Chapter 29:
Inuyasha was once again stuck in a jail cell. There was no barrier for this one, but he knew that if he broke out, he would just get himself in more trouble and wouldn't be able to get himself out of it.
It was dark in the room. Inuyasha could barely see anything, but was still able to get around the cell without tripping over anything. The cell was empty too. There wasn't even a bed or anything. He would have to sleep on the hard floor. There were two guards outside of the cell now.
Then Inuyasha saw a figure come into the room. He couldn't make out who it was, until he heard the voice of the person.
"I need to see him." A girl's voice said.
"Certainly ma'am." One of the guards said as he opened up the door to the cell.
Then the girl looked back at the guard. "Could we have some privacy please?" She requested. "I promise you that we won't try anything."
"Yes ma'am." The other guard said, but the other guard seemed reluctant to leave. So the first guard grabbed him by the arm. "Let's just let them be together." He whispered tot he reluctant guard. "There's no telling if the boy will be found not guilty or not. This could be her last chance to see him." He whispered quietly. "Let them be."
"Fine." The reluctant guard replied, and the two left.
Once the guards were gone, the girl looked at Inuyasha. "Inuyasha?" She asked, sounding like she was crying now.
"Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. "Is that you?" Inuyasha asked as his hands searched through the darkness for her.
"Yes." Kagome cried. Then she fell into him, burying her face in his chest, crying. "I'm so sorry." She cried into his chest, making the kimono wet.
"Sorry about what?" Inuyasha asked her. "For coming to help you? For bein here for you?" Inuyasha asked.
"No. For getting you mixed up in all this." Kagome cried, now looking up at Inuyasha. Their eyes had adjusted to the darkness, and now they could see each other. "And now you might be killed because you killed those fairies to protect me." She cried even more.
Inuyasha places a hand under her chin and lift her face to his, kissing her pationatly. Kagome returned the kiss, not wanting to stop. But Inuyasha pulled away, ending the kiss. "It's OK Kagome. I did it all for you." He told her. "I love you."
"I love you too!" Kagome cried, her arms wrapped around his neck as cried. "But I don't want you to die!" She cried more.
Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Kagome. "Kagome..." He said softly. "Everything is going to be OK." He told her.
"But what if it isn't?" Kagome asked. "What if you were found guilty, and then they kill you? How will I go on without you?" She cried.
"You're strong Kagome. I know you'll make it through, no matter what happens." Inuyasha reassured her.
"I don't want to have to live without you." Kagome told him. "The trial is in one week." Kagome informed Inuyasha. "And if they find you guilty, you will be killed." Kagome cried.
"Stop crying about it already!" Inuyasha exclaimed, not sounding too comforting anymore. Then he saw how upset Kagome was, and he just could help but feel guilty. So he softened his expression and looked at Kagome lovingly. "Look, we just have to spend what time we have left together." Inuyasha said as he took Kagome's hands in his. "That's all we can do." He said before kissing her on the forehead.
Kagome let out a small sniffle. "OK." She sniffled, trying to get herself to stop crying.
And for the rest of the night, Inuyasha held her in his arms as she slowly cried herself to sleep in his arms.
