"I love you!" She cried out, though her voice was strong, it was lost in the roaring of the wind and the beating of the rain. Thunder cracked somewhere in the distance. Then a flash of lightning filled the sky, and only for a few moments, she could see his figure. He heard her. She knew he did. How couldn't he have? He slowly turned to her and another crack of thunder rang through the land. It was as if the weather matched the raging storm in her body. She was soaked to the bone, she didn't care. As long as he didn't see the tears that she let fall from her eyes.

"You love me you say?" he mused at the thought for a moment. Then decided it was nothing. How could she understand? How would she know what love was? "So you have any idea what it means to be in love?! You're a mere child, my dear Kagome. Innocent, naïve, and so incompetent. You know nothing of what you speak!" His raged flared in his honey colored eyes. His face was masked. No emotion on it what so ever. She shivered, he looked so much like his half brother. He could see the pain and rejection in her eyes. She couldn't hide her emotions if she tried, and worst of all, he could smell her tears. Suddenly her eyes flared a dangerous black.

"Incompetent! I'm incompetent? Well then, I am as incompetent as you are stubborn! At least I know what I want and I can know in my heart that I love someone. And whether you like it or not, that someone is you!" She felt like she died a little. She not only soaked in the cold, but also the pain of the rejection. She knew he was saying his goodbye. And now she knew he would never love her back. I mean why would he? I am nothing but a simple reminder of something he can't have. That's all I'll ever be, a copy of the woman who he loves. His little shard collector. And just another pain in his ass.

"Kagome?" His eyes soft. "Would you just trust me? I'm not good for you. Don't you get it? I am trying to save you from making the biggest mistake of your life. You don't want to love a filthy little half breed like me." So that's what this is about. Him being a half demon?

"No, don't you get? I love you for who and what you are. You're not a filthy little half breed! You're not cold hearted like a full demon and you're not weak and useless like human. Don't you see Inuyasha, you're perfect. And you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I want to be here with you. I always have. That's why I haven't left." Why does she have to make this so hard. I can't do this to her. I can't make her suffer like I have had too. Like my mother had too. I won't!

"I'm sorry Kagome. I just…This is the way it has to be. Go back to your own time. Forget about me. Forget about this place. It's time you left…for good."

"What about the rest of the shards?"

"I'll just have Kikyou. help me." That must be what this is really about. He still wants Kikyou. Well fine, I'll leave him be. He can have is Kikyou. I can't believe you just told him you loved him. You idiot. And here he is trying to nicely put it that he doesn't even want you. RUN YOU IDIOT, RUN!

"Fine Inuyasha. I'll leave and never come back to bother you. You can finally be with Kikyou." She turned gracefully and walked away. She was not about to give him the satisfaction of him leaving her. Then she promised herself…he would never hurt her again. She walked blindly back to the well that connected her old life to her new one. She stepped in, not even thinking about saying goodbye to Sango, Miroku, or even her Shippo. She jumped in and let the blue color swirl around her. As she climbed back out of the well…It's storming here too.
