Disclaimer-i do not own Inuyasha...

Chapter 7-A Twist Of Fate

Kagome tried to make herself calm down, but it didn't seem to help. Then, something happened to her when the shards glowed more vibrant. She felt as if she could now run, or do something.

"What do you want?" she asked, trying to make it sound as if she wasn't scared. But she was, and she knew this.

"You," he sneered down at her evilly. His eyes never leaving hers, not for one second.

Kagome took a step away from him, and almost tripped. But she caught her self, and out of now where started to run.

"Inuyasha!' she cried out, completely forgetting Inuyasha wasn't there anymore.

"He wont come for you!' he cried out to her, as he leaping into the air and landed right in front of her. "He cant hear you, I'm pretty sure that damned Hanyou went with that damned women already,"

This got Kagome mad, and she tried to get away from him.

"Naraku!" She yelled out, as if she was almost growling it.

Inuyasha came to a stop when seeing Kiyou. He slowly walked up to her, and was greeted by her smile. But for some reason it wasn't the smile that made him happy. It was a smile that made him nervous, and think that he shouldn't be here right now. And he shouldn't have, this he knew perfectly clear.

"Inuyasha…" Kikyou said as she walked up to him. She placed a hand on his cheek, and smiled at him once again.

"I'm glad you picked me Inuyasha…I was actually thinking that you would have picked Kagome…" Kikyou said as if it were a bad thing.

Inuyasha didn't look at Kikyou. He wanted to turn back, he wanted to be with Kagome.

"Kikyou," he said grabbing her hand and pulling it away from his cheek. "if I am to go with you, then bring me down to hell with you now!" he said a bit demanding.

"Come with me…" Naraku said taking a hold of Kagome.

Kagome immediately tried to fight back, but Naraku only pulled on her arm harder and before she knewit she was up in the air, being held by Naraku. Only moments later did he stop and place her down on the hard grown. He had placed her on top of a small mountain, and was now pointing down to something. Kagome was able to make it out as if it were something about to destroy the world. And it wasn't going to destroy the world she lived in, but her world and how she lived it.

It was Inuyasha. He was holding Kikyou tightly, and Kikyou was holding him back. Inuyasha had seemed to be out cold, as if he was in a deep sleep. Kagome new it was about to happen, Inuyasha was going to completely disappear from her life. Unless she were to do something about it. But she wasn't going to, she wasn't going to interfere with Inuyasha anymore. If this is what he wanted, then so be it.

"You love him so much, why are you just standing here and watching him leave your life?" Naraku asked.

Kagome didn't answer him. She just kept watching Inuyasha leave her life little by little. Why was it that she had just stayed her and watched the one she loved leave. She should have stopped it, she should have fought for Inuyasha. But then at the same time, she thought it was wrong, like it was a cruel thing.

The minutes passed and Kagome hadn't moved a muscle. She just watched as the remaining of Kikyou and Inuyasha had finally vanished from site, from the earth, from the her life.

A sudden sadness took her over, and she turned around to see that Naraku had left. Why had he brought her here? Was it so she could watch the one she love leave her? Or was it something else? These questions passed threw her mind, but then quickly left when she realized that it was to late. Inuyasha was gone, he had left. And he wasn't coming back.

She almost fell to the floor, but instead she kept herself up. A sudden tear slipped down her cheek, and she broke into running. She ran all the way down the small mountain, passed Kaede's village, and up to the bone eaters well. Not once did she stop, and not once did she think about turning back and saying goodbye to anyone. Inuyasha had hurt her. Torn her heart into pieces, and she didn't want to be at the place anymore. Not again.

She leaned over the side of the well and went to go jump in when something stopped her. She looked over to her side. There it was. The god tree. The very place Kagome had first ever met Inuyasha, and the very first place her whole life had changed. It was because of the well, and the tree that Kagome had met Inuyasha. She had never regretted meeting Inuyasha, never. Not even now when he had left her like she was a piece of garbage.

She slowly walked over to the tree and placed a hang on it. She ran her hand up and over the spot where there was no bark due to Inuyasha being sealed there a little more then 50 years ago. She had fallen in love with someone that could never return her love.

"Inuyasha…" she said to herself.

At that moment on the tree where Kagome's hand was, and now bark had grown, it had become warm. Like someone was still there. Kagome looked at it, but nothing or not one was there. Only the heat of something, or someone.

Kagome thought for a moment, then she realized it.

Inuyasha. It was him. It was as if he were still on the tree, and as if Kagome was seeing him once again for the very first time. She kept her hand in the same spot, but closed her eyes and let the tears that had been hanging of the ledges of her eyes slid down her cheeks and hit the floor.

"You were the only one who ever made me feel like I could so much more then I had thought. You were also the only one who kept me believing in myself. I thought I would never have to see a day without you in it. But I was wrong as I can see now. And maybe I was also wrong to fall in love with you. And keep coming back to this place. I think I will go back and not say a word to the others. Maybe they will do better without me Inuyasha. Its obvious that you can do better without me."

Kagome reopened her eyes and looked up at the tree. She smiled faintly before she turned around and looked over towards the well. If she were to leave, she wouldn't want to come back. But she would be able to if she would just bring the shards back with her, right?

"No, I cant come back to this place. It brings back to many painful memories…"

She left her lifeless feet drag her over to the well, and there she sat. She didn't look down the well, or up at the sky. She didn't look at the ground, or in front of her. Instead, she looked into her heart. She searched there, looking for the right choice. She had to choose either to leave everyone, and never come back. Or stay with everyone, and just keep going after Naraku like they had been doing with Inuyasha.

Before long, Kagome's decision came to her. She turned her body around so her feet were hanging over the ledge of the well, and she took no time to use her arms to hoist her down into the well. It was clear to her now. She wouldn't be able to come to this place anymore. Specially if Inuyasha wasn't going to be here anymore. She had no reason to come, so she thought.

Inuyasha's eyes opened slightly, then fully. He looked around, it was dark, and yet red. He couldn't see much, but he could sense death. It was everywhere. Even on himself. He was…dead. He had sacrificed his life just so he could be with Kikyou. But…now he was regretting it. Kagome, she was there. She was everywhere in his mind. Why wouldn't she leave?

"Inuyasha," someone called out to him. "come here Inuyasha…"

It was Kikyou. But for some reason, when she called his name. It did not sooth him, but made him feel the pain of loosing Kagome.

"Inuyasha, are you happy to be with me?" Kikyou asked.

Inuyasha squinted his eyes to try and see her. And before long he spotted her. She reeked of death. Something Inuyasha couldn't stand to smell. She was dead, he knew that.

"I guess…" Inuyasha said, finally being able to think of something to say.

Kikyou stood to her feet and walked over to Inuyasha. She placed her hand on his cheek, and pulled him down into a gentle kiss that Inuyasha did not enjoy one bit. He was regretting it so much. He didn't think he could actually start hating being with Kikyou. When he was on earth, he wanted to be with her more then anything. But now, he wanted her to go away. Not return to his site. He now knew he had made the wrong choice, and if he could he would change it more then anything.

Kagome had been looking threw a picture book. She had once brought a camera to the feudal era, and was looking at all the pictures of her friends. Some of the pictures of were totally nothing, just pictures that he friends had taken when looking at the camera. But one, and only one was her favorite. It was of Inuyasha. He was sleeping under the god tree, and his hair had been blowing right at the exact moment Kagome had taken the picture. She thought he had always looked wonderful in the picture.

Standing to her feet, she shoved the picture into a book that she never used. Just so she wouldn't have to see the picture again. Then, she shoved the photo album into her somewhere she wouldn't be able to find it.

1 Year Later-

Kagome grabbed her books to go and stake them in the corner of her room. But in the process something had dropped out and landed on the floor. Not really taking much thought to this, she picked it up and flipped it over to see what it was. But the moment her eyes had made contact with what it was, the paper had hit the floor. Her hand was over her mouth, and her heart had been pounding incredibly fast.

Without warning tears had built up in her eyes, and slid down her cheeks. She had thrown that picture in there a year ago. And she had thought that everything that had happened to her was in her past. But now, seeing that very picture of Inuyasha had did something to her. She quickly ran over to her closet and started throwing everything every where. She didn't care that something had just now hit her lamp and shattered it into tiny little pieces. Or that one of her huge textbooks had just knocked over her t.v. Or that a shoe had just knocked everything off her dresser. She just needed to find one thing.

Then, when she had finally found what she was looking for she wiped it out of her closet as if it were the only thing to save her life. She sat back with the black photo album on her lap, and opened it carefully as if it were a bomb. Then, she smiled slightly and started looking at every single one of the pictures. She flipped threw all of them, laughing at most of the ones her friends had taken. Then she stopped at one.

It was her, and Inuyasha. They had been fighting like usual, but it still made her smile. And more tears had come to her eyes. She ran her finger over the picture, then lifted the one of Inuyasha up.

She thought she had gotten over him. She thought that her staying away from him for this long would get her mind off him. She had actually started to forget about him, and was getting back to her regular life. But now when she looked at the picture, the only thing she wanted to do was to go back Inuyasha and everyone else. But Inuyasha had been with Kikyou, and lord knows where everyone else was. And what they would say to her.

She stood to her feet, looked around her room and sighed as she now saw the mess she had made. Not really caring she grabbed a black pair of pants, and a red top. She changed quickly, then started shuffling threw her drew. Only five seconds later did she find the shards she had kept with her all this time. Then she ran down her steps and outside, and over to the well house. She swung open the door, and ran down towards the well.

She didn't jump in, only stood there and looked down. She wanted to go, but at the same time she didn't. One part of her was begging her to go, and the other was holding her back. She placed her legs over the side of the well, and before she knew it she had…
