"Inuyasha?" an exhausted Sango asked.
"Hmm?"
"Can we please stop for a minute? I am feeling a little dizzy..." Sango said and she fell backward onto Miroku, who caught her and helped her to sit on the ground. Inuyasha glared at her for being dizzy and was surprised when he wasn't blown over by Kagome. Usually when he was pushing Sango and Miroku too hard she'd sit him for it. Now he was extremely worried. He went to go sit in a tree to mull over what could have possibly happened to Kagome. After nearly 10 minutes of thinking Inuyasha's nostrils flared. A scent he hadn't had the pleasure of smelling in just over three months had just reached his nostrils. He smelled Kagome! He leapt from the tree and started running as fast as his legs would allow. Unfortunately for the hanyou, he became human midway through his dash to his love. He silently cursed the new moon, but continued running in the direction he had last smelt her. He burst through a bush that dared to stand in his way. When he reached the other side he came face to face with a sight he thought he would never get to see in his lifetime. He saw her. He took a cautious step forward, praying she wasn't an illusion. Kagome looked up from the fire she was currently staring at when she heard the bush being violently pushed aside. She was met with the sight of a man with black hair and a bright red haori staring in awe at her.
"Kagome?" the man asked, terrified that she'd disappear if he didn't react soon. She got a look of pure confusion in her eyes and stood up cautiously. Inuyasha took a step forward, causing her to step back. He had never seen her scared of him like that.
"Who are you?" She asked, the fear coming off of her in waves. Inuyasha took a shocked step backwards as realisation hit him. She didn't know who he was!
"Kagome? Don't you remember me? Inuyasha?" He asked calmly, trying not to upset her. Kagome stared at him with doe-eyes.
"Inuyasha?" She asked quietly. He nodded in response.
"Do you love me?" she asked suddenly, causing Inuyasha to raise an eyebrow. He was expecting to be tackled in a hug, not to be asked if he loved her.
"Of course!" Inuyasha assured her, with a cautious step forward. Kagome didn't step back this time, but stayed rooted in place, with wide eyes.
"Kikyo said I'd recognize you..." Kagome said accusingly, indicating her lack of trust for the now human man before her. Inuyasha's violet eyes softened and he looked to where Kikyo slept, confused as to why she was with Kagome.
"It's me..." Inuyasha tried to explain to her, to no avail. He started walking slowly towards her, in the hopes of being able to touch her and figure out if she was really there, or if his mind was playing tricks on him. Kagome was startled at his slow, but still startling movements. She yelped and skirted around the fire, only to stumble over the sleeping Kikyo. Inuyasha resisted the urge to laugh at her but couldn't hide his smirk. Kikyo awoke from the sudden weight of a 15 year-old girl being thrown onto her.
"Kagome? What is—what?" Kikyo asked, her usual calmness lost at the sight of Inuyasha. Inuyasha smiled at her and made a new attempt at getting closer to Kagome. Kikyo gasped as Kagome scrambled off of her and away from the approaching Inuyasha.
"Kagome! Don't worry, he would never harm you. He loves you!" Kikyo explained to the terrified Kagome, who immediately ceased her escape attempts. Kikyo stood up, clinging to a tree stump for support of her weakened body. She prepared herself for the death that was slowly approaching her, in time with Kagome's steps toward Inuyasha. Neither Inuyasha, nor Kagome new what was to become of Kikyo, which is how she wanted it. Inuyasha took a couple steps toward Kagome and stretched his arm out to cup her cheek. Kagome, unknowingly, leaned into his touch and smiled. Suddenly there was a blood curdling scream from behind them, where the soul Kagome and Kikyo shared was being torn out of the older miko's body. Kagome's eyes widened once more in terror and she screamed. Inuyasha grabbed a hold of her waist and pulled her to him. Kikyo was now floating in the air, screaming as each piece of her soul was extracted. Kagome nearly fainted as the glowing orbs came sailing down to her. As each piece of her soul was returned to her, Kagome let out a scream of agony and clenched her fists in Inuyasha's haori. As the last piece of her soul was drawn into her body, Kagome fainted, and Kikyo dissolved. Inuyasha stood there in shock at what had just happened. He soon came to his senses and laid Kagome down on the ground. He left her side for only a moment to look at Kikyo's remains, which were nothing but clumps of dirt and bones, along with her hair ribbon. Inuyasha decided that he would bring these back to Kaede when he was finished with Kagome. He dropped to his knees by his loves head and brushed some stray strands of ebony hair away from her face. He then scooped her up in his arms and ran to Kaede's hut.
