Kagome's Blessing in a Curse

By: Cap'n BlackRose

Chapter One

"No…No…N-nooo!! This can't be happening…" Kagome whispered in horror to herself as she watched Inu-Yasha and Kikyo's passionate exchange. "I Gave you my heart, my soul, and all of my trust!! And this is how you repay me?!? You step all over everything, using my feelings as a doormat!? No more…no more…no more…" Kagome whispered into the night, releasing her pain, sorrow, and the tattered remains of her love for Inu-Yasha into the cold hard wind her powers dredged up, leaving nothing but her simmering anger. With that, she started back to camp, her footsteps making no sound as she passed like a wraith to plot her revenge on her first love that so ruined everything for her. `I will no longer allow myself to be hurt! No longer will I be open to prying eyes.' She thought angrily as her black and silver clad figure moved stealthily through the woods.

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

His feeling of all-consuming guilt for what happened to Kikyo trapped Inu-Yasha. As he allowed her to embrace him, he caught whispered words of hurt in the cold and magically conjured wind that suddenly surrounded him and Kikyo.

. "I Gave you my heart, my soul, and all of my trust!! And this is how you repay me?!? You step all over everything, using my feelings as a doormat!? No more…no more…no more…"

Stunned by who the voice belonged to, he saw a flash of silver and magically glowing cerulean blue eyes as the now identified Kagome turned away and silently started walking back towards camp.

`I really stepped in some shit this time!!!' Inu-Yasha thought as he tried to get away from Kikyo to talk to Kagome. But she refused to let him go, and in the end, he was forced to stay with her instead of trying to convince Kagome with some lie of his. Kikyo, To caught up in one of her rare moments of passion and love, didn't notice his momentary struggle to escape.

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

The next morning Kagome woke up earlier than the others. She sneaked by Inu-Yasha and the others silently. `Sango's gonna kill Miroku when she wakes up!' Kagome thought with mirth when she saw that Miroku was right next to Sango. When she got out of the camp sight, she started thinking about what to do about Inu-Yasha and Kikyo. Inspiration struck her when she reached the God Tree. `I know! I will lure him and Kikyo here, then I will pin them both to the tree!' she with gusto. `It is quite ironic though. The person I said I loved, I am about to `kill.' She thought mildly. `And what will make this even better is, this is the same way Kikyo got rid of him fifty years ago!' With those final thoughts, she finished her walk and went back to camp.

"Where's the bitch?" Inu-Yasha was asking angrily.

"Inu-Yasha-" Miroku was about to say something calming to their friend, when Kagome walked into camp.

"Hi everyone!" she said with false happiness as she walked into camp.

"YOU!!!!! WHERE WERE YOU?!?" Inu-Yasha yelled at her before she had even gotten into camp all the way.

She stopped right where she was as soon as he said this and turned and faced him. Her eyes were filled with an iciness that could have frozen hell over. "I could ask the same of you…" she said with quiet menace. As Inu-Yasha stuttered to say something she sat down and got a book out like she was going to study. She suddenly put it down with the slightest trace of panic on her face. "I forgot!! I have a test tomorrow!! I have to go home!" she said as she got up and not even with her bag started to leave.

"Kagome your bag!!" Sango yelled quickly.

"Watch it for me!!" she yelled over her shoulder before she broke into a run.

Inu-Yasha had finally come out of his stuttering fit when he saw her take off at a run down the path. "NO YOU DON'T!!!!!" he yelled at her as he went running after her.

"Again." Was all Sango said.

"Again." Miroku agreed with her as he went up to her.

"Not again." Sango said to Miroku, as he was about to grab her.

"Not again." He muttered sullenly as he went to go sit down.

"Grown-ups are weird!" Shippou muttered as he went back to sleep.

All this had taken place as Inu-Yasha was chasing Kagome. `Damn!! How and when did she get so fast??' he wondered as he raced after her, obviously having trouble keeping up.

`Perfect!! He really does think I'm heading to the well!!' Kagome thought happily. `I hope I get there in time to alert Kikyo!' she thought as she ran even faster. When she was brought out of her thoughts, she heard Inu-Yasha cussing like there was no tomorrow. `And he talked to his mother with that mouth??' she thought astonished as she listened.

"Damn that fucking bitch!! When I get my hands on her I am going to…" he stopped what he was saying when he sensed Kagome come to a halt in the clearing where the God Tree was. `What is she doing?' he wondered.

When Kagome got to the clearing, she darted behind some bushes and cast a spell to hide her scent. Then she got her bow and arrow ready. While she was doing this, she was thinking the entire time. `Let me see now…how to get Kikyo here…I know she is around. She more than likely saw me when I got here. Ah!! I know what to do!!! All I need to do is wait for Inu-Yasha.' She thought as she got an arrow ready and aimed it at Kikyo's aurora. `Come on Inu-Yasha!'

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

`What are you planning little miko?' a thoughtful Kikyo asked as she saw Kagome arrive in the clearing and run behind some bushes. `I shall watch and see what becomes of this.' With that, she settled down and watched.

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

When Inu-Yasha got to the clearing, he didn't smell Kagome. All he could smell was Kikyo. He then suddenly saw an arrow come pelting out of some bushes towards Kikyo's scent. Fearing for the worst, he immediately ran to where the arrow was heading and saw Kikyo. "Kikyo!! MOVE!!!" Inu-Yasha yelled. But when she made no sign of moving, he ran and lifted her out of the way into the sky. When he came down he landed on a root of the God Tree that was sticking up from the ground. "What in the seven fiery pits of hell were you aiming at bitch?!?" he yelled at the bushes he thought she was in.

`Perfect! And here I thought it would be difficult to maneuver him to be there!' an elated Kagome squealed mentally as she moved to a new clump of bushes. She was still in a hiding spot and she didn't want her movements to be given away, so with a spell she magically had her voice echo about the clearing so he couldn't tell from which direction it came from. "Inu-Yasha, do you know what it is like to love someone more than the air you breath, more than the food you eat, and more than the very Gods-"

"OF COURSE!!!!!!!!" Inu-Yasha yelled loudly, causing flights of birds to take wing from the trees.

Continuing from where she had been cut off like nothing happened she stunned him with her next words. "-and not have that love returned even the slightest bit? And to make matters worse, you step all over my feelings like they are nothing!!!!!" she hissed the last part into stun induced silence.

Inu-Yasha stood there in stunned silence. `she loved me?!? Wait a minute…loved…does that mean she doesn't love me anymore?!?' As Inu-Yasha was allowing these things to run through his mind, Kagome was stringing her bow and getting ready. Kikyo was too busy to see what Inu-Yasha's reaction to the word `loved' that she wasn't paying attention to Kagome. BIG MISTAKE.

"Inu-Yasha I really did love you…but not anymore!" Kagome said quietly. "Good-bye old friend!!!" yelling the last part she released the arrow pinning Inu-Yasha and Kikyo together in a lover's embrace on the God Tree, suffered to go throughout eternity in limbo with each other. Inu-Yasha dwelling on whom he loves most and Kikyo on her hate. "I'm so sorry Inu-chan…" Kagome said using his pet name she had created for him. "You really did leave me no other choice…she was going to kill me and you refused to see the truth and kill her first." Kagome then made a barrier that would protect them and whatever they had with them, from thieves, demons looking for an easy meal, and time. She was thinking mainly of Sesshou-Maru and the tetsiagia. She then left. She left not only in person for a few days, after informing her friends that she had a fight and had to avoid Inu-Yasha, but also in spirit. Kagome had become a nearly emotionless shell after she did her deed and only pretended around her friends to be the same.

"Later guys!!! See you in a few days!! Remember, don't go near Inu-Yasha, he is in a really bad mood!! He's at the God Tree." She said to her friends as she jumped down the well. `That takes care of them finding him…for now at least.'

~*~*~*~

"Mom, I'm home!" Kagome yelled as she came into the house. All was quite. Going over to the table she found a note from her mother.

`Kagome, I finally found someone last week! I am out with him and will be back at about ten. I want you here to meet him so don't leave! Please!! Oh and Souta and Gramps will be back later. They went shopping. Love, Mom'

"What on God's green earth…" Kagome was stunned and that was a major understatement! "I don't want anyone else!! I don't want another father…" She said in a sad voice. "I quite…I am no longer going to come back here. I am going to go back one last time and maybe destroy the well. Heh…Inu-Yasha you finally got what you wanted…I'm coming and I am never coming back here…" She trailed off in a hollow voice. "She wouldn't want a shell of her former daughter anyway." She said remembering how she acted when not around her friends. With that she got some paper and wrote a note to her mother.

`Mom, I am going to be staying in the feudal era for now on. I don't want a replacement father, and I am sure you wouldn't want just a shell of your daughter here. Something has happened and I am not your innocent loving daughter anymore. I am now nothing but a shell with a good acting streak in it. Never fear for my safety! My friends will look after me well! Tell Souta I will tell Inu hi for him. And tell Gramps not try anything with the well! I am going to destroy the well on the other side so no one can get me and no one can force me back! Hope you hit it big with your special someone! Don't let my disappearance drag you down! If he makes you happy, then you have my stamp of approval! I will leave some money with the note…buy some flowers and put them on daddy's grave one last time for me. Sayonara. Love always!! Kagome'

"Now that that is out of the way, I gotta go get my money for the note." She walked upstairs and anything and everything small and special, that she could keep with her, she put in a bag to take with her. She changed because now she would be the predator now and not a "helpless" girl. She never had been one, but she put the face on to make Inu-Yasha feel big. She would still help using her miko powers, but a miko uniform would get in the way and also she couldn't be thought to be a lone traveling miko with no defense. That would just be tiresome how many times people and youkai alike would try to take advantage of her. With that she folded it and put it in the sack. Then she got some lose, baggy draw-string work-out pants colored black, with a sleeveless black tummy top with a silver dragon, and to top it off, she put on black socks and she even found some black/gray Nike tennis shoes. She then put a couple extra outfits like it in her bag. She put her hair back in a ponytail with a black hair tie, and she was ready! "Nice new look for a new predatory me!" She said, pleased with her new look. With that she went out to the well house for the last time and jumped in to go to her new home in feudal era to forge a new life. Of course, she really wouldn't destroy the well. She just said that so no one would waste his or her time trying to "magic" her back.
