Hanyou met miko's eyes. Miko met hanyou's eyes.
There was fear, apprehension and confusion in their gazes. Kagome…had eaten the almost complete Shikon Jewel.
"I thought…the Shikon miko had no use for the Jewel… you weren't… supposed to eat it," the hanyou finally said, surprise evident on her face.
Kagome frowned uncomfortably, "It is so," she finally admitted and slowly sat in front of the hanyou.
They both remained silent, oblivious to the cries of the demons near them. Sesshomaru's youki was still ragging, out of control. The bird demon was still losing his blood non-stop.
"What does this mean?" the green-haired female asked uncertainly, her eyes clear now as her mind fuzzed over the events that had just happened.
Kagome faced her with a determined face, "Now I save them."
The hanyou watched Kagome come to her feet and even helped her regain her balance when she tumbled on her injured leg…product of the shove of a moment ago. Together they neared Sesshomaru and Kagome hissed when the youki started to prick at her skin. This is how being purified must feel like… it was horribly painful.
"So, how do you plan to do this?" asked the female hanyou, unsure of what to do about the situation.
