Sesshomaru knew this was too much, and it was a good thing that Sasuke and Sakura came in. "We have an important message, Sesshomaru-sama."
"Nanio? Tell me outside." Sesshomaru walked past them, leaving Kagome to comfort Shippo. The ninjas bowed down to Kagome and left in thin air. "Shippo-chan. Don't cry, uh? You need to understand why I want to kill myself. It is a long story, but I'll try to make it short for you to understand. It started like this….." Kagome told Shippo about what Inuyasha did and what Sesshomaru had done in return. "I can't go living in this world to owe debts to others. I can't stand it. That is what I want. To die, so that I wouldn't have to owe others anymore." Kagome finished. "I see okaa-san. But you don't have to kill yourself. You'll leave the ones you love behind." Shippo wailed. "I know, Shippo-chan. But you need to understand….I don't wanna live…." Kagome hid her eyes behind her bangs. "Okaa-san…." Kagome started crying, and Shippo joined in as well.
Inuyasha heard crying, with the scent of Kagome and Shippo. "Kagome!" Inuyasha ran into her room. "Kagome! Doustanou?" Inuyasha bent down to her. "I wanna die, here…" Kagome kept on crying non-stop. "Okaa-san….." Shippo cried along with her too. "Kagome….Gomen, about that day…I didn't mean to…I was just really mad." Inuyasha wiped the tears down from her face. "I know, Inuyasha…But with Sesshomaru, it is a different story. After you killed me, I just wanted to stay that way, but Sesshomaru revived me. I owe him a big debt though, and I can't stand it any longer. I can't protect him, I can't show him anything, I-I can't open up his heart. That is why I can't owe him. He wanted to uphold his honor, but since he revived me, I'm still in his way." Kagome sniffed. "Kagome, it is my fault you wanna be like this, gomen." Inuyasha got up and left the two to cry their tears out.
MEANWHILE
Sesshomaru was talking to the ninjas as they told him what had become of Hinako. "My lord, she was talking to a mirror. It is a strange mirror though, Sesshomaru-sama. It has an image of a person." Sakura explained. "Go further, into detail." Sesshomaru demanded. "Well, he had misty eyes, red hair, and something black covering him. But the thing that caught me off course was what he had on his forehead. It had the marking saying, "Hell"." Sasuke finished. "I see. Is that it? What did Hinako say?" Sesshomaru asked, concerningly. "She said this, "Yes, my lord. You will get the miko, and I will get prince charming. It is set out. It was a good thing that Sesshomaru-sama is so attached to her. Because when I kill her, he will go on a rampage. Then he would ask me for advice. Then, you understand the rest. He will mate only with me, and only with me." That was pretty much it." Sakura said. "Hmm…Hinako is working with the hell demon. You said misty eyes and a marking on his forehead, correct?" Sesshomaru asked to reassure his answer. "Hai." Both ninjas replied. "You have done well. All I need is to protect Kagome, and her friends, if they somehow had fallen ill, then I will kill Hinako, and place a trap for the hell demon. You both are excused for today." The ninjas bowed and disappeared. 'Hinako is working with…….'
The others gasped in horror as they thought their friend was being greedy.
"Kagome-chan! How can you be like this? I thought you were better than that!" Sango scolded her friend. She knew Kagome wasn't like this. Kagome would never think too much for herself. She would always think about what others think as well before she made a desiscion. "I'm just wondering. Because if I die now, I would release Naraku from hell, and the whole thing will start over again in another generation!" Kagome cried out. She never liked to yell at her friends, but this was when they went the wrong road. "Kagome, gomen….I thought you were greedy and wanted to live longer than the rest of us." Sango muttered. "Gomen, Sango, for yelling, but you need to understand. I don't want that hell guy coming back to our world. He should stay where he belongs. I need to know how!" Kagome was desperate. It was a good thing Sesshomaru was eavesdropping on them. "I can help, or should I rephrase that. I can be of an assistance." Sesshomaru chuckled. "Fine, we need all the help we can get." Sango sighed. "Eavesdropping, aren't we? I thought you left." Kagome inched a bit closer to him, just like what she usually did with Inuyasha when he got suspicious. "What? You have a problem, wench?" Sesshomaru back away. 'Same like his brother, except ruder.' Kagome thought and raised a brow. She sat back down in her chair. "Sit down, everyone. I will explain how we can do it, so that it will work on Kagome." Sesshomaru blinked and sat down, the others following the same thing.
