When the Darkness Takes Over
ForestSprite
Chapter 5
Kagome returned from school to see her mom smiling at the front door. She burst into a run to
meet her. "Did the two return mom?" she asked excitedly.
"Yes they're in your room resting. It was along trip." she replied.
With a laugh Kagome made to run into the house but her mom stopped her. "Do you really have
to send those two on these missions of yours? It's dangerous for them and they're so young."
"Mom they've been through as much as me. They can take care of themselves." she said running
up the stairs to her room leaving her mom by herself.
At the door of her room a red blur rushed at her nearly knocking her over hugging her.
"Kagomeeeeeeeeee!" it yelled.
"I'm happy to see you too Shippo and you too Kirara." she said to the cat on her bed. "So how
did it go?"
"No news yet. Hoto-san said he might have more information for us soon though." Shippo
replied.
"Hmm. I see then I guess I'll have to go with you to the next meeting."
"Of course mommy." He replied.
She only smiled at him. Her fingers somehow finding there way to the chain around her neck
that held the Shikon no Tama. She looked at it sadly. "Good thing we only got to find 5 more
pieces of the jewel at least. It's almost done. It's already caused so much pain." she said grimly.
Kirara on the bed meowed sadly in agreement. She sat by it petting it absently. "Yes I know
Kirara. They died protecting us though. Both Miroku and Sango. We'll avenge them. Don't
worry. I'm so glad to know you two survived at least." she said a distant look in her eye.
*flashback*
"Kagome?" Souta asked by her bedside. "Anything I can get for you?"
She only shook her head. Ever since she had been brought to her room two days ago when she
woke up she had refused to eat or talk. She just sat there silently staring at things only she could
see. Their mother had left to get more bandages as many of her wounds were still bleeding quite
badly and grandpa had gone with her leaving the two children alone.
"Souta?" she asked licking her lips.
He turned to her smiling she was speaking. "Did you see my yellow bag?"
"It might be at the bottom of the well but I didn't really notice we were really worried about you
Kag."
She smiled sadly at him. "I'm sorry."
"What did happen to you Kag?"
"You remember my telling you about Naraku right? We finally fought the last battle against him
and we won. It was really hard Souta. I took his jewels and put them with mine. We were
almost done now. The jewel would soon be completed. Then Inuyasha he went nuts. He began
to attack me but M-M-Miroku and Sango...." she burst out in tears.
He went up to her tentatively and began to rub her back talking soothing to her like she did for
him when something happened to him.
She finally got herself back under control. "They protected me for as long as they could, but he
killed them. He killed my-our best friends just like that. He came after me again and I couldn't
hold him off. His sword, the tetsuiga it-it-it suddenly began to glow blue and I think it burned
him or something because he couldn't hold it. It hurt him and he dropped it. Then it came to me
like I don't know, a dog comes to its master at bec but I wasn't beckoning it. It just came. I was
so close to the well now and he finally got me but the sword somehow repelled him like 30 ft
from me. I hurried to the well and when I went through I grabbed the bag." she paused sadly.
"Behind me I heard him cry out `Kikyo I will get you back your body and soul. You will live
again and I will kill the shard detector no matter what.' He never cared about me Souta. I was
just a tool to use to help him out."
He looked sadly at her. She didn't deserve this. She would be the last person deserving of
something like this.
"Souta will you please help me walk out to the shrine. I want to see if my bag is down there. It
holds many memories for me." she looked at him sadly.
He not wanting to refuse such a request helped her stand up and walk outside to the shrine.
They entered it and went to the old well, at the bottom of it sat her yellow bag. Souta not
wanting her to go down in case it took her back again went down and brought it back up to her.
She smiled at him as he handed the bag to her.
"One last thing Souta. My bow and arrows if you please."
He looked at her suspiciously but gave them to her as she requested. She strung an arrow and
pointed it at the well. He watched in amazement as a pink glow formed around it. She finally
shot it and it embedded itself into the wall showing briefly a shield covering the top of the well.
"What did you just do Kagome?" he asked her.
"I have blocked the well off so nobody came come through from the other side." she said
quietly. She hefted the bag to her shoulder frowning slightly.
"It wasn't this heavy before." she muttered.
She dropped the bag to the ground jumping back in surprise as it began to move. She looked at
it slightly frightened. She was to weak to fight it if it was a demon in there. She closed her eyes
in concentration.
Her eyes snapped open. "Shippo, Kirara?" she grabbed the bag again opening it to show two
very tired demons in her bag. "How did you two get in there?" she murmured.
Her eyes closed as she thought of the last fateful day she had been in the feudal ages.
Sango threw her boomerang at Inuyasha which he easily dodged sending it back at her hard.
She let out a cry of pain as it crashed into her.
"Shippo, Kirara." she yelled out as she dropped heavily to the ground trying hard to breathe.
"Remember what we talked about. Do it now. GO!"
Had they been planning ahead of time in case something like that happened? she thought to
herself.
She tried to think of why they hadn't tried to come to her since she had come back to her time
when she remembered the shield she had put up since she had came back that held back
demons that were in there. Just in case Inuyasha had come back, but now that she had done it
on the well she didn't need it up.
Souta helped her take the two demons into the house where they were treated and healed.
With them there Kagome had done a lot better promising to take the best of care of her best
friends companion and the kid that was like her son.
*end of flashback*
"So how was your day yesterday mommy?" Shippo asked
"Don't bother. It didn't go the way I thought. He attacked me." she said sighing.
"He did what?" Shippo said angrily getting up Kirara right beside him growling.
"Calm my son. It's nothing to worry about. I...." she paused. "Stay here Shippo. They are back
if any come near this house you know what to do right? Kirara I want you to go to Souta's
school and watch carefully make sure they don't try to get him again. I'll be at the park."
That said she left the house in a blur.
Yay I'm getting farther into the story. sorry about the short chapters so far I'll try to get them
longer and also sorry about how long it is in taking to get to the story that's something I usually
do on stories so it's not meant to purposely annoy you the readers. anywho hope you enjoy also
remember to review and vote for your favorite pairings will it be
Kurama/Kagome
Hiei/Kagome
OC/Kagome
or someone else you can come up with. also if it is demanded enough of me I will write another
story for the pairing that doesn't win. so if Hiei wins which he is so far I will write another story
