InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Destined Love ❯ The Truth Revealed ( Chapter 31 )

Thank you to all of my wonderful and supporting readers who have stuck by me. It really means a lot to know that no matter what happens you have people support . As I stated in my authors note I’ve had a lot of bad memories come up that made writing this part of the story extremely hard for me but I’ve moved past it and have starting writing again.
Just a warning to people though the next few chapters will not be happy, they are going to be filled with a lot of pain and anguish because this what the road to recovery is like after something like this. It’s not like someone can say a magic word and it all goes away, she is going to go through a lot of things and the people around her are going to have their own reaction to her predicament BUT DON’T WORRY!

Chapter 30 – The Truth Revealed

The group sat in awkward silence, the minutes seemed to rush by after the words had been uttered; those minutes turned to hours and the shock had yet to wane. Kagome had long since stopped crying and was now blankly staring at the sunset, eyes void of emotion.
“I’m sorry.” She whispered so softly it was almost unheard.
“What the hell are YOU apologising for? You did nothing wrong!” Inuyasha stated a little harsher than he meant but damn it he was angry!
Kagome flinched at his tone and shrank into herself more, “I couldn’t stop it... I couldn’t…” her eyes became hollow as the memories of what happened played through her mind over and over again.
“It’s alright Kagome, we’ll help you through thi...”
“IT’S NOT ALRIGHT!” Kagome interrupted with a yell. “It’s not… you have no idea what he did to me.” She whispered fearfully.
“Kagome… I know what happened to you was horrifying, but we can help you move forward, get past this.” Sayori tried to comfort her friend.
“No..” was all she said.
“What do you mean no Kagome?” Miroku asked slightly taken aback by his once bright friends attitude over the situation.
“I mean I can’t get past this… he won’t let me.” Kagome slurred out through her newly falling tears.
Sayori’s stomach fell, ‘oh no… please kami don’t let it be what I think it is.’ She thought to herself dread clawing at her insides, “What do you mean Kagome-neesan?” she asked carefully.
Kagome looked up at Sayori with a bitter smile, “What do you think I mean Sayori? Why do you see for yourself.” Came her hollow reply.
Sayori nodded and slowly made her way to the huddled miko, each step her heart rose further into her throat until she knelt in front of her. Sayori swallowed to moisten her now parched throat as she pealed back the collar of Kagome shirt and saw what she had feared.
“Oh my god…” Sayori whispered in tears as she hugged the miko to her who just sat and stared into the sunset.
“What is it Sayori?” Sango asked fearfully.
Sayori turned to the group and hugged Kagome closer, “It’s worse than we thought.” She whispered.
“How can it be worse!? Kagome was fucking raped for crying out loud!” Inuyasha yelled.
“It gets worse Inuyasha… much worse.” Sayori said looking into his eyes.
Inuyasha’s ears fell against his skull and he had a sinking feeling, “How?” he questioned softly.
“She wasn’t just raped.” She stated, confusing most of the group.
“she…” Sayori was interrupted by a hand on her arm.
“Sayori’s right…” Kagome said looking at the group in turn until her eyes landed on Sesshomaru who was staring at her.
“WHAT THE HELL COULD BE WORSE THAN RAPE!?” The Hanyou yelled in frustration.
“You want to know that bad Inuyasha?” Kagome hissed, “Fine!” she pulled away from Sayori and pulled the neck of her shirt down, “THAT Inuyasha! THAT is worse than what else he did to me!” she yelled tears streaming down her face.
Inuyasha fell backward with wide eyes, on Kagome shoulder was a mark of a spider; a mating mark, she was Naraku’s mate. Everyone was too deep in shock to notice the silent lord leave camp, nor did they notice the ruby eyes or the jagged stripes on his cheeks; something was going to die that night… and painfully.

~~~ With Naraku ~~~


Things were going exactly as he had planned, the group was in turmoil and soon he would have the jewel AND a beautiful mate. The memories of his time with Kagome came back with a flourish and made him shudder in pleasure; he was looking forward to it again; to break her as many times as he could. He was looking forward to seeing what the reactions were going to be when he told them how he did it. He was confident he had the power to overcome it and to see the looks on their faces was too much of a temptation to pass up.
Little did he know that his overconfidence would be his undoing.

~~~ With The Group ~~~

A week had passed since Kagome had been found and things we’re starting to look better; she had stopped scrubbing herself to the point of bleeding after the third day while bathing and she was starting to smile more; granted it had none of the lustre and love for life it once had but it was a start.
“Kagome-sama! Look what Rin has!” Rin yelled giggling as she ran up to the recovering girl with an armful of flowers.
No matter how sombre she felt, Kagome couldn’t stop the smile as it spread across her lips as she watched Rin run up to her. “They’re beautiful Rin, who are they for?” Kagome asked.
“They’re for you silly,” The young girl giggled, “Kagome-sama has been feeling down lately hasn’t she, Rin wanted to make Kagome-sama feel better!” she stated with a childish grin as she thrust the flowers into Kagome’s lap.
“Thank you Rin.” She smiled softly as she rubbed the bandages on her arms softly, granted she had stopped scrubbing so hard her skin would peel off four days ago but the wounds were still tender.
“Would you like something to eat Rin?” Kagome asked standing.
“Rin would love something to eat Kagome-sama!” she said as she stood as well and followed after Kagome.
“Ok now lets go over here and have a look shall we?” Kagome said as she walked over to her bag. Suddenly a crying Shippo went running under her feet to escape an angry Inuyasha causing her to loose her balance and fall forward. She closed her eyes and waited for the impact, but instead found male arms wrap themselves around her from behind and she panicked.
“NO! LET ME GO!” she yelled as she struggled like a caged animal.
“Calm down Kagome it’s me!” Inuyasha tried to soothe.
“NO! PLEASE NO MORE! JUST LET GO!” she yelled shakily as she turned and scratched at the face of who held her.
Inuyasha yelped in pain and held his eye as Kagome ran and huddled under a tree shaking, the whole thing shocked the group to say the least.
“Kagome-sama?” Came the teary voice of Rin, “ Rin want’s to know if Kagome-sama is ok.” Rin patted Kagome on the head and she flinched from the contact and her head shot up with wild eyes.
“Kagome?” Inuyasha asked softly.
As Kagome calmed down she looked up at Inuyasha and gasped in shock and horror; four little gash marks ran about three inches down his face over his right eye, “Oh god… I’m so sorry Inuyasha… I didn’t mean…” she started.
“Keh.. it’s all right woman, this’ll heal in no time; what about you? Are you ok?” He asked seriously.
“I’m ok,” she said with a tired smile, “I really didn’t mean to do that.” She said guiltily as she looked at the already healing wounds on his face.
In another corner of the camp Sango and Miroku were talking softly, “Looks like you were right Sango.” Miroku whispered.
“I’m afraid so,” Sango stated, “It looks like Kagome is now terrified of men.” She sighed sadly as she looked at her huddled friend. “And I thought we were making progress.”
“Now, now Sango; at least Kagome-sama is smiling around Rin, that’s a start.” Miroku offered.
“Yeah that is a start, but how is Sesshomaru going to handle this?” Sango asked.
“I’m afraid to ask.” Miroku said shuddering as he remembered seeing the Tai-Youkai coming back to the group a week ago covered in blood. “But if when Kagome-sama first came back in any indication, I do not want to be in the shoes of whoever gets on his bad side.” He didn’t know how right he was.
