This is a short little Inuyasha/Kagome story.
Setting : Dark and depressing days of the Fuedal Ages
Main Character (s) : Inuyasha
Pairings : Inuyasha/Kagome
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha sat in the old hut that he and his friends stayed in when they had not been shard hunting. Even though the hunt had been over for nearly a month now, and they had parted ways, he remained in the village in the hut where they stayed. Where 'She' stayed.
There was no light-not even the moon or stars decided to show outside. Inside, there was only one lit candle, who's flame flickered amoung the breeze.
"Kagome....." he muttered as he stared into the heart of the flame. His eyes were swollen from so many tears, his face was flush. He finally allowed sleep to overtake him, hoping that he'd never wake up to such a horrid reality.
~~= Dream Sequence =~~~
Naraku laughed evilly as Inuyasha panted, tired from his vain attempts to slice Naraku in two. Naraku then sprayed some paralyzing poison into the air. It was so strong that it could paralyze demons and hanyous alike, not to mention, knock out humans completely.
Naraku smirked as he watched Inuyasha as the poison started to take effect on his body. "I have sought your suffering for over fifty years...." he began, "....now, I may have my wish!" with that, he grasped Kagome, who had been hovering above Inuyasha, trying to stay conscious with all her strength.
'Kagome!' his mind screamed as he attempted to move, but he could feel no part of his body.
Naraku laughed once again, and the dream quickly faded.
~~~= End Dream Sequence=~~~~
He woke up with a cold sweat dripping off of him.
"Darn it! Kagome, why!? Why did you have to die?" he shouted towards the heavens as tears once again swelled up on his face as he allowed them to fall. He fell to his kneed and clawed the floor out of fustration. "WHy?......Why?!"
Then, suddenly, a cool breeze blew into the hut. He had a weird feeling that he was no longer alone.
"Inuyasha.." he heard as he smelt Kaogme's scent.
"Ka....Kagome?"
"Inuyasha,...." came the soothing voice as it felt like a hand was laid upon his shoulder. He then looked up to see none other than Kagome, but was it an illusion?
"Inuyasha, please do not cry...." the figure looked sad as her eyes shined from the light of the flame.
By this time, the tears had turned into a flood. "Kagome!" he said as he reached to hug the figure, but his hand went through her.
"Please do not cry. i will 'always' be with you," she said.
"Nnani?"
"I'll always be with you, though I can no longer reside in the world of the living. I'll always reside in your heart." she said as she placed her translucent hand against his chest. It was almost as though he could feel warmth radiating from her.
"Kagome, onegai...don't go...."
"I'll always be with you... remember that." she said as her lips seemingly brushed his, and with that she was gone. Yet a faint whisper was left behind. "Remember me...."
