Hiya Minna-san! I'm sorry I haven't updated, you see, i got only 8 reviews! But then, today, for some odd reason, i went and read my chapter, and i saw that it was quite short...so i told myself..hmm..well guess it's my fault...so, now I'm come back! With a longer chapter, and a better one! And from now on, I will be editing the previous chapters, so..yea. ..

Important news to all readers..: Please go read my new story :) Modern Fairytale, it has VERY long chapters (first chappie is 6 pages :) ) and the vocabulary and grammar is less worse there since I corrected it.

To WovenBambooPattern, as the second part of your birthday gift, and also because your death threats are scary, lolz. Lub ya lots!

What you mean to me

On the last chapter...

"WHO'S THERE!" she screamed frantically.

Just as she said that, Kanna and Naraku appeared.

Chapter 9: Realization

As soon as he remembered, he pushed away Kikyou...but it was too late..

It was too late...It was too late! Kagome was..was..she was dead! InuYasha growled at Kikyou and ran around in the forest.

'No..NO! She CAN'T be dead..it can't be..It's not possible...Kikyou's just bluffing..right? RIGHT!' He tried telling himself. He cut many trees, any unlucky thing that came in contact with him would suffer his wrath.

Rain started pouring down.

InuYasha stopped running after 1 hour or so..and fell to his knees, he was in the middle of nowhere..his bangs were hiding his eyes.

"KAGOMEEEEEEEEE!" He wailed as his body came down and his fist met with the ground. His body was shaking, for the second time since he had met Kagome, or Kikyou for that matter, he was crying. He couldn't believe how stupid he was. He couldn't believe how blind he could be...it was so clear...so crystal clear.

The only other person he had shed tears for...was his mom. And now, twice he had cried for this girl he traveled with. This girl which he knew he had feelings for, but wasn't sure if it was her, the one he loved and loves, or Kikyou, the women who had pinned him years ago. But now..it was clear..right? He..he was crying for her. For her, NOT Kikyou, he had plenty of times he could have cried for Kikyou and would not be considered somewhat a wuss. But he didn't. He only did for Kagome...Kagome..even the name brought joy to his heart...but..now..she was gone...she was gone!

At that thought..his eyes suddenly turned red...

-----------------------------

Just as she said that, Kanna and Naraku appeared.

"Na..Naraku!" Kagome said as she tried walking backwards.

"Don't worry, for once, I am not here to get your jewel shards, but more to show you this. I am your ally Kagome, InuYasha is your foe." Naraku said while "kuku-ing".

Kanna stepped up and showed Kagome her mirror.

"The mirror..never lies.." the little white dressed and haired girl said in a ghostly voice.

Kagome looked...and what she saw broke her heart.

It was InuYasha..and Kikyou...hugging...kissing...it was like the first time she had caught them almost doing it...but deep down, she knew it wasn't that time she was seeing, this was different...somehow...

"No..no! InuYasha is not my foe...he wouldn't do anything to hurt me! He simply loves Kikyou! It's not his fault!" Kagome said while shutting her eyes.

"Now now dear, don't deny what you know is true. You know that InuYasha knows you love him, yet he keeps going to Kikyou secretly, without telling you, yet knowing you follow him. He knows all the things Kikyou did to you, and yet, he never did anything. I, Kagome, am your ally. Since I can help you get what your heart desires...InuYasha..." Naraku said while laughing at the poor confused girl.

Rain started pouring.

"NO! InuYasha..doesn't know what Kikyou did to me...he doesn't know that he hurts me...it's not his fault! InuYasha is not against me!" Kagome sobbed.

"Look in the mirror again Kagome, look.." He said with his hypnotic voice, and for some reason, Kagome obeyed and looked.

It was showing Kagome and Kikyou. It was an old scene, it happened a few months ago.

"No! Kikyou! Please don't do it!" Kagome said as she cried.

Kikyou held a knife in her hand.

"Will you leave InuYasha alone? Will you leave him to come to hell with me?" Kikyou asked.

"NO! but..why are you asking ME this? I mean...InuYasha wouldn't care whether I think he should go to hell with you or not.." Kagome said sadly.

"Oh, but that's where you're wrong my dear, you're what's stopping him. He thinks that it's his responsibility to protect you, don't get me wrong, he doesn't love you or anything, but he thinks you as his little sister...so..are you going to leave him alone?" Kikyou asked seriously.

"I.." Kagome couldn't say anything...InuYasha thought of her as his little sister? She was touched..yet sad...didn't he know how she felt about him?

"I'll take that as a no.." Kikyou said as she pushed the blade against Kagome's delicate skin making it cut open and blood poured out.

"Ahh!" Kagome groaned and moaned at the pain. Kikyou had her completely paralyzed.

When Kikyou was done, Kagome had several cuts on her arms. She had to put on bandages and put on perfumes, so InuYasha wouldn't suspect anything, then head back to camp afterwards.

"And don't dare telling this to InuYasha, Kagome dear, because if you do, he'll find out that you weren't willing to sacrifice yourself for his happiness, which is to be with me, and he'll think of you as a selfish person..and he'll hate you for the rest of your life.." Kikyou said before leaving.

And then..the mirror went black.

"Remember that Kagome? When you came back, don't think that InuYasha didn't know what happened. He saw everything, but he didn't SAY anything. He doesn't care about you Kagome. All he cares about is how to please Kikyou, which is to hurt you. Kikyou does not like you Kagome, and I am the only one that can help protect you from her, and get InuYasha to love you." Naraku taunted Kagome.

"No..he didn't know that happened..he didn't know!" Kagome yelled, suddenly, all thoughts of the times Kikyou had hurt her and she didn't dare tell InuYasha came back to her mind.

'All he cares about is how to please Kikyou, which is to hurt you. He doesn't care about you Kagome. he saw everything but he didn't SAY anything.' all theses voices in her mind. She was so confused...so broken inside. She didn't know what to do and who to listen anymore.

"INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAA" Kagome yelled as she held her head in her hands and fell down to the ground.

----------------------------

"INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAA"

InuYasha lifted his head as he heard that. Kagome's voice..was he hearing things? Was she not dead? He quickly stood up and ran towards the voice, with only one thought in head.

'I'm coming Kagome..my love..'

Yup :D this chappie was longer right? (3-4 pages) (And less vocabulary mistakes, right?) Well don't worry, they'll keep getting longer as long as I get more and more reviews. I'm review obsessed..so moo! Now REVIEW! And also, if you haven't read my other stories, please do :D. Thanks!
