Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or the song, "At the Beginning".

Thanks to everyone who reviewed, but most all of, thanks to Riku's Heartless Angel since that was my 200th reviewer! I want to give a special shout out to my cousin, Jin. She helped me a lot, but not without annoying me to death. Well, chapter 11 was sad, but uh...I'll change that. . I recommend you to listen to "At the Beginning" when you're reading this fanfic. It's a good song too. I love it. . On with the story.

And life is a road and I wanna keep going

Love is a river I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning

I'll be there when the storm is through

In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you
-"At the Beginning" by Richard Marx and Donna Lewis


Sakura Ch. 12: With You

Kagome climbed out of the well and ran out and into her house. She ran up stairs to her room, not even noticing her little brother jumping up and down at her arrival. Kagome entered her room and locked the door and slid down to the floor. She didn't cry much, but instead went into deep thinking.

Inuyasha stood there, just looking at the place where Kagome had been and just thinking why he had been such an idiot. Inuyasha made an angry face and a fist. He ran in the forest while punching and chopping down trees to release the anger. After all that was done, he went to sit in the God Tree and also went into deep thinking.

(If you can, you should download "At the Beginning")

We were strangers starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through
Now here we are and I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you

Kagome sat on the floor crying softly to her-self, but soon her tears turned into sobs. '...Stupid Inuyasha...' Kagome thought. She couldn't understand why Inuyasha had to be so...brainless. Inuyasha decided to believe Kikyo, but not her? Now that's what hurt Kagome. Why was she staying with Inuyasha when all he does is hurt her? ...
Kagome knew the answer to that without hesitation.

No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start

On the other side, Inuyasha still sat on a branch of the God Tree, still thinking about one person. '...Kagome...' was the only thing Inuyasha was thinking about. '...What should I do...? I don't think Kikyo would do something like that ... but ... then...Kagome wouldn't lie...' Inuyasha let out a frustrated sigh. '...I wonder what Kagome is doing...'

And Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

Kagome was now sitting on her bed while staring out her window and up at the bright moon. '...hmm...I wonder what Inuyasha's up to right now...' Kagome thought. Her tears and sobs had stopped a while ago now, but she was still in deep thinking, deep thinking on what she should do next. She was still a bit mad at Inuyasha, but the main emotion was sad, she was mostly sad. Kagome gave into a deep sigh and fell backwards on her bed and closed her eyes.

We were strangers on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you

Inuyasha looked up at the moon and Kagome's cheerful face appeared. He smiled and closed his eyes...his mind filled with only Kagome. '...maybe...I should go and apologize...' Inuyasha thought.

And Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you


Kagome thought about taking a nap and decided it would be the best thing to do so she got into a more comfortable position, and sleep took over her.

Knew there was somebody somewhere
Like a light in the dark
Now I know that dreams will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing's gonna tear us apart

Inuyasha thought it was too late to go and see Kagome so he decided to stay on his branch and...just think about Kagome.

And Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

Kagome awoke about an hour later and lay on her bed, staring at her ceiling. Her thoughts were only on one person; Inuyasha. She felt completely hurt, but knew that the best thing to do was to go back. She wanted to go back...to see Inuyasha's face, of course. No matter what happened, she knew she wanted to be by his side, but sometimes it hurt too much to even bear. If she did go back, it would be like some other times before. She would go back and act like nothing happened. Even if he didn't believe her, she would she be there. Kagome let a tear escape and thought, '...I'll go back tomorrow...' She closed her eyes and thought about the memories of her and Inuyasha.
She smiled.

Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Starting out on a journey
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning...

"...With you, Inuyasha..."

Ok, what do you guys think? Uh....this chapter seems like it doesn't have a point, right? Well, it does. I think it's like...an 'Inuyasha and Kagome moment'. I think I did alright. Please review. The moment we have (well, not everyone) all been waiting for is almost coming. KIKYO SHALL DIE VERY SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! Ok, enough of that. My cousin and I thought of a great way to make Kikyo die. It is slow, painful and just...well, you'll gonna have to review for the chapter to come faster. That's the only way. . C ya.
