Okay you reviewer out there! Here is the final chapter for this story. The next story, Violet Skylark, is coming soon. It's after this, by 3 years.

When Myoga showed up, it was the last straw for Inu-Yasha. His left eye began to twitch in anger. Kagome jumped and ran back, Shippo, Miroku, Sango, and Kirara were close behind. They could only hope for the almost lifeless Ikimono.
Inu-Yasha strutted over to the tiny Myoga. He was full of angry fire and bent low to the ground. Myoga looked up at him.
"Uh, Master Inu-Yasha? I-is something wrong?" Myoga nervously asked.
At that, Inu-Yasha exploded. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'IS SOMETHING WRONG?'! HELL YES THERE IS! WITH YOU! YOU ALWAYS RUN AWAY AT THE SLIGHTEST HINT OF DANGER!"
"B-but Master-"
"SHUT UP AND GET THE HELL AWAY FROM US! YOU'RE NO USE SO GO!"
Myoga looked a lot scared and trembled under the mighty Inu-Yasha's wrath. He looked to Kagome for support, but she just turned her nose up and looked away, arms folded across her chest. Myoga hung his head and turned around. He jumped as fast as he could to as far as he could.
Shippo kind of sadly looked up at Kagome and quietly said,"I guess that's the last we'll see of Myoga the flea."
Miroku heard his tone and looked down. He smiled a slight smile, winked, and shook his head all at once. Myoga always came back. Shippo smiled and sighed. He hated things to change and people to go.
Sango was watching the whole thing out of the corner of her eye. It surprised her how well Miroku was working with Shippo. She wondered if he was this good with all kids. Maybe if the lecherous monk was good with all sorts of kids she'd--... Sango shook her head as hard as she could. How could she be thinking such things at a time like this?
"Something wrong?"Kagome slyly asked.
Sango looked at her and gulped. "No, nothing is wrong. Nothing at all."
"That's funny. You've been staring at Miroku through the corner of your eye for ten minutes now."
"Y-you noticed?"
"Yep. He hasn't though."
"What are you two talking about? What's this about Miroku?" Shippo loudly asked, oblivious to the fact that they were whispering so that nobody would know what they were discussing.
Miroku turned his head in surprise to the blushing Sango and the amused Kagome.
"If I didn't know better, I'd say you were becoming quite fond of me, Lady Sango,"he said in a bemused tone.
"You know,"the monk began thoughtfully.
'Please don't let him ask. Please don't let him ask. Oh, Kami, don't let him ask-'Sango thought.
"Please bear my child."
Sango made that 'urk!' noise and facefaulted. Kagome got a sweatdrop.
Quickly, Sango regained her composure and--
*WHAP!*
Miroku held a hand to his face where he had been struck. A bright, glowing red handprint was there and he winced when he touched it. Sango held her own hand where it stung from hitting him so hard.
Kirara rolled her eyes in an almost human way and left. Shippo struggled not to laugh. Kagome looked at Inu-Yasha and their eyes met. They both thought the same thing; 'Those two!'
Suddenly, Shippo gasped and pointed to the patch of smashed grass where Ikimono had been laying. Some blood drops dripped away in a trail, but Ikimono was gone.
The group moved to the spot and Inu-Yasha began using his nose as a tracking device. The little scene of Miroku and Sango was quickly forgotten by all.
After a long while, Inu-Yasha decidedly got up and said, "She's been gone for a long time. I'm guessing since about the time Myoga left."
"Maybe that's what Myoga was trying to tell us," Miroku mumbled.
Sango nodded her agreement with Kagome and Shippo.
Inu-Yasha hung his head, then continued,"She's been gone too long for me to find her now. There are no other scents around, so she must have not wanted us to know."
Kagome and Shippo's eyes filled with tears and Sango looked on the verge of them. Miroku looked on the verge of hugging Sango to 'comfort' her. He thought twice when he remembered his cheek. So instead he put a hand on her shoulder and she didn't shrug it away.
Inu-Yasha, on the other hand, was freaking out about Kagome's tears. "C'mon Kagome stop crying. We can look for her if you want to," He desparately offered.
"No. She's a grown, uh, demon. She did this on her own adn we should respect what she wants," Kagome said, wiping away the tears and looking brightly to the snow covered mountain.
The sun shone down all around them and the snow was falling off the trees. It was a beautiful sight.
"This is goodbye, Ikimono," Sango, Shippo, and Kagome quietly said together.
Miroku did a small prayer, and Inu-Yasha looked to the far ahead mountain with squinted eyes. A breeze blew their words to the mountain that Inu-Yasha watched.
And from somewhere on that mountain, Ikimono heard those words and turned her head to the direction. "Goodbye Inu-Yasha and Kagome and Mirokku and Sango and Shippo and Kirara. Thanks for everything."
Then Ikimono turned her back to them and began her trip home. To her offspring and mate.
From somewhere else, Amai began her reckless destruction, several times worse than Naraku had ever done. She was only begining her terror. Soon she would learn how to steal souls and soon she would destroy Ikimono. And in a few years, she would meet Inu-Yasha and friends again.
But that is yet to come.

Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you! Since her daughter is like 13 and Ikimono looks like she's 20, Ikimono ages really slowly. Did I tell/write that earlier. Gomen Nasai! Read and review!
