Chapter Five

Kikyo and Inuyasha meet

_With Kikyo_

Kikyo opened the guild doors and looked inside. The first thing she saw was Inuyasha, staring at her, shocked. Kikyo' s heart almost stopped beating. 'No….why?!' she screamed internally. Her knees felt weak and she slumped down to the floor. Erza was at her side in a heartbeat. "Are you okay?" she asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Kikyo managed to say and stood up. "My name is Kikyo Takahashi. I want to join this guild.

Everyone was very happy. After all which guild keeps getting new members every two days? Mirajane called Kikyo and introduced her to Master Makarov. After that, Kikyo drank a glass of water.

~~~~Flashback~~~~

Kikyo walked in a field full of blooming flowers. This was her favourite place to think. And, she was thinking about what had happened yesterday.

Inuyasha had told her he loved her!

He had run of before she could answer, though. But tomorrow, she would tell him that the feeling was mutual. Kikyo couldn't wait.

It was then when she heard rustling behind her. Before she could turn around, a knife slashed at her shoulder, twice. Kikyo gasped in pain and fell down. She looked up and to her shock and dismay, it was Inuyasha.

~~~End of Flashback~~~

Kikyo snapped out of her trance when she heard Mirajane calling her.

"Yes?" she asked.

"Where would you like your guild mark to be?" Mirajane asked sweetly.

"On my right shoulder." Kikyo replied and pulled up her sleeve.

"Alright-"Mirajane began, but then clasped her hand over her mouth in shock. "Oh dear!"

On Kikyo's right shoulder, there was a long, red, ugly scar. Mirajane felt sorry for Kikyo, what could've happened to her? She hastily put on the stamp and then Kikyo pulled up her sleeve.
