Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha

Escape from Unrequited Love

Chapter one: The end

Miroku, where is Inuyasha?" Sango asked. Miroku looked up to the inky night time sky, indicating the grayish soul stealer's haunting the normally semi-peaceful sky's.

"Oh.." Sango mumbled staring sadly into the blazing embers."Poor Kagome-san"

"Yes, Lady Kagome must have noticed by now." Came Miroku's reply, pity showing in his eyes. Sango sighed, 'Poor Kagome, she must be heartbroken' she thought

"Inuyasha where were you?"

"Here.." The lie shown in his eye.

"Are you sure? I was looking for you." She said, the edge in her voice sharp.

" Of course I'm sure, wench!"

"Come on! Admit it, Inuyasha! You ran off to Kikyou again!" She shouted.

"Come off it Kagome." He growled not quite admitting he was with her.

"No, I won't." Kagome retorted, her growl almost rivaling his.

"Wench."

Kagome looked up at the silver haired haynou perched in the tree, thinking up the worst insult she could.

"You..You...You rude..insensitive, arrogant, self-worshiping haynou!" She finished spitting out the word like poison in her mouth. She paused, positively fuming. She had had enough of him running off to Kikyou and lying about it. He would hardy even talk to her anymore, If yelling was considered talking to her? Well she was done putting up with it.

"Their fights are getting increasingly worse Miroku." There was a pause when the word hanyou was heard, causing Sango to wince,"Do you think Kagome actually means what she says?"

Miroku shook his head,

"I just don't know anymore Sango."

She nodded her agreement. It was hard to tell the difference between what each meant and didn't mean.

"It must be really hard for Kagome, With Inuyasha running off all the time, He's hardly ever listening to her at all now. And when, more so if he talks to her he only insults her and starts a fight."

"You can't stop me from going can you Kagome?" Inuyasha questioned arrogantly

"You think just because we defeated Naraku, You can just forget about me?! I thought we had something Inuyasha, you said you loved me! Now your just going to go back to Kikyou, or what's left of her, a clay shell!"

Kagome clenched her fists, her nails for a moment, changing in to much sharper claws, And she cried out both in pain and anger. Her body began to visibly shake. Then for a split second, everyone within a 1000 mile radius felt an aura of a Very strong, higher level demon.'Oh no, not now! They can't find out! HE can't find out!' she took a deep breath. But just as soon as it appeared, it disappeared. and Kagome's hands unclenched, she slumped over in defeat. it wasn't worth it to waste the protective spell her mother put over her...not for Inuyasha.

"I've had enough Inuyasha," Kagome mumbled, tears filling her golden brown eyes,though she was barley whispering, Inuyasha caught every word she said, and what followed tore at his heart.

"I can't wait for you, I know there is a kind hearted person in you somewhere, Inuyasha, but I've waited for him for five years to come out,"

Here again she paused, her tears halted on there journey down her face as she took another shuddering breath.

"Waiting for him is like waiting for Sesshomaru to come out in the open and tell you he no longer wants the tetsuiga." She laughed humorlessly. She could feel the on coming tears filling her eyes again. She said the last bit with stony eyes and a shredded heart,

"I'm done waiting Inuyasha.." she spun away from him and stepped in to the forest pausing just hidden in the shadows of the tree line. The twilight had crept up on the two would be couples now, and although Sango and Miroku's vision was impaired by the darkness, Inuyasha and Kagome could see fine, which only made it worse for him because he could see her tears and he could see the immense pain in her eyes, the pain that caused him to look away. Kagome winced when he did.

"Inuyasha.." her voice filled with her pain she stared at him, her deep brown eyes burning holes in to his head, forcing him to meet her eyes. She finally turned away, but did not walk any farther in to the forest. "Inuyasha," She cried out her pain.

He looked up, shocked. 'Kagome? Why is she still here, I thought she left.'

"Wench what the hell do you want? I Love Kikyou! Don't you get it? I don't love you!" He shouted at her.

She looked over her shoulder at him, crying again.

"I. Loved. You..You Bastard." And with her last words whispered so only her would hear, she departed.

"Why is Kagome going in to the forest instead of the well?" Inquired an innocent shippo to an now dumbstruck clan. 'Poor Kagome, she really loved him...'

Three Months Ago

"Sit boy! I'm going home." Kagome yelled as she jumped in to the well, yellowed backpack in hand, and a grumbling Inuyasha, left reacquaint himself with a good friend.

A deep blue light emitted from the well as two yellow slitted eyes stared at it.

"Mom! Gramps! Souta? I'm home!" the ebony haired girl called looking up. Climbing up the step ladder this girl came face to face with those two yellow eyes.

"Ahhh...ugh"

"Meow?" The creature called from above.

"Boyu? What are you doing? Your not supposed to be in here? Silly cat." A slightly flustered Kagome said climbing once again from the depths of the well.

"Mom? Gramps, Souta!? Anyone home?" Slinging her pack over her shoulder she scooped the cat from the floor of the well house holding him in front of her face she asked,

"Where is everyone Boyu? Did they go away again?" She shook her head talking to a cat was useless. She cuddled him in her arms and headed out in to the yard.

From her place on the sidewalk across town, the bloodcurdling scream was still heard.

"Mom?? Mom? Mom!!" Kagome called rushing to cover her mother from view, but it was to late she had already been attacked by the city. "What happened to you?! Why were you attacked, your concealment spell always worked before!"

"You almost broke your concealment spell so i had to rebuild it for you, while i did, i was attacked and i can no longer fix yours. I will not live much longer. and when i die, your concealment spell will only last until you become extremely angry, if you become to angry it will break and you will have to live in the fudel era." Her breathing was labored and her grip on her daughters hand was weakening. Her eyes began to glaze over.

"Mom please don't die. Please! You can't die. I need your help!! I need you... Mom...Mom? Mom!?"

Kagome cried into her mothers shoulder and felt as her mothers life disappeared from her body.

Back to the clearing

Sango looked down in to the last traces of the fire when a loud sigh was heard from the shadows.

'Kagome?' the thought was unanimous and Both the monk and the demon slayer looked towards the spot. They also both sighed together, when none other than Kikyou stepped out of the shadow.

"Kikyou!" Inuyasha shouted running towards her and scoping her into his arms, "Kikyou..." He jumped up into another tree where he could be alone with his beloved. Sango made a face and pretended to gag at him then nodded at Miroku and lay down to sleep, kirara curled at her feet. Miroku also decided to lie down, but not before glancing at the face of the sleeping Sango and whispering, "Night my love.." then he was swept in to the land of dreams.

Mean while with Kikyou and Inuyasha...

"Kikyou, I wanted to tell you...but with Kagome and Naraku i couldn't...I want you to know.." He babbled on for a while until Kikyou interrupted him,

"Inuyasha what is it you wish to tell me?" Her normally heartless voice a tad warmer.

"Kikyou...I love you...With all my heart, Will you be my mate?" He stared in to her eyes, searching franticly for any sign of disgust or refusal.

"Inuyasha..I would be very proud to be your mate..." She replied she began to say more, but Inuyasha cut her off, with a kiss. Which was followed by another, and then another until they moved to a very secluded,(or so they thought) part of the forest and then they preformed the process of becoming mates.

Kagome watched in horror as Inuyasha and Kikyou became mates, Or the beginning of the process, but then ran away, possibly scared for life.'I can't believe i almost told him the truth...he could of found out my secret, then what would i have done...I have to try harder not to get angry...or else i might have some serious problems.' Kagome thought walking into camp and falling asleep in her sleeping bag by the fire.

"Owwwww!!! Inuyasha! That hurts!! Let me gooooooo!!! Kagome help me!!!" This was the screech to which Kagome woke up...

"Sit boy.."she mumbled rolling over and going back to sleep. Or at least attempting to, but unfortunately for her she could not. "Sit boy!" she said again sitting up and stretching.

"What was that for!!???" He shouted getting in her face.

"Sit boy. Sango come with me? I would like to take a bath..." She said pulling out the shampoo and conditioner and walking towards the hot springs. Sango glared at Miroku then giggling following after a happy Kagome.
