Love Is Like Bullets, They Kill.
I blinked up at the bright light that beckoned me to it. It was calling my name with a voice that was sweet and full of laughter. I ran towards the light and came to a stop when I felt the ground shift from under me. I gasped and knew that I had fallen from whatever I had been on.
"Kagome…" the voice cried out, "you have been a very bad girl. You killed your daughter and husband because you wanted Kaiya to grow up in your time. You sentenced them to death, Kagome," the voice said in a song like voice.
I sobbed and shook my head. "I never meant to. I just wanted Kaiya to grow up in a safer place. I didn't want to loose her," I replied and felt myself fly through the air.
There was sudden silence after my reply and my bones began to shake. I suddenly couldn't breath. I felt like I was being strangled.
"You killed Kaiya!" the voice said in a booming voice.
"I would never. I loved Kaiya," I gasped out.
I suddenly hit ground and air rushed back into my lungs. I looked around and saw what I had hoped I wouldn't see. Fire. I was in a place that not even demons wanted to be in. I had descended to hell.
"You shall burn in hell for your actions, Kagome. You killed two people that you loved because you thought you were doing the right thing. Silly, Kagome," the voice laughed.
I suddenly screamed and felt a hot white pain shoot through my back. I twisted around and started into the eyes of the very thing I feared.
oOo
I felt something hit my chest and my eyes opened slowly. Kagome's scent hit me before I saw her gorgeous raven colored hair on my chest. I moved and she cried out suddenly. I touched her arm and leaned over her a bit. My brows came together as I stared into her pain filled eyes.
She whispered my name and closed the eyes that I had been waiting to see for what seemed like centuries. I felt my gut twist as I heard her sigh. I looked at her and expected her to take another breath, but she didn't.
"Kagome?" I said in a high, frightened voice.
I leaned up and cradled her in my lap. Her head leaned back and her body was limp against my chest. I shook her gently, but nothing happened.
"KAGOME!" I yelled and shook her harder.
I touched her cheek and a sob escaped my mouth. I looked down the length of her body and found two holes in her stomach that where bleeding terribly. I sobbed and put my hand over one of the wounds.
"Why?" I sobbed and rocked back and forth, tears filling my eyes and spilling down my cheeks.
I crushed my precious Kagome to my chest and cried. I closed my eyes and yelled her name again. I prayed to god that if he could let me live, that I would protect Kagome with my life and never let her out of my site…But she died before I even got to tell her good-bye.
"InuYasha?" a husky voice asked from above me.
I opened my eyes and looked up at a bulky form that had a gun hanging limply in his left hand. My anger flared. I knew then that the son-of-a-bitch had killed my Kagome.
"You," I growled.
"You have to save her," the man coughed and fell to his knees.
I brows came together in confusion. "What do you mean?" I asked in a snarl.
He coughed again and blood splattered the ground. I looked closer at the man and saw that the man was holding his stomach. He was bleeding from a bullet wound. My eyes widened and I looked down at Kagome.
"She tried to kill you. Why?" I asked sharply and looked up at the man.
He laughed harshly. "I don't know. All I know is that she turned and put a bullet into my stomach and I her. She was suffering from your death and I knew that she would rather be with you then here. You would have both been happy in hell," he said with a bloody grin.
"I wasn't in hell," I said softly and looked down at Kagome. There was rain drops covering her face.
"What?" he asked and coughed again.
"I never went to hell. Where ever I was…I was happy. I knew that Kagome was safe. It was peaceful there," I said louder and stared at Kagome's closed eyes.
I looked around and noticed that I was in a five foot hold and in a black coffin. I looked up at the guy and realized that this was my grave. I had thought that I had died years ago. But it was only days.
I put my arms around Kagome and stood up carefully. My legs were stiff and my neck hurt a bit, but I was functional. I bent my knees a bit and pushed off the bottom of the coffin and landed on the muddy ground beside my muddy grave. I looked at the gravestone and read my name.
"So…so you were in heaven?" the man asked as I looked over at him.
I saw now who the man was and sighed. It had been the guy that had been madly in love with my Kagome for years. Hojo. I nodded and could tell by the amount of blood he was coughing up that Kagome's bullet did a lot of damage to him. He was going to die.
"So she's down there all alone?" he asked and stared at the bloody mess near his knees.
My eyes widened and I looked down at Kagome's lifeless body. She was in hell while I was stuck in a place that reminded me more of hell then it had before.
OOo
Well, you guys asked for me to continue it, so I decided to. I'm not sure I like this though. I really wanted it to stay a one-shot, but I'll see how this goes. Well, send me those lovely reviews that I love to receive. Until next chapter…if there is any…Tschus. (german-bye)
