Chapter 24:

It was now night. Inuyasha and Kagome shrunk down to the size of a regular fairy and stayed in Kagome's home.

Kagomehad cried herself to sleep in Inuyasha's arms that night. But now she was peacefully sleeping next to Inuyasha.

Inuyasha examined her every feature, lost in her beauty. He couldn't bare the thought of not having her near him. He just wished that the whole council would just let them go, and they could live happily together. But no. They were stuck here, where Inuyasha was surrounded by enemies.

No one in the village liked Inuyasha. They were only nice to him when Kagome was around. And he didn't like anyone in the village but Kagome. But he couldn't attack them, not with Kagome around.

Then Inuyasha sensed something outside the room. He hear footsteps, and wings flapping. Then he saw smoke.

Inuyasha's eyes widened. Smoke! Where was it coming from. Then Inuyasha caught a wiff of the smoke and figured out it wasn't smoke.

He started to feelsleepy, and the last thing he saw was the blury picture of someone's face and then his face was covered by something before he passed out.

Wherever Inuyasha was being taken..............

"Did you get the half-breed?" Inuyasha heard a man's voice ask.

"Yes." He heard a woman's voice say.

"Did Kagome notice?" The man asked.

"No sir. She was fast asleep." The woman replied.

Inuyasha slowly opened his eyes. His vision was a little blurry at first, but he soon was able to see clearly to find that he was in a cage and tied up.

He looked to sse who the people talking were to see that it was someone from the council and...

"Flower!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Oh look..." Flower said in a babying tone. "Did the little puppy have a nice nap?" She asked as she reached her hand into the cage and squeezed Inuyasha's cheek.

Inuyasha tried to bite her, but Flower moved her hand away from Inuyasha quickly.

"Oh. You're a bad doggy." Flower teased, obviously getting Inuyasha pissed off.

"What the hell am I doing here?!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Why, we're keeping Kagome safe from you." Flower replied.

"Flower used to be a professional theif not long ago. We thought we should put he talents to good use for once." The fairy from the council said.

"You're sick." Inuyasha stated, sounding very pissed. "All of you!" He yelled.

"Oh. Poor half-breed can't go back to Kagome." Flower babied Inuyasha again. "Because you're not good enough for her.

"Leave her alone. Let her be happy with Hojo." Flower continued. "There's no way she could love you anyway."

"That's not true!" Inuaysah yelled. "Kagome and I both love each other!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Really?" Flower asked. "'Cause I thought I heard her say that she couldn't stand you? That there was no way she could love a half-breed? That she would much rather be with Hojo than some stubborn hanyou?" Flower said.

Inuyasha was only getting madderr by the minute. Kagome wouldn't say those things about him. She never would! Flower was only trying to get them against each other. Just like what Naraku did to him and Kikyo.

But then Inuyasha saw someone walking in. It was...

"Kagome!" He exclaimed.

But Kagome when Kagome looked at him, she didn't look the same. She looked happy to see Inuyasha, but to see him tied up and in a cage.

"Good work Flower." Kagome said. "Now get rid of him and send Hojo back to my room." kagome said as she walked out of the door.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled, but Kagome continued to walk away.

"See Inuyasha?" Flower said. "She loves Hojo. Not you."

Inuyasha's face was filled with pain and anger. How could Kagome do this to him?! After all they've been through?! But Inuyasha saw Kagome, and saw the features of her face. The way she looked at him. Not happy to see him. Not happy that he was unharmed. But happy that she would be rid of him.

Inuyasha felt his stomach twist into knots as the pain in his chest grew. He tried to fight back tears that threatened to come from his eyes. But the tears came. Two tears alone fell down his cheeks. Just two.

He couldn't wipe them away with his hands tied behind his back, so they stayed there.

Kagome was gone, and Inuyasha wasn't loved by her anymore.

AN- You all hate me and think I'm evil now! I know you do! There's no way you could think I'm an angel or anything after what I've done to our favorite couple! But is the story over? Or will it continue? What will happen to Inuyasha? Why is Kagome acting the way she is? WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!?!?!?!?!?!?!? These are all the questions running through your mind and I know it! Plz R&R. Thanx! TTFN!!!
