Hi! Here is Chapter Five of Kikyou's Wrath! In case you forgot, in the last chapter we found out that Kikyou looked very different, almost like a demon.. in this chapter we are going to find out if she is a demon, or something just happened to her.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha and co., unfortunately. :(
Chapter Five: Kikyou, The Demon?
Kikyou did look very different from the last time Inuyasha saw her. Her eyes were glistening in anger, her hair was cut short, in her face it showed that she was very angry and her skin was paler than before. The whole time that Inuyasha was there, Kikyou would only glare at him. Inuyasha was staring at Kikyou, a little frightened of her and asked, "Kikyou, what happened to you?"
Kikyou, who was still glaring at him, replied, "That is not important right now. Inuyasha, may I speak with you in private?"
"Of course you can," Inuyasha said. "Kagome, I'll be right back."
Inuyasha and Kikyou walked over to an isolated corner of the village. When they got there Kikyou angrily said, "Inuyasha, I remember asking you to get rid of my reincarnation. What is she still doing here? Do you care about her more than me?"
Inuyasha thought about her question a bit before answering with, "Kikyou, of course I still care about you, but I care about Kagome too. I still haven't decided whether or not to get rid of her. Also, will you please tell me what happened to you?"
"Fine," Kikyou said, giving into Inuyasha. "If you must know, my hair is short because I just finished purifying a demon, but he was stronger than I thought."
"You also look angry, are you mad at me?"
"Of course I am. Now I must go. I have other things to do. I will be back in a few days to see if my reincarnation is gone. Good-bye Inuyasha," suddenly, Kikyou disappeared into the forest surrounding them. Inuyasha slowly walked back to Kagome and the others.
"So, Inuyasha, what did you two do?" Miroku asked, clearly thinking of something perverted.
Inuyasha glared at Miroku a little bit before answering with, "All we did was talk. That's all."
"Aw, come on, there is no need to lie to us...," Miroku replied.
"I'M NOT LYING!!" Inuyasha yelled. Inuyasha heard a chuckle and turned to see Kagome sitting far away from him, staring into space. Obviously she didn't believe that he was telling the truth. "Kagome, I'm not lying, I can explain why she wan-" Inuyasha was cut off by Kagome.
"NO! THE ONLY THING YOU'RE GOING TO TELL ME IS LIES! I CAN'T TRUST ANYTHING YOU SAY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN YOU AND KIKYOU ANYMORE. I WISH YOU WOULD JUST TELL ME THE TRUTH! IF SHE ASKED YOU TO DO HER A FAVOR, THEN WHAT WAS THE FAVOR?! I DOUBT SHE REALLY ASKED THAT," Kagome screamed, her cheeks were flushed red from anger.
Sango and Miroku were slowly backing away from Kagome and Inuyasha, not wanting any part in this fight.
"NOTHING I HAVE TOLD YOU HAVE BEEN LIES! WHY DON'T YOU TRUST ME??" Inuyasha inquired.
"Um, let's see," Kagome said, finally calming down. "Because you have lied to me before on the subject? Ugh I don't want to hear anymore excuses. I'm going to sleep."
"Feh. Whatever," Inuyasha replied.
Kagome set up her sleeping bag in a secluded corner on the outskirts of their camp. Shippou was too scared of her temper to crawl into bed with her, so he decided to spend the night with Kirara. Kagome was glad about that, because she was afraid she might yell at the young kitsune if he had spent the night with her. Kagome slowly drifted off to sleep, dreaming of a nice, feather bed and a world without Kikyou to mess things up. As though she knew Kagome was dreaming about her permanent removal from this world, Kikyou showed up at the edge of the forest that Inuyasha and the others were staying at. She was disguising her scent, however, so Inuyasha wouldn't know she was there. Following closely behind Kikyou, was Naraku. Kikyou had also hid Naraku's scent, so Inuyasha would not know he was there, also. Naraku glared down at Kagome. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He gently picked her up so as not to disturb her sleep, and followed Kikyou into the forest.
Now Chapter Five is over, and we shall go to another Author's Note, by the author of this story.
Well, I'm back. Sorry I haven't been able to update, but Winter Break is over, and I have been caught up in school and such, and have been extremely tired. I might only be able to update on weekends, so I will start working on Chapter Six tomorrow, and if I am lucky, I might be able to update before Monday! I'm so sorry for the shortness of this chapter, but I really wanted to update, so I wrote this all in one day..so that might explain for the shortness and a few of the mistakes? So..Kikyou is not a demon (Well she is, but on the inside...), and she has joined forces with Naraku! I wonder what they are planning? Find out in the next chapter of Kikyou's Wrath! Thanks for reading this:)
Love,
Moon of Ice
