~Sesshomaru~

The clearing fell dead silent at the sound of Sangos words.

"We have to find Kikyo." The moment the words left her mouth it was like everyone had frozen. The only one who was lost in the situation was the miko girl. But she remained silent, and Sesshomaru guessed it was because of the deadly aura he and Kouga were emiting. He saw her eyes flit around the group, landing on each individual in turn, hoping someone would speak.

"Why the hell should we go find the pot bitch? And didn't she die already? For the second time?" Kouga demanded, stepping forward, eyes narrowed at the slayer girl. The monk took a step forward, in front of her, holding a defensive glare.

"Think about it!" Sango continued, attempting to reassure them all.

"We need Kagome's spiritual powers right?" The nodded after a moment of thought.

"Well, we obviously can't get them from Kagome... But if we can find Kikyo, the person who gave Kagome her powers..." She trailed off, hoping they'd catch on. They did.

"She makes sense guys..." Miroku, nodded reculantly, "Though I hoped it would never come to this..." Sesshomaru stepped forward.

"The wolf just said the clay pot was dead. How can we find her when she no longer roams this world, dead or alive?" He was wary, and cautious. He would do anything for Kagome, but her had a really bad feeling about this. Sango and Miroku glanced at eachother, worried. Sango nodded, and Miroku sighed, and faced Sesshomaru.

"About half a year ago, Kikyo died by Naraku's hands. It was what the bastard always wanted, was her death. We believe Inuyasha lost apart of his heart that night. About three months later, she reappeared before us, and Inuyasha was so happy, and it crushed Kagome into a million pieces. Things had finally started for them, and were going very well, when Kikyo returned. It destoried them. You know she moved in with you to be safer, and free from Inuyasha. But what an absured thought as that, she needed to be protected from the man she'd loved, in fear he'd kill her?" He sighed, and Sango got teary eyed.

"Once Kikyo returned, Inuyasha got further and further from who he used to be, even before she "died". Soon he became an utterly different person. A monster. He would control Kagome, make her do the most cruel of things. And of course she allowed it. She loved him. He would treat her like shit, just because he could. For a long time, Sango and I couldn't tell if she obeyed him out of love, or fear." Sangos tears fell.

"It just got worse and worse, and Kagome, over those months, lost the light in her eyes, the love in her aura, and the warmth in her touch. She rarely smiled, and when she did, it was because he forced her to. About six months ago, Inuyasha attacked us all. Just burst in, and started a rampage, with no explaination. We all suffered major injuries. Thankfully, Kagome was safe at home. After we restrained him, we found out that Kikyo had killed herself. We were given no reason as to why, but Inuyasha was set it was Kagomes fault. He treated her worse from then on out. That whole time, we believed Inuyasha was under the belief that Kagomes soul would take away Kikyos, and Kikyo would leave Inuyasha once again. He hated her for it. Loathed her very existance. If Sango wasn't always at her side, she may have been abused by him." He sighed, and hugged Sango, who was bursting out in tears.

"Less than 2 months ago, Kikyo showed up in our village. She wouldn't tell us why. She wouldn't tell us anything. She simply appeared, asked for Inuyasha and left. At the time, Inuyasha was battling some sort of demon in another village. Her scent disappeared before he returned, and he never knew of her visit. We haven't seen her since. Kagome doesn't know either." A single tear fell down Mirokus cheek.

"We could do nothing. That whole time, Kagome was set on staying. She'd never leave him." Sango sobbed.

Sesshomaru's mind was set into a frenzy. "We'll find her, force her to help us... and kill her."
