Sitting in the God Tree. Inuyasha was staring blankly across the barren cold land. He felt weird. As if something horrible was going to happen. He shuddered, remembering that he had this feeling when he agreed to make Kikyou his mate. He sighed, Kagome, when would he have enough courage to tell her. I'll do it today, he thought, I have to. He stood and heard the sounds of Shippou's laughter.

Inuyasha's golden eyes scanned the forest looking for the kit. He spotted something red. Kikyou...

The girl he was supposed to love. The girl he gave up everything for... Kagome... he gave up Kagome for Kikyou.

Sango would be mad, Inuyasha understood this. But, Kagome deserved so much better than a hanyou. She deserved someone who could keep their promises. Someone who wasn't still tied down by the past. That's why he made Kikyou his mate. To make it so no matter what he wanted he couldn't have Kagome, and no matter what Kagome wanted, she couldn't have him.

Inuyasha jumped down, saw Shippou craddled in the dead pristesses arms. Wondering just why the kit had seemed to have deserted his adopted mother. Wondering just how she got him under her spell. Inuyasha sighed, that would be a mystery for another day.

"Inuyasha," Kikyou's toneless voice called to him. Trying to draw Inuyasha from his thoughts.

"Yes, Kikyou, What is it?"

Kikyou smiled, "Shippou and I were wondering if you would like to come in and have some hot soup."

Inuyasha turned away, "No. I'd rather be alone a little while."

Kikyou's eyes took on a hard look, "It's about her. Is it not?"

Regrettfully Inuyasha nodded. Kikyou just turned and walked back to Kaede's hut. Inuyasha looked behind him to watch her go. Did he make the right choice? Of course, he reasured himself. He will sacrifice his happiness for Kagome's.

It was time he found Kagome and told her. Told her his reason, and finally sent her home. Back to where she belonged. Inuyasha sniffed the air trying to pick up the girl from the future's scent. Smelling it at the end of the valley, Sango's scent was there as well.

Inuyasha took off. Jumping from branch to branch. As he got closer, a he felt as if his heart was crumbling inside of him. He didn't know what the feeling was, it seemed to crush his heart. Kagome, came to his mind. He picked up his pace. Reaching the valley he jumped down. He scanned the valley. It looks so fragile, Inuyasha thought absently, almost as if you tried to reach out and touch it. It would shatter.

Inuyasha saw a figure kneeling at the edge of the cliff... Sango... but where Kagome, he pondered. Glancing around confused. He walked slowly up to Sango, and saw tears streaming down her face. Her eyes seem to be focusing on some distant place, that he could never see.

He touched her shoulder gently, "Sango.." He whispered gently.

Sango turned her eyes locking onto his face. Inuyasha backed away at the look of hatred that settled on Sango's face once she realized it was him, "You... it's all your fault." She jumped at him.

Inuyasha grabbed Sango's hands to prevent her from punching him no matter what he did Sango just seemed to be getting more hysterical screaming, "YOUR FAULT."

"What's my fault?" Inuyasha asked quietly he ears flat against his head.

Sango ripped her hand out of his grasp, ignoring the cuts she recieved from his claws, "Look around, Inuyasha what do you see?"

Inuyasha looked around, "Snow... I see snow."

"Really? I see a grave."

Confused Inuyasha just stared at her, "Sango, are you feeling okay? There's no grave here, enless it is buried beneath the snow"

Sango grinned emptily, "No, this is the grave of my sister." She pointed to the cliff, tears forming in her eyes again.

"I didn't know you had a sister." Inuyasha peered over the cliff, "How'd she die?"

"She died of a broken heart."

Inuyasha glanced at her, his eyes searching hers. The forbading feeling swept of him. He felt as if he had just lost something that could never be brought back. Forgetting about Sango's sister Inuyasha asked, "Where's Kagome?"

Sango just looked at him blank, and pointed at the cliff.

Inuyasha's heart was racing, "You said your sister died there. Now where's Kagome?"

"Inuyasha, you fool. Kagome's my sister, and you broke her heart."

Helpless, that's how Inuyasha felt, he wasn't here to protect her. Protect her from herself. He smelled the air. Hoping beyond belief that the scent of Kagome lead anywhere but off the cliff. He felt numb inside, her scent lead straight of the edge. She was gone. She left him.

"Sango, how?" He looked to Sango pleading.

"She killed herself."

Inuyasha was devestated, she killed herself because of me, he thought. Wait, Sango didn't stop her, a voice in his head said. She didn't stop her from dying, she had to have been here. She had to have been. Inuyasha was enraged, "WHY DIDNT YOU STOP HER?"

"I did."

Inuyasha growled, "If you had she sould still be here."

Inuyasha gripped Sango's shoulders painful. Sango didn't care, she stared out at the endless landscape of white. Kagome... she thought.. she missed Kagome. Sango's mind came back to her as she stared at the face of the hanyou. The hanyou who killed her friend.

"You killed her Inuyasha."

"I didn't... I didn't... It was for her, I wanted her to be happy. I loved her." Inuyasha seemed be trying to convince himself. A cold icy wind blew making him shiver.

"She's happy dead... You know, I grabbed her wrist. I tired to stop her."

Inuyasha let go of Sango shocked. Kagome was gone. Truly gone, and Sango did try to save her. Inuyasha turned away from the demon exterminator. Tears came to his eyes. The only one who could now be blamed for Kagome's death was him. Sango was here, when he was not. Sango started to walk away from him. Heading back to Miroku.

"Sango..." Inuyasha called she stopped and looked at him, "How did she fall then?" He had to know he needed to know. How she fell when Sango had grabbed her wrist.

Sango continued on her way, "She was so broken. I couldn't let her go on like that. She begged me, to let her be free."

"Sango, please just tell me. How did she fall?"

The figure of Sango stopped and turned to face Inuyasha. Her eyes distant flooding with tears. "I let go..."
