wasn't hell bent on trying to get the Shikon no Tama!!

Me: Good. Anyways, if any of you guys are Kingdom Hearts fans, please please please

PLEASE review my fic "Fragments of Sorrow." My goal is to get 100 reviews. That

would be like my DREAM!! ^____^ Aaaaaanyway, on with the show! Oh yeah, the song I

picked for this songfic is called "Enigma" by Trapt. TRAPT RULES!!! YEAAAAHH!!!

// = song lyrics

"Enigma"

By: Ragnarok XIII

// Do we know how to get the message across?

We turn the lights out to find a way out

No time to get through to grasp what was lost//

Inuyasha swiftly glided through the forest on the outskirts of the Shrine of the

Shikon no Tama; the Jewel of Four Souls. Hopefully, everyone was asleep.

Except Kikyo.



//Don't turn the light off and leave me in the dark

Hey, I'm pleading, my soul is bleeding

I don't wanna be left alone

Not when I'm right next to you//

Kikyo was the Guardian of the Jewel. She was more intent on guarding it than

guarding her own life. And that is how they met. Inuyasha thought that he could just sneak

in and take it, but before that thought was finished, he was pinned to a tree by four

extremely well-aimed arrows. Inuyasha sighed. This had been the eighth time this had

happened that week.

"HEY!! Why don't you just shoot me and then I'll stop coming to take your stupid

jewel!!!"

"...I don't feel like it." Came the somewhat harsh reply. And with that, Kikyo and her

best men disappeared into the shrubbery, leaving Inuyasha pinned.

//What are you thinking?

Its so misleading

Is it not for me to know?

I think its just hard for you to show//

Inuyasha smiled. Those were good times. Now, back to his mission.

//We never spoke in the words that we want

We turn the lights off to find a way out

We've never chosen to keep what we've got

Don't turn the light off and leave me in the dark//

He crept to Kikyo's small hut, nobody was awake. He glanced up at the moon.

Only a small sliver was left. He had about ten minutes.

//So hard for you to show...

Why is it hard for you to show?//

He pondered on this for a moment. She was so lonely...just like him. She had to

stay tough in order to stay on top. She has to seem superhuman to be able to fend off the

countless demons that swarmed the Jewel like flies. Just like him. He had to be tough so

that his brother, Sesshoumaru, wouldn't step on him. It was hard being a half demon. Full

demons look down on you as pathetic and weak and humans were terrified of you.

By now he was inside her hut. He looked into the corner where he saw her small

form curled up. He padded softly to her side and watched her breathing. She looked so

small and delicate. Her meticulous facade had dropped, exposing her soft, vulnerable side.

"Kikyo...wake up...please..."

Her eyelashes fluttered and soon she was awake.

"Inuyasha...what's wrong?"

Two minutes...

"Look I...I...I love you Kikyo..."

Thirty seconds...

Blink blink.

//I thought it would be nice to like down and close my eyes

It never occurred to me that I am already asleep

Don't be the one to let it go

Don't be the one to be alone

Don't be the one to be alone tonight

Asleep in your arms//

White hair darkened to deepest ebony as the fuzzy ears disappeared. Golden eyes melted

to a rich mahogany, but not without its flecks of gold. But these, now human, eyes were

filled with tears.

Kikyo was lost. What happened? Is this still Inuyasha? He...he's crying! Why...?

Inuyasha couldn't help it. Ever since he was born, he was ridiculed and taunted.

He loved his mother more than anything, but was ashamed of his human weakness. When

his mother died, it almost drove him to insanity. As if his heart was shattering. Everything

just came to the surface, right that minute.

"//I don't wanna be left alone...I don't wanna be left alone....No one wants to be

left alone...//"

"You don't have to be alone, Inuyasha...I'll be with you. Even death cannot separate us."
