Chapter 2
Inuyasha used his claws to tear the flesh open on Kagome's right side where he had made the wound before. He dug his hand into her side, ignoring the loud screams coming from Kagome.
She struggled to get away from Inuyasha, but every time she moved Inuyasha would dig his claws deeper inside her. She screamed as he did so. Inuyasha put his ears back against his head to help drown out the sound.
It took her awhile to learn to stay still, but she did it all the same. 'I have to give up, what else can I do? Let him kill me? He might do it anyway...'
She didn't want to look at Inuyasha's face but somehow she did anyway. They look on his face was regretful ness, like he didn't want to do this to her, like he wanted to be somewhere else, doing something else. She almost felt sorry for him. Almost.
In an instant his expression changed completely. From what it was, to an almost eerie anger.
"Where is it?" he whispered into her ear. "I know you have it with you, I can sense it."
Too afraid to speak, she just shook her head hoping to explain to him that she didn't know what he was talking about.
"What do you mean by that? I hope you don't mean that you're saying you don't know where the Shikon no tama is? Are you?"
The way he said that made her cringe. His voice once so tender, now filled with hate and evil.
She shook her head again.
His reaction was surprising to her. He would usually burst out screaming at her, but he just chuckled lightly at first, but then turning into more of a cackle. He suddenly stopped, his face growing serious. "Look at you. You think I'm going to hurt you, don't you?" he paused for a moment to let her answer. She didn't make a sound. "Well you're right." He swiftly took his hand and dug it into her stomach. Kagome coughed up some blood and moaned.
Inuyasha chuckled once more.
"This time, in all seriousness, where did you hide the Shikon no tama?"
She started to cry. 'Kami, just kill me now.'
Inuyasha looked at her crying form for a couple of minutes. He was still; accept for his ears which flicked in several directions, as if trying to hear something from a far distance. After a few moments, he pondered something, got up, and left.
Kagome was left there, bleeding until she fainted.
When she woke up she was still on the forest floor. Her wounds had stopped bleeding. She got up and moved toward the well, ignoring the pain that she felt. It was nothing compared to what she was feeling emotionally.
She didn't know how she did it, but she made it to the well, considering she was lost in the forest. In fact she didn't even remember coming to the well.
She sat on top of the well for a few minutes, reflecting on all that happened in the past few days. 'I wonder what happened to Kikyo, I wonder if Inuyasha is even being cursed by her. For all I know they could be in it together to get the dam jewel. It doesn't really matter anymore. I'm just going to go home and kill myself anyhow.' She chuckled at the thought. She wouldn't do something so drastic.
She jumped into the well, she jumped out of the well. She boarded it and went inside. It was still night, or rather very early in the morning. The more she thought about it, the more welcoming the idea of death was. So much to the point that she was actually serious when she said she was going to kill herself. She couldn't take the pain anymore, so she would just get rid of it the only way she knew how to.
She would wait until morning though, if she tried to do it tonight she might screw it up. Instead she would go to bed.
'Do I really want to go through with this? Yes. I really want to. There is nothing left for me to live for. This pain is unbearable, and no matter how much I want it to, it will never go away. I just want to forget Inuyasha, even if I did have some good times, the bad times out rule them.
She got under her covers and went into a dreamless sleep.
In the morning Kagome woke up to no noise, no commotion, nothing. Not a thought raced through her mind as she made her way to the kitchen.
It was still early, so no one was up yet. Kagome looked at the clock, it said 4:55. 'Good that gives me some time,' she would still have to do it soon or someone would catch her and she couldn't have that happen.
She thought about coming down later and do it right in front of their faces, but she wasn't that heartless, to make her family watch her kill herself.
She took a post-it note and a pencil from the kitchen drawer. She didn't have many words to tell her family. Instead of telling them why she did it, all she put was: 'I'm sorry, but I had to.'
She left the note on the fridge, and walked over to the knife rack. She pulled out a medium sized blade and held it over her wrist. She kept in that position for who knows how long. She was standing there, wondering if it would hurt or not. 'Have I finally lost it?'
"Get over it," she heard herself say.
She lowered the blade slightly, just barely enough to touch her skin. She braced incase there would be pain, and then quickly sliced her wrist.
Everything after that happened in a dreamlike slow-motion state.
"KAGOME!!!!" she heard her mother scream her name. Kagome turned her head to see her mom standing there dressed in her blue robe. She dropped the newspaper in her hand letting it land on the floor.
Kagome looked away from mother and looked at her wrist. 'Not deep enough,' was all she thought before she collapsed to floor.
Mrs. Higurashi rushed over to her daughter. She was still conscious, but silently weeping and whispering "it hurts." Her mother held her for a few moments, then gently set her down and made her way to the phone to call an ambulance.

Sorry for the short chapter.
Wow! What a cliffy!
Isn't my story twisted?
If you're confused, that's okay because it will all come together in later chapters.
REVIEW!!
Au revoir!
