This is a one-shot. It's kind of sad. I was listening to this song and this story popped into my head.

Disclaimer: I am duckgirl566, NOT RUMIKO TAKAHASHI! I do not own Inuyasha!

I also do not own this song. Sarah McLachlan does.


That's it. Game over. We're done.

Heaven bend to take my hand
and lead me through the fire
be the long awaited answer
to a long and painful fight

We fought valiantly. We killed the evil that was Naraku. We completed the Shikon no Tama. We did what we set out to do.

Truth be told I've tried my best
but somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

I got so caught up in this fight. I dropped out of school. I lost the friendships in my era. I have no life on the other side of the well. Not that I could get back anyway. I tried to go back. The well wouldn't work. I'll never go back home again. I have nothing.

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
so don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

Sango and Miroku left me. Kohaku died, and Sango ran off. We were all so scared she was going to kill herself. Miroku followed her. I haven't seen them since.

Inuyasha, the love of my life, is searching for her. Kikyo. I must honor my promise. Bull. You don't have to leave me. You don't have to go to hell. I love you Kagome. And I always will. She is nothing compared to you. So then why must you go with her? I must honor my- Yea, whatever.

We all begin with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past could be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I've held so dear.

It all seemed so noble. Naraku was a wrong. We would be the right. What fools we were.

Well, now I'm alone. I've lost everything. These wounds will never heal.

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
so don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

Heaven bend to take my hand

Heaven, where are you?
Nowhere left to turn

I have no were to go.
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
to everyone I know

My friends left me.
Oh they turn their heads embarrassed
Pretend that they don't see

The village offers no comfort. I know they all blame me. How could they not?
But it's one missed step
one slip before you know it
and there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
so don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

I messed up
Better I should know
so don't come round here
and tell me I told you so...

"Kagome?" I look up and see your face.

"Inu…Yasha?"

"It's me Kagome. I killed Kikyo. I found Miroku and Sango. We're waiting for you."

I sigh. "You once told me you would never let me fall. I never believed it Inuyasha."

"Yea, guess I told you so, huh?"


See? Please review. I like nice reviews, but I'll accept flames if you have them.
