Last Time:

InuYasha then saw that it wasn't just "nothing". Even with the thorn out of Kagome's thumb, she was still in a lot of pain. This was no normal sting, either. When he looked closer, he found a faint purple-blue color spreading all over Kagome's right hand and up her arm.

"First aid...kit..." Kagome said right before she passed out.

"Yes." She said, walking towards Naraku. "I would like to thank you for fishing me out of that nasty monk's tunnel."

Naraku nodded and motioned to the mirror. It showed InuYasha and Kagome in the bottom of a well, Kagome passed out with InuYasha gathering her up. InuYasha then jumped on the ground, and jumped out of the well fully, with Kagome. "Those thorns worked well."

"I know. I told you they would." Kikyo said smugly. "Now InuYasha will suffer. Then that pathetic girl that has my soul."

This Time:

What does she want me to DO? InuYasha thought frantically. He gave up on that and relied on instincts. He picked Kagome up and sprinted to the village.

"Kaede!" InuYasha searched for the woman, running at lightning speed. "Kaede, you old hag, get out here!"

He spotted the old woman coming out of the hut, looking worried. She saw Kagome. "What 'tis wrong with ye Kagome?"

"She got stung by a thorn and now her arm's purple and," InuYasha screamed at the woman. He looked down and screamed even louder. "She's not moving!"

Kaede eyed Kagome for only a second, but knew immediately what herbs to gather. She spoke quickly. "I'll get some water, InuYasha, you go get these herbs." She rattled them off and set out for water.

InuYasha ran into the hut Kaede had come out of (which was now empty) and set Kagome down on a futon in the back of the room.

"I'll be right back, Kagome. Just hang on for me, okay?" InuYasha whispered in her ear.

"Okay..." a faint whisper answered him. He kissed her forehead quickly and, having the good memory that he has, remembered the ingredients and ran to get them.

Kagome drifted off into dreamland.

Dream:

I walked to the well inside the shrine and jumped in. I can't wait to see InuYasha! He told me that when I got back, he'd have a surprise for me!

After I climbed out of the well in the feudal era, I looked around for InuYasha. Finally, I found two figures by the river. Oh, Miroku and Sango! Maybe they know where InuYasha is...

But that wasn't Miroku and Sango.

InuYasha and Kikyo were standing there, on the riverbank, kissing!

"InuYasha?" I asked, taking a couple of steps back. So much for a surprise!

He simply pulled away from Kikyo and said, "I'm with Kikyo, I've always loved her and never you." He was talking like we were discussing what we were having for dinner!

He laughed a harsh laugh and continued. "Hell, why do you think that I didn't say that I loved you back? Are we finished here? Cause, I've got to go tell everyone who is going to be replacing you in our little group. Kikyo, come on."

I just said quietly, "But you did." He turned. "You did say that you loved me back."

He laughed again an evil laugh. "That was a cover-up. So I could convince you to hand over the jewel shards!"

I ran.

I ran until I got to the well and further.

I ran until I thought I couldn't run anymore. I got to a tree and slumped on the ground.

"But he said he did...he said it!...A-and... and I believed him."

End Dream

Outside Of Dreamland

Somewhere Far Away

Kikyo held her head and looked up at Naraku. "She doesn't want to believe it. She is fighting me! I-can't-over-power her! Her love is too strong!"

Naraku put his chin in his hand. "We can use this to our advantage, you know. We can have their love tear them apart."

Kikyo nodded and held her head tighter. "I've got her! She is almost completely under my control. She now fully believes that InuYasha betrayed her. Every part of her rage, that is. Once her rage is satisfied, she will return to her normal self."

Naraku nodded. "If it lasts until she kills InuYasha, then I will be a very satisfied."

In Kaede's Hut

"She has a high fever, and this fever is making she have nightmares." Kaede said. Before she walked out of the hut, she stopped. "Take care of ye Kagome, InuYasha."

InuYasha nodded and sat down next to Kagome. He stroked her hair, which had flowed all around her onto the futon.

She suddenly started to toss and turn violently. Then she sat up and opened her eyes. Only they weren't her normal brown eyes. They were white.

Pure white.

"Kagome?" InuYasha put a hand on her shoulder.

A gust of wind caught InuYasha off-guard and knocked him off balance. Kagome was lifted up off the ground a few feet with a pink light surrounding her. Her hair was flying all over when she stared at InuYasha, who was now standing.

"Kagome what-?"

InuYasha was cut off. Kagome shrieked. "GET AWAY FROM ME! GO BACK TO KIKYO! GO, NOW!"

"Kikyo?" InuYasha asked, confused. "What does she have to do with this?"

"I saw it!" Kagome screamed, this time a little quieter. Now she was crying. "I saw you kissing her! You said you didn't ever love me, InuYasha! But you don't, not anymore! These stupid shards! Stupid!" She tore the shard bottle off and threw it at him. InuYasha let it drop to the ground. "HERE! You wanted them so badly, so now you have them!"

Before InuYasha could say anything, she channeled all of her energy into making InuYasha feel like he could fly. Kagome pushed her hands towards InuYasha. A wave of pink seemed to pick him up and throw him to the opposite wall, making a dent in it. He felt like every bone in his body was breaking. Then he realized something:

She has to be under a spell. Kagome would never do this to him on her own.

"Kagome..." Was his last word.

How Kagome Saw It

Kagome dropped to the floor. Her arm had gone back to its normal color; she had used all of the venom on InuYasha. She was still crying, but not because she hated him; it was because she knew what she had done to her love.

"Help..." she whispered hoarsely. Kagome crawled over to InuYasha.

"Kagome..." InuYasha whispered before closing his eyes.

She smiled hopefully. "InuYasha, don't talk. Are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't know, I-" She stopped short. InuYasha was limp. "I-InuYasha? Are you..." She swallowed. "Are you alive?"

"No..." She shook his shoulders in denial. "InuYasha, wake up...I know you're just joking, come on..." She broke down into sobs, realizing the truth. "Don't leave me. Wake up...wake up! WAKE u-up!" She shook him hard. "Please..."

She repeated 'please' until she found it pointless.

I did this! Kagome thought angrily. She looked over at him, and her anger faded back into sadness. She rested her lips high on Inuyasha's cheek, still crying.

A tear fell into Inuyasha's left eye. His eyelids squeezed tightly shut, then loosened.

He blinked.

Kagome didn't notice until he spoke.

"K'gome?"

Her head snapped up to see a very weak and confused hanyou staring at her.

"I-InuYasha?" Kagome whispered.
