Chapter 5-Pride (No we don't own any of the Inucharacters, but we do own the plot so ha) Hey guys, Yeah, I'm back…"thank you, thank you, thank you very much". LOL Anyways, I will soon be visiting Saturn and I'm so, so happy, but sadly I won't be writing during that time (first few weeks of April). I did however just finish 2 poems on so check em out and tell me what u think. TTFN-Neptune

Some days later and Sango and Miroku have yet to return. Inu Yasha complains about searching for the jewel shards and Kagome is getting really annoyed.

"Come on wench," Inu Yasha yells.

This is the last straw for the 20-year-old miko. "Inu Yasha, you good for nothing baka, sit. Sit, sit, sit, sit sit and sit boy," she yells loudly.

Inu Yasha mutters his curses into the ground. "Looks like I did make the right choice with Kikyou," he says as he stands up from his hole.

Kagome's eyes build up in tears. "Inu Yasha, you dumb baka. I hat you. Sit boy!" she yells before running off.

Sesshoumaru walks through the forest following 'his' miko's scent. "Inu Yasha, you dumb baka. I hat you. Sit boy!" reaches his sensitive ears.

'This will definitely be easier now,' he thinks with much satisfaction as he begins to run toward Kagome.

Kagome runs as fast as her legs will allow. She's tired of putting up with Inu Yasha and all of … and fighting. She stops in front of a small, but deep lake. She's bathed so many times in it. Closing her eyes, she dives in the icy cold water.

Sesshoumaru runs faster as he sees Kagome. He sees her in front of a hot spring. 'What is she doing?' he asks himself. He knows the waters are cold and is sure that she knows it too. She dives in the water. His heart skips a beat as he pushes himself to go faster praying to god that he'd get there in time.

Kagome's mind soars as pictures of her friends, and family come up. She realizes that her life isn't out lived and now struggles to reach the top as the cold water nips at her delicate skin. She doesn't make it…
