Crackle!
Thud.
She jolted up on her bed - a panicked look on her face - her blue eyes wide as she looked out her window. Sliding out of her bed, she walked over to the said window. There was a flash of lightening, lighting up the whole shrine grounds. A shiver ran down her spine.
Her eyes suddenly darted over to the small woods that connected to the shrine property. "...Youkai..." Her heart skipped a beat. That aura.... She knew that aura, but...
Grabbing a katana, she opened her window, and was instantly pelted by cold raindrops. Jumping out her window, she rushed off towards the woods. Her heart raced as she ran. That aura... It was just like his, but... It couldn't have been! Skidding to a halt, her breath hitched in her throat.
His laughter... Was he... Mocking her? "Ku ku ku.... My, my, my... What a pleasure to see you again, my little miko."
Her eyes widened.
"N-…" She stopped - her eyes wide with fear. "Naraku?!" Her voice was weak and helpless.
She could feel him grinning - she could feel his eyes on her, although it was pitch black.
"My, I am much honored that you remember me after all these years. It's been what, 500 years? How is it that a human such as you have survived all this time, hmm?"
Kagome sneered, "That isn't any of your business!" She spat at him. "What do you want here? Better yet, how in the hell did you survive?! I thought I-"
"Killed me? Ku ku ku. My dear miko you did." He watched as the girl in front of him shivered in disgust. "Disgusted of me, dear?" He cackled once more.
"Who wouldn't be disgusted of you?" Kagome smirked when he growled out in protest. "Aww… Did I hurt the Big Bad Naraku's feelings?" Her voice was taunting and mocking.
Her eyes widened a great deal once his piercing red eyes quickly neared her. The pain of something sharp scraping her hip made her draw back quickly, and her hands reach out at the wound. A sticky substance quickly covered her fingers.
Grabbing her katana, she growled. "Bastard!" Her voice was deep and sneering. As he quickly advanced on her once more, she prepared herself. Blocking his attack with her katana, she growled when he cackled once more.
"So, where's the hanyou? Shouldn't he still be alive here somewhere?" His crimson eyes glinted with something she knew all to well.
"Yaro! He chose Kikyou. Tch." She pushed him back with her blade. "I thought you, the all-knowing Naraku, would know something like that." Her eyes narrowed.
"Well, well. See all you were to him was a cheap knock off, ne?" He smirked as they exchanged parries of their weapons.
Kagome's eyes widened. "NO! That's not true!!" She pushed off with her left foot, sending her to the right, dodging his attack. "Not true at all! He was like a brother! He said I was just like the sister he never had!"
"Oh, aren't you in denial?" He quickly attacked once more, thrusting his own katana straight into her stomach.
Kagome gasped out in shock and pain. Wincing, she coughed.
"Aww, did I hurt the little miko?" Smirking, he twisted the blade before taking it out.
Letting out a low, "Itai," She kneeled over, her hands covering her wounded stomach.
Naraku smirked. "Let your last moments be in pain." He raised his katana in the air, ready to make his final blow.
"Like hell." Twisting her wrists, she shoved her katana into his chest, where his heart would have been, and let her miko ki flow through the weapon. Naraku let out a scream as she purified his body into a pile of dust. After that, a wooden doll dropped to the ground. "Still using dolls, hmm?" Coughing, she spit out blood. "Shit" Her breathing became slightly harder as she stood.
The rain continued to pour down. Her blood dripped off her body and stained her night clothes. Walking forward, her vision became blurry as hot pain shot through her body from the hole in her stomach. Gripping her shirt that clung to the wound, she squeezed her eyes shut for a moment.
Once she stepped out of the woods, she looked up. The pain shot through her body once more when she coughed - this time blood came out. Moaning, she fell forward, landing on the ground not-so softly. Rolling over, she placed both hands over her wound, and began to heal it. It didn't take her very long to run low on energy. The wound was still not fully healed.
Her breathing became shallower as she fell into the waiting arms of darkness.
-------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------
Souta sat up in his bed. Yawning, he stretched out before getting out of his bed. Hair a mess, he opened his door, rubbing his eyes. The crackling of the lightening reminded him that it was still raining. Walking to his sisters’ door, he opened it and peeked in to see if his sister was still in there.
Pushing the door all the way open, his eyes widened in fear. "Anata baka, Kagome?!" Seeing her window still open, Souta rushed down the stairs. "Shit!" Forgetting all about the others in the house, he rushed out the front door. "Kagome?!" Yelling her name, he spotted her on the ground.
"Damn it Kagome! I told you not to go outside tonight!" Seeing the torn parts in her night shirt and pants, and the shallow cuts on her cheeks, he gasped at the wound on her stomach. Cursing, he picked her up and carried her into the house - not to quietly either.
After placing her on the couch, he noticed the others that were staying here with them. "Idiots! Don't just stand there! Someone get me some medical supplies!" the two girls widened their eyes as they ran down the stairs.
"Hinata-chan, check her pulse - I'll look over her for any serious wounds." The pink haired kunoichi looked at Souta. "Do you know what happened to her?" She nodded once he shook her head. "Alright then..." Once they found the hole in her stomach, her green eyes widened. "Hinata-chan, take a look at this!"
As the other girl looked at the wound, she covered her mouth in a gasp. "S-s-somebody stabbed her in the stomach…" The white eyed girl looked back up to the only present male. "Are you sure you don't know?" Once he nodded she looked to Sakura. "Should we do a Medic-Jutsu?"
Sakura only started at the wound. "Yes, we should." Sakura looked to Hinata. "With a wound like this, I believe it would be for the best. Once the other girl nodded, the pink haired kunoichi quickly shifted through what looked like to Souta complicated hand movements, before the girl placed her hand on his sisters’ stomach, and the wound began to heal.
“What are you doing?" The indigo haired kunoichi looked to him. She then explained that Sakura was doing something called a Jutsu, more precise, a medical one, which healed wounds and even broken bones.
With this information, Souta nodded his head. "Oh…"
"T-there... I'm done. Hinata, do you think you can wrap her other wounds and use that ointment of yours on her wounds?" Sakura leaned forward a bit. "That took a lot of chakra..."
Hinata looked worriedly at her friend.
"Did you use an advanced one?" Seeing the other girl nod lightly, Hinata looked to the roll of medical bandages that Sasuke held out. "Thank you, Sasuke-san..." Taking them, she quickly stood. "Oh, my ointments!" Quickly pushing past Sasuke, she rushed up the stairs to get the ointments.
"I think I'm going to go back to bed..." Drained of her chakra supply, Sakura stood. "She should be fine. All she needs is sleep." Sakura looked down at the girl before walking up the stairs, passing Hinata.
Rushing back down, she retook her seat and looked at the blood. "Um... Souta-san, can you get a large bowl of clean warm water and a washcloth please? I need to clean her wounds."
Souta nodded and stood, walking into the kitchen.
"N.....Nar...Naraku..." Kagome's face scrunched up in what looked to be pain, before her eyes snapped open and she sat up. "Yamero!" Breathing heavily, Kagome looked at Hinata, then to Sasuke. "Wha.... what's going on here...?" Her eyes widening she looked around. "S-Souta!"
With her brother returning in a rush he looked to his sister. "Kagome! What happened?" He could see the fear in his sisters’ eyes.
"Naraku...." Kagome shook and paused for a moment then looked down. "He's...... Still alive...." Reaching for where her wound should have been she gasps. "W-what? Who healed me?" Kagome looked at Hinata and Sasuke.
"Ano..." Hinata began out with. "Sakura-Chan healed you with a Medic-Jutsu..." The shy girl bit her bottom lip.
Kagome blinked a few times. "She did what?" After Hinata explained to Kagome, she told Kagome that she wanted to look at her minor wounds, to which Kagome refused to let her do. "I've had much worse then this! Hell, you've see that for a fact! These are nothing - by morning they'll be gone." Nodding, Kagome then felt lightly dizzy.
As darkness took over her vision, she could feel her body falling forward, away from the back of the couch. Just as she thought she was going to hit the floor, she could feel strong arms wrap around her, keeping her from falling. Voices could be heard, but she couldn't understand what was being said. Though, she did catch someone's deep voice saying that they would put her to bed. After that, she fell into complete darkness.
-------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------
Wakin g up with the sun in her eyes, Kagome moaned lightly. Moving her body to sit up, she yawned. Today, no matter how much her body protested, she was going back to the Sengoku Jidai. Besides, everyone there needed to know that Naraku was still alive.
Getting out of bed, she took a few wobbly steps. After making it to her closet, she opened the door and looked inside. Taking out a dark navy blue fighting kimono with a red sash, she tied the sash around her waist so that she could carry her swords.
Looking around, she noticed that her katana wasn't there. Blinking, she figured she had left it somewhere in the woods, and it was most likely in Naraku’s hands. Sighing, she knew that her other weapons were in the well house, so she had no problem when sneaking out with them, and maybe getting caught.
Taking out a pen and a piece of paper, she quickly scribbled a note. Looking to the clock, it read 4:36 am. Good, Souta would still be asleep, and hopefully, so would everyone else. Slipping out of her room, she stealthily walked to Souta's door and slid the note under it so that he would find it later.
Quickly jumping down half the steps, she ran. Kagome quietly opened and shut the door without a single noise. With a grin on her lips and her eyes spinning with happiness, Kagome sprinted to the well house. Sliding the wooden doors open, she quickly shut them behind her. She picked up the Hiraikotsu, her bow and arrows, the sword that was given to her by Sesshoumaru, (which she still hadn't named) and her matching daggers to the sword.
Slamming her hands down onto the well's side, she mumbled under her breath. Her aura surrounded her body and the well. With the well unsealed once more, the time-traveler once more traveled through the gates of time. With the blue light surrounding her, Kagome closed her eyes, smiling the whole way, until her feet made contact with the ground.
Looking up to the sky she took a deep breath of the fresh air that hadn't been touched by humans. Climbing out of the well, Kagome took off, running towards the village, laughing. Her eyes were bright and happy. Running into the sleeping village, she stopped at the hut that everyone stayed in. Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door.
Once she opened the door, she immediately woke the youkai, and hanyou in the room. The young kits’ eyes widened with tears. "Kagome-kaasan? I-is that you?" Nodding her head, Kagome smiled as Shippou launched himself into her stomach. She winced. Even though the wound was healed, it was bruised pretty badly.
"Feh. What brings you back here?" Looking at the silver-haired hanyou, she smiled kindly at him, and then frowned.
"Because there is something wrong that shouldn't be happening in my time." Her eyes hardened. "I'll wait until Sango and Miroku wake up before saying anything though."
Rolling his eyes, Inuyasha snorted. "Right. So why are you here this early in the morning anyway?" Inuyasha turned his eyes once more to the girl from the future.
"Oh, well you see, my mom's friend sent six teens my age to live with us for a whole year, to see what life is like outside of what they do." Kagome frowned when Shippou looked up at her.
"Okka-san why do you smell like.... Naraku and blood?" Shippou looked at Inuyasha for a moment before glancing back at his adoptive mother.
"Well... That's a reason I came back here, but I’m not explaining anything until everyone is awake." Kagome closed her eyes and sighed, sitting down with her legs folded under her.
"Kagome-sama?" The voice of a male caused her to open her eyes.
"Yes, Miroku?" She blinked a few times as the male studied her. "It's me, no tricks or anything, I promise." She smiled as she watched him nudge awake the sleeping Sango that lay beside him.
"K-Kagome-chan!"
Kagome blinked a few times and regained her balance.
"I thought you said you weren't coming back because you weren't needed!"
Kagome flushed. "Well, truth be told, life is boring without you guys around." Laughing for a moment, she quieted down and got serious. "But the main reason I am here is because there's trouble in my time. Naraku...he's alive. I'm unsure how, but he is."
She looked at the shocked faces of her friends - and Kikyou's, who had sometime ago woken up.
"But how?! We killed him!! We - well you - have the whole Shikon no Tama! How can this be?" Sango's eyes were wide, and her hands were clenched tightly. "Are you sure this was Naraku?"
Kagome only nodded. "Very sure. I had a run-in with him last night. I don't have the stomach wound anymore, since I and someone else healed it, but I do have the gash on my hip... Besides, ask Shippou and Inuyasha - they will tell you I smell like the bastard."
Both Inuyasha and Shippou nodded their head. "She really did run into him." As much as they hated to admit it, it was true, and there was no denying it.
"So, what are we going to do about it? The only one that we know of that can go through the well is Inuyasha." Kagome nodded at Miroku’s statement.
"I know, but I don't think it'd be wise for you guys to go to my time. You guys wouldn’t know what to do." As much as she hated to admit it, she was right, and she knew it.

Anata baka?: Are you stupid?
