In episode 42 of Inuyasha, Inuyasha finds out that the Shikon shards that Kikyo had stolen from Kagome, was given to Naraku! How could she give him the shards willingly?? Anyway... Inuyasha is hurt real bad and is resting inside a hut. This is what he thinks to himself.
"Kikyo handed Naraku the Shikon Shards."
"Kikyo, Who died once."
"Kikyo, who was made again from clay."
"Kikyo, who hates me."
"Kikyo, who tried to kill Kagome."
"Where are you....."
"My Kikyo."
So I just had to make a story where Kagome finally gets pee'd off and tells Inu off. I was thinking about making this a ONE-SHOT fic, but naw!! I need to post now and know what u think about it!!! When I get 15 reviews... I'll post the next chapter.

Kagome's Confession
******
"Kikyo! Come back here!" He started to run after her. "Kikyo! Wait for me!"
The fleeing Priestess name Kikyo stopped as requested. "What is it that you want, Inuyasha?" She smiled. "Me, I hope."
"Kikyo. Listen," he said.
All the while Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango watched.
"I need to know why you did it!" Inuyasha yelled at her. "Why did you betray me?"
She laughed/snorted. "Why do you care what I did? I have my reasons."
"Then tell us why, Kikyo!" Kagome shouted.
Kikyo looked over Inuyasha's shoulder at her reincarnation. "I'll tell you why," she said, stepping up to whisper into Inuyasha's ear. "It's because I still want my revenge on you."
Inuyasha was shocked. He wanted to pull away from her embrace, but he couldn't.
"Kikyo..." he said.
"Inuyasha..." she said loud enough for everyone else to hear. "Do you still love me?"
Inuyasha could only blink. "Kikyo... I..."
Kagome stepped back in shock. *Is he going to say it...!* she mentally yelled to herself. *Inuyasha! No!*
"Kikyo. I... I... still care for you a lot..."
She smirked. That's all she wanted to hear. She pushed him away and he stumbled back. "I'm leaving now. Don't follow me or you'll regret it." She turned to leave.
Inuyasha reached out for her from his sitting position on the ground. "Kikyo! Wait! I just want to help you!"
She ignored him and continued walking. She knew her reincarnation would be plenty pissed.
*Maybe I should have kissed him* she thought with a smirk. *He's still in love with me, and always will be. You have lost, Kagome* Her soul snatchers surrounded her and took her away.
Inuyasha watched in shock as the girl he had loved was whipped away by her demons. "Kikyo..." He heard a snob behind him and turned around just in time to see Kagome running blindly off into the forest toward the village. She had her hands covering her face. He could smell... tears? Coming from Kagome?
He stood up and brushed himself off. He looked at Miroku and Sango wanting answers to Kagome's behavior, but both, including the little Shippo, were glaring at him.
"What!?" he yelled.
"How could you do that with Kagome standing right there, you jerk!" Shippo yelled, hugging Sango's leg.
"Didn't you think about Kagome's feelings at all!?" Sango yelled at the half demon. "The poor girl is hurt enough when you talk about Kikyo, but did you have to admit you still loved her right in front of Kagome's face!!"
"They are right, Inuyasha," Miroku said. "Even I would not have done a deed such as to confess my love for another in front of someone else I cared deeply for."
Inuyasha growled. "What are you talking about? Kagome's mad because I answered Kikyo's question!?"
Sango and Shippo turned their backs on him and started to walk back toward the village.
Miroku stayed behind. "Maybe you should have answered it in a less tactful manner. Or maybe even given Kikyo the answer Kagome wanted you to."
"And what answer would that be?" Inuyasha said, still growling, but starting to loosen up. "You saw what happened! What could I have done!"
"You could have told Kikyo that you were only there as a friend now, and that you just wanted to help. To actually admit that you still have feelings..."
"Shut up, Monk." He paused. "Why does Kagome care anyway?" He raised one eyebrow.
"She is your friend, Inuyasha. As are the rest of us. I cannot tell you why she was hurt by what you did, for I am not Kagome. Maybe you should go ask her yourself so that some things might be cleared up between you two."
Inuyasha's fee'd. "Fine. Whatever." And he took off jumping tree to tree to the village.
Miroku sighed and started to walk back. He had to make sure everything was going to be all right.
***
Kagome was shocked beyond belief. She had always known it. But the fact that he had finally confirmed her suspicion was too much for her to handle. She tried to keep the tears from coming. She wanted to see what was going to happen next. Then Kikyo walked away. Kagome knew their conversation was over. She turned around and fled, finally letting all her grief wash over her. She cried all the way to Kaede's hut.
"Why, what is wrong, child?" Kaede asked surprised when Kagome rushed in.
Kagome ran to Kaede and embraced the older priestess, crying. Eventually Kagome slid to the floor, bring Kaede down with her to hold her.
"Kagome. Tell me what has happened to cause you such sadness."
Kagome sniffed trying to hold her tears back. "In... Inuyasha," she whimpered. "And Kikyo. He said..." she sniffed again, "he said..." she trailed off. She couldn't repeat it.
"Sush, now. Do not worry yourself about Inuyasha. You are stronger then that."
She sniffled another cry. "He still loves her," she cried, letting it all go again.
"Kagome!" she heard Sango yelled. Shippo, Sango, and Kirara burst through the door. "Are you alright?"
Kagome held her tears back and nodded.
"Inuyasha is on his way, I'm sure. If you want to go home, this would be the time to do it," Sango smiled at her friend. She knew she wanted to get away for while. To get away from Inuyasha.
Kagome nodded and tried to smile. "Thanks, Sango."
"You'll come back soon, right, Kagome?" Shippo asked.
She nodded. "As soon as I work things out."
She grabbed her bag and turned to thank Sango.
Sango nodded her Welcome. "Here, take Kirara to the well. She'll get you there faster then if on foot."
Kagome nodded to the little kitty, whipping her eyes. "Thanks, Kirara."
The little kitty meowed and ran outside to transform.
Kagome and everyone else followed to wave their friend off. Kagome had just gotten on Kirara's back when Inuyasha came jumping over the trees. He landed a few feet down the rocky walk to Kaede's hut.
"And where do you think your going in your condition?" he asked.
"What condition?" she tried to sound natural.
"Feh. I want to know why you were crying. And I wanted to see if you were OK." His tone softened.
"Why do you care?" Kirara turned her back on Inuyasha and started to walk Kagome to the well.
"Hey!" Inuyasha jumped in front of the cat demon stopping them in their tracks. He ignored Kirara and yelled at Kagome instead. "Where do you think your going?"
"I'm going home! Where else!"
"But we have to hurry and find the rest of the jewel shards before Naraku does!"
"And why should I care!? It's not like you care about anyone but yourself anyway."
That stung. Inuyasha yelled. "What makes you think that!? I allowed Miroku and Sango to join us on our search. I wanted to help Miroku with his air void and I felt sorry for Sango for what Naraku did! How can you say I don't care about anyone!"
Tears swelled in Kagome's eyes. She was mad. She was mad at herself for liking the idiot half demon. She was mad at him for not liking her back. She was mad because he didn't understand.
"Did you ever stop to think how I felt, Inuyasha!? All those times I saw you with Kikyo. All those times I witnessed how much you still care for her. But I always shrugged it off. I understood you loved her. I understood that you never really let her go from your heart. But I'm tired of understanding. I'm tired of always being hurt by you!"
Inuyasha was shocked by her outburst. He stood there for a moment with nothing to say. When the words finally came to him, he let her have it.
"How can you say that!? You have no idea what I've gone through in my life! The one person that ever cared for me died when I was young. When I met Kikyo, it was like I was living everything with my mother over again. Someone actually cared for me."
Kagome started to cry. Not in hard gasps, but enough for her eyes to overflow with tears and run down her cheeks.
"Why are you crying, wench! Tell me! I know there's more to it. I have no idea how this fight even started!"
"What did you do, Inuyasha, to hurt me?" He looked at her. He didn't know. "You don't know, do you? What do you always do to hurt me? You're always comparing me to Kikyo! You always run off to Kikyo! But what about me!?" She broke down in snobs. "What about me, Inuyasha!?"
"Kagome...?" Inuyasha was confused. He was mad AND confused. *Where is she going with this?* "WHAT about you?" he yelled back, but not so harsh this time.
Kagome stopped her crying in shock. "Inu...yasha..." Her eyes over flowed again as she glared at him. "You jerk! Do you know why I always come back here from my time!? It's so I can be with you! You! The insensitive jerk! I accept you for who you are!!! Kikyo never did! She wanted you to be human for her! But I never did!" She paused to break down into a few more snobs, trying to think of what else she had to say.
"Kagome..." he said softly. "What are you...?"
"I always thought that I might have a chance. You always protected me! You made sure I was safe. You put your own life before my own! I figured all our little fights were just love quarrels, but I knew.. I knew.. Inuyasha. You still love her. After what you said to her today.."
"Kagome..."
"Don't you see, Inuyasha!" she yelled interrupting him. "I accept you for who you are, because I love you! I love Inuyasha, the half demon! I would never want to change that about you! But I have no say in it, do I? You love her... and not me. So it doesn't matter anymore." She broke down again and cried into Kirara's mane. "Go be with her! I don't care anymore! I'm going home, and don't try to bring me back. I won't come for someone I can't love." Kirara figured Kagome was done yelling and took off toward the well, living a bewildered Inuyasha behind.
***
Everyone just kind of stood there, having witnessed the whole fight between Kagome and Inuyasha.
t."
The half demon just stood in place, starring after Kagome and Kirara. He was shocked, to say the least. When he realized she had left, he growled deep in his chest.
"Damnit!" He slammed his fists into the ground. "Kagome!"
"She's not coming back, is she?" Shippo asked Miroku, tears in his eyes.
Miroku sighed. "No, Shippo. I think not."
"Damnit! Damnit! Damnit!" Inuyasha yelled. He was really yelling at himself for being so blind.
*Why didn't I see it before!!! I might have lost her forever now!! And it's all my fault!!!*
"Inuyasha," Kaede said walking up to place a hand on the half demon's shoulder. "Me thinks ye should go after her."
"What good would that do?" he asked softly. He hurt. Kagome's words had stung him. "Even if she forgave me, what chance would I have with her after today?" He looked up at Kaede. "I..." he gulped, "love her, but.. I still care for Kikyo, as well."
Kaede shook her head. "That is something you must figure out on your own. Just remember the words of a wise old woman. Love never truly dies, it is always reborn." Inuyasha looked at her and blinked, not understanding. She sighed. "Kikyo's soul is now Kagome's. What love Kikyo had for ye is no longer. Only Kagome can love ye now. Not Kikyo."
Inuyasha nodded and stood up, finally understanding. "But.. what should I tell her...?"
"Tell Lady Kagome only the truth. She will understand."
He nodded and closed his eyes. "I would do anything to protect her. But this time, I was the one to inflict the pain upon her."
Kaede nodded. "Yes, ye was, Inuyasha. And ye are the only one that can heal it."
Inuyasha looked up at his friends who nodded.
"She's always trusted you," Sango said. "She had to trust you, if she loved you. If you want to regain her trust again, you have to confront her, like she did you."
"Lady Sango is right. We've seen it since we joined with you, Inuyasha. You and Lady Kagome have always had an attraction toward each other, if the both of you knew it or not. You need to explain to her that Kikyo means a lot to you still, because of her death. Because you were unable to protect her from it. That is why you protect Kagome today. You, in a way, feel like that by protecting her, you are making up for your mistakes in the past."
Inuyasha could only nod. The monk had him there.
"Go bring her back, Inuyasha!" Shippo yelled at him. "If you don't I'll have to hurt you!"
Inuyasha smiled slightly at the kisune's bravery. He didn't know how he was going to do it, but he was going to do what he could. This was going to be the biggest battle he had ever faced.
***
If anyone has any ideas of how INU should approach her, let me know, cause I'm stumped! That's why I'm posting in chapters instead of just doing a one-shot. HELP!
"Kikyo handed Naraku the Shikon Shards."
"Kikyo, Who died once."
"Kikyo, who was made again from clay."
"Kikyo, who hates me."
"Kikyo, who tried to kill Kagome."
"Where are you....."
