Kikyo had Kagome by the throat, with her gasping for air, hanging over the edge of a cliff.
"I am tired of you interfering! Inuyasha will be mine!"
Kagome couldn't speak and just clawed at Kikyo's fingers, trying to ease the pain throbbing through her.
"What does he even see in you? You're a pathetic reincarnation of me."
Kikyo paused and looked at Kagome, struggling for breath, and trying to scream.
"Are you trying to scream for Inuyasha? He won't come, you don't matter to him!"
Kagome stopped struggling so much, and felt tears well up in her eyes, stinging them and blurring her vision of Kikyo trying to kill her.
"You know he doesn't love you, you were there! You saw us together!"
Kagome gave up completely. She simply closed her eyes.
"NOW DIE!"
With a simple gesture, Kagome was tossed off the cliff. She did not scream, she merely fell. Kikyo watched Kagome hit the ground before laughing and walking away.
Inuyasha watched in pure terror as Kagome died right before him.
"Now you see Inuyasha, your selfishness has ended the life of your precious Kagome. The women who stayed with you through these years, the one who comforted you, the one who saved your life and put her own at risk! YOU KILLED HER INUYASHA!" Kagura screamed.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Inuyasha yelled. He picked up his mighty sword and with one swipe, destroyed the last remains of Kagura, but no before she said, "Do you still love Kikyo Inuyasha?" and with that, Kagura was gone.
Inuyasha was furious; he crushed the mirror taking Kana with it. But he could not stay furious, for once he got back to camp, he cried and screamed at himself for letting Kagome die.
How could I let her die? Why did I betray her like that? Do I still love Kikyo? No, of course not…I can't, she killed Kagome!
"Inuyasha, what happened!" came the voices of Miroku and Sango.
"She…I didn't mean to…I loved her…she…." Stuttered Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, tell us, what happened?"
"Kagome is…dead…"
"No! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO INUYASHA?" Sango cried.
"She saw…me…Kikyo….together…"
"INUYASHA YOU BASTARD!"
"Kikyo…she…threw Kagome…off…the cliff…"
"NO, PLEASE, NO!" Sango collapsed into Miroku and sobbed. Miroku as well began to tear. Kagome was the best person they had known, she was honest, caring, and a willing to risk her life for all of them. And she was gone.
"Inuyasha, where is her body?" Sango managed to ask.
Inuyasha was silent for a minute, and then got up and began to walk into the forest hoping to find the familiar cliff he saw in the mirror. Sango and Miroku knew where he was going, and slowly followed behind, with Sango still sobbing.
When they arrived at the cliff where Kagome died, they saw nothing, no Kagome, nothing.
"Inuyasha, are sure this is the place?" Miroku asked.
"Yes damnit!"
"YOU DON'T NEED TO SNAP AND MIROKU INUYASHA! HE DIDN'T BREAK KAGOME'S HEART!" Sango yelled.
Inuyasha was silent he had nothing to say to her. It was all true.
"Are you three looking for someone?" came a dark and too familiar voice.
"Naraku, what do you want?" Snarled Inuyasha.
"I would like to introduce you to my new slave…"
Naraku took a step to the side and revealed dark haired woman with her head bent down. She was dressed in a simple black kimono with a gray vine wrapping around the bottom with a blood red rose painted at the top. Her arms draped in silk grey cloth.
"Who the hell are you?"
In his cold dark voice, Naraku spoke, "I call her, Kagome."
At that the dark haired woman lifted her head and took one of the swords latched on her side and attacked.
"Kagome…" Inuyasha whispered…
