Disclaimer: If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Ask Inuyasha if you really want to know. I'm sure he does. (BTW I don't own Inu and co.!)

Title of "episode"(Me interrupting)
(Last time)
As Inuyasha sped towards Keade's hut a pair of eyes followed, unnoticed by the hanyou. Go. Go and do what was done fifty years ago. Build then destroy what was never there! Tear their soles! Rip their hearts out. Claim what was never there!
(This week on Inuyasha)
enter Kikyo, anger from beyond the grave
She practically had him in her hands, yet he still wasn't in hell! 'How? How am I supposed to bring Inuyasha where he rightfully belongs when my own reincarnation wont let me?'
Kikyo walked through the forest with the company of her soul stealers. She had recently left another village in fear they would discover her for what she truly was. Dead. A wandering lost part of a soul, not even whole. But that was ok with her because the one that had betrayed her so long ago would soon be in hell, forever with her.
Then the soul stealers left. "Lady Kikyo! Lady Kikyo! Wait! We have a gift for you!"
The miko turned around to find some of the village children running towards her. "Children. You shouldn't be this far from the village. What if a demon found you?"
"We know Lady Kikyo."
"It's just that we have a gift for you!"
"Yes! We made it ourselves!"
"I – We hope you like it Lady Kikyo!" The four children held up a package. "Put it next to your bed when you get home!"
Kikyo smiled and took the gift. It was wrapped in a very thin whit paper. She started to unfold it and in side was a… "It's a protection talisman! It will keep demons and the undead away!"
Kikyo could already feel the talisman's warding pulse through her. "Thank you children. Now you best be off."
"Ok Bye!" "Come and visit!" "Bye!" "Don't forget us!"
As soon as the children were out of sight, Kikyo threw the gift into the air and destroyed it with an arrow. 'Any longer and I could have been destroyed' But the thought lingered no longer as she sensed someone running not too far off from where she was. "Inuyasha."
"We're almost there Kagome," Inuyasha said more to himself than the girl. He was still confused on whether he liked Kagome as more or not. He was sure he loved Kikyo but every time he thought of her thoughts of Kagome interrupted. Yet every time he thought of Kagome thoughts of Kikyo interrupted. 'What's wrong with me? I can't love them both! … Can I? No! Kagome, friend. Nothing more.'
(Kagome's dream) It was completely dark as Kagome walked down a hidden trail. Mist swirled around her feet at each step she took. "Inuyasha?" she called out into the blackness. Then she heard it. A twig that was never there, snapping. "Oh!" was all she could get out as Kagome felt burning pains in both of her arms. She looked down to see four arrows (two in each arm) pinning her to a dead, twisted tree that had yet again appeared out of nowhere. Blood was pooling already. So much. So much. She looked back up. "Kikyo. Why?"
"Because Inuyasha shall follow me to hell. He does not belong here. Not with the living. This is not his world. He should never have spent any amount of life with you but no matter. He will soon be dead with me!"
"How Kikyo? How? He loved you! He didn't betray you! That was Naroku! He tricked you! You have to believe me! Not a day has passed that Inuyasha has stopped loving you. I can see it in his eyes."
"Enough! Silence!" and at that the undead miko knocked an arrow and aimed it at Kagome's heart. "Now you shall feel what I feel. Nothing!"
The arrow flew fast and true. "Inuyasha!" It hit.
She opened her eyes. "SIT!" Inuyasha did a face plant just barely avoided what would have been a lethal arrow. Luckily Kagome landed on Inuyasha's arms and was unharmed. She sat up and immediately could feel the pain in her jaw and arm.
Inuyasha was so concerned for Kagome's sake that he hadn't even noticed Kikyo's soul collectors, and eventually her arrow. "What was that for!" but all Kagome could do was look painfully in the direction of where Kikyo had been moments before. "Do you want to break another arm? And what the hell are you looking at!"
Kagome shakily stood up and walked over to the tree where the arrow had hit. 'It's gone now, but there's still the mark it left. Maybe Inuyasha can smell who it was.' Kagome was hoping that she had imagined everything but a feeling in the pit of her stomach was telling her otherwise.
Inuyasha stood up and walked over to where Kagome was standing. He bent down and sniffed the place in the tree that Kagome was pointing at. "What? Nothing. Now if your done, do you think we could leave? We're almost there.
Kagome sighed. 'Maybe it was all a dream.' She climbed into Inuyasha's arms and they headed off.
"How did she know I was there? She must be more powerful than I once thought. Come." The soul gatherers surrounded her and they disappeared from view.
(A/N): So how did you all like it? Sorry it was so late. I'll try to up date this week but the chapters might have to become shorter. Oh well. Review please! Asereht
