Inuyasha held Kagome in his arms calling out to Kagome. But he got nothing. There was no responds from her. It was like her mind was gone. And not just her mind but her soul. Inuyasha didn't know what to do at this point. He's never seen anything like this before. And he wasn't sure how he could help her. He picked her up and ran to get Miroku's help. After he found Miroku they ran to Kagome's room in a rush. Once they arrived Inuyasha placed Kagome on her bed and talked to Miroku about what had happened... But left out the kissing part.
Knowing Miroku like he does than Miroku wouldn't let it him live it down. Miroku looked at Kagome and saw that her breathing was slightly shallow as he said "so your telling me that she was able to break the seal on the Tetsusiga. Gave it to you than all of a sudden she fainted?" "Yeah that's about right." Said a depressed Inuyasha. Miroku sat in a chair as he said "well... did you sense anything at all? Like a strange aura or something?" Inuyasha nodded as he said "yeah... It was strange but I sensed a strange dark aura coming from the sword as soon as Kagome touched it. The dark aura surrounded her than it just disappeared."
As soon as Miroku heard all of that he was in shock. He was just glad that he wasn't drinking anything at the time cause he would either choke on it or spit his drink at something or someone. Inuyasha asked "why? What's wrong Miroku? Is Kagome going to be alright?" Miroku looked away as he said "Inuyasha... I think that Kagome isn't going to come back." Inuyasha was a little confused as he asked "what do you mean that she won't come back? Kagome is going to wake up Miroku. I know she will be and she'll be alright."
Miroku shook his head as he said "that's not what I mean Inuyasha. When she removed the seal from your sword the darkness had to go somewhere. So it went for the person that broke the seal. Which is Kagome." Inuyasha calmly asked "what do you mean? What's going on Miroku!? I don't understand all of this at all!" Miroku sadly said "Kagome's soul... Is slowly fading into the darkness Inuyasha. I can't do anything to help her. I'm sorry."
Inuyasha went into shock. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He wouldn't believe it, he won't! Miroku saw the anger/sadness in his friend's eyes as he said "I'm sorry Inuyasha. But Kagome's soul is fading to the darkness and nothing can be done. Unless you..." Inuyasha looked up and stared at Miroku as he asked "unless I what?" Miroku looked up as he said "well... The only thing that can be done for her is if you... Give up your human soul for hers."
Inuyasha went into shock at hearing this. If he gave up his human soul than wouldn't he try to harm Kagome in doing so? He doesn't want to become a full demon mindlessly killing people for fun! Kagome would fear him for life! But... if it was to save her he had no choice cause unlike him she had more to live for. Inuyasha looked at Kagome with a strange look as he said "alright... I'll give up my human soul to save her. As long as she can live than I'll be happy. But Miroku do me a favor..."
Miroku didn't like where this was going but he had to ask what it was "what is it Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked at Miroku with a calm stare as he said "if I go berserk... I need you and the rest of the crew to kill me." Miroku went into shock as he said "but Inuyasha! I can't kill you! your my best friend!" "I know Miroku but it's the only way to make sure that I don't end up killing someone. It's bad enough that I tried to kill you all the first time I transformed than again before Kagome came into my room to check up on me. But it has to be done." Said a calm Inuyasha.
Miroku got up as he said "alright... But I won't take part of it. I don't want to be the cause of my friends death. Deal?" Inuyasha nodded as he said "deal. I won't make you kill me. But the rest of the crew will." Than Miroku walked out of the room, leaving Inuyasha alone with Kagome. Inuyasha looked at Kagome as he said "Kagome... I'm so sorry that this had to happen to you. I never wanted anything like this to happen. But it did. I don't blame you if you hate me for it but at least I can save you in the end of it all." He placed his hand on her face as he thought "I'm sorry Kagome... I only wished that I... I love you more than anything else in the world."
In Kagome's Soul
Kagome was running away from something that she didn't know. She couldn't tell what it was. But it looked like a strange mysterious shadow that wanted to swallow her whole. If it did happen she felt like she wouldn't see Inuyasha again or any of her friends. Than she saw someone. She saw all of her friends standing there. This of course confused her. When she got close enough to them she said "guys! We have to get away! That shadow is going to swallow us!" Miroku looked at her with a icy stare as he said "heh, like we should believe you! Do you really think that we're your friends? Ha Captain Inuyasha only wanted us to pretend to be your friends so he could gain your trust and get the treasure. Nothing more nothing less."
Kagome couldn't believe what she was hearing. Miroku always sounded nice, sweet, caring... even if he could be a pervert at times. Than she looked at Sango and Shippo and they gave her the same icy stare. Kagome didn't know what to do anymore. She was about to run until she tripped and when she looked up at her friends they were gone and no one was standing there anymore. Kagome got up again and started to run away from the shadow. Than she ran into someone. When she looked up at that person she saw that it was Inuyasha. He glared at her with a dark, icy evil glare. It sent chills down ehr spine. She calmly said "Inuyasha..." He laughed as he said "what do you want human!"
Kagome was taken back by that as she said "Inuyasha. It's me Kagome!" He stopped laughing as he said "do you really think I care about who you are? Ha! The only thing I care about is the treasure. Not you or anyone!" Kagome started to cry as she said "but... I trusted you with everything Inuyasha! My past, my feelings and my heart and you don't care about me at all!?" Inuyasha started to walk away as Kagome fell to her knees crying her eyes out. Not caring if the darkness took her. She just didn't care anymore.
Kagome was about to be swallowed up by the darkness until something happened. She heard a soft voice saying "Kagome..." Kagome looked up and standing there was a man with long black hair and brown eyes wearing a red hakama. Right away she knew who it was and was shocked. Standing before her was a human Inuyasha. He stared at her as he said "Kagome... Take my hand. I'll get out of this place. If you trust me that is." Kagome saw his eyes and saw that it was the Inuyasha she knew and love. She took his hand and asked "Inuyasha what's going on? Why are you human? Why is that shadow trying to swallow me up?"
He helped her up as he said "well... When you broke the seal on my sword the darkness went into you right after I took my sword from your hands. And that shadow is trying to swallow up your very soul. Also... The reason why I'm human is because the only way to save you... was if I gave you my human soul." Kagome was in shock as she asked "why would you do that Inuyasha?!" He looked at her with loving eyes as he said "because..." "Because why!?" Asked a confused Kagome. He kept staring at her as he said "Kagome... In case this is the last time I see you... I want you to know something... I... I... I... I... love... you."
Kagome was in shock as she said "you love me?" He nodded as he said "yes. I would happily give up my soul to save yours. You have more to live for. I don't. As soon as you wake up I won't be me anymore. But a demon that just wants to kill and has fun doing just that. I'm sorry." Before the shadows approached them Inuyasha gave Kagome a kiss and a light brightly appeared from Kagome and Inuyasha. Even though they were in her soul the kiss was very real to them both.
Back in the Real World
Kagome woke up and the first thing she saw was Inuyasha kissing her. (yeah that's how he had to get his human soul to reach Kagome's soul. I liked that idea heh heh heh) She was so confused at seeing this but she was happy to see him in hte real world this time. When he parted from her he still had his soft gold eyes. She calmly said "Inuyasha..." He smiled for a second until a huge jolt of pain washed through him. He held his head in his hands and ran out the room groaning in pain. Kagome knew what was going on. He was transforming cause he didn't have his human soul anymore. He gave up his human soul to save her.
Kagome ran after him hoping that she could save him. But in a way she felt that it was both wishful thinking and that it was going to be in vain. She followed Inuyasha the deck of the ship and all she could hear was Inuyasha laughing. Kagome didn't like the sound of his laugh as she said "Inuyasha?" He turned to face her with his blood red eyes as he said "sorry the Inuyasha you know is now gone."
