The Devil You Know by *~*Missy*~*

The day that you and the sun perished

The day you and the sun perished

 

Kagome felt what Naraku was doing and was extremely thankful it sapped some of her power.  She could feel some her control returning, blue sapphires locked with raging oceans of blood and she could not help but pants slightly.  She could feel every facet of his aura and his being.  It was heady and an extreme rush.

The miko had so much power.  It was driving Naraku crazy.  When they locked eyes, he felt a rush go throughout his entire body and a vision passed before his eyes. 

“Inuyasha stop!  I don’t think it’s a good idea to go and face them head on!  We need help with this one!”  It was the miko and she was yelling at the hanyou.  This must be a memory of hers. Naraku thought. 

“Quiet wench!”  He yelled back at her, he could feel the hurt that rocketed through the young miko and found it curious how the hanyou had the ability to make the fearless miko feel this way.

 

The scene fast forwarded and they were on the battle field, explosions were in slow motion and he watched as a bolt of purple energy raced towards the miko, there was no way she would be able to avoid it in time.  Suddenly Inuyasha appeared out of no where and pushed her aside, taking the bolt himself direct to his heart.  He was blasted back and fell to the ground, stone dead. 

 

Inuyasha! He’s dead, he can’t be dead he just can’t!  He heard the miko’s thoughts as if they were his own.  She rushed to him but it was clear there was no life left in him. He’s gone, my sun and my truest friend has perished.  I shall not feel from this moment on.  She thought and then he felt the rage that over took her.  It culminated in blinding pink light and he watched as it wiped over the field and purified all in it’s wake.

The memory ended as he looked at the miko and they broke contact. 

“Was this what happened?”  His voice was curious.

“Yes, things will never be the same.”  Kagome said quietly as she walked off in a random direction leaving a confused and pondering Naraku in her wake.
