Disclaimer:I do not own Inuyasha but Rumiko Takahashi does!!
this is through Kagome's POV all the way
I had ran. I never had ran away from something before. Typical Kagome can stand up to anything.....but not this. Why would he betray me? I never did anything to him. Maybe he really does hate me that much to hurt me like that. I couldn't just stand there and watch. I had to get away...but my legs wouldn't move. So I stood there and watched. They were at the peak of hugging until Kikyo brought out a dagger from her sleeve.
She was gonna hurt Inuyasha. Kikyo had almost brought it down to slash his back when....when he brought her into a tight embrace. I couldn't believe my eyes. He was hugging her when she was about to hurt him. Maybe I am just a jewel detector to him. I knew in the end he would choose her. He loved her that much. Sometimes I wonder if I'm just getting in his way. It seems like it to me.
" Inuyasha , promise me after this quest , you would come to hell with me forever. " Kikyo had said. " Kikyo, I...." Inuyasha mumbled. " Inuyasha we will settle this next time we meet.. till then.." Kikyo said while flying off with her soul catchers. I had taken a step back when a twig snapped.
" Who's there? Come out! " Inuyasha yelled while putting his hand on his hilt ready to take Tetsusaiga out. I had no choice then so I stepped out. " Kagome...."
I couldn't take it anymore so I ran. Tears by now are streaming down my face. I had heard him call my name again and again but I chose to ignore his calls. I just kept on running. Running away from him and everything that has to do with him. If he wants to be with Kikyo fine. If he wants to go with her fine. As long as he's happy then I'm fine with that. I love him that much to let him go with another. I was almost out of Inuyasha's forest when I tripped and fell. I must have gotten a little injury from the fell but I didn't care. I just laid there crying.
What luck I have. It had started to rain. I didn't care. I just laid there waiting to die or a demon to come up to me and kill me right then and there. As long as he is not here and I will be fine. I guess it had been at least two hours. I decided as of now I am going to go back to my time and staying there forever and never coming back. I have to return the jewel shards to them because they need them more than I do. But...but how? I can't just go up to them and say ' Well I am going home and never coming back and here are the jewel shards. It was nice knowing you all! bye ' Pathetic. As I started to stand up I heard something moving in the bushes.
" Come out! I know your there! " I yelled at whatever was in the bushes. I thought it was a demon or something but it wasn't. It was Kikyo. She came out with a bow and a quiver of arrows. Why is she even here? Is she going to kill me? I hope so...
" Why hello my reincarnation. How are you? Well I don't need to ask seeing I will for fill my job in killing you on the spot." Kikyo casually said. " You're going t..t..to kill me? But why? " ' Oh well Kagome , just let her kill you..you have no meaning in this world anyways....' " Kikyo , I will agree with you. You can kill me now. I will be free from this misery.." I said as I stood there bringing my arms up. " Good choice there my reincarnation. I can kill you without a fight. "
Kikyo brought up her bow and notched an arrow ready to shoot. As I stood there , I saw her aim for my heart. This is it huh? I'm going to die today right now. I'm sorry Sango , Miroku , Shippo , Kilala , Kaede , and especially you Inuyasha for not saying good bye before this happens... I hope you guys will understand...
" Well my reincarnation I won't regret doing this. I understand I will get your soul after this. Too bad you never got to say your farewells. " she laughed. In a mere second she let go on the string. I watched as the arrow come towards me. This is the end of my life...and misery. I will miss all of you guys. Farewell.
" Kagome! Move out of the way! " I heard a rough voice yell at me. I turned around and saw Inuyasha. I forgot for a second about the arrow. From turning , it hit me in the shoulder instead of my heart. Relief washed over me. At least he didn't witness my death. If he did though I wouldn't be so happy. And people say you should die a happy death right? I turned back around to where Kikyo was once standing but she vanished. " No...I wanted to die.. "
" Kagome! " I knew who the speaker was and I didn't want to face him right now. " Kagome..." he said once more but softer this time. I didn't want to meet his gaze. If I looked into those orbs all I would see is worry. Worry that his jewel detector almost died. Worry that if I had died , this quest would be long from over. The only thing I could do is run away. Run away from everything and...him. I stood up and almost fell over. I wished I hadn't because he had to be there and catch me.
" Inuyasha let go.." I mumbled at the verge of tears. " Kagome we have to bandage your wound. " " Why? So we can continue our search for the jewels? And so your jewel detector would be fully healed too? " " No , that's not what I meant..your more tha..." That time I ripped myself from his grasp and pulled out the arrow. I ran away again with tears that had finally spilled out.
" Inuyasha just leave me alone! Nobody would care if I died! I'm sorry..." I knew he was following me then. But I kept my speed up never stopping. I made my way through the bushes and shrubs. I weaved myself from trees with little opening. I ran so hard that now I felt numb. I felt so numb that I couldn't feel the cuts I was getting from the trees. Finally I tripped over some roots of a tree. I laid there crying. I guess he had caught up with me because I had heard footsteps.
" Kagome..." I had heard him say before I fainted. I guess the numbness had gone away. I can feel some warm strong arms carrying me I think. I opened my eyes and the only thing I saw or the only color I saw was red. No please let it be a dream. I don't want to be in his arms right now. I closed my eyes tight and opened them again to see the same thing. Red. I wanted to jump out of his grasp. But I couldn't bring myself to do it. I thought pretty hard about stuff because I couldn't feel that we had stopped and he had put me in his lap. I couldn't take it anymore so I started to rise to my feet. I guess while I was out cold he had brought me back to Kaede to bandage me up. I was going to walk away when he had grabbed my wrist.
" Kagome...can I just talk with you for awhile? " he had asked me. I turned around to meet his gaze. What I saw in his eyes was worry. I knew it. And was it fear , sadness as well? No it couldn't be that. What he cares most about is Kikyo. I had just remembered that his hand was on my wrist. And he needed my answer. So I nodded. I sat down in front of him ready to hear him out. But before he started I saw hurt in his eyes. I ignored it and pushed it aside.
" Kagome....your more than a jewel detector to me. Your the first person to except me for who I am. Now I feel as if your gone for like a whole week when you're usually gone for an hour. I realized that I couldn't live without you..Kagome I love you.. and I'm sorry..will you forgive me? " I was trying to take this all in. He said he loved me and that he was sorry? What happened to my Inuyasha? Is he possessed by a demon? Wait MY Inuyasha? When did that come up? Oh well guess he's just showing his true feelings...INUYASHA IS SHOWING HIS TRUE FEELINGS?! I better give him an answer..I will tell him mine as well.
" Inuyasha..what about Kikyo? I mean I love you too. I found out my love for you since the demon spider we had faced once before. I couldn't live without you either but I thought you only loved Kikyo. I always thought that I was in the way.... " " Kagome you were never in the way ...."
I tried to take this all in but is it just a dream? I couldn't be real. I mean Inuyasha is here with me and without Kikyo in the picture. Does he actually love me? Or is it something that he HAD to say to make me stay...or even worse break my heart again.. I couldn't take it anymore. There are so many questions to be answered. What if I'm not good enough for him? I mean he has been saying stuff like: Hey wench! Kikyo would be more help if she was here. Is this actually my destiny to be with Inuyasha? Or is it Kikyo's?
