Chapter Fourteen
When thought came to Inuyasha, he didn't waste much time getting to where he wanted to go. It was worst then what he wanted and thought to be true. As if the death of someone wasn't enough, they would suffer before leaving.
He walked quickly over to some piles of building rock. As he thought, Rina was pinned under them.
"Oh Rina." He quietly said, bending down to get a better look.
Her eyes opened slowly. They were glazed over. "It's...not..as bad...as it...looks." Her breathing was heavy and pained.
He looked at her, desperation in his eyes. "I shouldn't...have left you Rina."
She smiled and closed her eyes. "It's...not...your..fault."
He fervently pushed all the debri off of Rina. He pulled her close to him.
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 Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?
As much as he hated it, there were tears in his eyes. "I'm so sorry." He said to her, holding her head and looking at her torn and broken body.
Her eyes opened again. "Nothing to...be sorry..about. Besides...I can't feel any pain." She glanced over to her wounded shoulder from before, where the first posion arrow hit. She put a hand on his face, rubbing his cheek softly. "Don't be...worried. Remember...I've been...in more worse..situations." She grunted from the rib pain.
Holding my last breathe Safe inside myself Are all my thoughts of you Sweet raptured light it ends here tonight
"But Rina..." He was truly fearful. "I promised to come for you, to protect you."
"And you...have. I'm...grateful." A tear escaped both their eyes. She began to cough roughly. She bent some in pain.
"I'm taking you back to the camp. We can figure something out there."
But Rina shook her head no. "Inuyasha...it's over. No..one...won..just alot..of hurt and pain."
He didn't want to listen to her about how it was ending. Picking her up gently he moved quickly back to the camping area.
I'll miss the winter A world of fragile things Look for me in the white forest Hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
I know you hear me I can taste it in your tears
It was dark, when the group ate, worked on their wounds and tryed to fall asleep.
Inuyasha watched Rina for most of the night. He notice that her breathing was decreasing slowly. He knew that the rocks had crumbled her and she could feel much..just the pain in the ribs and other areas.
Holding my last breathe Safe inside myself Are all my thoughts of you Sweet raptured light it ends here tonight
Sometime in the night Kagome had awaken to find Inuyash and Rina missing. Shippo was sitting up next to Kilala sniffling. She looked down realizing what may have happened.
Closing your eyes to disappear You pray your dreams will leave you here But still you wake and know the truth No one's there
Inuyasha walked out to the area where everything was dead from before. The area where he and Rina when the first night she got attacked. Things were different this time though. The area was growing with grasses and greens. Also he held his friend in his arms.
She stopped speaking a while ago so he did the talking, it helped with the pain. "Where we met, said goodbye, met again, and now saying goodbye for the last time." He whispered.
Rina's breathing had become sacarce. He knew that this was there final hour together. He kissed her on the forehead and sat on a rock. They watched a memorizing sunrise and when a small gust of wind blew, Inuyasha knew that it was over. A beautiful site, to a sadden ending.
He did nothing. Just stayed there for the morning, holding his best friend in his arms. He knew she wasn't there, but her presence was and he stayed until the feeling was gone.
Say goodnight Don't be afraid Calling me calling me as you fade to black.
