Chapter 6

Sango silently picked up the sleeping Shippo and walked away towards the village. Myroku had gone first to get packed. Leaving tonight seemed like a lie somehow...but she had to. Even if Inuyasha did catch on...she wondered if he would save her...or act like he knew nothing at all. In a way she was sparing him even more pain...because she couldn't think that doing this would cause him even more. He had already mourned her death...what more could this do?

Myroku met her by the tree by the path that leads to the well. Sango looked down at his little sleeping body.

"Should we take Shippo?" she asked. Myroku shook his head.

"No I fear that this will be to dangerous for him with no one to watch him if we both are fighting..." she nodded, of course...you are right Myroku. She laid him next to Kagome and went back to the tree.

"Should we tell Keade?"

"She is a smart woman Songo...she will guess." she nodded.

"Again...you are right.. I'm just...I'm just going to miss everyone."

"Hmmm...we can always stay...we can always just let Inu-"

"No Myroku...you know that, that is no choice at all."

"Let us go then." he whispered. And they were off.

**The next morning

"KAGOME DO YOU HAVE TO GO? WERE ARE YOU GOING ANYWAY?" Shouted Shippo as Kagome packed her things. Oh Shippo! She thought 'What if I never see you again!?' And where were Sango and Myroku?? There stuff was gone...did they leave without her and Inuyasha to kill Naraku on there own?? Were they tired of all the melodrama?? Tears filled her eyes. She had been crying a lot. It happens when you're close to death.

"That's what I'd like to know." Said Inuyasha calmly. Strange. He thought to himself. Shouldn't I be worried? Were is she going? I'm... I'm obviously coming with her right? She isn't stupid enough to think that I would let her go right? So he asked her. She turned to look at him.

"NO Inuyasha your not coming...this is something I have to do by myself..." A lie maybe...but she could not have Inuyasha coming with her.... If she was to kill Kikyo.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? I CAN'T LET YOU GO ALONE!! NOT WITH..NOT WITH...."

"You know Kagome that Kikyo will be looking for you." Kagome looked at the old woman. She had told her were she was going...

"WHAT?? GOD!! NOW I CAN'T LET YOU GO! I..I mean..."

"You don't know what you would do Inuyasha you would protect me but nothing else..."

"I have failed you Kagome..."

"No Inuyasha you haven't failed me at all! You have been there so many times!" now I must save myself she thought.

"THEN WERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING?" Kagome bit her lip. She couldn't tell him. His eyes grew wide.

"Kagome?" He knew.

"No! Inuyasha stop! I must do this! Stay here! Don't do anything! JUST STAY HERE!" At this she ran out hugging Shippo.

"Good-bye Shippo!" she said choking on tears. She stopped running and put him down.

"KAGOME! KAGOME COME BACK HERE!" Inuyashas voice.

"Kagome don't leave me!" Pleaded the little fox.

She gave one last look at him and rode off on her bike. Inuyasha had not ran out. He didn't know what to do. He had sworn to protect both Kikyo and Kagome's life...but now...NOW THEY WERE BOTH TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER! WHAT WAS HE TO DO!?

"Let the strongest win," said a voice in his head. And he knew it to be true.
