When Inuyasha finally stopped it was night and they were on the outskirts of the village a few feet away from the entrance to the forest. Kagome was still in his arms asleep and Shippo was still in her lap, finally asleep. He slowly walked not to disturb anyone. He noticed that a fire was burning in Kaede's hut. Around this fire, he saw three laughing figures, namely,Kaede, Miroku, and Sango. When he entered the hut, he nodded a greeting, and went to the back of the hut to lay down Kagome and Shippo, who stirred lightly. Placing a screen infront of them, he turned and went back to his friends, sitting between Miroku and Kaede.

"Inuyasha, ye are early" Kaede said with a smile
"Well a lot has happened the last few days" Inuyasha said grimly "We have two more shards, Koga's, but we need them all"
"Koga's?" Sango says "But how? why?"
"Kagome asked him for them, when he told her no they fought, and she took them. Her life depends on us having them all." Inuyasha says sadly

He fills the group in on the dream Kagome had and the fight between her and Koga, including the effect it has seemed to have on her. After explaining everything in detail, the group decides to turn in for the night. All going to the back of the hut, Inuyasha lays with Kagome and Shippo, while Miroku lays close to Sango. Inuyasha gives Kagome a kiss on her temple and whispers a few comforting words in her ear. He then, embraces her and drifts off to sleep.

The next morning Kagome was the first awake, feeling better than ever, she looks aroubd and realizes she's in Kaede's hut with the rest of her pack, save Kaede. She then moves away from Inuyasha and goes to the front of the hut, near the fire pit, and begins to prepare breakfast. She lights the fire and puts a pot of water on the fire to boil. She then sets out some ramen for Shippo and Inuyasha and leaves to catch some fish and pick fresh berries for the others. When she returned, she prepared the fish for cooking and removed the now boiling water. When the fish was almost done, she brewed the tea and began preparing the ramen. Rising, she went to the back of the hut to wake the others. It was a few hours after dawn and everyone was shocked to see Kagome back to her usual self. Betting herself ready for the onslaught of questions, she instructs them to sit down for breakfast. They all obeyed, eating quietly.

After breakfast, Miroku decides to break the silence. "Lady Kagome, are you feeling ok this morning, Inuyasha told us everything last night before bed"
"Yes Miroku, I'm fine, it was just hard attacking an ally. Sesshomaru was easy. I think I hurt Koga's feelings, but he made me choose between my life and his." She sighs "We have to gather the rest of the jewel shards, it's way too important now."
"I agree with you Kagome, we can leave right after breakfast if you like" Sango says
"I would like that" Kagome smiles
After breakfast and the restocking of Kagome's bag, they were off. They traveled till lunch in the direction of the Western Lands in hopes of meeting with Sesshomaru. A few hours later Inuyasha decides it would be a good time to stop and let the humans rest. They stop in a part of the forest with a beautiful waterfall, lots of trees, and a river stocked full of fish. The group sat down to rest, their feet in the cool river water, while Shippo played with Kirara. Suddenly, the hair on KAgomes neck started standing and she growled irritably.

"What's wrong Koi?" Inuyasha asks sniffing the air
"Kikyo is near" She say
"Really I don't sm..." he stops picking up her scent and seeing her soul collectors. "Come on Kagome, it's time to tell Kikyo about us"
"Gladly" she says with a smirk
A few minutes later they come in sight of Kikyo:
"Inuyasha why did you bring my copy" Kikyo says in a toneless voice
"Kikyo, i"m glad to be your copy. That means, I only look like you. Just like you are a copy of Midoriko. But, I am Midoriko's true reincarnation, I am her in every aspect including power" Kagome says with a smile
"You are weak, if my sense is correct, you're not even human anymore. Stop hiding it. You're a half breaad, but how? Kikyo inquired
"I am a hanyou because I mated with Inuyasha and the powers that flow through my veins. Kikyo, you are the weak one. Your powers have limitations, mine are limited" she says transforming
"Ha, that's a joke. Miko and youkai powers cannot be housed in the same body" she says knotching an arrow
"Take your best shot, you walking talking peice of pottery" Kagome says

Kikyo released the arrow, just as it makes it close enough to Kagome, she catches it. Knotching it in her bow, she returns it to it's owner. Kikyo tries to put up a barrier to stop it, but the arrow penetrates, striking her in the shoulder.

"Ow, you bitch" Kikyo says removing the arrow "How dare you?"
"DId you know that 'bitch' is a compliment to a female inu youkai. Like I told you, my powers are much stronger than yours. But I'll do you a favor, I'll purify the part of my soul that resides in your body, reclaim it, saving you from hell, and we'll lay your body back to rest."

Kagome throwss a dagger at Kikyo who tries again to put up a barrier. The dagger goes through the barrier striking Kikyo's heart. "Purify" Kagome notices Kikyo's aura go from black to pure pink. "Return" she calls back her dagger and Kikyo's lifeless body falls to the ground. Soon Kagome sees her sould leave Kikyo's body and says "Soul that was given to me the day I was born, return to whom you were stolen from, for I am your true home" Kagome's soul recognizes her and soars back into her, knocking her down into Inuyasha.

"Kagome are you alright" Inuyasha asks
"Yeah, just having your soul return to you, really packs a punch" she says rubbing her head "Go, get Kikyo's remains, we'll return her to Kaede before we continue"
"Ok" Inuyasha says going to gather Kikyo's body

Kagome and Inuyasha walks back to the group, explaining how they must return Kikyo's body so she could be buried again. "This time I'll put a barrierr over her. No one will ever use her ashes again" Kagome says as they take off on Kirara. Leaving the others with one extra day on their vacation.
