Love VS Hate

KAGOME'S POINT OF VIEW

I woke up in a strange place. It was white everywhere,absolutely everything was pure white. "Where am I?" As soon as I spoke those words Kikyo appeared and said "WE are inside the very essence of our shared soul. I refuse to die. I shall take back the rest of my soul and let you die in Inuyasha's arms." I looked stunned. "What do you mean 'die in Inuyasha's arms'? What's going on outside my body? Why can you see it but I can't?" I asked totally confused. Kikyo responded by saying "I can see because I WANT to see. What I see is Inuyasha holding your body very close to him and crying yelling at me to let you live your life happily. Also I said 'die in Inuyasha's arms' because I intend to end your life while we're here causing you to die while he is still holding onto you." I looked at her with an emotionless expression that equally matched her own.

I decided I had to focus to win here so I disposed of all my emotions for a while. Only one emotion was left untouched just as she had one untouched emotion. The emotion I kept was love. My love for my family and friends. My love for Shippo,Sango, Miroku, Kirara, Ayame, Kouga, Rin, even Lord Fluffy. But most of all my love for Inuyasha.

Kikyo held pure hatred in her eyes. I then said "Well Kikyo it looks like this is going to be a war of love aka me versus hate aka you. Any last words?" I spoke like Lord Fluffy with a monotone voice to hide any emotions other than the love visible in my eyes. "What do you mean any last words?What makes you think you're going to win?" Kikyo asked her voice now spiked with slight arrogance and annoyance.

"Well everyone knows love over comes all obstacles. Since you are the opposite of love you shall fall. Good-bye Kikyo. I truely hope you can rest in peace without the emotions that held you on Earth. I wish you much luck in the afterlife." She looked pissed now. If I hadn't hid my emotions I would be running for the hills screaming scared out of my mind. I thought it was scary enough that she was dead yet living in a body made of dirt,bones, and ashes. Now she's terrifying with that scowl on her face. As a response to that look I said "Kikyo I will not back down. Inuyasha is waiting for me."

KIKYO'S POINT OF VIEW

'THAT ARROGANT LITTLE BITCH!WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS!?oh wait..she's acting just like Inuyasha, guess she's been around him so much that he rubbed off on her..hmmmm i wonder how far their relationship has come since they first met. I know I saw them kiss but still I do not know if it was because of the moment or not.Oh well!I'll just find out after I kill her.' Then I looked up and came face to face with myself. I noticed one difference, this me had loving eyes not spiteful or hateful.

Then something clicked 'It must be Kagome.' "So Kagome, are you ready to fight?" I asked confidently trying to hide my shock and slight fear. "You betcha" Was her soft reply. 'What in the seven Hells does betcha mean?hmmmmm...I think it must mean yes but I can't be sure...I know I'll use my soul collectors to find out.WAIT. I can't use them without my fake body.Oh well'

"Prepare to DIE Kagome!" I yelled as I lunged then the image changed to Kaede. I froze instantly. "Sister Kikyo, please do not do this to lady Kagome.Also I fear you will lose your small piece of the soul left to take you to the afterlife if you fight her. I know ye is strong but lady Kagome has proven herself to be stronger. Please sister Kikyo just give up the large portion of your soul to her." "Traitor."I hissed as I attempted to kill Kaede. Just when I was about to slit her throat the image dissapeared and I was left all alone in the white abyss.

KAGOME'S POINT OF VIEW

I saw Kikyo going from sad to mad to interested and alot of different emotions infront of my eyes. Then I noticed my clothes change into a traditional priestess' kimono just like Kikyo's. My hair was even pulled back the same way. Then Kikyo's image faded into one of Sango. She looked lost and confused until I yelled "SANGO!"I ran right into her arms and we shared a loving sisterly hug. "Kagome what's going on? and where am I?" I took a deep breath and told her everything. She nodded her head in understanding and said "How do we get out?" I honestly didn't know so I said "I don't know.I don't even know how I got here. I think Kikyo brought me here but I think we are speaking with our loved ones now. I heard Kaede saying something so I assume Kaede is the only one who still loves Kikyo." Sango nodded then started to fade

"SANGO!"I screamed while pulling her into a hug to try and stop the fading process. "KAGOME!"She screamed as she clung to me as well. Then she was gone. Then I felt something on my ass and whipped around while yelling "MIROKU YOU PERV!"and slapping said pervert. "Lady Kagome I was just worried after all Sango suddenly went into a state like yours then came back just when I faded into this state. I noticed we are in the essence of your soul. I'm also guessing Kikyo is here as well but was speaking with Kaede and is now alone. Am I correct?" He finished up while holding his hands up in a defensive position until he was sure I wouldn't hit him again.

"You are very much correct but what is going on with talking to people that love us?It makes no sense to me." "Lady Kagome this is typical with your kind of situation this is the time when you are supposed to say your good-byes just in case you are the one who loses your soul.Don't worry though me and the others won't let you lose that easily. Just do your best and know that we will be waiting for your return." Miroku said as he smiled and hugged me. I hugged him back and saw him starting to fade. We both said good-bye then Shippo came into view.

"Hey shippo." I said while smiling at my adopted son. "KAGOME!"He screamed excitedly while jumping into my arms. We just stood there hugging for a while then parted. "Shippo, this is my soul we're in got it?and right now I'm supposed to tell everyone good-bye just in case I don't survive got it?Now I want you to remember that I love you no matter what got it?" He nodded his head with each question."Good boy now come here."I said while holding my arms out again. He jumped into them and cried when he started to fade. He really didn't want to leave me.

'I wonder who's going to be next' Just then Kaede came into view. "KAEDE!"I yelled as I hugged the elderly woman. "What are you doing here? I thought you were with Kikyo." She responded by saying "Ai, I was with sister Kikyo until she tried to kill me. Luckily I faded just in time. I do not know if Inuyasha has feelings for my sister anymore so I don't know if she is still alone.You shall find out soon enough Kagome." With that said she bowed and faded away into nothing.

Next was Kouga followed by Ayame and Rin. After them was Jinenji and amazingly Lord Fluffy,not to mention Kohaku,too bad Sango wasn't still here she would've been so happy to see him. I was amazed when mom,gramps,Souta,Ayumi,Yuka,Eri,and even Hojo all showed up too. I still haven't seen the person I want to see most though. Then finally after sitting alone for a good hour I went to sleep.

INUYASHA'S POINT OF VIEW

I heard what everyone said about where the place is and what happens when you get there but I didn't expect it to be so pure and white. Then again Kagome is totally pure so her soul should be too. Everyone said Kagome greeted them right away though and I wasn't recieving a greeting. Then I noticed her asleep a little ways away from me. "Hmmm I guess it's been a while since her last visitor and she was tired so she went to sleep. Too bad I wanted to talk to her too." Just as I finished saying that she started to wake up. Her beautiful brown eyes fluttered open and I could tell she was half asleep so she was figuring out who I was and what was going on.

As soon as she realized she shot up straight and jumped on me tackling me to the ground in a hug. I could tell by looking in her eyes that I'm the one person she'd been waiting to see. "Hey Kagome"I said while smiling down at her. 'God she's beautiful' She soon replied by saying "Hey yourself and aww thank you" She was looking at me with admiration and love shining brightly in her eyes. I leaned down and kissed her before asking "What do you mean 'aww thank you'" Her response shocked me. "For some reason while I'm here I can hear people's thoughts even if I try and ignore then I can't. It's been getting really annoying. Especially with Rin, that little girls mind goes faster than her words it's actually quite amazing."

"Ok then tell me what I'm thinking right now." Was my cocky yet thoughtfully sweet remark. 'I love you Kagome, I love you so damn much.Please tell me you'll stay in this era when you wake up.' "Awwww Inuyasha I love you too and I promise I'll stay but on one condition. You have to seal the deal and to do that you'll have to seal it with a kiss." Was her witty and sweet comeback. I leaned down and kissed her lightly although that kiss was gentle it was filled with my love for her. Then the thing we both feared happened. I started to fade. "KAGOME!"I shouted reaching out and embracing her hoping that I wouldn't have to leave her. "INUYASHA!"She screamed and returned my embrace. We stood there nice and solid. Amazingly the fading process went in reverse and allowed me to stay but then Kikyo became visible to Kagome again but neither of us let go.

KAGOME'S POINT OF VIEW

When Kikyo came back I swear that was so screwed up that she needed to be put in a sych ward for the rest of her life. She was sitting there her hair looked like a 1yr old did it, her clothes weren't on properly, and she was sitting talking to one of her arrows and her eyes looked totally distant and I could instantly tell she was scitzofrenic(SP?) now. I wonder what made her like that in that short bit of time. I held Inuyasha tighter and he did the same when we saw Kikyo stand up and start walking towards us.
