Interlude: Kagome's Tears
Additional disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon either. (No, no part of that story will be used here. I'm just borrowing a song.)
Kagome still felt - well - "out of it" would probably be the best description. Coming back through the well, to the present time, made the whole thing feel even more surreal. It hadn't helped that they hadn't even had a body to bury. She could almost believe that, after a day or so, Inu- Yasha would be climbing back through the well demanding she come back to the feudal period with him.
Inu-Yasha . . . no, no Kagome get a hold of yourself! She stumbled up the stairs, neither hearing nor acknowledging her mother's call. Fumbling into her bedroom, she set her heavy pack down at the foot of the bed. Inu-Yasha always complained about how much I packed. But even as he grumbled he'd take it from me so I didn't have to carry it.
Tears threatening once again, Kagome dived for her bed as if it were the final refuge in the turbulent storm of her emotions. Pain. Agony. The tears began to flow again. Kagome sobbed on her pillow till her ribs hurt.
How will I start tomorrow without you here?
Whose heart will guide me when all the answers disappear?
Is it too late? Are you too far gone to stay?
Best friends forever should never have to go away.
What will I do, you know, I'm only half without you.
How will I make it through?
I'd cry you an ocean if you'd sail on home again.
Waves of emotion will carry you all they can.
Just let love guide you and your heart will chart the course.
Soon you'll be drifting into the arms of your true north.
Look in my eyes, you'll see, a million tears have gone by and still they're not dry.
If only tears could bring you back to me.
If only love could find a way.
What I would do, what I would give if you returned to me someday, somehow, someway,
If my tears could bring you back to me.
I'd hold you close and shout the words I only whispered before,
For one more chance, for one last dance,
There's not a thing that I would not endure,
If my tears could bring you back to me.
"Come back to me. Please come back to me."
