Author's Note: Hello everyone! Sad? There is only one more chapter after this SO YOU MUST VOTE! If you don't vote, I shall cry! TT I'm KIDDING! If you don't vote, I'll just go with the Inuyasha story. Please tell your friends to read this story and review, okay? Because I really want at least 80 reviews by the end! It's my goal! Okay. On to the second last chapter.
Chapter 12- The Final DayThe next day would be the last day of the surviving people who still had their stones. Surprisingly, Inuyasha's red stone still had not broken.
"This is bad," Miroku said seriously looking into the night, "if Inuyasha's stone does not break very soon, he will die!"
"No, he won't die! He's to hardcore to die!" Kagome yelled with her smooth voice cracking. She kept back her tears not wanting anyone else to see her cry and she wanted to keep up her ability to not always look so soft hearted.
Sango rubbed Kagome's back slowly knowing how much Kagome loved Inuyasha. Suddenly, Inuyasha leapt into the room quietly knowing that everyone had just been talking about him.
"Inuyasha, are you not worried that your stone will not break?" asked Miroku looking in Inuyasha's eyes.
"Why are you staring at me like that? I-I'm definitely not worried! Stupid question to ask Miroku!" Inuyasha yelled half stuttering and hiding his feelings.
Kagome stepped up to him angrily and screamed, "YOU STUPID JERK! YOU HAVE NO FEELINGS FOR ANYTHING, DO YOU? INUYASHA, YOU'RE TOO HARD HEADED TO EVEN TELL US SOMETHING REAL!"
Everyone sat on the wooden floor staring at Kagome. She stormed out, her face cherry red from anger. Inuyasha broke the awkward silence and sighed.
"I had better go find her I guess," Inuyasha said mumbling as he stepped through the door. He left and Shippo followed out the door after him.
Miroku raised his eyebrow thoughtfully and turned to Sango. He looked as if he were thinking about something very carefully.
"Um… Miroku?" Sango waved her hand in front of his nerve breaking face.
"Uh… Sango," Miroku's eyebrow raised even higher then before as he talked in a—well, rather disturbing voice and a thoughtful smile, "now that we're alone…"
Sango quickly, and roughly slapped Miroku on the right side of his perfect face. Steam practically was coming out of her head.
"YOU SICK PERVERT!" Sango screamed as Miroku's smile became bigger and it also became more perverted. She slapped him over and over again and his –ahem- smile became wider and wider every time she slapped him.
Inuyasha heard Sango screaming at the top of her lungs as he left the tiny home. 'I wonder what's happening in there…' Inuyasha thought trying to focus on finding Kagome.
"Inuyasha! Wait for me!" Shippo called as he pounced on to Inuyasha's shoulder.
"Shippo!" he shouted when he saw the little fox jump happily onto his arm. "No! You can't come! Finding Kagome is for me and only me!" He desperately pulled Shippo off his arm and placed him; unlike he usually did, on the dirt ground.
"INUYASHA!" screamed Shippo starting to cry. "I WANT TO GO TOO!"
"Shippo, I need to do this on my own," he told Shippo calmly. Shippo tears halted and he watched Inuyasha pounce into the deep forest (Fukai Mori! Tee hee!). Never had Inuyasha sounded that serious, ever.
Shippo started crying again and sobbed out, "INUYASHA'S GOING TO DIE!"
'Aw great,' Inuyasha's thoughts wandered, 'when I find Kagome, she's going to be super pissed… Gosh…' He landed in the middle of the lush forest with the deep pine scent all around him. The strongest scent though, was behind that dark chocolate coloured tree. He heard a sob burst out of the scent as he silently walked around the tree. Inuyasha looked behind the pine and saw one messy looking girl. Her eyes red, her hair tangled, her face soaked with the salty water of her tears.
"Kagome?" he asked curiously.
She looked up at him as the tears from her eyes rolled down her blush face. Kagome stared at him not wanting him to see her like this.
"I-I…"
He pulled her into his arms wrapping them securely around her, keeping her safe in the midnight moonlight. Inuyasha stroked her back softly letting Kagome's tears drop onto his kimono. A tear fell swiftly on his shoulder dissolving into the cloth.
"Shh," he shushed Kagome calming her strong sobs, "it's all right. I'll be fine."
"I-Inuyasha… I'm sorry, I c-can't e-even help y-you…" she blurted out sobbing at the horrible thought.
"It's all right Kagome," he told her again, "I promise it will all get better."
She slightly nodded not really believing him and dug her face into his chest. Kagome couldn't bear to look at his helpless looking face. She saw right through his lies. Inuyasha was also worried. His life was in jeopardy. Who wouldn't be totally scared right then?
"Kagome, it looks like you don't believe me," he said still stroking her back. "Don't you believe that I can do this?"
This time she nodded for real. Of course she believed in him! She trusted him a lot but was still frightened about this.
She got up and shouted, "Oh Inuyasha! I don't want you to die! I don't want to live in a world without you! I don't even want to live without you! You're everything I live for Inuyasha!"
He stared blankly in silence at her sudden outburst. He looked at her with his innocent eyes that followed hers.
"Kagome, life isn't a game. If it is, I've just scored a million points. But it isn't. It's for real."
He pounced onto Kagome and gave her a deep kiss, full of emotion. It was his turn to kiss her and tell her what she meant to him. Inuyasha's kiss showed her how much he cared about her and how much he loved her. It was a kiss of truth. The moment his lips pulled away from Kagome's, Inuyasha's stone shattered. The moment of truth came.
