Recap:

"Gotcha!" She smirked triumphantly as she ran east. She just couldn't get the nagging voice in her head to shut up. It was whispering to her that something was wrong and not to go looking for them, but she pushed those thoughts aside and decided to concentrate on finding her partners. She stopped, eyes wide as she took in the horrible sight before her.

She should've listened to the nagging voice.

Now:

Chapter 3:The Death of a Great Theif

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Corpses littered the field and the grass was stained a sickly red. Kagome swallowed the lump in her throat and slowly walked further into the carnage filled clearing. She almost choked at the horrible smell of death that lingered around the scene. Suddenly she caught onto Youko's scent and ran towards the smell. She stopped abruptly and gasped. She ran forward and fell to her knees next to Youko's body.

"N-no! Youko, wake up!"Kagome cried, shaking his shoulders, tears streaming down her face. Youko's eyes fluttered open and he looked towards Kagome.

"K-Ka-Kagome,"he coughed out.Kagome moved him so that his head rested in her lap.

"Shhhh, i'm here."she whispered, moving a few strands of hair away from his eyes. Youko stared up at her.

"K-Kagome, I-I'm sorry,"he said."K-Kuronue, h-he's gone." Kagome's eyes widened. Kuronue was dead?

"Youko, don't say any more, it's okay! You'll be fine."she exclaimed with fake happiness. However, she could tell that Youko could see right through her false hope.

"Kagome,"he started."Y-you know I'm n-not going to m-make it."It was getting hard for him to speak.

"No!Don't you talk like that!You're going to be okay!"Kagome cried."I can't lose you."she whispered.

"Kagome, please don't b-be sad when I l-leave this world."he said.

"NO!Youko you can't leave me!"she exclaimed. Youko's eyes closed and his breathing became even more labored.With his last breath, he whispered...

"I will always love you Kagome." and with that, Youko Kurama, died an honorable death in the arms of the one he had come to love.

"Youko?Youko?YOUKO!No!No!You can't go!YOU JUST CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE!"she screamed, clutching Youko's lifeless body to her. She gasped as his body began to become transparent and he started to levitate out of her arms.

"No!"Kagome shot up to pull him back down, but her eyes widened as her hands went right through him. Youko's body rose higher into the air and became more transparent. "NO!" When Youko's body completely disappeared, she dropped to her knees, gazing at the sky with wide eyes, arms stretched abover her as ifshe were about to grab her lost love. She slammed her fists into the ground, creating two large craters, her head bowed. It started to rain, not hard like a storm, but gentley, as if heaven were crying for her, trying to comfort her. Her tears mixed with the rain as she repeatedly took her anger out on the ground beneath her until her knuckles were raw and bleeding.

"WHY?WHY DID YOU TAKE HIM FROM ME?WHY!"she screamed towards the sky."I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO TELL HIM I LOVED HIM BACK!DAMN YOU!"Kagome collapsed in the mud, crying hysterically.

But nobody would know that she was ever there. For after spending a few hours crying where Youko's body had last been, she went to her era and sealed the well.

And like her scent, Kagome Higurashi was washed away from the Fuedal Era.

Never again to be associated with feelings other than sadness...or so she thought.

For the next day, Kagome would be moving in with her loud mouthed cousin,

Yusuke Uremeshi.
