Kagome and the other had began their journey only a day after Kagome came back from the well. Now that she knew that the child within her womb would have a loving father she couldn't help but return to her normal self as well as even be more cheery than usual. Inuyasha was also happy to know that his Kagome was safe, happy, and healthy as she was pup with his pup. The others also had begun to be more cheery, even Miroku who wasn't the usual one to show emotion of course since he was a Monk, but he was also human as well. They both were also nicer to Inuyasha for they still felt terrible and knew he was still mad at him for what they had called him, which they both knew was understandable.
They had walked all day with no sigh of a jewel shard or any trouble in the matter. They soon came to a village and they had received free rooms for removing the 'evil presence' from the hotel. Now Kagome sat in her room with her pack trying to retrieve the ramen she and the others would feast upon that night. Once she got them she turn to little Shippo who was paying with a toy of his.
"Shippo" Kagome ask catching the young demons attention.
"Yes mom?" Shippo ask, Kagome smiled at the new name Shippo had given her as she continued with her question.
"Can you please go fine Inuyasha and tell him to get some fire wood for dinner?" Kagome ask, the fox's demon smiled as he nodded. Shippo quickly jump up and ran outside to fine the half-demon. Once outside Shippo began to track down Inuyasha. He soon found Inuyasha sitting in a tree slightly far away from the village, more in likely making sure that it was save and had no threat near by.
"Inuyasha!" Shippo yelled, Inuyasha look down at Shippo before he jump down and landed in front of Shippo.
"Ya?" Inuyasha ask.
"Kagome wants you to get some fire wood for her" Shippo said, Inuyasha nodded as he then began to jump off to find a tree to cut down. Shippo smiled as he had completed the 'big boy' task. He then began to hurry his way back to the hotel until a strange butterfly had caught his attention. It was pure white with red designs on its wings it was a beautiful butterfly indeed.
'Maybe I can catch it' Shippo thought happily as he ran to the butterfly which was now on a flower. Shippo reach a hand out to it, but then it flew away. Shippo began to follow it non stop, focus to catch the Butterfly and show it to his mother. But little did Shippo realized, that he had begun to get farther away from the village. He kept getting farther and farther away until he was a mile away as the butterfly finally stopped to rest on another flower. Shippo got in a pouncing like way as he waited for the right moment to catch it, still waiting for it Shippo begun get closer until he was at a spot that was as close as he could get without the butterfly flying away. Then Shippo jump up from the air and tackled the flower the butterfly coming into his hands. Shippo then moved a thumb from his closed hands to see if the butterfly was in his hands. It was in his hands as Shippo smiled widen at the fact the butterfly had been caught. Shippo look at the butterfly again admiring its beauty, but then something surprising happen. The butterfly began to crumble away, and to Shippo shock it finally flew away from his hands as dust in the wind. Shippo stared at his hands with confusion until he herd a voice that sent chills into his bones.
"Well, hello there" Shippo turned around to see where the voice came from, Shippo then shook with fear as he look up and saw Kikyo before him. She had the same smiled she had before she had kidnap him and had hurt him. So Shippo did the only thing any one would do at a time like this, Shippo begun to run. But he didn't get far as he ran head first into a barrier purifying him a little. Shippo let out a small whimper from the in pack as he got up, only to feel her lifting him up by grabbing the back of his neck. Once up she turned him around to look into her cold and some what scary dead eyes.
"Now we don't want that to happen again now do we?" She ask as her other hand went to touch him, feeling her spiritual power from hand.
"No!" Shippo yelled trying now to desperately escape but sadly his claws were no match for Kikyo skin made out of hard clay.
Miroku walk into the hut with a bucket of water as he gave it to Kagome who was still waiting for the fire wood. Sango was reading one of Kagome very interesting 'magazines' as she called it looking at all of the strange and bazaar things. Kagome look up and gave Miroku a small smile to see the water in his hands as he set it down by Kagome.
"Here you go Kagome" Miroku said, Kagome smiled as she took the water from him with a smile.
"Thank you very much Miroku" Kagome said as she took the bucket from him and set it down ready for when they would have to boil it. Then Inuyasha came in with some fire wood beginning carried by one arm with no problem in the slightest. He set the wood in the fire as Kagome gave him one of her brilliant smiles.
"Thank you" Kagome said, Inuyasha just 'ked' but couldn't help but let out a small smile. Kirara then came next to Kagome as she set up the wood, with Kirara help the fire had turned into a nice bright fire. Kagome set the kettle of water on top of the fire and then waited for it to boil. She waited for 5 minuets until the water began to boil, she quickly filled each ramen cup with noodles as she then gave every one some ramen. As they began to eat Kagome then realized that Shippo wasn't there. Kagome mentally slap herself for not paying enough attention as she then look at Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, do you know where Shippo is?" Kagome ask, Inuyasha look up from his bowel quickly searching through his head if he had any information of such thing.
"No, why do you ask?' Inuyasha ask, Kagome then look at Shippo bowel as she answered.
"He isn't her for dinner" She said, Inuyasha saw how worried Kagome was already becoming so Inuyasha sigh as he stood up.
"I'll go look for him then, okay?" Inuyasha ask, Kagome nodded before getting up and walk towards the door, Inuyasha stop her by grabbing her arm gently but firmly.
"Where do you think you're going in that condition?" Inuyasha ask for he was now more protective of Kagome, Kagome sigh as she pulled her arm away and then glared at him.
"Because I'm going to go fine him, he is my son after all" Kagome pointed out Inuyasha growled as he 'ked'.
"And you're also pup and with the possibility something dangerous is out there that could hurt you when me or Miroku can go out and look for Shippo." Inuyasha pointed out, Kagome sigh as she knew he was right but something felt wrong, and Inuyasha soon realized with the look on her face he was not going to convince her other wise.
"Please Inu, I just got this feeling…please" Kagome ask now closing her eyes and opening them with her long lashes making her look adorable and not to mention the puppy face, Inuyasha 'ked'.
"Fine but I'm coming with you," Inuyasha said, Kagome smiled as she walk up to him and gave him a small peck on the cheek before going out of the hut with a blushing half-demon following her after a minuet of shock. Sango giggled as Miroku shook his head at the sight before him.
Kagome followed Inuyasha as he was on the ground sniffing out Shippo sent. They followed the trail until they were a quarter mile away from the village. Inuyasha stop dead in his tracks as he pick up another sent, he slowly sat up with Kagome looking at him with worry in her eyes.
"Inuyasha" Kagome ask wondering why he was acting like that, Inuyasha then turned to his left looking at some bushes.
"I know you're there, come on out" Inuyasha said in a quiet voice but it was clear he was not happy. Kagome turned to the bushes as they began to move, Kikyo then came from the bushes as Kagome felt her heart beat in anger and sadness and something else she couldn't tell. Kikyo smiled as Inuyasha growled at her.
"It's nice to see you again" Then her grin got wider "love". Kagome felt her heart fall as Inuyasha growled even louder gripping his sword trying his best to keep his demon out, he couldn't let his demon lose when so close to a human village.
"What the hell do you want Kikyo?" Inuyasha snapped, Kikyo just continued to smile as she walk a little closer.
"Am I not allowed to visit you my little half demon?" Kikyo ask, thinking she had Inuyasha wrap around her little finger, she was soooo wrong.
"I'm not your dog you whore" Inuyasha snapped again his voice sounding a little darker as Tetsusaiga was also losing some of its power to stop Inuyasha enrage demon side.
"Your right," Kikyo said as she then sent a glare full of hatred towards Kagome. "She is" Kikyo said pointing towards Kagome, Kagome was slightly shock at Kikyo surprisingly good come back as Inuyasha finally in rage leap out for an attack meant to kill. But stop as Kikyo then held something or some one in front of Inuyasha. Shippo was held up by his tail obviously knock out from pain and lack of blood. Kagome gasp as she saw her little boy like that, he had bruises all over him with scratches and one bad one on his leg to originally keep him from running. Inuyasha stop as he then grasped Tetsusaiga in his hand not allowing to lose control so his demon wouldn't hurt Shippo. Kikyo smiled as she held Shippo, the little brat had put up a fight and so she had to teach him a lesson to tell him to stop moving and to simply do what she wanted with him.
"Shippo?" Came Kagome small yet clear voice as she saw what happen to him, Inuyasha bangs covered his eyes as he held his sword tight.
"What do you want Kikyo?" Inuyasha ask in a monotone voice as he saw Kikyo grin, she then gave her answer which just pissed Inuyasha off to no end.
"Nothing" She said while throwing Shippo down with Inuyasha catching him just in time before he hit the ground. Kikyo waited expecting to hear Inuyasha ask the obvious question that was to follow, but was surprised when Kagome ask it.
"What?" Kagome ask in an even more impressive monotone voice. "You mean to tell me you just did this to Shippo, and you have no reason in coming here?" Kagome ask, Kikyo decided to humor the poor pathetic copy of her as she answered her question.
"Yes, I needed to be sure Inuyasha would come to me in case he was too occupied at the moment." Kikyo said as if it was the most logical thing to do in the world. Kagome then began to physically shake as her fist tighten.
"Kagome?" Inuyasha ask now concern for her, Kagome then walk pass Inuyasha as she walk closer to Kikyo. Kikyo look at Kagome curiously, Kagome was always a shy weak girl Kikyo would have figured she was just stand there and watch, not really do anything. Soon Kagome stood in front of Kikyo as her eyes were covered by her bangs. Then before Inuyasha could even come close to making heads or tail of the strange way Kagome was acting, she did something that surprised both of them. Kagome slap Kikyo, and it was no small slap either. It was a slap strong enough to put every slap Sango had ever given to Miroku in shame, a slap hard enough that it left a noticeable crack on Kikyo clay cheek and even knock her down off her feet. Kikyo hand went up in pure instinct for she felt no pain but it was just a surprise and she had herd the small crack of clay.
"You heartless Bitch" Kagome said, again catching Inuyasha off in surprised for Kagome had never swear before even when she and Inuyasha had become one that night. "You used Shippo as some kind of bait? Just so you can fuck with my mate and hurt my soon, so you can play with my emotions and heart as if it were a fucking toy?" Kagome yelled as she finally look up so Kikyo could see her eyes that held a emotion that was rare, if not never seen in Kagome eyes…they were filled with hate. "Guess what Kikyo, INUYASHA IS MY MATE, YOU HEAR ME? MY MATE AND TRUST ME IF HE HAD WANTED TO COME TO YOU I WOULD NOT HAVE STOOD IN HIS WAY! I WOULD HAVE NOT TRIED TO FORCE HIM ON ME, IF HE LOVE YOU AND WOULD HAVE BEEN HAPPY WITH YOU I WOULD HAVE LET HIM GONE WITH YOU!" Kagome now screech into the air, Kikyo had drawn the last line. "BUT NO HE LOVES ME KIKYO, ME! SO GET OVER IT BECAUSE INUYASHA IS HAPPY WITH ME, AND AS LONG AS HE IS HAPPY WITH ME AND OUR FAMILY YOU WILL NOT SO MUCH AS LAY A GODAMN FINGER ON HIM, MY SON, OR ANY MORE OF OUR FRIENDS BECAUSE IF YOU DO I WILL SEND YOU TO HELL FASTER THAN YOU CAN TAKE ANOTHER GODDAMN FUCKEN BREATH!" Kagome scream again, Inuyasha and Kikyo stare at Kagome with a surprised expression. Once Kagome was sure Kikyo got the message loud and clear she soon began to calm down as she turn back to Inuyasha and walk over to him and took Shippo out of his arms. She held him close with tears in her eyes as she sees her son in a sleep full of pain, Inuyasha gets up and wraps his arms around Kagome and Shippo as Kikyo watch in shock. Soon her surprise expression turns to one of hate and disgust as she gets up and with one more dirty look at them walk away.
'They will pay, both of them until Inuyasha is mine' Kikyo thought as she then disappeared while the 2 lovers and son were together.
"Inuyasha…." Kagome whispered, Inuyasha pulled back a little so he could look into her eyes that now had tears for something else in her eyes. "I'm sorry what I did to Kikyo, I just…..I had to" Kagome said, while looking down hoping Inuyasha wasn't made at her. Inuyasha look at her as she again amaze him, she was always so selfless.
"Shh Kagome its okay," Inuyasha said while lifting her head to look her straight into her eyes. "I would have done the same thing, if not worse, no one especially Shippo doesn't deserve to be treated like that" Inuyasha whispered. Kagome felt more tears in her eyes as she lean up and they both shared a sweet yet passionate kiss. Then Kagome felt Shippo move in her arms, Kagome looks down to see Shippo open his tried eyes.
"Kagome…" He whispered, Kagome smiled as she moved a hand to move some hair out of his face.
"Where's Kikyo?" Shippo ask, now fear in his eyes Kagome shh him as she held him close and Inuyasha held her close to him.
"Its okay Shippo, she'll never hurt you again" Inuyasha whispered as he held them closer.
"Never," Kagome confirm as they stayed like that, holding each other, promising them with all his heart that Kikyo blind revenge and love with never hurt them….never.
