When everyone had returned, the town was in an uproar. They were worried for their queen.
This came as a shock to Sesshomaru, normally towns people disliked, sometimes even hated their ruler. Why was this town so different?
Seeing the confusion on Sesshomaru's face Miroku decided to explain.
"Kagome treats no one below her unfairly; she believes everyone is equal and good. She once told me she believed Naraku was once that way, kind, but has been mislead somewhere" Miroku explained
Inuyasha was about to ask something when he was interrupted by Sango who came charging down the hall screaming like a banshee.
"MIROKU!" Sango yelled. Miroku was immediately by her side.
"Sango what ails you so?" Miroku asked
Sango by no was in hysterics, the only thing Miroku could make out was 'Kagome' and 'Death'
Miroku immediately bolted to his sister's chamber and gasped at what he saw.
Sesshomaru and Inuyasha arrived a few seconds later carrying a shaking Sango. Their eyes widened at what they saw.
Kagome was lying on the bed pale and sweaty; bruises were now visible all over her legs and arms.
Miroku ran forward and was about to touch his sister when a servant stopped him.
"You cannot touch her Sir Miroku, lightly tapping her causes painful bruises to appear" The servant explained head bowed and eyes downcast. She motioned for the other servants to leave along with her.
Miroku fell down on his knees in shock unconsciously crying. A now calmed Sango immediately ran to his side holding him (A/N: Today my favorite word is immediately.)
Not understanding what was going on Sesshomaru took Inuyasha to Miroku's study to sit and wait.
A few moments later the door opened to show a distraught Sango. Inuyasha was immediately at her side. "Are you alright Sango?" Inuyasha asked.
Sango only nodded her head and sat down in the chair facing the two demons.
"I'm sure you do not know of the Late King Higurashi's death, so I will have to starts at the beginning. When King Higurashi was a young boy he contracted an unknown illness. For years many priestesses and priests tried to find a cure. Over the year Lord Asano distanced himself until he met Lady Megumi. They fell in love and had two children. Miroku and Kagome. When Kagome was about ten and Miroku eleven the illness took Lord Asano's life. Lady Megumi suffered and fell into a terrible depression when he died. Miroku had not been home when his father died and when his mother had committed suicide but Kagome was, she was the one who discovered her mother's body at the tender age of twelve. Since Kagome was not old enough to take the throne and Miroku had declined and still trained as a monk Kaede took over. Kaede is also a priestess but has been Kagome' advisor since Kagome could talk. She immediately chose Kaede since she is like and grandmother to her. Kagome grieved but soon got over it, the town grieved but were also joyous both children showed no signs of inheriting the illness" Sango stopped to try and collect herself but Sesshomaru already understood.
"Lady Kagome has contracted the illness" Sesshomaru stated. Sango merely nodded her head to show he was correct. Miroku took that moment to come in.
"Kagome has awoken. Kaede believes she will live a regular life span but Kagome has informed me of something." Miroku didn't even pause for them to say something. "Kagome knew all this time she had inherited the disease but not wanting to cause pandemonium stayed silent. Naraku apparently has found the cure and is only willing to tell it to us if Kagome becomes his bride and gives the Eastern lands to him."
Inuyasha had never felt so much rage in his life. 'Naraku you cruel bastard!' Inuyasha thought.
"What do we do know Miroku?" Sango asked.
"All we can do is help Kagome through these troubling times. It seems Kagome was willing to marry Naraku to discover the cure but wasn't going to give up the lands and lets just say the servants gave her a piece of their minds and locked her in her room" Miroku replied.
Sango lightly smirked. Those servants would go to war if even if they knew it meant certain death just for Kagome.
"How has Naraku discovered the cure?" Sesshomaru asked.
"A demon healer named Mikoko (A/n: I know this is mean but this character is based on a slut who attends my school. She is on the large side and wears pants and shirts that are too small and she called my best friend a slut and was trying to ruin her life so if this character dies a horrible death… . it was because I am unable to do anything in real life . . Though I did get to tell her off and she has now backed of she's all bark and no bite….lol…on with the story . ) found the cure along with Kikyo" Miroku had answered with such venom in his voice it even scared Sesshomaru.
"Who is Kikyo?" Inuyasha asked.
"Kikyo was born in the Sunset Shrine. She is the grand daughter or Kaede though Kaede resents her. Kikyo was a powerful priestess but no where near as strong as Kagome. Kikyo was a cold child, devoid of all emotion while Kagome was the kindest person you would ever meet. Kikyo became jealous and began to tease and taunt Kagome. Even when our parents passed on. Kagome never told a soul about the things Kikyo did but the villagers soon found out and banned Kikyo from the Eastern lands" Miroku explained.
The room became silent. Everyone was thinking. 'What are we going to do now?' It was obvious Kikyo still hated Kagome, but why?
Inuyasha knew why. It was the most obvious but yet everyone was oblivious to Inuyasha's feelings but Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha had fallen in love with Kagome the moment he saw her. She was beautiful, kind, outgoing, and quite the spitfire if need be, but alas Inuyasha and Kagome had been friends, they had even been in love though they never admitted it, but they hadn't seen each other in years.
Kagome was the wielder of they Keyblade but one night the blade was stolen and all signs pointed to Inuyasha, everyone knew it wasn't him but Kagome was too upset to think straight. That sword had been her father's and he entrusted it to her, for her to protect and use. When it was stolen she felt like she had failed her father.
Inuyasha's thoughts and the silence were broke when a maid knocked on the door. "Come in" Miroku said. The maid walked in.
"Lady Kagome wishes to speak to Lord Inuyasha." She said. Everyone's eyes widened Kagome wanted to...talk to…Inuyasha!?!
Inuyasha stood up and walked to Kagome's chambers, before he even knocked he heard a soft come in, knowing Kagome sensed his aura he walked in.
Miroku smiled as Inuyasha left the room. He knew his sister and Inuyasha cared deeply for each other most likely loved each other. Maybe they would confess their feelings?
"About dame time" Sesshomaru mumbled. This caused everyone to laugh.
Inuyasha walked and was relieved to see Kagome looking perfectly healthy. Inuyasha walked in and sat down beside her on the bed. Kagome was wearing a light purple kimono that was decorated with little yellow butterfly's and had a yellow obi.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha!" Kagome blurted out "I'm sorry I accused you! During the battle I saw Naraku holding the Keyblade. I'm so sorry Inuyasha! I had said horrendous things to you, and yet you came back and saved my life! I'm so so sorry!" Kagome by now was sobbing.
Inuyasha's only response was pulling Kagome into his arms. He held her close stroking her hair, rocking her back and forth in an attempt to calm and comfort her.
Kagome soon calmed down but was content in Inuyasha's arms.
"I missed you" Kagome whispered
"I missed you as well" Inuyasha whispered back holding her tighter. There was no other place Inuyasha and Kagome would rather be than here in each others arms.
