"Kagome?" InuYasha asked not sure if she was really dead or just playing around. He sniffed the air...the scent of death emitting from Kagome's body.

"Kagome, stop playing around and wake up damn it!" He growled and shook her. Her hand fell to the side and InuYasha dropped her. She was gone...that's all he knew.

"InuYasha I think we should go back to Kaede," Miroku said staring at his friend. InuYasha glared at him and picked up Kagome's lifeless body.

"You can follow me if you want," InuYasha said to them and jumped onto the treetops back to Kaede's village.

"Shippo are you ok?" Sango asked him. Shippo was shaking from head to toe he didn't know what to do.

"She's dead...it's all my fault...oh my god InuYasha's gonna kill me..." he whined and grabbed Sango's hand.

"HELP ME! HE'S GONNA KILL ME!! AAAAAAHH!!" Shippo screamed. Miroku picked up his staff and whacked Shippo on the head and he toppled over.

"Snap out of it! It's not your fault!" Miroku said scolding. He looked at Shippo knocked out on the ground.

"You think I hit him too hard?" Miroku said bending over to observe Shippo's breathing.

"Can we go now? InuYasha's probably waiting for us," Sango said and picked up Shippo and ran the way InuYasha went.

"Jeez..." Miroku said staring after her when he realized that she wasn't going to turn back to wait for him Miroku ran to catch up. "WAAAAAIT! WAAAAAIT FOR MEEEEEEEEE!"

***************

Sesshoumaru looked for a cave so that they could rest. Luckily he found one not to far from the late Naraku's castle. He set Rin down and waited for Jakken and Ah Un to get there. Finally he saw them in sight still a bit woozy from the poison.

"What took you so damn long?" Sesshoumaru asked Jakken.

"Sorry, mi'lord but I think the poison is still in me," Jakken said bowing.

"Go collect firewood," Sesshoumaru said and kicked Jakken out of the cave. "Ah Un keep Rin company while I go back to the castle to collect what now belongs to me," he said and exited the cave.

"He didn't have to kick me so hard," Jakken said picking up random sticks and branches and bringing them back to the cave. "He's going to kill me one day and watch, no more firewood collector for him," he said again absently reaching for twigs. When he figured they had enough wood he ordered the old man on his staff of heads to light the wood on fire. And soon enough they had a blazing fire right in front of them.

"Sesshoumaru-sama?" Rin asked in her sleep. Ah Un moved closer and provided something soft to sleep on for Rin. She snuggled into Ah Un and fell into a deep sleep once again.

***************

"This is strange," Sango said to Miroku.

"What is?" Miroku managed to say between huffs and puffs.

"This is where we found Ko...but it's not a village anymore, it's more like a...forest," Sango said looking around.

"That's interesting," Miroku said. [a/n: I got the `that's interesting` line from Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean ahaha it's my favorite line...=D]

"Well, let's get going I suppose Ko was an illusionist as well as a yume youkai," Sango said and took a step forward.

"I guess, but can we not run anymore?" Miroku whined and saw that Sango nodded her head. They reached Kaede's village and headed toward her house.

"WHAT'S THIS? YOU SWORE TO PROTECT HER BUT YOU DIDN'T?" Kaede yelled. Miroku and Sango could hear the scream. They heard InuYasha mutter something but it was too soft to hear through the wooden frames so they entered.

"Ok, so her death was my fault whatever, tell me what I have to do to bring her back," InuYasha said pointing at Kagome on the ground.

"I'm afraid it's too late for that..." Kaede said putting her hands to her face.

"What do you mean to late?" InuYasha said getting mad.

"I'm sorry but I think my sister, Kikyo has acquired the soul required for the tensaiga to bring her back," Kaede said.

"Kik...yo?" InuYasha muttered in disbelief. Kikyo has the soul? What the hell is he gonna do now?

"Yes, Kikyo," Kaede said and looked at InuYasha through forgiving eyes.

"What the hell does that mean?" InuYasha said.

Kaede sighed. "It means that you'll have to kill Kikyo in order to bring Kagome back then keep the soul at bay while you take the tensaiga from Lord Sesshoumaru".

"Kill, Kikyo? Do you think I'm really capable of killing her? I still...I still..." InuYasha said not wanting to say the three words that wanted to pop out of his mouth.

"Well, it's either that or Kagome stays dead forever, you hear?" Kaede said.

InuYasha didn't know what to do, he wanted Kagome to live but then he didn't want to kill Kikyo for the second time. He still loved Kikyo even if she thought him as the betrayer.

"GAH!" InuYasha yelled in fury grabbing his head. "I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO FUCKIN' DO!" he began to cry.

"KAMI DAMN THIS!" He yelled and ran out of the house.

Kaede sighed. "He'll pick whether to kill my sister or not...As for me, my sister's already dead," she said to Miroku, Sango and a still unconscious Shippo.

***************

Sesshoumaru stared at the mirror. He decided to spy on his brother and once he found out that his brother's wench had died he decided to not hand over the tensaiga without a bargain or fight.

Sesshoumaru laughed at InuYasha. It was his fault for falling in love with humans just like their father. It disgusted him to think about it. But then again, Rin was human too. I'll make her forget she was human, he thought but with a little doubt suddenly growing inside himself.

He took the mirror and went back to cave. He was content on seeing a fire blazing in front of the cave. Jakken did well, he thought and entered the cave. He found Ah Un and Rin were he left them. Rin was sleeping and Ah Un was watching the fire. Sesshoumaru picked Rin up and set the mirror down. Rin opened her eyes and saw Sesshoumaru carrying her close to the fire. She smiled and snuggled herself onto Sesshoumaru's...fluffy scarf...thing. [a/n: what? I dunno what it's called...so I call it the fluffy scarf thing! =P]

He looked down at her, she was awake he told himself and he sat down by the fire Rin in his arms.

"Sesshoumaru-sama?" Rin asked looking up at him his golden eyes looking back at her. "Does Sesshoumaru-sama love Rin-chan?"

He didn't know how to respond to this. He never knew what love was like. No one ever showed him...no one ever asked him this question before, either. He continued to look at her and she continued waiting patiently for his answer.

"Never mind, Sesshoumaru-sama doesn't have to answer that..." Rin said hurt showing in her eyes and she looked down. He noticed that she was hurt because he didn't answer her. Do I love her? He asked himself unsure of his answer. His mind said, no, she was a human, but his heart said yes.

***************

It was late at night and once again everyone was sleeping except for InuYasha. It was a new moon tonight and InuYasha was in his human form. He quietly crept back into Kaede's house and saw Kagome on the floor. He dropped to his knees took her hand in his and looked at her.

"Kagome...Kagome I'm sorry," InuYasha said. "I didn't protect you when you needed it and...I guess your death was all my fault," He said tears began forming in his eyes. He forced himself not to cry by biting his lip.

"I...I don't wanna kill Kikyo but...I still want you to live," He said while again biting his lip. "I've lost three people that were important to me and you were one of them..."

"I swear I can be so selfish sometimes but...deep down inside I just want to let you know that..." He chuckled the thought of him saying things that she would never hear.

"I just want to let you know that...I love you" He sighed. "And I've loved you ever since the day we met," and he let go of her hand and sat in a corner crying silently.

Miroku heard everything that InuYasha said. He lost three people? So maybe it was...Kagome, Kikyo and...His mom? Miroku thought and silently edged his way back to his room that Kaede prepared to ponder about what he just heard.

InuYasha heard the floorboard creak. He wasn't in his youkai form but his hearing was still extremely good and Miroku was known to not be so slick.

"Miroku I know that's you and I know you've heard everything I've said and...I just want to let you know that if you say anything about this in the morning I'll rip your head off with my own two hands," InuYasha said staring into the darkness.

Miroku gulped and ran into the room. He was scared. InuYasha laughed silently knowing that he scared Miroku and he drifted off to sleep.

"So what's your decision?" Kaede asked him.

"I'm killing Kikyo," InuYasha said. "You know were I can find her?"

"You're really speaking the truth?" Kaede asked him knowing that InuYasha still loved Kikyo. InuYasha nodded.

"I know that, that was a very hard decision but...are you sure?" Kaede asked and InuYasha nodded again.

"Your funeral," Kaede said. "I'll be watching over Kagome so hurry back." [a/n: I got `your funeral` from Johnny Depp once again in Pirates of the Caribbean when he told Barbossa that blah blah blah go watch the movie =D]

InuYasha set out all by himself. He didn't want company in killing Kikyo. Kagome's soul was to be brought back by him and him only. The wind blew in his face he sniffed the faint smell of Kikyo in a village to the far West. Guess I'll be going there, he thought and ran on the treetops in search of Kikyo.
