Hanyou Heaven Chapter 2: A New Way To Live

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

“He's been like this for days…”

“I feel sorry for him.” Sango, Miroku, and Kaede sat around a fire inside the hut talking.

“Aye. We must do something to cheer him up,” Kaede said and stirred the stew boiling in a pot over the fire.

“Maybe fighting will help. We could find him some demons to kill,” Sango said.

“No. He'd just let us take care of them. We need to find him a woman. That's what I would want,” Miroku said and received a smack from Sango.

“We can't replace Kagome! And he's not a hentai like you, monk.”

“We could try…”

“No! We're not doing it!”

“How about a festival in Kagome's honor? Ye can set everything up,” Kaede suggested to stop them from fighting.

“That's a great idea, Lady Kaede!”

“Hai! We'll do it!”

“Come on, InuYasha! You have to eat. It's been days since you last have.” Out side Shippo held a bowl of rice out to the hanyou who just turned it away. Kirara gave a meow in encouragement, but receive a gruff growl.

“Leave me alone!”

“No! You need to eat!” Shippo yelled and shoved to bowl into his hands. InuYasha dropped it to the ground and got up. “Where are you going?!”

“It's none of your business!” he yelled back and disappeared into the forest.

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

“Higurashi-san? Are you alright?” Malana asked quietly and padded over to the crying girl.

“No! He's dieing! InuYasha's dieing because of me…!” Kagome cried out.

“InuYasha?! You mean the great hanyou that defeated Naraku?”

“He killed him?”

“Hai! And you know him?”

“Um-hmm…”

“Oh, you're so lucky, Higurashi-san! He's a hero here! The only bad thing is Naraku became the new devil.”

“Malana! Higurashi-san's trial is ready!” someone called through the door.

“Arigato, Miyu! Come now, Higurashi-san.”

“Please call me Kagome.”

“Kagome then, your trial might let you see him again. If you're happy, it might help.”

“O-okay!” Kagome wiped the tears from her face and stood up.

“You will become a guardian angel!” Malana said and raised her fist into the air.

“Hai! I will become a guardian angel! For InuYasha!” Kagome said and mimicked Malana's actions.

“That's the spirit! Now give me your hand.” Kagome held it out and Malana laid hers over it. In a bright flash of light they were in a huge chamber. Tall windows lined with golden drapes let in streams of the blinding light to show that it was almost completely empty inside.

“Kagome Higurashi. The present time school girl who sacrificed her normal life to help a hot tempered hayou collect the Shikon Jewel shard.” Kagome looked to the far end to see a girl hidden in the shadows was the source of the voice. She stepped out to reveal that she was not much older looking then Kagome. “I am the kagami of destiny and love.”

“Kagami?” Malana bowed and nudged Kagome in the ribs to follow suit. Kagome bowed and swallowed nervously. Kakumi smiled and flicked her golden fan open.

“Don't be nervous. You gave up a lot and were happy the whole time. You have a good chance to become a guardian angel.”

“R-really?”

“Hai. Now come here and stand still.” Kagome walked up and stood in front of her, closing her eyes. Kakumi held her fan over her head and a fine dust fell down over her. In a bright flash a completely different Kagome stood before them. Malana gasped and fell to her knees, bowing down to the ground.

“Oh, Kami-sama! She's a kagami!” she said and began to pray.

“Wha-what?!” Kagome looked up at a smiling Kakumi.

“You are far more then an angel. Fate! Come out here!” Kakumi called looking up at the ceiling.

“I'm at my loom now. What?” a voice echoed out.

“She's not an angel!” In a flash a young man appeared and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Kagome.

“She is… She's the one to take Rizu's place,” he said and slowly went up to them.

“What's everyone talking about? Please tell me!” Kagome asked looking back and forth between the two.

“Alright…” Kakumi lead her over to a mirror and she gasped.

Small yet alert dog ears swiveled around on top of her head as long golden hair replaced her late raven locks. Unblinking red eyes looked over herself as she traced the red cross on her forehead. A long golden tail piled at her feet, but something else to her gaze. A golden feather fluttered down from the huge wings on her back. They glowed in the bright light and she gently flapped them causing her to float a few inches from the ground.

“But how…” she whispered.

“You are a magami, Kagome…” Kakumi said and laid a hand on her shoulder.

“The new protector of the hayous of the living and forest of the world,” Fate said,” This is far more then I anticipated from a mere girl reincarnated from a shrine priestess. You must be more than you appear.”

“Of course she is, baka! Look at her! She's far more beautiful then Rezu… She would proud…” the kagami of love said clutching her fan to her heart with a sigh.

“Guys?”

“Hmm?”

“Can I still go InuYasha?”

“Well… She can go to the living, can't she, Fate?”

“Yes, but she'd have to disguise herself to any people she doesn't know.”

“So I can go to him?!”

“Hai.”

“Oh, thank you!” Kagome cried.

“Wait! Give this to InuYasha for me,” Kakumi said and handed her a letter.

“And one final,” Fate said holding his hand up,” Don't get to close. It's strictly forbidden that you do anything with him. We don't want little mortals running around with the powers of the kami's do you?” Her face went red and Kakumi giggled.

“We all know that you love him. Well, I do at least.”

“Is it that obvious?”

“Not really. I'm the magami of love. I'm supposed to know these things other wise i'd get complaints.” Kagome giggled and Fate cleared his throat.

“Well, you should go now,” he said brushing the bangs from his face,” Before Kakumi starts crying.” The little love kagami sniffed and hugged Kagome.

“But,” the new kagami looked at him a grinned,” How do I leave?” He waved his fingers and a book appeared. He handed it to her and pointed at a large set of doors.

“Go out and just dive down through the clouds, but be careful of other people.”

“Okay. Bye and thank you!” She pushed opened the doors and was greeted by the bright sun light. She stretched her wing out and looked at the clouds under her. “Just dive down, huh?” She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and jumped through. As instinct her wings opened up and she began to glide. She opened her eyes and smiled.

Beneath her were the wide forests and open rice fields of feudal Japan. “Oh! I can't let any one see me!” She flipped open the book and found the page for the rules on it. A tiny memory popped into her head and she did as it came to her. She snapped her and whispered, ”Hai!” In an instant she disappeared, by what she thought.

“Demon! Where is my child?!” A yell hit her ears and she looked down to see the figures of people bellow and it didn't look good. She landed close by and saw that a group of angry villagers were chasing a small girl with familiar wild orange hair.

“She's a hanyou…” The girl stumbled and fell to sit at the base of a tree trembling with fear.

“The new protector of the hanyous of the livings and all forests of the world.” Fate's words echoed through her head.

“Protector of all living hanyous…” she whispered to herself.

“No! Leave me alone!” She looked down to see the villagers were hitting the girl. She growled as her unknown motherly instincts came in.

“I have to do something!” She looked around and saw a rotting tree was behind the villagers and an idea popped up in her head. She jumped down and landed behind it. With a swift kick the tree went falling to the ground knocking up a cloud of blinding dust. Taking the chance, Kagome picked the girl up and flew off. The girl coughed a few times and Kagome dropped her disguise.

“Kagome?!” she exclaimed. Kagome blinked and looked closer at the girl.

“Malana?!” Malana hugged Kagome and started crying.

“I'm so glad to see you! Those villagers thought a had stolen one of their children!” Kagome landed on a high tree limb and set her down.

“What are you doing here?!”

“They sent me to watch you and I got lost…” Kagome sighed and sat down next to her.

“Well, you found me. You'd like Shippo a lot. I don't know about th-“ She stopped as the tree gave a sudden shake.

“What was that?!” Malana said and looked down.

“I don't know, but I have a feeling it's not good.” The tree shook again and began to tilt. It began to fall and Kagome grabbed Malana and jumped down to the ground. They were met by a crowd of nasty looking demons. Quite a few of them looked human so they must have some kind.

“Well, well…. Look we found boys. A couple of good looking girls,” one said and stepped forward. He seemed to be the leader and looked to be an outcast inu-youkai.

“Back off, freaks!” Kagome growled and held her claws up for them to see. The leader laughed and spat at her feet.

“Weak hanyou's it seems too. Easy enough to get and no one would really care what happened to em' anyway. Time for some fun, guys!” The crowd behind him cheered his name.

“Gegromaru! Geromaru!”

“Try to and I'll kill you!” Kagome said and pushed Malana behind her. Memories flooded her head. Fighting skills, spells, and curses came back to her as if a file had been open in the back of her head.

“Sure, little missy. I'll try you good!” He pulled out a sword and held it out at ready. “Come at me!” Kagome grinned and held her hands out in front of her. With a few words a bow and arrow appeared in them and she notched it in.

“Fine.” She drew it back and let it fly. Gegromaru tried to block it with his sword, but it only snapped in half and hit his chest with the thud. He landed on his back dead and Kagome got another arrow. “Next,” she said coolly to the quiet crowd of demons. They roared and charged at her.

She created a sword and slashed through the group. A cry came from Malana as a demon got a hold of her. Kagome jabbed her sword through its chest and Malana scurried to her side. She gasped and pointed behind her. She turned around just as a demon came up and slashed her shoulder with a short katana. She hissed in pain and killed it on the spot.

“A-are you alright!?” Malana cried. Kagome nodded and sliced an on coming demon in half. Another huge wave cam at her and she abandoned her sword. She slashed out her claws and three blades of golden energy cut through the crowd for her to receive a long line of agonizing cries.

The battle dragged on until the last few ran away leaving Kagome with a few pretty bad wounds. A deep slash on her shoulder, a hole through her stomach, and a few deep gashes on her legs.

“Kagome! We need to get you help!” Malana cried kneeling beside her.

“The village isn't far away. We can go there.” She got up and with Malana's help slowly made their way towards the village.
