To all who ::ReviewEd:: thank you!! I love getting reviews.

I forgot to put it in, and I guess it didn't upload, so yea... I'm wondering if you guys are wondering why Sango was whispering!! After that, I'll continue the story from Houshi-sama's point of view.

"Nothing was going on, Kagome," Inuyasha said, eyes ablaze.

'No, he's lying again!! No, I know he is!! I can see it in his eyes... they're driving me nuts!' I thought harder, and realized I had gone over the edge. I was so mad; gone crazy with fear that he loved her and anger that if he did.

All I knew was:

I have to get rid of the obstacle.

I took off my bow and drew my arrow, aiming at Sango. Sango's eyes widened slightly and she tried to step back a bit, but was backed against a tree.

I then drew it back as far as I could, and it pierced her stomach.

Many things happened then; Inuyasha froze, eyes darting back and forth, I fell down to my knees not knowing what happened, and Sango let out a mangled cry as she started to fall.

I was on the floor, rocking back and forth, thoughts in my head sounding like this: 'How the heck did I... why the heck?!!' or 'I killed her. Oh. My. God.' I just couldn't believe it.

I was sitting on the floor, rocking back and forth.

"Kagome... chan..." Sango whispered, eyes full of pain and regret.

Chapter six

Miroku had been wondering where everyone had gone. He felt like wandering, so... he did. And what he came to was NOT a good scene.

Sango was on the floor by a tree, her own blood pooled around her. Inuyasha was standing there, in the middle, trapped and startled. Kagome was on the floor rocking back and forth, unable to stop. This... scenario was hectic.

"Inuyasha!! Why didn't you help Sango?!" Miroku yelled, angry at Inuyasha. Sango's light in her eyes were beginning to dull as her breathing became ragged. He ran over to her and picked her up and put her on his back.

"Inuyasha!! Wake up from whatever's holding you!" Miroku shouted. Inuyasha wasn't moving, and Sango was running out of time.

Then, Sango stopped breathing.

Everything happened at once.

Miroku paused, not feeling a movement from Sango. He laid her down as tears streamed down his cheeks. He felt her wrist, and there was nothing.

She died.

Miroku announced this to Inuyasha and Kagome, with a bit of sadness and anger. Inuyasha woke up from his trance and then stared at Miroku like he was faking it.

'This isn't a joke, is it, you monk?' Inuyasha thought, tears in his eyes too. Kagome stopped rocking and stared at Miroku, Sango's lifeless body, then Inuyasha.

Miroku got up and started to cry, and then just sank down again. No one could believe that Sango had died.

Wait.

How exactly DID she die?

Miroku looked at Inuyasha and Kagome. Inuyasha's head was cast down, as was Kagome's. 'What's the matter...? Do they know?'

"Kagome... Inuyasha... How exactly did Sango die?" He asked. He saw the arrow. He knew, but couldn't believe it.

Kagome looked up with tears in her eyes, and Inuyasha glared at her. "I... I did...it..." Kagome said, long streaks of tears running down her face. Miroku's eyes widened, and grief overtook him.

"Sango... Sango... no... you're not dead, you're alive!! Let's go to Kaede's!" He picked her up again and ran to Kaede, Kagome still on the forest floor but Inuyasha following just as fast.

"Miroku, look, I—!" Inuyasha started, but the monk interrupted.

"I don't want explanations now. Not now."

Inuyasha looked down, but still ran.

When they got to Kaede's, she told them the exact thing they already knew for over an hour. She was dead, and the only way to make her alive was—

"You can revive her, but you only have two choices. First, you can go see Sesshoumaru—," At this, Inuyasha growled, "—or you can go and find the place where Yoru lives."

"Who's this 'Yoru' guy?" Inuyasha asked rudely.

Kaede gave him a stern look and replied calmly, "It's not a "guy." He's not even ningen. He's youkai, and he lives in the mountains. Be careful. He can be nice, but if you don't comply with his wishes, he isn't that friendly anymore."

Miroku gave a bitter laugh at the thought of approaching Sesshoumaru and asking him to heal Sango. "I think we'll have better chances with Yoru."

Kaede nodded solemnly and pulled out a map from her trunk. "I'll show you where he lives..." And with that, she gave them directions.

The next day, they traveled on their new quest to save Sango; her limp form on Kirara and Kagome holding her, Inuyasha running with Miroku at his side.

A/N: Sango died. Let us all weep in sorrow!! I'm sorry; she'll be revieved in the next one or two chapters... don't worry!! So I hope you guys liked this chapter... sorry about the explanation at the top. Maybe I'll update faster this time... YAY!

Well, R&R onegai!
