Chapter Twenty-Four: A New Leaf
Villagers mourned silently for the souls who had been lost over the night, it looked like a plague had rampaged through the small village. Neighbors clutched each other, trying to find the inner strength that had all about disintegrated. The ones that were still alive were lost for words, it would be possible to rebuild everything that was damaged, but it would never be the same again. Clouds were dark and the wind was blowing the leaves off of trees, the weather befitted the mood of the destroyed area. It smelled like rain and within the next hour of two there was no doubt of the heavens opening up and crying for those who no longer could.
Sango stood at the top of the shrine that was now in ruins. Blood of demons and her fallen comrades were stained forever into her kimono, her hands were stained as well and whenever she closed her eyes she could see them. The pain in her heart was excruciating and no matter what it would never leave. No longer could she find herself able to grasp any understanding of fate and how the gods worked, they were too cruel to even try to begin understanding. Miroku had been the one who dragged her from the burning hut, he had saved her from the death she wanted, but he had also opened more hurt then the demon exterminator could take as a human and as a woman.
Kaede was dead, her children as well and when she regained consciousness to see the weary-eyed village women, she knew that they had lost the battle. At first she cried hysterically, her painful screams loud and pounded into the memories of every villagers that had survived. That night Sango’s entire life had become frozen in time, it stood still before crumbling like clumped dirt. With the death of the villages’ eldest and only priestess and Sango incapacitated, the poison in Miroku’s veins had been left unpurified and merely minutes before she woke from the darkness, the monk slipped into it. Never once did one person have to have the weight of so much grief on their chest.
No one had wanted to give the demon exterminator the devastating news, but she was quick to figure it out and when she realized that once again the ones she cared about the most had been taken from her, she snapped. The villagers knew better than to approach her unless they wanted to risk injury, so she was left to her solitude until the hanyou and Kagome’s return. Naraku had taken away her family once again, and deep down it was more than likely the evil half demon was behind the horde of demons. He had somehow been able to rob her of her happiness that she struggled for so long to attain, he took everything important away from her and she couldn’t escape it.
‘Kohaku,’ the tears may not have been falling, but on the inside they were like a never ending waterfall. ‘Why me? Miroku, how could you do this to me? I’m not strong enough to do this on my own. Why? WHY?’
The fires had been extinguished and the small village w3as currently trying to rebuild what they lost, to turn a new leaf, but Sango wanted no part in it. In her heart she could only feel the hatred and pain that she’d been left with. Over a night’s time the demon exterminator had gone from loving wife and mother, to an empty shell hell bent on revenge. She would never be able to go back to who she was, Sango had become a trapped soul and almost a lost soul.
Glancing down at the working villagers, she almost sighed. Morning had come a few hours before and it was about time for the ceremony to begin. Picking up her enormous boomerang and slinging it over her shoulder, Sango headed down the shrine’s stairs. No matter how much she wanted to go find the half demon who killed her family, she had other more important things to attend to at the moment. Neighbors of her gave sympathetic looks to her, the unshed tears in the women’s eyes, their children clutching their clothing and dirt covering their small faces. There was so many sad eyes watching her every move and Sango stiffened her body, her back straight and her head up. She didn’t want to give in to her feelings, she had been a warrior, a commander at one point, and this time she didn’t want to share her weakness with anyone. It was hers alone to carry, hers only.
Stopping at the front, Sango swallowed the lump in her throat, she didn’t want to believe that this was actually happening, after everything that happened ten years just wasn’t enough for her. The smell of wood was strong and for a moment she imagined that she was traveling in the forest again, hunting with him by her side, a young Seiko strapped to her back and Minoru holding her hand trying to pretend that he was like his father. It was too hard for her not to just walk away, to realize that she’d be alone for the rest of her life. The demon exterminator had nothing left.
Carefully, Sango picked up Miroku’s staff and listening to its jingle she bit down on her lower lip. She wouldn’t ever let it go. The silence was deafening, but after placing a few items on the corpse of her husband, Sango took a few deep breaths, this would be the last time she would be able to see his face, it would be the last anything with him. Gently she touched his pale face, her tired fingers brushing against his cheek and lips, it almost looked like he was sleeping, but Sango knew the harsh truth that he wasn’t.
Sango said a small prayer under her breath before closing her eyes and stepping away from him. Her hand shot out and a lit torch was placed it in. She wouldn’t allow any of them to go near him, she wanted to be the one to send her family to the after life, it had to be her or no one. Placing the torch on the wood, Sango let go of everything she once believed it, love, hope, and any happiness that was possible. A large part of her died as Miroku and what was left of their children and Kirara burned into ashes. It was something that would only hold her back in her new journey, she wouldn’t be staying in the village anymore, she would leave in search of the beast that stole her life away. She would go and find Naraku.
~~oOo~~
InuYasha was the first to wake, his amber eyes slowly opening and a small smile playing on his face. His body was enveloped in warmth and the weight on his chest told him that the night he had shared with Kagome was no dream. Debating against the though of going back to sleep, the hanyou ran his clawed hand up and down Kagome’s naked shoulder. Things would be different this time, he would make sure of it and then happiness was only a turn away, it could be reached.
A soft groan made his ears twitch and glancing down at a pile of messy black hair, he felt his heart quicken. She was absolutely beautiful and he never wanted to let her go. This picture was what he wanted to wake up to every morning for the rest of his life and he would give anything to attain it. Gooseflesh appeared all over his body as Kagome’s hand ran across his chest and he shut his eyes trying to resist the overwhelming need to moan. She had such an affect on him and he secretly wondered if this was because of him being in love with her.
“Morning sunshine,” he whispered into her hair, his clawed hands wrapping around her waist and pulling her close.
“I hate morning people,” she grumbled thickly hiding her face in his chest and struggling to go back to sleep. “I think they should be tied and gagged, maybe even shot.”
Ignoring her comment, InuYasha kissed the top of Kagome’s head before sitting up. It was more than obvious that he didn’t want to, but running his clawed fingers through his own matted hair, he tiredly rubbed the sleep from his eyes. Kagome groaned loudly, rolling over and burying her face into her pillows, she wasn’t ready to get up yet, though maybe in a couple of hours when the sun rose. She felt him leave the bed and was tempted to see what he was doing, however, the yawn that escaped her throat reminded her how tired she was still so she let herself drift off to sleep.
The hanyou wasted no time climbing out of the comforts of Kagome’s bed locating where his pants were thrown and pulling them over his bare buttocks. Clothes were everywhere and it made him smirk before turning to gaze at the half sleeping girl on the bed. A sheet covered only half of her body and her hair was sprawled out all around her, to him Kagome was the epitome of beauty. Her skin was pale and licking his dry lips, InuYasha finished tying his pants before going back to where Kagome slept.
Climbing into the bed as softly as he could so not to be noticed, InuYasha towered over the sleeping Kagome, a mischievous smirk on his face. His hair fell over his shoulders and silver mixed with ebony as his clawed hand slowly traveled up warm flesh. The girl underneath him growled and InuYasha chuckled, his hand touching her breast as his lips nibbled on Kagome’s shoulder. She wouldn’t be able to go back to sleep and he easily rolled Kagome onto her back and captured her mouth in a heated kiss.
His body practically hovered over Kagome’s naked body, the only thing holing him up were his knees and the hands that held down Kagome’s wrists. He couldn’t allow himself to be captured by passion, not when there still was a lot more left to be done. However he was now fighting a losing battle as her tongue parted his lips and roamed his mouth freely. Oh god it was so tempting to get lost inside her and he could feel her heart pounding in her chest along with his in his own chest, it was a feeling that he’d never get tired of.
“Kagome,” he moaned against her mouth. “We gotta go back.”
Her reply was arching her hips against his and the hanyou succumbed to the beauty underneath him. He shouldn’t have even tried and now he was ‘paying the price’. Clawed hands roamed, touching and teasing every piece of flesh within reach, the journey back through the well would have to wait till later.
~~oOo~~
It had been a long time since she had been allowed to resurface and she eagerly took whatever was given in order to prepare. Naraku was still powerful, however it was her body and the evil hanyou had his limits also. For a few hours every night she would be allowed to reign free without confinements as Naraku slept deep within the back of her mind. Although the form which he decided to take was her new body, she would never appear as a woman again, he had made sure of it.
He deemed it as he punishment, though she didn’t need to have a woman’s body in order to control her powers, those came from her soul, not her pathetic excuse for a body. She searched for anything that would help, but carefully, there was always something watching and often she found herself acting like the evil hanyou so no eyebrows would be raised about her (or his) behavior. It was frustrating beyond belief, yet it was her fault why she was in her current situation. All actions have consequences and she was not exempt from the rule, neither was Naraku though.
All she had to do was cast a few spells and pray to the gods she once believed didn’t exist and hope for a miracle. She was certain that Naraku wouldn’t notice for a while, however she hoped that the Inu-hanyou and his Kikyo look-a-like would come to drag Naraku back to the underworld sooner than later. Time was of the essence and even the good had limits with patience.
‘Just hold on a little longer please,’ Tsubaki called out into the mirror. ‘They’ll come and things will be set right. He’ll pay, I know he will.’
Darkness swirled around her, puling her away and Tsubaki cried out as the pain filled her. Somehow it was always different, Naraku was a beast of torture and she cursed the day she agreed to let him revive her. Trying as hard as she could to keep control of her body, Tsubaki locked away all of her plans so Naraku couldn’t eavesdrop through her progress. She may have been weak, but she had the will power to get rid of the evil hanyou and no power could destroy will power.
