Author's Notes: Finally the long awaited chapter! Enjoy! ^^.

Kagome stared through blurry, teary eyes at the limp body. He looked dead. He acted dead. He probably was dead. Kagome stumbled towards Sesshoumaru, and slid to the floor, a fresh wave of tears racking her shoulders.

"I-I'm s-s-s-sorry…" Kagome sobbed, her face hidden in her hands, knowing she was not heard by anyone.

"It's my fault, always, always my fault. My soul betrayed InuYasha. I betrayed my family. I abandoned them. I abandoned InuYasha, even though he made a stupid mistake, I should've stayed by him. He's probably dead because he knows I don't love him. You know that right, Sesshoumaru? I don't love him. I love you. All I want is you. And now I've betrayed you too!" Kagome screamed the last sentence.

"I'll never forgive myself. Everything's my fault. Everything." Kagome whispered.

Kagome stood with legs that felt like they were lacking bones.

"You. Have. To. Get. Him. Out." Kagome said slowly, pointing at Dumbledore. His face was more deeply lined then ever but Kagome could see the glint of satisfaction in his blue eyes. His experiment had succeeded.

"I've told you once before, Kagome. I'll tell you again. There is no way for him to get out of that artificial world." Dumbledore whispered yet Kagome heard him perfectly well.

"B-But, you have to. YOU HAVE TO!" Kagome shrieked again. Ignoring the aching of her throat and the pain in her legs, she pulled out her wand and dashed towards the headmaster, throwing at him every single spell she could think of. Dumbledore merely dodged each hex she threw at him.

Now Kagome was no longer crying with tears of water.

She was crying with tears of love. Fat, tears of love that took the form of blood. Her tears were a symbol of her love, pain, and regret.

Drops of blood stained the carpet as blood trailed down her pale cheeks.

Then, someone hexed her, making Kagome fall to the ground. She never knew what hit her.

She just…

Fell.

And dreamed of flowers, and a shining sun, and amber eyes.

Where was he? Sesshoumaru gazed at a grassy landscape with hills and trees everywhere. Butterflies fluttered near a rosebush and squirrels chattered. Other than them, no living being besides Sesshoumaru was there.

Slowly, cautiously, he took a step, every sense on alert. One step. Another. And another. And another. It seemed in almost every sense like Feudal Japan. But one thing was missing. Sesshoumaru just didn't know what it was.

He ran through the forest. Everything was exactly like his home in Feudal Japan. It felt so wonderful to be back! There was a rustling at his left and he stopped instantly, amber eyes flashing. What was there? Carefully, he parted a thicket of bushes and his eyes widened.

There was a clearing. But it looked extremely strange. Blocks of the grassy ground were moving and were extremely blurry. He looked up at the sky. It was a dull, reddish color. Sesshoumaru looked at the sky outside of the clearing. It was a forget-me-not-blue with white, fluffy clouds.

Was this some sort of dark witchcraft? Very, very, slowly, Sesshoumaru walked into the clearing. He looked down and again, his amber eyes widened in shock. His feet were also in big, three-dimensional, blocks that were blurry. Carefully, he placed his hand on the ground. It felt strange. Not warm, nor cold though he could have sworn it was a distinctly muggy day. He looked at his hand. His thumb and palm were in a block, slowly moving away. Sesshoumaru jerked his hand up and stared in wonder. His hand was perfectly normal. He traced his thumb, deep in thought.

What was going on?
*

"Albus, for some reason, I can't stop the blood coming out of her eyes! I have to give her a blood replenishing potion every half hour and I have no idea what's causing these tears! They seem like perfectly normal tears except they're blood!" The shrill voice of Madame Pomfrey sounded.

"That's normal for a girl like her." Said the calm, soothing, voice of Albus Dumbledore.

"A girl like her? What on earth is that supposed to mean?"

"She's going through a very hard time. Those tears are a symbol of it."

"Well, it's not healthy and I want something done about it!"

"Nothing can be done, unless she wakes up. When she wakes up, make sure she doesn't feel any emotional pain. If she does, she'll start crying blood again. In the meantime, keep giving her a blood replenishing potion every half hour."

"Well alright. I suppose I can give her an emotion controlling potion. However, it only works for fifteen minutes and if something really traumatic happens, the effects will diminish."

Something was injected in Kagome's arm but she slept on, unaware of what was going on around her.

Suddenly the door burst open and Madam Pomfrey shrieked.

"Boy! Do watch what you are doing, I have patients here, you know!" She admonished a short boy who was panting heavily.

"B-But Ma-Ma'am. Du-Dumbledore's n-n-needed! You-Know-Who's attacking and some weird beasts are going around, killing the students!

"W-What?"

"You heard me! Dumbledore's needed!"

"Madame Pomfrey, you must stay here."

"But Albus—"

"No, this is the Hospital Wing and those that are wounded need a place to be safe. I'll put a charm on the wing, it should be able to withstand many curses or explosions that may occur. Lead the way, Pettigrew." Dumbledore commanded the boy.

"W-Wha…?" Kagome opened her eyes. The blood flowing from them immediately ceased.

"What's going on?" Kagome's eyes were different. Unfocused and gray, an effect of the potion.

"Nothing's the matter, dear. Everything's alright." Madame Pomfrey said. Suddenly there was a huge explosion.

BOOM!

A chunk of the ceiling fell to ground and landed with a thud! next to the cot Kagome had been sleeping in. Madame Pomfrey and Kagome stared at it a moment.

"Everything's alright?" Kagome asked disbelievingly. Quickly, she rushed out of the Hospital Wing, ignoring Madame Pomfrey's commands.

She dashed down corridors she'd never seen before. The castle constantly shook and plaster came down from the ceiling, dusting Kagome's hair.

Words could not describe the relief Kagome felt when she saw Nearly Headless Nick.

"Nick!" Kagome called. The ghost turned.

"Oh Kagome! You must help! You-Know-Who's attacking! The whole world is soon going to become a desert with nothing living! This will even make the ghosts perish!" Nick said with wide eyes.

"What?" Kagome asked with disbelief.

"Just…hurry! You must at least hide yourself if you aren't going to help! There has to be somewhere Hogwarts can keep you safe!" Nick yelled at her. Kagome got a hold of her self and nodded. She raced through corridors once more. Everywhere were dead bodies and students battling demons.

Suddenly a demon caught sight of Kagome and slashed his other opponent in half. The girl fell to the ground without a sound, her brown hair mixing in with red, sticky liquid. The demon then charged after Kagome. Kagome concentrated and threw a ball of white energy at the demon. For some reason, however, it did not affect the demon at all.

'Damn, must be one of the stronger ones.' Kagome murmured to herself. 'Well, only one other option.'

With that, she ran, the demon close at her heels.

'Come on, Nick said there had to be a place to keep me safe. Where could it be? I just need a place to be kept safe (it'd be nice if it was warm too)! A shelter! Come on, please, show yourself, wherever you could be!'

Suddenly there was a richly furnished door Kagome had never seen before. For some reason, she felt strangely drawn to eat. She opened the door, scrambled in and slammed the door shut. It was all dark and it took a while for Kagome's eyes to adjust but when they did, they widened. She appeared to be in a huge room. It was almost empty except there was a rug and a fireplace, along with a cup of hot tea sitting on the hearth.

Slowly, Kagome walked towards the roaring fireplace. What was this place, she wondered. She plopped down onto the plush carpet. What on earth was going on out there? Shouldn't she help? Kagome was confused at what to do. She sipped the tea and thought for a moment. Then, she stood up, determined to fight. 'I'm not going to sit around a cry. I'm strong, I can fight!' Kagome thought. She walked towards the door and touched the doorknob.

BOOM!

Kagome was thrown backwards.

"Whaa..?"

Threw a haze of red, Kagome saw that the door had been damaged but everything else intact inside the room. Slowly, she stood up on wobbly legs and stumbled to the doorway.

Red flowed out of her eyes at once.

*I got that idea from Animatrix, great movie!

Author's Notes: I know that nearly everyone was mad at me about the last chappie but don't worry, Sesshoumaru's not dead, er, technically. And he and Kagome will get together again, er, relatively...

Now REVIEW! ^^

Also: If someone can guess two of the survivors, I'll update within a week! ^^
