"Talking"
'Thinking'
MemoriesStressed
The sky seemed like a dark shade of gray form her point of view. Everything her acted like it was revolted because she was human or some type of food. Certain plants would try and coil up her leg and feed on ki. One tree went as far as to reach out and grab her. The world reminded her like earth, it was deadly and wouldn't hesitate to kill you off. Kagome smiled as she pulled on her hood to hide everything but her eyes. She wanted them to see the threat of her master as she gave the message. Kohaku pulled his own hood up and used his gas mask to cover his mouth; he didn't care about delivering the message.
"Do you think they'll check the Western Lands first?" Kohaku asked.
"I'm counting on it," Kagome replied with a hidden grin.
Kioku mewed as he transformed to a size that would rival Kirara. His form didn't have the flames coming off his tail or paws. He was like a giant indigo cat waiting for his master's bidding. Kagome scratched behind his ear and he purred as he leaned into her touch.
"Kohaku," Kagome whispered as she looked away from him and Kioku.
"Yes Kagome," Kohaku carefully replied, she sounded saddened.
"If I…when I lose control will you make sure I won't do anything bad?" Kagome asked.
"Of course," Kohaku assured her.
Kohaku looked onward to the graves and let his mind wander. Ever since the Shikon no Kakera had been removed from him, he had been able to resist Naraku's control. He could still be used as a puppet, but he was more aware. As he coped with the memories that returned he found Kagome slowly closing off. Kohaku had vowed to never let her become what he became. He wanted to free her from the cage she willingly stayed in. So, he helped her out when she was the puppet with no emotions. He would always stop her from slaughtering the women and children. Kohaku was always there to stop her from slaughtering the weak.
"Thank you," Kagome whispered.
"Kagome," the voice sang out.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome questioned as she walked around the Goshinboku.
"Come to me my sweet Kagome," Inuyasha lovingly called.
"I've been waiting for hours," Kagome teased as she ran around to where he was.
"I've been waiting too," Inuyasha darkly said.
Kagome walked closer to him and let her hand lay on his shoulder. His own hand covered hers as he turned around and embraced her. Kagome smiled as she snuggled into his embrace. His hands came up and rest on her shoulders as he tightened his grip. Kagome's eyes snapped open when she felt the pressure increase. Fear filled her form as she tried to pull away. His deep chuckled chilled the air and froze her soul to the core. Kicking him in shin, she pulled away and stumbled backwards. A snarl filled the air.
"Bitch," Inuyasha snarled as he glared at her.
"You're not him!" Kagome growled. He laughed at her again; the cold amber gaze was filled with hate.
"I was going to let you die happy, but now I've changed my mind," Inuyasha sighed as he took a step forward.
"You're not him! Get away!" Kagome screamed as she ran through the forest.
Kagome hissed as the branches whipped her face and legs as she ran. She didn't want to believe that this was Inuyasha. A tree root tripped her and sent her flying to the ground. Hands were cut on rocks and dirt covered her face. Fear filled her as she heard the footsteps stop. Kagome rolled over to her back and cried out in pain. He landed next to her and pressed his foot on her sternum. Kagome let the tears fall and tried to pull his foot away.
"Why?" Kagome coughed.
"You're not needed," Inuyasha sweetly said.
"Liar," Kagome gasped as she heard a crack.
"Once your soul is free Kikyo can be resurrected again," Inuyasha calmly explained.
Kagome growled as she touched his bare skin on his ankle with her palms. She squeezed and released what Miko ki she could. Inuyasha growled and jumped away. Kagome took off towards the village in renewed hope. Her ribs ached as she tried to take in breaths. Kagome stumbled and fell to her knees when she reached the village, but it wasn't from pain.
Kohaku miserably sighed as he watched her eyes glaze over and become truly empty. Her gaze was focused on the approaching figures ahead. Kohaku stepped back and watched as she straddled Kioku and take to the air. The crescent moon on Kioku's forehead began to glow and the same symbol appeared on Kagome's forehead. Kagome waived her hand in the air bringing it towards the ground and acting like she was throwing something into the air. The ground began to split and crack over the graves. Bodies rose from their resting place.
"Are you the one that sent the threat?" Suiichi calmly demanded as his eyes focused on her.
"My master sent the threat, but we are the threat," Kagome unemotionally answered.
"She's nothing but a Ningen," Hiei insulted with a jaded gaze.
"We've dealt with powerful Ningens before," Suiichi reminded.
"She has the scent of a Ningen, but she doesn't have her own scent," Hiei decided to say. His crimson gaze turned to the boy and found that the boy was masking his scent.
"Come and dance with my minions," Kagome softly said as the corpses moved forward.
Suiichi pulled the rose from his hair and let his youki flow into it. His emerald eyes flashed with a bit of anger as he held the rose whip in his hand. Hiei rushed forward and the sound of metal clashing against metal echoed. Kohaku had barely seen Hiei coming, but years of training paid off. Kagome pointed at Suiichi and watched as bodies piled on top of him. Kagome raised an expecting eyebrow as the pile continued to grow. Kohaku pushed Hiei away and jumped back. He noticed it was the same guy from earlier. He groaned. Kagome wouldn't forgive herself for killing him.
"Don't over do it," Kohaku warned her.
"It's not my fault he's weak," Kagome emptily responded.
Bodies went flying as Suiichi lunged toward her. Kagome frowned and held her hand up in front of her. Suiichi hit the barrier and broke a tombstone as he crashed. Hiei kept attacking with his katana as Kohaku was forced to back up and block. Kohaku grew tired of this very quickly. Taking the chain from his Kusarikama, he tossed it Hiei. Hiei expecting it to go for his sword went to jump away. The chain wrapped around his neck and pulled him down to the ground. A growl from Hiei signaled that he was pissed to have missed such an obvious attack.
Suiichi stood to his feet and removed the bamboo shoot from behind his ear. Kagome watched as he sent bamboo spikes towards her barrier. She didn't enjoy the fact his youki was purified with each touch. Suiichi finally sensed what was wrong with the barrier; it was made of pure ki. Kagome pointed at Suiichi and the corpses messily attacked him as she watched. Kohaku dodged the fire that spiral towards him. The chain from his kusarikama had already melted into oblivion. Kagome jumped off of Kioku and landed on the ground.
"Go help him," Kagome ordered Kioku as she sent the dead towards Suiichi.
"Why are you doing this?" Suiichi demanded as he sliced another corpse in half.
"It is my master's wishes," Kagome whispered as she forced the dead to pull themselves together.
"Spirit gun!" Kagome turned around and threw up her barrier.
She watched as the attack went through her barrier and through her stomach. The crescent moon upon her forehead vanished and the dead became lifeless. Yusuke ran up and aimed another attack when laughter filled the field. Kohaku jumped into a nearby tree and froze when he heard the laughter. His eyes widened in fear as he raced toward Kagome.
"Stay back," Kagome warned Kohaku. He hesitated but remained away from her.
"A sneak attack is so low for a human, but I have had worse," Kagome explained as the flesh began to heal.
Kuwabara gagged on his own breath as he watched the organs move back into place. The muscle began to rebuild itself and the skin soon formed over it. Kagome reached into her sash and pulled out a hive about the size of her fist. She threw it in the air and released the Saimyosho. She watched as they took off to the West to fulfill their job.
"Some weapon," Yusuke mocked.
"Your ki is pure, and therefore can pass my barriers," Kagome mumbled to herself.
"It's time to go," Kohaku warned her.
Her eyes turned to him as Hiei brought his Katana against the boy's throat. The lifeless eyes sparked with rage and she pulled out a string of beads. Yusuke laughed at this and Suiichi frowned. Kagome threw them in the air and they began to glow a pure white.
"Kill the little hanyou," Kagome spat.
Hiei was about to finish the boy when he felt something coming at him. He jumped away and watched glowing white beads stopped in front of Kohaku. Kohaku's brown eyes watered with fear as the beads took off after Hiei.
"What the hell is that?" Yusuke demanded as he prepared charge her.
"My power," Kagome coldly answered.
Kohaku ran over to Kagome and pulled on her sleeve. Her attention remained on the tense spirit detectives. Kohaku turned around when he heard a grunt of pain. One of the beads had managed to pass through Hiei's leg. Kohaku began to panic, with enough attacks Hiei would be purified.
"We must go, we're disobeying orders!" Kohaku urgently pleaded.
"No," Kagome said as she pushed him away, "Death is a threat."
Kohaku signaled Kioku towards him and had him stand behind Kagome. Yusuke fired his shotgun and Kagome growled. She withdrew her katana and sliced the attack in half leaving it to dissolve in the air.
"I shall gladly take your life instead," Kagome hissed as the beads changed course. They started to fly towards Yusuke.
Kohaku began to worry;he knew her intent was murder. Kohaku embraced her and began to cry into her haori. Kagome tensed and the beads stood still in air.
"You're scaring me sister," Kohaku whispered.
"They must die," Kagome tried to fight him.
"What would Shippo think?" Kohaku asked as he watched her pass out. He set her on Kioku and turned back to the detectives.
"Cowards!" Yusuke called out as he ran towards them.
Kohaku frowned and tossed a bomb to the ground. Purple gas covered the area and caused everyone to look away and cough.
"This was the threat," Kohaku reminded.
Yusuke cursed as the smoke cleared. They were gone and the cemetery was desecrated to the fullest. Kuwabara and Suiichi walked over to Hiei who was leaning against the tree. His cloak had bead-sized holes in it. He managed to get hit twice by the beads.
"Did you read them?" Suiichi asked.
"The boy was blocking his thoughts and the other one had no thoughts," Hiei explained.
"Wow," Kuwabara muttered as he touched the cloak. Hiei scowled as he ripped the cloak away.
"What is it?" Suiichi asked.
"The energy's so pure it even hurts me," Kuwabara answered.
"This is great!" Yusuke shouted as he laughed.
"He's finally cracked," Kuwabara mumbled as the two youkai could do nothing but agree.
"Finally! A real challenge," Yusuke shouted.
'How can she do necromancy and have pure energy?' Kurama questioned.
'That's good question,' Hiei agreed.
