21-Epilogue

It was the final night at the resort and kagome, InuYasha, Sango and Miroku all left to the beech to pay their respects to Kikyo. When they reached they're destination, they instantly started to pray and/or reflect on the times they had with kikyo. Kagome didn't quite know what to say considering she didn't know kikyo very well. In the past she only really talked to her a few times but most of the times she had met kikyo, she was a kind person but others she was stuck up and uncaring, almost heartless.

Flashback

It was Kagome's first day of school and she was nervous. She had gotten through the first part of the day but now it was lunch. Lunch. Where would she sit? Who would she sit with? Who would let her sit with them? As she carried her lunch tray she scanned the room. She saw a beautiful girl who looked a little like her wave her over. On her way over some mean boy, Naraku, stuck his foot out and tripped kagome. Kagome got everything all over herself and she then rushed to the bathroom when she heard laughter. She stood there staring at all the damage to her school outfit. The blouse was now red mainly from the ketchup she used for her fries. Her skirt wasn't bad. A couple stains here and there of juice and ketchup but other then that it was fine. She had a massive bruise from where Naraku had kicked her. That's right. he kicked her to trip her. She didn't notice the girl who had waved her over walk in. She had a wet wash cloth and some hand soap in her possession.

"Need some help?" she smiled. Kagome wiped her tears and smiled back.

"Thanks but will the soap work?" she asked as the girl put soap on the rag.

"Sure it will. The same thing happened to me last year by the same guy. Stay away from him. His name's Naraku. And speaking of names, I'm kikyo."

"Hi Kikyo. Thanks and I'm Kagome."

Flashback ends

Kagome, in her prayers, thanked kikyo for that day. She thanked her for all she has done for her. To her surprise, she heard a voice. Kikyo's voice! It was as if it was the whispers of the wind. It was soft, hardly audible. "Your welcome Kagome. Take care of yourself and InuYasha to for me okay?" and then it was gone. Kagome held a loose fist over her heart and answered her last words to her.

"I promise Kikyo." she solemnly swore her oath. On top the hill she went to the peak and looked over th ocean. The soft breeze blew her hair all around her gently. It never lifted to far above her chin. Her skirt blew and flapped softly towards the ocean. The sun began to set casting the florescent colors their way. Sango and Miroku walked back hand in hand to once again take care of some so called 'business'. InuYasha stood there gawking at how beautiful kagome looked under the sunset light. She still held her hand over her heart. She stood with all her wight on one leg and bent the other so her toe was pointing into the ground. Her other hand was at her side. Her head was bowed in prayer and her eyes were closed. Then she whispered "I promise Kikyo..." she opened her eyes and looked out o sea. The sun had finally set and the stars were out. There was only a trace of sunlight left. She looked up at the sky in thought. Thought of kikyo and her friends and the events that have taken place here. Suddenly, a pair of amrs wrapped themselves around her waist. She jumped, startled and relaxed when she noticed it was InuYasha.

"Ready to go Kagome?"

"Yeah let's go back." she got on InuYasha's back and was surprised to see him go in the oppisite way of the hotel. "InuYasha, where are you taking me?" she asked suspiously. She saw his smirk and knew he wouldn't tell her so she just enjoy her time with him. She giggled at his antics. They soon arrived at the place they fist told the other that they loved the other.

"Kagome there's something I want to ask you."

Kagome looked at him, confused. "I'm listening, what is it?" she asked gently. She put a hand on his arm to back up what she said. InuYasha took a deep breath.

"Kagomewillyoubemymate?" he said really fast.

"Whoa whoa whoa slow down and run that by me one more time?"

"Wi-will you bb-e my m-mate?" he said slowly. He gulped and looked away, expecting rejection.

"Yes" she whispered breathlessly.

"Really?" he looked at her surprised.

"Yes, and don't' look so surprised. I told you I loved you. I hoped you'd ask me this but never thought you would." he smirked at her and stepped forward and kissed her. There is some thing I need to do then. But a warn you kagome it won't be pleasant.

"I'm ready."she said.

"Can you please tilt your head a bit?" she did as she was told. Her eyes went huge when she felt his fangs sink into her soft, delicate skin. Tears sprang to her eyes but she fought them back, knowing InuYasha hated it when she cried, especially when he caused it. She whimpered pitifully and then her was done.

"I'm sorry I had to hurt you." he said lapping up her blood with his tounge. (Sp?)

"That's it?"

"Yup. Now your all mine." he growled. He wiped her tears away and kissed her again.
