This is the FINAL CHAPTER , peoples, so pay attention. I gave up on the voting, cause nobody voted. However I did get several reviews, and there is an Honorary Mention to do. All I have to say for my self, as far as how it ends, is that I am sorry. But I had to end it somehow, and In case you didn't notice, this story is ANGST! Not necessarily a happy ending.

Todays Honorary Mention, and the last one for the story, is Inuyasha-Freak15. Thanks for reviewing this story. I am sorry I don't have much to say today. But I am very grateful to you. I have a goal of 200 reviews, and every single person who reviews is a help. When I do reach my goal, I will do something special for every one who was once an Honorary Mention. I will thank our properly then.

"What are you trying to pull?" Dr. Laceni demanded. Kagome was confused. She had expected confusion. Amazement, maybe. But not anger! Why was he angry at her? She glared warningly at Inuyasha, who was looking about ready to follow through with his threat to pull the doctors ears off. This could get ugly.

What was I thinking?! She thought, aghast. She had just realized that she had made a potential enemy out of her therapist. Not something easy to do, and certainly not wise. "Dr. Laceni, I can grantee you, those ears are real, see look." She pushed aside Inuyashas hair, the threat of a sit the only thing keeping him in check.

Dr. Laceni just shook his head, wondering if he was losing it, when he saw that Inuyasha had no ears on the side of his head. "So, am I supposed to automatically believe that you are dating a hybrid thing, half dog and half human, with no proof at all? No real proof?" He asked rather angrily.

"Hey! I am NOT a thing!" Inuyasha protested, advancing on the poor man with claws at the ready. Kagome could see that this was going to be a problem. Inuyasha would kill him if she didn't do anything!

"Sit!" She yelled, causing poor Inuyasha to do a face plant. Ha! Never anger someone who can make you kiss the dirt. She thought triumphantly.

"What was that for?!" Inuyasha shrieked. This is getting out of hand. She thought grimly.

"I have seen enough. I dont know who you think you're trying to fool, young lady, but I refuse to work with you any longer." Dr. Laceni snapped, coloring with anger. Oh, well. She thought with regret. He was pretty good. I guess hes just too down to earth.

She watched as he turned briskly away, walking to his car. He left way too fast, it had to be above the speed limit. She really did wish he had worked out. He was just too..... skeptical. Honestly, I need someone I can tell everything to. A friend from my time who I can talk to about why Ive really been missing school, and that sort of thing.

"Lets go, Kagome." Inuyasha said. He had the air of a parent who was furious with their child. What was I thinking? She thought again miserably. No one spoke the entire way to the well, or when they were going through it. Well, its not my fault Inuyashas a DDDD jerk! Its his fault!

She didn't quite know how it was Inuyashas fault, but it had to be his fault somehow. She had to find someone to blame.

When they climbed out of the well, Inuyasha stared at her, ice in his eyes. He opened his mouth, said nothing, then shook his head. Then suddenly he looked angry. When finally he spoke, she was almost happy. She didn't know what was worse. The silence, that horrible silence, or his yelling.

"What the FFFF were you thinking?!" He yelled furiously. "What kind of stunt are you trying to pull. I dont know much about your time, but people there would think I was a monster!" But you are, sort of! Arent you used to that by now? He looked at her like maybe she had lost it. She looked squarely back at him.

"What kind of idiot tries to introduce a demon to a human with no knowledge of demons, or spirits, or- or- or anything!? How stupid are you?" This was not the Inuyasha she knew. He was in a rage! Was this really that big? Kagome thought. Suddenly she ran for the river, not a thought in her mind as to what she was doing. Tears blurred her eyes.

Inuyasha just stared at her retreating back, not knowing what to do. She disapeared into the trees. It looked like she was heading for the river. His sensitive nose picked up traces of a demon. Kagome! She doesnt know! The demons scent came from the direction of the river. It was a frog demon or something. Ugh. I hate frogs. Inuyasha thought with a certain amount of disgust.

Suddenly he heard a scream. Kagome! He sprang for the river. He didnt notice a small weight leaving him, so bent on rescueing the girl he loved. He reached the river, to see that the frog demon had pushed Kagome under the river. Bubbles rose to the surface. Inuyasha leaped for the river trying in vain to pull Kagome out. For some odd reason it didnt occur to him to kill the demon.

The demon snickered, and he felt himself fall under the water. he tried to return to the surface, but couldnt. He hadnt taken a breath before being submerged. He was running out of air! How can I save Kagome if I drown? He thought. Now that it had finally occured to him to kill the stupid demon, he found that lack of oxygen made him too weak to try.

He was getting dizzy. Kagome seemed to be unconcious already, and he held tightly onto her. A red haze was slowly beginning to dominate his vision. Kagome opened her eyes breifly, and wrapped her arms around her. Suddenly something snapped. It seemed lovely to float here. No a care in the world....

Suddenly it didnt matter anymore. He was feeling good. Happy. Peaceful. So this is how it ends. He thought calmly. It didnt seem to be important. What could be more important than just floating here forever?

He was tired. So, so tired. But it didnt matter. Nothing mattered anymore. Not really. All that mattered was that Kagome was here. And he was here. They were at last together. Nothing separated them anymore, not even time. No more worries, no more problems....... nothing but Kagome and Inuyasha.

Kagome. I love you, Kagome. And now we are here together. And we will be together forever and for all eternity. Together forever....... Kagome....... He faded from conciousness. Colors swirled around him, then everything was black.

Everything seemed so misty. But he was here. Kagome was in his arms, just like he had promised her. He had promised that once Naraku was dead, they would be together forever.

Inuyasha drew his lovely Kagome towards him, a passionate kiss ready to spring from his lips. He had waited so long. So long for the pure, simple peace of love. A soft, yet firm hand brushed his cheek.

She, his wonderful pure, perfect goddess, looked joyfully into his amber eyes, and tears made the scene more misty than before. Inuyasha recognized this dream. "Are we dreaming?" He murmured.

"Not anymore Inuyasha. I think we died. But you know what? I dont mind." Kagome whispered back. No more barriers separated them. They embraced, and Inuyasha knew they would be together forever. Forever and all of eternity.
