Sweet Hallucinations

Chapter #3: KAGOME?!

By: Priestess Sakura

"K-kagome?" Inuyasha asked taking a shaky step forward. "Kagome...is it really you?" Inuyasha couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Of course silly!" Kagome said still giggling. She had the most happiest expression and voice ever.

"How? You died!" Inuyasha was so happy that Kagome was back that he hadn't noticed that it was getting dark.

Kagome hopped down from the tree and stood in front of him. They both stared into each others eyes as if they were talking through them.

"Kagome." Inuyasha said softly before pulling Kagome into a firm yet gentle and warm embrace. Kagome responded to the gentle embrace. They stayed like that for what seemed to them like an eternity but were only a couple of seconds.

They parted but only a little enough for Inuyasha to brush his lips against hers. He then ran his tongue against her lips asking for entrance. She parted her lips giving him permission to enter. She parted her lips and his tongue entered. He explored her mouth like there was no tomorrow. After a couple of seconds of exploring and tongue fighting, they ended the kiss. He then embraced Kagome and she leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Inuyasha, I have to go now." Kagome said quite sadly yet sternly.

"But why!?" Inuyasha asked sadly embracing her even tighter than before.

Kagome suddenly began to glow that beautiful gold from before. Then Kagome disappeared leaving Inuyasha all alone under the stars.

"Kagome wait!" Inuyasha called out but then noticed she was already gone.

'Was it a vision? A hallucination? No! It couldn't be. She felt so real. I could feel her body heat. And I can still taste her in my mouth. She's alive; She has to be alive! But how?' Inuyasha pondered while he walking to the Goshiboku Tree and placing the flowers neatly down. "Kagome...if your dead then....I'm sorry...for not being able to have saved you...." Inuyasha then turned around and slowly started to walk beck to the village.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What's taking Inuyasha so long?" asked a curious Shippo.

"I don't know maybe he's too ashamed to show up after all." Miroku stated casually.

"He's got nothing to be ashamed of. It was just a matter of choosing me or her and he chose me." Kikyou began to defend Inuyasha.

"You say that Kikyou because to you Kagome's life is worth nothing!" Sango said furiously.

"Why don't you all just stop fighting." Inuyasha said as he walked into the hut.

As soon as Sango, Miroku, and Shippo saw Inuyasha they stood up and left the hut without saying a word to him. They didn't know what to say to him. They were so mad and disappointed with dim that they couldn't say anything.

"Hey! What's wrong with you guys!?" Inuyasha said as they went right past him and shoved aside.

"Inuyasha, Sango and Miroku lost a sister. Shippo lost a second mother.
What do ye expect from them?" Kaede said as she finished making a medicine for a sick girl in the village. She put the medicine in a bowl and stood up. "I'll be right back, while I'm out ye two have a lot to talk about." With that, she exited the hut and left her revived sister behind to talk to her husband.

"The villagers said they should finish the hut by tomorrow morning." Kikyou stated. She knew he had seen a vision of kagome. She had gone out to look for Inuyasha because it was getting late.

*Flashback*

Kikyou walked through the forest in search of Inuyasha when she suddenly spotted him in front of the Goshinboku tree. Inuyasha was talking to himself. Well that's what Kikyou thought before she realized that he wasn't talking to himself but to someone she couldn't see. She tried as hard as she could to listen to what he was saying, and then it hit her, he was talking to Kagome.

*End of Flashback*

"So we'll be moving tomorrow huh?" Inuyasha just couldn't stop thinking about Kagome. He couldn't even look Kikyou in the eye.

"We should get to sleep now." Kikyou said as she got dressed. He went over to the bed that him and Kikyou were supposed to sleep in. He took off all of his above cloths and then laid down on the futon. Kikyou was just wearing a hakama, when she laid down next to Inuyasha. As soon as she laid down Inuyasha put his arm around Kikyou's waist and pulled her closer to him. Kikyou was shocked by his action. She then realized that he was doing all this thinking of Kagome. 'I'll have to live with it, he will never forget her. I know he does not love me anymore, but at least he won't avoid me. I know that he will only touch me thinking of her...Kagome, the cause of all my problems.' She closed her and fell asleep.

Inuyasha was already asleep. He imagined that he was actually embracing Kagome instead of Kikyou. He dreamed of all the good things they went through. Then suddenly all the bad things they went through popped up. The last of the images he saw before waking up was seeing when Kagome died. He felt a strange pain in his heart as if it wouldn't ever go away. He looked at Kikyou and couldn't help but feel sorry for her. He then looked at the other side and saw an unexpected guest. Kaede was sleeping at a far dark corner of the hut, but that wasn't what surprised him. Kagome was kneeling about a foot and a half away from him. She was glowing gold again; she was wearing a beautiful golden, short silky dress. Her dress went to about not even to half of her thigh and just the sight of her made Inuyasha a bit dizzy.

"K-K-Kagome?" Inuyasha sputtered out.

She giggled, and then disappeared. Inuyasha felt a pressure of something ever so soft on his lips. He knew that it was Kagome. 'Goodnight Kagome.' With that, Inuyasha laid back down and fell asleep dreaming of only the happy times he shared with Kagome.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Miroku, this is our first night sleeping without Kagome. Remember when she would tell us about those crazy things about her time?" Sango said with a sigh.

"Yeah I remember. I also remember her and Inuyasha always fighting because she needed to go back to her own time.""

Shippo was already asleep. Only Sango and Miroku were awake that night. They knew that they would never see Kagome again. There was no possibility for them to ever see Kagome again. It was the same possibility of them never speaking to Inuyasha again. They didn't even want an explanation from him because they saw it all. Alls they wanted was to forget about Inuyasha and get on with their life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Next Morning)

Inuyasha woke up before everyone else. 'I better go fetch some food for breakfast 'cause from now on theirs gonna be no more Ramen.' He quitly got dressed and went out into the forest. He went deep enough that no one would hear him but near enough that he could hear if anything were to happen back in the village. "Now the only thing I need to do is find something to bring back for breakfast." Inuyasha spotted a good-sized rabbit near a bush and started to chase after it. Suddenly the rabbit turned into Kagome. "Kagome?!" Kagome started giggling again as if this were just a game. "Kagome! Wait!" Inuyasha finally got a hold of Kagome's arm. He spun her around and pulled her into a warm embrace.

Inuyasha started to feel something too warm in his arms. He looked at Kagome, who was glowing gold. Inuyasha then noticed it was all a vision when a second ago he was holding Kagome and now he was holding the good-sized rabbit from before. Inuyasha turned around to go back to the village when he suddenly heard some giggling from behind. He turned around to find Kagome sitting on a broken branch. "Kagome? Is it really you?" Inuyasha asked wanting to know if it was just another hallucination.

"Of course silly! Who else could it be?" Kagome said still giggling.

"Why did you disappear?" Inuyasha was still holding the rabbit.

"Because it's not as fun when you catch me." Kagome said standing up. She was wearing the same outfit from the night before. She turned around and started to run. Inuyasha let go of the rabbit and started to run after Kagome. He, too, was beginning to like this little game of hers. "I'm right behind you!" Inuyasha yelled out. He was now laughing with her.

"Well then I better run faster!" Kagome started to speed up but so did Inuyasha. Kagome ran into a clearing and Inuyasha got a hold of Kagome's arm again. He spun her around but then he tripped and they both unexpectedly fell to the ground.

Inuyasha fell on top of Kagome and both of them were panting. They each starred into each other's eyes and then Inuyasha kissed Kagome with passion. After half a second Kagome was kissing him back with the same love and passion he was expressing through the kiss.
