Chapter 12
As a figure appeared in front of them, it's evil aura washed over them and it triggered something in Kagome. Her eyes started to glow and a great wave of energy burst out of her body, surrounding her in a light blue light. Inuyasha was pushed to the side when this happened and now he was watching from the sidelines.
Stranger's p.o.v.
I ran into the building and down a dark corridor that then opened into a larger room. I didn't look around much. I found the demon standing in front of the miko. I couldn't really make out any of her features because the energy around her was so bright. The demon then lunged at her and she easily purified it so that there were nothing left, not even some ashes.
After this I walked up to the miko as the energy around her faded. It looked like she couldn't control her power very well, if at all. That's when I noticed Inuyasha watching the miko intently with concern evident in his eyes. So she was a friend of his.
Normal p.o.vInuyasha tried to get closer to Kagome but the energy around her was still charged with her purification power, so it kept him from running up to her. He then noticed another figure that walked out of the shadows and towards Kagome. He looked carefully, then he realized who it was.
"What the hell?" he whispered to no one in particular.
The young miko that had been tracking the demon walked up to Kagome and put a supporting arm around her before she collapsed. The light then faded completely and Inuyasha walked forward, growling.
"What the hell are you doing here? And what are you doing to her?" he asked venomly.
The young miko sighed and rolled her eyes.
"I don't have to explain myself to the likes of you half-breed," she stated.
Kagome's weak voice interrupted before either could say anything else.
"Shut the hell up Kikyo and help me over to the coach."
Kikyo stood there, shocked when she realized whom it was that she was supporting.
"No way. You! Aw, hell no!" she yelled.
Kagome growled and pulled her along, using her as a support. When Kagome made it back to the coach she collapsed onto it. Inuyasha sat down beside her.
"Are you okay?" he asked, taking one of her hands in his.
Kagome let her head fall back against the couch.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
Just then Kikyo's cellphone rang. She stood up walked a little ways away and answered it. Inuyasha and Kagome could only hear Kikyo's end of the conversation, and it sounded like she wasn't to happy about something.
"Hai miko- sama. Ja ne" Kikyo hung up the phone and had to take a minute to blow off some stem. When she came back over to them she looked miserable. They wanted to know what was going on, but they waited patiently for Kikyo to speak.
"Kagome," Inuyasha and Kagome looked at her curiously, she had never called Kagome by her name before.
"That was my Sensai, she has had a vision that clearly told her that you are the holder and protector of the Shikon no Tama. And because of that, and the fact that you can't control your power at all, she has instructed me to train you so that you can protect the jewel properly."
Inuyasha and Kagome sat there stunned by this new revelation. Kagome then put her head in her hands and rubbed her temples. It was just to much, it was all to much. First the beatings, killing her godfather, the court stuff and now this. It was just to much for her to take. Inuyasha saw this and lead Kagome back to her bedroom. Before her head even hit the pillow she was asleep. Inuyasha watched her for a minute then went back out to talk to Kikyo.
When he got back out into the club, Kikyo was looking around. She knew he was there.
"What the hell is this place?" she asked.
"Something that doesn't concern you." He answered coldly.
She gave him a deadpan look but didn't say anything for once. The silence hung heavily in the air, each waiting for the other to say something. Finally Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore.
"You can stay here tonight and talk to Kagome in the morning. Just don't mess with anything."
She looked at him warily but agreed. After he found her a blanket he called Ginkotsu and Bankotsu and told them what happened. After talking with them Inuyasha went out and propped the door up in it's frame then went back to Kagome's room and fell into an uneasy sleep.
Kagome woke up first the next morning. She saw Inuyasha sleeping soundly on the floor by the couch where she had been sleeping. She quietly got up and went out into the main part of the club to get something to eat. When she got out there she saw Kikyo asleep on some of the cushions out there. She stopped and watched her for a minute then walked the rest of the way to the bar. As Kagome was heating up some food Kikyo woke up. She looked around and when she saw Kagome she closed her eyes, sighed and mumbled under her breath.
"Damn. I was hoping it was all a bad dream."
Kagome sighed but decided not to comment; instead once her food was done she popped in some for Kikyo. While Kagome was waiting for Kikyo's food to be done she searched around under the bar. When she found hat she wanted she jumped up and did a little cheer. Kikyo was curious so she walked over to see what Kagome was doing. She stumbled along the way and Kagome realized the lights weren't on. She could see well in the dark so she hadn't really noticed. She walked over to the door of the storeroom, stuck her hand in and flipped on the lights.
Kikyo was temporally blinded by the sudden light but her eyes quickly adjusted. She then walked across the rest of the floor over to the bar. Just then the microwave beeped and Kagome turned around and pulled out the waffles and placed the food in front of Kikyo, then passed her the syrup and a fork. Kikyo picked up the syrup and slowly poured it over the warm, soft waffles in front of her; all the while watching Kagome out of the corner of her eye.
Kikyo then looked at the food hesitantly.
" It's not poisoned." Said Kagome before she took a swig of beer. Kikyo looked at her, then at the bottle in her hand, raising an eyebrow.
" What? We don't have my milk and I didn't feel like mixing a drink. You want one?" She added the last part as an after thought. Kikyo looked at Kagome for a minute longer then shrugged.
" Sure."
When Inuyasha woke up he went out into the main room and saw Kagome standing behind the bar, having a serious conversation with Kikyo, who was sitting across from her. Then the smell of waffles hit his sensitive nose. Inuyasha walked over and started to rummage around behind the bar for some breakfast.
