What's so funny?
Let me guess: You were just thinking that, even if Inuyasha were to forgive you, you could never forgive yourself, right? Stop being so self-righteous! You want everyone to think you're so kind and dignified, but I can see your heart is filled with envy and hatred! And still, you continued to play the part and pretend that you actually pity me!
"Pretend?!"
You claim to feel sorry for me: a poor, dead woman brought back to life. But in truth, you grow impatient because Inuyasha cannot bring closure to our relationship! You can say you care, and offer me a helping hand, but you're not fooling me! I know what your true feelings are.
Huh?! What are you talking about?!
Did you think I wouldn't notice?! That I'd blindly cling to your false kindness?!
(furious) Would you just- cut it out already, you idiot?! I let you talk for a minute and this is what I get?! Well, what gives you the right to talk to me like that, huh?! If you and Inuyasha have such a great relationship, then why don't you come out in the open with it?! You're always looking down on me, testing me- but you're actually scared of me, aren't you?!
... Scared of you?
That's right! The thing is... you and Inuyasha have a past together that I could never compete with. I can admit that. But you know what? Since we met, I've spent a lot of time with Inuyasha too- and I bet I've seen sides of Inuyasha that you've never seen! (startled, thinking) I know things about Inuyasha that Kikyo doesn't? That means we're in exactly the same position! (aloud) Understand? I'm just saying, I won't abandon you out of fear or jealousy! I don't need to!
(thinking) What's going on? It was so heavy a moment ago?
You are free to climb up by yourself now. Don't worry, the priestess cannot harm you.
What is it, Kikyo? Why aren't you saying anything?
Wait a minute: it isn't her!
My child, the priestess was but an illusion... one your heart created.
The spiderwebs which entangled you have now been severed. Use that bow to save the priestess.
Help- help! Inuyasha!
Oh? She's escaped. She's free of my web.
So, what will you do, Naraku?
Isn't it obvious? I will take Kikyo's life... as I originally planned.
