**~~To the ppl who are confused with my whole spoiler thing, not my fault!
Jus told you guys wut I heard from my frend...^^ But hope it's true. I'm
confused a bit myself now. -_-;; Who do you think InuYasha will chose? Oi,
where'd all my reviewers go? Did you guys all leave me? Whyyyyyyy. Lol,
j/ks, I know you guys are somewhere out there.... ^^ Well, sorry for
putting InuYasha in pain yet again. I know, I know, I hurt him and Kagome
too many times. But like I said before, can't help it ^^ Mwuahahahaha,
aren't I evil? I kept you guys on a cliff hanger. HEHE HAHA. Will Kagome
sleep through InuYasha's death? On with the story....~~**
============= Chapter Thirty-three =============
The sleep she had wanted before came to her now. Kagome closed her eyes as sleep fell over her.
The sun slowly started to disappear over the land, the orange light fading off the land as darkness started to consume the sky.
Naraku looked across at Kagome who was in a deep sleep,
"I hope she sleeps through his death" Naraku muttered as he turned and left. ~Time is almost out....~
**************************** InuYasha lay shivering in the red snow, blood dripping from his lips. Blood streaming down his face....his whole self was covered in blood. His frozen and bloody fingers covered over the soggy cherry blossom.
He stared at his hands that were covering the blossom, as his vision slowly started to go out of focus. The blossom was the closest he could get to Kagome....
~When I see cherry blossoms....they remind me of you.....Kagome~
He could taste the blood in his mouth. ~I've been lying like this for hours....~ InuYasha thought, ~it will soon be over....and I'll see you again~
InuYasha tried to picture Kagome in his mind, but all he could picture was the pale lifeless body of Kagome pierced to a tree.
***** Flashback *****
Daggers appeared in front of both Kagome and Kikyo, as it then shot towards them.
"Chose InuYasha.....if you can" Naraku said.
"Kagome!" InuYasha yelled as he ran for her, stumbling in the high snow.
"Inu.....Yasha" a weak voice called at him.
InuYasha turned his head and saw Kikyo weakly stretching out to him.
"Kikyo...." InuYasha muttered, stopping in his tracks to look at Kikyo.
She looked at him in a sad face, "I thought....you loved me"
"Kikyo......" InuYasha whispered, "I.....I'm sorry" he said hesitantly. Not knowing whether he should go and rescue Kikyo.....or Kagome.
Suddenly InuYasha heard a thud. InuYasha saw the snow in front of him slowly turning red. His heart froze, as he slowly turned around. Kagome hung on the tree with a daggers pierced into her heart, one in her stomach and another through her neck. Her face was pale and lifeless with blood dripping down her lips. The blood poured down from her wound as in soaked into the white snow.
***** End of Flashback *****
InuYasha tightly held the blossom, as a bitter hot tear dripped down his cheeks, burning his wounded cheeks.
~I'm sorry.....Kagome. For hesitating. Why did you.....have to die like this. I wish....it had been me instead of you who had died. Kagome.....please don't hate me......~
InuYasha choked, pain stabbing at his body. He looked down at the snow below his wound, only a pool of melted red snow could be seen. The blood stretching like a river in all directions.
He looked back at the blossom, he couldn't see it, he could only see blurry light.
The orange sun light that stretched across the land slowly began to disappear.
A strong gust of wind blew as the blossom blew out of InuYasha's grasp.
His eyes slowly closed as his breath began to shorten even more,
~Wait for me.......Kagome.....where we can......be together.......again~
****************************
Kagome was walking out in the snow when she saw the sun slowly disappearing. She looked around to see the cherry blossom tree InuYasha and her had been last time, the blossoms on it had turned all red. She noticed that as the sun began to disappear over the land, the cherry blossoms slowly started to disappear. The sun disappeared as the sky turned black. A wind blew as it all blew away, leaving the tree bare.
Kagome looked around in confusment, then she saw the snow below her slowly turning red. Kagome bent down and touched the snow, and looked back at her fingers. It was red.....soaked in blood.
Kagome gasped awake. She could feel cold sweat streaming down her face. She looked around, she hadn't been asleep for long. The sun was almost gone from sight. She sighed,
"All just a dream" Kagome muttered, ~but some how....something in me doesn't feel right.....something feels as if.....a part of me is disappearing~
Kagome slowly stood up and walked towards where the hut was located.
Kagome reached the hut and looked inside, it was cold and empty. Kagome walked inside and dropped her bag on the floor and sat down on the cold floor. She pulled her jacket closer to her, and shivered. She sat there, tapping her fingers on the floor.
"Where could they all be?" Kagome asked herself, ~I'm not leaving until I can get why InuYasha had so coldly pushed me down the well.....I will not torture myself by thinking and wondering up a reason all day~
Kagome got back up, tired of waiting and walked out of the hut. She could see the cherry blossoms from far away. The tree bare of its blossoms.
She walked slowly towards the tree, deep foot prints imprinting into the snow. She looked out across the land, only a slit of the sun was left, but it wasn't that dark, for the moon was glowing bright in the sky. As the white snow seemed to glow.
Kagome stumbled onto the snow, as it got into her shoes. Kagome took off her shoes as she shook it out in annoyance.
"Stupid snow" Kagome muttered, and just sat there, "and stupid....screwed up InuYasha" Kagome said bitterly. ~The snow....is as cold as my heart had felt when I saw InuYasha look at me like that.....as if he hated me~
A frozen tear ran down her cheeks, she felt her neck tightening from tears, her lungs hurting from breathing in the cold air. Kagome sighed as a puff of air formed.
Kagome stood up and continued her journey to the cherry blossom tree, ~At least......I'll remember the InuYasha I used to know there~
She could still remember the warmth of his hands when he had held hers. The warmth of his lips when he had kissed her.........And the coldness of his eyes when he has looked at her.
Kagome reached the tree, but saw something red shining from the moonlight on the tree. She walked over, to take a closer look. Blood.
"Huh?" Kagome looked down at the snow under her foot to see blood soaked into the pure white snow. She slowly followed the trail of blood, that was clear in the bright white snow. Her heart beated fast......Her eyes ended up, far away on a body that lay lifelessly in the snow.....that could not really be called snow, for it was not white. The whole area around the body was surrounded in bright red blood. The body lay there, with snow piled on top of it. The body would have disappeared into the snow if another hour had passed by. It still snowed heavily.
She saw a necklace glimmering in the moonlight.....
"That necklace......" Kagome muttered, "InuYasha had......one just like that"
At that very moment, her heart cried out in horror. She knew who that was, she knew.......that it was InuYasha.
The slit of sun sunk below the land, disappearing from the surface of the land. ~The sun.......my dream.......~
Kagome shot towards InuYasha, stumbling over the high snow His body fading away under the snow. She kept on running, and stumbled hard onto the red snow as the cold snow went down her jacket. Tears rushed down her face as she ran towards him. The snow fell so heavily that almost nothing was seeable. Only the bright red blood.
Kagome fell to the ground near InuYasha, she slowly flipped his body around, she was scared of what she would find. The snow fell off him. Kagome stared down at the icy cold body, covered in blood. Her eyes slowly looked down at his stomach to see the blood shining in the moonlight, something had gone through his stomach. His face was also covered in blood. Kagome held InuYasha tightly in her arms,
"InuYasha!" Kagome cried as hot tears rushed down her cheeks, dripping down onto InuYasha's frozen body.
"He's........dead.........."
~I feel......warmth. That scent........so familiar. It can't be her.....she's dead. I saw her die right before me........but.....I smell it~
Kagome felt something shifting. She looked down to see InuYasha looking weakly up at her......
InuYasha's heart started to beat. ~You're.........alive. You didn't leave me~
He looked up at the blurry vision of Kagome, all he could see was her light.
Kagome looked down at him in wonder, he was looking at her unfocusedly. He warmly smiled.
"InuYasha, what happened?" Kagome choked out, tears streaming down her face, as she held his cold body as if there was no tomorrow......and she was afraid that there would be no tomorrow. Kagome gently helped him sit, as InuYasha grimaced from the pain.
Kagome warmly smiled, "you're alive, I thought you weren't"
"Just leave me here" he muttered.
"Wha- what?! I can't do that! You'll die here!" Kagome cried.
"You...won't be able to bring me back.......you'll freeze to death....trying"
"No, no, no! I'm not leaving you here, you baka! I'll die trying!" Kagome cried.
"All.......i wanted was to see you smile.......before I...."
"Don't say it! You won't die!" Kagome cried.
"Please...be.....happy"
"InuYasha! I'm serious! If you die, then I'll die here right next to you! I'm serious!" Kagome cried at him.
InuYasha's heart froze, "no"
InuYasha forcedly came to his knees with all the remaining strength left in him. Kagome helped him stand.
He leaned on her heavily as he unsteadily walked in the snow, leaving a trail of blood behind him. Kagome glanced up at his face to see a weak smile, other than the look of pain. She was confused.
~I'm so glad Kagome......that you didn't die.......~ InuYasha thought, ~ I got what I wished for....to see you smile one last time~
Kagome could feel her heart throbbing in sorrow, "if you die" Kagome whispered icily, "I wont forgive you.....you wanted me to be happy, but I wont. I'll die if you die"
InuYasha frowned, ~then it means.......that I must live......~
InuYasha gave a slight cry of pain as he collapsed to the ground. His wound was killing him. Kagome looked around desperately, not knowing how to help. She looked down at InuYasha who was shivering. She quickly took off her jacket and wrapped it around him.
InuYasha curled up as he started to cough out blood.....
"DON'T DIE ON ME! REMEMBER OUR PROMISE! THAT I WOULDN'T LET GO OF YOU, AND YOU WOULDN'T LET GO OF ME!!!" Kagome cried, "you're asking me to.....let go of you. You're asking me to...let you die alone here. If that's what you want me to do, than I might as well not let you die alone here!"
InuYasha pulled Kagome down onto him and held her tightly in his arms,
"I don't want to let go of you, I don't want you to let go of me......but what choice do you have" he whispered in pain.
"If you care for me that much as to die with me.....the don't. Let me at least die....knowing that you'd be living and happy.......I don't want ot die.......not anymore.......but what choice do I have......you won't be able to bring me back....to the hut.......by yourself. Sorry...Kagome"
