Ch.22

Kagome

As I came awake I found my self in my friend's warm arms. I knew I was crying but yet I could not seem to find the will to stop the flow of the damming tears. What the hell had just happen, how could it be me and what was it? I had so many questions flowing through my muddled brain. I slide my clawed hands into Inuyasha fire rat Kimono. I felt his arms slide around me.

Inuyasha

As I held Kagome in my arms the vision of Kikyou as she had vanished came back into my mind. I knew it was not truly her even though she carried the appearance of her. Something in my heart told she was not the Kikyou I knew. The flashes of golden eyes had caught me by surprise, but at that moment I felt Kagome small hands pull me closer to her and all thought fled.

Makura

I felt the young Miko distress way before I walk into the large chamber and I had also smelled the scent of the hanyou I was starting to truly care for and new in my heart he was starting to care for me, even though I knew he would never truly get over the young Miko I held no anger toward her.

I had felt the air shift and the presence of a great evil that was when I knew I had to see if my help was needed, but as I enter the large chamber I felt my heart slide to a stand still as my site landed on the huge canopy bed that was in the center of the room.

I felt a single tear slide down my cheek as the image of Inuyasha holding a very distraught Miko in his arms. I watched as his muscular arms pulled her closer but at that moment with my ken eye sight I watched his noise twitch as he pick up my scent and the scent of my pain. I turned and ran quickly down the hall way hoping that I could keep my hurt and pain deep inside my now hollow heart.

Inuyasha

I turned my head and found Makura quickly leaving the chambers doorway. I felt Kagome small hand on my cheek. I turned my golden eyes back to hers as she started to speak.

" Inuyasha you must go to her, she cares for you and I know you care for her as well do not let your pride get in your way, please Inuyasha don't. I can smell her tears from here."

I felt my body tense up at the thought of caring for some one else I shook my head violently and pulled away from her.

" No, I don't I could not ."

I felt her warm hands grab mine as I pulled more away and stood up from the bed .

" Inuyasha, I see it in your eyes you care for her do not hold back because…. Because"

I watched her bow her head as more tears slide down her cheeks some how I knew she was thinking of my half brother. I started to step toward her, but she quickly raised her head and look me in the eyes and raised her right palm toward me off.

" Inuyasha listen to me, do not think you are the only one who has loved and lost you are not I have to, but even knowing what I know now I would not have walk away from Sesshoumaru. Because to be able to share the love that I shared with him even for one moment is worth this pain. So Inuyasha my advice to you is to go to her because I know you love her, and if you don't you are not the hanyou I though you were."

I felt my golden eyes narrow if she had been a man and not the friend she was I would have challenged her at that moment, but she was Kagome and I knew she was speaking from her fragile heart, and I also knew I had to go and if I had been honest with my self that had been my planes all along. I walk toward my friend and pulled her into my arms and whisper.

" Thank you Kagome."

I pulled quickly away feeling kind of odd due to the show of such emotion I turned quickly and left the room.

Makura

I closed my haunted glowing eyes to that of the warm golden sun as I fell to my knees, and the scent of Rin's beautiful garden took over my mind. I raised my head knowing I was no longer alone in this beautiful Eden.

" Inuyasha what do you want, I wish to be alone."

I turned slowly to meet the down cast eyes of the hanyou feeling his desire to speak to me but yet I felt that he did not know how.

" Inuyasha I know you love her…"

I watched in amazement as the golden eyes of the hanyou I knew I had come to love raised up and look into my eyes. I tried to look away but in a blink of an eye I felt my self pulled into his strong muscular arms I felt his heart beat mix with mine as if they where my own. I turned my eyes up to meet his and caught my breath.

" Makura yes I love Kagome, but as a friend nothing more not know not when…"

I felt my arms tighten around him waiting for the words I so wanted to hear.

" Not when what Inuyasha."

" Not since I met you Makura, when I first met Kikyou I thought I knew love do to the peace she seem to radiate toward me the kindness that no one else had ever shown me. Then Kagome I believe part of me fell for her due to the fact she does look like Kikyou, but also do to the fact she is Kagome I know that is a odd thing to say but that is the one way to describe her. But Makura you are a rock, you are…."

" It's ok Inuyasha you do not have to say anything I understand now."

I knew then that he loved me not only by the way his arms tighten around me or the beautiful warm golden look to his eyes, but it radiate of him. I felt my self smile as I raised up and kissed him. His lips where the lips any demon female would wish to kiss. The flames started in my toes and moved upward. I slide my fangs down and nibble on his sexy bottom lip and mewed softly as his tongue beg for sweet entrance. I found my hands tangle in his long white tresses and I felt his hands and claws glad down to my bottom as he pulled me gentle to him.

It was at that moment I felt the evil, the evil that I had felt before I felt Inuyasha tense and slightly pull around. That was the moment the piercing scream lit the air.

Kagome

I knew Inuyasha had final found some one who could love him the way he needed and deserved. I slide my arms around my stomach thinking once again of my lost mate. I closed my golden eyes praying for everything to be alright. As my eyes opened and the smell of evil slide into my noise. The sight in front of me I realized may answer my prayers or may make me wish my death I felt the blood red tears and my screams lit the air.
