Title: A Farewell to Bloody Dreams
Summary: She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles when the world is hers... The simple task of gathering her in his arms, the way he had done so many times, burnt and singed the fingertips he had tangled in her hair. She couldn't leave... This was supposed to be the best time of his life... Their time...

Disclaimer: I'm not gonna get all fancy, ('cause I really want to go ahead and post this) I don't own InuYasha or any of it's characters nor do I own the song "Dusk and Summer"
She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles when the world is hers...
She just lay there.
Her limp body soaked in blood.
Why now? Why her? Why his Kagome?
...and she held your eyes
The simple task of gathering her in his arms, the way he had done so many times, burnt and singed the fingertips he had tangled in her hair. She couldn't leave... This was supposed to be the best time of his life... Their time...
Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer...
The brown eyes reflected into gold as she twirled in her field of flowers. They were daisies, her favorite and she kept a handful tucked behind her ear while gripping another in her slender fingers...
Kagome giggled again grasping InuYasha's hand into hers pulling him down onto the soft grass.
...and she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers. She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer...
"I have something to tell you," she smiled as they lay in the grass.
He pressed his lips against hers one last time before whispering, "What is it?"
She sighed a sort of happy sigh that said, "You won't believe it!"
but you've already lost , but you've already lost, but you've already lost when you only had barely enough to hang on...
"Tell me Kagome!" He laughed trying to hide his smile.
"Guess!"
...and she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth and she made you better than you'd been before she told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
"I don't know, just tell me!" he demanded.
"Nope! Guess again."
He could tell she was trying to keep from laughing at the odd face he must have been making. It was all very confusing, along with the fact that he was trying to hide his smile and stay serious.
...and she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap she said "Nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer."
"Come on, Kagome!"
"Oh, InuYasha! It's the most wonderful thing that could ever happen!"
The golden orbs in his eyes grew wide in realization.
"What are you saying?" he asked cautiously and yet so hopefully...
The girl crawled over to his ear and whispered with excitement-but you've already lost, but you've already lost, but you've already lost when you only had barely enough to hang on.
"We're going to have a baby InuYasha!"
She said, "No one is alone the way you are alone" and you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure days like that should last and last and last...
And here she lay...
Bloody, yet in his arms...
"Inu-...Yasha?" Her eyes opened so slightly.
He looked up with a tear-stained face.
"I'm sorry," she whispered.
"Save your strength!" He ordered sharply, "So we can- S-so we can-..." The tears began to fall again.
"We can what?" her meek voice barely escaped her.
Salty droplets trickled from his eyes and dripped onto her face, washing away what looked like mud, but was really a mix of dirt and her own blood.
"D-don't leave me..." he begged in a whispering plea.
She smiled at him... one last time, and simply said, "Never..."
but you've already lost, but you've already lost, but you've already lost when you only had barely enough of her to hang on...
Hang on...
Hang on...
Hang on...

Don't cry, don't cry! Just be on the look for-... (fanfare plays) PART 2!!!!!!!!!
