You'll Be in My Heart

Chapter 2

[ A/N: I don't own Inuyasha! n_n Please don't sue me! I have no money! ]

"It doesn't matter how you feel about it now! Do you think I will leave you to Naraku!?

The only one who can protect you from him is me!" He screamed at her, his voice hoarse

as he embraced her roughly.

" What!? Get off of me!! LET ME GO NOW!! " The voice said, struggling, pushing him

away to the extent in which  she could, before finally giving up, and falling into his arms.

A saddened girl stepped from the trees again. This was not the first time she had seen

them together. It hurt her so much to see him. . . .hugging her.

She felt as if her heart had been torn out, for the second time.

" I will kill Naraku so you won't have to fight anymore." The voice said, gentler now.

" I will protect you. . "

" Inuyasha... " The feminine voice forced out.

" Kikyou." He whispered softly.

The maiden pulled a dagger out of her haori, a slight smirk plastered to her face.

She held it up to his neck, a satisfied frown on her face.

" Kikyou... ? "

" Hmph. . . men are stupid. " She stated clearly.

" They think one hug is enough to make a woman theirs. "

" Kikyou! "

" DON'T MOVE! I have learned from observing you. There will be an opening as long

as Onigumo's heart remains inside of Naraku. Then I can purify Naraku and banish him

from this world. "

   " Kikyou. . ."

" Kikyou! "

Slim, white, soul stealers surrounded the girl, drifting her away from him, as she was

lifted off of the ground and carried away into the sky.

" KIKYOU!!!!!! " He yelled after her, indicating for her to come back.

' The red string of fate, once broken, cannot be rejoined again. '

" KIKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! " He cried out a final time, before she completely vanished.

He stared at Goshinboku for a while.

The other girl, slumped down beside the tree, in the state of shock.

Once again she had her heart broken by him.

Just by seeing him and his old lover. It tore her apart. She knew she could never be his,

and he would never be just hers.

He turned around, hearing her.

She scooted away, slowly standing up, turning around to face him. His eyes widened

some. Her usually happy, chocolate,  brown orbs are replaced with fear and regret.

' He's staring right at me! Why won't you look away? Why won't you say something,

Inuyasha?! '

The only word he spoke was, " Kagome. . . " before she turned her heel, her heavy,

yellow bag on her shoulder, and ran away from him.

    ( Inuyasha's POV )

                                                                                  Kagome. . .

         Did you see?

Did you see me and Kikyou?

Like last time, except then you saw us kiss.

Have I hurt you again?

It's my duty to protect Kikyou, and repay her with my life.

Kagome, I can't deny my feelings for you.

But, I can't be having fun all the time.

I have a mission.

I have to find all the Shikon kakera, and protect you and Kikyou.

I want Kikyou to rest in peace.

I curse loudly as I run through the forest.

' Where the hell is she!? She better let me explain! '

I sighed heavily, my pace increased some.

' She probably went to the well, so she could go home and never have to see your stupid

face ever again! '  I mentally slapped myself.

I breathed heavily as I reached the well, just to see Kagome throw her bag into the well.

" KAGOME!! " I called out to her, to see her turn her head, a sad and betrayed look in

her eyes, as she jumped in the well, after her bag.

[ Cliffhanger? Sorry for typing it all like this. See, now by the time you read this, it's already 6/24/03 and I'm trying to remember the way to fix it so it's not spaced out. @_@ Anyways, onward to chapter 3. ]
