Chapter 11
His First Love
"I wonder what's wrong with Inuyasha," Sango asked. "He was acting really weird"
"And why'd he walk off like that. He acted like he didn't even see us."
Miroku and Sango sat outside of Kaade's hut pondering what had left the half- demon speechless. Sango jumped up and began to pace. Hmm...I wonder what made Inuyasha take off like that... Look at Miroku. He's so cute. She smiled to herself.
"What are you smiling about?"
"Huh? Oh nothing," she said brushing her earlier thoughts to the back of her mind. "I think I'll go look for Inuyasha. He can't have gone too far." Plus, she thought, a walk would be nice. Sango took off towards the forest. She followed the path Inuyasha had taken and came up on him just as he kissed Kikyo.
"Inuyasha, how could you! How could you do that to Kagome? She's your mate!" Sango's face was covered in angry tears. At that moment she thought about all the women Miroku had asked to bare his children. Lecherous monk. How could I be so stupid? He doesn't love me at all!
Inuyasha took a step towards her. "It's not what you think. I...I just..."
"You just what,"she demanded. "You just wanted to get back at Kagome! You called her Kikyo!" A slow smile crept across the dead priestesses face. So he still loves me, she thought. He hasn't forgotten. I will always be his first love.
Sango saw the smile and quickly slapped it from the clay woman's face. "Don't smile! Don't you dare smile at Kagome's pain. You are nothing but a clay shell and you," she turned to Inuyasha, " you are nothing but," she hesitated. Then, " You are nothing, but a cheating half-demon! Kagome should have left you anchored to the tree she nailed you to!"
Sango lowered her voice, "Go Inuyasha. Be with Kikyo. You deserve each other. The dead and the heartless."
Sango's words cut Inuyasha to the core. Not once had she ever called him a half-demon. Not once had she ever accused him of being heartless towards Kagome. Not once had she ever made him fill so small and wounded...
Inuyasha
Inuyasha looked into Kikyo's eyes and saw emptiness. He thought, I always thought she was so beautiful, but she can't hold a candle to my Kagome. Out loud he said, " I can't believe that I ever got the two of them confused."
"Inuyasha, what are you talking about?" The priestess stood, bow in hand-ready for battle, waiting for Inuyasha's reply. He only looked at her.
Finally he reached out and took her hand. There so cold. Dead. "Kikyo, I have to tell you something."
"What is it?" She was so calm that Inuyasha almost decided not to tell her.
" I have to tell you goodbye. For good."
"The last time you told me goodbye, you were running off to fight Naraku. You didn't mean it then or else you wouldn't be standing here talking to me yet again." Her words had no meaning. They were just ice cold phrases that hung in the air.
"This," he said, letting her hand drop, " I mean it. I will not see you again after this. I am married to Kagome and..."
"So you finally got the hint, Inuyasha?" she laughed as she said. It was a joke that only she was privy to.
"Don't interrupt me." he picked her hand back up. "I love my mate and wife and it would only hurt her if I stayed in touch with you. So goodbye." He dropped Kikyo's hand and turned to leave.
Quick as lightning she grabbed him and spun him back around. "One last Inuyasha. I truly did love you."
"I know," he said. "One final kiss, just to say goodbye." They kissed. I thought that this would bring me memories of our love, but it doesn't. It makes me miss Kagome so much. I have to go to ...
Sango burst through the brush. "Inuyasha, how could you! How could you do this to Kagome?"
Sorry it took so long to update, but I specifically asked for 10 reviews and I finally got them.
P.S.: My internet hasn't been working for the past two weeks so that stopped the process too.
