Miroku, Kirara, and Sango had been searching for Inuyasha since he had not returned right away. They had found no leads accept for a dead demon on the way through the forest.

"He can't have gone this far Sango. We should circle around again."
"Wait...Miroku over here! There is a trail of blood leading this way."
"You don't think it is his do you?"
"Kirara seems to think it is. Look." Kirara whimpers as she sniffs the blood.
"Lets go Sango, if we don't hurry it might be to late."
"Right, come on Kirara!" They run through the forest following the blood and come to Inuyasha passed out on the ground.
"Help me get him on Kirara, Miroku." +Miroku nods+
"Lets get him back to Kaede's village. We can patch him up there."

Later at the village Kaede patches Inuyasha up. Miroku, Sango, and Kaede talk
for a while then go to bed leaving Inuyasha alone in the hut. Inuyasha has fevered dreams all night and in the morning does not wake. Sango covers him with a blanket and tells Shippo to watch over him. Shippo does as he is told.

A week has passed and still Inuyasha had not awakened and Kagome had not returned.
Miroku, Sango, Shippo, as well as Kaede had begun to worry. It had been such along time since Inuyasha had been awake, they wondered if he would ever wake up. His wounds still did not heal; actually they did not even change. Still they remained open with occasional off and on bleeding that was not helping Inuyasha wake up. Kagome had never been gone this long before. Even when she was mad at Inuyasha she always came back with in a day or two, but not this time.

On the seventh night while everyone was sleeping Inuyasha woke up. He got up slowly and sniffed the air. He knew that Kagome had not returned her scent was dull. He knew in his heart she no longer cared for him. Inuyasha saw some training clothes beside him but they were completely black. 'Not my style, but beggars can't be choosers' (To see what I mean by training clothes go to this site http/ it was the best picture I could find!) He dressed in them and left his red pants and white shirt in their place. He found some of the paper that Kagome left for Shippo to draw on and a pen. On one of the sheets he wrote...

'Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kaede, by the time you read this message I will be gone far away. Please do not try and find me I wish to be left alone. The jewel shards that I possessed are underneath this note. I have left a note for Kagome. Sango try and get through the well to speak with Kagome. I will not return. Good-bye my dearest friends.' He left the note, and the jewel shards in the hut; he then set off for the well.

Inuyasha jumped through the well taking a piece of paper, a pen and his red haiori with him. He jumped out on the other side of the well. Sitting on the edge he wrote a letter to Kagome. It went something like this…

'Kagome I will never see you again. I have loved you and will love you always but now it is time for me to go. The jewel shards I possessed are with the others. I am leaving the village and your life. I have no one with me I am alone as it should be for I am hanyou. I will never forget you... I will always love you. Please do not try and find me, I do not wish to be found search for the shards with the others. Goodbye Kagome. Forever.
Inuyasha.'

Inuyasha left the note and his haiori on the ground in front of the well. He jumped back through to his own time leaving Kagome behind forever. (Hanyou means half demon a little off topic but all the same). He ran back through the forest along the river's edge. Stopping every so often to catch his breath and wash the cold sweat from his body in the cool water of the river. By the time sunrise arrived he had cleared his territory leaving
most of his thoughts behind him.
