Chapter 3

"Kagome! Are you alright?"

"no…." she said in a small voice.

He looked at her. Her whole face was contorted in horror and terror. Then he looked around the room he saw Kagome's family all there…dead.

"Inuyasha, we need to hunt down and kill this murderer" she said in a strange tone, which Inuyasha hadn't heard before.

Terror?...no, anger?….no, horror?…on, fear?….no, sadness?...no. Man I'm starting to get a headache from all this thinking… hummmmm…! I've got it! It's the tone people use when they have no will to live! Yay.. That was a hard one to pick. Hahaha---- oh no!

"Kagome! You still have a reason to go on living."

"What?..." she said in a dull, bored voice.

"ME! Kagome you have to live for ME."

"That, Is not, a good enough reason.." she said in the dull, bored voice.

"Wh-what?"

"I don't want to have to live out my day's living for a back stabbing, two–timing, immature little half demon!"

He was shocked he knew that the he had bad points but he thought that Kagome had seen through all the toughness to the soft person inside him.

"But Kagome I thought that you would stay with me forever?"

"Things change"

"Kagome I came as soon as I heard you were in trouble. I still have to protect you"

"You don't HAVE TO do anything Inuyasha, you're free to die any time now and join Kikyou in Hell!" she shouted "I'm not holding you back any more" she said in a small voice.

"Before I go Kagome, let me heal you"

He stepped forward.

"LEAVE ME ALONE AND NEVER COME BACK! ITS BECAUSE OF YOU COMING HERE THAT MY WHOLE FAMILY IS DEAD!"

He took some steps back

"JUST….LEAVE…..ME….ALONE!"

"Bu- but I--"

"LEAVE!"

"As you wish"

was all he said and he left. He had learned (from millions and millions of 'sit's) when it was time to fight with Kagome and when to back down to avoid serious injury or death from Kagome. As he walked back to the bone well he saw a rock still red hot and moulded into a persons face. I wonder if that girl is still ok. He walked to the bone well and scratched a note to Kagome on it with his claw.

Kagome,

I know you will want to tare this place down but think of Shippo he thinks of you as he mummy, and Sango she's like a sister to you, Moriku like a brother, kinda more like a perverted brother. I don't know what you think of me but I know I like you. So come home.

From Inuyasha

He left without a backwards glance trusting Kagome to make up her own mind as to come or not.

Had he not been so caught up on how Kagome HAD to come back he would have noticed the demonic aura that had replaced her pure one, her scent had changed and had he turned around he would have seen the gleam of triumph in her miss matched eyes.

One eye so obviously not hers. Red like fire, the other eye was her usual eye colour.

Sky blue.
