Summary Jakotsu prepares for death
Jakotsu lay beneath the rubble alone with his thoughts. Inuyasha had run off without killing him refusing to kill a helpless knowing that Jakotus would come after him if he recovered from his wounds.
That sense of honor was one of the things that had attracted him to Inuyasha. A good-looking guy who could give him a good fight was the most important thing in life.
He could have killed Inuyasha when he was a helpless human, but his desire to hold Inuyasha in his arms just a little longer made him drag out the inevitable. You just did not meet men like Inuyasha every day. It was important to him to savor the moment before he showed Inuyasha the mercy that Jakotsu knew that Inuyasha would never ask for.
What more could he accomplish in this life? He had been given a second chance to come back and do everything that he wanted to do. Fought a great fight against a great looking guy. He could die happy now.
As he drifted, Rennkotsu came into view. When Jakotsu saw that Renkotus was going to take his shard, he smiled and mouthed. Although Rennkotsu would never understand, he was doing exactly what Jaikosu wanted him to do.
Having done everything that he wanted to do in this life, Jakotsu was ready to go. He had no malice toward Rnnkotsu. Renkotsu was simply giving him release Inuyasha had refused him.
It was a good day to die.
