Inuyasha's Redemption Chapter 3.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters.
Author's POV
Over the next year the angel named Bijin worked tirelessly to grant Inuyasha a return to life. The angel couldn't get him out right away because he was in hell and the 'we' she had referred to was a faction of angels who believed he should be given another chance. But there were many conservative angels who believed that if you're in hell you should stay there. Not to mention that hell didn't want to give up any of its souls. But Bijin and her friends continued to try and bring the others to their point of view. And Inuyasha continued to suffer in hell, but now with a newfound strength at the hope of seeing and helping Kagome.
Kagome…she wandered the countryside her constant suicide attempts always being foiled in some manner. The Shikon No Tama had been entrusted to Kaede. Kereii Obake Josei (Lovely Ghost Woman) was what the villagers called her. Her skin was white as flour, her hair grew lank and lifeless and her eyes lost their cheerful glow and became dull. Every other day Miroku cast the spell on her like the spell Dark Priestess Tsubaki had once cast on her. He then forced her to eat and then released her from the spell. The rest of the time she wandered Japan trying to kill herself in various ways.
Kagome's POV
Why won't they let me alone to die? No matter what I do I never succeed. When I attempted to drown myself a water demon attacked me, pushing me out of the water. When I attempted to hang myself the branch always broke and turned out to be rotten. When I put myself in the path of several demons they never seemed to take notice of me. I ate poison herbs but after I blacked out I always awoke. I suspect either Kaede or Miroku come and heal me. Why? I just want to end my pain.
I could go to my era and find a way to die there but I want to be in this era when I die. I want to be in the time where I met Inuyasha. I know he didn't love me but….I loved him….I did….and even if he didn't love me or want to stay with me I want to be in his time when I die.
Miroku's POV
Poor Kagome. It's been a year now and she still is like this. I wonder if what we are doing is indeed what is right for her. Maybe she would be happier if we let her die. But Sango won't let me even bring it up, though I know she wonders the same.
She gave birth to twins, a girl and a boy. I'm a father. That fills me with wonder and amazement. Chame is the boy and Arashi is the girl. Chame means playful or mischievous and Arashi means storm. They are eight months old now and Shippo loves to help Sango take care of them. Sango is radiant as a mother. She is already pregnant with another. Her belly curves out slightly in the most delightful way.
Kagome never seems to notice anything. I don't know what to do. I wish I could help her. I wish.
Naraku's POV
A girl. Only a few months old and ten killings to her credit. What a little murdersome darling! I named her Akui, or Malice. It seems fitting for a child of mine. Her blood red eyes show the savagery and fear that makes me immensely proud of her.
My army continues to grow and that pale little miko-wannabe continues to haunt the land. I'll crush her soon enough. Oh, my plans are going along splendidly! Kikyo nurses our little Akui and I will be the new emperor before she reaches the age of two! But first to take care of the monk and his demon-slayer wife…
A/N- I know I didn't really say what happens after the cliffy last chapter but it will come up in future chapters, don't you worry! And in case anyone wants to know I got all the names from my new Japanese-English dictionary. What do you guys think of the names? Review and tell me! And in case you wanted to know Bijin means beautiful woman. I'm so happy I'm getting so many reviews! Thanks to all of my reviewers!
