~LAST TIME~
“Inuyasha” Sesshomaru grated the word out as if saying it might make all three worlds go up in flames…
Hiei stared over at him.. “Hn” he crossed his arms.. he didn't like to admit it but what had happened tonight had happened fast.. to fast.. for even him to stop.. and that left him with the feeling of fear for the first time in his life…
“Bring me Inuyasha's soul from hell” Sesshomaru seethed as he left the room..
*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~*
A dark figure smiled at a silver haired hanyou.. his long claws pushed further into the soft flesh of the girls neck his huge claws happened to be around..
“ Our little game starts now Inuyasha” Orange eyes stared down into brown.. “ make sure Rekai finds you and questions you as to why the Miko spilled your name as he blood fell….. or your own Miko will perish… even Enma himself couldn't save her from my wrath”
Inuyasha stared up at him.. his golden eyes broken.. “ yes… Lord Si….”
The dark figure smirked as the woman in his grasp wimpered..
“let it begin”
*~~~~~~~****~~~~~~~~*
Ch9: More then a prophecy..
Koenma stared up at the King of Makai… “ but my Lord.. um.. how do we do that?? If you remember .. he's in the bottom layer of hell… no one ever goes down there”
Everyone in the room turned to looked between the Demi-god and the king of Makai…
Koenma flinched when Sesshomaru moved closer to him… his golden eyes bleeding red… “You will bring him to me” he hissed.. his tone leaving no room for question..
Koenma stared.. then let his head sink down.. in a show of defeat… “ yes my lord… um… Boton!!” he yelled..
Boton stepped forward a bit nervous.. “ me?? Why me?”
Koenma watched her.. her small hands held on tightly to her oar.. he sighed again… this was going to be a long … long.. long day… and for the first time in his many millennia's of life.. he wished he could die. Then at least this problem wouldn't be.. his problem anymore..
*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*
Kagome watched a dark figure move his hands around a creamy neck… the once pale skin.. now shimmered with small specks of red..
Blood…
Her insides twisted.. something wasn't right..
“Kagome”
She watched as the scene's around her changed… she now sat in complete darkness…
“Kagome”
The voice repeated… this time a bit more stern…
Kagome lifted her head to stare as a bright light started to form in the middle of the pitch blackness that surrounded her..
“who's there?” she questioned… her chest ached… her legs felt sore.. something was wrong…
“Don't fret my child… its only I” Kagome stared in wonder as Midoriko appeared in front of her… “ your only dreaming Kagome.. don worry.. your safe for the moment.. so just listen ..” she smiled down at the young woman.. offering her hand to help her up..
Kagome gladly took her hand as she got to her feet… this all felt weird.. “ so.. this is all in my head?”
Midoriko shook her head “yes.. this is all in your head” she laughed softly.. the sound coming out much to sweet in such a dark place.
“Kagome”
Kagome's attention snapped back up onto the ancient priestess.. “ im sorry.. I was just thinking”
Midoriko smiled at her ina very motherly like way.. “ that's alright Kagome” she laughed once more… then she turned her clear blue eyes to her.. Kagome shivered…
her eyes are just like mine?-
Midoriko sighed.. “Kagome.. im worn out… the battle inside the jewel has not stopped.. will not stop” she raised her hand to her temple.. rubbing it softly in circles.. “ but I must tell you something.. its very important” she looked up into her eyes.
Kagome's breathing hitched when the Jewel came floating up into her view.. glowing a brilliant pink…
Midoriko held out one of her delicate hands and the small orb flew into her grasp… raising her other hand above it her face showed determination as it started to spin…
Kagome gasped as images started to run through her head.. of her.. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kouga and everyone else… everyone but Inuyasha and Kikyo..
“what is all this Midoriko?” she asked as tears poured down her face…
“It was only the beginning… those who you see… you can trust..”
An image of Hiei flashed in her mind.. along with the rest of the Spirit Detectives..
“But.. I don't see everyone… from my past.. “ more images of Keiko and others ran on still in her brain..
“ be wary of those you cant see… for they will only bring about pain and your demise”
Kagome stared.. -Inuyasha.. why cant I see you?!?!?-
Midoriko looked up from the spinning jewel in her hands.. “ there was a prophecy back when I was alive.. I didn't pay much attention to it then.. but you should heed it now.. or you'll end up in more trouble then you can handle” she stated calmly..
Kagome tried to listen as her head started to spin… her visions of people she didn't even know started to vanish.. then they stopped all together..
“ what do you mean??? What is it?”
Midoriko smiled softly before her face was set into one of sadness…
“an evil.. born of un-ashamed love…not tamed.. not grown.. but left to wither and die…” the last word echoed around the darkness..
Die…Die…Die…Die…< /i>
“A heart must be given.. a soul must be shattered.. a person must betray…” her eyes filled with tears..
“ an evil will rise.. to block out the sun… and drain all worlds of life…”
Kagome listened as the priestess repeated these words as if they were second nature to her.. her heart began to fall…
“the forbidden child's heart must melt in fire and ice.. or all is lost on the shoulders of a small miko.. and her love”
Midoriko stopped talking…
“What does it mean.. it makes no sense” Kagome looked at her.. she needed answers..
“I started this.. it is my fault… when I became one with the Jewel.. my soul broke into a million pieces.. you are not what you think… you are not Kikyos reincarnation.. you are mine… but instead of being me reborn.. parts of my soul.. were altered.. and part of Kikyo's was given.. mixing with mine.. and giving you your own living .. feeling… soul”
Kagome stared at her… “ so.. im.. more like you?” she asked softly.. her eyes reflected Midoriko's..
“Yes”
“ so.. what does it all mean… out of love?”
Midoriko smiled weakly at her… “ out of your love and dejection for Inuyasha… a final evil was born.. and he has had the last 500 years to grow.. and become powerful… he came out of your pain.. and self loathing.. .. he will destroy the worlds… all of them.. and our only hope.. is you.. and the forbidden child”
Kagome thought for a moment.. Hiei's words coming back to her - when I was younger… they used to call me… the forbidden child-
Kagome gasped softly.. “Midoriko… has Sesshomaru heard of this?” she asked in haste..
Midoriko shook her head.. “ I have not a clue.. why do you ask?”
Kagome sighed.. “ guess not…”
“Kagome… you must find a field over flowing with the Melia flowers… do you know what they are?”
Kagome smiled.. thinking back about Rin .. (A/N remember that she doesn't remember seeing Sesshomaru or Rin.. so to her Rin is still little )
“Yes.. I do.. it's a small blue flower with the ability to ` make anything feel all better' “ she laughed as she mimicked the small girls words..
Midoriko smiled.. “ yes.. it does…the Melia flower only grows now in a hidden valley close to the Sea of Pertain in the Makia..” she held out her hand as the last of her words died off… “go there… and you'll find a cave… hidden… and protected by secrets.. mystery and the most powerful kind of magic… love” she smiled.. “ and there you will find help.. to stop this evil”
Kagome reached out her own hand to her.. and smiled softly when Midoriko dropped a small bag into her hands..
Kagome pulled the pouch to her chest then looked up at Midoriko “ can I open it?”
Midoriko smiled.. “ yes you may..”
Kagome looked it over.. it was a small silver pouch with dark blue embroidering on it.. it was.. beautiful..
She slowly pulled the strings and watched as it opened.. looking inside all she could see was white.. “ whats this?” she asked as she poured a bit of the powder out onto her hand..
“Blow it and watch”
Kagome looked at her for a second.. then brought her hand closer to her mouth she gently blew out and watched as the once white powder started to shimmer and change… to transparent.. then a soft pink… then a red..
“It just keeps changing..” she said as a soft lightly started to come off the powder..
“Use it in the cave.. and in the valley.. it will help you” she smiled… then she looked back over her should at a growing red light..
“What is that?? It wasn't here before??”
“That… Kagome.. is the end.. it draws near..” she turned back to her.. “ I have faith in you.. don't fail Kagome.. but I must leave you with one more thing..”
Kagome shut the pouch.. she watched the dust vanish…
“He knows”
*~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~*
Boton and Koenma stood at the gates to hell… “ you go in!”
Boton shook her head.. he long blue hair whipping about her shoulders.. “ na huh.. no way.. you go in!”
Koenma stared at her.. “ well im a god.. so you should go in”
Boton shrugged.. “ see all the more reason for you to go in… because sense you're a god.. you'll have a better chance of coming out” she grinned at him.
Koenma stared at her with his mouth hanging open.. “damn!”
*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*
Hiei looked down at Kagome..
While it was true all her wounds had been healed… that wasn't what was troubling him.. something.. someone had been fast enough and stealthy enough for him… HIM .. to not have been able to detect them..
He clenched his jaw..
A soft whining sound brought him from his thoughts.. he looked over to see the young Kit curled up with Kagome.. Tears shown in his emerald eyes..
Hiei walked over to the little kit.. “ why are you crying?”
Shippo turned a tear stained face up to him.. “ I want Okaa-san back.. .. and I' scared… if you weren't there with her.. she might have been killed.. like before.. she'll never be safe will she?”
Hiei stared down at him… then he stood up and walked away.. with out knowing it… the small child had just repeated his own thoughts and worries..
what if she is never safe?? What if.. I cant save her… what if she dies-
He turned his gaze to her once more.. and his heart ached… for some reason the thought of her dieing hurt him…
He'd have to put a stop to these human emotions right now!! O yes… he did.
*~~~~~~*~~~~~~*
Inuyasha slowly walked up to the huge rusted iron gates of hell… he looked up at them… this was it…
With a loud `craaaack' the old gates swung open.. and on the other side were two of the last people he thought he would see here…
“NOOOOOO.. I SAID YOU GO IN!” Boton screamed as she picked Koenma up and threw him head first into the gates…
“AHHHH!!” Koenma screamed as he flew straight into a certain Inu Hanyou standing there.. knocking both of them to the ground..
Boton gasped and covered her mouth with her hands.. “ o my.. im sorry!!” she yelled as she ran towards them.. “ wait.. your Inuyasha” she stated…
Koenma sat up.. and rubbed his head.. more lumps now in place.. “ thank you Boton.. for this” he pointed to the 3 massive lumps on his head..
“He… he he he” she covered her mouth and turned around in an attempt not to laugh.. “so-so-sorry!!” she busted out laughing at him…
Koenma glared at her… then turned up to Inuyasha who was now standing.. “ aahhh good we were just coming into get you” he chuckled
Boton pivoted on her heel.. “ what do you mean we??? Don't you mean you were just about to go in and get him?” she smiled as she held up her oar..
“YES… I mean me!!!” he screamed as he got up… rubbing his head again… lets just say.. only one lump was from her throwing him…
*~~~~~~~~**~~~~~~~~*
Kagome sat up in the small bed suddenly… sweat covering her pale skin… she stared at her hands. A small silver bag rested there… blue swirls running though it..
“Okaa-san!!!” Shippo jumped up into her arms.. and in a flash Hiei was next to her searching her over…
“there's a prophecy.. Hiei… I need to speak with you… alone” she whispered as everyone else came running into he room at that moment…
Rin ran in last.. “Kagome-sama!!!” she smiled.. “ Inuyasha is here now!!” she told everyone as Koenma opened the door…
Blue eyes met gold… her hand loosened and the small pouch slid to the floor…
“its been a while … wench”
