Chapter #1 : The sadness, the hurt, the wish
*********
The shikkon Jewel is completed and Kagome has made the wish. The wish was this, "That everyone she knew and loved, would become happy and at peace." And that's just what happened. Shippou's mother and father came back to life, Sango and Miroku got engaged, and Inuyasha went with his true love, Kikyou, to heaven instead of hell. Although it seems as if everyone was happy, one was not. Kagome rejoiced for her friends' happiness, but she was hurting inside.
She loved Inuyasha deeply, and was hoping that he would stay with her on earth. She thought that by making her wish that he would come to be with her. She watched bitterly that day when Kikyou came back. Kikyou said that she forgave Inuyasha and that he could come with her to heaven with her. Inuyasha looked so happy despite his stubbornness. All this time he must have been longing to be with her, Kagome must have been only a small comfort until the day he would be able to be with Kikyou for forever. Inuyasha said his silent good bye as he stepped up to Kikyou that day. Kagome only watched on and waved in bewilderness.
Not only was she simply loosing Inuyasha, she would somewhat loose Shippou. Shippou was like her adopter son, and now that he had his birth parents, what need was there for her? They would probably move off to some distant land, and Kagome would hardly see him anymore. Although they did express their gratitude towards her, and told her that she was in some part, a part of their family. They even offered for her to go with them. She simply couldn't though, even though the well was destroyed by Naraku's final attack. She had to resolve her feelings, decide what to do with her life, and what most importantly decide where she would belong.
Miroku and Sango where to be married. Kagome knew that she was welcome in their lives, because she was their best friend. She didn't want to intrude though, For they were to start their lives over, from the start. Miroku's hole in his hand had disappeared the day Naraku was killed, and Sango was ready to start a family. What place in the world was there for her? That's exactly what Kagome's thinking as she sits by a tree, in Inuyasha's old forest.
**Kagome's POV**
'Why didn't the wish come true for me? Was I meant to be broken hearted? Am I meant to never be loved? Why? Why did you have to leave Inuyasha?!"
I silently mourned into my knees as I remembered all the times I had shared with Inuyasha and my friends.
I mourned for my life...
My dreams...
My soul...
I didn't know what would become of me. Would I rot away in unhappiness? It seemed like decades had passed as I just sat huddled by that tree. I sniffled back my tears as I raised my head from beneath my arms. I looked upon the lake, listening to all the sounds of the forest. I heard everything, the birds chirping for happiness, the bugs playing on the lake, the rustling of the leaves, even the wind as it blew my hair. I looked at my tear stained hands.
'I once held his hand with these, I once fought beside him, holding my arrow and bow with these, I once hugged him, kissed him and even stole a touch of his face's cheek with these.'
I couldn't help but cry even harder as I thought of him.
'I have no where to go from here...'
I stood up from my spot, and walked slowly towards the lake. I stood there, my hand clutching my heart, thinking of what to do. That's when I heard a sound of the leaves rustling suddenly...Just like what would happen when Inuyasha was near by. But it can't be...he's gone.
There was a swift -swish- in the air, so I turned around...I gasped at who stood before me,
"Sesshomaru"
