Inuyasha's Loss

Hi...here's the chapter six. This is in the morning when KiLaLa is racing the sun.

Warning: You might need a tissue in this chapter!

6. Mama's gone?

KiLaLa ran as fast as she could. 'I'm going to beat you,' she thought. She loved racing the sun. Right before dawn, she would run to a certain point before it came up. Nobody would notice her because she was so fast that she appeared as a blur.

She ran as fast as she could. 'Almost there!' The sun was a second from coming up when she made it. "Ha! Beat you again..." She sat under an apple tree and rested a while before making her way home. She walked home slowly to enjoy the scenery.

"KiLaLa!" the old man yelled when she was almost home. She ran to the hut to find the old man outside. "What is it?" she asked. He looked sad. "It's your mother. She's had a heart attack." KiLaLa ran into the hut to find her mom lying on her futon.

"Mama?" she said and lied down with her. She looked pale and like she was in pain. "Did you beat the sun?" Kagome asked with a smile. "Yeah, but are you okay?" KiLaLa asked. "Don't worry about me. Just come and lie down with me." KiLaLa laid with her mom so she could put her arm around her. They fell asleep together as night came.

KiLaLa woke up with the sun shining on her face. She rolled over to face her mom and noticed she wasn't breathing. "Mama?" she asked and shook her a little bit. Kagome didn't answer. "Mama?" she asked again and started crying. Kagome didn't answer.

The old man walked in the hut when he heard KiLaLa yelling. He noticed Kagome wasn't breathing and knew she was gone. He had a hard time getting KiLaLa away from her. She cried and screamed for her mother to get up, but she never did.

They buried her by the sacred tree since she spent all her time there. They placed a grave that said, "Kagome, lover of Inuyasha and beloved mother." KiLaLa spent the whole day by her mother's grave, crying and telling her to come back.

The old man had to carry her away from the tree. She didn't sleep all night and wouldn't eat. She refused to talk to anyone. She would just sit in the corner and hum a song.

The old man finally got enough courage to give her a talk. He went to the corner and sat by her. KiLaLa stopped humming and looked at the old man. "If your mother was watching you right now, is this how you would act?" he asked.

"No..." she said and wiped her eyes. "Then why are you acting this way? How would your mother want you to act?" The old man seemed to be making a good point. "She would want me to play and race and be happy."

"Then why aren't you doing that?" he asked. "I don't know..." She thought about all the things that made her mom happy and why she wasn't still doing them. "Then how about we start over and be happy. Remember all the good times you had with your mother and be happy about them.

"You're right. I should still be happy. I should still be strong." She got up and went outside. The old man watched her mood change right away. She was back to her free-spirited self.

KiLaLa ran to the sacred tree and kneeled by her mom's grave. "Mama, I'm sorry that I acted so sad, but for now on, I will be happy like you wanted."

She ran around the forest laughing and playing. It was the best time she had. As night fell, she soon heard the old man calling her name. She ran to the hut and found dinner ready. She soon ate and fell asleep, but this time she didn't sleep on her futon. She leaned against the wall and fell asleep while sitting up. Just like her father slept.

The days went on and KiLaLa spent the days with practicing shooting arrows and swinging swords. Chasing her ball and racing the sun. She was happy and that's all she did was be happy.

Inuyasha had finally made it to the well. He checked for his weapons for the unexpected and jumped in. He soon landed at the bottom and looked around. 'Nothing different at all,' he thought. He climbed out of the well to find a different place.

The old man was walking in the forest when he saw Inuyasha. "Excuse me, who are you?" the old man asked. "Who are you, old man?" Inuyasha asked, stubbornly. "You couldn't be Inuyasha, could you?" he asked again. "What if I am?" Inuyasha was shocked that the old man knew him.

"Oh, it is such an honor to meet you. Miss Kagome had told me so much about you," he said while shaking Inuyasha's hand. "Kagome! Where is she!" Inuyasha yelled and took his hand away. "Why don't we take a walk and I will show you where she is." The old man starting walking away from Inuyasha and hoped he would follow.

Inuyasha did what he was told. 'Anything to find Kagome,' he thought.
