…………………………………………….A Confession Of Time………………………………………
Inu- Hey, Kagome. (Inuyasha says in a hushed voiced)
Kag- Yes Inuyasha, is something wrong? Cause you know if something's wrong you can tell me!
Inu- Okay, don't get so jumpy, I was just wondering about that time spell thingy you were talking about.
Kag- Inuyasha, you of all people should know that this is nothing to worry about, I mean after all this is my grandfather we are talking about! None of his spells, or inventions, or remedies ever work.
Inu- But what if this one did work?
Kag- What are you getting at Inuyasha? What could you possibly use the time spell for?
Inu- Nothing, it was just a question.
Kag- Inuyasha, I… (Kagome says with a pleading voice, but is interrupted.)
Shi- Hey slow polks! Pick up the pace a little would ya!
Inu- Yeah yeah, hold your horses, we're comin!
Kag- "What could he want to go back in time for? Maybe to keep the jewel from shattering, but he's a changed person now, he wouldn't be so selfish as to wish to be whole demon. He doesn't want that any more. Or dose he? I'm so confused. I don't know if he's still the same old selfish him or not. And if he really dose love me, and if he really has changed, then what would he do with the jewel once he got it?" (Kagome releases a sigh of confusion)
Hey Inuyasha.
Inu- Yeah.
Kag- Do you still want to be full demon? I mean now that you know what you're like when you're full demon, do you really want to be like that.
Inu- Why wouldn't I? It's all I've ever wanted.
Kag- But you're a mindless killing machine in your demon form! You're strong enough already! And you would hurt your friends, like Sango, and Miroku, and Shipo, and… and Me.
Inu- (A worried look passes over Inuyasha's face) I guess I don't know what I want any more. All I know is that if I was a full demon, I would finally be accepted and respected.
Kag- But…
Inu- Look, I don't want to talk about it, okay. Besides, at the rate we're going, we won't have to worry about that for a wile.
Kag- "Who dose he want to gain respect from, and who would respect someone that would kill them. The only people that would ever respect him are his friends, and if he became a full demon he would lose our respect. But maybe the jewel isn't the reason he wants the time spell, maybe it's…" (gasp)
I know why you want the time spell! It's Kikyo! Isn't it?
Inu- huuhh?…
Kag- You want to go back to save Kikyo! Don't you?
Inu- (Inuyasha turns his head, closes his eyes and crosses his arms. Maybe!)
Kag- How could you! I thought you were over her!
Inu- I loved her okay!
Kag- But if you go back and save her then when you come back I wont be here!
Inu- What?
Kag- I'm Kikyo's reincarnation! If you bring her back, then I might not ever be born. And even if I am I wouldn't poses the jewel, and I never would have come here and met you. Inuyasha if you bring her back, you will never see me again.
Inu- Well I guess that's just a small sacrifice I'll have to make. (Inuyasha is acting as if he doesn't care, but it's visible in his eyes that he is torn in the choice, and heart broken, but Kagome can't see it.)
Kag- But I thought you…
Inu- Yeah well you thought wrong!
Kag- I hate you! I wish I had never met you, you… you…, you ungrateful mutt! SIT YOU PIG!
Inu- (When Inuyasha sits up he sees Kagome running from his sobbing, he immediately regrets what he said, he knows its not true, but he can't take it back.)
