Kagomes Home
Genkai was thinking something along those same lines. She was truly upset about what Fate had done to her 'granddaughter'. She felt sorry for her. She really knew that she shouldn't because she had dealt with it all and did not just walk away from her responsibility like most would have done if they were in her place. But he also did feel some pity towards Hiei. Not that she was going soft on them or anything but she did feel sorry for him; he had finally found the one person that touched his heart and spirit. He had found the one person that could get him to feel happiness, joy, and got him to open up even if it was just a little.
She thought and pondered for a solution the problem with her soul. Then she spotted Momo out of the corner of her eye. She turned to Momo then Hiei. She wanted an answer as to what that was but Hiei just looked away and 'hn'd'. The only reason Genkai got an answer was because Momo got the hint. She jumped on her shoulder and began to speak her explanation.
"My name is Momo, I was sent by Kioriko; Midorikos mother to be her guardian after Kioriko finished training her."
Genkai nodded
"Do you have any idea as to what's wrong with Kagome?"
Momo nodded
"All I know is that her soul is missing; too much actually because her body can't hold on to it. That's why it'sleaving her body; but it can hold on a little; which is why it's not leaving all at once. But that barrier you put up will keep her alive even when it leaves her completely. The energy it will give of within the barrier will cling or more or less; radiate on her and keep her alive."
Genkai nodded. Hiei was still now sitting next to Kagome like he was before he left to get Genkai.
hIEI'S pOV
I swear when I find who is responsible for this I'll make sure they rot in the 7th layer of Hell and curse their grave. How could anybody do this? But then again I can't talk. I would have before I met her. But still...that doesn't make this situation any better. But I have to focus, Kagome needs me.
I wish that the hag and the feline would stop their yapping' and START TO HELP ME! I need to calm down or else I'll never get a chance to save her. Now to think of solutions. I could talk to Koenma. But I'm tired of going to him. I can't go to him; I have to do this on my own. But what can I do. I could go to the Makai library. Maybe I can find another witch, one that's capable. Or some sort of spell. Now that it's safer for me to place one on her.
She looks so peaceful laying there. I wonder how she feels inside. She must be in some kind of mental shock.

In Kagome's Mind
How can you see into My eyes
Like open doors
Darkness
Leading you down into my core
WhereI become so numb
That's all she could see
Without a soul
My spirits sleeping somewhere cold
It surrounded her
Until you find it there and lead...
...it...back...home
She could not escape its gentle yet deadly, frightening embrace
Wake me up
Wake me up inside!
All she could do was sit there. She hugged her knees and put her forehead in the valley between her knees. You could hear her
sobbing.
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside!
She was lost and no one was there to save her. Then she hears a voice call out to her.
Save me!
Call my nameand save me from the dark!
“Youmust stay strong...it will all be well soon and you will be happy once more...Trust me"
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run!
"Who are you?"replied Kagome
I can't wake up
Before I come undone!
"I am the other you"
Save me!
Save me from the nothing I've become
"The other me?"
Frozen inside, without your touch, without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead
"Yes...you are ademon and your demon side...me...was put into dormancyfor your safety."
All this time I can't believeI couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you where there in front of me
"Oh...but why?"
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
"Because of something that could kill you..."
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here, there must be something more
"But-"
Bring Me To Life!
"Don't worry. I'll be back, I can now."
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
"Do you have a name?"
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
"No but you can just call me...Mua"
Save Me
Call my name and save me from the dark
"Mua?"
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
"Yes...But please if you don't stay strong you wont be able to live through this and you wont find true happiness.
I can't wake up
Before I come undone
You life so far has been one big test that has been testing you to see if you where the chosen one.
Save me
Save me from the nothing I've become
The guardian,
Bring Me To Life!
Only once you earn happiness can you receiveit"
Then the voice disappeared.
Kagomes Home
The barrier around Kagome was now transparent and shrinking to be a mil. above her skin. She started to blink and her eyes where now their usual brown. She sat up and slouched forward and her head hung while her elbows where resting on her legs. She was sweating. Then she stood up and ran out of the house. She ran down the steps and was soon out of sight because she had turned the corner. Hiei was gone in a flash of black. Genkai was after her as well. In a flash of red and pink she was gone also. She had to hurry up and catch up with her because since her soul was leaving her body then her aura and energy would prove to be difficult to track.
They followed Kagome for a half an hour.
Somewhere in a forest
She ended up deep in the thick of some forest that was on the outskirts of the town. She was standing in a clearing. Then a flying white eel came and rammed straight into Kagome. But because of the barrier that Genkai had put up, was jolted away. Then a woman stepped out from the brush and walked up to Kagome. She looked identical to her. Only she wore old Miko garbs.
"Isee there is a barrier around you. Give me what rightfully belongs to me." said the woman who had cold eyes and a harsh expression.
"I wont Kikyo, yes, I'msorry about what happened. But it is mine now and you aren't even suppose to be alive. This is your fault. If you would have let go of yourfreaking grudge you would be in peace. We defeated Naraku. You would have been avenged!"
"Shut up...you know nothing! You have had a very happy life. Loved by all,you never had something so horrible happen to you so don't speak." exclaimed Kikyo
Kagome put all of her weight on one leg and put her wrist on her hip and had an expression that said..."you got to be kidding me" and at the same time "you have no idea". Then she leaned forward to her, they were about 10 ft. parallel to each other.
"Listen, you don't know me. But then again how could you. You where always trying to kill me. And for your information. I wasn't exactly loved be everyone. I was freaking hunted everyday since I was born! Youwant toknow a secret...."
Then she continued in a whisper and leaned in so she was only about 3 inches away from Kikyo. Of course Kikyo was scowling at her
"...I'm a demon. Do you know what that makes me?"
Kikyo nodded and was utterly shocked. But she never let her mask falter.
"Yes...I am aware of what that makes you...which is another reason you deserve to die."
"Listen Kikyo..you had your life, I agree it wasn't fair. But no one said life was fair. SO GET OVER IT AND GIVE MEMYSOUL!"
Kikyo started laughing “Theonly way that you're getting your soul back is if you kill me. Which, as I have proven, you can't do."
She started to laugh again.
Kagome merely shook her head and stood up straight. She closed her eyes and opened her palms. Then her energy started to flare a little. Then in her hands her scythes appeared. With one in each hand. She looked back up at Kikyo who was too distracted in her musings to notice the weapons in her hands.
Kagome the scythes next to her head and then pulled back her wrist and in one swift moment she flicked it and it went flying towards the tainted miko. By the time Kikyo saw the weapon flying towards her it was to late and the next thing she knew it was deep in her right shoulder and she shuddered and instinctively moved her left hand to the weapon and pulled it out. Now she was fashioning an angry look filled with pain.
"You little cheap copy. How dare you!"
“Paybacksa bitch isn't she...Well guess what, there is such a thing as Karma. You do something now but you'llpay for it later. Well let me introduce myself...I'mlater." Kagome said with a smirk.
Kikyo just got even madder. She called her soul catchers to take her away. When she was increasing altitude...
"NO YOU DON'T YOU LITTLE DEAD PIECE A CLAY!"
She then ran and jumped on a tree and then to a higher one and then off the top of one of the tallest. While in the air she grabbed to her ankle and pulled her down. Next thing she knew Kikyo was plummeting to the ground. And if the fall didn't kill her then Kagome soon would.
Kagome landed with grace and softly just after Kikyo made a small crater that, unfortunately -for Kikyo anyways- she climbed out and was still alive. Now Kagome had to kill her.
Usually she would hate to do this but ever since those spells were taken and her demon side came back; which she had met in her mind, She now sort of in a sadistic way enjoyed it but only an iota of an amount did she enjoy. But this did mean she would get to kill Kikyo. And boy did she hate her. She would take pleasure in this.
Kikyo stood there looking at her and Kagome walked over to her and was about an inch away from her. She then asked her if she wanted to go back quickly or painfully. Kikyo merely scoweld.
"What makes you think you'llbeat me!?"
Kagome stood there and started to, honestly laugh at her.
“Welllet me think. I plowed you into the ground. Madeyour right arm completely useless," she said which pointed out the fact that she was still clutching her shoulder,“and your standing in a crater that is about 50 ft. in diameter. Hm....what makes me think I'm goingto beat you?"
Kagome started tapping her chin with her index finger; and had her lower lip over her upper and looked as if she was really thinking about this.
Kikyo "growled" at her. Kikyo looked her in the eye." If you couldn't before, what makes you think you can now?"
"That'syour problem Kikyo. You live in the past. Thats why your so miserable. If you would have let go you wouldn't be like this. And if you keep taking assumptions as to me like I'm the old Kagome then that will be your demise."
Kikyo had her head at an angle towards the ground and had a thoughtful look. Then she realized that her words where true. And that she has no one to blame but herself. So she did the only she could...she resisted. She was not going to go out like a fool without a fight.
Kikyo had healed her shoulder. Now she lunged at Kagome who just had a smirk on her face as Kikyo collided with her. She was definitely going to enjoy this. She closed her eyes and her nails turned into claws. Her ears where pointed; her looked a deadly silvery blue. At this point Kikyo did not care what she was. She just needed to prove herself to her -in her eyes- cheap imitation copy.
When they where on the floor from Kikyos force; Kagome kicked her off and she landed clear across the clearing. Kagome stood up and had a smirk on her face.
"I told you that you can't beat me. I'mto powerful for you to handle. Maybe if you where still alive and had enough training. But now that you'redead you can't. You are to blinded by your hatred and selfish goals to see what'sin front of your eyes. You have to let go...Now I'll give you one more chance to give me my soul and I'll make your death quick and painless. Do you accept?"
But of course Kikyo was such a fool and to much of a selfish miko to see that she honestly did not have any chance in this fight. But Kagome was getting bored and that was getting on her last nerve.
"Fine Kikyo. But don't say that I didn't give you a chance."
Kagome lunched at Kikyo and just as she was about to make contact she disappeared. Kikyo had a very confused face. But Kagome was right behind her. She put her mouth up to Kikyos ear.
“Boo…”
Kikyo could have crapped herself but she didn't. But just as Kagome spoke, she lunged her hand through her back to the other side. Hiei and Genkai where in the trees watching the fighting. But when Kagome drove her arm through Kikyos chest Hiei plastered a big smirk on his face
'That's more like it'
Genkai though was just shaking her head.
`Somepeople are just so stubborn, to blind to see when they lost'
Kagome still wore a smirk. She retracted her arm and Kikyo fell dead to the ground. Then her soul catchers came to get her but in mid air they got all prune and looked like they got vacuumed. They turned brown and shriveled up and died; they never in made it 5 ft. near her.
She then stood and turned towards the woods. More specifically the trees where Genkai and Hiei where hiding in. She opened her mouth to call them out and fight but then her soul; glowing a serene blue, plowd right into her back. She started to glow then when the glow subsided she collapsed. Hiei caught her before she hit the ground.
He looked up at Genkai, and he was off. Genkai knew that he would take care of her and that right now what she needed most was him.
Hiei ran through the forest and after about 20 minutes he was in the thick of Makai. He started towards the clearing. Once he reached it he started to go west towards the remains of Kagome's house. Her old house. You could still see the foundation and the depression in the ground which showed where the house once stood.
He took her and laid her in the center and watched her sleep to make sure nothing disturbed her sleep. She needed her rest and he knew this fact very well. But now he admired her even more. She had showed him that she can pretty much handle anything the world throws at her. And so far the world has not been to kind to her.
Hiei fell into a very light sleep. He joined Kagome in the least expectant place. There he would meet someone that would have even more bad news. When Hiei opened his eyes he felt different. He looked at Kagome and she was no longer who she was now.......she was a-then panic struck him. He looked down at himself and saw that he was no longer who he had grown to be but...a....a............
What'sso differentabout Hiei and Kagome?
