You'll be waiting in vain.

His blood was gone now, and she looked up at him, his eyes were red with warning but also with something else. She felt fire rush through her again, but she wasn't sure if it was because of the transformation of soul or his eyes.

She kept waiting for the pain to end.

Now she was having chills and fever, and she shivered. She gritted her teeth as the pain was making waves again and her throat burning with need.

She cried out, her hands clutching to his armor.

Her head was throbbing; she just wanted it to stop now. She knew there would be pain; you don't get anything for free. She wondered if she would survive this and then she wondered if she would survive him after the fact.

Her thoughts went to Inuyasha. This was his fault.

She cried out again as her vision spun and she saw black dots.

God, she wished someone would save her.

The dragon breathed fire.

"Help" She managed to get out. But no one was coming. Inuyasha was dead, Kouga was married, and Miroku couldn't help, not now that Sesshomaru was there.

She looked up at him again.

If she was waiting for him to save her, like her waiting for someone to love her, she would be waiting in vain. Tears poured like hot lava down her face.
