Chapter VIII: Fate

This is it, my original ending and to this story. My first story I've ever made is coming to an end. I hope you like it, enjoy!

The words of the old man kept ringing in his ears, " It will kill you." InuYasha began to tremble as he heard this. InuYasha said, "After all this time, this stupid curse is going to kill me!" The old man looked down, as he couldn't look him, for it was true. InuYasha looked up and said, "Right now, I don't care what happens to me. I just want to save Kagome." The old man said, "Then let us begun making the cure."

Time Passed, day became night, night became day. Each day the worked on the cure, the curse moved through his body. At last, it was complete. Each ingredient was cooked and mixed together and it made it, the elixir of life, the cure to death. The old man smiled at InuYasha as he left. InuYasha stop for a moment and said, "Thanks old man, you really help me out. I hope one day, we meet again." InuYasha began his journey back to Kaede's village where Kagome's body rests. As he walked, he recalled all he went through. He never thought that in the end, he would die. InuYasha spoke, "Kagome, please don't be mad if I'm gone when you come back." He looked in the stars and saw a shooting star. He made a wish, "All I want is to see Kagome alive again."

Time passed and InuYasha's body was almost completely covered in the curse. At last he made it Kaede's village. Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kaede where still there. They looked at InuYasha with terror, as they saw the blackish purple curse surround his body. Miroku said, "InuYasha, what happened to you!" InuYasha said, "I have the cure, the elixir of life." Everyone was in awe. Sango asked, "What happened to you?" InuYasha replied, " I've been cursed and soon this curse will kill me. Let me tell you me story. I found a temple where I could make the cure. But, to prove myself I had to defeat Naraku as a human. I had a new sword forged with the tips of Kagome's arrows as the steel. I defeat Naraku with the of Kagome, she shoot an arrow at him and killed him." Miroku interrupted and said, "Impressive, you defeated Naraku as a human. I thought you did it as a demon. Thanks, now that you've done that, the wind tunnel is gone. InuYasha began again, " Anyway, I had to get the ingredients. I had to go to heaven to get most of them. On the way I got cursed by a demon who lived in a swamp. I died to get into Heaven. I met Kagome again there. I got the ingredients and left. Miroku interrupted again, "So, you died for Kagome. That was noble of you. You really love her." InuYasha began, "The gods gave me my life back and I was headed for the next ingredient, the fires of Hell. I got out Hell just in time. Naraku was there and almost killed me. Now, before I die, I have to save Kagome."

InuYasha walked up to the Shrine where Kagome's body was. Her body was not buried and yet it did not rot. Kagome's body was so holy that she didn't decay. InuYasha put the vile of potion to her lips and watch the bottle empty. Now he had to wait. InuYasha sat by her side. Hours past and he gave up hope. He left the shrine. He went into the forest and sat by the tree he was pinned to. He thought about what happened, all he did for nothing. Then he her a voice, "Inu..Yasha?" He looked over in awe and saw her. He walked up to her and felt her face. Her face was warm. She was alive. A tear ran down his face. He succeeded.

Now the cursed had fully engulfed InuYasha's body. InuYasha was gone. Now, InuYasha was a cursed demon. Kagome looked at him and cried out. Miroku, Sango, and Shippo came and saw Kagome and cursed InuYasha. They fought back at him, but nothing worked. Kagome knew what she had to do. She knew he would want her to. She drew back an arrow and shot InuYasha in the heart. He was pinned down on the tree. Kagome came running toward him, tears running down her face. She hugged him and said, "I'm so sorry." Everything went white and Only InuYasha and Kagome where there. InuYasha said, "No Kagome, thank you. I couldn't forgive myself if I did anything to hurt you. Kagome, never forget, I'll always love you no matter what." Everything went back to normal. Kagome looked at InuYasha said, "Good-bye." She kissed him and left. As she left, InuYasha's Kimono turned white and began to wake up. He mumbled, " Ka..gom..e?" She turned around and saw life in InuYasha's eyes. He said, "I'm glad your safe. Now that your back, maybe we can be together." Kagome smiled and said, "I'd like that." InuYasha said, "All I remember hearing was what you wrote to me. I will always exist in your heart." Kagome said, "I always will…forever."
