"Kikyo," Inuyasha said in a deep dark whisper. Kikyo's being was heavy and dark. She was up to something. Miroku stood in front of Sango and Kagome. The pack was feeling her, and they knew it was not a good visit. Naraku was dead, and now that he was Kikyo only had one thing more to do. Get Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, you are meant to be with me," Kikyo said, standing a few feet away from the group.
"I don't know who I am supposed to be with Kikyo." Inuyasha was standing in the middle in between his group and Kikyo. The air was stiff, and the fog was light, making the already uneasy night more uneasy.
Kagome didn't really care for that answer; she thought that after all these years and all they had been through that he would want to stay with her. Did she not prove to him that she would always be by his side?
Kikyo was feeling the same way. Did she not care for him? Did she not love him? Did he not promise to always protect her? Did he not say that he would be with her?
Kikyo stepped a few feet forward till she was only a foot away from Inuyasha. Kagome wanted to run out to him, but Miroku blocked her path.
"Inuyasha it is time for you to keep your promise to me."
"Kikyo...I-
"Inuyasha," She cut him off cold," Does that girl really mean more to you than me?"
Inuyasha didn't know what to say. He didn't want to hurt either of them. He loved Kikyo, but then she died, and he fell for Kagome. His silence didn't help.
"Very well, Inuyasha, you give me no choice."
"You're not gonna hurt Kagome," Inuyasha said.
"I do not wish to hurt her, Inuyasha, but something has to be done."
Kagome had enough. "How do you know he is supposed to be with you!" Kagome said, pointing a finger at Kikyo.
"Kagome, stand back," Inuyasha said, hand on his sword.
"How sweet, Inuyasha, Protecting that girl over me, I have seen enough."
Kikyo put her hands together, her two pointer fingers touching her eyes closed, and she was saying nothing. "Miroku, what is she doing?" Kagome asked concerned.
"I dont know! Inuyasha, do something!" Miroku spoke, holding firm to his staff.
But Inuyasha didn't know what to do. "Kikyo!" He yelled, but she didn't open her eyes. Inuyasha closed the space between them and shook her "Kikyo, what are you doing?" He asks in a hurry. But Still nothing. "Kikyo, please stop. I will be with you. Just don't hurt Kagome."
Kikyo slowly opened her eyes and smirked, thump
"Kagome!" Both Sango and Miroku said while dropping to the ground.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER," Inuyasha said, running to Kagome and dropping to his knees.
"Calm down, Inuyasha; I did all of us a favor," Kikyo said, standing there, not moving from her spot. Miroku stepped forward, "Lady Kikyo, what have you done, Kagome?"
A small evil smirk came across her face. "Don't worry, monk; she's merely asleep." She had done something similar to Inuyasha once with a small twist.
"What have you done?" Inuyasha growled, not removing his hold on Kagome.
"She is sleeping and will stay asleep untill her soulmate awakens her with a kiss."
"Inuyasha." It was a very faint whisper; it was Kagome.
"Kagome!" He said shapely.
"I heard her," She said with a smile of hope, but Kagome was known to fake a smile or two. She brushed Inuyasha's cheek before falling into a deep sleep.
"Kagome?" He whispered, "KAGOME!" he yelled.
He held her tight before looking down at her. He was afraid; he was afraid of what his heart already knew. Little did he know, she knew deep down, too. Inuyasha leaned down and pressed his lips to Kagome's. He closed his eyes and held the kiss, not wanting to believe what they both knew. Inuyasha and Kagome were not meant to be.
They were not soul mates.
