Rain heavily poured down in the loamy skies that were blacked out by murky clouds, it was pure darkness as the last source of light came to a fade. A figure fell on their knees staring at her hands shaking nonetheless, she glanced up slightly staring at the many fallen bodies before her. The foolish monk had sacrificed himself for the demon slayer, in which return, she was killed from a broken heart and a simple spell. They had fallen next to each other, exactly how they would've wanted it. Then that futile fox boy had been in the arms of that miko who would have given anything to save him. They had both fallen quickly, but that girl, was still alive, breathing her last as she pulled the little kitsunes motionless body closer to her. Her arm gradually dragged along the mud as she met the half-demons claw, where it closed around her small, delicate hand.

The girl had suddenly begun to glow as the figure watched carefully, and as quickly as it came, it shot out of the girl's body and she became still just like the rest. The light shot into the skies as it began to circle around the figure that was on their knees and with a flash, the light-the soul, had entered her. She could feel again, she felt warmth cover her body that quickly vanished as the rain hit against her skin and ran through her silky, raven hair. She closed her eyes becoming familiar with her soul once again, the missing piece had returned to her. She was now real...she was alive once again to roam around the earth as she pleased.

But she stayed still, her eyes re-opened as it stared at the half-demon with waist-length silver hair. She had killed him, she hadn't meant to, but he, just like the monk, had sacrificed himself to save that girl. She didn't understand. Wasn't it she he vowed to always protect? Didn't he say they would always be together? But she had watched as he screamed that girls name and ran in front of her receiving the blast instead. His golden- orbed eyes stared at her, they had met gazes right before he was hit, she understood, they had loved each other, and because of her, they hadn't admitted it. The half-demon had vowed to protect Kagome now, not her. Kagome was the one for him now, and she knew it.

The rain began coming down harder, it stung her delicate skin as she once again stared at the half-demon. Her once love. She closed her eyes quickly trying to prevent the tears that were trying to release themselves. She slammed her arms into the ground meeting with mire as she began crying, she wailed out as she cried. After more then 50 years she had cried. She cried for the lost love, she cried for everything she could've had and should've had. Naraku was the only thing that came through her mind. Naraku was the one at fault.

Sesshomaru was passing along the lands when he felt an aura vanish suddenly. His eyes paled as he recognized it as his brothers, how could his brother have died? Who would be strong enough to defeat his little brother, ran though his mind. Then he felt another aura leave, but then reappear in another body completing that person. He stared in the east slightly; it was dark as heavy rain pounded against the land, as the lightning flickered. Only one person he knew of could have that much power, have control over so much and still look frail. Kikyou.

He closed his eyes slightly as he thought about Naraku's agreement. To slay the fallen priestess Kikyou and he would get any desire. To him, killing her was a treat, seeing her beg for mercy was a gift he had waited for a long time. Of course, he would need her help in getting rid of Naraku for good, but after that, he would easily slay her without a thought. He began walking towards the dark land in search for his new alliance.

It was morning to his senses but the sky was still dark and void, the land was lifeless as the trees were bare. Everything was destroyed as bushes still burned. No life was near but that of the priestess who hadn't moved. He walked delicately crushing skulls as he walked, all of the demons were heading north trying to escape from the destruction, but nothing could've saved them. He stopped suddenly as he saw the priestess in the mud that was covering her; nothing on her was clean as he saw a tear escape and streak down along her milky-white cheek. Sesshomaru stood next to her as he knelt down and ran a hand along her cheek wiping away her tear.

"You never cried for me," he whispered as he gently picked her up and carried her away. With each step he took the life began to re-grow and nurture. He stared back down at her and quickly looked back up. "My brother was lucky..."

She stared at the demon as she took his hand in hers; she met his gaze as snow gently fell from the heavens. He wrapped his tail around her as he brought her warmth from the weather. Then he began backing up from her, she reached out to touch him but he vanished as she ran her hand through smoke. Her eyes widened as the ground vanished and she was falling, falling from him. She could see nothing but a haze as strong arms encircled around her body that brought her close to him, there she met a half-demons warm smile. His ears twitched slightly as his golden orbs twinkled. She instantly clicked to him now that she was alone in the world.

A smell reached her nose as she was suddenly pulled back from the warm grasp, she woke suddenly as she stared forward seeing stars twinkle at her. She then remembered what had happened, she had killed them...all of them. She closed her eyes as she suddenly felt a very well known presence; she sat up quickly and turned around where Sesshomaru sat watching her, his face expressionless. They stared at one another when he rose; he walked over to the cackling fire where Kikyou watched him carefully.

"Sesshomaru..." he looked at her, his eyes gloomy.

A/N- See, not that big of a difference, but ya know what I messed up on here with? Could getting her soul back bring her back to life? NO!! So I'll just say that she wished to be alive once again and she wanted more then just hatred running though her and needed the rest of her soul. And I also didn't explain why she killed em. Hmm... you figure it out.
