Sorry about the wait but I've been kinda tied up. Actually, I got all 4 of my Wisdom teeth pulled out and I just got to get on the computer now. Thischapter has actually been sitting in my documents but it wouldn't upload on the website for some reason. I hope you excuse any spelling mistakes cause I haven't had time to look over this chapter. Anyway here you go! Don't forget to review ;)

THE-REAL-MYSTIC

Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha plain and simple (but this plot's mine B!)

6 months has passed since Naraku was defeated. The jewel was whole again, Miroku and Sango were getting married, InuYasha and Kagome were mated, and both worlds were brought back to peace. InuYasha sat in the hut in his usual corner holding his Tetsuaige. But for some reason, he wouldn't speak to anyone. Kagome walked in and went over to see what was wrong.

"What's up InuYasha?"

"…"

"What's wrong? You won't talk to anyone, and you haven't eaten your Ramen."

"…"

"Well, I can see you don't want to talk about it so I'm just gonna leave you alone."

She turned to leave until she heard him mumble something that almost wasn't audible. Good thing she was developing her demon senses. She turned around when she heard 6 words from him.

"Did I…do the right thing?"

"InuYasha…tell me what's bothering you."

And in a burst of energy, InuYasha jumped up with a huge smile on his face.

"NOTHING'S WRONG KAGOME! Come on, it's a beautiful day outside, lets go for a walk."

"Um, okay. InuYasha?"

"Yeah?"

"…Never mind. Give me a minute; I need to go in the forest to get something."

"Sure."

Kagome walked into the forest to get some medical herbs for a sick villager when she came across something shocking.

"Oh my god, Kikyo what happened!"

It was Kikyo under the Sacred Tree. She was dissapering, and all that was still whole was her head but even that was disintegrating.

"In a way, I'm glad. If I had to pick who would kill me it would be him, how Ironic."

"Who did this to you?"

"I guess no matter what I do, every time I am to die I see his face."

"Hold on, I'll get…"

"Who? InuYasha? He is the one who did this to me."

Kagome literally froze when she heard that.

"Are you serious?"

"With my last bit of strength, I will show you what happened."

Flashback

"Oh, it's you InuYasha."

"…"

"I've heard a rumor that it was you who destroyed Naraku, is it true?"

"Yeah. The jewel is safe too."

"Hum…so you've mated with Kagome?"

"How did you know?"

"Your aura is mixed with hers. But it's not that that's different about you. Your outer aura is the same minus Kagome's aura. But your inner aura is different too, it's darker."

"I've come to put you to rest."

"I already know that. I could see it in your eyes."

InuYasha pulls out his Tetsuaige and stares at Kikyo.

"Before you kill me, tell me this. Did you mean it when you said you would become human for me?"

"You already know that answer."

Kikyo smiles at InuYasha's reply.

"I'm happy for you and Kagome, I really am. I hope you will protect her with more then just your life, but your soul too."

"You will always have a place in my heart Kikyo."

"With those last words, I can die a happy woman. Goodbye InuYasha, I hope you will find eternal love with my reincarnation."

InuYasha readied his sword.

"Goodbye Kikyo."

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"……Wind Scar……"

End Flashback

Kagome looked on as Kikyo blew into the wind with a farewell Kagome behind it. Kagome stood there. After a while, she smiled for Kikyo.

"She was so happy when she died. She was even glad me and InuYasha was together…Thank you Kikyo."

When Kagome returned, she saw InuYasha waiting on top of their hut.

"You find what you need Kagome?"

"Yep, now we can go."

They began walking into the forest towards the well. InuYasha knew she saw Kikyo, he could tell from the way she looked and smelled.

"Kagome?"

"Yeah InuYasha?"

"I love you."

(Smile) "I love you too."

They then kissed under the morning sun, enjoying the peace and quiet.

A Few Days Later

Kagome awoke in hers and InuYasha's hut only to find that she was alone in bed. She rose up and looked outside wondering just where her mate InuYasha was. After putting on some clothes she headed out looking for him. After little searching she found him up in his usual tree sitting on the branch.

"Whatcha doin?"

"Nothing, just enjoying the view is all."

"Oh, I see."

Kagome figured he was thinking about Kikyo, but it was actually his demon side he was talking to.

"And so that's how we can get Sesshomaru to come here?"

"Yes, but he should be on his way anyway to question you about Naraku's defeat, along with that wolf. Speaking of which."

"What are you talking about? Kouga's…Kouga!"

Both Kagome and InuYasha run over to see Kouga who they thought was dead.

"Kouga! We thought you were dead!"

"It'll take more than a few gapping holes in my chest and being set on fire to stop me."

"Um…I'm not sure what to think of that. But I'm glad you're alright."

"And I appreciate the gratitude Kagome. Oh by the way, I found this little guy still breathing. At first I though he was dead but it seems he's still alive."

Kouga points to the boy hanging on his back when Kagome shouts for Sango and Miroku to see Kohaku!

"Kagome why are you yelling for…Kouga! I though you…is that…Kohaku?"

"When I woke up I found him still alive, just barely though."

"Oh my god…KOHAKU!"

"Come on Sango, if we take him to the village, Kaede might now what to do."

"Okay."

As everyone rushed to the village, InuYasha's demon side didn't like the situation.

"This isn't good. With the way that boy is, he'll surely die. And if I'm right, they'll use the jewel to revive him. Damnit! I can't let this happen."

A Few Hours Later

"I'm sorry Sango, but there is nothing I can do for the child."

"It's okay Kaede, thank you for trying."

As Kaede walked off, Kagome was hit with an idea.

"Hey Sango, what if we use the Sacred Jewel?"

"Do you think it'll work?"

"It should."

(Sango with bright smile) "Okay, let do it!"

Meanwhile

As the now transformed InuYasha listens on the conversation, his anger increases greatly.

"This isn't good. If they use the jewel now my plans are ruined. I must strike now!"

Well there you go! Hope you liked it.This chapter was basically used to resolve all the little leftover problems like Kikyo. Kouga will probably be in a future chapter.Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go look for some more gauze for my constantly bleeding mouth! I hate this. Review please!
