5 Days to Live-Chapter 1

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha! But I am SO close! A/N: This took place in the episode "Showdown at Naraku's Castle." The exact time is after Kagome shot the sacred arrow at Naraku. This is my version on what should have happened after.

"I won't let you get away! Even if you beg for forgiveness!" said Kagome as she shot an arrow at Naraku.

"I won't die by an amateur priestess like you," said Naraku as he was getting pierced by Kagome's sacred arrow. "Here's a parting gift." Naraku then threw a spear head at Kagome.

"Ka-Kagome!" yelled Inuyasha as the spear flew straight towards her left shoulder.

"Uhh..." the spear had pierced Kagome and Naraku had gotten away with only a head. Naraku's voice suddenly filled the castle.

"The poison shall take full effect in five days. She will die. During those five days the girl will remain useless. And no one knows the antidote. Wait! Someone does...and that would be your brother, Inuyasha. Sesshomaru is the only person that knows the antidote."

The castle began to dissolve with the miasma.

"The castle was a fake. That is not surprising if the decoy is by Naraku," Miroku said as he walked over to Inuyasha.

"I'm-I'm so sorry..." said Sango. "If only I wasn't lured into Naraku's trap!"

"It's okay, Sango," Kagome said weakly. "This wasn't your fault. We all have been deceived by Naraku...

Inuyasha then picked up Kagome and began to walk towards to way of the Sacred Tree. Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara followed a few paces behind. Miroku then silently told the three to stop following Inuyasha and Kagome.

"Let's let them be alone for a while. We'll all catch up later. Inuyasha, we will be at Kaede's!" said Miroku.

"Eh..." was all Inuyasha said.

A/N: How was that? This will be Inu/Kag! Sorry all Sess/Kag fans! I love the Inu/Kag pair! Please review! Man, this chappie is so short! I didn't mean for it to be this short! Well, I like short chappies!
