Chapter 1

No.It couldn't be real.She couldn't leave him.Not this way.He didn't want to belive that she could possiably be gone.Lifting her fragile frame from the ground,he gasped.Her heart beat,fainly could be heard,felt,meager and light from her cheast.He cradled her body close to his and looked down at her.Maby there was hope for her life.A small,candle of flickering hope,not even bright enough to light a mouse hole,but still there!

"Kagome",he murmerd,looking down at her mangled form.Her raven black hair,matted with dirt and blood,skin scratched and bleeding.

"I-Inuyasha",she whisperd,takeing a light grip on his Haori.

"Shh,Kagome,Im here",he whisperd,holding her tighter.

flashback

Inuyasha dodged another blast from the huge bears forehead.

They were battleing a large bear demond,with enhanced power from the jewel shards in his forehead.

Inuyasha lept up to strike it."Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!",he yelled,slashing at the bear.The bear however missed,and swiped at him with it's own claws!"You overgrown furball,cough up those shards",inuyasha demanded,drawing Tetseiga and slashing at the lug of a creature.The bear put up a forcefeild,reflecting the blow from the sword,and blowing it back to where it had came from.

"Why do Miroku and Sango have to be gone the one time I need them",He thought,dodgeing the reflection.He looked behind him,Kagome anywhere in sight,so he figured she was in the same place that he had put her to hide.

Takeing another strike at the bear,he brought the sword down,only to hit the barrier again.

'Time to bring this up a notch",he thought out loud.

"Windscar!".The three energy blades flew towards the super-charged bear,reflecting off of his barrier sgain.Surprised,he lept out of the way,barely avoiding the blow.The blades hit a strange crystal surface,from the nearby cave,ricochading into the caves depths.An agonizing scream rang out,and he gasped in horrer,as he rezlized what had happend.The attack had bounced directally into Kagome's hideing place.In fear that she might be hurt,he took off into the mouth of the cave,giving the bear time to escape.When he got there,he found her,the windscar hadn't hit her directally ,but had nicked her.it's power though,had left her severly injured.

"Kagome,i'm sorry",he apologized,"I didn't meen to hit you".

"I-it's,o...k,",she managed to whisper.

"Don't talk",he insisted,"Just relax and let me bring you to Keada".

Kagome shuddered invoeltarialy,and whimperd in pain.holding him with every ounce of streagnth she had,gasping for shakey breaths.Inuyasha looked down at her,worring.'Would she make the trip?''Would she be saved if she did?'.

He finaly decided otherwise.Carefully,so not to hurt her,he lifted her into his lap.Holding her against his cheast,afraid to let her go,as if she would dissapere if he did."Kagome",he whispered softly in her ear,"I love you".

"I- I,l-love.....you..t- too.......",She whispered as her soul left her body.her hand fell limp from his haori falling across her cheast.The pained expression drained from her face,along with her life.

"Kagome",he whisperd,his voice whavering in the shallow light."No",he murmerd,"No Kagome,you can't leave me like this".For possiably the first time since his mother died,he felt tears swell up in his eyes.He looked down at her.Her face was begining to fade to a pale color.He brushed a strand of hair from her face,and leaned down over her.he closed his eyes as he planted a kiss on her chilled lips.He stared for a while,before gathering her up and walking away.he would take her back to the village.He would make sure that she had a proper burial,and was sure that Miroku would pray for her spirit.The hard part,would be brakeing the news to her family.he looked at her face,and finally allowed his tears to fall.

DON'T WORRY THIS IS NOT THE END.IT IS JUST A BREAK AND I AM NOT LEAVING YOU HANGING,BUT REVIEWS WOULD DEFINATELY MAKE WRITING EAISER!!
