Regret of Deceiving

Chapter 12

The Truth And Goodbyes Part One

Last Time:

Kagome stopped her grandpa and he turned around and looked at her. With tears spilling out of her eyes and the jewel glowing. She hugged him and said,

"Thanks for everything grandpa"

After that Kagome continued her training which grandpa said will be her last day since she knew more than he and her mother did combined.

Now:

Inuyasha and Miroku:

Inuyasha and Miroku got into their cars and headed for the teen night club ErA, where they work as bartenders. While Inuyasha was driving he couldn't stop thinking about what Miroku said to him.

'What does a curse have to do with Kagome's life? What does her becoming darker?

Have to do with the curse and her life being in danger. How is Kikyo a part of this? I'm so confused! Well at least I can get some of my questions answered.'

Inuyasha and Miroku finally got to work and they parked their cars. They went and got their bartender uniforms and headed for the locker room. Once they changed into their cute uniforms they started to set everything up. Miroku swept the floor and Inuyasha pulled out all the chairs and tables. Then Miroku set up the DJ area while Inuyasha wiped all the tables. When they were done with that they went to the bar. Miroku was washing the glasses and plates, and Inuyasha was wiping the stoles and bar table.

"Inuyasha you have to tell you damn brother that he has to hire some other people or at least help us set up once in a while."

"I know, but he doesn't trust anyone else working for him"

"Well I know he doesn't really trust us"

"Yeah"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"So are you gonna tell everything you know now?"

"I guess"

"I wanna hear how Kikyo's a part of this and what she did."

"Fine, but you won't like what you'll hear, your not gonna believe it"

"Try me"

"Fine"

So Miroku told Inuyasha everything Kikyo said to Sango yesterday in the nurse's office. To refresh your memory this is what happened:

"What the fuck do you want Kikyo!"

"I just wanted to tell you to warn Kagome to stay away from Inuyasha. He's mine now and forever will be. He chose me over her and there's nothing she can do about it."

"Why are you trying to do this to her I thought you guys were friends!"

"Friends? That's stupid word I was never friends with Kagome. She was always a head of me with everything and then when Inuyasha came to the school in Middle School I fell in love with him but I couldn't get him to even look at me. And then Kagome got his attention some how and they got super close. I love him and I just stood and watched Kagome and him get so close to each other. It drew me crazy! Kagome was always smarter than me, prettier than me, more athletic than me, and more well liked. I wanted something that would show her that she can't always get what she wants. I love Inuyasha a lot and I want him more than anyone and now I have him and watching her suffer and how she acted after you were taken to the nurses office made me smile and happy with accomplishment."

"How could you do this to her she did so many things for you!"

"That was the past. So tell her what I said and tell her the battle's beginning."

After Miroku told Inuyasha, Inuyasha mouth was wide open and he couldn't believe it.

"I don't believe she said that to Sango about Kagome!"

"Well believe it! Don't you think it's strange how Kikyo was happy when Kagome transformed? And how she said she accomplished something? What could she have accomplished!"

"I don't know Kikyo never acted like this before"

"Really? Well think back do you remember anything that you thought was weird happen?"

"Hush…well…not that I…wait! There was one time I was on a date with her during spring break when she went off for a little while and when I followed her she was talking to some guy in the shadows. I forgot about that!"

"How could you forget idiot!"

"Sorry I have a bad memory!"

"Whatever! Well I think it's strange how Kikyo's in this, but she did say something to Kagome this morning that must have been disturbing. I mean Kagome acted totally different today."

"I know she totally ignored me"

"I wouldn't blame her, but her hair color changed midnight blue, her eyes where blue and then got darker, and she didn't eat or smile."

"Really? She didn't ear!"

"Yeah and she lied to her friends about why she looks different."

"Well she doesn't want them to know that she's a special miko."

"Yeah that's true, but you told someone anyway!"

"Can we just drop it for a little while and you can bother me about it all you want after you tell me everything about Kagome and accurse that's putting her life in jeopardy."

Miroku then told about Kagome's curse and family history and how people are after her life. Also if the demon miko comes into the world that the only way to defeat it is with her life.

"And that's everything and that's why you shouldn't have told Kikyo!"

Inuyasha's eyes were big and he couldn't say anything.

"It's all your fault for everything that's happening to Kagome and if she dies it's all your fault!"

'What have I done? Kagome…'

"I didn't know…"

"Well duh you didn't know! Kagome didn't tell anyone!"

"Now I see what's going on. I have to talk to her tomorrow."

"Yeah you do!"

Now back to Kagome:

Now Kagome's done with her training and she was saying good bye to her grandpa,

"Thanks grandpa for everything."

"Your welcome Kagome, remember you have to come by and visit sometime since you won't be here that much anymore."

When grandpa said to come and visit Kagome started to cry.

'Oh grandpa! After tomorrow I can never come and visit! I'll remember you forever!'

"Okay grandpa I'll try."

"Now Kagome don't cry or else your gonna make me cry!"

Kagome smiled and wiped her tears away.

"Okay"

Kagome turned around and started to walk down the shrine stairs.

"And Kagome…"

Kagome turned around and looked at her grandpa.

"Fight hard and strong"

Kagome nodded and looked at the shikon jewel that she wore around her neck. She then waved good bye for the last time and continued going down the stairs.

'Good bye forever grandpa'

Kagome got in her car and drove home.

When she got home she parked her car and saw her dad was home. She took her school bags and put the jewel under her t-shirt.

'he must be angry'

She walked into the house and went in the living room where her father was. When he saw her he stood up and walked over to her.

Slap

She feel to the ground and put her hand to her cheek where he hit her. He father couldn't see her eyes since they were shielded by her bangs.

'This is the last time your gonna hit'

"Where the hell were you?"

"…"

"speak wretch!"

He kicked her hard in the stomach and Kagome taste blood in her mouth.

"I was at grandpa's"

"What the fuck! Why were you at that damn old shit's house!"

Kagome's eyes shot wide open and her pupils turned pink.

"…don't call him that…"

"what'd you say!"

He was about to kick her again but kagome grabbed his foot before it hit her body. Her dad looked at her with a shocked expression. Kagome was surrounded by a pink aura and the shikon jewel was strongly glowing. His eyes widened with shock and fear.

"Kagome?"

Kagome got up and stood right in front of her father. She could still taste blood in her mouth so she spat at him. The bloody spit hit his shoulder and he wiped it off and looked at her.

"I used to fear you, but now it looks you fear me. You beat me, you disowned me, you used to yell at me! You said you can never call me your daughter! I held all my pain, suffering, anger, and hate from everyone even you. I never told anyone what you were doing to me. But I can't take it anymore! I'm losing my life! I lost the boy I love! I lost my mother! I lost all the loving and caring I once had!"

"Kagome…"

"DON'T SAY MY NAME! I HATE YOU! YOU WERE NEVER LIKE THID BEFORE!"

Kagome stuck out her palm toward him and a pink light started to form.

"There's a dark spell over you the anger, sadness, fear, and hatred you have made it take effect."

Her dad was in fear his mouth was wide open and he didn't know what to do.

"What happened to you?"

"This! This is me! This is the reason mom died! This is the reason my life is in danger! This is the reason why I go to grandpa's and the reason why I never let my feelings out!"

"…I…I"

"I AM A DEMON AND PURE MIKO! And I am the heir to the curse set on my mom's side of the family! This curse and the people who wanted her dead is what killed her!"

Kagome took a step closer to him. He could feel the aura on his body.

"And now father I am going to get rid of that spell"

The pink light in her palm grew bigger. Kagome's dad closed his eyes and wished he would not die. Kagome's eyes glowed pink and she shot the pink light from her palm at her father. But before it hit him Kagome say that her father's eyes were closed and tears started to fall.

When the light hit him and it receded, her father fell to his knees and then fell onto the ground. Kagome's eyes turned back to normal and the aura around her disappeared. The jewel stopped glowing and Kagome leaned against the wall since she used up so much of her energy since she used it to get rid of the dark spell.

Her dad lift his head up and he saw Kagome. His eyes widened when he saw blood trickle down from her mouth.

"Kagome!"

Kagome opened her eyes and saw that her dad was okay and that the spell was gone. She whispered,

"father"

and she fell to the ground. Kagome's dad got up so fast and rushed to Kagome. He wiped away the blood from her mouth and he hugged her really tight making sure Kagome felt that he was hugging her.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry my daughter."

Those were the last words Kagome heard before she fell to sleep.

She woke up around one o'clock and she found she was in her room. Her stomach was bandaged and she had a bandaged on her cheek. She got up despite the pain that hit her and walked to her father's room. When she walked in the only light that was on was his bedside lamp. He was sitting on the edge of the bed was his hands cupped and his head down. Kagome could see that he was crying.

"Dad?"

His head shot up right when Kagome said dad. He stood up and walked to her. She just looked at him confused and scared. He could see it in her eyes. He then grasped her in a hug.

"Ohh Kagome I'm so sorry!"

Kagome felt tears come down and she hugged him back.

"Dad!"

"I'm sorry Kagome I didn't realize what I was doing."

"sniff"

"After that time when we had that tour around your school I felt anger in me all the time. There was that one girl that I last remember…Kikyo was her name."

"Kikyo!"

"here Kagome you should sit down"

They both walked into her room and they both sat on her bed.

"What happened to you? You know, you said you were a miko."

Kagome looked at her dad in the eyes and said,

"Dad I'm going to tell you something that has been a family curse."

Kagome told him everything she knew about the curse and that Kikyo's family was out to kill her. She told him about her training with grandpa and how her mother died. Her dad just looked at her with surprise.

"So your life is in danger now?"

Kagome nodded and her dad hugged her even tighter.

"And dad I have something to do tomorrow. It's very important, but after I might never come back home again."

"I understand Kagome you need to run away so you won't get killed and end this curse. But promise me once its broken come back home."

"Okay"

'I'm sorry dad after tomorrow I'll never come home never ever.'
