As most people say, when they have near -death experiences, they say their lives flash before their eyes. For me, all I saw were those eyes. His eyes. I was not afraid. It was slow. The falling, I mean. I felt like I was flying. Maybe this was all I was looking for. Peace. It was like I had as much time in the world. I don't even think I felt the pain. All I remember is his beautiful face and my Last moment. When I kissed him. I don't know what came over me. Maybe it was the adrenaline. I just knew I had to do it. I needed to do it. Then I remember blacking out. I didn't think what would happen next. But when I saw my father's face, I knew I was beyond everything I had ever hoped and dreamt for. I was home.

KAGOME! I heard a bloodcurdling scream. Was that me? I cant believe it…
She jumped. I would do something this time. My body would not listen. Move! Go get her! You love her! my demon was about to burst. Seven seconds. That's how long I stood there. I was eight seconds too late. I saw her face as she jumped. She was…. Peaceful? How could she be? My demon roared inside me and tore my human heart to shreds cursing at how dense I was to not see her emotions and her pain. I heard a sigh. She was still alive! My body finally moved. I jumped down the cliff with all my strength turning full demon in the process because of my will for her to live. I found her. She was breathing slow, short breaths and blood was everywhere. It was clear she was dying.I knew that only one person could help me. Sesshomaru. As much as it pained him he had to. Plus the fact that he could never truly repay him, Inuyasha had to push his pride down and run.

"Rin keep up" Sesshomaru told her as she loved to dance among the flowers and get lost. "Ah-uh come play with me!" "Oh yes lord Sesshomaru!" petty human girl… why if I was lord Sesshomaru I would've killed her in an instant!" Jaken ranted. Sesshomaru stopped suddenly . "O lord Sesshomaru why did we stop?" I smell my hanyou half-brother Inuyasha." Then, Inuyasha came out of the trees with kagome in his arms and landed at Sesshomaru's feet. Well, well, well whatever do we have here? Sesshomaru .. Inuyasha whimpered. "I need your help " what? I didn't hear you." Inuyasha, knowing full well he heard his strangled whisper he once again pushed down his pride and looked fully into Sesshomaru's eyes and said once more, louder, "Sesshomaru! I NEED YOUR HELP!" oh and why little brother will this Sesshomaru help you? " "Because, just because. Even though we may hate each other, we are still brothers that care for each other. Also because I love her….and you're the only one that can help…if you don't so much as help me Sesshomaru I will kill you." Sesshomaru took that as an empty threat but at that precise moment, Rin decided to show up from picking flowers. O hi Inuyasha, how is…what happened to kagome? O lord Sesshomaru you have to help her! Will she die? Oh please lord Sesshomaru!" if it wasn't for rin's pestering he surely have said no and killed Inuyasha right there and then. "Rin…if I do this will you be quiet?" "O yes lord Sesshomaru!" fine. 'Inuyasha… lay her down.' As Sesshomaru unsheathed Tenseiga, Inuyasha did as he was told and prayed a silent prayer that it would work.

Dad? Is that you? I was in a white meadow, full of lilies and blue butterflies. It was so calm here. So reassuring and safe. I knew I could stay here forever. "Yes honey, and my, have you grown!" "Ha-ha dad." I got up and hugged him. He smelled of cinnamon and earth. Finally he broke the hug. "Awww sweetie I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you". "You're here now aren't you?" "Yes, honey but there something I must explain." His face change to a saddened expression. Honey I know it hurts but, sometimes pain is the first step in happiness. I know your reasons for doing those "acts of self-harm" and that suicide was only out of too much love, But your not ready yet. Not ready for what dad? I ask suspiciously. "To die." you have too much too live for. And more so that Inuyasha loves you. No….dad I'm.. I was just a jewel shard collector. He loves Kikyou. The sentence tasted bitter in my mouth. HE LOVES KIKYOU! I screamed aloud. "No. he loves you." My dad said. "Look." then a large wispy cloud came to a halt in front of me and there was a small screen with the word Higurashi on it. It turned on and I saw Inuyasha. He was holding my body. I couldn't believe it. Then he was with Sesshomaru. At first I couldn't understand them, but then I heard Inuyasha say " because I love her". he loved me? Really? But of course I would have to be dead for him to admit it, but maybe I never gave him the chance…. "Kagome… kagome?" I was in a daze. "This isn't real, I had died, I am dead!" Kagome! My dad shook me. "You have to go now, but remember I love you no matter what. He gave me a kiss on the forehead and I plummeted into darkness. "Tell your mother I said hi!" was the last thing I heard.
