One
Shot
Slipped Away
Kagome walked from the
scene of dispare. Naraku was defeated, but at a great cost; the lives
of her friends. And most importantly, the life of her one true love.
It was not fair that she
had finaly found the one she was meant to be with, and no sooner he
was taken away with out a good bye.
Walking aimlessly threw
the blood and gore she looked at her fallen comrades.
Na na, na na na, na na
Kikyo's body was nothing
but ash. InuYasha had such a large gaping hole in his chest, his
heart literaly ripped out.
As tears slid down her
blood staind cheeks she looked from friend to friend.
I miss you, miss you so
bad
I don't forget you, oh
it's so sad
Sango had died in the arms
of her love, while protecting her brother.
The only ones left alive
were her and shippo.
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly
She walked to her adopted
son, who was sobbing over the body of (kylala). She carefully picked
the young kitsune up and craddled his body to her breast.
As she walked away, she
saw the one she loves with all her heart. She changed direction and
walked to him.
The day you slipped
away
Was the day I found it
won't be the same
Ooooh
Knealing down she wiped
silver, blood soaked strands of hair away from his beautiful face.
She silently closed his eyelids, one last time.
She just couldn't tear
herself away from him. While still holding the crying kit, she traced
the cresent moon on her love's forehead, then bent to kiss him one
last time.
Na na na na na na na
Her heart ached with the
thought that Sesshoumaru would never be able to wrap those strong
arms around her ever again.
She wepped harder at the
thought that they would never share a secret smile not ever again.
Her body convulsed with
sobs as she thought that he would never again be able to tell her he
loves her.
Or her him.
She cried out when she
thought that she would never again be able to kiss his warm and
tender lips.
Never again.
I didn't get around to
kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
In the moment after her
outburst she felt the tiniest of arms surround her neck.
"It's okay mama
Kagome. We have each other. I'll never leave. Never ever, I promase!"
Hugging the boy tighter to
her chest she assured him, "Yes, yes baby, we have each other.
And I shall never leave you either. You have my word."
I wish that I could see
you again
I know that I can't
With that she stood.
Swayed. And continued to walk. She closed her eyes and took a deep
breath. It was so hard not to look back.
But she couldn't. She
would not allow herself to look back. She had to be strong for her
son. And for herself.
She couldn't bare the
thought of leaving him alone in this world.
Oooooh
I hope you can hear me
cause I remember it clearly
As she walked she headed
Southeast to the bone eaters well. She walked towards peace.
As they arrived in the
clearing Kagome took the completed jewel of four souls from the chain
around her neck.
She had shippo climb to
her soulders while she held the pink swirling mass of gem between
both her palms.
Closing her eyes she
prayed harder than she ever had before.
'Please Kami, Let me live
in happiness with my son, Shippo. And let these souls that lye in
this stone be put to rest once and for all.'
The day you slipped away
5 Months later
Was the day I found it
won't be the same
Ooooh
"Mama!" An
encredibly cute little japanese boy, with the oddest red hair, cried
out as he ran to a beautiful young woman in a silvery blue summer
dress.
"Shippo!" She
cried as she picked him up and swung him around to keep balance. "How
was your day at school my lovely young man?"
"It was the best!
Mrs. Kaddie had us draw pictures of who we admire most! And I drew
one of you!"
"Aw baby boy that is
the best thing anyone has said and done about me!"
"And we also have a
new student!"
"Oh, really?!""Yeah!
Her name is Reini!" He said, then whispered, "she looks a
lot like Rin did!"
Looking up to find this
little girl, her heart stopped cold, as she saw a whisp of silver
hair turn around the corner.
I had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed
by
Holding her son closer
Kagome fallowed the man around the building. Her heart beat faster at
an impossible rate.
"Mama... was that..."
the young boy started but could not finish his sentence. He didn't
want to get his hopes up... Or more he didn't want to get his mama's
hopes up.
Picking up her pace she
called out to him, "Hello?! Um, sir?"
Now you are gone, now
you are gone
There you go, there you
go
Somewhere I can't bring
you back
Now you are gone, now
you are gone
There you go, there you
go,
Somewhere your not
coming back
The tall man turned around
and looked at her with his peircing amber eyes. Amber eyes so much
like his.
"Yes? Have we met?"
Her heart sinking fast she
made up for it with a bright smile.
"No, but it's such a
small school, that you have to be the father of Reine, I believe?"
"Oh, yes, of course.
And this little red head must be Shippo. I must say Reine is very
attached to him. We must get them together for a play-date sometime."
"Oh, absolutly. I'm
sure he would love that. Well, if you'll excuse my manors. My name is
Kagome, I jus thought I should meet the new parent on the block."
"It is very nice to
meet you Kagome, I'm Saturninus."
Kagome covered her
breaking heart with another smile, "It was nice to meet you
Saturninus. We had better get going. But we should deffinitly set up
that play-date soon."
The day you slipped
away
Was the day i found it
won't be the same noo..
The day you slipped
away
Was the day that i
found it won't be the same oooh...
Shippo knew his mother was
hurting. He was too, he had really hoped...
He hugged his mama tighter
as they walked off.
Na na, na na na, na na
Kagome paused suddenly as
the wind carried a single whispered message.
"So we meet again."
She turned back around
quickly, but alas Saturninus was no where to be seen.
I miss you
