Kagome Higurashi quotes from InuYasha

Kagome

"I thought I was a goner. Hey you!! You tried to kill me didn't you!? Well, don't think you can get away with it, Mister!! Here. I think we underestimated it. Don't let me down."

Inuyasha

Hey, uh, how come you're still alive?"

Kagome

I don't know."

Sesshomaru

"The sword. That's what protected you."

"It's true. Those claws of his turned deadly poison. It had to be the sword or she really would have died."

"My theory is that Kagome is mortal. Remember, Tetsusaiga was forged for Inuyasha's father as a way to protect his mortal mother. It was his feelings towards humans that allowed Inuyasha to wield it effectively."

Kagome

"That's right. That's when the sword reacted."

"For someone like Sesshomaru, who could only hate humans, wielding Tetsusaiga was impossible."

Kaede

"That is why his father choose him for his resting place. Perhaps the one who most resembles the father is not Sesshomaru but Inuyasha."

Kagome

"But you said you'd always protect me!!"

Inuyasha

"I didn't mean it like that!! If you'll just shut up for a minute, I'll tell you what a sword like this should really be used for: Stuff like collecting Jewel fragments, and making me more powerful! I sure ain't wasting it on babysitting a helpless little human like you!!"

It's you! You're Inuyasha!

Inuyasha

In the flesh, kid. Now, what's this problem you need help with?

Inuyasha

Hang on tight, kid- it's a long way down.

I guess I wasn't strong enough to pass through the hidden well.

Inuyasha

Lucky for you- because, in my world, there are plenty of monsters who'd just love to have you for lunch.

(shudders) D'you know where to find my sister?

Inuyasha

Sure, I'm not human, remember? I can pick up scents for miles around with this nose.

Kagome cut her hand on some glass-

Inuyasha

Don't have to tell me that- I could smell the blood all the way back at the well. Fear not. I'll rescue Kagome before she gets into any real trouble!

Kagome

(In Sota's flashback, talking about Inuyasha) I'll tell you what he's like- he's whiny, and a showoff, and a total egomaniac!The guy's a complete pain.

(thinking) This can't be the same guy Kagome was telling me about. Sure, his outfit's a bit out of date, but... Inuyasha's the only guy around here I think I can trust!

Kagome

Your hair's gone black!

Inuyasha

If you think you can rely on my strength to save you this time... you'd better think again.

Kagome

Inuyasha, is that you?

Inuyasha

(sarcastically) No, I'm a talking puppet! (Shippo jumps on his head)

Shippo

(inspecting Inuyasha's scalp) His dog-ears are gone!

Kagome

You're not half-demon anymore- you're human!

Inuyasha

You're lucky my fangs and claws are gone! (grabs Shippo and tosses him to the ground)

Kagome

(sharply) Alright, how 'bout telling us what's going on?!

All half-demons, such as Master Inuyasha, are subject to certain times when they lose their supernatural powers as demons.

Kagome

I don't really follow you.

From time to time, half-demons are rendered no stronger than yourself, or any other mere mortal! It's that simple! For him, the time must fall on the night of the new cycle (looks up at the sky) When the moon is dark.

Why, Master?! Why did you not inform us that your period of vulnerability was impending!?

Inuyasha

Because, if I had, you would have taken off a long time ago.

(blusters, then pretends to act wounded)... Have you not a wit of trust in me?!

Inuyasha

Yeah, I trust you to run away when there's trouble!

Kagome

(angrily) Then what, you can't rely on me, either?! If you'd told me that you'd be losing your powers, I never would have insisted we stay in the temple with Nazuna! So much for being able to lean on your close friends!

Inuyasha

I don't trust anybody! Got it?! (Kagome looks startled and hurt) Huh...it has nothing to do with you. It's just the way I've lived, until now. It's the only way I know how to protect myself.

Kagome

Inuyasha, I hear what you're saying. I just wish you'd opened up to me, more- as your friend! (starts to cry)

Inuyasha

(startled) No, wait- I'm the one who's supposed to be down!

Kagome

(tearful and angry) If it weren't for your pride, we wouldn't be in this boat! (points a finger at him) You're gonna pay for this big time, pal!

Shippo

What is it now?

Kagome

(sheepishly) My bag, I forgot it!

Inuyasha

So, get a new one when you go back!

Kagome

(guiltily) Thing is... the Shikon Jewel shards are inside.

Inuyasha

WHAAAAT?!

Inuyasha

(badly poisoned) Kagome... save yourself...

Kagome

No chance!

Inuyasha

I'm serious- it's too late for me!

Kagome

I'm not leaving here without you!

Kagome

The Sacred Jewel shards! They fused inside the demon's body.

Inuyasha

Is that all we have so far? I thought we had a lot more.

Kagome

Hey, It's enough to impress this girl!

Kagome

"What happened here?"

Kaede

"The specter. She desecrated my sister Kikyo's grave site."

Kagome

"This was her tomb?"

Kaede

"Yes. And I was virtually powerless to stop the assault. My sister had unusually strong powers, even for a priestess as she was. Her remains have fallen into the hands of evil. Who knows to what end Kikyo's powers will be exploited. Inuyasha."

Inuyasha

"You're on your own! Apparently you've forgotten that Kikyo betrayed me! I am not so lucky! I can still remember the pain from the arrow she used to pierce my chest!!"

Kaede

Forgive me."

Kagome

"Come on, let's go."

Inuyasha

Where to?"

Kagome

"Come on. Don't you feel a bit sorry for Kikyo? Her grave was violated. I know you were betrayed by her, but that was a long time ago. It's been, at least, fifty years ago since she passed away,"

So you're dressed. Being a priestess is most fitting and flatters your good looks. Now that all you require is a human soul.

Kagome

What are you talking about?

My magical herbal potion shall soon suck the soul from your very body! Kikyo shall have her soul and you will be among the living dead!

Kagome

Kikyo's soul? Then this girl is Kikyo?

Miroku

The Jewel of Four Souls has returned and is now scattered into many, different shards. Even possessing one fragment will gain unimaginable power. I know because Naraku came close to getting the Jewel fifty years ago. In doing so, he slew the priestess protecting it-

Inuyasha

You say he killed a priestess!!?

Miroku

That's right.

Miroku

Calm down. If I had that information I would have slain him long ago myself.

Kagome

If we keep looking for these Jewel fragments, we're sure to run into Naraku sooner or later.

Inuyasha

I've figured you out, Sesshomaru. Because you're a demon, you shouldn't even be able to grasp the Tetsusaiga. That left arm of yours must belong to a human. You're using a shard of the Shikon Jewel to connect the arm to your body! If I can lop off that arm, you'll no longer have what it takes to hold on to the Tetsusaiga! :(charges) And that's not all: when you lose that arm, I'll have myself yet another shard of the Jewel!

Sesshomaru

(charges, smirking) Let's see you try to take this arm away from me.

Inuyasha

(launches another attack) Iron Reaver-!

Shippo

(jumping up and down) You did it! You got through his armor!

Kagome

I was trying to hit the Jewel in his arm. (aims another arrow)

Inuyasha

(stands up) Kagome!

Sesshomaru

Inuyasha, make her stop. Half demon though you are, the blood of a demon runs deep inside you. Be proud of that. Do not accept human aid, even in death.

Inuyasha

Don't try anything, Kagome! Sesshomaru is totally ruthless!

Kagome

I can handle it! I'll hit him! (she fires, but Sesshomaru catches her arrow and dissolves it with his poison claws) What?! It melted in his hand!

Sesshomaru

(angrily, as Tetsusaiga re-activates) You've had your warning. Now I shall put an end to your interference!! (swings Tetsusaiga)

Sesshomaru

(mockingly, as he withdraws his arm) Any last words before your tragic demise?

Inuyasha

(smiles weakly) Your ignorance surprises me... I really thought you would've noticed it by now!

Sesshomaru

Noticed what?

Inuyasha

That the sword is back in MY hands!

Jaken

Master! Without the human arm, you're unable to hold onto the Tetsusaiga!

Kagome

He's weakening!

Jaken

(stepping towards Inuyasha) Lord Sesshomaru, it seems Inuyasha has finally lost consciousness-

Sesshomaru

Do not approach any closer.

Jaken

Huh?

Jaken

AAAAH! (runs back) Wh-what happened?! The sword attacked of its' own accord!

Sesshomaru

(thinking) He holds power over it, despite being unconscious. If I make a move for it... he will strike me down. (turns away) We shall leave, Jaken. The Tetsusaiga is presently beyond my reach, so there's no sense in staying.

Jaken

I won't argue with your decision. After you, Master!

Miroku

They must have given up!

Shippo

That's a lucky break.

Kagome

(runs forward) Inuyasha!

Inuyasha

(thinking) Kagome... You're all right.
