Chapter 1: Heart break

Kagome and the gang were set up for the night from shard collecting, but a certain Hanyou wasn't apart of the group. But everyone knew where he was and who was with him, and Miroku and Sango kept an eye out for Kagome. Kagome wasn't stupid, she knew very well where InuYasha has been...for the past hour! Sango and Miroku also noticed a change in her behavior. She was a lot more, bolder than her usual self, and that couldn't be good for InuYasha now. All of a sudden, she got up and faced toward the forest.

"I'm gonna go get InuYasha, be right back." She said as she started to walk out to the forest.

"Kagome wait!" Yelled Sango running up to her, "Won't want to forget these." She said giving Kagome her bow and arrows.

Kagome smiled and nodded, then walked into the forests.

"I think InuYasha is going to be in serious trouble." Said Miroku as Sango sat back down beside him.

"Yeah, I-" SLAP

"HENTAI! KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF MIROKU!" Yelled Sango as she scooted away from him a bit, at least out of hand range.

Shippo shook his head and said under his breath, "When will he ever learn?"

Kagome walked along the forest, searching for her hanyou friend. She walked along for a good 30 minutes, and right when she was about to give up, she happened across Kikyo's soul collectors.

'I just know this is gonna be bad' She thought hiding herself behind a tree.

When she peered around it, she saw Kikyo in InuYashas' arms, getting ever so comfortable.

"InuYasha," she said in a seductive tone of voice, "why do you always leave me for my incarnation? I hate her for stealing you away from me. Do you love her?"

InuYasha sighed and answered, hugging Kikyo closer, "I don't leave you for her, if anything, it's the other way around. She's nothing to me, I don't love her, I love you Kikyo. She's just a shard detector for me, and once we are done, I'll kill her off and give you the rest of your soul back."

Kikyo turned her head, so she looked straight at Kagome, and smiled. Kagome couldn't take it anymore, but she couldn't bring herself to cry hysterically like she would've. She picked an arrow and placed it in the bow, she took a deep heavy sigh, and then launched it.

The arrow whizzed past InuYashas' little doggie ear, barely missing it. He looked up and in the direction of where the arrow came from and was shocked out of his mind.

"Ka-Kagome?"

Kikyo also looked in that direction and smirked, which made her look pretty ugly!

"It seems that my incarnation can't handle the truth."

Kagome also smirked and replied, "It seems that the bitch I'm incarnated as won't just go to hell!"

"Kagome, what are you doing here?" Asked InuYasha. 'Did she hear what I said?'

Kagome looked at InuYasha and he could see the hate that formed in her lovely brown eyes. A lone tear fell down her cheek as she looked at him.

"So I'm nothing to you InuYasha?" She asked, ice dripping from her words.

"I-"

"I'm nothing but a shard detector?" She asked interrupting him.

"Kagome, listen to me-"

"HELL NO! You're just gonna kill me off and give my soul to that dead, clay pot, bitchy, whore we all know as Kikyo!"

InuYasha growled and said, "Take that back Kagome!"

Kagome gave her own throaty growl, and to InuYasha's surprise, it was a very good one.

"Kagome-" said Kikyo, but before she got to finish, an arrow was sent her way. And in order to get away, she had to let go of InuYasha, which she did.

"I don't want my name coming out of your disgusting mouth. I hear it from you again, and I'll make sure I won't miss next time."

Kikyo glared at Kagome and said, "You, you need to leave me and InuYasha alone. You're not even supposed to be in this era, you need to go back to your own time."

Kagome laughed, but it wasn't one of her regular ones. This one was cold, and unforgiving. InuYasha took a step towards her and Kagome stopped her laughing in a second to place an arrow in her bow.

She pointed in towards his stomach and said, "Take another step InuYasha and my hand is gonna slip and the arrow is going straight for your gut."

InuYasha hesitated in step and his ears drooped a little.

"Kagome, please, just leave. I don't want to face you right now. I'll talk to you about this later on in the night, when it's just the 2 of us."

Kagome shook her head and replied, ice once again forming on her words, "No InuYasha, I'm here now. Talk, tell me everything you would tell me if the clay pot bitch wasn't here. Tell me what you told me the other day, how you loved me, and would never leave me. Ha, I knew it was a lie, but I just couldn't bring myself to tell you I knew."

She pulled the arrow back a little more when she saw InuYasha take another step.

"InuYasha," said Kikyo worriedly, "stop walking to her. She isn't joking, she will let the arrow go if you don't stop."

InuYasha looked back at her and sighed out, "Alright Kikyo."

He started walking backwards, to Kikyo again, and stopped when he was beside her.

"Good boy." Said Kagome mockingly while she lowered her bow, but the arrow still in it, "Now InuYasha, I have some words of advise for you: GO TO FUCKING HELL!"

As soon as she finished her sentence, she pulled the bow back up, and launched the arrow. It whizzed right through Kikyo's shoulder, pinning her to a tree and blowing her whole shoulder off.

"KIKYO!" Yelled InuYasha as he ran over to her, watching the souls pour out of her body from the wound.

Kagome smiled and said before running off back to the group, "Good bye InuYasha."

InuYasha looked at where she once stood, stupefied at what she just did.

'Then she had the nerve to smile.' He thought tending to Kikyo.
