Chapter Twelve:
Kagome blocked the sword strike, raised the sword and slammed her knee into Bankotsu's gut.
He exhaled to absorb the blow and smirked. "That's more like it." He nodded for her to toss the sword away. In unison they tossed the swords to the ground and flew at each other with kicks, punches, and knees flying everywhere. They blocked or countered each others' blows.
Bankotsu held up his hand signaling to stop. They grinned at each other.
Bankotsu wrapped his arms around her waist and flipped her over his shoulders. "She squealed and laughed before driving her knee into his gut and flipping off his shoulder.
Bankotsu chuckled. "You're just about ready." He picked her up over his shoulder and ran over to the river dumping her into it.
She kicked to the surface and spat out water, glaring at him. "What was that for?"
He snickered. "You looked like you needed to cool off."
She climbed out of the water and rang the hem of her shirt out.
Bankotsu's smirk widened as he saw her temper in her eyes. Bankotsu crooked his finger in a 'come here' motion.
She blinked. "Eh?" Still scowling she walked over to him. Her eyes widened when his hands gripped her hips.
"You look hot as hell when you have that little angry glint in your eyes." Before she could respond his mouth was on hers and his tongue danced with hers.
She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and kissed him back. When they pulled back both were panting for breath.
Bankotsu turned around and jogged over to clean up their weapons.
Kagome blinked and followed him fanning her face from the kiss.
Bankotsu placed the weapons back into the storage room. "When we leave here, I'll get you some real weapons."
She grinned. "Does this mean we're done training?"
Bankotsu nodded. "We will leave in a couple days, so make sure you have your stuff ready. Always travel light."
She nodded and hugged him. "Thanks for teaching me."
He chuckled. "Someone had too, besides now I know you can handle yourself in battle."
She grinned. "Still, I'm glad it was you who trained me."
His went to her hips and he pulled her body flush against his. He stared into her eyes. "Me too." One hand gently stroked her cheek. "You've come a long way Kags."
She smiled. "All thanks to you." She kissed his lips. He opened his mouth and her tongue slipped inside. His hand moved from her cheek to fist in her hair as he deepened the kiss. She kissed him back matching his ardor.
A voice cleared loudly causing them to startle and jump back. A ghost stood there grinning. "I'm glad to see you two are getting along."
Kagome gasped. "Midoriko..?"
Bankotsu's eyes narrowed on the apparition. "So you're the one who created the sacred jewel, eh?" He moved his body between Kagome and the ghost.
Midoriko nodded. "I'm also the one who completely erased your trail so Inuyasha and the others couldn't find you two. I knew you would need time together."
Kagome and Bankotsu's eyes widened.
Midoriko focused her gaze on Bankotsu. "I'm the one who brought you back to life as flesh and blood."
He blinked. "Why?"
"Because I foresaw what Inuyasha would do and I didn't want my descendent to face the world alone."
Bankotsu blinked. "So you're the mastermind behind all of this?"
Midoriko stared directly into his eyes. "I'm the one who gave you a second chance at life."
With confusion written all over her face Kagome stood beside Bankotsu and faced Midoriko. "Did you say that I'm your descendent?"
Midoriko and smiled at the girl's shocked face. "Don't look so surprised."
Kagome blinked.
Bankotsu stared at the ghost. "Why are you here now?"
"Direct as ever."
Bankotsu snorted and planted his feet shoulder width apart. He crossed his arms over his chest and raised his chin. "Just answer the question."
Midoriko held up her hand and waved it toward Kagome chanting in a language so old that even Bankotsu didn't recognize it.
Kagome gasped as an ethereal bow and quiver holding a single arrow appeared in her hands. "Only use this when you two face Naraku for the final showdown."
Kagome gasped as she felt the power emanating from her gift.
Midoriko smiled. "When you use the arrow a new one will appear in its place. But remember these arrows are meant only to help you two destroy Naraku."
She waved her hands towards Bankotsu and chanted. His eyes widened as Banryu took on an ethereal glow. He felt power coursing through his weapon and smirked.
Midoriko smiled at him. "You are the fiercest warrior I have seen in a very long time. I have imbued your weapon with more power than you have ever seen in all your lives, but it will only reveal itself when you two face Naraku. Use it well."
Bankotsu smirked. "You bet I will."
Midoriko nodded and floated across the ground. She kissed Kagome's forehead. "Be happy child."
Kagome felt power pouring into her body and soul.
Midoriko pulled back and smiled at them. "Both of you will play large roles in everyone's lives." With that she vanished as if she had never been there.
Bankotsu blinked and then frowned. "I wonder what she meant by that last line?"
Kagome shrugged. "I'm not really sure." She stared down at the bow and blinked.
XOXOXO:
Inuyasha jumped off the ground and rubbed his nose growling. "Damnit, what is going on here? We were only a day or two behind them according to the villagers." He paced back and forth.
Miroku shrugged. "It's as if they completely vanished into thin air or something. No one we've talked to has seen them since that village."
Kikyo stared at her irate hanyou. "I feel as if someone or something has conspired against us and is trying to keep us away from them. Even my spiritual powers aren't helping us. "
Inuyasha grunted and continued pacing. "They couldn't have vanished, not for this damned long."
Sango shook her head. "I don't get it either. Inuyasha or at least Kirara should have been able to scent them by now." She stared up at the rising sun. 'Where are you Kagome?'
Miroku nodded and placed the fish on sticks over the small fire. "Let's eat first and then we can keep looking."
Inuyasha huffed. "Make it last monk, because we aren't stopping until sun set. We will keep crossing the lands and searching from the skies."
Miroku nodded and passed out bowls of fruit and nuts. "Here Sango, eat up since I get the feeling we won't be eating again until dinner."
She nodded and took the bowl. "Thanks Miroku."
Shippo sat down and ate, staring at the sky. 'I miss you Kagome.'
Kikyo watched the group with emotionless eyes and stared at the rising sun.
Inuyasha continued pacing and his jaw tightened.
