Chapter Seven: Inuyasha To The Rescue!

Kagome was sitting in a dark corner. Her hair was messed up and it looked like she hadn't showered in weeks, though it had only been a few days. Kikyou was in the other room, discussing what to do with Kagome with Naraku. Kikyou looked great, her face was glowing with happiness and she was thrilled that Inuyasha had not come for Kagome yet. Maybe he had forgotten about her? She certainly hoped so. Naraku looked just as usual, that little smirk still on his disgusting face. "So Naraku," Kikyou said. "What are we going to do with the girl?"

"I thought we had already decided this," said Naraku disdainfully. "I am going to take her eyes and kill her."

"I was thinking we could let Inuyasha do the honors of killing her," Kikyou whispered.

Naraku thought about this for a moment, wondering if he should really say it aloud. She was a powerful miko that could injure him if she got angry with him. In the end, he decided to risk it. "And what makes you think that Inuyasha will listen to you? He didn't the first time anyways."

"Let's see, because I have Kagome and I can kill her whenever I want? I should think he would like to say good-bye at least, he knows that he won't be able to save her!" Kikyou said with a chuckle.

Naraku laughed heartily at this. It was very true that Inuyasha wouldn't be able to kill Kikyou. He loved her too much, AND she was stronger than him.

To Inuyasha now..

Kagura flew just close enough that he could see her, but far enough away so that they couldn't talk. She knew that Naraku would be extremely angry if he knew that she was helping his worst enemy. Kagura wouldn't care at all if only he didn't have her heart (literally!). She would love to be free of him, and maybe even help Inuyasha and the others get all of the Sacred Jewel, but probably not. And anyways, what were the chances of Naraku getting defeated anytime soon? Kagura would just have to lay low for a while, and stay on Naraku's good side until that time comes. Kagura glanced down and saw that Inuyasha was lagging behind. She flew started to fly down so she could yell at him, but noticed in the cloudy, gray skies that saimyosho (A/N: Saimyosho poison insects ! ) were stalking her. Of course, she didn't want to lose Inuyasha, but she also wanted to live through the day, so she decided to pretend to just notice him and go down to "fight" him.

Kagura flew down to the tiny dot that she knew was Inuyasha. "Hey half-breed," she yelled. "What are you doing following me??" The saimyosho flew off.

"What are you talking about?!" Inuyasha said, his temper rising. "You told me too, idiot!"

"You are such an idiot! Did you not notice the saimyosho following us?! I had to act pissed so they wouldn't be suspicious and I would be able to live longer," said Kagura, shocked at how stupid Inuyasha really was.

"Feh. Whatever..," Inuyasha said.

Kagura then started to fly again, this time making sure Inuyasha wasn't too far behind, but just far enough so that if the saimyosho came back they wouldn't think anything was wrong. Finally, they reached a small cabin that Kagura knew Naraku and Kikyou were staying at. Inuyasha was about a mile behind Kagura, and would take him about five minutes to reach the cabin. Kikyou could sense Inuyasha coming, and decided to tell Kagome of her fate now.

Kikyou walked into the room where Kagome was. Kagome had just been sleeping, but she had instantly woken up due to Kikyou's aura. "What do you want, Kikyou?" Kagome asked with anger on her usually content face.

"Oh, not much, really," said Kikyou with a smirk that was worse than Naraku's (and that's hard to beat). "I just wanted to tell you that Naraku and I are not going to kill you."

"Really!?" Kagome exclaimed, she was finally daring to hope that she was going to get out of here soon.

"Yes, really," Kikyou said, she was working hard to hold back her laughter. "Yeah, we decided to let Inuyasha kill you!" Kikyou walked away laughing.

"HE WOULD NEVER DO THAT!" Kagome screamed, tears streaming down her face. What if he did?

"I would think twice about that!" Kikyou shrieked.
