Chapter 2

Gone Again

InuYasha sat in his tree, tears threatening to fall once again as he thought of old times.

Damnit it! This crying shit has got to stop!

But he couldn't stop it and he knew that. The tears continued to fall and the fight kept replaying itself in his mind.

Kagome was to be burned a week from yesterday. She would be burned, as was her mother's wish, and he ashes were to be buried near the bone eaters well. At first she was to be buried next to the God tree but InuYasha had refused that idea. He would never be able to sit in the tree again if they put her there. Until then, she was in another room of Kaede's hut with a hired monk watching so that her soul would not be stolen.

After Kagome died, InuYasha had paid no attention to Kikyo and that pissed her off to no end. She thought for sure that he would go to her for consolation but instead he went to that monk. He would rather go to some monk with a hell hole in his hand than to his only love?

After spending the night in Kaede's hut, Kikyo left early the next morning and headed off toward a demon's castle. Her plan was not going as it should.

"Kikyo, so you are alive?" Naraku said in his deep creepy voice.

"Naraku, the plain is failing," Kikyo replied shortly.

"What do you mean my dear Kikyo? Kagome is dead. Isn't that what you wanted?"

"Yes, but InuYasha will still not admit his love for me!" Kikyo cried angrily. She walked over to the man and sat next to him. Naraku set his arm around Kikyo as she rested her head on his shoulder.

"Once InuYasha declares his love for me, I can kill him and then give my heart to you Naraku," Kikyo whispered, closing her eyes and relaxing against the man she loved. Naraku kissed the top of Kikyo's head and smiled to himself.

"Don't you worry. InuYasha will say it sooner or later. I can wait a little longer."

"InuYasha..." Kikyo said softly as she approached the God tree. High up in the branches was the red-suited hanyou looking off into the distance.

"InuYasha," Kikyo said again. Did he truly not hear her or was he just ignoring her? Whatever the reason, Kikyo never found out as InuYasha turned his head to her.

An expression that Kikyo had never seen before played across his face. He looked like he had died or something. Kikyo instantly knew that when Kagome died, InuYasha's heart and soul had followed.

"Kikyo... what are you doing here?" InuYasha asked in atone that somehow hurt her.

She lowered her head, "I'm leaving," she said solemnly.

InuYasha jumped from his branch and landed at the foot pf the tree; several feet away from Kikyo.

"Since Kagome died, half of my soul went on to heaven. The half I contain here, inside me, needs to move on. My soul must join together again and be one. So, I must leave."

InuYasha was silent. Why did he not feel bad about Kikyo leaving? It had killed him when Kagome had left but why not now when the true owner of her soul was leaving him again?

"InuYasha," Kikyo said, breaking the silence and looking at up, "I just want to hear one thing from you before I go."

"What's that?" InuYasha asked, completely confused at what she was asking of him.

"InuYasha..." Kikyo murmured, a bit hurt at the fact that he did not understand her need, "Please... tell me... tell me that you love me."

InuYasha was shocked. He didn't know what to say. Could he tell her he loved her after everything Kagome had shown him? Could he tell her he loved her when his true love had died by her arrow?

"Please InuYasha," Kikyo pleaded, beginning to float above the ground, "I need to hear you say it."

But InuYasha remained silent.

He doesn't love me. He doesn't love me. He only loves that bitch Kagome!!!

Enraged, Kikyo sent forth a large stream of energy, smashing right into InuYasha, slamming him into the tree that was behind him. InuYasha heard several snaps and sharp pain in his chest and he knew that if not one, several of his ribs had broken.

InuYasha glanced up to see a face he hadn't seen in fifty years.

Kikyo's anger not only framed her face but InuYasha could feel the anger radiating off of her.

"You shall pay for this InuYasha!" Kikyo screamed before a bright white light consumed her and she disappeared, soul, body, and all.

InuYasha stood against the tree, more surprised then sad. As he turned and headed off to Kaede's village to tell her the news about her sister, one thing kept nagging him in the very back of his head.

If Kikyo's soul had gone on to join with Kagome's, why had her clay body disappeared too?

The End of Chapter 1 of Together Forever by Sakura G.

A/N: Okay so I hoped you guys enjoyed that. I enjoyed skipping the Social Studies to write it. ;)

To fit my story, I'm gonna change something from the manga and eppies. For my story, Kagome's soul (or Kikyo's soul) was split in two when the witch created the clay body of Kikyo. So Kagome has half and Kikyo has the other. Got it? Good.

Oh and everything I take from like flashbacks and names are from the manga. I own volumes 1, 8, and 14-18 and I take everything from there. There is a difference in the eppies and in the manga so I just wanted to make sure you guys were clear.

¡No olvídese! ¡Ningunos cumplidos, ningunos capítulos!

¡Hasta el sábado!
