Chapter 1
Amber eyes peered out at the girl sitting on the edge of the well from between the branches of a large tree. The one who they belonged to shifted slightly, drawing the attention of the girl. "I know your there Inuyasha." The hanyou smiled slightly as he jumped out of the tree. "Been awhile Kagome," he said. Her chocolate eyes filled with pain. Damn! Inuyasha thought seeing it. "Well, since the....the whole thing with Kikyo I thought it best to give you some space." Kagome answered shakily. Inuyasha's eyes flashed with pain and sorrow at the memory.
{Flashback} (A/N: There is gonna be a lot of 'em)
Inuyasha kill her!" Kikyo commanded, pointing to the bleeding Kagome. Eyes glazed, Inuyasha took a step forward. "Inuyasha," Kagome pleaded. "It's me. Kagome. Remember me?" Inuyasha stopped and turned to face Kikyo, confused. "Kill...Kagome?" "Yes you dolt! Kill Kagome!" Inuyasha's eyes cleared and he yelled, "Shut up wench! Don't order me around!" "You'll do as I say!" an enraged Kikyo cried. Inuyasha's eyes clouded over again and he took another step forward towards where Kagome lay on the ground. In great pain she stood up. "Inuyasha you don't want to do this." Kagome said quietly. She held her arms out to him and began to walk slowly toward him. "St-stay back!" Inuyasha pushed her to the ground and took a step back. "Inuyasha, I want her blood. Kill her for me." "Inuyasha please don't." Kikyo's wish...Kagome's pleading... it was just too much for Inuyasha. He clutched his head and started to scream. Kikyo began to walk towards him. Inuyasha turned and swiped at her. "Get away bitch!" he roared as she fell to the ground at his feet. Inuyasha shook his head and stared in horror at what he had done. "You...you worthless half-breed!!! It's your fault...all of it." Inuyasha shook his head again. "No..I...." Kikyo's dead eyes stared at him as Inuyasha scooped up the now unconscious Kagome and ran away into the night.
{Still in flashback, just farther ahead}
Kagome was hurt badly because of me, Kikyo... I killed her. Inuyasha thought as he sat staring into a river.
Kagome stood beside a tree and watched Inuyasha stare into the river. She could feel the sorrow and guilt rolling off of him in waves and her heart went out to him. Suddenly the wind shifted and carried her scent to Inuyasha. He stood and turned to face her. "Kagome ...I'm so sorry." Kagome lightly touched her side. Sango had bandaged it for her. Kagome's side and back were decorated by deep gashes, but the worst wound by far, was the one in her heart.
{Flashback before Kikyo's death. Sorry about all the flashbacks. I promise after this chappie there will be no more!}
"Kagome? Hello? Kagome?" "Huh?" Kagome looked up into the worried face of her close friend Sango. Her eyes were troubled. "You OK Kagome?" "I'm just a little worried about Inuyasha is all. He's been gone a long time."she explained. Sango smiled knowingly and sat down. "He has been gone awhile." Sango agreed, leaning back on her hand. Just then Miroku came crashing out of the forest with an armload of wood. He smiled sheepishly at the girls and sat down a respectful distance away. Sango shot death glares at him. Earlier his hand had wandered a bit, completely by "accident". Even now , hours later, his head was spinning from the hit he received for his actions. "Are you still mad at-""Yup." "Will you for-""No." "Plea-""Not a chance." Miroku looked at the ground and fiddled with his staff. "Maybe if I-""Nope." "Aww." Suddenly Shippo came running from the forest dripping wet. "Shippo what's wrong?!" Kagome asked as she scooped him up. "Inuyasha threw me in the river!" the small fox child cried. He went on to explain that he had just been playing around the river when Inuyasha showed up. Apparently the hanyou had sensed a demon shortly after that and told Shippo to go back to camp. Shippo had refused and was thrown in the river for it. "I'll go get him for you OK Shippo? Stay here with Sango and Miroku." Kagome said standing up to retrieve her quiver and bow. Miroku stood up and grabbed Kagome's arm. "Lady Kagome I must insist that I go along with you. To protect you." He let go of Kagome, crossed his arms, and sighed. "Of course it can't be helped if certain things happen." Kagome glared daggers at him until he sat down. "Or I could stay here." Kagome smiled and ran into the woods.
(I'm skipping a lot here. She is just running through the woods)
Kagome stopped and looked around panting. It was almost dark and she had not found Inuyasha. It was way to quiet and it made Kagome nervous. She scanned the trees again and a strange and horribly familiar light caught her attention. Kagome gathered up her strength and pushed forward. She stopped just before entering a brightly lit clearing. She hid behind a tree and caught her breath. Kagome peeked around the tree and held back a cry. There was Inuyasha and Kikyo embracing. Kagome bit into her fist to keep from sobbing out loud. "Come to hell with me my love." Kikyo was saying. Kagome bit down harder. Inuyasha pulled back a little and looked at Kikyo. "I ... I cant. What will Kagome do?" Kagome's eyes widened, he was denying Kikyo fir her?! Kikyo's eyes narrowed angrily. "You owe me your life."she reminded him. "Kikyo I cant! Kagome needs me." Inuyasha cried. "Do you love her?" "I...I..." Kikyo's face contorted with rage and hate. A large gaping hole opened beneath Kikyo and began to spread. "Come, you owe me your life." Inuyasha went limp against Kikyo as he was dragged down. Kagome stepped around the tree and into the clearing. "Inuyasha!!!" she cried. The hanyou went stiff the stood straight up. "Kagome?" "Yes Inuyasha it's me." Kagome hesitated before yelling, "Don't leave me Inuyasha! Please stay!" The portal closed and left Kikyo and Inuyasha standing there. "You..." Kikyo hissed. "How dare you! He owes me!" "He owes you nothing!" Kagome spat. "He has changed. He's a good person." Kikyo smiled coldly. "Person? Person?! He is no person, just a worthless half-breed." Inuyasha winced but made no move to defend himself. "Inuyasha. You must come with me to hell. But first, kill Kagome for me." Kikyo embraced him and kissed him. Kikyo broke the kiss and looked at Inuyasha. "Do it!" she whispered. Inuyasha's eyes clouded and her lunged at Kagome. She turned to run but it was to late. Inuyasha hit her square in the back and racked his claws along her back and side. Kagome fell to the ground and her blood pooled around her. Inuyasha got to his feet and took a few steps back. The scent of Kagome's blood had confused him slightly. "Inuyasha it's me!" Kagome cried. Kikyo laughed coldly and took a step forward.
(The rest you know.)
