Summary Kikyou decides that Kagome must die
Once she might have saved Kagome. and her friends. That is what a miko does. Once she might have saved Inuyasha. That is what a lover does. She was no longer a miko. That avocation had been tossed aside for Inuyasha. She was no longer a lover. Her love died in a blaze of glory.
She was a clay shell powered by dead souls. Not dead. Not alive. Suspended between heaven and hell. She thought by dying that she had rid the world of the Shikon no Tama. Instead, it had raised its ugly head yet again
Naraku had given her a purpose. Once she had been the guardian of the Shiko no Tama She no longer needed to guard and purify the Sacred Jewel. All she had to was wait until Naraku collected the Jewel in order to purify the Jewel and Naraku.
Kagome and the rest of the lot were impediments to her plan. Even Inuyasha was in the way. All she had to do was drop Kagome in the miasma that Naraku had convenientially provided as her final resting place
Once they were out of the way, it would be just her and Naraku. She had already sized hin up Naraku. A third rate charlatan. He was no match for her. In the end there would be only one.
She died once to rid the world of the Shikon no Tama. This time she would succeed. Nothing would stand in her way. No even herself. Kagome must die.
