Miyuki: Hey guys! Happy to see me?
Hitomi: …. You better! -deathly glare-
Miyuki: -shoves Hitomi out of the spotlight- Ehehehehe…. Anyways, I know you're expecting this to be the last chapter, but I'm sorry to spoil that wonderful dream of yours. It isn't the last chapter…. Unless you want it to be because I have no problem with that! No more writing for me then! But if you do want me to continue, then Aww Man! –laughs- Just kidding!
Here's the answer to the question that someone reviewed:
Calisto- She was spying on Inuyasha. It was just a flashback. She had a big gaping knife wound in her chest after she spied on Inuyasha. Oh and btw, thank you for your review!
Thank you all for all of your wonderful reviews!
I'm gonna stop my babbling and get on with the fanfic. Oh and I don't own Inuyasha so don't you dare pick up that phone to call your lawyer to sue me!
Hitomi: You better enjoy this! -hisses at ya'll with fangs sticking out-
Chapter 4 Bloody Tears
-Recap-
"Kikyo…" Inuyasha whispered.
He heard a rustle in the bush and turned around.
"Who's there?" Inuyasha snapped as he leaped into the air while having his hands on the tilt of his tetsusaiga. He landed in front of what seemed like a human. He grabbed the person's arm and turned the person around so that the person was facing him. (A/N: So many of the word person…. o.O)
"No…"
-End of recap-
"So… You saw, didn't you?" Inuyasha asked, shame washing over him.
The human faced him and looked into his golden orbs with sadness.
"Do I have to answer it?" the human responded, tears forming at the end of the human's eye.
"Kagome, I…" Inuyasha started.
"Inuyasha… Save it… I---" Kagome got cut off as blood splutter out of her mouth.
Inuyasha, smelling blood, turned his head as his eyes widen. He dashed over to Kagome who was now on the ground, on her knees.
"Don't come any closer… I can handle myself." Kagome said as she wiped the blood that was on her chin, away.
"Kagome, stop with the nonsense! Can't you see that you're hurt? You need to go to Kaede's." Inuyasha snapped, now worried and concerned about Kagome.
He put a hand on Kagome's arm, but pulled it away when he saw her flinch at his touch.
"I… don't need help…" Kagome said shakily.
"What are you talking about? Of course you do!" Inuyasha shouted.
"I already went to Kaede's…" Kagome said as she looked away.
"I don't care if you went to Kaede's already! You're still hurt!... Why are you even here? Aren't you suppose to be at Kaede's, resting?" Inuyasha asked.
He took a step and extended his arms out to reach Kagome.
"I said don't come any closer!" Kagome snapped.
Inuyasha stepped back, surprised at her tone. 'What has gotten into her?' Inuyasha thought curiously.
"Why do you care about me anyways? If I die, I know you'd be happy since I was always a burden to you. Look at the bright side! If I die, you wouldn't need to worry about getting me safe or getting me hurt anymore. You could go to hell happily with…. Kikyo… since you promised her." Kagome spat as she fell to the ground on her knees, hands covering her face. The shouting took a lot of energy out of her considering she had a big gaping wound on her chest.
"Kagome, please… I…" Inuyasha started to say, but couldn't finish.
"I don't want to hear it! You've done nothing, but hurt me! I can't take it anymore!" Kagome shrieked as tears started to fall down her face and onto the ground.
"Why? What have I done to deserve this? It pains me to see you with… Kikyo… And I know I can't break the bond that you both share… So why do I even bother trying?" Kagome said as more tears started to fall and onto the helpless ground.
Little did they both know, someone was lurking by, listening to their every word.
"Kagome, I never thought that…. that you felt like that. I'm… I…" Inuyasha said, trying his best to finish his sentence.
"You're what?" Kagome snapped.
Her once chocolate orbs filled with happiness and joy was now stained with coldness and a little hatred.
Before Inuyasha could say anything, a sacred arrow had suddenly struck Kagome. She spit blood out of her mouth and clutched the wound where the arrow was. (A/N: She's clutching the wound so therefore, she's clutching the arrow too…. Sorry if you don't understand. I'm bad at explaining!) She fell forward, but before she could fall, Inuyasha caught her.
'Arrow? It can't be...' Inuyasha thought.
Inuyasha looked up to the direction the arrow came from as his eyes widen.
"Kikyo…? Why?" Inuyasha breathed out.
Kikyo looked at him briefly and disappeared into thin air.
Inuyasha caught glimpse of her respond and his eyes widen in horror.
"Inu… yasha…." Someone seemed to say as Inuyasha came back to reality.
He looked down and remembered what had happened. Anger began to built, but he calmed down a bit when he felt a hand on his cheek.
"Kagome…"
"Inuyasha… Please don't…. get mad at…. Kikyo… I'm glad that…. this happened… and I'm glad…. that the Mistress Centipede…. pulled me into….. the well… If she didn't… I wouldn't be able…. to meet you and…. the others…" Kagome whispered, death almost taking over her.
"Kagome, stop talking like that!" Inuyasha snapped.
"Inuyasha… I'm sorry…. about earlier…. I didn't mean to… yell at you like that…" Kagome whispered softly.
"Kagome…" Inuyasha said, unable to speak, but only call her name.
"Before…. I go… I want you to… have this…" Kagome whispered once again as she took out something out of her pocket, weakly. Kagome handed it to Inuyasha as he took it.
He opened his palm to see the almost full Shikon Shards that they fought so hard to get.
"Kagome… No, I---"
"Inuyasha…. You deserve it….. I want you… to live a…. happy life… Don't worry…. about me….. Forget about… me and go… live happily with…. Kikyo…" Kagome interrupted him.
"Please… I don't want you… to be sad…. because of me… I'm sorry… for all… the things… I've done that made you… mad at me…" Kagome spoke, barely above a whisper that only a hanyou and youkai could hear.
The arrow was draining her life force, making it harder for Kagome to linger in this world.
"No! Stop it! You're not going anywhere!" Inuyasha shouted, finally found his voice.
He too could sense that it was time for Kagome to go, but being as stubborn as he is, didn't believe it.
"Inuyasha… you know as well as…. I do… that… it's time…. for me to go…" Kagome responded softly.
She was getting weaker and weaker as she laid there. She wanted so badly to end this horrible pain and nightmare. Her heartbeat started to slow down. One by one, it became slower and slower. It was getting harder for Kagome to breath. Kagome knew… that it was time for her to make her departure.
Kagome knew she had to go, but not before saying something she wanted to say years ago to Inuyasha.
"Inu… yasha… I have… to… go now…" Kagome yet again, spoke barely about a whisper.
"No! Kagome, you can't leave me!" Inuyasha yelled.
'This can't be happening! She can't go yet... This is all just a nightmare. Any minute now, I'll wake up and Kagome would be right next to me with the smile she always had on her cheery face.' But he knew deep inside, that it was all a lie. He knew that it couldn't be a nightmare for it felt so real. He also knew that if Kagome leaves… he'll be lonely just like 50 years ago…
Unshed tears were forming, but he couldn't let them fall if he wanted to be strong for him and Kagome.
"Inu… yasha…" Kagome whispered so softly that Inuyasha had to bend down to hear her.
"Inu… yasha…………"
As Kagome whispered her last words, she slowly began to close her eyes.
'Be happy... Inuyasha... Even if you don't know it, I'll always be watching you... You'll never be lonely... I won't let that happen because you deserve to live so much more with a smile on your face.'
Her hand, that Inuyasha was holding the whole time, dropped on the floor with a thud.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha shouted, hugging Kagome's limp body, tightly.
The tears that he was holding back was now falling down his face and into the bloody puddle, filled with his and Kagome's tears.
….. owari ….?
