what happend to you and then chant a spell and have the power enter the grave of the god." Inuyasha explained to her.
"B-but...the god revived." Kagome said quietly. "T-that would mean..." She stopped herself as she looked up at Inuyasha. He nodded to her.
"Your a very powerful miko Kagome...the most powerful. You may not think so because your powers havn't matured yet. But...Midoriko the priestess who faught for the jewel...she told us this." Inuyasha said looking down.
"S-so...what's going to happen?" Kagome asked starting to get scared.
"Your powers are going to get stronger and stronger. We'll be here the whole time though. You don't have to worry." Inuyasha told her softly bringing one of her hands to his lips. He kissed her hand lightly.
"How did Midoriko tell you all this? How do I know this is all true? What if i'm asleep, I could be dreaming. I am 'not' the most powerful miko." Kagome said as she stood up.
"Kagome, it's all true. I wouldn't lie to you. Midoriko's spirit must have exited the jewel for a while and she entered your body and told us this. She even killed the demon god. You 'are' the most powerful miko Kagome. Don't be afraid. I'm going to be right here with you the whole way." Inuyasha said as he stood now standing in front of her.
"Promise?" She asked as she looked up at him. He smirked and rested his forehead on hers.
"You know it." He told her and she smiled back.
"Oh wow. You were right Miroku." Sango said as she watched the two from the hut. "I never would have thought Inuyasha to be so sweet to her."
"I think Kagome knew how he truly was the whole time. She knows him better then any of us." Miroku told her as he walked over and looked also. "Inuyasha will hear you i'd move if I were you." Miroku told her. Sango turned and stuck her tongue out at him as he walked away.
"Kagome..." Inuyasha whispered in her ear. "Look over my shoulder at the hut and tell me if I am right that Sango is looking over here." He told her quietly. Kagome stood on her toes and tried to look over his shoulder at the hut. Sango quickly ducked below the window. Kagome smiled a bit and stood back on her feet.
"You know you were right. I can't believe they actually do that." Kagome told him as her gaze went back to him. He looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh ya just like when you spy on her and Miroku." Inuyasha said as he laughed a bit. Kagome glarred at him and hit him on the chest. "Hey!" He complained. "Shouldn't hit the injured." He told her rubbing his chest.
"Oh ya which reminds me. We have to clean your wounds. I don't have any herbs so i'll have to use my medicines." Kagome smirked. Inuyasha squinched his face at the thought of that stuff on his wound.
"That stuff stings." He whined. She looked at him with a raised eye brow.
"Well were in the slayer's village and I don't have any herbs here. So you either suffer or use my medicines." Kagome told him as she grabbed his hand and walked backwards toward the hut dragging him.
"I'll suffer then." Inuyasha said pulling his hand back.
"Ya, I figured you'd say that. Your not going to suffer. Now come on." Kagome told him as she grabbed his haori sleeve and dragged him inside.
"Dammit wench I said i'll suffer." Inuyasha told her as he pulled his arm back. He crossed his arms but then hissed in pain and let his arms drop to his side.
"And I said no." Kagome told him as she grabbed his arm once more and pulled him to the floor.
"Uhh...are you guys ok?" Sango asked a little confused.
"Ya, just ran out of herbs and Inuyasha is being chicken about using my medicines." Kagome told them.
"Oh...we'll be outside." Miroku said as him and Sango stepped out bringing Shippo along. They knew very well what Kagome's medicines were like and didn't feel like hearing Inuyasha's complaints. Kagome pulled her bag to her side and pulled out a spray can of discenfectant.
"Take off your shirt." Kagome told him as she got out bandages. He gave her this why-should-I look and she looked up at him. "Inuyasha don't make me say it and then have you suffer even more." Kagome told him after she got her stuff out. Inuyasha pulled his haori off while grumbling.
"Damn wench so bossy, and damn fucking medicine." He complained as he threw his haori to the side and then took his shirt off.
"Stop complaining, it's just medicine." Kagome told him as she opened the top to the discenfectant.
"Ya medicine that stings and makes the wound hurt more." Inuyasha told her.
"Only for a couple of minutes." She said as she looked at his wound. "And you'd rather go around having a wound that bad?" Kagome asked as she grimaced at the look of the wound. She sprayed it to clean the wound. Inuyasha hissed in pain as he pulled his arm over it. "Kami Inuyasha, it's just medicine." She said as she pulled his arm away and blew on it to reduce the stinging. "Better?" She asked as she looked up at him. He nodded as she put some medicine over it and then started to wrap his torso with the bandages.
"I think I felt better before you tried to put medicine on me." Inuyasha told her as he looked at the discenfectant.
"Ya but it's supposed to help. Besides you felt better because you turned demon." Kagome told him. "Pull your pants up a bit on your leg." Kagome told him while pointing to his pants.
"Why?" He asked her giving her a suspicious look.
"Just...pull them up some." She told him. "You got the sword stabbed into your leg. Either pull your pants up or clean it yourself. You choose." She told him. He started rolling up his pants. He wasn't very good at treating his own wounds, he always tended to hurt himself more. She grimaced once more at the sight of the cut. "Wow that's deep." She said as she sprayed it. Inuyasha scrunched his face and Kagome blew on it to calm the stinging feeling. She put medicine on it and wrapped it up and Inuyasha rolled his pants back down being careful of the wound. Kagome put all her stuff in her bag and got up to put it to the side. Inuyasha tried to stand up.
"Dammit!" Inuyasha said as he fell to the ground when he put to much wieght on his injured leg.
"Maybe you should let your leg rest for a bit." Kagome told him. "Just sit here for a while."
"In here? I think i'd rather go in a tree." He told her.
"Fine, if you can actually get 'to' the tree, then by all means go right ahead." Kagome said as she crossed her arms. He stood up but had to lean against the wall. He looked at her for a second and figured she was probably right and slid back to the floor. He sighed as he got settled on the floor. Kagome went over and got a blanket since it was getting cool. She sat down next to him and pulled the blanket over both of them. "I'll keep you company." She told him as she lied her head on his shoulder.
"How are you feeling now?" Inuyasha asked her softly.
"Better. I'm not so light-headed anymore and I can actually sense stuff again." She told him.
"That's good. Just Kagome, don't do that again." He told her with a smirk.
"Ya didn't I tell you? I like being kidnapped." Kagome told him sarcastially. Inuyasha chuckled lightly.
"I know. You just scared me, that's all." He said in a mere whisper.
"I scared you?" Kagome asked a little surprised.
"Of course. You could have died if it wasn't for Midoriko." Inuyasha told her. He was just realizing this as he spoke of it.
"And thanks to you." She told him as she looked up at him and smiled.
"Ya but Midoriko killed the demon." He told her. 'Thank you Midoriko if it wasn't for you I would have never gotten Kagome back.' He thought as he looked into Kagome's eyes.
"But your the one who came to my rescue, Thank you." She told him with a warm smile. "But you know it felt so wierd not having my power." She said as she looked down.
"How did it feel wierd?" Inuyasha asked and he looked outside and could see Sango and Miroku sitting around a fire under the night sky through the side of the door flap.
"I don't know. Just not being able to sense the jewel. I usually always can sense it around my neck or in my pocket. Not being able to just felt so...different I guess. I always thought the way I felt was the way every other human felt." She told him. "But every other human dosn't have to sense shikon jewel shards or fight demons, do they?" Kagome asked him as she looked up at him.
"No...they don't. Are you saying you want to stop looking for the jewel shards Kagome?" Inuyasha asked her trying to understand what she was saying.
"No, I wouldn't give this stuff up for the world. I love being here, and the best part is I get to spend every moment with you here. Everyday is like an adventure...even if it gets out of hand sometimes. I don't think I could ever go home and forget about being here. I would miss doing all this if I ever had to. I love being here with you." Kagome said. Inuyasha untied his sword and put it beside him and pulled Kagome closer before wrapping his arm around her.
"So what are you trying to say?" He asked her still unsure what she meant.
"I don't know. I think i'm trying to understand that myself. But...how did I get to be the most powerful miko? I can barely fight for myself. You always end up having to rescue me." She told him.
"That's not true. You always fend off demons with your bow and arrows. Why can't you believe that you actually are a powerful miko? Kagome your still young, have you ever thought that not all your powers have appeared yet?" He asked her.
"I guess." She said since that did make some sense. "But i'm not that young." She told him as she looked up at him.
"Kagome your 17 years old, that's still young for your powers to have matured. So you would have never known anyways." Inuyasha told her.
"You really think so?" Kagome asked him. He nodded to her as she lied her head on his shoulder once again.
SANGO.AND.MIROKU.
"So they really are together now?" Sango asked Miroku.
"I believe so. If seeing them kiss isn't proof enough then I don't know what's happening." Miroku told her as he poked a stick into the fire.
"Wow, it's about time. I didn't think he was ever going to tell her his true feeling at this rate." Sango said as she just starred into the fire.
"Yes I know, Inuyasha was stuck in his own little conflict about being with Kikyo or Kagome. First off Kikyo is dead and seems to not have any love for him anymore if all she wants to do is pull him down into hell with her and Kagome is the best choice for him. I mean look what she's done to him already. She's changed him. He is more caring now ever since Kagome has been with him. He was slowly changing as I first traveled with him. He actually refers to us as his friends, did you know that?" Miroku asked her.
"I knew he protected us and that we counted him off as a friend but I had no idea he thought the same toward us. But not only did Kagome change his heart, I think he helped Kagome out in his own way." Sango said. Miroku nodded in agreement.
"I do wonder what he is planning to do next time Kikyo comes again though." Miroku said as he stood.
"Ya, I wonder that myself, he didn't say anything like he usually does when Midoriko brought her up." Sango said as she stood also and Miroku nodded.
"Well we'll have to see when it happens. I think it is time we go in, it's getting late." Miroku said as he put the fire out. Sango nodded as she followed him into the hut. He stopped when he saw Kagome and Inuyasha asleep against each other. "It's about time my friend." Miroku said as he smiled and went to another wall and pulled out a sleeping bag. Sango got her sleeping bag out and got in ready for bed also smiling to herself.
'I hope everything works out for the best for you Kagome, you deserve it.' Sango thought to herself as she closed her eyes and allowed sleep to overcome her.
