BREAK
A/N: So it's finally over. Thank goodness. Not a part of me wanted to write this fic about three chapters in. But I'm really, really happy that you all like it. Thank you, you really don't know how much it means to me. To have people like the creation you don't is truly something that makes me happy.
Oh yeah! I beat Kingdom Hearts 2! Woot woot! Yaaay I'm so proud! I couldn't beat the first one, so at least I beat one of 'em.

"What the fuck are you doing with Kagome?" Seiryo roared.
Inuyasha let go of his hold on Kagome and unleashed his Tetsusaiga from its sheath. "Kagome, move back… Lemme fight this bastard…" He half-shoved Kagome out of the way so he could get her out of his battle zone.
"Stop it!" Kagome screamed through tears as the two of them charged at one another: Inuyasha with his Tetsusaiga and Seiryo with Shippo's kitsune bi.
The battle seemed to go on forever, and Kagome couldn't do anything about it. She could see the expressions on their bloody faces. Their expressions meant that they were determined to fight to the death, and that just ripped Kagome apart inside. She felt like running away, but she couldn't. She was in shock. She wanted to close her eyes, but whenever she did she would draw the worst conclusions from the shouts and cries of pain she heard.
They scratched each other's faces. They sliced skin like it was food. The thick red liquid was everywhere in everything. In your eyes, your nose, your mouth, on your skin, everywhere.
Kagome felt the tears prickling in her eyes, their warm liquid running down her pale cheeks. Why were these two fighting over her? She realized that if she hadn't come to the Feudal Era in the first place, then none of this would've ever happened. Shippo would even still be alive. She hated herself, but there was nothing she could do.
The two were stuck looking into each other's eyes. Inuyasha's sword was pointing at Seiryo, but Seiryo's hands were on both sides of the blade, holding it away from him.
"Why can't you find your own girl?" Inuyasha snarled. "Kagome's mine and she's been mine for as long as I can fucking remember!"
"If Kagome's yours then why did you run away from her - twice? Why can't you just find another dead chick?"
"That's none of your fucking business!" Inuyasha growled and quickly lifted his Tetsusaiga from Seiryo's hands and shoved it directly through Seiryo's chest, having the blade come out through his back.
The last thing Seiryo heard was Kagome's scream before he felt himself leaving Shippo's body.

As Shippo (the real Shippo) opened his eyes, he heard a sob escape from Kagome's mouth. He saw both Inuyasha and Kagome kneeling over him, Kagome in tears and Inuyasha with his trademark scowl.
"Seiryo! I'm so glad you're awake!" Kagome cried, putting a hand on Shippo's shoulder.
"Seiryo?" he thought aloud, "Who's Seiryo?"
Kagome looked puzzled and mumbled to Inuyasha, "Maybe he has amnesia… Seiryo, do you remember me?"
Still confused as ever, Shippo answered, "You're Kagome… hey… what's wrong with my voice?" He went to lift his hand to his throat, but he was stopped when he felt the sharpest pain he'd ever felt surge through his body. "Unghh…!"
As Shippo struggled to stop the pain, Kagome and Inuyasha looked at each other with troubled eyes. "What's wrong with this guy?" Inuyasha asked.
"Seiryo… Stop moving!" Kagome said softly. "Inuyasha put his sword through you, remember? If you aren't careful, your wound will open up."
"Why would Inuyasha do that to me?" Shippo whispered.
"Seiryo, why are you saying these things? Don't you understand?"
"I guess I don't. I don't even know who Seiryo is. I'm Shippo, incase you forgot."
Shippo saw Kagome's eyes grow wide, with tears dropping out of them soon after. "Shippo…?"
"Kagome," he cried, all the pain in his voice, "What happened to me?"
And this is where Inuyasha stepped in - to inform them both of the truth. "Shippo… You got possessed by the demon who called himself Seiryo. Seiryo gulped down the Jewel of Four Souls and made a wish that puny Shippo was a big, mature Shippo. He wanted Kagome's power and he was planning on eating her. He tried to make her fall in love with him so it would be easier for him to lure her into his trap. Then me and him fought, I impaled him, he left your body… Now I guess it's back to normal?"
"No, it's not back to normal!" Kagome said after regaining the ability to breathe (she was very surprised). "Shippo isn't a kid anymore. And he still has the Shikon No Tama."
"It's alright, Kagome. I don't think I'll be staying around much longer…" Shippo murmured, a painful look on his face.
"Why not?"
"If this pain doesn't kill me… Then I'll probably do it myself."
Kagome felt the all too familiar tears fall down her cheeks again. "Why? Why suicide? You can't!"
"I've hurt you both too much… how can you even bare to look at me? Even though I wasn't in control, I still betrayed you." Shippo's age difference obviously aged his thinking. "Plus, you thought I was gone this whole time anyway, so what difference would it make?"
"It would still make a deep impact in me," Kagome said. "In all of us."
Shippo simply shook his head. "My mind is made up. Please leave me here. Don't look back, don't try to help. I'm begging you."
BREAK
A/N: Yeah… That's the end. I'm sorry it was so short and pooey. I honestly didn't know what to write. I guess it's kind of one of those endings where you can decide on your own what happens… Like, if Kagome helps him, if he goes through with it, etc etc…
Please look out for my next story, coming in two weeks, not one. I need to get my thoughts together on my next one. I want it to be good.
