Hey, long time not working on my old story. I decided to go with the same plot line, improving on an old one I made, which still isn't finished sighs. But this one definately will. I'm sorry if this sound similar to anything you read before. Please don't get mad at me, honestly I am writing this straight from me. Also for every chapter, including, and after this one I do not own Inuyasha or any characters from it. So here goes...enjoy :)...

Kagome: Kagome rushed through the light airy forest as fast as her legs could carry her. Branches and leaves hit her face scratching her smooth skin as she breathed in heavily, trying to keep her muscles working. Twigs crunched beneath her weight, and all was silent, except for her breathes and pounding heart beats. She realized now that she was running farther away from Kaede's village, and Inuyasha. But she knew she couldn't stop, she was being followed.

She felt her legs turn to jelly as she tripped over a tree root. She landed hard against the compact earth, it jarred her bones, and made breathing nearly impossible. Gasping for breath, her eyes scanned the trees for her pursuer. She quickly pulled herself up against a tree trunk, and remained there trying to breathe. The forest was eerily quiet for such a beautiful day.

Kagome startled as a bird flew up from her right in a mad rush, then a twig snapped. Kagome held her breath in hopes that her assalant wouldn't hear her. Blood filled her ears as her heart pounded harder and harder, until Kagome thought that even her follower could hear. She gasped, and then a twing of a bow string echoed through the forest. The arrow hit Kagome in the heart with a sick thud, and she could feel it pass through, and stick itself deep into the wood behind her. Another arrow followed, this time landing beneath the first into her stomach.

Kagome looked up to the rustling of silk kimono, and dark ebony hair. The face was blurred, but Kagome knew exactly who it was. " Inuyasha is mine," whispered a smooth female voice. Then she was gone along with her soul catchers into the bright airy trees like some wraith. Kagome looked down at her chest, the blood seemed to pour from her wounds, staining her white school uniform a crimson red.

Kagome thought back for a few moments to how this had all fallen into place, her death? No she was going to live, right? She would get up, and find Inuyasha, and he would make everything okay. But she had found it odd that when she had climbed from the old well to find Kikyo in the place Inuyasha usually waited for her. She had thought that he would have greeted her angrily after the harsh argument they had gone through before she had left. Then Kikyo had poised her bow and arrow towards Kagome, and justly missed Kagome's shoulder. She turned to run into the forest, dropping her yellow backpack in the clearing.

Kagome came back into reality, for some odd reason her wound didn't hurt her anymore. She looked down again at the dark stain on her shirt, it was bigger, and soaked heavily. The arrow wood and feathers stuck out at an odd angle. She knew if she pulled it out the blood would flow more heavily, and she would for surely die. But she couldn't stay here, she ahd to find Inuyasha. She had to be in his arms again one last time. In their warmth it didn't matter if the hands of death took her, just one last glimpse of his face, his eyes, and she could pass.

She grasped a hold of the end of the arrow, and gave a short tug. Pain rippled through her body, and she cried out loud. It would have to be a quick harsh pull. Trying against Kagome grasped the wood of the arrow, moving her hands down until she felt the sticky blood of her own shirt. She gritted her teeth, and pulled fast as she could. The arrow came loose with a wet gush of blood, crying in pain she aimed her hand for the second arrow. This time, with practised hands the arrow came loose with only one try, and she slumped forward onto the ground. She could hardly breathe, and the pain made her body spasm for a second. She felt frightened, where was he? Kagome closed her eyes for a second, the darkness seemed to claim her, but for a face, in enternal slumber, looking downward, and the silvery hair of a boy. Inuyasha.

Inuyasha: Inuyasha's nose twitched as the metallic scent of blood filled his nostrils, carried in from the light wind. He dropped his cup of water, it made a smooth trailing line across the wood floor. The splashing water startling the sleeping Shippo into full awake. Sango and Miroku looked up from their cups of tea in shock. Inuyasha looked out the door, his nose sniffing the sweet scent. "No!" he muttered.

"What is it, Inuyasha?" inquired Shippo.

"Naraku?" asked Sango, she motioned for her Hiratsu resting against the wall.

Inuyasha shook his head. "It's Kagome."

"Kagome!" Shippo shouted with glee. He face twisting into a big grin.

Inuyasha jolted up with a worried look in his face. He turned to face the door, standing there motionless. " It couldn't be..." he muttered. The others looked at each other, mistfied by Inuyasha's odd behavior.

"Inuyasha, what is the matter with ye. Ye look as though ye have seen a ghost," exclaimed Kaede.

Inuyasha bolted out the door, scrambling the dishes of food that had been placed out by Kaede. The others looked at each other, and hastly made their exits to follow. Inuyasha rushed through the trees of the forest, following the metallic scent of blood. He felt as though he had never run so fast before in his lifetime, but for some reason he felt like it was already too late. He could hear the others calling his name, as they attempted to follow him in the trees. He looked out to the west, and saw the light of the setting sun, and then to the east with the growing darkness of a new moon night.

Kagome: "Kagome," mutter a familiar boyish voice. Kagome's eyes fluttered opened her eyes to see feet, and a the deep red of kimono. She had little energy left now to lift her own head, but she had been saving her last breath just for him. "Inu-Inuyasha," muttered Kagome, her voice barely audible.

She felt her cooling body lift from the hard earth, and fall gently against a warm body. She opened her eyes slowly to face the silver hair and yellow eyes of a boy. She smiled weakly up at Inuyasha. She could see a pain that was never there before in his eyes, a new pain that seemed to be growing as the minutes passed. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words seemed to come out.

"Kagome...I...I'm sorry," muttered Inuyasha, he placed a hand down onto her wound, and she cringed in pain. He instantly pulled away, ashamed of having hurt her even further. The sounds of Kirara thrashing through the air filled both their ears. Kagome looked back to see Sango, Miroku, and Shippo silent, wide-eyed, and still as they looked upon her condition. She tilted her head towards Inuyasha, and stared into his amber eyes. "Inuyasha, don't be sorry," she finally mumbled.

"Kagome, who did this?" asked Inuyasha.

"That doesn't matter right now," she said, her voice slowing.

Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara drew closer to the two in hopes to gain a last few moments with Kagome. They all knew, but still they didn't want to face the facts.

"Inuyasha, I want to say goodbye," she added.

"No! You can't say goodbye," Inuyasha protested. " You're gunna be okay. You'll get through this, we can take you back to Kaede, and she'll use her medicenes on you."

Kagome felt a tear slip from her eyes, and slide slowly down her cheek. The soft and smooth tear drop fell from Kagome's cheek, and landed onto Inuyasha hands. He felt his heart stop for a moment, and he knew that his words were just denial to the reality before him. He could already hear her eager heartbeat begin to slow down as her body prepared to let go of this world. How many women that I love will leave my life?

Kagome lifted one of her bloodied hands, and rested it on Inuyasha's heart. It stained his red kimono a darker red, almost black. " I will always..." Kagome muttered between struggled breaths. "be here with you. Inuyasha, I...I love..." His eyes looked back and forth between hers, but there was nothing more said. Her lips no longer moved, he heard Shippo give out a wail behind him, but that sound seemed to come from another world. He couldn't hear her breathing, and her heartbeat, she was silent. He touched her smooth eyelids, and closed her eyes for the last time. Then grasping her, he brought her cooling cheek up to his, and wept like he had never before in his life. He wept for a innocent girl who had travel five hundred years in the past, and had befriended a lonely hanyou, and had made him love again. Love her. And he never really said goodbye.
