                                                   .:First Kiss:. Part VIII

The girl stood with a fist to her heart as she gazed in disbelief.

“Kagome…” She whispered.

The taijiya dropped the basket she was holding and ran toward her dear sister, tripping only once on the dirt road in her geta sandals. She held out her arms as she drew near to the two. She embraced the girl lifting her up off the ground. The two giggled like two schoolgirls as Sango sat Kagome back down. The girl looked deep into the miko’s eyes and studied her. “Jeez Kagome… make me look bad, why dontcha… you still look like a teenager!”
The two girls stood in silence; Kagome with a frown and Sango with knitted eyebrows. Soon they began to chuckle under their breaths and soon erupted into laughter. Sango embraced Kagome again and they both giggled.

“I don’t know how he does it, but InuYasha always seems to be able to bring you home.” She said with a smile. “I wouldn’t believe that you were gone… and it’s really you!”

Sango after letting go of the girl turned to InuYasha. She placed a hand on his shoulder and reached up to leave a kiss on his cheek. “Domo arigato, InuYasha…” The girl said as a tear fell down her cheek dipping into the crease of her smile.

The moushi had made his way toward the group along with Tousueku clinging to his kosode.

“Welcome back, InuYasha.” He said smiling. “Kagome…” He said bowing. “It is good to see you that you are well.”

“Mama- Kagome-sama is not dead?” Tousueku asked tugging on his mother’s Kimono.

“No, Tousueku… Lord InuYasha has brought her back…”

The boy tucked himself behind his mother and looked up at the “dead-risen” woman before him.
InuYasha new it was not safe for much longer to be standing out in the opening with his youkai about, but he didn’t want to ruin the reunion.

The moushi noticed his friend’s distress on his face. “InuYasha, is something the matter?”

“Yeah… were not alone…”

“Hm… what do you mean?” Miroku asked.

As the girl’s chitchatted, InuYasha took Miroku away so that Sango would not be frightened.

“Miroku… I’m not InuYasha… exactly…”

The moushi raised a brow and stared at the hanyou. “I don’t think I understand, InuYasha?”

“The hanyou you know from more than twenty years ago stands before you… but the InuYasha that has attacked you in the past is after Kagome…”

“So… what you are saying is that… you have changed InuYasha?”

“No- I mean there’s two of me!”

Moushi raised both brows and itched at his scalp…” How?”
He asked.

“I don’t know fer sure but I’m pretty positive that me-“ The hanyou said pointing at his face. “-Was flung into the future by a sky eating youkai.” He finished making a chomping motion with his mouth.

“InuYasha…?” The moushi asked.

The hanyou’s ears stuck up and he immediately put a hand in front of the moushi’s mouth. He looked up twitching his one ear. “Shit…”

“Miroku, get the women and children and go to Kaede’s village!” He commanded the ex-monk.

Miroku immediately nodded and picked up the small boy and grabbed his wife’s hand. “Kagome follow me and help retrieve the children.”

Kagome blinked and looked over at the hanyou, whose mane blew in the breeze and his chest inflated as he took in a deep breath. Kagome understood what was coming and followed Miroku and grabbed the two girl’s hands and headed for Kaede’s village.

The hanyou stood straight as his eyes scanned the forest. He looked back quickly to see the group completely gone and their scent lingering. “Good…” Suddenly he turned back toward the forest as the screaming youkai lunged at him, taking him down. “Dammit!” The hanyou cursed meeting the dirt and smashing into it.

The youkai landed on his feet as he heaved in breaths. His eyes were black and his muscles bubbled under his skin. “Where is she?” He demanded.

“You’re not getting her!” The hanyou called back wiping blood from his mouth.

The youkai leaped into the air and came crashing down on the hanyou pushing him even dipper into the soil and pushing him back, dragging in the dirt.

The hanyou screamed as his ribs broke.

“Give her to me…” The youkai barked as they came to a stop.

“You can’t have her! Not in this state!” The hanyou roared pushing the youkai off his body.

The youkai rolled on the ground and immediately regained his footing. He snarled at the hanyou as his mane stuck up.

“Where is she?” He asked as though he were to cry.

The hanyou took notice in the youkai’s tone and for a moment saw the weak hearted hanyou from twenty years ago.

Suddenly the youkai punched the hanyou out flinging him back some thirty-feet.

The hanyou grunted as he slammed into the garden. Sango’s vegetation flew and was buried beneath the dirt. The hanyou sat up flinging grass off his arm as he sensed the youkai’s next attack.

The youkai slammed down on the hanyou’s body; knees bent, back on his heel and his arms swung out behind him with the elbows bent downward. He roared into the hanyou’s face flinging spit in his wake. “Tell me!”

“PIPE DOWN!” The hanyou commanded.

“WHY CAN’T I SENSE HER ANYMORE?” The youkai screamed.

“Hm?” The hanyou said, ears swiveling around. “He’s right… I can’t sense her- not even smell a bit of her…”

“What have you done to her?” The youkai demanded. “What have you done with Ka-go-me?”

° ° °

Tousueko cried on his mother’s lap for his left behind trinkets. Sango hushed him gently and rocked back and forth carefully.
Miroku was standing arm around each daughter. Kagome’s back was facing against them.

“Kagome?” Ask Sango gently.

The ex-moushi put out a hand in front of her to silence her. “She needs complete silence Sango…”

“Is she doing what I am thinking she is doing?” The taijiya whispered.

“I am certain—“ The moushi nodded.

Kagome’s eyes were bright pink as her eyes fixated at the opening that had exited away from the battle. Her hair waved in no wind and her mouth was small and strained.

° ° °

“Kagome… you better be okay…” The hanyou thought. InuYasha looked up at the youkai with his nails elongated. “Al’right you son of a bitch!” The hanyou roared knocking the youkai off his body. “Play times over…” The hanyou said wiping his mouth of blood. He then proceeded to tilt his head to crack either side of his neck. “Come and get it!”

The youkai rushed the hanyou with full force meeting the hands of the hanyou, who was pushing back with the same force as they fell into a face-off.

“I will not rely on my youkai blood to stop you.” The hanyou said.

“Is that right… well, you’ll need more than that to kill me!” The youkai answered.

The youkai screamed into the hanyou’s face as he began to break the joining.

InuYasha was pushed back a bit and his feet dragged in the dirt. “Kagome…” He thought gently. “I won’t let you die!” He yelled pushing back even harder.

The youkai strained and his feet began to drag. In attempt to regain back control he dug his long nails into the hanyou’s knuckles.

InuYasha winced, but just pushed even harder.

The youkai had moved some inches and to get some stance he placed a foot behind him to stay up.

The hanyou’s teeth grew large and his claws elongated as a low gurgle came from his throat. A grin fell upon his lips as he could see the struggle in the youkai’s eyes. “Heh…” The hanyou said as ground beneath him cracked underneath his feet and a blast blew the youkai back as InuYasha thrust his arms forward.

The youkai was hurled through the air, and the power of the blast caused his head to whiplash knocking him out. He came crashing into the dirt with a thud; leaving the hanyou in lines of pants and gasps.

The hanyou’s body slumped and his arms drooped. For him the power of the blast, which he had no idea of where it came from, had shattered both his arms.

He thought maybe the blast might of broken the youkai’s neck, but he wasn’t sure.

° ° °

Kagome’s eyes went pale as they strained to stay open, but it had been so long since she had had a quenching blink.

Miroku stood close by, watching, waiting for her next move.

Suddenly Kagome fell to her knees in the dirt.

“Kagome!” The ex-moushi called out.

° ° °

InuYasha’s ears swiveled behind him and his nose fell as if at had been opened, when the scent of Kagome came rushing in. “Kagome?”

From ahead, the crashed youkai had made an indent in the ground. His body was covered with rocks and dirt.

Suddenly InuYasha’s ears swiveled to the front of him as a rock tumbled down and an arm reached up. “Fuck!” The hanyou cursed.

From the debris emerged the youkai, skin bubbling and muscles pulsating. His eyes dripped black and his fangs took over his lips. His claws were as long as his fingers and they curved in a little like an anaconda’s teeth.

His mouth dripped saliva and he heaved in breaths. He raised a hand and like the sound of a sword on sword, brushed his claws together of the middle and pointing finger, showing how sharp they were.

“Shit…” The hanyou cursed. “What now?”

“Kagome… I’m coming for you…” The youkai said, as he made ready to leap into the air.

But in his attempt to go after the now noticeable girl, InuYasha stepped in front of him with defense. He used his armless body to guard off the youkai’s attempt to get at Kagome.

“Don’t even think about it…” The hanyou said as the youkai roared.

° ° °

“Kagome, are you all right?” Asked Sango still holding her son.

Kagome lay near by with Miroku tending to her.

The monk had certainly changed, no attempts at fondling Kagome, even in her current state.

“Kagome?... Kagome?” The moushi said shaking her, but the girl would not wake.

Kagome was somewhere else. Again she was in the warm light place where she conversed with Kaede.

“Child, you must go to InuYasha. His arms are useless and only you can help him.”

“What? What happened to InuYasha?” The girl asked.

“He is fighting the Inu-Youkai, and loosing. You must go and show him how I showed you in ending all this.”

“Yes… but what if he doesn’t believe me, and won’t let me?”

“The hanyou may be stubborn but he loves you… it is up to you…”

“Thank you Kaede… Thank you for protecting us for that long…”

“Ne, child it was all you…”

° ° °

InuYasha gritted his teeth as he pushed back the youkai.

“Let me see her!” The youkai said wildly.

“Not a chance!” The hanyou replied.

The youkai leaped back with his hands at his side. He began to chuckle as he looked up at InuYasha. “Get out of my way…”

“NO!” The hanyou roared.

The youkai’s grin turned into a frown, as he made ready for his attack.

“What ever he throws at me… I’ll know how to defend it.” The hanyou said to himself.

“Fool…” The youkai said raising his head. “DIE!”

The youkai rubbed his hands together and a burst of fire spewed forth. He drew in a large breath sucking in the flame. “Doukoku kaji!” The youkai called out exhaling the flame a hundred times bigger across the field, almost scorching the hanyou.

InuYasha leaped just as the fire was about to burn him alive. “What the hell?” He called as he landed.

The youkai swung another burst of flames at the hanyou nicking his arm.

“Fuck! My fire rat doesn’t protect against this flame” The hanyou called out at his scorched arm. “What is that?” He called out.

“Another feature I obtained from Naraku!” The youkai answered spewing another burst at the hanyou.

The hanyou leaped trying to dodge it, but the youkai quickly spewed another and it came crashing on top of the hanyou.

Everything went silent, only the sound of the ground engulfed in flames.

The youkai chuckled beneath his breath, as he smelled the stench of burning flesh.

“InuYasha!” A voice called out from the flames.

The youkai stopped and jerked his head forward and then he let out a gasp as the silhouette of a woman appeared in the burning wall.

“Kagome!... NO!” He called out thinking she was burning as well.

He leaped swinging his claws to blow away the flames. At first he could not locate his love.

“Kagome!” He called

As the flames subsided it seemed that his beloved had burned to ashes.

But there standing with her arms out wide and the hanyou behind her in complete astonishment, was the miko glowing bright pink unscathed by the fire.

Kagome turned her head towards the hanyou behind her and commanded. “InuYasha! Give me your soul!”

“WHAT THE FUCK?” He asked, eyes a wide.

She turned and came closer to him. He stepped back in fear of what she meant.

The girl reached toward him putting her hand to his chest. “InuYasha… I need you to agree that you give me permission to “burrow” your soul.” The girl said in a kind soft voice.

“No way!” The hanyou said.

“InuYasha! Trust me!” The girl commanded.

The hanyou stood straight and his mane stuck up on the back of his neck. “Kagome… I-“

“What is this?” The youkai asked with a stern tone.

“Kagome… I give you permission!” The hanyou said looking her in the eyes.

“Good” She said as she reached through the hinezumi and through his skin.

The hanyou turned white as he saw the hand enter his body. “HOLY FUCK!”

Kagome blushed as she felt around for his soul. “Ah jeez… Kaede didn’t say it would be this hard to find it.” She thought.

Suddenly the hanyou’s eyes engulfed his face as Kagome made contact with his soul. “Got it!” She announced, pulled it out carefully along with a string still connected to InuYasha.

The miko then proceeded to reach into herself and found her soul quite quickly, only taking out a small piece.

As soon as InuYasha regained his face he looked down at the two souls. “Is that… Is that Kikyou’s piece?”

“M-hm…” Kagome answered.
Suddenly a gust of wind bombarded them and swirled around them. Orbs of light floated downward as the pink presence surrounded them.

“Kikyou…” The hanyou quietly said.

“M-hm…” The girl said reaching up to pluck the rest of the dead miko’s soul.

“InuYasha…” The warm voice of Kikyou came forth.

“Kikyou”

“Its good to see you” She said in a sleepy voice. “Kagome… I understand why you are here…”

“So, you're willing to help?” The girl asked with a smile.

“Of course… it was wrong of me to take you soul when you died so long ago.” The miko said in a gracious tone.

“Good!” The girl said.

Kagome then proceeded to piece the two pieced together so that they became whole.

“Kagome… what’s happening?” The hanyou asked.

But it was Kikyou to answer. “InuYasha… After Kagome died twenty years ago, I was still bitter from the way I had to depart. With my abilities I was able to obtain Kagome’s soul. I was planning on using it to come back to you, but after I had seen the love that it held for you… I knew I was not meant to come back… Not to make your heart break even more. My bitterness vanished and I was able to care for the soul. I was afraid that you would try to bring Kagome back as a clay doll like me, so I held on to the soul, but it was for your best. I did not want you to be tormented any longer. Kagome was not to return as a cold figure as I was… Please forgive my, InuYasha…” The miko said bowing her head as a tear fell down her cheek.

“I forgive you Kikyou… and I understand…”

The miko looked up as more tears fell. “Ma-maro, InuYasha… Bless you!”

“Kagome… here is your pure soul.” The miko said holding it out to the girl.”

The girl took it in her hands and immediately blushed. “Its so warm…”

“What did you expect… it is your soul.” The miko said smiling. She then leaned down and kissed InuYasha’s soul, which caused him to jump and blush.

“I will watch over you… as you live out your days together… and know that I am always with you… good-bye Kagome, good-bye InuYasha…” Suddenly Kikyou faded into the mist and the pink around them faded.

“She’s gone…” The hanyou said.

“Nope… she’s still here.” The girl said looking up.

“Uh… Kagome… Why did you need my soul?” The hanyou asked pointing at it.

“InuYasha… do you trust me?” The girl asked.

“… Yes”

Suddenly the girl put the two souls together and the pink surrounding them turned purple.

“KAGOME!” The hanyou called out as the blast submerged everything.

When it finally faded InuYasha was glowing white as Kagome fell to the ground.

InuYasha immediately went to her side. “Kagome!”

“InuYasha… I give you my soul… it is now time-- to go home.”

“What Kagome… why did you do that!”

“Look…” The girl said pointing at the youkai across the field.

The youkai’s legs quivered as he took a step back. He threw back his head as the voice of Naraku came forth. “DAMN YOU HALF BREED! NO!”

Light blasted from the youkai eyes and mouth as light burst through his youkai shell. “KAGOME!” He called out as the light engulfed the three.

Ooooo cliffhanger!!
