The whole of Spirit World was frozen in place. At least that's what it felt like to the onlookers of the tragic scene. All noise and movement seemed to stop and it felt as if the air had disappeared. An immense feeling of despair seemed to blanket everything and everyone.
Many held their breath in anticipation of what they could feel building up while others fled to their homes to hide. The handful of people witness to the cause of despair seemed frozen in place as they fought against their own instincts to flee. For all of their power and finesse in battle, this was one time that their almost limitless power could do no good.
Waves upon waves of healing energy poured from the room and yet it never seemed to be enough. The patients breathing seemed to become more and more labored. Each rasp of breath was followed by more healing energy in an effort to ease the suffering but no amount of energy was working.
Tear gems rolled across the floor, unknowingly rolling towards their owner's brother, as Yukina felt herself becoming drained as she pulled on every bit of power she could. "Please," she said, begging to any god that would listen.
Genkai whispered the same plea as she stared down at the brown eyes of the one person whom she knew had to live, no matter what. She could feel her reserves of power depleting, each she still pulled on them even as her own tears slipped down her cheeks to land on the ground.
It was perhaps the third healer, who seemed the most desperate of the bunch. Kagome felt tears slip down her cheeks but paid them no mind as she summoned all of the power she had. She had even begun pulling on the power of the jewel inside of her and it was making no difference. "Please god no," she sobbed desperately as she tapped into her life force but it was too late.
All of a sudden, all the power in the room stopped as one final raspy breath escaped, to be followed by no more. Kagome's breathing seemed to stop as well as her eyes widened in shock. All of her strength left her when she finally exhaled. She barely even registered her knees slamming into the concrete as she hit the ground in her shock.
Koenma's pacifier hit the ground as he tried to move towards the priestess but it was too late. An immense wave of pure rage and despair erupted from the small priestess in front of them. Yukina and Genkai grabbed him as they quickly moved away from the priestess. They knew that her grief would know no bounds.
"SOUTA!" Kagome screamed out in pure rage and grief as her power erupted around her.
AN: Do not own Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho. So what do you guys think? I want to see how you think things will go or what you think will happen.
