Sometimes, Two Wrongs Do Make A Right
*~*~Chapter 5*~*~*
Kagome had been traveling to the past for a little more than a
year. Yes it was a hard thing to balance school and searching
for the shards but traveling in the past did have its
advantages. One advantage was training with Kaede and Sango. She
tried to train with Miroku but there were problems in that
relationship. (You know with all the groping.)
Because of the training Kagome wouldn't be totally defenseless
without her bow and arrows. She also could sense demons, define
auroras and knew basic marshal arts. Another benefit was how fast
Kagome became. She was unusually fast for a normal human and very
flexible.
Yes. All the benefits of Sengoku Jidai. But as she looked into
the amber eyes of Inuyasha all that information, all she learned
was gone. It seemed as the world stop as Inuyasha stared at her.
"I.I.Inuyasha..What are you doing here?" Kagome said ever so softly
Inuyasha barely heard it. "Easy I came for MY jewel shards
WENCH!!!" Inuyasha snarled as he moved in on Kagome. Feeling
threatened Kagome steeped back bumping into the table.
Inuyasha could smell the fear radiating off Kagome. For a second
it hurt him that the one he sworn to protect was scared of
him. He viciously shook his head. 'No I have Kikyou now.' When
Kagome had left, Kikyou joined the shard-hunting group. Shippou had
immediately yelled at how stupid he was and decided to stay
with Kaede until Kagome came back. Sango and Miroku wanted to
leave but they all had to find Naraku so against better judgment
as Sango put it they had stayed.
"What are you waiting for wench GIVE ME THE DAMN SHARDS...THEY
RIGHTFULLY BELONG TO KIKYOU ANYWAY!!!" Inuyasha said crossing his
arms over his chest as if to end the conversation.
"No they don't." Something within Kagome snapped when he told her
that. All of sudden Kagome's body began to emit a vibrant purple
light.
"I AM THE PROTECTOR OF THE SHIKON NO TAMA. NOT YOU...NOT KIKYOU
NOT ANYONE ELSE. JUST ME!!"
All of a sudden to jewel was in her hands backing her up by
giving of another purity light. Inuyasha growled. 'Of course the
jewel belongs to Kikyou. She's just a copy of the original.'
"Well if your not going to give it to me I'm going to take
them by force." Knowing she didn't really stand a chance fled
out the door with the sacred jewel. 'I can't let him get it no
matter what. It's my responsibility to protect the jewel.' Kagome
said as she ran down the street with Inuyasha in hot pursuit.
Fortunately for Kagome the streets were empty on this late
afternoon. Kagome could here Inuyasha gaining on her so she did
the first thing that came to mind.
"Inuyasha, Sit Boy." Happy with the crash she heard Kagome didn't
bother to turn around. But then Inuyasha did something even he
didn't expect to do.
"IRON REEVER SOUL STEALER!!!" Kagome turned around just in time to
block the attack with one of her shields. The shield was
protecting her the shear force of the attack was pushing her
back as she struggled to withstand the shield. If Kagome wasn't
in such deep concentration she might have noticed the reason no
one saw them was because they were in the deep part of the
park were she first met Yusuke.
Kagome was losing energy fast AND to make it worst Inuyasha did
ANOTHER iron reever to make the first one stronger. The attack
was about to break through the shield but something happened that
probably saved Kagome's life.
"Spirit Gun!!!!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The Spirit Detectives were racing toward the large amount of
energy they had sensed. Yusuke was still thinking about what
Koenma said about Kagome.
'She's the reincarnation of a powerful priestess. That energy it's
close to where Kagome lives. She could be in danger.' Yusuke
said picking up his pace. The energy was moving fast and seemed
to be frantic. The chase lead them to him and Kagome's meeting
place. The sight that met him astounded and angered him. A boy
with long silver hair and doggy ears was attacking HIS Kagome
while she put up a barrier that seemed to breaking.
Without even thinking Yusuke fired one of his largest spirit gun
at the demon. It hit him dead on and threw him away from
Kagome. But unfortunately the attack didn't dissipate and Kagome
was still desperately trying to block it.
Then to EVERYBODY'S surprise Hiei, using his great speed pulled
Kagome out of the path of the powerful attack. The Iron Reever
kept going into that direction to places unknown.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
'Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my GOD.' Was all Kagome thought as she
saw Inuyasha being thrown to the side. But luck just WASN'T on
her side today since the attack was still there.
'I can't believe he's attacking me. I never knew she meant THIS
more to him than me.'
It all happened so fast that Kagome didn't know what was going
on. One minute she was blocking the attack, the next she was
several feet away from the attack watching in horror as it went
astray. Kagome could barely breath and her body was weak from
using up so much energy. Kagome didn't even realize the person
that still held her in there arms. Only one thought came to
Kagome's mind as she watched the Iron Reever.
"I must be dead." Kagome muttered so low that Hiei could barely
hear it.
"Not quite." Hiei said from behind her. It was then Kagome
realized someone was holding her. And that someone was a demon.
Her body still in Anti-Demon mode sent energy knocking Hiei away.
"Kagome!" Turning around quickly Kagome saw Yusuke, and two other
boys walking towards her.
"Kagome are you alright." Something registered in Kagome's mind.
"Where's Inuyasha." Kagome said looking around.
"You mean the demon that was attacking you he's over the- wait
where did he go?" the orange haired boy said. Kagome looked around
and to her horror Inuyasha was gone.
"Damn." Kagome muttered as she fell into unconsciousness. The strain
of the day finally taking its toll.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"uhhh." Kagome groaned as she woke up. 'Where am I?' She noticed
the bright lights and white bed that she was in and it seemed
that she was in a hospital. Getting up she noticed she wasn't
wearing her school uniform but instead a hospital gown. Looking
across the room she saw a drawer.
Getting up and moving towards it hoping her clothes were in there
he opened the first shelve and saw a priestess kimono. It looked
exactly like the one Kikyou wears, it even came with the hair
ties.
Kagome nearly growled. She would of kept what she had on if it
wasn't for the way her back was so exposed. Reluctantly putting
on the outfit Kagome looked around the 'hospital' for an exit.
Soon Kagome realized this wasn't just any hospital.
. . .
"Koenma that girl is very powerful are you sure its a good
idea in leaving her in a room surrounded by demons." Kurama asked
the toddler who was currently sucking frantically on his
pacifier.
Kurama had seen what she did to Hiei. Even though the stubborn
apparition wouldn't admit it the attack hurt him more than he
lead on. It seemed Yusuke had just been bent on killing the
demon that attacked her but overall everyone wanted to know..What
the heck was going on!?! As Kuwabara simply put it.
"Don't worry Kurama I doubt she's one that would go on a
killing rampage."
Looking at the jewel that seemed to be get brighter as the girl
made her way to the room Koenma wished he could touch it. It
seemed the jewel wouldn't let anyone touch at this moment. And if
he was right that same jewel was the legendary Shikon No
Tama...well at least � of the Shikon No Tama.
Botan sat staring at the glowing jewel. 'So that's the jewel
could cause so much happiness but yet so much pain.'
"Guys? WHAT'S WITH THE GLOWING JEWEL?!?!?" Kuwabara said bringing
everyone's attention to the jewel that also began to float
towards the door. Everyone was on there guard like they expected
the jewel to attack the them but all of a sudden there was a
knock at the and the jewel floated in front of the door as if
waiting for it to open.
"Come in." Koenma said knowing who was at the door. When the door
opened Kagome stood there coming face to face with the part of
the jewel she owned. Putting out her hand the jewel landed in
the palm of her hand and immediately glowed a soft white then
went back to it's original state.
Looking up Kagome came face to face with a lot of shocked faces
and one familiar face. Kagome looked at everyone and came to a
conclusion.
"I guess I have a lot of explaining to do."
