Chapter 7: Walk through the Fire

Sesshomaru roared with rage. Where was Rin? Why wasn't she in her bed? Sesshomaru looked around the trashed room. He flipped over the bed and searched the entire palace before he fell to his knees.

He needed Rin. She wasn't there. It had to be the work of that damn demon! Sesshomaru stood up and exited the castle, running as fast as a bullet toward the castle.

Kagome stood by an abandoned campfire. The camp looked like it had hastily left. There were pots and pans lying by the fire and food scraps covered in dirt.

Kagome took a deep breath. So it was only she who would be facing Sweet. Kagome tightened her grip on her bow. She would make that demon pay. She would make him bleed. She would make him scream. Kagome put her hand over the fire.

" touch the fire, and it freezes me
I look into it, and it's black
Why can't I feel?
My skin should crack and peel
I want the fire back
Now, through the smoke, she calls to me
To make my way across the flame
To save the day
Or maybe melt away
I guess it's all the same"

Kagome turned and started to walk toward the castle I the distance.

"So I will
walk through the fire
'Cause where else can I turn?
I will
Walk through the fire
and let it..."

Meanwhile Sweet stood at the castle window. Rin was tied up in a chair by his throne.

"she is
Drawn to the fire
some people...
will never learn
and she will
Walk through the fire
and let it..."

Then by the team's fire Inuyasha looks back at the woods.

"Will this do a thing to change her?

Am I leaving Kagome in danger?

Is Kagome to far gone to care?"

Miroku walked to Inuyasha.

"What if Kagome can't defeat it?"

Sango stood next to him.

"Pervert is right were needed,

or we could just sit around and glare"

Inuyasha nodded.

"We'll see it through

that's what were always here to do,"

They all sang together.

"So we will
walk through the fiiiiiiiiiiiire"

Kagome stood outside the castle entrance and slowly looked back behind her.

"So one by one, they turn from me
I guess my friends can't face the cold
what can't we face?
But why I froze,
not one among them knows
and never can be told"

Kagome kicked open the front door and looked down to the throne where Sweet stood and glared.

"These endless days
are finally ending in a blaze!"

Inuyasha and the rest of them walk in behind her singing.

"And we are
Caught in the fire
The point of no return
So we will
Walk through the fire
And let it burn
Let it buuuuuuuuuuurn
Let it buuuuuuuuuuurn
And let it burn!"
