I don't own InuYasha
Unknown Memories - Chapter 1 - InuYasha's Death
"Inu-Yasha, look out!"
Kagome called out to him. Inu-Yasha turned around just in time to swipe out at the oncoming demon.
"Thanks, Kagome!"
"Inu-Yasha, help!"
"Kagome, I can't keep saving you all the- Kikyo!"
As Inu-Yasha turned around he saw instead of Kagome, Kikyo in the jaws of the monster.
"Hold on Kikyo, I'll come save you!"
Inu-Yasha battered through demons left and right, trying to reach Kikyo.
"Kikyo! I'm coming!"
Kagome was confused what was Inu-Yasha going after? Kikyo was leaning against a tree, but Inu-Yasha was heading towards the demons mouth!
"Kikyo! Stop this at once! Can't you see that Inu-Yasha cares for you? Why are you tricking him into risking his life?"
Kikyo turned away from the battle and faced Kagome with a smirk on his face.
"You forget, even if it wasn't Inu-Yasha who killed me, my murderer was an exact look alike. I am merely using this weakness he calls love against him, in order set my spirit at rest. And now, since you obviously know that the Kikyo out there is just an illusion, I must take care so that you may not interfere or warn him in any way."
Much like the time when Kikyo attempted to suck Inu-Yasha into Hell with her, Kikyo placed two fingers on Kagome forehead and paralyzed her. Kikyo smirked.
"You will not interfere."
As Inu-Yasha neared the giant demon's mouth, Kikyo disappeared.
"Huh? Dammit! It was an illusion! I- AHHHHHHHRRRRRR!"
Kagome saw Inu-Yasha turn away too late, as the demon crushed him with his jaws.
Suddenly Kagome saw Kikyo slowly fading away, laughing.
"You do know what this means, right? Only if Inu-Yasha is so mortally wounded that he would be unable to recover would I be going back to the spirit world! Enjoy you're last few moments with him!"
With that, Kikyo faded away completely, and Kagome was free of her spell.
"INU-YASHA!"
Sango, Miroku, and Shippou quickly rushed over to him, Kagome could only stare.
"Inu-Yasha, these wounds, maybe we could heal them..."
Sango looked desperately at Inu-Yasha.
"No... Sango... I know... that my time... has come..."
Miroku looked stubbornly at Inu-Yasha and said in defiance, "No! We can bind these wounds at least! Somebody get the supplies! I-"
"No... Miroku... do not waste...gasp...any supplies on me..."
"Inu-Yasha, you're not going to leave us? Are you...?"
Inu-Yasha smiled weakly.
"No, I'm just going to go to sleep Shippou... and then... I'm going to travel... and meet... your Dad at the inn..."
Shippou smiled at this.
"Please tell him Hi from me! When are you going to get back?"
"Please let me speak... with Kagome... alone..."
Inu-Yasha neatly avoided Shippou's last question.
They left Inu-Yasha, and Miroku said to Kagome,
"Inu-Yasha wishes to speak with you."
Kagome nodded and walked slowly over to Inu-Yasha and sat down by him.
"Kagome?... May I... lay on your lap?..."
Kagome nodded, and was reminded of the first night when Inu-Yasha turned human on her.
"Thank you... I would like to... to... tell you something... Kagome..."
"Yes, Inu-Yasha?"
"I... I... lo... I lov..."
I can't speak! I finally have the guts to tell her, and I can't speak! Inu-Yasha groaned as darkness started to settle in.
"Inu-Yasha...? Inu-YASHA? INU-YASHA! Nooo! Why?" Kagome sobbed, tears coming to her eyes. Why did he have to leave her?
"Inu-Yasha, don't leave me! I'll go insane! Inu-Yasha..." Kagome continued crying out of grief as tears started pouring down her face.
He had already left her.
