The next day was one of the saddest they have ever experienced.Sango had insisted that Inuyasha tell Kagome's parents what had happened.
"They would be so worried!"she had argued.Inuyasha was nervous.Suppose they blamed him for Kagome's death?Well that wouldn't be too bad.It was his fault anyways.But,if they started to weep,Inuyasha would not be able to stand the pangs of guilt.They went through the well at noon.Inuyasha had donned a black hakama in mourning, and Sango too was in a black yukata.He noticed that she looked quite pretty in it.Sango had none of Kikyou's serenity or piety, and none of Kagome's bluntness.She had a special bit of fierceness and honesty about her.They both felt the umpleasant feeling of weightlessness, and then their feet hit the dusty ground of the well.Climbing up, they silently began to ring the doorbell.Happy shouts of:'Sis is back!'could plainly be heard through the door, which made them feel worse, if possible.30 minutes later they were in the living room of Kagome's house.The Higurashi's had wept at first, but they didn't blame Inuyasha and Sango.Instead they thanked them for telling the news.Biscuits and tea were served and the day was spent remebering Kagome.Silly things that she had done, brave things, kind things.It made all of them feel better.With a blank face, Sango handed over the body of Kagome tha was freshly clothed in Sango's own casual kimono."You could give her a better burial than we ever could"Inuyasha muttered quietly."No matter how deep you dig, the wild dogs mostly get into the grave.I dont want that happening with Kagome's body."The family even agreed to bury Miroku in a good grave.With heavy hearts,Sango and Inuyasha headed home through the well.
