Kagome met up with Inuyasha in the kitchen. Inuyasha blinked at her new look. Kagome had put her hair into a pony-tail, like Sango's hair, and she was wearing black. Kagome never wore black! Inuyasha tossed Kagome her bow -- Kagome caught it-- and her arrows -- she also caught those, too.
Kagome led Inuyasha outside. Kagome was too busy being angry at Naraku to notice a certain gothic cousin of hers following them. Kagome climbed onto Inuyasha's back, and told him to head towards the largest of the buildings. Inuyasha obeyed and started north, where Naraku's minions were.
Zoey quickly got onto Kagome's bike that was resting on the shrine entrance. Zoey was also carrying a book, a very old book. In it, were scribbled notes from a very ancient miko. Zoey had always carried it around, but never told anyone what it was about. It was titled Kyuutai Shikon. In English, 'Indigo Orb'.
Zoey jumped onto Kagome's bike and followed Inuyasha. She knew that this book had the answers to what was going on. Just... She didn't know EXACTLY what was going on... But Zoey had to help, she just felt it in her bones.

Hakudoshi dodged the bullets shot at him, and sometimes, returned them at the shooter, killing them. This is too fun! Hakudoshi thought, jumping on buildings. Screams were heard from behind Hakudoshi, where Kagura was sending tornadoes down at the fleeing humans. Kannah was snatching a few animal souls, but she was instructed not to kill any humans. Kohaku was the one doing all the killing.

Kagome told Inuyasha to stop, and to embrace himself. Before their very eyes, buildings crumbled to the ground. "Good call." Inuyasha said, starting to run again.
"Yeah. Just hurry." Kagome said. Inuyasha sped up and dodged the falling buildings, and flying people.
Just follow the blood... Inuyasha thought. And the blood did lead him to Hakudoshi.
Kagome jumped off of Inuyasha, and he went straight for Hakudoshi, who was jumping, having the time of his life. Kagome glanced around quickly, and saw the purest shard, with a glint of evil. Kannah was holding it, as she walked around, glancing at the dead bodies falling around her. That's why she wasn't killing, she was protecting the shard.
"Oh, no you don't." Kagome said, pulling out an arrow, and arching it upon her finger and bow. "Give me that shard!"
Kannah turned towards Kagome, and blinked once. "You shan't have it." Kannah said simply.
Kagome disagreed. She shot the air, and it glowed pink as it struck Kannah's left arm. Not much damage was done, only the kimono sleeve was missing. "Next time, I won't miss your head." Kagome said, grimacing as she arched an other arrow.
Zoe pulled up and jumped off of Kagome's bike, holding the book in her left hand. The bike crashed into Kannah, knocking the mirror from her hands. Zoey saw the mirror, and knew that was Kannah's power source. Zoey ran as fast as she could and grabbed the mirror before Kannah could get it. "Zoey!" Kagome exclaimed.
"No questions." Zoey said, running from Kannah. As she ran to Kagome, Kagome focused her miko power into the air, and it shone brightly with red and pink. Kagome shot the arrow at Kannah. But since Kannah's mirror wasn't broken, she didn't die.
"Zoey, give me her mirror!" Kagome shouted.
Zoey nodded and tossed it at Kagome. "Now," Kagome ordered, "go at Kannah. As soon as I break the mirror and shot her, get the shard. It's violet." Kagome said. Zoey nodded and scurried towards Kannah.
Kagome took an arrow, and jabbed it into the mirror. It easily shattered, and then Kagome used the same arrow and shot Kannah with it. Kannah squeaked as she vanished.
A small violet shard shone in the air, allowing Zoey to see it. Zoey jumped up and caught it in the air. It burned a little, seeing as it was tainted, but nothing she couldn't handle. Kagome ran over to Zoey, and panted. "Why'd you... Follow us?" Kagome asked.
"I have the key." Zoey said, holding up Kyuutai Shikon. On the bottom, it said: 'Original notes by I, Midoriko'.
Kagome stood straight up and grabbed it from Zoey. Could it be? A real notebook written by Midoriko? Kagome skidded through the pages, to see faded ink. But Shikon no Tama was written over and over. But Midoriko died when she released it... How would she know OF it? Kagome asked herself.
Then the answer was on the last page. A note on a different paper. Kagome dropped the book, and opened the parchment. Kagome let out a soft gasp. The note read:
For any who know of me, and the Shikon no Tama, read this. My final battle is drawing nearer, and nearer. I have a way to end the dragon I will face tomorrow. My heart. But ''twill not be a heart, but an orb. It will be known as the Shikon no Tama.
I feel as though, it will be shattered later on, and one shard will remain with me. A simple spell will purify it, and if any damage was done with it, that spell will reverse it.
Then at the bottom of the note, read a simple, two line spell. Kagome took a deep breath and put the spell in her pocket.
"Kagome! What are you doing? You should do that--"
"First, Kagura and Hakudoshi must die." Kagome pointed to the two characters.
"What about the boy slaughtering innocent people?" Zoey asked, pointing to Kohaku.
"Can't help it. He's being controlled. Just focus on them. I want you to distract Kagura, the girl on the feather. Then I will, hopefully, shoot her down, and kill her. Inuyasha already has Hakudoshi." Kagome said. Zoey nodded as she picked up Kyuutai Shikon.
Kagome and Zoey headed east, where men were just flying around, covered in blood. And the stench of death just lingered in the area. Kagome persisted, as Zoey was on the verge of gagging. "Keep going!" Kagome said, grabbing Zoey's hand, so Kagome could make Zoey continue on running.
A/N: I'm thinking of continuing this. But it'll be five years later. You'll see. Tell me if you want my to continue this. I mean like, a third story to Holiday Wishes!
