"InuYasha I didn't mean it."

They were arguing, InuYasha said that they should start traveling again and Kagome said no. She didn't think that it was a good idea since they all just got were finally healed and they needed time to get back all their strength. Sango had no problem in continuing, but Miroku did and Kagome was able to persuade Sango to rethink her answer. Shippo agreed too, so that left only InuYasha who wanted to get going.

You see InuYasha as always healed way before any of them and he wanted to get going right when they were better. It gets boring when all you have to entertain your self is Shippo and Kaede. So when he said that they should get going and look for more shards, Kagome blew up and said that he was being unreasonable and that even though he was healed the rest of them weren't. And something along the lines of that his behaviour towards Shippo was extremely rude and that he was obsessed with finding the jewel shards.

At those words, and the accusations that Kagome was throwing at him, he blew up.

/How dare you say that my behaviour is unacceptable. So condescending unnecessarily critical. I have the tendency of getting very physical. So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle/

"You think that if it weren't so obsessed we wouldn't be here. Is that it?" InuYasha yelled. Sure maybe it was his fault that he made them fight a demon when they were already wounded. But if they didn't, they all would be dead right about now.
"Quit telling me what I'm thinking when you don't have a clue." Retorted Kagome.
"Well excuse me." He shouted as he raised his arms in emphasis.

/You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here. This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear. You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone. Not fit to funkin' tread the ground that I'm walking on/

"If you allowed some one to know what you were thinking I don't think we'd fight as often." InuYasha muttered.
"What some one like you?" she snarled at him.
"Well, ya! If not me then who?"
"You want me to tell you what I'm thinking? Oh you wish." Kagome said as she rolled her eyes.
"Oh I wish! What about you! It'll probably help in this so called relationship."
She glared at him
"I'm right and you know it." He mocked grinned.

/When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love. You'll understand what I mean when I say. There's no way we're gonna give up. And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe/

Kagome screamed in anger.
"You're just helping me so you can turn into a full demon." She blurted.

InuYasha stood there shocked, but soon shot back his own remark, "You're just doing this because you screwed up and want to fix everything."

"That's sooo not true." She wined.

"Ha!" he rolled his eyes. "You're worse than me."

/What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head. You should know better you never listened to what I've said. Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat. Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did./

"I don't know why I even bother coming back here!" Kagome spat.

"Then don't come back!" he answered for her.

"You don't mean that!"

"Leave." He said seriously.

Kagome's face grew red with anger and she yelled, "Sit!"

"You bit-" InuYasha shouted as he was sent head first into the ground.
Sango and Miroku came running out of a hut, when they heard yelling and cursing coming from where InuYasha and Kagome were.

"What's going on?" Sango asked as she saw InuYasha in the ground.

"He's being difficult!" Kagome wined as she pointed to the sprawled InuYasha.

When the spell was lifted InuYasha raised himself from the ground, stood up and glared at Kagome.

"Will you two please argue somewhere else? The villagers think they're being attacked." Sango said with annoyance.

"Fine." InuYasha growled as he moved away from the village and more to the well.

"Hey! InuYasha! I'm not done talking to you!" Kagome called after him.

"Ya well I'm done listening!" he called over his shoulder.

/When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love. You'll understand what I mean when I say. There's no way we're gonna give up. And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe./

"What are you to afraid to listen to me?" she asked as they made their way to the well.

"I'm not afraid of anything. Especially a little girl like you!" he turned and snarled at her.

"You are too! You're too afraid to do anything. You wont even kill her. When all she does is try to kill you. I won't leave! I'll get the shards all on my own!"

"Why do you bring her into the conversation? Is that all you can fight me about? Ha! I'm afraid! Look in the mirror! You're afraid that a dead person will steal me away from you. Well guess what. She's dead to me Kagome. I'm the one who looks death in the face every time we have to fight a demon! I'm the one always getting hurt! I'm afraid!" he pointed to himself to emphasize 'I'.

"Get real. You want to find the shards on your own, then go. But you'd die in the first ten seconds when you'd come across a demon. You cant do anything!" he spat out. He was right he knew that she knew it. He was right about everything that he said.

/Does it kill. Does it burn. Is it painful to learn. That it's me that has all the control./

"I can smell how scared you get when we fight a demon. The only time you feel safe is when you're safe in my arms clutching my kimono, crying. So what would you do if I left you? You think you're in control, your not. You may have the beads, but in the end, I'm the one holding all the shots." InuYasha continued as he started to drive her to the well.

/Does it thrill. Does it sting. When you feel what I bring. And you wish that you had me to hold./

"I wouldn't be scared. It would be a challenge." She shot back at him.

"You wouldn't have me to save you when you get hurt. You wouldn't have me hold when you thought you would've died if I didn't save you."

"Tell me InuYasha… why would you want the only one who can see the shards leave and wont kill you but actually like – no love- you in the process?" she tried a different approach.

"I wouldn't, you'd drive me mad or I'd probably get killed by a demon trying to get you a shard. As for you loving me. You don't love me, you just love the fact that you can make me dive into the ground."

"You'd have no one to talk to. No one to return your feelings."

"Right- back – at – ya."

"With out me InuYasha, you'd be a cast out with no one to talk to."

"I've lived my entire life not talking to anyone."

"Who would stay up with you when it's your human night?"

"I have my own people."

"Your own people? What people? You have no one! You're a lowly half-demon!"

Those word cut threw him more than anything; he shook his head and looked at her with malice. "And you Kagome, are a spoiled little brat who thinks all the men in this world should fall to your feet."

/When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love. You'll understand what I mean when I say. There's no way we're gonna give up. And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe. Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe./

"Get out of this time Kagome. You're not needed anymore." He said softy but with force.

"You don't mean that!" she cried desperately.

"I think this lowly half demon means what he says." He looked away, he couldn't even allow himself to look at her.

"Please…" she begged, she went to take hold of his arm but he moved it out of her reach.

"You crossed the line to many times. And know you are paying for it." He growled.

"Please InuYasha…I didn't mean it."

"Don't lie to me human. I can tell you're lying by your scent. The way you cant even look me in the eye." He snarled looking her in the eye.

"I'm not lying! I really am sorry! …sorry that you wont stay human for me." she mumbled the last part to herself, not really meaning for him to hear.

"WHAT! Oh HELL NO! You just act like her! Damn! You say that you don't and aren't like her, but you're your own person. Damn it Kagome! I'll be glad when you go home and stay there."

"I-I didn't mean it!"

"Oh no. You did. Get outta here. Or better yet. Why don't I do you the favour." He picked her up and threw her down the well then took out Tetsusaiga and destroyed it.

He stood there looking at the destroyed well, the rosary around his neck feel to pieces and landed on the ground. He looked at them in amusement. That's all it took to get them off, why didn't he think about it sooner? He stood there for a moment longer than he started to walk away.

But no more than a few steps did the young hanyou feel a wave of pain rush through him like he was standing in water. He doubled over in pain, he tried to cry out but it hurt so much that nothing came out.

"Ah…what's…happen-ah!" he struggled out.
The pain forced him to his knees.
"What's happening?"
He wrapped his arms around himself; feeling like his stomach was about to explode. Then he remembered this pain. It had happened to him before.
"This…is the…ahh…n-n-not again…AH!" tears brimmed his eyes.
He went on all fours from the force of the pain.
"P-p-pl-please not again. Not again…not with out Ses-"
He passed out.

Is there anyone out there cuz it's gettin harder and harder to breathe…
