The Pure Miko
Chapter 11
Kagome held Youko and Sesshomaru as hard as she could. Her tears had long since started to slow. Only blotched eyes and red cheeks were the signs of their earlier presence.
“Kagome, what happened?” Sesshomaru asked of her.
“The demon wants to take over all four worlds, the Human world, the Demon world, the Spirit world, and the Nether world*. And, apparently, he can't do it without me.”
“Why?”
“I don't know, but he says that he and I could take over the four worlds.”
Inuyasha may know how to read minds, but he knew Kagome well enough to know that she was holding something back.
“What else does he want, Kagome?” Inuyasha asked softly.
She shook her head. She buried her face in Youko's chest to hide from Inuyasha's scrutiny. Kagome knew that Inuyasha was the most likely to figure out that something was wrong. Sesshomaru and Youko wouldn't say anything unless she had to tell them something or when they had to ask, but Inuyasha was a completely different story. He knew her well enough to know when she had something on her mind, and he didn't have any trouble demanding something of her.
“Kagome, he is right. What aren't you telling us?” Shippo asked.
Kagome shook her head vigorously.
“What else does he want, Kagome.”
“He…He…”
“He wants you doesn't he?” Sagero asked.
She looked up at him when he said this bit of information. She saw the knowledge and understanding in his eyes. She nodded in acceptance.
Hiei, Youko, and Sesshomaru both growled immediately once she confirmed what Sagero asked.
Kagome whimpered and clung to her two suitors.
“Did you get the information that I asked for, Inuyasha.”
“No, I haven't sent someone to go look into it yet.”
“Can you please get Kimiko to look it up? She gets all of her information to me within twelve hours.”
“Yeah, sure. Whatever you say.” Inuyasha said.
“Okay. I have to go.” Kagome let go of her two suitors and stood up. She looked down at her shirt. The shirt that was normally dark blue, the color of her eyes, was now partially covered in her dried blood.
“I need a shower.” Kagome started to make her way to the elevators, but she had seven men standing in her way.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
“You aren't going anywhere. You have to rest up.”
“This is ridiculous! I can take care of myself you know, and besides I'm only going downstairs to clean up. Now move. You are in my way of a shower and clean clothes. So unless you want to be on the floor with a slitting headache then I suggest you get out of my way.”
All of the Taisho employers and employees moved out of her way immediately. She walked around the remaining demons standing in her way. She moved to the elevators and pushed the down button.
“Ugh, this thing takes to long!” Kagome walked and left down the stairs.
“How can you just let her go? She needs to stay here! She can't leave unprotected.”
“Ha, you can try to stop her. And when she knocks you on your ass let me know. I'll be there to direct you to the nearest bottle of pain reliever. `Cause you're going to need it!” A man said as he walked into the room.
“What is it, Haruka?” Sagero asked.
“Well, Kagome ran past me downstairs. She didn't look so good.”
“She is fine. She just needs to have some space for a while.”
“What happened to cause Kagome that much damage?”
“We have a new demon to kill. Tell Kimiko to get right on it.” Inuyasha told him.
“Right away, Lord Inuyasha.” He left to go down the stairs to carry out his orders.
“Well, I am going to go downstairs to talk to Kagome about this new demon. She probably noticed some thing about him. Are the rest of you going to come?” Shippo asked.
All of the demons followed him to the elevator.
“I don't get it.” Yusuke said as they made their way to the first floor.
“What do you not understand?” Sesshomaru asked.
“If you are such powerful demons as you claim to be then how did you get past the barrier?”
“Where do you think that Raizen got the devices to lower his own subjects power to enter through the barrier?” Shippo asked.
“You guys created that? How?” Kuwabara asked in awe.
“We have been around for a very long time. We have a lot of things.”
The Spirit detectives nodded in understanding. All of them, including Hiei, wanted desperately to ask as to what they had made, but none of them were willing to ask with the look that Sesshomaru was sending their way.
They arrived at the bottom floor a few moments later. The demons that worked at Taisho Enterprises took them to what appeared to be the conference room.
“What you are about to see is not to be revealed to anyone. If you tell anyone, including the Prince, then I will make your death very painful.”
Kuwabara audibly gulped.
And then Lord Sesshomaru showed them where they operated from. Once they walked into the underground base they stood in awe.
“Ah!” Kagome signed out in pleasure. The hot scolding water running down her body was like heaven to her senses. She had long ago washed her hair and body. She was simply enjoying her time now. The Pure Miko knew that once she walked out of this shower room that she was going to have to deal with two possessive demons pining for her affections, a group of Spirit detectives, Spirit world, and a crazed demon that wanted to take over the world with her as his new queen. After ten more minutes of getting some kinks out of her shoulders, Kagome finally resigned herself to her fate.
“Fine, if I have too.” Kagome said out loud as if she was answering her own question.
She stepped out of the shower stall and dried herself off. She put on a pair of tight blue jeans and a slim purple shirt. She then left the room with the knowledge that things had just gotten very complicated for her.
She appeared out of the washroom and observed the activity that was around her. And it was busy! Demons and an occasional demon ran around as if they just had their head cut off. Okay, so they didn't run like that. They were actually running around screaming on phones or rushing to desks to put in some paper work that they had to put in the computer system. You would think that this was a newspaper company like the Daily Planet in some show like Superman, but it wasn't. This was an undercover operation that was calling in all the shots to locate a demon that was trying to conquer the entire world.
To Kagome, however, this was not just over a simple demon that wanted to take over the world. She had several of those that she had dispatched to the underworld. No, this was a matter of her life on the line. And yes, she was use to putting her life on the line on a daily-bases. That came with the job, but this was something that she knew was not going to be a simple kill and walk away. And not that she would ever tell anyone this, but she had to admit that she was really scared about this new demon. I mean, he had overpowered her! He had pinned her so that she couldn't move at all, and that scared her more than anything else in this world. Kagome hated to be helpless and not in control. She had that when she first fell in the well to only appear five hundred years in the past. She had hated it then and she still hated it now. But she wasn't helpless anymore. She had learned to protect herself. She would take on demons that even Inuyasha wouldn't take care of. But this demon could pin her down? Something was wrong and the Pure Miko knew it.
The Pure Miko shook herself from her thoughts so that she could concentrate on the here and the now. It would do her no good to freak out before the reports on this new enemy were in front of her. Then and only then would she freak out if she had to.
Now, where are those guys? Kagome thought. Well, only one way to find out. Besides this should let them know that I will not be pushed to the side because some psycho demon that wants to make me his queen is after me. Nope, this Miko will not hide.
The Miko of Legend walked forward like a fashion model on a runway attitude. She flashed her powers in a searching manner. They rushed all around her so that she could pinpoint Hiei's and Yusuke's demon energy. When she found it, she noticed that they were talking to Greg at the super computer. Yep, Greg was the best at what he did. He was a telekinetic demon from somewhere in San Francisco. He had moved here about seven years ago and has been working with Sesshomaru ever since he got off of the plane. He was a genius when it came to computers. He was a large demon in size, but she always thought that it was perfect for him because his brain was so large. He knew about every way to get past a computers system of anything. He was a great guy that would be the first on to go to if you needed some advice. And Kagome found that so weird because you wouldn't really go to a computer geek to get advice. Computer geeks were the type of person that could fix your computer or tell you a back way in to unlock a security code. That was the usual thing that you would expect from a computer geek. Heck, you can expect even less from a demon computer geek, but that was not the case with Greg. He was the best friend that anyone could ask for. Kagome often found herself talking to him the most out of all of the demons and humans in this base.
Greg was sensitive, caring, and understanding. He listened really well, had a great sense of humor, and gave great advice on a daily bases. To Kagome he was like an older brother that you couldn't help but love with all of your heart.
But hold on a minute! Greg was also not one to mess with if he didn't like you! He was a real softy when it comes to people that he likes, but if he didn't like you for some odd reason then it was in that person's best interest to stay out of the way. Greg would move things with his mind at will and Kagome would hate to see what he could do if he was forced to throw someone across the room. And then you can add the fact that he had a six pack for arm muscles and then you would rethink about getting on his bad side.
As Kagome approached the ever-growing group all of them looked up to watch her approach. What she didn't know was what she looked like when she walked up to them. Her eyes were blazing their radiant sapphire blue. Her hair was waving behind her, her chin was raised in defiance, and her powers were spiked. And although her clothes were ordinary and very around-the-house casual she seemed to be the most beautiful thing to all that were looking upon the most powerful miko in all existence. And if Kagome had been looking at the demons behind her she would have noticed that all but two had stopped and stared at her passing. They, however, started to bustle around again once they saw all of the glares sent their way by all three of the founders and owners.
“Hey, guys. What have you got for me, Greg?” she asked once she stopped next to Sesshomaru and Sagero.
“Well, I can't tell you much, Kagome.”
“What can you tell me about this new demon then?” Kagome persisted.
“Well, from my sources on the net the demon was just noticed when he spiked his energy to get your attention. Since then they have had sensors on him since. The weird thing is that he just disappeared once he finished his fight with you. But I can tell you that his power level spiked off of the chart when he tried to kill the detectives here.”
“Yeah, it had to be pretty powerful to knock Kagome out like that. You guys would have died from a blast like that.” Shippo nodded his head toward the Spirit detectives.
“What the hell do you mean by that?”
“What he means is that you could have died if that energy ball had hit you. He was aiming to kill. And it is our belief that Kagome was the only one there that could have survived that blast. It is that simple, Detective.”
“What? We could have taken that! I don't know how she didn't! She doesn't even have any power. She only beat me `cause she tricked me.”
Kagome's anger spiked.
“Urameshi…” Kuwabara warned.
“No, you have to be thinking the same thing! She doesn't need to be here. She should let the real men take care of this.”
“Detective, shut up.” Hiei warned. Youko growled in his agreement.
But oddly enough Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, Shippo, and Sagero were not doing anything to defend Kagome.
“I think that you have over stepped your bounds, Detective.” Kagome said coldly.
“No, I don't think that I have. You need to stop acting all tough!”
Kagome turned her head to look at Sesshomaru and she asked, “You didn't tell them did you?”
Sesshomaru shook his head. Kagome nodded in understanding.
She turned around and walked away.
“I am glad that you have—” he began, but he was thrown across the room and slammed into a desk.
Hiei snickered in glee. He had a feeling that Yusuke was going to be told off sooner or later. He knew that the Detective wouldn't be bruised too badly from a hit like that either.
Kagome turned around and looked at the fallen form of Yusuke. Her eyes were pure sapphires. They glowed so brightly that only blue was shown in the depths of her eyes.
“Do not speak of things that you do not understand, Detective. You would do well to remember not to underestimate me again.”
She turned around and started to walk away again. Yusuke started to stand up, but an invisible force forced him back down.
“I didn't say that you could get up.” Kagome cold voice rang out. It seemed to be full of pain.
“Damn! She is in a mood. I have never seen Lady Kagome like that!” Haruka said as he came up to the crumpled form of Yusuke Urameshi.
“Something is wrong with Kagome, Sesshomaru.”
“I believe that you are correct, little brother.”
“Yeah, I have never seen Lady Kagome that low on power.”
“What do you mean?” Kuwabara asked.
“Kagome normally could have sent him across the compound with the hit that she sent him. But he didn't.”
“It would be something to do with his demon blood. He is a S class demon.”
“No, that blast she sent would still sent him flying across the compound. Something is up with her.” Shippo replied.
“She is a very powerful miko to send him across the room like you say she could.”
“She ain't the Pure Miko for nothin' ya' know!” Inuyasha said smugly.
* Please see “Yu Yu Hakusho The Movie - Poltergeist Report”. This explains the fourth world mentioned. As a quick summary for this movie, when it comes to the four worlds, is that the world that is kind of parallel to the Human world is the Spirit world. Well, the same can be said for the Demon world. The Nether world is the world that is beside the Demon world… I hope this information helps explain the question of the fourth world.
NOTE: I am sorry for the short chapter. I haven't had much time to write. My mom is really sick and I have to take care of her during the day. I also have to take her to all of her doctor's appointments due to the fact that she can't drive right now. She is going to have surgery on July 3 unless we can get it sooner. So until then she is going to be a little out of it. Please forgive me for the late and short chapter, but my mother's health is more important at the moment. I am prayer for her would be appreciated. Thank you.
