Chapter 08
He was in panic. He had searched almost every line of the cars parked but there was no sign of anything. He prayed silently, to any gods who were willing to listen to him, to keep her save until he found her.
But sadly, there was no god who heard his desperate prayers.
There was a loud crash to his left, a spark of fire and pieces of wall flying. He grabbed his steering wheel so hard that his knuckles turned white as he raced towards it.
'Please do not let it be her,' his mind screamed.
He arrived at the scene. A large chuck of wall had gone; there was no sign of car. He crept carefully and looked down through the missing wall.
The SUV landed face first on a parked car; its shape did not even resemble its original shape anymore.
His throat dried and he felt his eyes moistened.
It was his fault.
He dashed towards an elevator. After it had not arrived in three seconds, he swore and dashed through the emergency stairs, running like mad for all he cared, until he arrived at the ground floor. He rudely pushed the gathering people aside and rushed to what remained of the SUV.
He forced the driver door open; ripping the seatbelt away and gently tugged the bloody figure out of the car. His world only consisted of him and the broken female in his arms then, not caring if his tears slowly flowed down his cheeks.
"You cannot die, Kagome. Not like this. Not when I have not met you in three months. Not when I have not told you that I love you." He mumbled softly, one of his trembling hands held her firmly against him and the other swept her raven lock away from her face.
Little did he know that at the time, she was shaken awake slightly by his trembling hands. Her hand made a move to tug his shirt, to tell him that she was alright, to tell him to stop crying, but she failed. Her energy was spent thoroughly and she passed out, but not before she heard his soft confession, not before he told her that he loves her.
