Chapter 5: Secrets Tell Lies

(Last time Inuyasha punched Fuyuki and is now trying to find out whats wrong with Kagome...just so ya know!)

"Inuyasha...I...can't"

Kagome clenched tigher to his shirt hoping it would just end and she wouldn't have to tell about it. But no, Inuyasha wasn't about to ignore the fact he found Kagome in that situation. He needed answers!

He slightly pulled her back to look at her, "Kagome, your step dad was just about to--and--you have to tell me!"

Kagome shook her head and sighed, "I don't want to worry you. I'll be fine. I just...have to make sure I'm not at home alone with him that's all. I'll go to Sango's or something if he's the only one left. I promise."

Failure. Inuyasha decided not to make her mad by pushing at it so he helped her up and looked away, "Um...You might wanna go fix your-uh-clothes."

Blushing, Kagome silently left for her room. Fuyuki slowly regained consciousness, startling Inuyasha. 'They usually stay out for at least three hours...' he shrugged away his thoughts and prepared to knock out the one who'd done such wrong.

"Boy, you'll be sorry for that"

"I highly doubt it"

"You won't doubt it much longer, kid"

"Don't call me kid!"

Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and flexed his claws. Fuyuki smirked, "Ah, I see you have demon in you...well in that case..." Fuyuki suddenly transformed to a more demon-like form, claws, fangs, and two brown ears, resembling that of a coyote's(eh, couldnt think of anything). Inuyasha was slightly surprised, but he shrugged, 'More fun to beat up a demon anyway'

Fuyuki slashed at Inuyasha who dodged just barely, 'Damn he's fast...' Inuyasha thought as he proceeded to maintain the defensive. Kagome could hear the racket in the hallway and swung the door open, "Inuyasha! Fuyuki leave him alone!!"

She had known he was demon, more of a reason she didn't like being around him. She wasn't comfortable around this demon. Inuyasha became distracted by Kagome's calls and turned his head, giving Fuyuki the chance to send him flying into the next room.

"INUYASHA!!"

Hold on to me love

You know I can't stay long

All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid

Kagome leaped forward and pushed Inuyasha to the ground, "FUYUKI STOP!!"

Inuyasha could only watch as Fuyuki swung his arm and slammed her in the stomach. He dug his claws in and she fell to the ground.

Fuyuki raised an eyebrow, "Pathetic. You wasted your life for a mutt"

Can you hear me?

Can you feel me in your arms?

Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and his eyes flashed red. In a blink of an eye, blood spilled out of Fuyuki, and he was dead.

Holding my last breath

Safe inside myself

Are all my thoughts of you

Sweet rapture and life

It ends here tonight

Inuyasha returned to normal and flew to Kagome's side. He lifted her up and held her like a child in his arms, "K-Kagome?"

Tears filled his eyes as she slowly opened her own. She sighed, "I'm so sorry"

"Why would you be sorry?"

"You wasted your time coming here..."

I'll miss the winter

A world of fragile things

Look for me and know I was hiding in a hollow tree

Inuyasha shook his head, "It's never a waste."

"Its over now though...For me"

"Don't say that Kagome!"

I know you hear me

I can taste it in your tears

Holding my last breath

Safe inside myself

Are all my thoughts of you

Sweet rapture and life

It ends here tonight

Kagome weakly smiled, "I love you"

She closed her eyes and fell limp in his embrace. He shook violently and held back the tears stinging his eyes, "Kagome!"

Losing your eyes to disappear

You pray your dreams will lead you here

But still you wait and know the truth

No one's there

Say goodnight

Don't be afraid

Silence fell over the room as the clock ticked, without sound.

Holding me

As you fade tonight

Say goodnight

Don't be afraid

Holding me,holding me

Inuyasha refused to believe it, "You won't die!! Kagome you can't just leave me!"

Sweet rapture and life

It ends here tonight

Holding my last breath

He heard her last words ring in his head, 'I love you...' "Kagome you didn't let me say I love you too!"

Safe inside myself

Are all my thoughts of you

"I won't let you go...never!"

Song inspired it. Review...who knows what I'll do now mwahah
