A/N: I also love dream sequences! I love how they give foreshadowing & irony to a story!
Chapter 2
Kagome battled inside herelf-her own soul waging a war and giving her painful flashbacks and nightmares.
---Kagome's Dream----
Kagome stood in the middle of a snowy forest. Large bundles of snow poured out of the sky as she looked through the snow-covered trees. "Inuyasha? Where are you? Inuyasha? " She called out catiously.She walked slowly, she hugged her arms to her body-not for warmth, but comfort-strangely the snow wasn't cold. She found herself wearing something strange that resembled Sango's exterminating outfit-but she hardly noticed as she came up to a lake. She tasted something metallic on her lips, licking it slightly, then touching it tenderly with a hand to find crimson liquid. "Blood...?" Kagome kneeled in the snow at the edge of the lake-she looked into the still water which had yet to freeze and found that she had a cut lip-but it passed off in her mind when she saw a ripple form-then the reflection of someone on the other side of the lake. Her head tilted up slowly to find herself gazing into the ember eyes of her hanyou-but her face gave a pained look. "Inu...yasha..." was all that she could bear to speak the moment she caught sight of Inuyasha proudly standing by Kikyo's side on the other side of the lake-which seemed to be a forest in the summer. The hanyou's eyes poured out regret as he stared at Kagome. "NO! You can't leave me! You can't leave me here like this! YOU PROMISED!" Kagome picked herself up in a desperate attempt to get to him, but it was in vain-she couldn't reach him-the lake was the barrier between the seasons-she was stuck in winter, and he in summer. His lips mouthed the words 'I'm sorry' as his eyes glassed over-no words were spoken, but Kagome's heart heard him clearly. "No...Inuyasha...don't leave me...PLEASE! Don't..." Kagome's eyes filled with tears as she let herself drop to her knees-pleading with the hanyou to return to her. She watched as he disappeared into the shadows of the sunny trees- and suddenly she felt cold. Tears streamed down as she slowly heard a voice calling her.
---out-----
Kagome's lips uttered "You promised." before her eyes even fluttered open. Then she sat straight up, her head swimming a moment. "A dream? It was all a dream?" Kagome didn't have time to ponder before Sango came in-trying to calm her down onto her back again.Kagome noted how physically exhausted Sango seemed, her eyes looked tired-as if she were crying all morning, and her voice sounded faint. Miroku came with Sango-carrying a towel and water. "We were worried about you Kagome...you've been out for a couple days..." Miroku also looked exhausted and this deepened Kagome's concerns. "I'm sorry...Sango...where is Inuyasha?" Kagome asked innocently, watching as tears threatened Sango's eyes. Kagome's fears grew with each moment-until they were realized when she searched Miroku for an answer. "I'm sorry Kagome-" the monk pointed to a shadowed corner of Kaede's hut. Kagome ran to Inuyasha's body which was piled on a stack of hay.His kimono was ripped and stained with blood and poison, his face still held on to a few smudges of dirt. His eyes were closed, as if resting peacefully, but when Kagome sobbed into his chest, there was no rising to his chest, and no rythmic beating of his heart to comfort her. "-he died last night after being unconscious from Naraku's poison-he never woke up once after the hit..." Miroku's words fell on deaf ears as he gently pulled her away from the body. Kagome could no longer hear anything that made sense to her. She couldn't speak, her words left her and all she could do was breathe. She couldn't feel-fire was no longer warming and there was no greater pain than the one she harbored inside. She watched with a blank stare as the funeral for Inuyasha came and went. She place flowers on his grave which consisted of a large stone that had been rolled up near the Goshimboku tree in Inuyasha's forest.
She hated Inuyasha for leaving her-for choosing Kikyo, for choosing death over her. She felt the bitterness well up inside her everytime she thought of him walking away silently with Kikyo. Everytime she saw his grave all she could think of was how she despised him for breaking his promise. She gripped the rosary she had taken from Inuyasha, it was wrapped around her wrist and up to her hand, much like Miroku's prayer beads.She also held his sword-he had taken Tetsusiaga o keep it safe-in case a certain grave robber felt like having it to himself. She thought of going home-but it came and went as she decided it was best for her to be here.
She stood in front of Inuyasha's grave-a week had passed by and she still despised him. Tears burned in the back of her throat as she watched him mouth 'I'm sorry' from the lakeshore. "Sorry? You were sorry for breaking a promise that you never intended to keep? It was empty-You never wanted to choose me-you always wanted Kikyo..." Her mouth spat out the name like it was something horribly disgusting. "I will forget you Inuyasha...but I will never forgive you..." Kagome walked away from the site with a bitter cold countenance-as cold as the snow in her dreams.
