Inuyasha awoke in Kaede's hut, thought he remembered falling asleep by the well. Wait… where is everybody? Thought Inuyasha, looking around, This isn't Kaede's hut! Where the hell am I-

"Inuyasha," said a voice from outside, "You are awake, are you not?" Inuyasha sat up, Kikyou, Inuyasha stood and walking outside.

"Kikyou," he whispered, "W-what are you doing here?" Inuyasha looked around, "What am I doing here?"

"I found you sleeping, and took you here," said Kikyou, "You looked rather uncomfortable by that old well." Kikyou stepped towards him, "Are you not glad to see me, Inuyasha?" whispered Kikyou, inches away from him, "Hmm, Inuyasha? Or have you gone mute?" Kikyou's hand drifted up to Inuyasha's face, holding his cheek with her hand, stroking his chin. "Inuyasha," she whispered, again, her other hand resting on his chest. She leaned up to kiss him, hovering her lips right below his. "Will you not speak, Inuyasha? Is it that pathetic girl Kagome that keeps you from showing your feelings?" Inuyasha looked into Kikyou's eyes, Kagome. "Well, if that is the case, you need not worry about her anymore," said Kikyou, before letting out a short laugh. Inuyasha's ears twitched.

"What do you mean?" he asked, pulling away from her. Kikyou stepped closer,

"What do I mean? I think you know what I mean Inuyasha. Let's just say I ran into Kagome and her little wolf friend on my way here," replied Kikyou, smiling. She leaned up to kiss him again, "so there is nothing to keep you from me anymore Inuyasha, nothing to worry about." Kikyou stood on her toes, her mouth advancing slowly to his. Seconds before they touched, Inuyasha turned his head, and Kikyou kissed him on the cheek. The sour taste of fear filled Inuyasha's mouth, and his limbs went cold.

"What did you do to Kagome, Kikyou?"

"…Must you know?" she asked, playing with his patience.

"Yes." Inuyasha faced Kikyou again and looked her in the eyes, Kikyou returned his stare.

"I shot her," she answered, "right above the heart." Kikyou turned and walked away from Inuyasha, "She'll be dead by now."

Inuyasha fell to his knees, hatred and confusion welling in his heart and soul, Kagome is… dead? Kikyou killed… Kagome… she's… A tear fell down Inuyasha's face, followed by many more. His heart seemed to shatter into a million pieces, only one section remained full: the part of his heart harboring his love for Kikyou; the part that warded off the ominous anger he felt towards her, stopping him from running after her and slicing her to bits. Inuyasha slowly raised his head to the sky, as the rain began to fall. It fell in waves, washing away his tears, but worsening his feelings. It seemed that for every raindrop another piece of his soul died, until there was almost nothing of him left.

"KAGOME!" screamed Inuyasha, before collapsing into a heap on the ground.
