WOTW- Well I've been getting recent requests to update Tangled. Well since my other little ficlets haven't been received well I figure I might as well try to do something with this story. Now I warn you… I haven't been writing lately so I'm a little rusty. That and since I haven't worked on this story for foreverness… Well hell there's new songs!

Disclaimer- Shoot me now. Just shoot me. You morons…

A host of stars began to be veiled by oncoming dark clouds. Rain brushed over the area. A chilly air blew from the west. Lights on in neighbors' houses shut off. Locals let the soft patting of rain on houses lull them into a deep soft sleep.

Meanwhile at the house of a demon, his fiancé, and his little brother trouble was about. Outside on the cold pavement a girl and a boy lay amongst gathering puddles.

The boy seemed peaceful, sleep like. The girl to had let her eyes fall shut. Streaks stained her cheek and a frown graced her soft lips. She was curled against the side of the boy.

Any onlooker would see two teens asleep in the rain. Anyone who knew the story would see a broken girl resting uneasily by a boy for whom all hope had been lost. Both would take a few shallow breaths and writhe in the rain beating down.

A streak of sour light played across the velvet sky bringing with it a clash of thunder. The girl awoke.

"InuYasha", Kagome called shaking him. "Please don't be dead." She shook him lightly. "InuYasha." Another small tear fell from her eye falling to the pavement among the rain drops. And yet of all the cold liquid surrounding the pair that single tear was the iciest.

The boy took a shallow breath cracking a pair of amber eyes in the night. "Kagome", he breathed staring towards the sky.

The girl positioned her face above his so he could see her. "Are you alive?"

He nodded slightly. "Dunno for how long." His words slurred together incoherently.

"A long time."

He shook his head. "Please stay with me."

Kagome nodded her head vigorously. "Always."

The boy took another breath and fell asleep again.

Kagome took his hand in hers. Rain fell still from the sky as she herself decided to sleep.

Slowly the rain began to let up. The night sky faded into the orange pink glow of morning. The golden sun over took the sky.

Kagome opened her eyes against the glaring sun. "Inuyasha wake up", she said siting up rubbing her eyes. She stared at his face. "Time to wake up sleepy head", she repeated tapping his head. "Woohoo. Anyone home?" She knocked on his head. Nothing. She took his hand in her own. It was cold.

Kagome wrapped a set of two shaking fingers around his wrist to feel for a pulse. The familiar rhythmic pressure under the skin was gone. The blood stayed cold in his veins through a seemingly endless procession of family, funerals, hearses, therapists, and sympathetic yet self- obsessed friends.

A few years passed as Kagome steadily righted herself. On this night she stepped onto a stage of an arena. The show was sold out. She took her guitar and sat on a stool. Slowly words formed on her lips as she sang to her crowd.

At times life seems wicked

And I just can't see the light

A silver lining sometimes isn't enough

To make some wrongs seem right

Whatever life brings

I've been through everything

And now I'm on my knees again

But I know I must go on

Although I hurt I must be strong

Beside inside I know

That many feel this way

Children don't stop dancing

Believe you can fly

away… away

At times life's unfair

And you know it's plain to see

Hey God I know

I'm just a dot in this world

Have you forgot about me?

Whatever life brings

I've been through everything

And now I'm on my knees again

But I know I must go on

Although I hurt I must be strong

Cause inside I know that

Many feel this way

Children don't stop dancing

Believe you can fly

Away… away

Am I hiding in the shadows?

Forget the pain and

Forget the sorrows

But I know I must go on

Although I hurt I must strong

Cause inside I know that

Many feel this way

Children don't stop dancing

Believe you can fly

Away… away

Am I hiding in the shadows?

Are we hiding in the shadows?

As she sang the song and strummed the chords she could think of only one person… her lost love Inuyasha. She remembered his words to her. "Become famous. Share your legacy with the world through your music." She was doing this now. And sharing his story to. Her music became stories of a broken girl and a confused boy. Tales of tragedy.

"I've done what you told me to", she whispered to the air around her one night. "InuYasha I did what you told me to. I got right. I became a good little christian girl. When can I see you again?"

Hello my friend we meet again

It's been a while where should we begin… feels like forever

Within my heart are memories

Of perfect love you gave to me

I remember

When you are with me

I'm free… I'm careless… I believe

Above all the others we'll fly

This brings tears to my eyes

My sacrifice

We've seen our share of ups and downs

How quickly life can turn around in an instant

It feels so good to reunite

Within yourself and within your mind

Let's find peace there

When you are with me

I'm free… I'm careless… I believe

Above all the others we'll fly

This brings tears to my eyes

My sacrifice

I just want to say hello again

Kagome thought once more of Inuyasha mindlessly writing words on a page.

Years passed and Kagome waited for the die she would die and rejoin Inuyasha. She would wait and not bring her early demise. Inuyasha would want her to continue to "share her gift with the world". But always one song would bond Inuyasha and Kagome through her life. A song he wrote and she now sang calling him to help her.

Please come now I think I'm falling

I'm holding on to all I think is safe

It seems I found the road to nowhere

And I'm trying to escape

I yelled back when I heard thunder

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say,

Let me say

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge

And I'm thinking

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down

'It was', she would think remembering the fall that stole him from her.

I'm looking down now that it's over

Reflecting on all of my mistakes

I thought I found the road to somewhere

Somewhere in His grace

I cried out heaven save me

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say

Let me say

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge

And I'm thinking

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down

Sad eyes follow me

But I still believe there's

Something left for me

So please come stay with me

Cause I still believe

There's something left for you and me

For you and me

For you and me

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge

And I'm thinking…

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge

And I'm thinking

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down

She sang it loudest and only to herself just to bring his soul closer back to her. Only to recapture the memory… He would always live through the broken girl who would share him with the world. And always they would stay tangled in her heart.

WOTW- Oh wow. Okay wasn't expecting that myself… I think I did a pretty darn good job myself. I mean okay 3 songs is a little excessive but I think they fit… sort of. Okay so those are all Creed songs. Old school yes but I still like them so bite me. Let's see… I used Don't Stop Dancing, One Last Breath, and My Sacrifice.

Well I do believe I updated as you all asked, ended it as I had planned, used my grimness in a time of happy, made myself cry, used three songs, and did a decent job of mixing this all into one final chapter. That's right… Tangled is over. Erm… THE END.

So if you love me at all you will hit that button. Thanks! Love y'all! And arigato for watching me transition myself in this story whose chapters really reflect events in my life at that time. Well hit the button I'll shut up. Bye! 3
