Chapter 6 - The Demon Inside
Inuyasha's body shape began to change. His chest pushed in, showing his ribs in a freakishly manner. His hands, vained, and claws sharpened. His eyes darkened to a deep red while two purple strips suddenly rip down his cheeks. His fangs lengthened and sharpened. Inuyasha had become a full demon, like never before. Never has he turned demon in his life, but it was unbarable to see him this way. His strength was uncontrolable.
Inuyasha sprang up as he quickly dusted through the night. Everyone in his way, he killed. Clawing them until red painted the pavement floor.
Inuyasha quickly leaped up onto a building and climbed up to the top of a sky scraper. He peered down, growling and huffing.
"WHY ME ?" Inuyasha yelled at the top of his lungs as the words echoed throughout the city.
----------------
Kagome looked up, out of her window alarmed by the sound.
"I.. Inuyasha ?" Kagome stuttered as stood up.
Kagome put her fist to her chest and her heart began to race.
I know.. what he did was.. wasn't right.. but somehow, I just know.. something is wrong..
Kagome quickly sprinted downstairs and grabbed her jacket, running off like a rabbit in danger.
"Kagome !" Sango shouted, waving at Kagome as Kagome gave a wave back.
I got to do this Sango, I'm sorry.
"Inuyasha !" Kagome shouted as she ran across the city.
Kagome ran through the city park as she finally got to a road, smelling blood everywhere. Kagome began to slow down as she covered her mouth and shivered.
What.. what is this !
Suddenly someone put their hand on Kagome's shoulder.
Kagome shrieked as she pushed the person off, "GET AWAY !"
The person grabbed hold of Kagome as he smiled, "Hey Kagome, it's just me."
Kagome looked up.
Who is this ?
The man laughed as he whispered to Kagome, "I'm Miroku, Inuyasha's friend, of course."
Tears rolled out of Kagome's eyes as she forced a smile, "Miroku .. !"
Kagome held onto Miroku's chest as she began to cry.
"Inuyasha.. he.. he.. he cheated on me ! I don't know why but .. I still love him ! I know there's something wrong but.. it seems as though I can't help him !"
Kagome sobbed, gripping tightly to Miroku.
Miroku patted Kagome, "Hey.. Kagome.. I know what it's like.. It's okay. We all have some one to love, and no matter what they do to us, we just can't forget them."
Kagome sniffled as she finally began to dry her tears, "W-What do you mean ?"
Miroku smiled, "Kagome, Inuyasha didn't cheat on you."
Kagome pushed Miroku off gently, "B-But.. I heard.."
Miroku shook his head, "Kikyo, the girl he was with, was using him."
Kagome was questioned as she blinked, "W-What !"
Miroku nodded, "I, I was outside your house, the moment you heard Kikyo and Inuyasha. I was indeed spying on them."
Kagome turned her head to the side.
"Right after Kikyo walked out of your house, upset after you ran out crying, Kikyo disappeared."
Kagome turned her head back, shouting, "What !"
Miroku sighed, "Kikyo.. Kikyo wasn't real."
Kagome was confused. She backed away from Miroku, giving him a blank stare, "I.. I don't get it."
Miroku approached Kagome, "Kagome, this world isn't how you think it is. People can do things, enemies. Inuyasha is a target. Kikyo was made by a spell."
Kagome shook her head, "I don't believe you !"
Kagome covered her eyes and bent down on her knees.
Miroku ran over to Kagome and grabbed her hands, "KAGOME. YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME NOW ! YOU HAVE TO GO SAVE INUYASHA FROM HIS MISERY !"
Kagome got up as she pushed Miroku away, "But why !"
Miroku grabbed onto Kagome, "Kagome, if you haven't already noticed, Inuyasha killed these people. When Inuyasha's taken over by sadness and darkness, he becomes a full demon. He will KILL anyone that is in his way, and if you don't stop him, he will continue to do so to everyone in this city, including me, AND you."
Kagome was in shock as she shivered, tears in her eyes.
But what can I do .. !
"Call out his name, one for time, Kagome."
Kagome began stuttering, "I-.. Inuyasha.."
"LOUDER !"
Kagome took a deep breath, still frightened, "I..Inuyasha."
"LOUDERRR !"
"INUYASHAA !" Kagome shouted.
------------
Inuyasha turned around, fury in his eyes.
Who's that ?
Inuyasha quickly approached the sound. He ran, pushing through crowds.
"I know.. I know this voice !" Inuyasha yelled as he sprang to Kagome.
------------
Inuyasha had finally reached Kagome as he approached her growling.
Kagome backed away in fear, and tears in her eyes.
"WHO ARE YOU ! WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME NAME !" Inuyasha yelled as he quickly approached Kagome.
Kagome fell back.
"Inuyasha.. don't you.. remember me ?" Kagome questioned with sadness.
Inuyasha growled, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN ! WHO ARE YOU."
Kagome began breathing heavily, "K-Kagome.. it's me.. Inuyasha.. it's me."
Inuyasha pounced onto Kagome as he raised his claw, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU !"
Miroku ran over and grabbed Inuyasha's arms, trying to stop him from killing Kagome.
Inuyasha threw Miroku back as he scratched him.
"AGH !" Miroku yelled as he began to hold onto the wound on his chest.
Inuyasha ran over to Miroku and began to attack him, Miroku defending himself, and Kagome.
Kagome's heart raced.
What can I do ...
Miroku began moaning in pain as drips of blood began to spill out of him.
Kagome couldn't take it anymore. Inuyasha was killing Miroku, his best friend. He almost tried killing her. What could she do ? This wasn't him.
Miroku was pinned to the ground, nearly unconcious. Miroku took painful breathes, unable to open his eyes.
"It's over." Inuyasha stated as he raised his claw."
Kagome saw enough. She took all of the rest of her strength and yelled at the top of her lungs, "INUYASHA ! I LOVE YOU !"
Inuyasha turned around as his face finally looked a slight sincere.
She is.. she's.. can it be ?
Inuyasha's eyes widened as he finally remembered, "K-.. Kagome..."
Kagome was on her knees as she suddenly fainted smiling at Inuyasha, "I.. love you.. I really do."
Inuyasha's fangs returned to normal, eyes, bright and amber. His face, sweet and admirable. His claws, normal length and a face that was so sincere and beautiful.
Miroku looked up to Inuyasha, lying there bleeding as he smiled, I'm glad...
Inuyasha's heart pounded and voices echoed in his head, Kagome...
Inuyasha ran over to Kagome and gripped her tight, "KAGOME !"
