Chapter 2: Resurrection

Kikyou opened her eyes slowly, trying hard to savor the feeling of life, but something felt wrong. She could feel the stares of men peering down at her.

"The Priestess has awaken, my lord" said a man, she looked up to face the man. She moved her hand to her head; she could feel a small bump on her head.

"Such a beautiful woman" said the lord. The lord was certainly a handsome man, somewhere around his late twenties. His hair was cut short, and it was a dark brown color. His face looked soft, and his eyes were the color of the brilliant ocean.

"What is your name priestess?" he asked, his voice hard and rough. Priestess? Ayumi turned me back into a priestess? Kikyou thought with a frown on her face.

"Her name is Nariko, she was chased off by angry villagers, miracle she is alive" said another man, Kikyou still held her frown. That explains the bump.

"Why were you being attacked?" he asked her,

"She is a dark priestess, my lord" he said, bowing before the lord as if he predicted the lord would be displeased. The lord gave the men around Kikyou a serious look, then without even looking at them he said

"Leave us"

The room automatically cleared, it was just her and lord know. Even so, Kikyou had no idea what was going on. She thought being resurrected as a priestess alone was bad enough, but she was turned into a dark one instead. How could she get Inuyasha to remember her if she is disguised as an enemy? Dame that Ayumi.

"So, the rumors about you are true" said the lord, he didn't say it as a question, but Kikyou was clueless at this point and answered him with a question.

"And what rumors would that be?" asked Kikyou, not seeming to worry much. She had been in situations like these before, but with Naraku. Because of this, she figured the Lord would be easy for her to trick.

"That you are mysteriously beautiful, and eyes as fierce as a tigers" he said, Kikyou seemed a bit taken aback by his comments. She asked if she could a mirror, but the lord declined and instead pushed a bucket of water towards her. Kikyou looked down at her reflection letting out surprised gasp. She had long black wavy hair. Her skin was no longer its pale lifeless color, it was tan and soft. Her face looked soft and she wore a crescent moon tattoo on her forehead with a small star at the end tip of the moon. The coloring of this odd tattoo was strange to her, but also very beautifully painted on her skin. Her long bangs fell and rested in front of her face. She moved her hand to brush them aside whens he noticed the color of the kimono she was wearing. Purple, a very expensive color. The kimono she was wearing was a dark purple, it was very short and the sleeves were as long as her original hakama she was used to wearing. Her shoes were more like sandles, with black laces that went up her knees. By her side was a long bow staff, and she knew at once that she would have to learn how to fight with a new weapon. She glanced back down at the water bucket and noticed that her brown eyes had stayed the same. She was glad to know this, it would be easier to get Inuyasha to fall for her if she still had the eyes that made him fall for her so long ago.

"I see" said Kikyou, staring at the lord. His eyes, fixed on her. "Can I help you with something?" she asked, there was silence, "then I'll be leaving" she said, grabbing her weapon and standing. The lord stretched his head to grab her.

"Let me go!" she yelled, trying to break away from his grasp.

"Sorry, but that is something I just cannot allow" he laughed, tightening his grip on her. Kikyou could feel his hands running all up and down her body.

"Get your hands off of me!" she shouted, moving her staff and whacking him with it. She felt his hands leave her and ran for it. All of a sudden the guards came running after her, she felt a smile crossing her face. She was loving the jolt of acceleration in her body. She decided to follow her instincts and she stopped running.

"Heh, You want me?" she asked, with a smile, "then come get me" she said, feeling like a rebelled teen. The guards came pouring at her. She used her staff to hold them off, she had never fought like this before, she was using her fists, instead of an arrow. She loved the way it made her feel, like a her burning desire in her was finally being set free. Kikyou moved back and ran again, laughing the whole way. She opened her hands and let the wind flow through her hair, when she was sure she wasn't being followed she sat down.

"I see your having fun" laughed Ayumi, standing next to her.

"Ayumi!" Kikyou stood up angrily, "Why am I a dark Priestess?" she asked, Ayumi hid her face behind her fan.

"Now Kikyou, or 'Nariko' I have no power over who you resurrect as" she said, Kikyou continued to frown at her.

"Would you stop that!" she shouted, she said, putting her fan down. "Your making me nervous." she added with a giggle.

"Fine" Kikyou said, almost pouting.

"Oh, you are so annoying!" yelled a voice, Kikyou quickly hid herself behind a bush.

"Well, if you knew how to cook we wouldn't be having this issue!" yelled another, a voice Kikyou knew instantly. It was Inuyasha and Kagome fighting, again which didn't surprise her.

"So, your assuming I can't cook?" Kagome snarled angrily,

"Feh, I'm not assuming, you really can't cook" said Inuyasha arrogantly, Kikyou watched from afar. Kagome was glaring at him.

"Would ya stop starin' at me like that!" Inuyasha yelled, Kagome turned her back to him.

"Sit!" she shouted, Kikyou watched as Inuyasha fell face down on the floor. The sight scared her, she never knew Kagome treated him like this.

"Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit!" Kagome continued to shout, Kikyou stared in horror.

"What hell Kagome!" yelled Inuyasha, trying to get up.

"Don't 'what the hell" me! If your weren't such a jerk, I wouldn't have to do this! Sit boy!" she screamed, her eyes burning with anger as she stomped off. Kikyou moved from her spot in the bush and ran to Inuyasha.

"Wow, she's got some issues to work out" said Kikyou, truly meaning her words, but also choosing them carefully. She turned to Inuyasha, "You are alright?" she asked, helping him. She smiled at him, he was indeed the same Inuyasha she fell in love with. Inuyasha stared at her for a long time, then rose to his feet.

"Yeah, I'm fine. You get used to it after a while" he said, Kikyou took a step back.

"You mean she does that all the time?" she asked, trying hard to hide her anger. Inuyasha nodded,

"That's just wrong" said Kikyou, Inuyasha laughed.

"Yeah," he said, "Well, I should get going, nice seeing you" he said, turning to walk away. Kikyou smiled at him and waved goodbye even though she'd rather give him a hug. Kikyou stood there, letting the wind blow at her. Letting her memories get the best of her, it was a shame that Kagome was miss-using the scared beads she had made for Inuyasha so long ago. She would have given them to Inuyasha, but after he gave her the gloss of his mothers she felt it would be wrong to give him something that would keep him from trouble.

"There she is!" shouted a voice, Kikyou looked behind her to see the Lord on a majestic white horse and his guards on brown horses. There were so many, she wouldn't be able to fight them all on her own.

"Oh boy, that lord certainly has the hots for you" Laughed Ayumi,

"Oh you're such a big help!" Yelled Kikyou, Ayumi smiled.

"Get her!" yelled the lord, the hundreds of guards came running toward her.

"Uh, Ayumi... What do I do?" she asked, Ayumi frowned at her.

"I am a Geisha, not a warrior, I could tell you how you how meet men and such but-"

"Oh would you shut up!"

"RUN!" shouted Ayumi, Kikyou ran for it. She knew Inuyasha hadn't gotten too far, she continued to run until she saw his white hair and bright red kimono.

"Hi again!" she said, running beside him.

"Hi" he said, kind of awkwardly. "Are you following me?" he asked,

"Huh?" scoffed, "oh, no, I'm just being chased" she said, still running.

"Oh," Inuyasha said, "wait, chased! Why?" he asked, her words settling in his mind. Before Kikyou could answer a spear came in between them.

"Dame" muttered Inuyasha, grabbing hold of Kikyou's hand. "Come on" he told her, tugging her to his left.

"Come back here you wench!" yelled the angry lord. Kikyou looked behind her, the adrenaline taking over her.

"Nah! You'll just have to settle with chasing me!" Kikyou called back. She let out a chuckle of laughter and turned her back to follow Inuyasha. It felt good having Inuyasha's hand locked with her's, though she could feel his sweat it still seemed to feel right, no matter how many times her hand slipped from his. Either way, it always seemed to find its way back in his firm grip. They finally stopped and hid behind a large tree, they were both panting like crazy.

"Why the hell are they chasing you?" asked Inuyasha falling to the floor, dragging Kikyou along with him.

"Haha, well the Lord sort of wants to marry me" she told him, "I said no... violently." She said, trying to smile. Inuyasha stared at her again, his hand slowly reaching her face. Kikyou didn't hesitate, his touch didn't bother her, in fact it was pleasurable, she just didn't know why Inuyasha was touching her right now.

"Um... What are you doing?" she asked, even though she wanted nothing more than to kiss him.

"Your eyes" he said, "they, look..." his words trailed off. He held his position for a few more seconds then dropped his hands.

"Sorry" he said, "it's just your eyes remind me of someone I knew" he said. Kikyou forced herself to choke back tears as he said the word 'knew,' someone he 'knew.' If only she could tell him she wasn't dead, that she was sitting right in front of him.

"Aha! Gotcha!" yelled the Lord, grabbing Kikyou away from Inuyasha. Holding her tightly around the waist, his hands rough and hard.

"Urgh! Let me go!" she screamed, as the Lord took off on his horse.

"Not a chance, you will be my bride, one way or another" he smiled deviously. Kikyou tried to release herself when Inuyasha jumped in front of the horse. He stood there in a cool laid back manner, cracking his knuckles with a serious expression on his beautiful face.

"Let her go" he said,

"What's a foolish boy like you going to do if I don't?" said the lord sarcastically. A sly smile crossed Inuyasha's face.

"You shouldn't tempt me" he said, "now, let her go, she doesn't belong to you"

"And I suppose she belongs you?" asked the Lord, Inuyasha seemed a bit taken back, and his eyes went soft for a moment, then harsh again.

"Yes, she does, and I want her back" he said, Kikyou's eyes widened. Wow, this is going quicker than I thought she thought smiling to herself.

"Is this true? Do you belong to him?" asked the lord with sad eyes, interrupting her thoughts.

"Huh? Oh, yeah, were uh... mates! Yep, lovers for life" she babbled, and felt herself blush when she realized what she was saying. She looked over at Inuyasha who's face was also blushing and also looked very very annoyed.

"I don't care, you will still stay by my side and you will marry me!" Yelled the Lord.

"I will not!" Kikyou yelled back,

"Enough!" yelled Inuyasha, jumping up and punching the Lord in the face. Causing him to fall to fall of his horse and drop Kikyou on the ground. She a huge rush of pain flood through her, she let out a yelp of pain.

"This isn't over!" Spat the Lord, running away on his horse. Inuyasha ran back to Kikyou,

"Your hurt" he said, "where at?" he asked,

"My leg, I think it's broken" she said, she already knew it was broken, but she needed to continue her act.

"Dame it all" he muttered, touching her broken leg, Kikyou winced at the pain.

"Oh that hurts!" she yelled,

"Calm down! It's not like I'm doing it on purpose!" he yelled back, Kikyou didn't say anything. She couldn't, she didn't want to fight with him. She had done that all her life, she wasn't going to ruin her second chance.

"Sorry, it just hurts" she said, innocently, looking up at him with sad eyes. Inuyasha looked away,

"I should have had him put you down first and then punched him" said Inuyasha, Kikyou let out a soft chuckle.

"I'm sure that would have been less painful" she giggled. Inuyasha smiled,

"Here, I'll take you back with me to the village, we've got someone there who can help you with your leg, I'm no good with herbs" he said, and lifted her onto his back. He began walking slowly, each thump she felt while on his back made her feel like she was in heaven. She was in her arms again, though it wasn't how she planned; not that she planned at all. Still, it was comforting, being in his arms again.
