~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mikuro pulled the cloth off her hand and the wind tunnel started working.
InuYasha's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe the girl was actually going to kill him.
"InuYasha! Prepare... to... DIE!!!" Mikuro screamed.
InuYasha felt his body being sucked into the darkness. He closed his eyes. He hadn't believed Mikuro would actually try to kill him. But, for the first time, he realized how serious and powerful Mikuro really was.
"InuYashaaaa!!!!!" a male voice yelled from behind.
InuYasha was positive he was going to die soon. His body was flying through the air...
THUMP!
His eyes popped open, and he was on the ground.
A few feet away, Miroku was standing in front of Mikuro, his wind tunnel hand on hers. The two hands stuck to eachother like glue.
Before he passed out, InuYasha got a good look at Mikuro. Her expression was shocked, and there were tears in her eyes. But the thing nobody could miss was the feeling her eyes were giving off.
The feeling of being scared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"She tried to WHAT!?!?!?" Kagome's voice screeched.
InuYasha was resting nearby, a wet cloth on his head.
"I can't believe she tried to kill him! Why? Did you ask, Miroku?" Kagome sounded shocked.
"Of course." Miroku answered. "But she didn't give me much to work with. She just started crying and murmuring something."
"Why would Mikuro do something like that?" Sango asked in disbeleif.
"I don't know." Miroku replied. "But she's stronger than she looks, I can tell you that much."
Meanwhile, Mikuro was lying on the cold floor.
"Time dances on walls... And seasons go by... Love starts and falls... I must wonder why."
She was singing... She had no clue were she had learned these lyrics... But the words came to her so suddenly, and she felt like she was close to them. She felt like it was appropriate to sing them.
"Acts like love should... It comes from the heart... If only it could... Till death do us part..."
She didn't know. It was a mystery to her.
"Dreams come true... My time to die... Goodbye to you... And the blood will dry..."
Ok, it was freaking her out.
Mikuro sat up. These songs were all so gross and gory... But she felt close to them... Why? Just... why?
She sighed. Why did she try to kill InuYasha? She shouldn't have, she knew that...
Her eyes filled with tears. Would it be better if she just left? Probably...
Then that was it. It was her time to leave. Whether she lived or died, no one would care... Much...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mikuro? InuYasha wanted to apologize for something... He didn't tell me... why... Mikuro?" Sango looked under the blanket.
Panicking, she looked through everything. "Are you playing games, Mikuro? Don't, it's not nice!" Sango freaked out.
Moving the blankets, a white cloth fell out. Sango reached over to get it.
It's a... poem? She thought, reading through it.
InuYasha:
What it feels like
I thought you knew
What it feels like
To be a Hanyou
Never again
Will I be naive
Never again
Will I ever believe
Love is a waste
Of life and sweet time
Love is a waste
And so is this rhyme
I won't apologize
Because you should die
I won't apologize
And you know why
It hurts so much
So I decided to run
It hurts so much
See what you've done?
Kagome, I promise
Someday I'll show
Kagome, I promise
I'll kill Kikyou
"Holy shit!" Sango yelled. "She ran away!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mikuro stumbled through the fields. She had walked all night, and her legs were aching. They were also weak... She had lost alot of blood when she accidently ran through a thorn bush.
Her eyesight was blurry now, and she could see a kind of cave in the distance. She could rest in it...
"I can't... make it... Can I?" Mikuro whispered to herself. Why did she run away?
Mikuro remembered her so-called promise to kill Kikyou for Kagome.
"I will keep that promise.." Mikuro urged herself to stand up, and she trudged towards the cave.
"I'm... so close..." Mikuro muttered, right before she collapsed to her knees...
A figure walked up to her, but Mikuro could only make out a man with armour and fur, and long black hair... A demon, maybe? ((A/N: Guess who?))
"It's a kid..." The man's voice said, kind of suprised but greedily. "Talk about luck with finding breakfast..."
Mikuro could see light blue eyes looking at her. Her eyes filled up with tears. Was she going to get eaten by a demon and die like this, fighting for what she believed in?
Mikuro's eyes closed, and she prepared to accept her fate.
Then, a sharp image of Kagome came through her mind and her eyes shot open.
"I made a promise to Kagome! To help her!" Mikuro yelled, and her vision came into focus.
"Kagome-!?" The demon started, startled.
"I swear I'll keep it to her... And kill Kikyou... And when I'm done, I WILL kill InuYasha!" Mikuro yelled, even though this stranger couldn't possibly know who or what she was talking about.
Mikuro's legs went out, and she fell to the ground, waiting for the pain of the ground to come.
It never came. Instead, Mikuro fell into strong arms and felt herself being lifted and carried somewhere.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This certain demon was very confused. He has just been looking for breakfast, and what did he find? A girl, babbling on about killing InuYasha... Feh, that was HIS job!
But still... A promise to Kagome? To help her? He couldn't kill any one of Kagome's friends, right? Well, except InuYasha, but he was an exception.
"Breakfast ready?" Another demon yelled out, and the man twitched. "She isn't for breakfast! I'll kill you if anyone touches her before I'm done!"
Therefore, he brought the small child to his room and sat her down on the edge. Her legs were bleeding terribly, and he felt guilty letting her bleed like that.
Kagome had once left some bandage-type-things with him in case he got hurt last time she visited...
The stranger found them and wrapped the girl's wounds tightly and carefully.
Waking up, Mikuro found herself in a room, with a demon inspecting her legs.
"NANIIIIIIIIIII!?!?!?" she yelled, her eyes getting wide. "Who the heck are you!?"
"A friend of Kagome's..." He replied simply.
"Kagome..." Mikuro repeated. "Let me go! I can't let Kagome be betrayed like this! I have to kill Kikyou and InuYasha!!! For her!"
Mikuro gasped as the mystery man... er... demon... grabbed her wrist and held onto it. "Look, kid, InuYasha is mine to kill, but what's this about helping Kagome?" He asked.
Mikuro's eyes got watery. "InuYasha... betrayed her... He's in love with Kikyou, and... and... Kagome doesn't know... And she loves him... INUYASHA, YOU JERK!!!!!!!!!" Mikuro suddenly screamed.
The still-unknown demon grunted as he calmed her down. "Tell me again, and make sense this time." he told her calmly.
Mikuro sighed, and started from the beginning.
"So you belong to the monk, eh?" He asked her when she finished.
"I take that as an insult." Mikuro scoffed.
Turning to her, he said, "I don't believe we've introduced eachother properly..."
"My name is Mikuro." She answered, feeling comftorable with this stranger.
"Let's make a deal... We can join forces.. We can kill this Kikyou and InuYasha together... I'm strong, you need help, it's for Kagome... What about it?" The complete stranger offered. "I'll even let you stay here!"
Mikuro looked wowed. "You mean it?" She asked, excitedly.
"Sure. For Kagome." He replied.
Mikuro nodded. "Alright! Yes, let's do it!" She agreed, and stuck out her hand.
He shook it, smirking rather evily. "Nice doing bussiness with you... Name's Kouga."
