Kagome's Heart POV

. Learning Part 1

Kagome POV

The jewel shards floated up from the centre room as I entered . I could fell them , but I didn't call them .

Naraku was hiding behind the tatami , I could see his shadow .

"I see you mastered a new skill," he said . Smoke was puffing from behind the tatami .

The shards followed me as I stepped closer to the tatami .

"The coldness you feel is resentment . Anger" he said , still hiding behind the tatami . "The more you feel the stronger you become . The quicker and more solid the jewel becomes"

I grunted . My miko powers were picking up on his dark aura . Sparks shooting across my chest . I took a step back : he didn't fully explain but I needed more information .

Another puff of smoke arose . I watched it slowly glide across the walls , making a small image that slowly faded away .

He blew out another before he spoke . "You aura tells me you have learned more than attraction," he said . More smoke , again .

"Umm," I said . There were seven shards spinning around me .

Naraku took one step out of the tatami . The shards rapidly span around me , almost blinding with their light . Next thing I know there's a purple barrier over my body .

What da?

Naraku chuckles . "Just as I suspected," he took another step forward , my barrier throwing sparks across it . "Your miko powers have gone into activation . This I can verify from the shards reaction . They stayed put with me before you came"

Another huge puff of smoke . Naraku half frowned . "I see that I over estimated my late enemy" He puffs a small cloud out . His talking about the amount of shards his dead enemy had.

The room surprisingly doesn't stink of smoke . No , but something else . "Heart" he said reading my mind . "Human heart to be correct" he smirked .

"Release your barrier , miko" he ordered , taking a step back .

I didn't know how , but I wasn't going to let Naraku know that .

I breathed out and told my self his not a threat . Somehow that worked and the barrier slowly went down .

"Well done," he praised me . "Now your arrows" he looked to the corner of the room , curtly . So I did as well . And crossbow was sitting there waiting for me . It had and weak jewel shard . "Two tasks at hand" he said , puffing . "Call the crossbow to you , then replenish the jewel shard"

I looked at the crossbow . The jewel shard was extremely weak . I called in my head . Letting out my hand . I heard in swoosh through the air , then it tapped on my hand . It was stronger now . The shard glew intensely .

"I underestimated you , Kira," he puffed .

What ? How did he know my new name ? And why was he calling me it ?

I loaded the arrow onto the crossbow and aimed it at Naraku . He flinched at the first sight . I smiled , swishing the crossbow around to the doors behind me I shot the arrow directly at demon behind it . The doors crashed all together , then the demon exploded from the impact of my arrow .

I didn't hear Naraku inhale but I heard him exhale/ sigh of relief. I turned back round to Naraku , me smirking like hell .

"That would be to easy," I smirked deeper . "I kill you when it's your time."

He smirked . I read his thoughts

- I'll be looking forward to our fight , then , Kira .

Again with him calling me that .

"But" he stated , breaking my track of thought . "I doesn't seem as your shard is yet ready to release" He smirked . I wonder , I read his mind again .

- her feelings are too weak for the shard to be active . She needs more anger and resentment .

I understood . "I deal" I said breaking his track of thought . "I will assists any of your men at work" I stated . "But in return I want one tainted shard," I smirked . I bet I could pull a reverse affect on the shard , thus making me more powerful with no side affects I already had half my plan in my head .

Naraku looked shock . But he regained his composure quickly , looking cold and distant . "We have came to an agreement" he said .

I nodded .

"Good , but I would like my own shards back." I smirked . Replying all the shards off me . I watched them soot at Naraku , each one skimming his skin . All of them tearing small shreds of flesh off .

"Be careful , Naraku" I said stepping out the mansion . "I never miss twice"

I sent an telepathic wave to him / message :

-- When I am needed send a insect to and for my destination , telling who I am working with .

He sent me a wave back that shocked me a little bit .

- you never seize to impress me .

And with that I was off , putting my next step in action .

Inuyasha's POV

Kouga never once looked at Alley on our way . He just looked straight a head . Alley's eyes were pouring into Kouga's back as she watched him run , while she was sitting on Kilala . Kouga knew she was looking at her , but he never looked up . For some reason I got angry at this . At him , but I contained it . Clenching my fist .

He looked at me while he was running , he gave me a half funny look . "Can you smell that?"

I looked back at him . I was too busy looking at Kouga and Alley to notice an smell .

"Yeah," I half lied , I was catching the scent .

"Let run faster," he said speeding up . I had too once again jump high in the sky just to keep up with him . The scent triggered my memory , badly . I felt a couple of emotions rush through me , so fast that I didn't even know what they were . I know that smell .

We were getting closer to a country side , I could smell the fresh grass .

We were there . And there in front of me was Kikyuo . Her bow and arrow pointing straight into my chest .

"Inuyasha," she growled . The point of her arrow , intensely burns of light in my chest . She glares at me coldly . "Where are your jewel shards?," she asked .

"Kikyuo," I gasp .
