(Or ladies, galz, watever)

Sango turned around and looked in to Kagome's eyes intently, waiting for Kagome to speak.

"I'm going home."

Sango just stood there, staring at Kagome not looking surprised.

"I thought something like this might happen. It's about Inuyasha right?" asked Sango.

"No.. not.. that…it's…just…that I have no reason to stay here, the jewel is complete. I'm leaving and that's my final decision." Kagome answered almost in a whisper.

There was a long, awkward silence before Sango spoke.

"I understand Kagome."said Sango sadly. "Thanks for always being there for me when times were tough. You were always so kind-hearted and caring to the others and me. I'll always remember you."

"Sango, can you take these herbs back to Kaede's?"

"Are you leaving now? Why don't you say good bye to the others… w-we'll all b-be by the w-w-well when you lea-…"Sango was close to tears now and Kagome could tell.

"Sango please… don't cry, you're going to.. to.. make me cry too."

Sango and Kagome stood facing eachother their faces tear streaked.

"Hello ladies." said Miroku cheerfully, suddenly appearing.

"Miroku…" Sango and Kagome said at the same time.

"Why the sad faces?"

Sango glanced at Kagome, giving her a look that said, "tell him."

"Uhh… Miroku I'm leaving."Kagome told him.

"Hmmmn… I see, did Inuyasha do something unpleasant again?" Miroku asked.

"No, I'm leaving for real. Not because of Inuyasha. I-it's not like I don't like being around you guys or anything like that but it's time for m-m-me to leave…"

Kaede and Shippou came walking to them.

"Kagome, Inuyasha is getting awfully restless. Why don't ye go on." Said Kaede to Kagome.

"Yeah Kagome, Inuyasha is getting angry… oh oh here he comes." Shippou said.

Inuyasha came towards them, his arms crossed and looking angry.

"What took you so long and why do you two look so… wait…have you been crying?" complained Inuyasha and looked over Sango and Kagome suspiciously.

"Oh, Inuyasha!" Kagome said as she fell in to his arms.

Inuyasha blushed. He scratched his head like he usually did when he was embarrassed.

"I told you to stay put. Your wounds haven't healed yet." Kagome said in between sobs.

Inuyasha suddenly returned to angry mode.

"Hey!" he yelled. "No crying! Stop it! Was it me? Did I make you cry?"

As usual his weakness was watching someone cry.

"I'm leaving." Kagome told everyone.

"When are you coming back?" asked Shippou.

"This time I'm going for good Shippou."

"But…"

"Sorry Shippou I-I've made my decision."

"Yes that is a good enough decision child. You would like to go to your homeland eh? Well the jewel is complete. Thank you Kagome for being so brave and helping us collect the jewel shards." Kaede thanked Kagome.

Miroku finally got the idea.

"I get it now. Thank you Kagome, for helping me get rid of my wind tunnel." Miroku said as he flexed his right hand.

He inched closer to Kagome.

"Now my hand isn't cursed anymore. That is only a little bit." Miroku continued and did his thing to Kagome.

Kagome bonked him on the head. "PERVERT!" She had gone from sadness to rage.

"Heh heh… sorry about that as I said I think my hand has still got a curse."

"Isn't that just your pervertedness?" Kagome and Sango questioned him."Well thank you Kagome for caring for all of us when we needed you and although it is hard to say goodbye, we'll miss you."Miroku said his goodbye to Kagome.

"We'll miss you Kagome, thanks for helping me, especially when Inuyasha was

being a bully to me." said Shippou.

Inuyasha was currently thinking that this was fake and that Kagome was just going to go and come.

"What's the big deal anyway? Why are we standing here like this is the last time we're going to see her?" said Inuyasha absentmindedly.

"Because she's going, stupid!" said Shippou.

"You callin me stupid, stupid?" said Inuyasha as he started to punch Shippou's head.

"OSUWARI!"yelled Kagome.(Sit)

"That's the last time I'm using that word Inuyasha, so be thankful."

Kagome removed the beads from Inuyasha's neck and handed them to Kaede.

"You're free Inuyasha, As long as you don't see me you won't need them. SIT! See it doesn't work anymore. Like I said you won't be needing them anymore." Kagome told Inuyasha and gave him a peck on the cheek.

Inuyasha finaly came to his senses.

"You're not serious are you Kagome?"

"Inuyasha, my decision is final."

"But… what…why?"

"I have no reason to stay here. The jewel is complete! Naraku is destroyed! It's time for me to go! Can't you understand! That's all I was here for, collecting the jewel!"

"What do you mean that's all you were here for?"

"Goodbye Inuyasha" said Kagome blinking back tears and she went down the well before Inuyasha could say his last goodbye.
