Chapter 25:kikyo's funeral and final goodbyes
Kagome looked at Inuyasha to see what his reaction was and all he did was nod. 'Maybe Inuyasha really does want me and not her' Kagome thought as she turned around and went into the hut and sat down for a bit.
A few moments later Sango walked into the hut. "Hey um Kagome, what's wrong?" Sango asked as she took a seat next to the quiet miko.
Kagome stared at the floor for a few moments before she looked at Sango with a huge smile on her face. "Why would there be anything wrong Sango? Nope everything is fine here!" Kagome said in a loud cheery voice.
"I'm not buying it Kagome" Sango said as she raised her eyes brow at the distressed girl.
Kagome let out a sigh before turning her attention back to the floor, "Everything seems so unreal" Kagome said as she turned to look at Sango with tears in her eyes. "I mean first Inuyasha and Kikyo are together, then I try to kill Inuyasha, then I run home, and then I don't remember anything after that, and then I wake up hearing that I am supposed to be dead and that I'm Inuyasha's mate and I committed suicide and then I tried to kill Inuyasha again when really I'm supposed to be dead. Then I get home and my room is black when it was pink, and then I go to my closet and everything is black, and, and" Kagome stopped before so just began to sob into her hands. And now Kikyo's dead because I killed her!!!!" Kagome yelled before she continued to cry even harder.
Sango was shocked to the spot. 'What do I say to that?' Sango asked herself. Sango then pulled Kagome into a hug and began to slowly rub her back in soothing motions while trying to calm her down. "Kagome it wasn't your fault"
"Then who's was it?" Kagome yelled.
"It was the fairy demoness that had been the cause of your memory loss and now she is the reason why Kikyo is dead. You fought Kikyo for Inuyasha and by all demon rights Inuyasha belongs to you now." Sango said in a commanding manner. "So stop your bitching Kagome, you have to step up to the plate and finish that demon off before she destroys you and Inuyasha and takes the Shikon Jewel." Sango yelled out even louder.
"Your right! After this funeral, that bitches head is mine" Kagome said in a dark voice as she turned and looked over at Inuyasha who looked back at Kagome and watched her walk away.
Inuyasha then turned and faced Kikyo's body, "What are you thinking Kagome?"
Kagome continued walking till she reached a hill that over look the village. She let out a small sigh as she sat down in the think green grass. While sitting there Kagome could see everyone and the whole funeral beginning. Kagome then scooted over to a rock next to her and laid against it and looked up at the sky. "Inuyasha doesn't need me for the ceremony. I'm sure he would rather be alone with out me" Kagome said to the air as she let out another sigh and looked back down at the village.
"Whatever the reason for you believing that, just for the record I personally think its bullshit that you think that Kagome" said the figure behind her causing Kagome to jump out and pull out a dagger.
Kagome turned to the speaker and took a step back. "Inuyasha?" Kagome said as she lowered the dagger,
"Kagome what are you doing out here?" Was all he could ask as he watched the insecure girl in front of him.
"Nothing I was just thinking" Kagome said as she sat back down.
"About me and Kikyo" Was all he said before snatching Kagome up by her arm and forcing her to look him in the eyes.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha please don't hurt me" Kagome said as she started to cry and threw her arms around him.
Inuyasha looked at Kagome with hurt in his eyes. "You actually think I would hurt you?"
Kagome gasped as she took a step back and shook her head and looked down. "No I don't really think that but I am just so confused" Kagome said as she started to cry as she fell to her knee's in front of Inuyasha.
"How can you love me Inuyasha? I killed Kikyo…" Kagome whispered. "That and I don't even know who I am anymore. How can you be so sure that I am not the fairy demon herself out to kill you again?" Kagome sobbed out.
Inuyasha had enough. He then grabbed Kagome and pinned her down to the ground and bit her ear and yelled at her. "Kagome is you keep you fucking yapping about this shit I am going to punish you for your stupid ness! I am not mad about you killing Kikyo! I told you that already. I wanted you as my mate, not her! I know you are my mate because you bare my mark! The fairy demon didn't! Kagome I love you and only you." Inuyasha said as he pulled Kagome into his arms and kissed her passionately. "Please stop saying all this bullshit, you not only hurting yourself but your hurting me." Inuyasha said as he continued to kiss Kagome softly and nuzzling her neck with his face.
Kagome relaxed and stop crying. "I'm sorry Inuyasha, I love you to and I don't want to hurt you anymore" Kagome said as she wrapped her arms around Inuyasha. Kagome then let go of him and stood up and smiled. "Shall we return?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha smiled and nodded his head.
When Inuyasha and Kagome returned everyone looked up and smiled. "Hey there you guys are" Miroku said as he stood up from his sitting spot.
"What are they doing now?" Inuyasha asked.
"They are about to burn her body but they decided to wait till you two were back" Sango said as she walked up to the three with Shippo and Kirara with her. "So are you going Kagome?" Sango Said as she looked at Inuyasha who looked at Kagome and Kagome smiled. "Yeah I'm going Sango" Kagome smiled as she looked at Inuyasha.
Kagome and the gang all walked up the shrine steps where they saw Kaede lighting the fires Inuyasha let out a small sigh and Kagome grabbed his hand and gave it a comforting squeeze causing Inuyasha to relax. "thanks" was all he said, Kagome smiled and nodded. Kaede say they group and walked over to them with a light smile.
"They are about to begin the ceremony, Inuyasha would you like to help us With Kikyo's body?" Kaede asked as she looked at Kagome and Inuyasha. Inuyasha looked at Kagome, Kagome smiled and nodded her head. "I don't mind Inuyasha." Kagome said as she nuzzled his face with hers causing him to relax. Inuyasha then turned to Kaede and nodded.
Inuyasha then followed Kaede into the shrine, leaving Kagome with the others. "Kagome may I ask why you let him go?" Asked Sango. Kagome looked at Sango and smiled. "Inuyasha was closer to her then anyone, plus she loved him and he had loved her at one point. It would only be right if he had said his last good byes as well as put Kikyo to rest for once and for all." Kagome said.
"Yes we know that but are you upset at all about letting him go?" Asked Miroku. "No" was all Kagome said.
Miroku and Sango looked at each other a shrugged; maybe Kagome really was over it. But they wouldn't know other wise until she said something.
A few hours later Inuyasha had come out, he looked depressed and was slightly sweating from the heat of the fire that was burning in the shrine. He walked up to Kagome and tugged on her hand to get her attention like a child would. Kagome looked at him and somehow understood what he wanted and nodded, she looked at the others. "We'll be right back" Kagome said as she jumped on Inuyasha's back and they took off into the night.
"Sango where do you think they are going?" Asked Miroku.
"I suppose he needs comfort and doesn't want us to see him like this." Sango said with a small sigh.
"Inuyasha can be so stubborn sometimes, but still I can understand why he wants away from here and into Kagome's arms" Shippo said with a sad voice.
"Why is that Shippo?" Miroku and Sango asked.
"Because Kagome reminds Inuyasha of Kikyo. He must be thinking about how it would be if he buried Kagome like that." Said Shippo.
"Maybe when they come back we will know, until then I'm not expecting them for the rest of the night. We should all get some sleep. We had a long day today" Said Miroku as he stood up and started off towards the hut followed by everyone else.
