Chapter 4: Faint Lingering
Wind tousled Inuyasha's hair fiercely. Inuyasha's bare feet moved rapidly over the wind-swept grass, following the faint disgusting scent of Naraku.. back to the place where they had last battled.
Inuyasha skidded into a stop, dirt billowing outward. He looked around the area-
A vast dry plateau, where a few pieces of Naraku's flesh lay. Blood stained soil lay scattered around the area.
"Kagome! Sango! Miroku! Shippo! Kirara!" Inuyasha yelled frantically.
"Kagome!!!"
No trace of the miko.
"Sango!"
No trace of the Youkai Exterminator.
"Miroku!"
No trace of the lecherous monk.
"Shippo!"
No trace of the little annoying kitsune.
"Kirara!"
No trace of the ferocious fire Neko .
Inuyasha's hands clenched tightly into fists. His spun around and around, hoping to find at least a sign of where they've gone.
Blood.
Inuyasha whirled around to see a large puddle of blood that had a familiar scent to it....
"Shit!" Inuyasha cursed. This blood! ~ It was Kagome's blood!!!
"Dammit! Dammit..." The last curse faded from Inuyasha's lips as he buried his face in his hands.
'It's your fault! You know it! Why are you such an idiot! You failed to protect Kagome! .. again...'
~*~FLASHBACK~*~
'Kikyou.. where are you going!?'
Inuyasha grabbed Kikyou's arm as she turned to leave. She glared at him with narrowed eyes. She pointed an arrow point to his arm.
"Let go." She said calmly. Inuyasha's golden orbs widened in surprise.
"Kikyou, what are you doing?" He asked. A small wry smile crept to her lips.
The resurrected miko gave a quick glance over at her reincarnation- who was shooting Purifying arrows at youkai.
"Inuyasha. If I leave now, it'll probably be the last time we see eachother." Kikyou lied.
Doubt and sadness quickly dulled the hanyou's eyes.
'I can finally convince Inuyasha to follow me.. forever.'
Inuyasha looked downcast as he struggled to decide. Kikyou's eyes hardened. He was obviously thinking about his friends- about that Kagome. The revived miko turned away from Inuyasha and the others, and briskly walked off. Head held high, face showing no emotions.
Inuyasha blinked and ran after her. 'I will not lose you, Kikyou!'
"Kikyou!"
~*~FLASHBACK ENDS~*~
Inuyasha abruptly crippled over and started punching the ground with his fist.
'You-' Punch. 'Bastard-' Punch. 'How could-' Punch. 'Leave Kagome-' Punch. 'And the others-' Punch. 'Like that!?!' Punch. Punch. Punch.
Inuyasha slowly regained his position upon his feet. Bruised fist quivering slightly with fury. Only did then he found something --
That scent!
Inuyasha collapsed upon his stomach, sniffing the land rapidly. That scent..
Something tickled at the back of his memory. A quick image flashed across his eyes.
A sword.
The brother of Tetsusaiga!
Tenseiga!
Inuyasha's eyes enlarged. This same scent was upon the aura around the Healing Sword.
The clean metallic smell mingled around the pool of Kagome's blood. But.. that could only mean --
Sure enough, Inuyasha made out the scent of his older half brother- Sesshoumaru.. Faint, barely makable, but there.
"Shit!" Inuyasha jumped upon his feet. Who knows what that bastard would to his friends!

That's it for Chapta 4. Not really long, eh? Sry! _ Chapta 5, comin' up! (^_^);;
