Chapter I: Failure

This is the tragic tale of InuYasha and Kagome. One day, as InuYasha and company were traveling, and Naraku attacked. This happened to be the night of the new moon, thenight InuYasha turns into a human. The battle lasted long into the night.

Now InuYasha was human, Naraku knew this was the time to finish it. He grabbed InuYasha by the neck, about to kill him, when an arrow had flown by him. Naraku threw InuYasha at a tree and focused on Kagome. As InuYasha staggered to his feet, he saw to his horror Kagome shot with the same arrow that saved him, except the holy arrow, was now an arrow that was cursed. The force of the shot had throw Kagome off of a tall cliff. InuYasha jumped off to save her but it was too late. At the moment, Miroku and Sango and Shipo were fighting Kagura and Kohaku. Naraku and Co. had fled.

InuYasha had landed safely, but Kagome didn't. InuYasha looked at her, and saw in her eyes deep pain and sorrow. Kagome had been impaled threw her stomach, by the cursed arrow Naraku threw at her. InuYasha said, " Ka…Kagome?" Kagome looked and him and said, "Inu...InuYasha? Please, take me… to Kaede's village." By this time InuYasha had gotten his demonic powers back and he picked up the shattered body of Kagome, realizing the smell of death around her. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo followed the trail of her and InuYasha's blood to the village. They laid her Shattered body on a bed in the shrine on the peak of the town.

As the day grew old, all of her friends came to see her. InuYasha asked Kaede if she will live, but Kaede looked to the ground and cried. "InuYasha, her wounds are beyond our help, even help from her time can't save her…. I am so sorry. Now InuYasha's world had shattered before him, his best friend was dying, and now he was dying inside.

One by one they said their tearful good-byes. Miroku went first and said, "Kagome, the day I met you I knew we'd be friends, I hope we meet again… in the heavens". Kagome said, "Miroku, you to were a great friend and don't worry, well meet again soon". Sango spoke next and said "Kagome, you were like a sister to me. You helped me any time I needed it...thank you". Kagome said, "Sango, if you need my advice, look to the stars and ask me. Good-bye...sister ". Shippo enter next, trying to hold his tears. Kagome look at the fox demon and smiled, and then Shippo bawled out in tears and said, "Kagome, don't go please, I need you!" Kagome said, "Shippo, I don't want to. But it is my time to leave this world. Please...Stay out of trouble Shippo".

InuYasha was last to see her. Kagome look into InuYasha's golden eyes and smiled as he held back his tears. He said, "Kagome, I'm sorry. I should have been there to save you. But in the long run you saved me. Why?" Kagome replied. " I did it for the same reasons that you would have done it for. I love you Inuyasha." InuYasha smiled back and said, " I loved you since we first met….and I always will love you", and at that moment their lips touched. Kagome took the red ribbon that was on her shirt and gave it to him. Kagome spoke for the final time and told InuYasha, "InuYasha…my spirit will always be with you. Don't forget me…ever. Good-Bye…In..u..Yash…a" The flames that kept the room warm and bright had died out. The sky turned dark with rain and thunder. InuYasha left the shrine and told his friends the sad news that their very kind and affectionate friend was not in pain anymore. InuYasha yelled with all the fury his broken heart, "DAMN YOU NARAKU, I SWEAR I'LL SEND YOU TO HELL!" They all knew that it was all over. Kagome…had died.
