Coincidence? I Think Not…
(' ' Thinking) (" " Speaking) ('Kagome talking to Sesshomaru mentally')
Inuyasha blinked three times. Tracey blinked two times. Miroku blink once and Sango stared at Sesshomaru. Her expressions could be deciphered as either 'I want a sundae now!' or as 'Are you nuts!' You would probably guess the latter.
"So let me get this straight." Tracy said with a lot of confusion evident in his voice. "Kagome is not dead. She is in you…somehow? And she wont go, and you have no idea why she is there and you need help figuring it out?"
Sesshomaru mentally smiled. Thankfully someone was a little smarter then his brother. Before Sesshomaru could somewhat agree with Tracey he lost to Kagome once again.
"Good job Tracey!" Sesshomaru squealed with delight and opened his arms and tried to give Tracey a hug.
Tracey jumped back with his arms in front of him in a defensive manner.
"Sorry dude. I'm straight." Tracey said with a side-glance at all the other people sitting down.
"Oh okay…" Sesshomaru said as he pouted and sat down in a slouch.
Tracey's eyebrows rose as he looked at Sesshomaru's posture.
"Kagome?" Tracey asked.
Sesshomaru's head quickly came up and she looked around quickly. Her eyes ended at Tracey and she gave him a warm smile.
"Yeah?" Sesshomaru asked.
Tracey smiled back at Sesshomaru and looked at the other four people.
"It's Kagome." Tracey and Inuyasha said at the same time.
The two men beamed at each other. All the while Sango was looking back and forth from Sesshomaru to Tracey and Miroku was looking up and down at something he found particularly interesting, maybe something about the lady who was sitting beside him? Just maybe….
"We will leave now." Sesshomaru said as he stood up.
His plan was to get to his house, get her out of him, live normally. Oh, and kill his brother. Piece of cake! Only problem? Sesshomaru would never have realized how big of a piece his cake was.
"Bring me another shard." Naraku said with a frown.
Kagura looked miserable as she stood up. She brushed imaginary dirt off herself and walked into one of the rooms. Inside this room was a lone alter. She walked up to it but after her third step she plucked a feather from her hair and threw the feather down. It became rather big and she jumped on top of the feather. It floated up a little and glided gracefully over to the alter. Her feather was a mere inch away from the alter. She could see a small box on the top of the flat surface. She picked up the box and felt around for a little while. She felt a small groove on the exact middle of the lid on the box. She kept her finger on it and held it with the same hand as she thought for a while. Yes, she had put the key in her kimono somewhere. She reached into her kimono and pulled out a golden key. She pushed into the groove and turned it to the right and then turned it to the left. A little click was heard and she made sure that she did not drop the golden key. She pulled the key out and opened the lid. She tucked the little golden key into her kimono and pulled out a silver key. She dropped the key into the little box. The key hit a barrier and seemed to be floating for a while. The silver key soon passed through and the barrier faded. Kagura smiled as she reached her hand into the box and pulled out an almost complete black jewel, tinted by impurity.
Naraku told her that only silver could cease a demonic barrier. If absolutely anything else touches a demonic barrier it would dissolve if it was weak or sizzle, or deflect off if it were strong. The jewel was as dark as the demonic barrier so it passed through with no trouble. Naraku was currently the darkest demon on the planet, the only thing darker then him was the jewel.
She picked up the silver key and started the scrape the jewel. After five minutes of loud scratched a small jewel shard came off. Kagura sighed and dropped the jewel back into the box and placed it back onto the alter. Kagura glided out of the room then jumped off her feather and it immediately turned small again. She placed the feather back in her bun and walked across the room. She handed the jewel shard to Naraku and took a seat beside him to watch what he was doing.
Naraku had already put two shards into the heart. The only thing that happened was that the black jewel turned white and the small piece of the heart grew.
"Naraku is this one of your new ways of losing all your shards? I mean, I thought Inuyasha was a good source of loosing shards but I guess this way works too…." Kagura asked with a large smirk playing on her features
"I am surprised our Master has not killed you before this. You are very unworthy. You would probably help those children who are after those shards." The soft-spoken youth said.
"Are you two judging me? How unfair, and I don't have a say in this?" Naraku asked innocently as an evil man could.
He ignored the mumbled apologies and turned his attention to the heart. He thought that if he could turn this pure heart into an evil one then whatever is keeping the miko alive would either snap or become evil. He was thinking that the latter would be nice but either way would be fine.
Naraku pushed another shard into the piece of pumping heart. It had a very small hint of black, so very small but Naraku could see it. An evil smile curled its way up onto his face.
"Bring my more." Naraku said with a smile, thinking of the future this heart could give him.
"I need more…"
Kikyo's chocolate brown eyes grew large. She fell on her knees as her hair pooled around her. She clutched the cloth over her chest, as her eyes grew wider. She coughed up white blood and she stared at the small, clean lake beside her. She dipped her finger in. The water turned a brownish color. The miko's face frowned as saw what happened. She had always listened to other people. She had taken what people had given her without choice. She had to become a priestess. She was demanded to learn archery. She learnt She became a priestess. She was told to take care of the weak. She took care of them. She had to take care of The Jewel of Four Souls. She did. She wanted to love. She couldn't. It was snatched away from her by death. She never asked for anything, she did what other expected of her, why did she get so much bad luck? Then when she got past all the pain and into the after life she was called back. She was called back to watch her reincarnation fall in love with the same person she had. Reliving her life… except with more luck.
Kikyo only realized all this at the very moment. Her thoughts were always clouded by the past but for some reason, when she felt pain, she remembered. Luck hated her and it was a fact. The earth wanted her to leave, but so did the afterlife. Where did she belong? Definitely not here. She would never be welcome back to her old life with Inuyasha. She also remembered that when she was younger she had never fit in with anyone. She was always the one out of place. It always had to be her.
Kikyo sat in self-pity and cried. Blood streamed out of her mouth. Her now somewhat black soul stealers, one by one, slowly disappeared into nothingness. No one was with her. She was alone, and this was the way it was meant to be. That was her final thought before she fell into a darkness that seemed so very comfortable.
After a tiresome, boring, and long journey the Inuyasha gang, with Sesshomaru, Rin, and Jaken, reached the Western Castles
"Wow!" Shippou squealed enthusiastically. "Rin, you have such a pretty home!"
Rin giggled cutely, "Lord Sesshomaru makes good choices!"
At that, Kagome smiled warmly. Well, she smiled as much as a small orb of energy could.
'She's a good kid.' Kagome thought with a grin.
Sesshomaru felt so proud and also had an urging feeling to smile. Anyone who loved Rin was someone he put into respect.
"Kagome-chan will be coming soon, right Lord Sesshomaru?" Rin asked in an innocent voice.
Shippou had finally stopped crying, but at the mention of his adoptive mothers name he started with the water works.
Tracey stepped in front of Inuyasha and kneeled down to be face to face with Rin. He held Kagome in his arms.. She had a regular priestess robe on. There was no blood evident on Kagome and she seemed rather healthy. Her chest kept going up and down. Her eyes were closed, her hands were clasped together, and she was smiling peacefully. She seemed, in all ways, a fallen angel.
After Tracey explained what had happened to Kagome, Rin's eyes immediately started to build up with tears. She cried, even though she had never known Kagome that well. Sango looked at the little girl sympathetically. Miroku started at Sango sympathetically.
'It's so sad,' Miroku thought with a lecherous smile, 'Maybe one daySagon will know me very well, maybe one day.'
Kirara mewed warningly at Miroku and Miroku whistled innocently to himself.
Inuyasha looked at his closest friend. How many times had they argued together? All the time, whenever he had argued, he would never admit, but he loved it. It was always exciting for some odd reason. She yells, he yells, she yells even louder, he says something stupid, she either yell and he falls down or she runs off crying. He would never admit it but he had enjoyed all their arguements.
Sesshomaru had always thought that the miko was a loud mouthed woman, his brothers wench, he had never seen her so peaceful. (Or so quiet D) She looked really beautiful…. for a human of course.
'Wait- I need to be somewhere.' Kagome told Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru felt a small whooshing feeling then thought to himselfwith a frown,'Darn, I have to remember that the girl can read my thoughts.'
Fire-Soul-Dragon: Ha! Two chapters in one day! Go me! Go me! Woot woot! OK OK, let me try to stop eating so much sugar... which is impossible! Hee hee hee hee hee! Once I hit 20 reviews I am going to add a 'Random Funny Junk Corner'. Just some random junk me and my sister consider funny.D What? It's funny! Lmao. I am laughing so hard just thinking about it! Okay, since I wrote two today I am hoping that I made up for the two weeks I missed... did I? Sometimes I get really ticked off when some people add in characters so I was wondering if I should bring on some new characters or not. I guess I will bring on a few but I won't go over board. I must say that their will be nothing reallybig happening in the future, two major events and that is all. It might take me more then thirty chapters though. XD The sad thing is I am already planning for a seaquel with a 100 percentdifferent plot. Lmao. Okay, time to focus on THIS story. Keep reading, and safe clicking!
