Chapter 10
Kikyo's Return
After they had rested, Inuyasha put Ayame on his back and flew to the top of the cliff. Once he reached the top, he put Ayame down. "We better get back." Inuyasha said. But then a familiar voice said, "Going so soon?" Inuyasha and Ayame looked over to see Kikyo. "Kikyo!" Inuyasha said in surprise, "What are you doing here?" "Inuyasha, I think the question is what are you doing?" she replied. Inuyasha stared at her confused. "What are you doing with that wolf demon?" she said with a very mad look on her face. "Well," Inuyasha explained, "We're together." "What ever happened to our relationship Inuyasha?" she yelled. "Since when did we have a relationship, Kikyo?" he replied in an unpleasant tone, "You sealed me to a tree for fifty fucking years and you call that a relationship!" "Only because I was mistaken! I thought you had killed my village, but it ended up being Naraku!" she shouted. "You had your chance Kikyo, but now my heart is taken." Inuyasha said almost with pleasure. "Well maybe you haven't thought your relationship with that wolf demon over thoroughly." She began, "How can two people fall in love with each other in a matter of a day? It's impossible! She is probably just using you!" "Don't believe her Inuyasha!" Ayame cried. "Silence!" Kikyo yelled. Kikyo's soul collectors swarmed around Ayame, embracing her in their grasp. "She could be making you fall in love with her for a reason," Kikyo began, "She will use you to get the jewel shards and kill Naraku, then she will steel them from you and give them to Kouga and he will marry her which will leave you in the dust!" Kikyo spat the words out at Inuyasha. "Dammit!" Inuyasha thought, "What if Kikyo is right? What if she is using me?" "I wouldn't have jumped off that damn cliff if I was using you Inuyasha!" Ayame cried. Inuyasha thought about her words for a moment. "Yes, but if Inuyasha hadn't saved you, you probably could have saved yourself!" Kikyo yelled. "Fuck off you jealous bitch!" Ayame cursed at Kikyo. (Jerry Springer moment! Forgive Ayame for this but if I were her I would be pissed too) "Silence!" Kikyo yelled as the soul collectors tightened their hold on Ayame. "Damn! What do I do!" Inuyasha thought as pressuring moments passed. He now stood between Kikyo and Ayame. He began to regret Ayame's love. "Are you regretting her love, Inuyasha?" Kikyo asked poisonously, it was almost like she could taste the fear in him. "You must decide soon." She said putting more pressure on him. "I-I can't." Inuyasha said weakly. "Fine!" Kikyo yelled, "Then I will choose for you!" She grabbed an arrow and put it in her bow, she pulled it back, and let it fly straight towards Ayame. "NOOOOOO!" Inuyasha screamed. He jumped in front of the arrow trying to block it, but he couldn't. The arrow went zooming past him and hit Ayame straight in the heart. "Uhn…" Ayame gave a small breath as the arrow punctured her chest. The soul collectors let go of Ayame and she fell to the ground. "AYAME!" Inuyasha screamed as he ran to her. He dropped to his knees next to her. He picked her up and held her in his arms. "It's alright Inuyasha, I'll be fine." She said faintly. "No Ayame, don't leave me!" Inuyasha was crying so hard he was shaking, "I love you." He whispered through his tears. "I love you too." She replied. Then they kissed one last time, but then Ayame's body became limp, and her lips cold, and she died. Inuyasha laid her on the ground and he took the arrow from her chest. He put his forehead to hers, trying to hold in his emotions until he could no longer. He looked up to the sky and howled in pain and agony. "Don't pretend you care Inuyasha." Kikyo said rudely. "I DO care! Ayame was the love of my life, someone I felt I could truly open up to, and now you killed her!" Inuyasha hissed at Kikyo. Kikyo gave a small smile of pleasure when Inuyasha mentioned that she had killed Ayame. Inuyasha growled at her poisonous smile. "Ayame's soul will not rest in peace until I AVENGE HER!" Inuyasha yelled. He grabbed the Tetsusiaga, raised it up above his head, ran up to Kikyo, and…dropped it. "How do you plan on avenging Ayame if you aren't going to kill me?" she laughed. Inuyasha just stood there, his eyes becoming red and three purple stripes formed on both of his cheeks. "Inuyasha?" Kikyo asked, curious of his behaviors. He still just stood there. She waved her hand in front of his face. Then he quickly grabbed her wrist, piercing his nails through her skin. "Inuyasha!" she cried. "I will avenge her like this!" he said as he snapped her wrist. "AAAHHH!" she screamed in pain as the bone shattered into pieces. He ripped his shirt off in rage. He then slashed at her with extended claws. He managed to cut her up well enough, but it wasn't good enough for him. He soon began to slaughter Kikyo to shreds. "DIE!" he screamed. Then, a blue light came dancing down from the sky. It danced down and around Ayame's body; it seemed to have an angelic look to it. It then entered Ayame's body; the blue light had been her soul. Ayame took a huge gaping breath as she came back to life. "Huh? What the?" she thought, "I'm alive? But why?" Then she saw Inuyasha crouching over Kikyo's dead body. "Inuyasha!" she called to him happily. He turned around, his claws covered in blood. Then, he jumped up and landed straight in front of Ayame. He just stared at her for a second, a fanged grin coming upon his face. Then Ayame realized that he had red eyes and purple stripes on his face. "Inuyasha, what's the matter?" she asked as she stepped forward toward him. Then he slashed her lower rib just enough to make it bleed. "Inuyasha!" she cried. Then she realized he was in his demonic state. "How do I get him out of it?" she thought. He pushed her to the ground. She landed on her back, right at the edge of the cliff. He then grabbed her wrists pinning her to the ground. He crouched over her, still with that grin on his face. He then teased this skin on her neck with his fangs. "Kagome used the Sit command, but I can't." she thought. His fangs traveled up her neck to her chin and his claw was raised ready to slash her again. Then, she got an idea. She pressed her lips against his and kissed him. Then, his eyes began to turn back into a beautiful amber-gold, and the stripes on his cheeks faded away. When he was back to being a half demon, he realized whom was kissing him. "Ayame!" he said in surprise, "You're alive! But why?" "I asked the same question." She said softly, she was glad he was back to normal. Inuyasha then picked her up and held her in his arms. "Ayame, I love you," He said quite sternly "and I'm sorry for ever doubting your love." "I love you, too. There was a reason Kouga forgot his promise." She said happily, but then her wounds stung and she clutched them. "We better get you to Keade's, she will tend to your wounds." And with that Inuyasha grabbed the Tetsusiaga, put Ayame on his back, and flew to Keade's.
I know what you're thinking…CHEESY! CHEESY! CHEESY! Forgive me, but I had fun writing it. But please tell me what I can improve and if it was cheesy (even if you have already reviewed) Thanks!
