Alright, so here's the second chapter to Hidden Demon. I have to admit, I am having a lot more fun with this than I thought I would.

I should be doing my homework (actually, I'm using the main house computer that is meant for homework or work since both my mom's computer charger and my computer charger's port, where you put the charger itself, are broken), but you know this is way more important to me right now. Besides my homework is BORING.

Anyway, thank you love for being my beta. Hope to see you soon. Love you.

Now, enjoy this installment of Hidden Demon. I do not own Inuyasha.

It was soon nightfall and the village was quiet once again. Everyone was asleep, Kagome knew that for a fact, other than the demons. Demons really didn't need to sleep unless it was a luxury. In this village, they usually don't and prefer to take walks around the town or surrounding forests. Kagome knew that they usually hunt during this time to get rid of any lingering wants of killing something. Not to mention they use what they find to sell in the market or give it to neighbors who aren't able to do it themselves.

Kagome looked to the door of her bedroom when she heard a loud snore come from a certain monk in the next room. It was a wonder how anyone could sleep with the sounds he makes coming out of his body. Rolling her eyes, Kagome went back to packing. She had to make sure she had everything in her bag. She didn't want to leave anything behind that might reveal where she went off to.

She did feel guilty however; she was leaving her friends and the group that came to be like family behind. Of course she was taking Shippo with her, but it didn't ease her heavy heart at all. She knew that Sango and Miroku would be out of their minds with worry and Inuyasha… Well, he'll just be upset that he lost his shard detector… Both of them.

As she packed, Kagome felt a tug on her soul. She was here. Standing up silently, Kagome hitched her black backpack onto her shoulder and picked up a slumbering kit. She didn't have the heart to wake him up, it was best that she left him to sleep. Looking around the room one last time to make sure she got everything, Kagome left a note on her pillow and silently slipped out the door.

Outside, Inuyasha lied awake on the roof. Kagome did tell them that the village was safe and well hidden, but he couldn't get to sleep. His instincts wouldn't let him rest with demons everywhere. He saw a few walking around a little earlier, maybe an hour ago.

With a sigh, Inuyasha sat up and swept his bangs away from his eyes. Something was up with Kagome too, he didn't know what though. She's been acting differently ever since that spider demon came yesterday. Not to mention how she was able to defeat it so easily. They all thought that she was just a weak, prissy, human girl. She isn't supposed to be that powerful!

Inuyasha was jerked from his thoughts when he noticed a small form exiting the inn. Looking closer, he noticed the unmistakable form of Kagome with Shippo in her arms. He noticed that Kagome was moving very quickly and towards the forest.

Quietly, he stood up and launched from his perch on the roof into the trees in the direction Kagome was going. He watched as she stealthily made her way through the vegetation, barely brushing against the plants that grew in her path. It was as if she never even passed them.

Inuyasha slowly followed her through the forest and watched as she veered off the path already made into the forest floor and into a clearing deep in the wood.

Hiding behind a rather large tree trunk from his perch on one of the branches, Inuyasha was stumped to see his lost and current lover, Kikyo, also enter the clearing, opposite from him and Kagome.

"Copy." Was all that Kikyo greeted with.

"Clay-pot," Kagome retaliated, not the least bit phased by the insult. She knew that she was not Kikyo's reincarnation despite what the others might think. It became obvious when she realized a little specific detail.

A scowl formed on Kikyo's face as she regarded Kagome with a narrow-eyed glance. Kagome smirked happily as she noticed the change in emotion before it was erased.

"What are you doing here?" Kikyo demanded, rather rudely. Kagome shrugged and her smirk grew wider.

"Felt like taking a walk; it was only by bad luck that I happened to run into something that smelled foul," Kagome said plainly. Kikyo growled deeply. "Anyway, I could ask you the same thing. Running off of schedule, eh? You usually meet Inuyasha on the half full moons don't you?" Kagome could see the shock hit Kikyo hard.

Inuyasha's ears fell flat when he realized that Kagome really did know that he snuck off. Especially on those nights.

"H-how do you know about that?" Kikyo stammered.

"I know a lot of things. Including the fact that you are also sleeping with Naraku," Kagome said as she placed Shippo on her shoulder lightly.

Inuyasha's heart felt as though it been struck by a sword at that and became what felt like dust at what Kikyo said next.

"What are you talking about? I despise half-breeds! They're filthy beings!" she yelled.

Kagome's eyes narrowed into slits and her hand itched as it felt the hidden blade slowly become unhinged and press against her palm. How dare she insult half demons? And indirectly, insult Inuyasha?

"Oh, they are? Then you must love lying with filth then huh? You are made of dirt aren't you?" Kagome sneered. "You really don't deserve Inuyasha at all!"

"Who said I wanted him? I only want to drag him down to Hell with me so that I can get my revenge on the bastard!" Kikyo screeched back.

Kagome growled loudly as she scented Inuyasha's pain in the air. She noticed Kikyo shrink back at the sudden display and a slow, dark smirk covered her lips.

"You. Are nothing more than a piece of the earth that I intend to put back where it belongs. After I take back my soul from you, ungrateful witch," Kagome snarled loudly, feeling the air around her shift as her powers to a darker side.

"How dare y-" Kikyo was cut off as she was forced to her knees by the sudden onslaught on unleashed power that was coming from the still standing teenager.

In his tree, Inuyasha struggled to keep his stance steady as he stared unbelievingly at the petite woman below him. How could she have this much power?

With a cry of pain, Kikyo painfully summoned her soul collectors to carry her away. "This isn't over!" she screamed.

"For now," Kagome calmly replied as she launched poison spikes into the dead woman.

Why are you letting her go? Cried a voice in her head.

Simple. She's heading to Naraku in hopes that he will heal her. She's going to be our warning message to him, Kagome replied with a smile. She then turned towards Inuyasha's direction, who shrank back in fear that she will see him.

With a mere nod, Kagome whispered one word before disappearing into the darkness that surrounded the area.

"Farewell."

Alright, so it isn't as long as the first but this chapter has actually been collecting dust in my flashdrive since before I posted the first chapter.

I would have had these chapters up and ready for you guys sooner, but the first versions were actually wiped off my actual computer when a virus invaded it. And I had the chapters up to three on that thing along with everything else ready to be posted.

Anyway, moving on from that. Please review and tell me what you think about this chapter! I appreciate and love the reviews.

And I cannot promise that the chapters for Not What You Think are going to be here any time soon. I have also decided not to do a sequel for Bella's Emo Singing. I liked it where it ended.

Now, below there is a box that is meant for reviews and I highly suggest typing some comments and then pressing that little sendy button.

Love you baby for being my beta and hope to see you later!

See you next time!
