There is something that I wish to ask you: Why didn't you kill me that night? It would have been easy enough; given my condition.
I don't play dirty, that's why.
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
It's no use. I'll never be as good as my sister Kikyo.
(Fires another arrow at a tree)
I'm impressed, Kaede.
Kikyo, it's you!
Kaede (Narrating): I wanted Kikyo to look beautiful, and I wanted to do what I could to help her. I thought I was the only one in the world with such thoughts about my sister.
You've improved considerably.
Thanks.
Next is the Arrow of Sealing.
Arrow of Sealing?
That was the Arrow of Sealing. We use it for demons who are utterly invincible. I warn you, though, beware of this tree.
The Sacred Tree?
If you seal demon onto this tree, the demon's body will remain perfectly intact. They will only awaken when the one who shot the arrow desperately wishes for the demon to revive.
Kaede (narrating): At that moment, I felt lonelier than I ever felt before. I wanted my sister to stay with me forever. Never until that moment had I felt so strongly how much I wanted her to stay.
Wouldn't you like to stop fighting?
What do you mean?
Stop fighting all the time? Stop and become human?
Me become a human?
It's possible. It's true that you are half demon but you are also half human. If the Sacred Jewel of the Four Souls fell into the hands of a demon, its powers would drastically increase. However, if it were used to turn you into a human, it would be purified. The Jewel of the Foul Souls would probably cease to exist.
And then what? What would happen to you?
My duty is to protect the Jewel. Without it I could live the life of an ordinary woman.
Inuyasha!! (thinking) I believed in you! I trusted you!
Inuyasha (thinking): I never doubted you. Not for a minute, yet you deceived me.
The Sacred Jewel- It was all because of this. Listen to me, Kaede. Take the Sacred Jewel and burn it with my body. That way it will never fall into the hands of evil again.
(Collapses down, dead)
Kikyo!! Sister Kikyo!
Kaede (narrating): It has been fifty years since Inuyasha was sealed the the Sacred Tree. He looks exactly the same as he did then. Fifty years ago, my sister knew she was going to die. So why did she decide to use the Arrow of Sealing rather than a sacred arrow to destroy him? Why did she seal Inuyasha to the Sacred Tree, a Tree of Ages said to be able to transcend time? And if Inuyasha was filled with hatred toward my sister, who took back the Sacred Jewel and sealed him the Sacred Tree, then why does he wear such a peaceful expression? It seems I understand very little after all. I wonder sometimes if I ever will.
Inuyasha (thinking): Kikyo was killed by Naraku. I didn't actually she her die, and I didn't see her body. Kikyo, if you are still alive, why haven't you come to find me?
Answer me! Are you Kikyo or not!?
KKocho
The demons have ravaged my master's flesh.
AAskua
She has also lost her voice. She fights using her spirit alone. However, soon her strength will run out.
So back then...she didn't die? Kikyo? You are Kikyo! Kikyo!! KIKYO!!
Damn, that Kikyo is elusive, isn't she?
Kagura! Just what is going on!?
I'd like to know that myself.
Is Kikyo alive!?
Naraku seems to think so. You know the arrow that broke through Hakudoshi's shield? There was some dirt left on it that came from Onigumo's cave.
Inuyasha (thinking): Onigumo? Of course! That was the sent from the arrow.
She's the only one can have use for soil from Onigumo's cave. Anyway, it seems we both been wasting our time going after a fake. 'Till next time.
(Leaves off)
Kagura (thinking): Naraku's greatest hindrance is still alive. Now this is getting interesting.
Kikyo. Are you alive or are you...?
KKocho
Her life is fading.
AAskua
The miasma is spreading very rapidly.
Miasma?
AAskua
You must make you decision.
KKocho
Whether or not you will save her.
What do you mean "decision"? I don't get it. What's happening to Kikyo?
AAsuka
After Mount Hakurei was destroyed, she was struck by Naraku's tentacles and fell into a dark river of miasma.
KKocho
But her body was made of sacred soil and ashes from her gave, so the miasma could not dissolve her flesh.
AAsuka
However, the miasma from her wounds spread throughout her body. The would in her chest sill has not healed, and the miasma is eating away at her.
KKocho
There is one who can save her.
AAskua
Only you have the power.
Kagome (thinking): I'm the only one who can save Kikyo?
KKocho
You are her only hope.
AAsuka
You hold her life in your hands.
Kagome (thinking): And you expect me to choose? What do I have to do? What do I do to save her?
AAsuka
Then you choose to save her?
Of course I do! I'm the only one can help her, right!? So I will.
KKocho
All you have to do is touch her.
AAsuka
That will be enough to purify the miasma.
It's Kikyo.
Inuyasha.
How are you feeling, Kikyo? Are you all right now?
I'm sure you heard what happened. Naraku's miasma was consuming my body until it was purified by Kagome.
Yeah, I heard. (thinking) Kikyo. She looks like she's still in pain. She's not completely healed yet.
Inuyasha, you must have noticed this yourself. The barrier around the nest has vanished.
I get it. No wonder I could smell those birds.
Inuyasha, what do think Naraku's trying to accomplish?
He's trying to find a into the border between this world and afterlife in order to get the last Sacred Jewel shard.
So that's why he used the birds to gather human blood. If that's the case, the path to the Netherworld will soon open and Naraku will get the Jewel.
Listen. Naraku's after Kagome's eyes.
You mean her ability to see the Jewel shards. Right.
I'm almost certain that Naraku wants to lure to the border and then use Kagome to locate the last fragment.
(Asuka and Kocho appear, holding her longbow and quiver of arrows)
What are you doing?
I will deal with Naraku.
What?
(Kikyo falls to her knees, prompting Inuyasha to grip her shoulders)
Kikyo, what are you doing? Be careful! You're not fully healed yet!
I know I can do this. My spiritual powers haven't weakened.
Don't be stupid! Naraku will kill you for certain! You know better than that. Naraku wants you dead, that hasn't changed. Listen, Kikyo. I messed up, big-time. When you were attacked at Mt. Hakurei, I wasn't able to protect you. I refuse to give Naraku a third chance to take your life! I never wanna go through that again.
I'll only be a burden to. Is that what you mean?
Please, Kikyo! I'm begging you! Please, just stay here and wait for me. Please Kikyo.
The arrows.
(Kocho takes an arrow out a quiver)
Take this with you. Please, give this arrow to Kagome. Only Kagome herself will be able to determine whether or not she will be able to use it.
