*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The sun slowly crept into the windows, waking the sleeping hanyou and his mate. Unaware that she was awake, InuYasha began to brush the strands of raven hair that blocked her face from his view. Kagome revealed her chocolate brown eyes in response.

"Gomen Kagome, I didn't meant to wake you."

"I was already awake so it's okay." She flashed him a smile, giving him a beautiful view of her new fangs.

"You're so beautiful." InuYasha muttered as he ran his hand through her hair. That's when he noticed the silver streaks.

Kagome blushed. She had been told she was kawaii and pretty before but no guy had ever told her she was beautiful. It made her heart melt. Then suddenly...

"Oww!" Kagome hissed and moved her hand to the top of her head where InuYasha had accidentally cut her. Her eyes grew wide with shock when she realized what he had cut:

Her new ears.

InuYasha couldn't help but grin. Now Kagome had those kawaii little inu ears she was so obsessed with. They were raven with silver tips. He had to touch them, just to see why she liked his so much.

"What are y-y-you doing I-I-I-InuYasha?" Kagome was having trouble keeping her cool as InuYasha gently began to massage her ears. (A/N: Mwhahahahahahaha! I told you I had plans to torture them, now it's Kagome's turn!)

"I wanted to know what they felt like and I wanted to see if doing this effected you like it does me." He flashed her a cocky smirk.

"W-w-well, i-i-it does." She was finding it hard to keep her breathing under control. "C-c-can you stop n-n-now?"

"Umm, let me think about it…" InuYasha grinned as he felt her shudder. "Nope!"

"Hey, you two! Shuddap or you're gonna wake up Sango!" Miroku hissed causing the young couple to become silent.

Sango hit Miroku lightly atop the head. "I'm already up. Don't worry about it."

"Fine." Miroku wrapped his arm around her and kissed her forehead.

After a few minutes of struggling, Kagome crawled out of InuYasha's arm. She grabbed her bag and headed to the back of the hut to get dressed. Sango followed suit and left Miroku and InuYasha to talk amongst themselves. Shippou was still sleeping.

"So, I couldn't help but notice you and Kagome. My, my InuYasha! Hoping to get som-"

Miroku was cut off by a very annoyed inu hanyou punching him in the head.

"Shuddap Miroku! Damn lech…" InuYasha returned to his seat to find Shippou laughing.

"What's so funny, runt?" InuYasha glared at the little kitsune.

"You hitting Uncle Miroku, Papa!" Shippou giggled and fell over backwards.

"But you see me get hit nearly everyday!" Miroku exclaimed, holding his aching head.

"It's still pretty funny to wake up to you getting beat up, Uncle Miroku!"

"Did we miss something?" Kagome stepped out of the room in an outfit no one had ever seen her in, except InuYasha. Traditional Miko robes.

"What the Hell! Why are you wearing that?!" InuYasha practically screamed as he remembered the last time she wore that outfit.

"You look like-" Miroku gawked at her.

"I know who I look like Miroku. My other clothes are ruined so I had to borrow this from Keade." Kagome put her hands on her hips as she said this. "Anyway, I'm going home for a little while today. I can get new clothes when I get there."

"Don't you mean we're going?" InuYasha questioned once he got over the shock of Kagome in THAT outfit.

"Oops! I almost forgot! InuYasha is coming with me so I can tell me mom about me and him!" Kagome informed the others with a sweet smile on her face.

"I'll be back." InuYasha stood up and quickly exited the hut.

"What was that all about?" Sango walked out of the back, confusing showing on her face.

"I smell ashes and dirt. I think its Kikyo." Shippou replied calmly.

"Nani?!" Worry and panic quickly overtook Kagome.

"Calm down Momma. He loves you, not her, remember?" Shippou jumped up on her shoulder and hugged her head for reassurance.

"I'm still going to go see what's happening." She grabbed the little kitsune, hugged him and then set him down and walked outside.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"InuYasha, I see you've come." Kikyo sat in a tree, looking down at the hanyou.

"Why are you here Kikyo?" He refused to even look at her.

"I am here to kill my reincarnation and take back my soul. Then, I'll drag you into Hell with me and we'll be together forever, my love." Kikyo replied with a small smile.

Kagome arrived in enough time to hear Kikyo finish. "You whore! I won't let you take InuYasha away from me!" She had her bow drawn and her arrow set.

Kikyo gave an evil cackle. "And how are you going to stop me, reincarnation?"

"We'll stop you. And have you not noticed something new about her Kikyo?" InuYasha had one of his infamous smirks on his face.

That's when Kikyo noticed the mark on Kagome's left shoulder. She gasped and stood up. She then realized that Kagome's appearance had changed as well. Kagome was hanyou, just like InuYasha.

"You mated with her! How dare you InuYasha, how dare you betray me like this!"

"I never betrayed you Kikyo! I told you I no longer love you. I love Kagome; she is my mate and is carrying my pup. She and I will be together forever and there's nothing you can do about it!"

"There may be nothing I can do about you taking her as your mate, InuYasha," Kikyo's voice was full of malice as she notched her bow and drew it back. "But I can do something about that pup of yours!"

Everything happened so quickly that if InuYasha and Kagome weren't hanyou, they wouldn't have known exactly what had gone on.

Kikyo released her arrow, aimed strait for Kagome's stomach. At the same time, Kagome had released her's as well. The two arrows collided, causing a bright light to flood the area. Two voices could be heard, sounding as if they were in an argument. InuYasha looked around only to find Kagome and Kikyo were floating about 4 ft above the ground, their eyes boring into each other's.

I am Kikyo, the miko charged with the responsibility of protecting the Shikon no Tama.

I am Kagome, a 17 year old schoolgirl and protector of the Shikon no Tama.

I died protecting the Shikon from evil.

I will die if it is needed to protect the Shikon from evil.

I loved InuYasha but wanted him to change.

I love InuYasha as he is.

I will take him to Hell with me.

I will protect him from you and keep him here!

Another flash of light came fourth, but this time from only Kagome. Her eyes became blank and she just floated there. Kikyo, however, dropped to the ground and weekly attempted to stand. She was drained of all energy, both normal and Miko. The souls quickly escaped her clay body, all except what was left of Kagome's.

Kagome slowly descend to the ground and stood as if nothing had happened. She cautiously walked up to Kikyo and touched her face.

"Kikyo, you are no longer of this world. You do not belong here. Your death will soon be avenged and you can rest in peace. Go now peacefully or I will not be held responsible for my actions."

"I will not die again!" Kikyo spat in Kagome's face.

"Fine, you leave me no choice." Kagome drew an arrow from her quiver and notched it after taking a step back from Kikyo. "Goodbye, Kikyo."

Kagome released the arrow and it flew into what would have been Kikyo's heart. Kikyo screamed in pain. Her life, the one she had before Naraku claimed her life, passed before her eyes.

Memories of her and Keade picking medicinal herbs in the fields, the local children and how she had always longed for one of her own, and InuYasha. Her mind flooded with memories of InuYasha. Memories of their first meeting, of their first conversation, of their first embrace. All of it.

Her eyes welled up with tears. Not from the pain she was suffering but from the heartache she had just seen.

`Oh how I wish I could be my reincarnation... To be the one InuYasha loves…' The instant she thought this, the part of Kagome's soul that was still embedded within Kikyo sprung forth and reentered Kagome. Kagome fell backwards as Kikyo's clay body returned to the ashes and grave soil it had been.

"KAGOME!" InuYasha screamed as he ran to her side. He didn't want interfere with the strange magic that had taken place, but her refused to let her get hurt. He had sworn to protect her, and he would.
