AHAHAHAHAHA! You guys are lovely! Seventy reviews! *sobs* You are all wonderful I love ya! Anyway, *wipes eyes and tries hard to regain her composure* This is the last chapter. There is an epilogue but *evil grin* I might not post it up. It's up to you!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Inuyasha. If I did I would probably ruin the entire show and then no one would watch it. And if they didn't watch it that would mean there would be no fanfictions. So no one would read what other things I write. So no suing.

Last Thing I Wanted By Wyltk

She was able to stay semi-conscious from then on. Sometimes she would be aware of things moving though her eyes remained closed. She was gathering power to keep her eyes open for a long time. A long, long time.

She had to. She had to tell Kaede something. It was very important. She had to tell Kaede. What did she have to tell Kaede? It was very important that she remember. But what was it she had to remember?

Something stirred and she concentrated on that instead. Whatever it was, it was coming closer. Then she could feel it. Something inside of her spoke up and told her to release the power she had been saving to open her eyes. But she didn't want to yet. She wanted to wait a bit longer. But the feeling became more persistent. The feeling that if she didn't open her eyes now she never would.

But it was so nice. wait she had to tell Kaede something. What was it? Who was killing her!

Kagome's eyes jerked open to gaze straight into the face of Kikyo. She pushed her self further into her pillow and kept her eyes open stubbornly. Kikyo looked startled to see her awake and smiled.

"So you are awake. I was beginning to wonder if you were or not. Ever since Inuyasha said he sensed something different about you."

"Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered softly her throat constricting with the energy it took to talk.

"You thought Inuyasha would never love you without your precious hair. Didn't you, you poor thing. But you see he does LIKE you. Of course, he doesn't LOVE you, he could never love you, he loves me. But when you die because of your illness he will be crushed, crushed enough to put all his formally misplaced trust in me. And then I will crush his heart. And when I am through I will run him through with Tetsusaiga! Just as he did to my heart fifty years ago!"

"No." Kagome shook her head slowly wishing more then anything to have the strength to scream. But she could barely keep her eyes open.

"Oh yes, and you will die Kagome. You see I slipped you a potion the night you caught "sick". I got it from a little old which in a forest near here. You see she thought I was some nice girl who needed it to keep someone away who was trying to kill me. She wouldn't let me have it any other way.

"The person who takes this potion, if they are around me constantly, they die within two months. However, a nasty little flaw has been calculated into my plans. You see Kaede knows it's one of the members staying here whose harming you. She's been ordering us away to see which one of us is doing it. But I've taken at least one member away with me every time I leave."

Kikyo brought out a small vial of some sort of potion and added a black lock of hair to it. But that was her hair. How did Kikyo get? Wait the witch, her eyes, something about her eyes.

"But now it all ends and no one will ever realize it. This potion I have in my hand here will kill you within ten minutes. And since you've been so sick only Kaede and maybe a few others will realize you were poisoned but it will be too late to find out who. Isn't that terrible, Kagome?"

Kikyo smiled a cruel smile and jerked Kagome's chin, from her pillow were she had buried it in hopes of saving herself. Once it was clenched firmly in one of Kikyo's hands Kikyo pushed hard between her teeth until she had to open her mouth and then Kikyo started to pour the poison down her throat.

The potion was halfway gone when a terrible cry rent the air. Kikyo and the poison went flying backwards. The vial shattered against the wall raining potion onto the floor. That and the four claw marks on Kikyo's formerly flawless face the only thing to show the force they had been thrown away from Kagome.

"It's too late." Kikyo said with a cruel smile and a glance towards Kagome. Inuyasha who had sailed into Kikyo glared and smashed his hand into the side of her head knocking her out.

Kagome moaned slightly, inaudibly, turning her head to look at the door way which housed the rest of the huts occupants. Miroku and Sango were already starting towards Kikyo with rope. And Kaede was starting towards the vile and poison that had spread on the ground.

Inuyasha ignored them and rushed towards Kagome, as they all knew he would, cradling her in his arms carefully.

"Inu.yasha." she smiled up at him her eyelids fluttering lightly. She smiled sadly and brought her hand up weakly rubbing the side of his face. She closed her eyes peacefully and leaned against him to tired to fight the potions any longer.
