Ch. 43
Return of the Shikon no Tama
-------------------------------------------
“Stay strong for me, InuYasha”, Kagome says, holding his hands in her hands.
“Kagome…”, he whispers, his ears twitching.
She brushes a stray hair from his face, ‘Still asleep, but at least his fever broke’, she thinks, smiling as she looks down at his face, ‘The aura surrounding his is so familiar, where have I felt it before?’, she questions in her head.
------------------------------
Hours Later…
Almost Mid-Night…
Kagome sleeps slumped against the wall a few feet from InuYasha’s side, Kirara laying by his head.
Sango and Miroku went back to their hut and Shippo and Kaede went to sleep in another part of the hut.
“InuYasha…”, the strong, yet delicate voice of a woman calls.
He slowly blinks open his gold eyes, “Who’s calling me…?”, he mutters.
His eyes widen in fear when he sees the orb of white mist floating above him.
“I’m not… dead again! Am I?”, he gulps.
The soul laughs, “No, you’re not”, she giggles.
“Then who are you?”, he whispers.
“Perhaps, I should take on my human form”, she says.
The soul’s form sifts to that of a beautiful woman dressed in battle armor.
“You’re…”, he gasps.
“Yes, I am Midoriko”, the spirit bows.
“Why are you here?”, he asks.
“I came to check upon something left in your care”.
“In my care?”
Suddenly, he feels a warmness center just over his heart, he watches in utter amazement as a glowing, pale pink, almost transparent jewel emerges from his chest.
“Just as I thought, it’s completely pure”, she smiles.
“That’s…that’s…”, he stammers, shock visible in his eyes.
“That is correct, this is the Shikon jewel”, she replies, “I should thank you for purifying it, InuYasha”.
“How did it get inside me?”
“It was Karin’s doing while your body was healing from the injuries inflicted on it a year ago”.
“What will you do with the jewel now?”, he questions, “What are you going to do, Midoriko?”
“Since it was you who purified the jewel, how about you use it to make a wish”, Midoriko says.
InuYasha stares at the jewel hovering over his chest, then he turns his head and looks at Kagome asleep against the nearby wall.
A small smile creeps onto his lips, “I don’t have anything I want”, he whispers.
“You sure?”
“I have my life, my mother back, and a fiancée who loves me as much as I love her”, he replies, still looking lovingly at Kagome.
“What about your blood?”
He turns his head back towards Midoriko, “I’m quite happy as a hanyou, I have no desire to become a full human or demon”, he says, still smiling.
“There is a desire you wish, isn’t there?”
InuYasha closes his eyes, “There is one thing”.
“What?”
“My only wish is for you to pass on safely to the afterlife; that your soul will rest in peace, and that the Shikon jewel was gone”, he answers, opening his eyes.
“Such a selfless wish”, Midoriko says, “Your wish shall be granted”, she bows.
The Shikon jewel gives over a blinding burst of white light, when the light fades, the jewel had disappeared.
“Your wish is done”, she states.
“So you’ll be going now?”
“Yes”, she nods.
“Farewell, and rest in peace”, he says.
“Farewell InuYasha”, she bids, starting to fade to nothingness, “You have grown up wonderfully, my reincarnation”, she vanishes.
(A/N: E-mail me if you want my theory on the possibility that InuYasha is Midoriko’s reincarnation!)
“Reincarnation?”, Kagome asks.
InuYasha bolts up and looks at her.
“You’re her reincarnation?”, she questions.
“I don’t really know”, he replies.
“So the jewel is truly gone?”
“Yes, and Midoriko’s soul is at peace”.
She gets up and hugs him across the shoulders from behind, like she did when he needed to be comforted after he had killed those bandits while he was transformed as a full-demon.
“Your wish truly was selfless”, she whispers into his ears, “Also, you’re the most pure-hearted person I know”, she adds.
A blush enflames his cheeks, “Thank you…”.
“It’s true, my love”.

DemonGirl-Setsuna: Well? What did you think? Please review!
Yes, as my inserted Author’s Note says; I have a theory that InuYasha is Midoriko’s reincarnation, I also have a list of examples that leads my theory as proof.
So E-mail me if you want my theory and the list of reasons that can prove my theory!
The next chapter is called; ‘Back to Normal, Or Is It?’.
