Chapter 9: Meetings
When the bright light dimmed, Kurama and Youko were still staring fiercely at each other. Everyone stopped fighting to stare at Kurama. His appearances had changed. Kurama seemed to be a mix of the youkai before him and his human self. His gorgeous red hair had silver highlights and his deep emerald eyes gained golden flecks. He had grown and few inches and had medium-sized claws. Kurama also gained cute red fox ears and a bushy tail.
The kitsune-hanyou and his incarnation growled fiercely at each other. When Kurama had seen Youko, it must have triggered something in his subconscious and brought on this drastic change.
The stranger suddenly stepped forward. "Please stop this madness now. Youko, Kurama, I know this must be confusing, but think of how this beautiful maiden feels," the stranger said, then glanced back at her with a charming smirk and waggled his eyebrows suggestively at her.
Kagome blushed; forgetting momentarily about the situation the lust curse had placed her in. Suddenly, the guys reminded her by approaching her with hungry expressions plastered on their faces. The stranger materialized before her in fighting stance. Kagome rolled her eyes and yelled, "SIT", forming another InuYasha-sized crater. A boomerang came out of the forest and whacked Miroku in the head. Kaede and Sango stepped out of their hiding places just in time for Sango to catch her boomerang. Sango shot an angry glare at Miroku while Kaede muttered an incantation. Kagome was curious as to what she was chanting.
Kagome soon got her answer when a rosary bead materialized on each man's neck. Kagome smirked. `I wonder,' she thought deviously, `what word should I use? I think I will use one word for all of them except Kurama, Youko, and the stranger. That would mean when one misbehaved, they all would be punished. Oh well.
"Miroku, Kouga, Koenma, Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Hiei, SIT!!!" Kagome screamed. They all looked at her strangely before the rosary beads glowed a pinkish tint and they were slammed unmercifully to the ground.
"Kurama, I'm sorry, but I need a trigger word for you too. Down," Kagome said softly. She knew that he didn't deserve to be subdued at that instant, but it couldn't be avoided. Kagome needed to give the rosary a trigger word.
"Youko, BAD," Kagome giggled slightly at the word she had chosen for the kitsune thief. She would have to be careful not to use that word unintentionally. Kagome then looked with guilty eyes at the stranger.
"Um, what's your name?" she questioned.
"Koronu," the stranger responded.
"Thanks for your help, Koronu. I'm sorry, but I also need a trigger word for your rosary beads." Kagome apologized beforehand.
"You can try if you'd like," Koronu said unfazed, "but your subduing spell won't affect me unless I truly do something wrong."
"Oh, why not?" Kagome asked, interested. Koronu held up a talisman as an answer. Kagome nodded, sighted, and then turned back to the other troublesome males. She took in Kurama's new appearance hungrily. He was even more of a hunk now as a hanyou.
By now, all of the men were up and at it again. Sango glared at Miroku and Kaede sighed and shook her head in admonishment at the males' antics.
"BAD, SIT DOWN!!!" Kagome shouted. She really hated this lust spell and would seriously injure whoever messed with her life so thoroughly.
Kagome turned to Sango, Kaede, and Koronu. "We had to tie them up or restrain them somehow. They can get seriously injured if I have to constantly subdue them."
"I agree," Koronu added, "I really hate to see Youko, Kurama, and Kouga like this."
"How do ye know them?" Kaede questioned.
"I am Youko's fellow bandit. We are best friends. Kouga is my ally; I have helped him get out of many a tight situation. Also, my talisman had many magical properties. One of them allows me brief glimpses of the future. That is how I know of Kurama. I assure you, they would never act this way unless under the influence of a spell," Koronu replied sadly.
"I know," Kagome agreed, frowning. "Let's get them all back to Kaede's hut to restrain them. The only thing that could possibly make this situation worse would be if you fell under this spell."
"Don't jinx yourself, Kagome," Sango admonished sternly. (A/N: LOL. I wonder what could make the situation worse? ^__^)
***Kaede's Hut***
(Kagome's POV)
I cannot believe this. Thank god for Koronu. He is the only thing keeping me sane right now. Kaede and Sango are also a good help. What about Genkai and the other lady, though? The one with the blue hair seemed to be very upset when the boys started hitting on me.
I know I'm going to be receiving the dream Genkai warned me about tonight. I'm afraid to go to sleep. What if the past is something I don't want to see? "Oh well, goodnight everyone," Kagome whispered into the darkness of the hut before she fell asleep.
***Kagome's Dream***
"Hello Kagome," Midoriko greeted warmly. "Many things here in you subconscious will surprise and upset you," she warned, "You can turn back now, but you will never learn the truth that way."
"I want to know what really happened," Kagome requested.
"If that is what you wish, child," Midoriko replied before everything faded to black.
When everything regained color, Kagome was greeted with the creation of the Shikon no Tama. She watched as Midoriko created the jewel with her dying breathe. That she knew of. Then, something unexpected happened. Midoriko's stomach expanded with her unknown pregnancy. In the same second, the Shikon no Tama exploded out of her chest and she gave birth to a baby girl. Kagome looked on with shocked eyes and the Shikon fell into the arms of its first guardian and the child was transported through time and space. She landed in Japan, 1987.
"Your that child, my child," Midoriko said, appearing out of thin air.
"That's impossible," Kagome whispered.
"You were transported to the 1987 from my time. When you turned fifteen, a tiny portion of your power was awakened. You went through the well to InuYasha's time." Midoriko replied.
"I'm Kikyou's reincarnation," Kagome argued.
Midoriko sighed, and everything once more faded to black.
Kagome watched the baby regress back into a fetus and implant itself into Sakura Higurashi, Kagome's mother. Then, nine months later, Kagome was born. Sakura proudly showed her baby girl to her husband, father, and mother-in-law.
"Genkai is my father's mother," Kagome whispered as realization hit her.
She looked into Midoriko's eyes as the scene once again faded. "How did the Shikon become implanted in my hip and why do I look so much like Kikyou? And how the hell did I become a kitsune?" Kagome questioned her real mother. Midoriko was her mother; it was so strange.
"When they burned the Shikon with Kikyou's body, it searched for its true guardian and implanted itself into your body. You were still a newborn and it made you resemble its past guardian. You are the Shikon no Tama's true guardian. It belongs with you, and you with it. The shards fulfilled your heartfelt wish to become a kitsune. Now, many youkai, hanyous, and ningens will be after you. Some because of the lust spell. Others will come for the Shikon. Your powers will completely manifest themselves after the next full moon," Midoriko explained. "That is all you have to know for now. I will visit you again in your dreams. Farewell…daughter."
Kagome suddenly sprung awake. She glanced around her to see that the devious men had escaped their bindings while she was asleep.
"BAD, SIT DOWN!!!" Kagome screamed, thoroughly upset. "You are horrible. All I need is for Hojo, Sesshoumaru, and Naraku to fall under this damn forsaken lust spell and my misery will be complete." Kagome was bawling now. She sprinted out of the hut and into the forest. Kagome ran nonstop for at least three hours before she collapsed in exhaustion. She was in the Western Lands. Kagome to a peek at her surroundings; she had found a beautiful clearing with hot springs. She glanced up at the sky.
`The full moon is in three days,' she thought forlornly. She didn't want her power to full manifest. Kagome was terrified of the aspect of having that much power.
The sun would rise in about an hour, and Kagome was falling asleep. `I'll rest for just a second. I'll be fine,' she thought sleepily.
Kagome's eyes closed as a pair of golden eyes staring at her from the cover of the darkness turned green.
