Following Me
I do not own Inuyasha. D:

Closed Door To The Well
(also known as "Naraku's Cursed Spell")
RAMEN! CLICHÉ!

Oh Kami.

I can't deal with this.

Not right now.

"I must be so out of line to ask you this, Kikyou . . . but please, keep Miroku and Sango occupied for awhile . . . I can't go back, not yet anyway. Please do me this favor."

For what reason? So you can leave me? So I can become the new detector, and nothing more . . . ? Am I just your little toy, your messenger, your servant? Act all you want, give me the attention you think I need, it won't work on me. I'm solid, I'm not as gullible as some.

But you need . . . you need someone.

Because the one that was around you—24/7—is gone.

"I'll keep them company."

That's all I can offer.

You screwed me over once . . . I'm not letting it happen again, no matter what.

But that doesn't mean I can just abandon you when you need me the most. . . .

Why? I always want him to want me, to love ME, and when he does—it is not satisfying. What is so wrong?

Don't break.

Inuyasha neared the sacred well he'd traveled through so many times. He continued to tell himself not to break, continue on, get it done. If he didn't tell her parents . . . who knows what would happen. Yes, the situation was bad, but without his cooperation with himself, nobody would ever get through this disaster.

Keep yourself together. . . .

But, Kami . . . I miss her already. I . . . I missed her before she was even gone.

Just . . . jump in. Go for it!

Inuyasha closed his eyes and jumped off the edge of the well.

Thud.

What was that? Surely not me . . . of course I can still get through the well, what am I thinking?

But he was wrong. Inuyasha looked down only to see that he was still, in fact, staring at dirt. Kagome's bloody body got soaked in the rain and his tears. Now what was he to do? Have a stupid funeral? There's no way. I am not having a funeral for her.

But . . . I can't just leave her. So what do I do?

I guess we're having a funeral.

He was going to jump out and find the gang again, but things did not go as planned. A horrible pain struck his back. He thought he could take anything but for some reason, this really, really hurt. As if he was a hurt dog he whimpered in the rain and bent over from the pain.

"Ack . . . "

He absorbed it enough to take the time to gently set her down, but immediately afterwards he dropped and lay on the ground. Every time the pain came back he struggled a little and tried to contain himself from screaming.

What is this?

I've never felt like this before.

"Kagura."

"What do you need me for now?" she mumbled under her breath. The constant calling had gotten annoying but she didn't make it clear, seeing as Naraku would crush her if he heard.

"It's starting, it worked. Go get him while he's down," Naraku muttered, like the evil demon he was. "Finish him off. Inuyasha's at his last point right now—go kill him for me. If he's so easy a target right now, why should I do the work?" Kagura spat at him in her mind but nodded in reality.

We'll see who gets the last laugh when I let him go, Naraku . . . give me the time and your plan will fail miserably.

To do so I'll need to make sure Kanna doesn't get in my way.

For a moment she stood against a wall only an inch away from the entrance to the room where Naraku was. She listened to him talk to himself for a minute before exiting.

"After successfully killing that girl . . . this might finally end."
