Disclamier- *sighs* I do not own Inuyasha

Chapter 5

*~Flashback~*

Sad golden eyes gazed into her, begging her to understand, and she did, only to well. She would do anything to make him happy. Even if it destroyed her.

Someone once said, If you love something, set it free, if it returns its yours, if it doesn't it never was'. It was hard to describe the ripping, tearing feeling that was coursing through her being.

Someone also said, It's better to have loved and lost, then to have never loved at all.'

Kagome wasn't sure if she agreed with them. Sure people could say that if they never knew real love...love that made you feel so complete when you were with your other that without them...you'd crumble and die.

Emotion twisted in her gut. Her whole body felt warm as she watched the scene before her. Anything for him. Who was she to stand in his way?

He walked backwards towards Kikyo, watching her with a detached intensity. She wished he would yell how she was stupid, how he hated her. She could hate him then. Instead he looked at her, his eyes shining with the love that almost was.

Her throat constricted.

Kikyo looked at her, eyes hard, as if say I won.'

Kikyo, everything she was, Kagome was now. Maybe that was why she couldn't hate, emotions that resided within Kikyo now.

I wasn't fair! This was suppose to be a fariy tale...her fair tale. The Princess always got her Prince. Maybe she wasn't the Princess. Just the evil queen standing in the way of true love.

She wouldn't do that to him, even if it ment laying down her life. Any body, being they of a divine power, or just an average person, could feel the saddness pooling around this girl having been through so much.

Even the Gods themselves asked Fate why such a pure soul deserved this agony, Fate replied with a smile.

A wind blew through the clearing, twirling her hair in its caress. Trying to comfort the shining one.

He was beside Kikyo now, still gazing at her with the golden orbs she loved so much. Kagome wanted to memeroize everything about this night. The temperature, the sounds, the feelings coursing through her.

She wighed she could be selfish, just this once. Wanting to beg him to stay. She knew he would, if she just asked...but he would always regret it. She didn't want her feelings to influence his in anyway. It was his choice...and it killed her.

Kikyo, the once pure miko. Consumed with hate and envy. The moment she had let the arrow fly, all intent focusing on hate...trying to kill Inuyasha, she forfited all rights to her soul.

She hadn't cried yet. She knew her tears would make him feel guilty. She wanted him to be free from guilt, his soul light when he left her.

Her brave Inuyasha. She couldn't even be angry with him...just an ever growing love. She knew she would never be the same after this, her love for him was to great.

The ground was opening up, begining to swallow the past lovers. They were sinking imposibly slow, but to Kagome, it was much to fast. She had to touch him...one last time.

She took and unsteady step forward, then another. She relished in the feel of the grass below her feet. The sound of the birds in the trees, hum of the air. The feel of the moon.

When she got to them, they were up to their shin's in soil. She dropped to he knees and reached out to him. He wrapped her up in his strong arms and pulled her tightly to his chest.

She closed her eyes counting his heartbeats, wanting hers to match. She still hadn't cried, but her tears were burning her eyelids. How could tears burn?

He tilted her face up to his, his eyes swimming with unshed tears, eyes that mirrored her own. He brought his lips to hers in a desperate plea. How could his lips be this soft? They melded together. Souls gentlely touching.

He ran his tongue across her bottem lip, begging for enterence. She complied. There tongues touched, then fought in a battle of passion. She knotted her fingers in his hair. Nither wanting this to end.

His face was now directly below hers. They broke contact, coming up for pants of air. A string of saliva connecting them. They gazed at each other, her face crumpled in love and misery. She tried to smile. Make him happy.

He whispered the words she once thought would make her the happiest girl in the world. But now ripped her beating heart out of her chest.

I love you.

They found her that moring, digging a rather large hole. They had to bandage her brutily maimed hands.
