Chapter 2 After Kagome's Death

Inuyasha's eyes turned blood red at the sight of Kagome's limp, lifeless body, picking her up, he held her close to his heart, hoping for a slight chance that she might still be alive. He stayed that way for about ten minutes, holding her, and crying for the loss of his friend. Yet another person he had cherished had been taken away from him. This was the second time he had lost a woman close to his heart. The first had been Kikyo; she had died by Naraku's hands nearly fifty years ago. Now it had happened again; the half dog-demon knelt there in the dirt, looking at his fallen friend's lifeless form. He could feel himself begin to change into a full demon, but quickly regained control of himself, his eyes, however, remained crimson. Willing himself back in control of his body, he clutched Kagome's corpse tighter to him; his claws dug deeply into Kagome's arms leaving postmortem bruises on her clod flesh. Tears streaked his handsome face and he knew he would never see her again; he would never get to hear her voice, or her laughter, or even be forced into submission by that damnable word 'SIT'.

Songo came up behind Inuyasha, she too was crying at the sight of Kagome's lifeless form. The slayer woman dropped to the ground beside Inuyasha, who cast her a dirty look when she made a move to brush some hair from Kagome's face. Songo's eyes went wide for a moment before she spoke, "Inuyasha, she's gone. There's nothing you can do for her now; the best thing you can do for her is to take her body back to her mother. Let her family say their final good byes, to her. I think you should be the one to do it; we can't pass through the Bones Eater's Well."

Shippo had been watching the exchange unnoticed. "Please, Inuyasha," he said, his voice wavering as he spoke, "we all loved her, we need to let her spirit rest… in her time… with her family…" the fox child felt a tear roll down his cheek even though he had tried to fight back against his tears.

Inuyasha picked up Kagome's body, still refusing to loosen his grip on the dead girl, and ran away from where his remaining friends stood. Miroku put his arm around Songo's shaking shoulders; she garbed lecherous monk and stared to cry unabashedly into this chest. Shippo jumped up onto Miroku's shoulders, wanting to comfort Songo, but also needing her to comfort him in return. All of them prayed that Inuyasha wouldn't go and do something stupid.

It was a sunny day when Inuyasha walked up the dirt road to Kaiede's village, with Kagome's body still cradled in his arms, but it didn't feel sunny. To him it was depressing and dark, even though the sky was blue and birds sang cheery songs over head. All he could think about was getting to the person who killed Kagome, and killing them in return. Oh yes, whoever was responsible for the death of Kagome would suffer as painful a fucking death as he could make it.

When he came to the door of Kaiede's hut, he looked inside to see Kikyo sitting there across from her sister talking. He made a small, sad, strangled noise, involuntarily, at the back of his throat. At hearing this noise, Kaiede and Kikyo turned to see the half-dog-demon, Inuyasha, holding Kagome tightly.

Kaiede was the first to speak, "Inuyasha, is… are you… is everything all right?" in that instant she was reverted to her five year old self. Uncertain of what to say or do, just knowing that she was deeply saddened at the loss of the life of someone she cared about tremendously.

Inuyasha snapped at the old woman, "Does it look like everything all right!" he demanded coldly. "She's dead! I was too slow, I wasn't there to save her!" once again he was beating himself up over not being there in the moment he was needed the most.

Kikyo walked past Inuyasha, she knew that he had cared for the odd future girl, just as he had cared for her fifty years ago. She knew he was hurting inside, and she didn't wasn't to see it; she didn't want to feel pity for him. "I will let you talk to my sister in private." Once outside Kikyo said to herself in a low voice, "I knew she was dead…" She had known the instant it had happened. She had felt it, she had felt that something was wrong.

Inuyasha walked past the old hag, placing Kagome on the floor covering her with a blanket, so that her face was covered as well as the rest of her. He didn't want to look at her anymore… the blood she had coughed up had stained her lips and her clothes, while the rest of her was unearthly pale. She did not look like she was sleeping… No, Kagome looked dead.

Kaiede looked at the silver haired boy's somber expression, and his defensive posture, it was obvious he didn't want to talk, but she needed to. She wanted answers, and she was going to get them. "I am sorry to ask you this," no she wasn't, "but how did this happen?"

"I… I really don't know. We were in a village… by a lake, below the mountains, it had been attacked by some sort of demon…" he trailed off and then said as if to himself, "only a demon could have done that… right?" He shook his head as if clearing his thoughts before continuing, "What ever it was it killed Kagome, when I got there it was already gone." He looked at Kagome one final time before walking away, leaving her with Kaiede.

Kaiede caught his arm before he exited the hut. "Where are you going?" she asked.

"I am going back the others, and then I'm going after the son of a bitch that killed Kagome," he took in a deep breath, before continuing, "I'll be back later to take Kagome home to her mother, hag. So don't you fucking move her."

Kaiede sighed as she watched him leave, "You are not the only one who lost Kagome," her words though spoken softly could be heard by the sensitive ears of Inuyasha, he paused a moment on the dirt path, and tensed. He knew her words were true. He forced his muscles to relax, and continued walking down the same dirt road he had come from.

The sun was going beginning to set, instinctively he quickened his pace; he wanted to get to his friends before darkness fell. There was a light smell in the air, he didn't know what it was, and he couldn't pin point where it was coming from, but the teasing sent was being carried on the breeze. As he was walking down an incline, he heard a noise, like the snapping of a dry twig; he spun to face the direction in which the noise had come, and found Koga, the wolf demon, standing there before him, in all of his arrogant glory.

" So mutt-boy," the blue eyed wolf smirked, "where's my woman? I can smell her all over you; is she in the village?" Koga stood there looking at Inuyasha waiting for him to respond. Then the dark haired demon looked at his rival's face, he decided the dog-eared mutt looked a little different; there was sadness in his amber eyes. Koga was a little uncertain of what to think, and so he asked again, "Tell me, Inuyasha, Where is she?"

Inuyasha looked at his rival, getting madder and madder by the second. "Do you really want to know Koga?" his voice was oddly devoid of emotion, "She's dead," he said matter of factly, "Kaiede has her body. She was attacked… I didn't see what it was, but it got her."

Koga was standing there looking at him in disbelief, trying to determine if Inuyasha was joking or lying to him but Inuyasha's face didn't change at all, and Koga knew it to be true. Inuyasha wouldn't lie about something as serious as that.

" What?" his expression was one of shock, "I don't understand, how could this happen? You were-" he cut himself off mid sentence. "But, how? I thought that with you around she would be safe." Koga sounded like Inuyasha felt. Utterly miserable.

"Miroku and Songo are waiting for me," Inuyasha said after what seemed to be a long period of time. "I'm coming back to take Kagome's body to her time, so if you want to pay your last respects, you had better do it now." Inuyasha disappeared into the forest, leaving Koga alone to stand there in shock. The wolf demon headed towards the village where Kaiede lived. Following Kagome's smell, he found the hut, and looked at if for a few minutes trying to work up the courage to go inside, not.
