KYM- Okay I have the most reviews yet. It's great to wake up in the afternoon and find half of your in-box is reviews. THANK YOU ALL!!! Some of you don't know where the plot is going. To you: Neither do I. I'm sort of making it up as I go. I get the reviews and then I type the next chapter and post it immediately. Well cept this time and others when I have a semi- idea. Some of you tried (and did) guess what I was going to do next. To you: Gee I'm pretty predictable. But don't worry... still many more plot twists to come and probably a little sequel.
Disclaimer- I was KYM's lawyer. But now that she has to sneak onto the computer at 3 am instead of being on with permission I have to be a guard.
KYM- Hehem?
Disclaimer- And a lowly disclaimer. KYM owns nothing. Good. The world is better off that way.
KYM- ::cute off Lawyer's head:: Don't worry he always manages to come back and haunt me. -.- Here's the story!
That was the final straw for Kikyo. She released the arrow.
Now anyone would think that considering the arrow was up against Kagome's skull it would've pierced into her flesh killing her instantly. (Hint hint: Nuh uh!) As the arrow was released a barrier formed. The arrow melted upon contact with her pale skin.
"Impossible", Kikyo said. 'Her miko powers cannot be stronger than mine. It is an impossibility! She is merely my reincarnation!'
"It's over Kikyo", Kagome said. Her hair blew in a slight wind. Her eyes were more narrow that usual and burning with determination.
"Die", Kagome shrieked releasing an arrow. Kikyo caught it in her fingers.
"You are weak", she hissed readying another arrow. "Now you wanna try and melt another arrow?"
Kagome stood fast prepared to root herself into her place.
Kikyo released another arrow at Kagome... which veered and hit InuYasha.
"InuYasha", Kagome shrieked rushing again to his side. She stroked his white hair. "InuYasha say something!"
"Kagome... take Tetsusaiga", he said. "And Kagome... if something happens to me... remember that I love you."
"Don't say that", Kagome said taking the sword. "You're going to be okay."
"This time I'm really not sure." His eyes slid closed as he drifted to sleep. (You know like a nap. Not death.)
"You BITCH", Kagome yelled.
"Me", Kikyo said. "You're one to talk. And now you think you can destroy me with that small sword."
"Yes", Kagome said confidently but trembling inside.
InuYasha meanwhile had gained the strength to sit up. He took Kagome's bow and arrow in his hands. 'If I can hit Kikyo it will be enough distraction Kagome can destroy her once and for all with the Tetsusaiga.' He shot an arrow. It grazed Kikyo's arm and hair. "This time it is me that's trying to kill you."
"InuYasha", she hissed. Foolishly she turned and took a few steps towards him.
Kagome eyed him suspiciously but still acted fast. Creeping up on Kikyo very quickly she sliced the sword in half of her.
"This isn't happening", Kikyo shrieked as souls left her body. "No!" Her last words were a mere whisper on the wind as she ceased to be.
Kagome rushed to InuYasha's side. "We did it", she said. "InuYasha. InuYasha?"
He opened his eyes after a bit of a struggle. "Kagome... I don't think that..."
"Don't say that", Kagome said. "You're going to live. You have to."
"Kagome... Kikyo hurt me really bad this time. I'm not gonna make it home with you."
"Don't say that! There's hospitals at my time and medicine and..."
"Kagome", his eyes pleaded with her. "Those were sacred arrows. These are more than just flesh wounds. I won't go to hell with her but I can't be with you anymore either."
"But your wish on the Shikon no Tama!"
"Fate will take care of me seeing you in your future then. But for now our time is over."
Tears streamed down Kagome's cheeks as she nodded understanding InuYasha would never be with her in this place or form ever again. "InuYasha... I love you."
"I love you too Kagome."
She took him up in his arms as he wrapped his around her the best he could.
"Please don't cry", he said. "I'll only die here. But I'll be back somehow. I guarantee it." His eyes slid shut never to open again.
Kagome cried and cried. "No", she called into the now night sky.
KYM- I know I killed him. But remember the wish he made on the Shikon no Tama. Don't miss the next chapter... the funeral. Or will it be? And then that might be the last chapter. It depends on which of the 3 ideas I have I decide to use. But whichever it is... It'll decide the length of this story and whether or not there's a sequel. So make guesses in your reviews... and REVIEW! Ja ne!
