Her grip tightened on his hand, her body was covered in sweat as she shook and trembled, she turned her head so she could face him and gave him a small smile, She had given birth to a baby after twelve hours of labor before she became still and the lights in her eyes dimmed and became unseeing. He gathered her pale lifeless body into his arms and held her tightly to his heart, rocking back and forth as the melancholy of losing her caused anguished tears to flow freely down his face and a sound between a scream and a sob to tear from his throat as his fingers ran through her dark hair.

Can see you standing in the pouring rain
Waiting for changes to carry you away
I can see the light fall from your eyes
As we get lost in the tears of this goodbye

But you can't go farther
Than my heart can go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Through the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me

The tiny cry of the creature in the corner was the only thing that could reach him, he laid his lover's body back on the bed and slowly made his way to the basket and picked up his child..their child. He held her in one had and wiped away his tears with the other.

I can hear you laugh
When I close my eyes
I can picture your face
And the strength inside your smile
I can see the words
Dance across your lips
I'll remember forever
Something more than this

"Please forgive me...I couldn't save her...It's all my fault" He pleaded to the infant who stared up at him with her one gold eye and one blue eye the tiny dog ears on her head twitching, "your name is Kagome after your mother, I think she would be happy to know her name was passed to you"

And you can't go farther
Than my heart can, will go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Through the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
Fom me

It rained the day Kagome was laid to rest, beneath a weeping Sakura tree, Inuyasha's face was red, puffy, and stained with tears, dark circles adorned his eyes, and were glazed with sadness. Many were gathered, a slayer, an ex-monk, a fox, a flea, and even a lord stood before the grave of a brave miko. Despite his pain he stepped forward to deliver an eulogy. "Kagome never let people's words harden her heart, she tried to get closer to the people who were the cruelest to her, she couldn't believe that someone could be born hateful and she always sought out the good in everyone, not only did we lose someone but the whole world lost one of the few angels sent to walk amongst us unworthy creatures and now she's been called home and the whole world feels emptier without her in it." he said, fresh tears adorning his face.

So you can't go farther
Than my heart will go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Thought the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me

And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me
That has taken you
From me

The others left to get out of the down pour but he stood there, letting the biting wind and cold rain of November whip his silver hair around wildly. He took in a deep breath, then kneeled to one knee and placed a bouquet of white lilies in front of the stone, he then stood and walked into his hut to mourn with his daughter, The life he'd had before she came into it was less than the life she shared with him and eventually gave to him, and for that InuYasha was grateful to an old well and a different miko's spell because in the end they gave him Kagome...both of them.
