~Chapter: One Last Chance~
As I walked away from the clearing, as I walked from him...Inuyasha, I felt utter loneliness. Even though I have rejected him for the second time, we were in tune with each other's feelings, and this was even before the wish I made upon to Shikon no tama.
I feel as if Inuyasha and I were bonded by the heart and soul, and now since I have run away from him, closed my heart to him, I broke that bond. Things will never be the same now, I will always feel the pain and sadness he caused in me, and now loneliness.
But...there is a way to fix it, wait, that will never happen.
There I go again with my silly imagination, I was thinking maybe, if I could fall in love again, it would help make the sorrow go away.
Then that only leaves the loneliness. But maybe I don't want to fall in love again, maybe it's just fate for me to be alone.
"No, it's not fate for you to be alone." Came a cool voice from behind her.
Who is that? I turned to see the Inu-youkai with stoic face and intense golden eyes. Wait...had I really said that aloud?? And he had happened to hear me?
"Don't try and tell me different. If fate didn't want me to be lonely, why has the utter sense of loneliness developed in my soul?" I looked directly into his eyes, my stare never wavering.
"Fate didn't make that loneliness develop, you did. By once again turning away from the one that you are destined to be with." He spoke calmly.
Realization hit me hard like a fierce wind on a cold day, and I had to get by footing before being blown away. Had I pushed Inuyasha away, as he did me? Have I made the same mistake he has done?
I tried to shake the thoughts from my head. "Why are you here?" I said trying to get my mind on something else.
I watched as his eyes flickered for just a heartbeat before disappearing completely and as fast as it had came. If I had not been staring into his eyes, I would not have even noticed.
"I would rather see you happy and with him, than sad and lonely." With that he disappeared. Must have been the demon speed.
I stood there for a long time pondering over what he had said, not just about me pushing Inuyasha away but him saying he'd rather see me happy and with Inuyasha, than sad and lonely.
Deciding not to wrack my already tired mind and just head home because I was drained both physically and emotionally.
I walked to the well like in some sort of trance and I was shaken from this trance as I fell into the blue swirl that engulfed me.
_______________________________________________________________________
I had somehow managed to pull myself out of the well and drag my body up to my room, where I immediately passed out cold on my bed.
I had a very disturbing dream.
*~*~*Dream*~*~*
I was sitting in something, which looked like a study, and in front of me sat a desk with Sesshoumaru sitting behind it. I looked to the right to see Inuyasha sitting beside him.
They were talk amongst themselves as I sat quietly, wondering what was going on, and why was I here.
"Yes, Ms. Higurashi me and my associate have discussed it over and have decided to let you choose." I heard Sesshoumaru say. Then Inuyasha piped in.
"So Kagome, who will it be?"
~*~*~*End*~*~*~
I woke with a start, I looked around and calmed instantly, I was not in a study with Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru facing me, asking me to choose.
But...it was very confusing for, why was Sesshoumaru in the picture when fate, I think, put Inuyasha and I to be destined to each other?
As I rose from my bed a pain struck me, and I realized I had a major headache. "Ooh. My head hurts." Standing, I decided to wash and maybe then get something to eat, though I wasn't really hungry.
____Hours Later____
The sky, what beautiful and peacefulness it holds. I gazed up at the heavenly body that surrounds the planet. Taking in a breath, the thoughts that had been supressed all day came sneaking back in.
"Oh Kami! Jeez, why can't this all just go away!"
"It can't go away, cause this is fate's way of saying you need to fix this problem." I jumped at the voice and turned around quickly. My breath caught in my throat. There he was, sitting in the tree above me. Inuyasha.
After a moment or two, my voice decided to come back. "W-what are you doing here?" My voice cracked a little.
"What do you think? I came back to get you, Kagome. "He spoke, jumping down from the tree, "we have to continue gathering the shards."
My heart re-sank, I thought he came back for me. A small sob escaped my lips and another damned tear slipped down my cheek.
"Why do you cry? Why do you shed tears Kagome?" I looked at him as if to say 'What do think I cry for??'
"Cause, I thought you came back for me, for us to become one, once again, for our bond to be renewed." The tears kept falling down my face.
"I did come for you Kagome, but you pushed me away. You made it perfectly clear that you no longer wanted anything to do with me, you made it perfectly clear that you hated me." The flood of tears became a raging waterfall as I feel to my knees.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha, ok? Is that what you want me to say? To get on my knees and beg for your forgiveness? I just...want the pain to stop, I want to stop hurting, to stop feeling to utterly alone. All I want to do is be with you. That's all I want." That all came out in a whisper.
If Inuyasha had been human, he would not have caught it. After all I had said, he only turned and walked away.
I watched him leave and my heart was crumbling to pieces once again. I fought the urge to let him go and sprang to my feet. I ran after him and tripped into his arms.
"Please, Inuyasha, don't leave me, not again. Please...I beg of you." The sobs cut through my voice, and I all I could do was cry as I waited for his response.
