Chapter 6 - Leaving You Behind
The next day, Kagome hugged the crying Shippo goodbye. Kagome made Sango promise that she would take care of the little kitsune. When she was done bidding everyone farewell, she and Inuyasha heade for the bone-eaters well. When they arrived, Kagome turned to Inuyasha.
"Well.. I guess this goodbye is for good." Kagome smiled sadly.
"Yeah, I guess it is" Inuyasha tried not to look at her. Kagome was much to precious to him, he couldn't bear to say goodbye. He knew this would happen someday. That she would be leaving him behind. He just didn't think it would be this soon.
Kagome took something out of her pocket and gave it to Inuyasha. "Here, take these jewel shards"
"Thanks for all the help Kagome"
Kagome smiled and stood in front of Inuyasha. She untied the prayer beads around his neck and put them in her pocket. "No problem"
Inuyasha glanced at her briefly and then wrapped his arms around her, and pulled her into an embrace.
Kagome sighed silently as she smelled Inuyasha's hair. Inuyasha let go of her and gave her a kiss in the cheek.
Kagome smiled. "Goodbye Inuyasha" she looked at Inuyasha for the last time and jumped into the well.
"Goodbye..... Kagome"
Inuyasha walked through the forest, his heart broken and a sad expression on his face. He stopped in front of the sacred god tree. The tree held many dear memories of times he spent with Kagome. This was where he first met her. He realized now that Kagome was different from Kikyo. Kagome had a spirit that was so full of fire. The young woman had a smile on her face that could melt any youkai's heart. Her eyes were always full of joy and she strengthened everything around her. Kagome was his strength.
Inuyasha headed to the village a moment later. He didn't want to go back to the campsite in fear of having to talk to Miroku, Sango, and worse.. .the kitsune who loved Kagome dearly..Shippo.
Arriving at the village, he headed towards Kaede's hut. He knocked on the door. Kaede came out and immediately knew something was hurting Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha?"
"Kaede....there's something wrong with me.." Inuyasha sighed.
"What is it?"
"I... I feel like I'm missing something.. Ever since Kagome left... I.."
"You're heartbroken..perhaps confused"
"I'm in love with Kagome..and now I don't have the chance to tell her. Why did I realize it just now? I knew I was feeling something for her a long time ago but I kept pushing her away, not believing my heart because I was so determined to give my life back to Kikyo and always believing she was the only one for me" Inuyasha slapped his forehead , annoyed at himself "I'm such a jerk!"
"Yes you are" Kaede offered Inuyasha a cup of tea. "But you need not blame yourself. Maybe there's a way for you to get her back."
"How?"
"If your love for her is so strong, you'll find a way" Kaede pushed him outside the door and bid him goodbye.
Inuyasha sighed. What did Kaede mean? He was walking back into the forest, when he smelled Kikyo's scent. He ran following it.
"Inuyasha'
"Kikyo," Inuyasha slumped down on the ground "Kikyo I- -"
"You love her. You love my copy. Kagome"
"Y-Yes"
"Did you tell her?"
"She's gone"
"Why didn't you tell her Inuyasha?"
"Because I owe you my life. I promised to give it to you remember?"
"I suppose so but.. I realize now that I can't control you. If you truly love her and she makes you happy..then.. I want you to be with her. In order to do that, you have to let go of me"
"How can I get her back?"
"You'll both find a way soon. Inuyasha.. I want you to avenge my life.. I'm so tired. I only wish to rest. If both your love for each other is sstrong enough.. You'll reach each other across time"
