Chapter 20

InuYasha followed Kagome silently to a light open meadow. She stood with her back to him, looking at the moon. "The moon is pretty tonight. It's just getting up there. It's very big…very….full." she looked back at him and InuYasha had just now looked up at the moon for the first time since they came out. She was right, it was full. "Dammit! Why didn't you tell me earlier!" InuYasha looked down at his hands and saw his claws were gone and shortened into nails. His hair was black, and his ears were human.

"I'm sorry. You wouldn't have come out with me if you knew." She said calmly.

"Damn right, I wouldn't! Come on, we got to get back to the hut."

"InuYasha, wait. I want to talk to you out here. Please? Just a few minutes." Kagome put on her best pleading eyes. She continued when InuYasha didn't walk away. "Do you remember when I promised that I wouldn't grant your wish?"

"Yes, and you promised!" he said, making sure she would remember that part too.

"Yes, InuYasha; I promised. And now, I'm so sorry I made such a promise….because I can't keep it." Kagome said this, her face saying she really was sorry.

"No! You have to keep it. Please, you can break any other promise in the world, just not that one." His human eyes were pleading and sad, knowing Kagome would argue against that.

"InuYasha, please. I can't live like this. It's a living hell without you. I see no reason to live like that."

"No…you can't…you'll die. Don't do that." InuYasha's eyes looked sad, as if he was about to cry.

"It's better to die happy than to live dying inside." She turned around, tears streaming down her face. She walked up to InuYasha and ran her fingers through his hair. "I feel that way, because…I love you InuYasha! I love you more than life itself!" she put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips. InuYasha's face looked surprised and sad at the same time. He wrapped his arms around her and held her close, returning her kiss. He knew what came next, and sure enough it happened. There was a bright pink light, glowing around Kagome. Suddenly, the pink light shot up into the air and flew off across the land. Kagome stopped glowing and fell limp in InuYasha's arms. Tears streamed down InuYasha's face as he said, "I love you too, Kagome. More than….life itself."

He sat there for what seemed like hours, but was only a few minutes. "She's gone. She's really gone." He said to himself in his head, but himself unable to believe it. He got up with Kagome in his arms. Even when he was human he was able to pick her up. "She can't be gone…she just can't be." He was now angry he couldn't protect her. "No. She can't be gone. Not if I can help it." Suddenly his eyes glowed bright red and his hair turned silver. The familiar demon marks showed up on his face. He was full demon and full of anger. He held tight to Kagome and started running through the trees after the pink light. "No! Not if I can help it!" he yelled before running as fast as he's ever run before.

Back at the hut, everyone stood in the doorway looking at a strange pink light shooting above the trees. Miroku and Shippo stared at in alarm, asking if they should check it out. Sango on the other hand, muttered to herself, "Good bye, Kagome." Her face was tearstained, and new tears were flowing down her face now. She turned to the two of them who were just about to go after the pink light. "I think its fine. InuYasha and….Kagome are out there, and they can take care of it." The two of them looked at Sango strangely, Miroku asking, "What's wrong, Sango?"

"A good friend of mine has just departed." She said sadly, wiping her tears and walking back into the hut. Shippo and Miroku exchanged confused glances and followed her into the hut.
