Chapter 3: Trouble
Kagome, Sango, Shippou, Miroku, and Kirara had once again set off, this time, the reason unknown. Kagome held back tears and anger as she recalled everything that had happened between Inuyasha and herself one week ago.

"Inuyasha, how could you?"
Kagome's heart was just about broken at the moment.
"I'm sorry Kagome, but I needed this, and you knew it. My goal in life was to avenge Kikyou's death, and complete the shikon. I'm sorry it had to end this way."
Kagome's heart broke, and her anger reached sky-level as she looked at the completed shikon in his hands, and wondered what was around her neck.
"Listen you, we have been traveling for five years together, and I thought we had developed a loving trust for each other. I thought you had truly meant it when you said that you no longer needed the shikon. You told me that I could have it, that it would be better off with me."
Inuyasha's heart tinged at her tone of voice.
"Listen Kagome, I'm sorry, I really am. I need the shikon, I only said that because you thought I was being selfish, and I was, I still am. My ultimate goal was to get the shikon back together, and kill you. I never expected to fall in love with you. Yes, at that time, I truly was in love with you. Then Kikyou came back, and I didn't know what to do. I am sorry you feel like I am deceiving you, but I was with Kikyou first, and if I go with you, I would be deceiving Kikyou. I was in love with you, but I wasn't finished being in love with Kikyou, Kagome. Please understand." Inuyasha was trying his hardest to get Kagome to understand.
"I understand that Inuyasha. What I don't understand is why you lied to me. I can't believe you would betray me like that. Maybe in the sense of love, you would be betraying Kikyou, but in the sense of friendship, you are betraying me. You never had to lie like that. I just want to understand, no, never mind. I don't want to understand anymore."
Inuyasha also was starting to wonder why he had said those things. I was almost as if he weren't himself..
"Kagome. I love you. I truly do, but I was in love with Kikyou far to long to let her go. We were separated for 50 years. I need to be with her. I thought that maybe stealing the shikon and wishing that Kikyou and I could live happily ever after was the way to do it."
"Inuyasha, you cannot live happily ever after. Kikyou is taking you to hell with her. I don't know who described it to you, but that isn't a place you play with dolls, and dress up in your best dress for a tea party. The statement 'burn in hell' wasn't made up for a faerie tale. We are not in a faerie tale, so I highly doubt that you will live happily ever after."
Kagome was gaining back control, but her aura still flared with anger.
Inuyasha thought about this for a while.
"Here then, just take it."
Inuyasha threw the shikon on the ground.
"Inuyasha, what are you doing!" Kikyou was getting enraged.
"Kikyou, you won the battle, and got the grand prize. Let her have the trophy."
The conversation continue about ten minutes longer, and before Kagome knew it, Inuyasha had Kikyou in his arms, and was off, off to spend the rest of his life 'if you could call it that..' with Kikyou.
Before Inuyasha left, Kagome heard what sounded like a "Good-Bye Kagome."
She couldn't believe it. He had mumbled it, almost as if he didn't want her ears to hear it, but in her mind, it was perfectly clear.
The pain of him leaving her hurt tremendously, but the thing that had hurt her most, was realizing that his words were true. The pain would eat her from the inside out.. if she let it.
She couldn't help it though. The man she loved was not returning the affection she deserved.
Kikyou was rightfully his, and he was rightfully Kikyou's. They were never done loving each other, only through Naraku their love ceased for the time being, but they would not give up.
Kagome could never take that away from either of them.
Kagome broke down and started crying for hours. Once the tears began to fade, she decided to go back to find a hot spring, and let some of her tension out.
Once she found one, she undressed, and got in. About 3 minutes later, the tears started flowing again, and this time, wouldn't stop. She sobbed for another hour, and when the tears had finally stopped again, she washed up, changed her clothes, and headed for the village.
This day would go on forever it seemed, or at least, the memory.

Kagome was currently occupied with a snake youkai they had encountered a while ago.
Each second that passed by, the snake seemingly got stronger, as she and her friends continued to grew weaker. From out of nowhere, the youkai exploded, and once the ash disappeared, a lone youkai woman had occupied the stage. "Who are you, and what do you w-want?"
Miroku and Sango curiously awaited the answer to the question Kagome had asked, but the woman never answered. She just smiled.. and disappeared.
