Chapter Five: Let It Burn

Inuyasha woke up bright and early in the morning to fulfill his goal of seeing Sabre and talking to him. Kagome had purified his jewel shard, even though she was unconscious...Inuyasha smiled. Her touch was magical. Then he shook his head, and washed his face in a nearby river. At that he called Kirara to him, and jumped on her. They flew towards the direction in which he went before with Kagome looking for the jewel shards. He sighed heavily, but kept his eyes pealed for the mountain. When he felt Kirara descending he looked down, to see Sabre looking up at him, with an annoyed expression. When Inuyasha leaped off Kirara and walked over to his best friend. "What are you doing here, Kid?" he asked, his arms crossed across his chest. Inuyasha sweat dropped. "I thought you forgot the nickname...even though we're THE SAME AGE!" he snapped. Sabre rolled his eyes. "Just because you told Kagome to go away permenantly doesn't mean you have to bite my head off." Inuyasha froze to the spot. "How'd you know?" Sabre smirked. "You forgot that thanks to my dead anscestors and my father I know how to see the past, present, and future, including reading minds?" Inuyasha sweat dropped again. "Great. Anyways, I came here for-" Sabre finished his sentance sitting cross-legged on a rock. "Advice." Inuyasha began to twitch. "Can...you...stop...-?" He began, but Sabre annoyed him once again. "No." Inuyasha felt like he was going to kill him. Sabre rolled his eyes. "Shut up and listen." Inuyasha calmed down.

"Okay, do you want Kagome to get hurt?"

"No."

"Good. Do you love her?"

"Yes."

"Do you want her back?"

"Uh...yes and no."

"Why not?"

"Because there's too much danger around here and I'll kill myself if she gets hurt."

"So you want my advice?"

Inuyasha fell over twitching. Then got up again. "IF YOU DON'T KNOW THEN WHY'D YOU ASK ME ALL THOSE QUESTIONS????" Sabre remained calm. "Just answer." Inuyasha grumbled then muttered. "Yes." Sabre nodded. "Okay. Then my advice...let it burn." Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, while Sabre opened his eyes. "It's an expression I picked up. Ever since my sister died in the palace fire...I hate being prince...anyways, I figured that you have to burn all the bad stuff in your soul and just let go." With a flick of a finger there was some strange music ringing in Inuyasha's ears. He looked around...that was the tune that Kagome listened on her CD player some times! Sabre began for Inuyasha...both were privately great singers.

Sabre: "I don't understand why
See it's burning me to hold onto this
I know this is something I gotta do
But that don't mean I want to"

Then Inuyasha realized what he was going at, so he closed his eyes and through the words of the song he tried to make himself feel better. So he started singing.

Inuyasha: "What I'm trying to say is that I-love-you I just
I feel like this is coming to an end
And its better for me to let it go now than hold on and hurt you
I gotta let it burn "

It's gonna burn for me to say this
But it's comin from my heart
It's been a long time coming
But we done been fell apart
Really wanna work this out
But I don't think you're gonna change
I do but you don't
Think it's best we go our separate ways
Tell me why I should stay in this relationship
When I'm hurting baby, I ain't happy baby
Plus theres so many other things I gotta deal with
I think that you should let it burn

[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

Then he began to think of Kikyo...he shuddered. He couldn't convince himself anymore, so he began singing negative words.

Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to
Got somebody here but I want you
Cause the feelin ain't the same by myself
Callin' her your name
Ladies tell me do you understand?
Now all my fellas do you feel my pain?
It's the way I feel
I know I made a mistake
Now it's too late
I know she ain't comin back
What I gotta do now
To get my shorty back
Ooo ooo ooo ooooh
Man I don't know what I'm gonna do
Without my booo
You've been gone for too long
It's been fifty-leven days, um-teen hours
Imma be burnin' till you return (let it burn)

[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn (let it burn, let it burn, you gon'learn)
Let it burn (gotta let it burn)
Gotta let it burn

Deep down you know its best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

[Bridge]
I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry (ooooh)
I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry (yeah)

[Breakdown]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Ooh ooh oooh (can ya feel me burnin'?)
Ooh ooh ooh oooh ooh oooh

So many days, so many hours
I'm still burnin' till you return

[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

Inuyasha was crying silently, no matter how hard the words of the song tried to convince him. Sabre heard what he was singing and he rolled his eyes in pain for his friend. When he finished, he placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder. Inuyasha was shaking. "Sabre...I have to see her...I can't live without her...but I don't want her to get hurt!" Inuyasha said through sobs. Sabre closed his eyes. "I know exactly what you mean." Inuyasha looked at him. "Huh?" Sabre's eyes were filled with tears when he opened them again. "I love Kayura. And yet I wish I didn't. She's being held captive by Naraku that frickin' bastard. And if I don't do what he says...the only woman I ever truly loved will be killed by that half-demon!" Inuyasha's eyes opened in shock, and they were wide. "What do you mean he's a half-demon?" Sabre smirked. "So you didn't know? He doesn't know that I know. His heart is still human. That's why he needs the Shikon No Tama. To be a full-blooded demon...with no trace of human." Inuyasha was raging. "YOU MEAN I'VE BEEN ALMOST MURDERED BY A DAMN HALF-BREED?" Sabre raised his eyebrows. "Oh yeah. I forgot. No offence to me. And you." Sabre rolled his eyes. Yes. Sabre wasn't a full panther demon. He was more of half...or he prefered mixed. How his family started was a complicated thing. Let's just say his mother was a kitsune. He had 30 brothers and sisters. 15 of them only half brothers and sisters. But all of them were roaming the world somewhere. Let's just say in his running blood there is: fire, ice, water, dragon demon blood.

Then Inuyasha realized that Sabre was half-right. He had to try and let go of the fact that he wanted Kagome with him all the time. But he won't ever stop loving her, so he said good-bye to Sabre and flew back to the Higurashi village. His heart was with Kagome. Let it Burn...But I can't. Sabre, the love I feel for her is the love you feel for Kayura. I'm going to protect her though, and then help you rescue Kayura.

Sabre watched his fly off and smirked as he found a jewel shard on the ground. "Very Convenient. Kagome...I'm going to give you something to get back to your future husband. This future-seeing thing is really helping me out." Sabre said smirking, examining the jewel fragment. "And I hope Inuyasha will try and stay away from you after you're married...or else my vision will come true and you'll end up a mother of six!" He gave out a small chuckled and chucked the jewel shard straight into Kirara's jaw, in which she caught and gave a nod of understanding of what she's supposed to do with it.

Inuyasha walked over to the wall, staring down into it's emptiness. He half expected to see Kagome jump on him in a hug. He smiled as he imagined it. He felt someone nudge him in a comforting way, and realized that it was Kirara. He petted her on her soft fur and began walking away. "Let's go Kirara. I smell chow." Kirara nodded, but then just as she was told, she chucked the jewel fragment into the Bone Eater's Well.

Sabre smiled as he felt the jewel shard fall. "Good job Kirara. Kagome...welcome back."
