Well... here I have a sad one-shot in which Kagome attempts and commits suicide, after taking accelerated conclusions about the love triangle which is held between Inuyasha, Kikyo and herself.

I had been thinking about it for a long time, but I wasn't sure something like that was accepted. But after reading another one-shot of the same suicide, I decided I was time for it to come alive.

It is sooooo sad that Kagome doesn't realize her love is corresponded …sniff

To BK & GG, my freak, death loving friends

Tearful soul of the night breeze

Lightning crossed the firmament, illuminating the muddy land, soaked in bitter rain, followed by the roar of thunder, which scared all living creatures of the valley. Making her way though the forest, she ran, uncertain of where she was going. Only knowing that she had to get away from them. Really, she wasn't exactly running from them. She ran from him. Running from the man she loved. The man who had sweared to protect her, the one who every time risked his life for her. The one who broke her heart more every time. The one who wiped away her tears, repeating her that she wasn't Kikyo's replacement, nor she was only his shard detector.

She wandered why people around her didn't realize she suffered so much. She knew that from most people's point of view, she was always the lucky one, who had all the time in the world with him, and that he was always there to protect her. That she was pretty enough to get another boy, and she could always leave him alone. And she knew that they all saw Kikyo as the poor wandering soul, a woman who has forced to wander without route, and that her only option was to go to the man who once loved her.

Yeah, it was true in part. She sometimes was also forced to feel pity for the poor miko, but not now. Not now that he had trespassed the limit of her patience and tolerance. Not now that it seemed that he had definitely chosen.

Kagome frowned in disgust at the memory of the previous event she had witnessed. She knew that she shouldn't have gone after him, but her mind bursted in frustration and jealousy, so she had followed against her own will. And there she was. Waiting for him under the Goshinboku, bathed in moonlight, her small, evil smile across her lips.

Kagome hadn't been capable of hearing the conversation from her place of hiding, since they only whispered to each other. But she had been able to watching the actions. She had watched as he embraced her, and she had returned the hug back. As he had whispered in her ear and she had giggled. As he had softly kissed her forehead and he had cuddled his face in her hair. It was clear that he had no doubts about his decision.

After that last one, it had been enough for her. So she had tuned around and ran, not knowing in which way her feet where taking her. She had firstly thought of going again to the camp, but she realized that wouldn't cure her aching heart. So she had run down hill.

Slipping though the muddy puddles, gaining cuts and bruises from the roots and lower branches, she got to a place where the trees stooped, because now the soil under her feet was made of hard, cold rock. The rain had stopped abruptly, as if making silence for her to move. Feeling the breeze in her face, she opened her eyes, only to see the extension of the whole valley just beneath her, beyond a tall and rocky cliff. She took some steps forwards, and felt the breeze in her face, playing with her long raven hair, like inviting her to jump and joining the lonely current of the small stream at the bottom of the cliff.

She had to accept it was very tempting indeed.

She looked at the ground, at the far away stream, at the puddles of water, at the full, shiny moon.

She lowered her her sight to her shoes, and whispered.

"Why? …Why Inuyasha? Why…? What do you see in her that you don't see in me?… Can't you see that I'm always warm for you… and that she is always cold as death?… can't you see she wanted to change you for her advantage… and that I love you as you are?… can't you just see that I'm full of life and that she is already dead and can never make you happy?… can't you see she only stands by you because she wants to take you to hell as a repay… and that I stand at your side because I love you more than life itself…?"

she screamed silently, as the tears dropped to the cliff, into the wind.

She looked at the inviting nothingness in front of her, trying to resist the urge to join the current. But the calling from the breeze and the river was too much for her.

She gave a tempting step forwards. She could feel the border of the cliff slightly broking under her feet, and the wind rushing against her, as if waiting for her to jump and fly with him through the skies.

She closed her eyes, looking at the moon, as the last beautiful thing she should see again, and gave another step forwards.

Just in that moment, all the realization and common sense came back to her in a sudden flash. She realized that she didn't have to suffer for him, but could always go back to her era and find the love of her life there. She knew that was partly a lie, because Inuyasha would stay forever in her heart, as her soul mate, and then the biggest realization came. If she was suffering so much, she was the only one who could change what happened, and, after all, the future depended on her collecting the shikon no kakera and using them for a good purpose.

In that moment, fear invaded her, and made her mind numb. She became more frightened when she noticed a blue, shinning sphere, which wandered in her direction, and placed itself in her chest. Realization came to her, but when she tried to turn around, the sudden bolt of energy made the rocks under her feet crumble, and fall… taking her down with them. Her shriek of desperation faded away with the wind.

- Change of POV-

Inuyasha followed the sweet essence of jasmine, tainted with salty tears, which crossed the forest. He then realized she had witnessed the event, and guilt invaded his heart. She surely was heartbroken, and had taken accelerated conclusions, after not even listening the conversation, because if she knew the real meaning of the encounter, she would be happy.

He had sited Kikyo that night to say goodbye, to her, since he had chosen his true love; Kagome. She had agreed to leaving to hell, after a proper farewell, which included a bit of the stuff they had forgotten 50 years ago. So he had cuddled her, embraced her and kissed her forehead as sign of goodbye, and gratefulness of making him able of meeting her reincarnation. She had blessed both of them, and then she had left, to take the lonely path to the other world, where her soul would abandon her body to rejoin the grace of her reincarnation.

So for that he ran after her, as fast a she could, in fear that she would go to her era. But his surprise came when the path of the scent turned away from the camp, away from the well. So tensing more, he followed, knowing in fear what was at the end of the road. It was a huge cliff, under which he had hided when a horde of demons chased him when he had been only a child. Fear of what might do a suffering woman in such a place, he quickened his pace, and his heart skipped a bet when a faded away shriek reached his ears.

When he reached the cliff… she was gone. He ran to the border, an d looked down. It was dark, but because of his hanyou eyes, he could distinguish a small patch of red, which undoubtable was her neck cloth. He jumped down, landing softly in the trees, and rushed to take her body out of the stream. He took her bruised body out of the water, and laid it on the grass. He cuddled her in his lap, brushing her long hair in his hands.

"Why Kagome? Why...?"

It was hard to make such a tragedy, so please REVIEW! sniff
