Chapter Six: Undead miko and a Dark scheme…
"Ten young women's spirits was all I could get from this pitiful excuse for a village." Kikyo said, as her dragon like youkais floated around her undead body. She glared at something in the forest. "Come out, Naraku you bastard." "Kukukuku, it's so nice to see you Kikyo." Naraku said giving the undead miko a mock bow as he came out of the shadows of the forest. Kikyo sighed in annoyance. "What do you want Naraku?" "Why Kikyo, you say that like I am up to something." Naraku said failing completely to hide the dark and twisted smile tugging at his lips. "But you are up to something so spit it out before I get mad." Kikyo huffed.
"Very well, I have been watching Kana's mirror and I think that our little Inuyasha has decide to take Kagome as his mate and, asked her to marry him." Naraku said watching the miko before him. Kikyo's breath caught. He wants that child for his mate!? He's going to betray me with that girl? A mere shadow of myself! My so called reincarnation, that little weakling Kagome!? How dare him! I will kill them both for this! The undead miko thought darkly and a dark aurora of rage swirled around her as her face contorted with anger. "I will take him to hell and kill that little bitch!" she hissed through clenched teeth and Naraku smirked in satisfaction.
Kikyo sat very still and suddenly became so silent it seemed she didn't breathe. Naraku put a hand on her shoulder. "My poor, poor little miko, that Inuyasha has betrayed you yet again. He told you he loved you yet look at what he is doing! Take revenge Kikyo." Naraku whispered watching the miko narrow her eyes. "I will take revenge don't worry about that. But to do so we must let them gain a false sense of security. They are approaching a jewel shard, yes?" Naraku nodded as he studied the miko whose eyes held a devilish gleam while her aurora was turning darker than midnight.
"Good, I want you to do me a favor so I can kill them." "What would that favor be Kikyo?" "Send your saimyousho to the place were they shall find the jewel, but do not go there nor send one of your children either." Naraku thought about the miko's idea and suddenly gave a dark smile. "I see, very well. It shall be as you wish." Kikyo nodded in reply and Naraku took his leave. I will have my revenge Inuyasha! She thought silently as she made her way through the woods.
Silently a figure in black robes jumped into the air. Running along the braches the figure made its way towards a palace that was a day's journey but if it kept its current pace it would be their by dawn. The figure had watched and listened to Kikyo and Naraku's plot to most likely destroy Inuyasha and Kagome. I must tell my mistress. She won't be pleased with this information that's for sure but none the less, it may save those two lovers. The figure landed and ran along the dark hard ground, swift like the wind making no sound.
"Who goes there!?" a raspy male voice called into the darkness, it was the dark right before the light of dawn. He was an inu youkai and because of that he sensed the figure in black approaching the palace. The figure's form of reply was to whistle a few notes, two low pitched while three more were so high that only youkai could hear. "I see. Welcome back, friend." The male said signaling that the other youkai guards open the gate, but only enough to let in the trim figure.
"Took you fools long enough." The figure muttered. The voice was unmistakably female. Soft and light yet there was an edge that carried weariness and annoyance. Raising her head high the black clad woman headed deeper into the palace, her steps sure and light, her destination her mistress's quarters.
A light rapping on her bedroom doors made Suaru look up. Ares is back. She thought with a sigh of relief. "Come in." She called softly, not wanting to wake the child sleeping peacefully beside her. The door slid open just enough for the black clad figure to slide in. Giving a slight bow to Suaru who was sitting on the bed that took up a large space in the enormous room, the figure spoke. "I have brought the information you requested, Lady." "I see, thank you, Ares." Suaru replied a small smile coming to her lips.
Standing Suaru gestured towards a door on her right where they could talk more privately. Ares went in followed closely by the now anxious Suaru. Removing her black robes Ares dropped them onto the ground then plopped down on an overstuffed chair. She was very pretty. Lavender colored hair that was pulled into a high pony tail even though it was almost to her knees that way, violet eyes, moonflower skin, tall and thin, with a womanly body despite being only fifteen and a half years old, yet she held the air of a princess. She was actually a good fighter and powerful spell caster.
Suaru sat down across from her and smiled, relaxing at the knowledge that her friend was alright. Ares was a true beauty but even she could not compare to Suaru. Sapphire blue eyes, sakura colored hair that was let down now so that it trailed behind her a foot or so when she walked, moonflower skin that was ever so lightly touched with a creamy golden color but barely, tall and thin, her body was very well developed, and her air was a friendly one yet at the same time it demanded respect even though she was only eighteen and a half.
Ares stared at Suaru for a moment then after a deep breath she told all that she had seen and heard. "And so it's going to get even more dangerous for Kagome and her fellow companions." Ares finished leaning back into the softness of her chair. Suaru sat back, looking at the wall, but her eyes, Ares noticed; were now a dark cloudy gray-blue. Her shoulders slumped and she shivered. "This does not bode well for them." Suaru whispered sounding exhausted. "What doesn't bode well?" Ares asked sitting up very straight, the hairs on her nape were standing on end. "I see a darkness surrounding them. It's cold and sinister. It's most likely Naraku but, I also feel the coldness of what may be the reaper of souls." Suaru said. "Do you know who the reaper comes for?" Ares said going pale.
"No but I also sense they will meet up with Sesshoumaru." "Is that good or bad?" "I do not know. I think that they will band together even if it's for a short time." "Are you speaking with the girl?" Suaru nodded her head and said, "I have been in touch with her. I scared her at first but I think she is beginning to trust me." "That's good." "Perhaps, but I will need to see her soon. I wish no harm to come to her." "You speak of her as though you're the best of friends." Suaru smiled at Ares's remark. "I feel a connection to her. It's strange but she reminds me of myself." Ares look startled. "And how is that?" Suaru shook her head and looked at Ares before she heard a light cry coming from her room.
"M-mama!?" called a small childish voice. Suaru was back in her room and on the bed cuddling the small boy in her arms in a flash. "I'm right here sweetie. Don't worry. I'm here with you." Suaru cooed to the child. The child was a little boy at the age of two and a half years old. He had silver hair, two blood red streaks on each cheek and a waning moon on his fore head, and his eyes were gold. Even though he was young it was evident he would become a handsome or even beautiful man. His face was elegantly long and his skin was purest white. "Mama, when is papa gonna be home?" he asked in his childish voice; looking up at Suaru who smiled gently love lighting her eyes with a soft almost unearthly glow. "I don't know but I promise that he will come back to us, Rath." Satisfied that his mother was right he laid his head against her breast, listening to her heart beat. Ares walked out of the room turning and going to her own chambers as Suaru lay down with Rath, gently humming as they drifted off to sleep.
Kikyo walked silently through the forest gripping her bow almost painfully tight. Her mind was a blurry cloud of anger. Inuyasha, you baka! How dare you do this to me! With that little brat of all people! I will kill you for this. I will kill you both. The thought ran through Kikyo's mind over and over. "Bastard you'll pay and so will your little bitch!" Kikyo said and in her mind flashed pictures of Kagome and Inuyasha together. Kissing, hugging, walking side by side, doing and sharing things only lovers do. With each image the undead miko's anger and jealousy increased and her aurora became darker.
An image of Kagome and Inuyasha kissing flashed into the miko's mind and she lashed out at a nearby tree with her power. The tree, old and strong was a bit charred and had some missing hunks of trunk and bark but other wise withstood Kikyo's anger. Glaring at the tree she failed to notice that Kana was standing behind her. Finally sensing the youkai she turned and glared. "What do you want?" she asked her voice dripping with fury. Kana held up her mirror letting Kikyo see a picture of Kagome sleeping. It was then that Kikyo noticed the red haori covered chest Kagome's head rested on. The view pulled back further allowing the undead woman to see Kagome snuggled up to Inuyasha who had his arms wrapped protectively around the younger miko.
"Chikuso, I've had enough!" roared Kikyo, stalking off to sulk and ponder up a way to kill Kagome and take Inuyasha from her. Kana's face remained emotionless as she walked away to return to Naraku. "Kana has returned." Kagura said to Naraku's back; her voice holding no emotion. Ignoring Kagura completely Naraku got up and went to his chambers, walking past a silent Kana and a failed attempt at hiding a glare Kagura. Bastard, you'll pay for all the shit I've been through. Kagura thought darkly, heading to her own chambers. This game just gets more and more interesting. Naraku thought as he absent mindedly stroked the Shikon shards that he held in his possession. Most interesting indeed.
