The Curse of a Half-Demon
-Chapter 31-
There's No Such Thing As a Last Kiss
Hello to all my fans! This is the last chapter for The Curse of a Half- Demon. Remember there is going to be Part2 of this story! "Getting The Curse Once Again!" I have no idea when I'm going to publish the first chapter of it but keep searching for it just in case I publish it either this week or next week! So I hope you enjoy the last chapter!
"Sango....what time is it?" Asked Inuyasha. He was on his back, the bleeding has stopped on his chest over his heart but it wasn't pretty. Sango was afraid to look at the big and horrifying wound Inuyasha has put onto himself. He had a little trouble breathing, it wasn't his fault....well, actually it is but it's also part of the curse too.
"About 20 minutes until the sun comes up..." said Sango sadly. Shippo was on Inuyasha's belly trying to look at Inuyasha's face but didn't dare to move because of his wound.
"Miroku....when is Kagome going to wake up?"
"I don't know....but I hope any minute now!" Said Miroku. Miroku was sitting next to Kagome who was laying on the ground a few feet from Inuyasha. Miroku had his legs crossed and his arms crossed looking down at Kagome's face waiting for her to open her eyes. He was getting worried each and every minute as it passes by. He was afraid Kagome wouldn't wake up and see Inuyasha before he dies or that she wouldn't say those 3 simple words.
Sango was getting scared to see Kagome all alone with no one to love or laugh with or better yet...fight with. They were all afraid....they didn't know what to do once Inuyasha has died.
Probably another one of those dreams that meant something of what's going to happen in the near future. It was another dream of Inuyasha dying...but this time...they were in a beautiful flower feild that you probably can't imagine. Inuyasha's back was turned to Kagome and he was afraid to see her face because he told her he is dying and will be leaving in a few minutes.
Kagome wanted to give him a great big hug but every time she took a step to him, he would take a step away from her. Finally, he turned around to face Kagome....but to her, it looked like Inuyasha wanted to cry. But couldn't because he's not that kind of guy to let out a bunch of tears. Since when there was a law for tough guys not to cry in front of the woman of their dreams?
"Inuyasha...? If you don't want to give me a hug then give me a last kiss...I know this one would be cherished enough for me to remember for the rest of my life-" Inuyasha cut her off by putting his hand over her mouth to keep her mouth shut so he can speak.
"Kagome...." He sighed before he continued on. "No matter if you're dead or alive....there is no such thing as a last kiss. Unless if it's the person who is dying or breaking up with you..." Kagome put her hand on his hand and removed it from her mouth.
"Can I at least have my last kiss with you then?"
Inuyasha didn't answer. He was hesitating to answer. Even if he did wanted to answer he won't know what to say to her. It could either pain her heart or give her happiness. He put his hand to her cheek look her closely in the eyes. He put his forehead on her's so their nose can touch. Kagome wanted to cry in front of him but she didn't want to show that much pain to him.
"Kagome....at this rate....I don't know if I should give you a last kiss to you. But I think I should give you something else..."
"No! You don't understand! I-" Before she could say anything else, he grabbed her arm and wrapped his arms around her. Resting his cheek on her head using both of his hands to rub her back. Kagome wasn't doing anything except resting her cheek on his chest, still trying to get over the shock of what Inuyasha did. She was about to tell him she loves him....how much she wanted to be with him. She wrapped her arms around his waist and felt his warm body more then ever.
"Sorry....Kagome....but before I leave.....I want to tell you that I love you...from the bottom of my heart....good luck without me around anymore."
Kagome felt his body disappearing from her arms. The warmth she was feeling was disappearing from her slowly. When she looked up at Inuyasha's face, she saw the sadness in his golden eyes. Then along with his body, his face disappeared too....and she fell forward to land on the follows on her stomach. She went to her side and cried to herself...he disappeared without letting him know she loves him so much!
"How long..." Inuyasha was getting weaker, he couldn't even finish the question he was going to ask. But Sango knew what he was asking.
"10 more minutes until you-know-what!" Said Sango.
"Do you really have to go, Inuyasha? You're going to break Kagome's heart into little pieces!" Said Shippo.
"Shut-"
"Up? I figure you were going to say that since it's like your favorite word!!"
"Hey! Can't you tell I'm dying in a couple of-"
"...minutes! I know! I'm just saying!"
Kirara was sitting next to Inuyasha's head. "Meow!" Cried Kirara.
Inuyasha turned his head to face Kirara and smiled. He pat her head. "Yeah...I'll miss you too when I die.." said Inuyasha.
"Who said you're going to die!? You still have a lot of things to do. Like say that you love Kagome. And you can't leave without you telling her that!" Said Sango.
"But-"
"Hey! You're dying in a few minutes! You're too weak that you can't finish a sentence!!"
"HEY!!"
"Sango...maybe you need to calm down. Let Inuyasha say something!" Said Shippo.
"Fine!"
"You were saying?"
"I'll tell her I love her...if she wakes up. Otherwise, she won't know how I truely feel....and-"
"Don't worry Inuyasha!!" Shouted Miroku. "I'll slap her face to death until she wakes up!!"
"You better not-"
"Don't worry! I won't do it that hard!! It's just a slight slap! But if she doesn't wake up in the next 5 min. I'll give her a big slap!!"
"....go ahead...."
Miroku started to get his hands ready for a little slapping. That gave Sango and Shippo a scarey look right there. What was Inuyasha thinking!?
Kagome walked silently in the flower field, her hands clenched to her chest, crying to herself. She just lost the man she loved...for good. She should've told him how she felt when she first knew she was in love with him. It was only a waste of time, all she wanted to do is tell him she loves him before he dies or even if she dies.
"You stupid...jerk!" Angered Kagome. "You could've at least given me the chance to say goodbye or something like that!"
So angry....yet so sad. All she ever wished for is to be with him for the rest of her life. Why did it have to be this way? Why now? Why not after they get married or when they have children? Why not after her death? Or something like that...but why now? Full of questions she decided not to answer those stupid questions in her head.
"Hm? What's that I feel...on my hip?" Asked Kagome. She looked at the spots where her hip is and nothing was touching it. Then she realized that this was only a dream...plus...she felt something slapping her cheeks. She would be thinking it's Inuyasha but why would he be touching her hip? So she suspects....
"AH!! Stop that Miroku!!" Kagome slapped Miroku hard and took a few steps away from him. Miroku put his hands up to tell her he surrenders to her. "Never DO THAT AGAIN!!!"
"I understand! But I think you should go see Inuyasha..." said Miroku.
"Where is he?" She calmed down fast!
"A few feet behind you!" He pointed to him which is behind her. Kagome turned around and saw Inuyasha on the ground, with Sango sitting next to him and Shippo sitting on his stomach. Kirara was on Sango's shoulder.
Kagome panicked and ran to them to see what happened to Inuyasha. She was shocked when she got closer to him, like a few steps closer. She saw a big and deep wound over his heart, the sight of it scared her but she didn't care about that. All she cared about was Inuyasha. She kneeled down to look at him closer. She put her hand on the back of Inuyasha's head and to lift him up a little bit, she put her hand on his arm so she won't touch the deep wound.
Sango and Shippo stepped away and stood by Miroku who was standing near by. Miroku whispered to Sango to ask how long until the sun comes up. She says about 5 min...that's not good! We can't let our Inuyasha die! ( Heh- heh!)
Inuyasha put his hand on her face and smiled...knowing that he sees the light coming out...the sun will be coming VERY soon.
"What happened!?" Asked Kagome. "Let's hurry on home! We can treat the wound!"
"I'm afraid it's a little too late, Kagome..." said Inuyasha.
"Huh...?"
"Before the sun comes up...I need to tell you something..." said Inuyasha.
"What do you mean? What happens when the sun comes up?" Questioned Kagome.
"When the sun rises...I'll die..."
"What? Why?" Kagome was starting to have tears coming to her eyes. Too much pain...
Inuyasha sighed and put his hand down for it to rest on his stomach. "Remember about 2 months ago...that I was going to tell you....why I was here?"
"Yeah...." she answered slowly.
"Here's the reason....I was cursed...by Naraku."
"That's why you wanted to kill Naraku so much..."
"At my old home, there was this lake...near it..." He needed to tell her without hesitating. "I thought it would give me eternal life...but when I took a sip out of that lake, I was wrong. It shorten my life span. Naraku then came and told me he cursed that lake. He told me if anyone drinks from that lake, they become cursed and only have 2 months to live...and that 2 months is almost up....it'll end once the sun rises."
"There's no...way to break the curse?"
"No way....at all!"
Sango, Shippo and Miroku were shocked. Miroku used his index finger to tap Sango's shoulder to get her attention. Shippo just watched them talking while he just stands there knowing nothing of what they're talking about.
"(He's not telling her the whole truth!)" Complained Sango.
"(I know. But there's not much time. He only has 3 and a half minutes left!)" Said Miroku. They got their attention back to Inuyasha and Kagome.
"I'm sorry Kagome...but I have to go. I thought beating Naraku will end the curse but I was wrong....I'm near death..."
Kagome put her hand on his chest, avoiding the wound over his heart and clenched her hand so she can make a tight grip. Now Kagome was actually crying...and the tears rolled down her cheeks and dropped to Inuyasha's wound. He flinched a couple of times but he got use to the pain.
"I also thought the Shikon no Tama will help keep me alive more longer....but that only awaken my demon power...which helped me control myself but it didn't work either."
"No....please....no! Why now!? [This is almost like my dream...but instead he can't hug me or anything like that!] I don't want you to leave me! Not now, not ever!!"
"But before I go...can I have one last kiss from you....?"
"There's no such thing as a last kiss! There never was! Love comes and goes and each love you receive you kiss them! You're the one who taught me that!!"
"How-? Never mind...I think I know how you know...."
"Why you didn't tell me before?"
"Miroku...how long until-"
"About 2 min." Said Miroku. He was losing hope, but he wouldn't give up just because there was so little time left. He wanted to yell out to Kagome to tell him how she feels about him.
"Kagome....I know time is running out and-"
"The others knew? They knew and I didn't? Did my family knew? Was I the only one who didn't know about all of this?"
"One minute left....Inuyasha...." said Miroku. Now he was going to lose hope.
Inuyasha's body was starting to disappear in front of her eyes....just like her dream. But she can still hold on to his kimono, she cried even more and harder and couldn't speak...but time was running out for him as when she saw the light of the sun trying to creep out so the life can end for Inuyasha.
"I love you....Kagome Higurashi....That's what I wanted to tell you before I die..." said Inuyasha.
"YOU CAN'T DIE!!"
"I'll rest my eyes while my body slowly disappears in front of all of you...."
Kagome forced her head on Inuyasha's chest, not caring that even though some of her hair landed on to his open wound. Feeling the little remaining warmth from his body....crying while the warmth and him disappears slowly from her.
"(30 seconds left....)" Miroku whispered to himself, but it was strong enough for Sango and Shippo to hear. And they started to cry as Kagome loses her love in front of her eyes.
"YOU CAN'T DIE YET!!! THERE IS SOME THINGS I STILL WANT TO TELL YOU AND TO DO WITH YOU!! I WANT TO MARRY YOU, I WANT TO HAVE KIDS WITH YOU, TO START A FAMILY SO WE CAN ALL BE HAPPY!! WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS....." Kagome used all her might to yell out.... "I LOVE YOU INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She shed her tears a lot when she FINALLY said those 3 words.... She finally told him the words he needed. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo were shocked and a little happy and were waiting for Inuyasha's remains to come back.
Inuyasha opened his eyes and saw the sun coming up. He was happy when Kagome said those words, not just because he wants to break the curse, because he loves her dearly.
Suddenly, his body turned yellow and he started to float to his feet. Kagome got off of his chest and saw him floating a few feet above the ground. Kagome knew the sun is doing this, giving him the new life, it was like the sun decides if he dies or not. Then, something shiny appeared around Inuyasha's body....sparkles of life? They didn't know, so they waited for it to be done.
Kagome thought this was it...he was going to die. ( She still doesn't know that her love to Inuyasha broke the curse!) Then a light ball appeared in front of Inuyasha and it slowly floated to the deep wound and went inside to his heart. The wound was healed....but now what?
The others took the next action by surprise. The sparkles just made a flash around him and just went inside his body, the arms, the legs, his head....etc. And that made his whole body gave out a burst of light and that blinded the others for a second.
After their sight was back, they saw Inuyasha on the ground laying on his back with his eyes closed. Was he alive.....or dead? They weren't sure. Kagome went over to his side and lift up his head....she cried even more....he was dead! "Why!?" She screamed. She put his head on her chest and squeezed it and closed her eyes real tight and let her tears of pain roll down to his hair. "Why did you have to leave me!!?" Kagome cried like she never cried before....crying like a little kid when they knew someone died.
Miroku and the others lost hope. It was the end of Inuyasha's life for good....and there's no way to bring him back. Not even the Shikon no Tama can help to bring him back to life...but maybe Sesshomaru can help. But then again, Sesshomaru usually finds them and he won't be coming back anymore because Inuyasha is dead! But after a few minutes, they saw something move...
Inuyasha's hand.....
They heard some kind of mumbling...from Inuyasha or Kagome? They tried to be very quite and listen again but it was hard because of Kagome sobbing.
"You're squeezing to hard...."
Kagome stopped sobbing....well almost stopped but it has calmed down. She let loose of her arms and let her hands hold his face to see his eyes...
He's alive!
Kagome was so happy....happier then ever! She thought she lost her love....again. ( The reason because of the second time...is because of the dream she had.) Kagome gave him a big hug....squeezing his head againn really tight, so Inuyasha can't breathe.
"What happened? I thought you died!!" Cried Kagome with tears of joy.
"Kagome....if you let Inuyasha go...he might explain," said Miroku.
Kagome did and wanted Inuyasha to sit up. Kagome saw those golden eyes and was really happy....over joyed I would say. Kagome tried to calm down and wanted to ask him the question.
"I thought you died....but how?"
"I didn't tell you the whole truth about the curse, Kagome," said Inuyasha. "There was a way for me to break the curse...actually its more like someone has to break it for me. The way was: For someone to say 'I love you' from the heart will break the curse...."
Inuyasha stood up to look at the sun and back at Kagome. He held out his hand so he can help her up. She took it, and Inuyasha pulled her up to stand up. Miroku, Sango and Shippo were very happy, they just saw Inuyasha and Kagome staring at each other happily. Then they looked at each other and laughed....but!
"OSUWARI!!!" Screamed Kagome. They looked at each other and heard the loud bang in the ground. They looked at Kagome and Inuyasha....Inuyasha's head was in the ground. "OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!"
That made a few cracks in the ground!
Inuyasha forced himself to stand up and looked at Kagome angrily. "What the heck was that for!?" Asked Inuyasha.
"For not telling me about the curse sooner!!" Answered Kagome.
"There was no reason for you to know!!"
"Yes there was, stupid!!"
"Well, look on the bright side!! I'm still alive right?"
"You may be alive but you woke up from the dead with your HEAD in the ground!!"
"That's because you said that 's' word!!"
"Do you want me to say it again!!"
"No I don't!! You can at least be happy that I'm alive!!"
"I can't believe they're fighting after Inuyasha almost died..." said Shippo.
"Yup! It's embarrassing!" Said Miroku.
"Let's go before they explode!" Said Sango. "Come on Kirara!"
Kirara jumped on Sango's shoulder and they all left Kagome and Inuyasha. They were still arguing about not-telling-Kagome-about-the-curse thing!
"Why you didn't tell me before?" Asked Kagome.
"Because if I told you, you would just say those words right from the beginning and it wouldn't count!!" Answered Inuyasha.
"Maybe you were better off dead!"
"If I was you would be miserable and say that you wish I was here because you LOVE ME SO MUCH!!"
"I may love you but what about you!? If you loved me you would've told me THE WHOLE TRUTH!!"
They were getting tired of arguing, their throats was soar. They were huffing and puffing and couldn't take it anymore. That's when they realized they were all alone. They looked around to double check....they knew Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kirara....has left them both! To embarrass themselves in front of each other!
"HEY!!! GUYS!!! WAIT FOR US!!!!!" Shouted Kagome and Inuyasha. They started to run down the mountain together, not realizing that they were holding hands while they ran down the mountain.

There's No Such Thing As a Last Kiss
Hello to all my fans! This is the last chapter for The Curse of a Half- Demon. Remember there is going to be Part2 of this story! "Getting The Curse Once Again!" I have no idea when I'm going to publish the first chapter of it but keep searching for it just in case I publish it either this week or next week! So I hope you enjoy the last chapter!
"Sango....what time is it?" Asked Inuyasha. He was on his back, the bleeding has stopped on his chest over his heart but it wasn't pretty. Sango was afraid to look at the big and horrifying wound Inuyasha has put onto himself. He had a little trouble breathing, it wasn't his fault....well, actually it is but it's also part of the curse too.
"About 20 minutes until the sun comes up..." said Sango sadly. Shippo was on Inuyasha's belly trying to look at Inuyasha's face but didn't dare to move because of his wound.
"Miroku....when is Kagome going to wake up?"
"I don't know....but I hope any minute now!" Said Miroku. Miroku was sitting next to Kagome who was laying on the ground a few feet from Inuyasha. Miroku had his legs crossed and his arms crossed looking down at Kagome's face waiting for her to open her eyes. He was getting worried each and every minute as it passes by. He was afraid Kagome wouldn't wake up and see Inuyasha before he dies or that she wouldn't say those 3 simple words.
Sango was getting scared to see Kagome all alone with no one to love or laugh with or better yet...fight with. They were all afraid....they didn't know what to do once Inuyasha has died.
Probably another one of those dreams that meant something of what's going to happen in the near future. It was another dream of Inuyasha dying...but this time...they were in a beautiful flower feild that you probably can't imagine. Inuyasha's back was turned to Kagome and he was afraid to see her face because he told her he is dying and will be leaving in a few minutes.
Kagome wanted to give him a great big hug but every time she took a step to him, he would take a step away from her. Finally, he turned around to face Kagome....but to her, it looked like Inuyasha wanted to cry. But couldn't because he's not that kind of guy to let out a bunch of tears. Since when there was a law for tough guys not to cry in front of the woman of their dreams?
"Inuyasha...? If you don't want to give me a hug then give me a last kiss...I know this one would be cherished enough for me to remember for the rest of my life-" Inuyasha cut her off by putting his hand over her mouth to keep her mouth shut so he can speak.
"Kagome...." He sighed before he continued on. "No matter if you're dead or alive....there is no such thing as a last kiss. Unless if it's the person who is dying or breaking up with you..." Kagome put her hand on his hand and removed it from her mouth.
"Can I at least have my last kiss with you then?"
Inuyasha didn't answer. He was hesitating to answer. Even if he did wanted to answer he won't know what to say to her. It could either pain her heart or give her happiness. He put his hand to her cheek look her closely in the eyes. He put his forehead on her's so their nose can touch. Kagome wanted to cry in front of him but she didn't want to show that much pain to him.
"Kagome....at this rate....I don't know if I should give you a last kiss to you. But I think I should give you something else..."
"No! You don't understand! I-" Before she could say anything else, he grabbed her arm and wrapped his arms around her. Resting his cheek on her head using both of his hands to rub her back. Kagome wasn't doing anything except resting her cheek on his chest, still trying to get over the shock of what Inuyasha did. She was about to tell him she loves him....how much she wanted to be with him. She wrapped her arms around his waist and felt his warm body more then ever.
"Sorry....Kagome....but before I leave.....I want to tell you that I love you...from the bottom of my heart....good luck without me around anymore."
Kagome felt his body disappearing from her arms. The warmth she was feeling was disappearing from her slowly. When she looked up at Inuyasha's face, she saw the sadness in his golden eyes. Then along with his body, his face disappeared too....and she fell forward to land on the follows on her stomach. She went to her side and cried to herself...he disappeared without letting him know she loves him so much!
"How long..." Inuyasha was getting weaker, he couldn't even finish the question he was going to ask. But Sango knew what he was asking.
"10 more minutes until you-know-what!" Said Sango.
"Do you really have to go, Inuyasha? You're going to break Kagome's heart into little pieces!" Said Shippo.
"Shut-"
"Up? I figure you were going to say that since it's like your favorite word!!"
"Hey! Can't you tell I'm dying in a couple of-"
"...minutes! I know! I'm just saying!"
Kirara was sitting next to Inuyasha's head. "Meow!" Cried Kirara.
Inuyasha turned his head to face Kirara and smiled. He pat her head. "Yeah...I'll miss you too when I die.." said Inuyasha.
"Who said you're going to die!? You still have a lot of things to do. Like say that you love Kagome. And you can't leave without you telling her that!" Said Sango.
"But-"
"Hey! You're dying in a few minutes! You're too weak that you can't finish a sentence!!"
"HEY!!"
"Sango...maybe you need to calm down. Let Inuyasha say something!" Said Shippo.
"Fine!"
"You were saying?"
"I'll tell her I love her...if she wakes up. Otherwise, she won't know how I truely feel....and-"
"Don't worry Inuyasha!!" Shouted Miroku. "I'll slap her face to death until she wakes up!!"
"You better not-"
"Don't worry! I won't do it that hard!! It's just a slight slap! But if she doesn't wake up in the next 5 min. I'll give her a big slap!!"
"....go ahead...."
Miroku started to get his hands ready for a little slapping. That gave Sango and Shippo a scarey look right there. What was Inuyasha thinking!?
Kagome walked silently in the flower field, her hands clenched to her chest, crying to herself. She just lost the man she loved...for good. She should've told him how she felt when she first knew she was in love with him. It was only a waste of time, all she wanted to do is tell him she loves him before he dies or even if she dies.
"You stupid...jerk!" Angered Kagome. "You could've at least given me the chance to say goodbye or something like that!"
So angry....yet so sad. All she ever wished for is to be with him for the rest of her life. Why did it have to be this way? Why now? Why not after they get married or when they have children? Why not after her death? Or something like that...but why now? Full of questions she decided not to answer those stupid questions in her head.
"Hm? What's that I feel...on my hip?" Asked Kagome. She looked at the spots where her hip is and nothing was touching it. Then she realized that this was only a dream...plus...she felt something slapping her cheeks. She would be thinking it's Inuyasha but why would he be touching her hip? So she suspects....
"AH!! Stop that Miroku!!" Kagome slapped Miroku hard and took a few steps away from him. Miroku put his hands up to tell her he surrenders to her. "Never DO THAT AGAIN!!!"
"I understand! But I think you should go see Inuyasha..." said Miroku.
"Where is he?" She calmed down fast!
"A few feet behind you!" He pointed to him which is behind her. Kagome turned around and saw Inuyasha on the ground, with Sango sitting next to him and Shippo sitting on his stomach. Kirara was on Sango's shoulder.
Kagome panicked and ran to them to see what happened to Inuyasha. She was shocked when she got closer to him, like a few steps closer. She saw a big and deep wound over his heart, the sight of it scared her but she didn't care about that. All she cared about was Inuyasha. She kneeled down to look at him closer. She put her hand on the back of Inuyasha's head and to lift him up a little bit, she put her hand on his arm so she won't touch the deep wound.
Sango and Shippo stepped away and stood by Miroku who was standing near by. Miroku whispered to Sango to ask how long until the sun comes up. She says about 5 min...that's not good! We can't let our Inuyasha die! ( Heh- heh!)
Inuyasha put his hand on her face and smiled...knowing that he sees the light coming out...the sun will be coming VERY soon.
"What happened!?" Asked Kagome. "Let's hurry on home! We can treat the wound!"
"I'm afraid it's a little too late, Kagome..." said Inuyasha.
"Huh...?"
"Before the sun comes up...I need to tell you something..." said Inuyasha.
"What do you mean? What happens when the sun comes up?" Questioned Kagome.
"When the sun rises...I'll die..."
"What? Why?" Kagome was starting to have tears coming to her eyes. Too much pain...
Inuyasha sighed and put his hand down for it to rest on his stomach. "Remember about 2 months ago...that I was going to tell you....why I was here?"
"Yeah...." she answered slowly.
"Here's the reason....I was cursed...by Naraku."
"That's why you wanted to kill Naraku so much..."
"At my old home, there was this lake...near it..." He needed to tell her without hesitating. "I thought it would give me eternal life...but when I took a sip out of that lake, I was wrong. It shorten my life span. Naraku then came and told me he cursed that lake. He told me if anyone drinks from that lake, they become cursed and only have 2 months to live...and that 2 months is almost up....it'll end once the sun rises."
"There's no...way to break the curse?"
"No way....at all!"
Sango, Shippo and Miroku were shocked. Miroku used his index finger to tap Sango's shoulder to get her attention. Shippo just watched them talking while he just stands there knowing nothing of what they're talking about.
"(He's not telling her the whole truth!)" Complained Sango.
"(I know. But there's not much time. He only has 3 and a half minutes left!)" Said Miroku. They got their attention back to Inuyasha and Kagome.
"I'm sorry Kagome...but I have to go. I thought beating Naraku will end the curse but I was wrong....I'm near death..."
Kagome put her hand on his chest, avoiding the wound over his heart and clenched her hand so she can make a tight grip. Now Kagome was actually crying...and the tears rolled down her cheeks and dropped to Inuyasha's wound. He flinched a couple of times but he got use to the pain.
"I also thought the Shikon no Tama will help keep me alive more longer....but that only awaken my demon power...which helped me control myself but it didn't work either."
"No....please....no! Why now!? [This is almost like my dream...but instead he can't hug me or anything like that!] I don't want you to leave me! Not now, not ever!!"
"But before I go...can I have one last kiss from you....?"
"There's no such thing as a last kiss! There never was! Love comes and goes and each love you receive you kiss them! You're the one who taught me that!!"
"How-? Never mind...I think I know how you know...."
"Why you didn't tell me before?"
"Miroku...how long until-"
"About 2 min." Said Miroku. He was losing hope, but he wouldn't give up just because there was so little time left. He wanted to yell out to Kagome to tell him how she feels about him.
"Kagome....I know time is running out and-"
"The others knew? They knew and I didn't? Did my family knew? Was I the only one who didn't know about all of this?"
"One minute left....Inuyasha...." said Miroku. Now he was going to lose hope.
Inuyasha's body was starting to disappear in front of her eyes....just like her dream. But she can still hold on to his kimono, she cried even more and harder and couldn't speak...but time was running out for him as when she saw the light of the sun trying to creep out so the life can end for Inuyasha.
"I love you....Kagome Higurashi....That's what I wanted to tell you before I die..." said Inuyasha.
"YOU CAN'T DIE!!"
"I'll rest my eyes while my body slowly disappears in front of all of you...."
Kagome forced her head on Inuyasha's chest, not caring that even though some of her hair landed on to his open wound. Feeling the little remaining warmth from his body....crying while the warmth and him disappears slowly from her.
"(30 seconds left....)" Miroku whispered to himself, but it was strong enough for Sango and Shippo to hear. And they started to cry as Kagome loses her love in front of her eyes.
"YOU CAN'T DIE YET!!! THERE IS SOME THINGS I STILL WANT TO TELL YOU AND TO DO WITH YOU!! I WANT TO MARRY YOU, I WANT TO HAVE KIDS WITH YOU, TO START A FAMILY SO WE CAN ALL BE HAPPY!! WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS....." Kagome used all her might to yell out.... "I LOVE YOU INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She shed her tears a lot when she FINALLY said those 3 words.... She finally told him the words he needed. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo were shocked and a little happy and were waiting for Inuyasha's remains to come back.
Inuyasha opened his eyes and saw the sun coming up. He was happy when Kagome said those words, not just because he wants to break the curse, because he loves her dearly.
Suddenly, his body turned yellow and he started to float to his feet. Kagome got off of his chest and saw him floating a few feet above the ground. Kagome knew the sun is doing this, giving him the new life, it was like the sun decides if he dies or not. Then, something shiny appeared around Inuyasha's body....sparkles of life? They didn't know, so they waited for it to be done.
Kagome thought this was it...he was going to die. ( She still doesn't know that her love to Inuyasha broke the curse!) Then a light ball appeared in front of Inuyasha and it slowly floated to the deep wound and went inside to his heart. The wound was healed....but now what?
The others took the next action by surprise. The sparkles just made a flash around him and just went inside his body, the arms, the legs, his head....etc. And that made his whole body gave out a burst of light and that blinded the others for a second.
After their sight was back, they saw Inuyasha on the ground laying on his back with his eyes closed. Was he alive.....or dead? They weren't sure. Kagome went over to his side and lift up his head....she cried even more....he was dead! "Why!?" She screamed. She put his head on her chest and squeezed it and closed her eyes real tight and let her tears of pain roll down to his hair. "Why did you have to leave me!!?" Kagome cried like she never cried before....crying like a little kid when they knew someone died.
Miroku and the others lost hope. It was the end of Inuyasha's life for good....and there's no way to bring him back. Not even the Shikon no Tama can help to bring him back to life...but maybe Sesshomaru can help. But then again, Sesshomaru usually finds them and he won't be coming back anymore because Inuyasha is dead! But after a few minutes, they saw something move...
Inuyasha's hand.....
They heard some kind of mumbling...from Inuyasha or Kagome? They tried to be very quite and listen again but it was hard because of Kagome sobbing.
"You're squeezing to hard...."
Kagome stopped sobbing....well almost stopped but it has calmed down. She let loose of her arms and let her hands hold his face to see his eyes...
He's alive!
Kagome was so happy....happier then ever! She thought she lost her love....again. ( The reason because of the second time...is because of the dream she had.) Kagome gave him a big hug....squeezing his head againn really tight, so Inuyasha can't breathe.
"What happened? I thought you died!!" Cried Kagome with tears of joy.
"Kagome....if you let Inuyasha go...he might explain," said Miroku.
Kagome did and wanted Inuyasha to sit up. Kagome saw those golden eyes and was really happy....over joyed I would say. Kagome tried to calm down and wanted to ask him the question.
"I thought you died....but how?"
"I didn't tell you the whole truth about the curse, Kagome," said Inuyasha. "There was a way for me to break the curse...actually its more like someone has to break it for me. The way was: For someone to say 'I love you' from the heart will break the curse...."
Inuyasha stood up to look at the sun and back at Kagome. He held out his hand so he can help her up. She took it, and Inuyasha pulled her up to stand up. Miroku, Sango and Shippo were very happy, they just saw Inuyasha and Kagome staring at each other happily. Then they looked at each other and laughed....but!
"OSUWARI!!!" Screamed Kagome. They looked at each other and heard the loud bang in the ground. They looked at Kagome and Inuyasha....Inuyasha's head was in the ground. "OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARI!! OSUWARIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!"
That made a few cracks in the ground!
Inuyasha forced himself to stand up and looked at Kagome angrily. "What the heck was that for!?" Asked Inuyasha.
"For not telling me about the curse sooner!!" Answered Kagome.
"There was no reason for you to know!!"
"Yes there was, stupid!!"
"Well, look on the bright side!! I'm still alive right?"
"You may be alive but you woke up from the dead with your HEAD in the ground!!"
"That's because you said that 's' word!!"
"Do you want me to say it again!!"
"No I don't!! You can at least be happy that I'm alive!!"
"I can't believe they're fighting after Inuyasha almost died..." said Shippo.
"Yup! It's embarrassing!" Said Miroku.
"Let's go before they explode!" Said Sango. "Come on Kirara!"
Kirara jumped on Sango's shoulder and they all left Kagome and Inuyasha. They were still arguing about not-telling-Kagome-about-the-curse thing!
"Why you didn't tell me before?" Asked Kagome.
"Because if I told you, you would just say those words right from the beginning and it wouldn't count!!" Answered Inuyasha.
"Maybe you were better off dead!"
"If I was you would be miserable and say that you wish I was here because you LOVE ME SO MUCH!!"
"I may love you but what about you!? If you loved me you would've told me THE WHOLE TRUTH!!"
They were getting tired of arguing, their throats was soar. They were huffing and puffing and couldn't take it anymore. That's when they realized they were all alone. They looked around to double check....they knew Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kirara....has left them both! To embarrass themselves in front of each other!
"HEY!!! GUYS!!! WAIT FOR US!!!!!" Shouted Kagome and Inuyasha. They started to run down the mountain together, not realizing that they were holding hands while they ran down the mountain.
