The Witch- The Visit and the Tree of Ages

I don't own Inu Yasha or any of the characters but I do own the character I put in the story but I don't own her powers the people that invented Charmed do.

RECAP

"I saw Inu Yasha going crazy and killing you all. Happy?" I snapped. They all looked shocked. Then, they turned to Inu Yasha.

"I feel fine." He said.

"Yeah." I said," Its not now. It was in the forest... And I saw it when I touched the Tree of Ages which means it probably happened around there. And his eyes were way different. They were red. And he had marks on his face. As I struggled to remember what happened in the premonition i saw something that I hadn't noticed before. There was a body behind him when he attacked Kagome.

"Wait a second... Thats kagome in the background... Hes heading towards someone who looks like her!"

"I think," I said, after my eyes had widened in shock after my relavalation they had looked at me expecting something, so I told them,"I think that maybe he was protecting Kagome because in teh background Kagome is on the ground near the tree and hes coming towards someone who looks like her."

"Kikyo." They all say in unision looking behind me.

"Thats her name?" I said thinking they were looking at me.

"No," Miroku said," Kikyo is here." He said pointing behind me.

END RECAP

I looked behind me to find a woman who looked like Kagome walking past the hut as a small wind continued to blow the entrance open. She didn't seem to be looking inside which cheered me up instantly. Then, she looked at me. Her eyes were cold and I shivered involuteerally. She looked past me to Inu Yasha and Kagome. Hurt flashed through her eyes and then anger. I felt a wave of extreme anger coming from her. I felt woozy after it and arm which was supporting me as I was turned around, almost gave way. Sango noticed this and looked concerned. I was surprised at how quickly the group as become asscustomed to me but I was grateful. I nodded at her signifying that I was ok and then I looked back at Kikyo.

Anger

I counted in my head. The hurt that flashed through her eyes signified to me that her pride had been hurt. She thought that Inu Yasha was hers forever.

Pride

She turned and walked into the hut. She stood in front of me.

"Who are you and what are you doing in my sister's hut?" She asked in a voice so cold I felt my insides felt like they had frost bite. I looked back to where she had been standing. Weird creatures were flying in the air holding bright orbs. I knew what they were. I had seen plenty before.

"Souls... Why does she carry around souls... unless she lives off of them... does that mean... that shes dead?" I thought looking back to her.

"You still haven't answered my question." She said. She had fixated a cold glare on my face.

I stood up. I was a little bit shorter than her but I was tall enough to look her in the eye.

" My name is Selena and I'm here because I was invited which is the least I can say about you." I said, giving her the same cold glare. I could be quite heartless if I wanted. I knew that the others were shocked because they never could have imagined me with a stare like that. I'm good at imiatating people which was obivious now. She broke the eye contact I had made with herand looked at Inu Yasha, who clutched Kagome tighter when she looked. Anger hit me again and I staggered back against the wall. It was stronger this time because it was infused with greed.

Greed

Just two more and I knew that she was who were looking for. The impending danger that the trees warned about. Kagome stood up slowly. Walking across the hut to Kikyo.

" So you finally snatched his heart completely." Kikyo said with a small snarl forming in her face. Envy came out of Kikyo. I restrained myself from almost strangling Kagome which was how intense Kikyo's feelings felt.

Envy

One more. One more and I would have to do something. I walked slowly to Sango and sunk to my knees.

" Restrain me." I said quietly. She looked at me like I was mad.

"Restrain me or I might act on Kikyo's feelings. And theres something shes REALLY feelings like doing right now." I said in the same quiet voice and she understood. She grabbed my arms and held them tightly. I could feel the grasp was so tight it was almost cutting off my circulation. I looked up at the two women standing in front of each other. Kagome was looking at Kikyo, not knowing what to say. Kikyo looked coldly at her, then she turned to Inu Yasha. She smirked at him as the sound of a growl eminated from him and he stood up. "Leave Kagome alone." He said.

"Inu Yasha, its not her that I'm visiting my old village for, its you." She said walking past Kagome slowly. She stalked towards him and he tensed. I could tell that she loved the expression on his face. He looked angry and sad at the same time. Just like she did. She reached him and pushed herself against him. Then, lust hit me like a baseball.

Lust

"Shes...I'm sure of it now...shes what causes him to change... shes the presence I felt on the other side of the well." I said my voice raising from a whisper to a regular tone. Inu Yasha pushed her away and walked to Kagome. He pulled her tight against him and she looked up at him.

" I don't love you anymore Kikyo. I love Kagome. More than I ever did you. So get lost." He said rudely. Hurt flashed in Kikyo's eyes again. And she walked out defiantly.

"Fine Inu Yasha. But, you'll be back with me soon." She said as she walked away. Towards the forest. The impulses leave me when she leaves the village. I untense and Sango lets her free from her death-grip. My wrists are red.

"Sorry!" she says nervously. I chuckle.

"Its ok." I say.

"She's going to cause him to change? How?" Kagome asked sitting next to me. I wiped the sweat that formed on my forhead while trying to subdue the impulses that had raged from Kikyo.

" If I knew that then we wouldn't be in this predicament." I said. I looked up at the entrance.

'I think it would be smart if we all stayed inside tonight. And away from the door. If anything I'll sleep near the door. She seemed taken aback by me so-"

"We cant stay in Kaede's hut, wheres she gonna sleep?" Inu Yasha snapped.

"Sit." I said.

He hit the ground and mumbled something I couldn't hear.

"Inu Yasha brings up a point no matter how rude it sounds but its true this is Kaede's hut and she needs her sleep." Sango said.

" Ok then... then if we sleep outside... I'd advise no one to go off alone. Especially you Kagome. Inu Yasha you have to take someone too because we don't know what she'll do. Got it?" I said in a stern tone. I felt like I was talking to a student and I was the teacher. I stood up and waited for everyones reply.

"Ok" was heard from four people, and when Inu Yasha got his face out of the ground he said, "Feh." Which I took as a yes and we packed up our things. We said bye to Kaede and went to find a campsite. Kagome and Inu Yasha walked behind Miroku and Sango and Shippo and I were behind them. I wasn't even paying attention to what anyone was doing. I was thinking.

KAG POV

I was still a bit shaken from Kikyo's visit. I thought Selena had a point. We should have stayed inside. But it wasn't our house so we couldn't stay there. It was Kaede's house. I walked next to Inu Yasha behind Sango and Miroku. Since Selena had gotten here she had seemed a little preoccupied but what had happened in the hut when Kikyo came? After I walked up to her Selena went over to Sango and said something to make Sango hold her arms very tightly. She still had a slight bruise, I realized when I looked back at her. She was staring at the sky, and her eyes looked distant. She was thinking about something. I looked back in front of me and then to Inu Yasha. His hair shone in the moonlight, making it look lighter and almost ghostly but beautiful. Part of his face was lit by the moonlight and his eyes looked like gold in a stream in the middle of the night. My hand encircled his and he turned his head towards me as if he had also been thinking. Was he really going to try and kill us all?

"No, I won't let myself think like that!" I shook my head to clear it of the thought and leaned into him. I put my head on his shoulder and surprisingly he put his cheek on top of my head. I smiled inwardly.

"Kagome..." He whispered so only I could hear him," if something does happen...and I change, I want you to take Shippo and Selena and get off of there. If Selena is right then I would have already killed Miroku and Sango and it would give you time to get away. Run to the well and jump in and seal it up. Got it?"

I nodded my head just a bit to let him know that I understood. But I wasn't going to leave him. Even if it got me killed.

SEL POV

I stopped thinking long enough to notice the love birds grab hold of each others hands. I nudged Shippo, who was on my shoulder eatting a lollipop. He giggled giddily and continued eating his lolipop. I looked at the scenery and had a slight feeling of uneasiness. We were near the Tree of Ages. I could fell its vibrations. I looked in its direction and saw those same weird soul-carriers. They weren't at the tree though. They were a bit closer to the path.

Then, there was a feeling of rushing air as an arrow flew in front of my face, missing by inches. I gasped and stepped back. Shippo had jumped down and was running to Kagome. The next arrow came and I froze it when it was right next to my face. I then turned it around and sent it right back to its owner wiht my powers. The next one came in front of Kgome and Inu Yasha. He grabbed her after and jumped into the foliage of the trees. Sango and Miruko had backed up so that they were in front of me by only a few inches. I froze the scene and ran into the darkness of the trees towards where the arrorws were coming from. Sango adn Miruko ran after me. I reached the arrow slinger. It wasn't Kikyo. I should have known. If she had been shooting the arrows they probably would have glowed pink. Then I heard a scream. It was female and not at all pleseant.

"Kagome!" The three of us said as we ran to the Tree of Ages. I unfroze the scene behind us and left a very confused archer in teh dust along with Miroku and Sango and Shippo at my heels. We reached the tree and Kagome was on the ground. Blood had pooled around her and she was white. I ran over to her and felt her pulse.

"She's still alive!" I yelled to Miroku and Sango. They seemed to relax a bit but then we heard it. A growl. It sounded carnal and angry. Suddenly, I was hit by a very strong demonic aura. I turned away from Kagome to my left where the others were staring. Kikyo stood on the edge of the clearing. She was still in a shooting stance. Inu Yasha was on teh ground, growling. His hair was raising all around him. I strained my eyes to try and see his face. I saw a purple mark on his cheek. And his eyes were turning red.

"Damn..." I said quietly. I looked at Kagome.

"I have to get her out of the clearing to heal her. If I do it here theres a chance that he might attack me." I stood and slowly started to pull Kagome out of the clearing. When I got her far enough I pulled out the arrow. A cry of pain came from her and she squinted her already shut eyes to try and stop tears.

" Kagome. Its Selena. I'm gonna get you better okay?" I said quietly. She nodded slowly and turned her head away. I turned towards the clearing to find Sango and Miroku still standing in the same place. I put my hands over her wounds and started to heal her. She had lost a lot of blood. It took a while longer when the blood had dissappeared from the ground from which I dragged her she sat up with a gasp. She looked at me with shock. Then we both heard a roar. I helped her up and we walked back into the clearing. Inu Yasha was standing at the center. Miroku had stepped infront of Sango who was infront of Kirara and Shippo. Shippo was cowering behind her leg.

I looked to Inu Yasha. His eyes were red with a teal colored pupil and he had purple marks on his cheeks. His mouth was pulled into a snarl and his teeth had all grown longer. He was facing Kikyo who in turn had her bow and arrow pointed at him.I ran over to the others with kagome behind me. They all looked relieved when they saw her.

"You're all right!" Sango said happily. It took less than a second for Inu Yahsa to notice that we were there. He turned to us and his snarl turned in an evil grin.

"Hello, friends." He said in a voice that didn't sound like his own.

I visiably saw Kagome tense up. I didn't want to believe that it was going to happen. So didn't. I pushed miroku behind me and stood i front of all my new friends. My hands glowed and the athames appeared, startling me for about half a second. I twirled them in me fingers and then held on to them tightly.

" Come join the party." He said smirking. Kikyo had a line of blood on he arm and it was dripping. Inu YAsha was staring at us and then at his claws ,which had a bit of Kikyo's blood on them.

Kikyo tightened her grip on her bow and arrow both which were still pointed at him. He didn't move. I noticed that his sword was in the ground a feet feet away from him. It was pulsating. The engery was very strong. He noticed my distraction and took it as an advantage.

He lunged and I looked back at him. He was coming straight at us.

I put my hands up in front of me and flicked my wrists. He froze in midair. I could tell that the freeze wouldn't last very long. Kikyo turned to us.

"Kikyo just leave!" I said sudeenly unable to control the impulses that were coming at me. That was from Kagome who looked shocked that I knew exactly what she had wanted to say.

Kikyo eyed me for a moment then left the clearing. Inu Yasha was slowly breaking out of the freeze.

Kagome suddenly ran from behind me.

"She's going to try and turn him back!"

"She'll be killed!"

"Kagome, no!"

I just stood and watched as she reached him. He moved his eyes back and forth and settled on her. His eyes fickered for a moment. Then the freeze wore off.His feet hit the floor in front of Kagome. She whimpered for a second then held her ground.

"She's going to go trhough with it?"

He stared at her, as if he didn't recognize her. Then, she grabbed his kimono and pulled herself to him. She reached around him to palce her arms around his waist and cried into his chest.

"WHAT IS SHE DOING?"

He stood amazed at what she had just done. He claws were in the air around her head. Then, his expression softened. "K-k-kagome...?" His eyes turned white and golden eagian and the marks dissapeared. The claws shrank to their oringial size and the sword stopped pulsating. He looked down at the crying girl in his arms. He placed his arms around her and put his cheek on the top of her head.

" Why...why do you thrust yourself at me when I could hurt you? I could have killed you just now!" He said.

I looked at Miroku and Sango. They sighed in relief and I did also. Then he looked at us.

"Why didn't you try to stop her?" He said acuusingly. I opened my mouth and put my hands on my hips. The athames had again vanished. Snago looked shocked and Miroku just said," If I had Sango would have hit me."

Then, Sango hit him.

"Perv..."

"Gahhhhh..." I said with a yawn. I was still pissed at Inu Yasha for waking me up at dawn. I almost sat him but I decided to go with the silent treatment.

So there I was walking in front of him with Kagome and Sango, talking about girl stuff. Miroku and Inu Yasha walked behind. Then Sango said," Hey look! hot springs! You girls wanna take a bath?"

"You need not say more!" We said in unision and laughed.

"This looks like a good place to set up camp for now.," Sango said," OK while you boys set up we'll go take a bath!" We grabbed our bathing stuff and ran toawrds the hot springs.

"MIROKU IF YOU LEAVE THAT CAMPSITE WE'LL ALL PERSONALLY SLAP YOU! YOU TOO INU YASHA!" We yelled as we made our way there.
