She was gone. Kagome was gone. She had purified the jewel, made a wish, and she just disappeared.
Gone.
He held her as she slowly disappeared, vanished into thin air. The tears had finally stopped, but the feeling of emptiness remained. Unlike Inuyasha, he couldn't just wait five hundred years to find her. He was a mere human, he would grow old, he would die.
Now that she was gone, life just wouldn't be the same. The sky wouldn't be as blue, the food wouldn't be as satisfying.
He would remain by the well until he wasted away, without her there was just no point.
-----
Kagome cringed as she touched down in the well. She made everything right, then just disappeared, her quest finished. How could she have been so stupid to fall in love? She didn't belong there, in the past. Her future was here, in modern Tokyo.
For a while she just sat and cried in the bottom of the well. No one would ever compare to him, he ruined her for other men. She ached inside, knowing she would never see him again.
Her only regret was she never got to tell him...

That's my last drabble for feeling! It is a little weak, but that is all my mind is producing right now.
Please, no curses about the ending! I left it open for reader interpretation. Maybe it will get some brains flowing and we will have more contributions next week!
