“So your friends came.” Hissed Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha stared at the bushes then looked at his half-brother. “Don’t look at me! I had no clue they were here!”
“Yeah, I believe that!” he said sarcastically. “Oh well, it just means I get more of an audience!”
“Audience?” Repeated Inuyasha. “You never said anything about fighting!” he growled.
“Inuyasha.” Whispered Kagome.
“Your human wants to speak to you. I’ll give you a few moments before I attack.”
Inuyasha looked at Kagome, “What?” he said a little harshly.
Kagome hung her head down, “So it’s not true.”
She sighed and silent tears started to fall down her cheeks. “What’s not true?” he asked, his voice was gentle.
She looked up and he could see his reflection in her teary eyes as she gazed up at him. “That you love me?” she said in an almost inaudible whisper.
“Shippo, why did you yell?” Sango asked as she stepped out of the bushes.
“I-I didn’t mean to! It was an a-a-accident!”
“An accident? Yelling isn’t usually an accident.” Said Miroku wisely.
“I was happy to see Kagome!” he huffed, “I wasn’t thinking!”
“It’s OK Shippo, but next time try not to yell.” Said Shippo as she shot Miroku a look.
“I wasn’t going to arguing.” He whispered into Sango’s ear as he placed his hand on her backside.
“Really, Miroku?” she fluttered her eyelashes and the swiftly lifted up her hand and made contact with the monks face.
Shippo sighed, “See, it’s him that you should be upset with.”
Sango sighed, “Sorry Miroku but you really have to learn!” she looked at Shippo, “Yes, but he didn’t get us caught.”
Shippo sighed. At least Miroku got slapped, not me! He laughed inwardly and followed the two as the walked to Inuyasha’s side.
“Inuyasha?” Kagome said when he hadn’t spoken for a few minutes.
He looked into her eyes, but he couldn’t bring himself to say the word. I admitted it to Sesshomaru, now why can’t I tell her?
“Time is up.” Said Sesshomaru and he leapt at Inuyasha his claws flashing in the moonlight.
“Run!” yelled Inuyasha as Sesshomaru landed behind him.
“I won’t leave!” She said defiantly.
Damn! He couldn’t make sure Kagome was OK and fight Sesshomaru without his Tetsusiaga. Why did I give you up? He sighed and answered his own question. I need her, that’s why!
He grabbed Kagome about the waist, and jumped out of the way just as Sesshomaru lashed his whip.
“Really Kagome, I can’t stand you getting hurt! Please run!”
Kagome nodded, “I’ll let you fight him, but I’m not going far!”
He nodded, she was stubborn and he knew that was stopping her from doing what he demanded. “OK, but stay out of his way.”
“I will.” She turned to leave but stopped, “Even if you can’t say it, I can. I love you.” She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him full on the lips.
The world seemed to do a flip-flop, and he felt like he was walking on clouds. It’s different from what it felt like with Kikyou, not better though, just different. He could have stood there all day, but as soon as it began, it stopped.
“Go get him Inuyasha.” She whispered as she walked away.
He stood there stunned for a moment, but he knew he couldn’t just stand there. He Quickly leapt out of the way as the whip snapped at the place where his head had been.
“I will kill you, with or without the Tetsusiaga.” He yelled as he leapt at his foe. “Iron Weaver Soul Stealer!” However, Sesshomaru sensed the attack and leapt out the way as Inuyasha sliced the air.
“Really, stop trying. It’s pathetic. There is no way you can beat me, even with the Tetsusiaga you couldn’t beat me.”
“I never tried hard enough!”
Sesshomaru rolled his eyes, “You tried, but could never succeed.” He put his whip away, “But I will defeat you, I promise!” He flexed his fingers, and Inuyasha could see the green gas rise as he lunged forward, “Want to try my poison gas!”
Inuyasha jumped out of the way but not in time as Sesshomaru got his shoulder.
”Really, why continue to stand there when you have no choice but to die?”
Inuyasha held his shoulder. I can already feel the poison. It hurt and his breathing was becoming shallow.
“After you’re dead, I will kill the human…the one you love.” He laughed.
“No.” Inuyasha said weakly.
“You’re right.”
He lifted a hand and Kagome felt herself being pulled. She ground her feet into the ground, but it was no use; she was pulled to Sesshomaru.
“I will kill her before you die!”
Kagome looked in terror at her friends, but Sesshomaru sensed her look and with a wave of his hand, they were trapped by bars.
Nooo! She screamed in her head as she looked at Inuyasha.
He could barely lift his head; he was so weak. I have to get to Kagome! He willed his legs to move, but they wouldn’t listen.
“Don’t even try to move, it’s pointless.”
He tightened his grip on her neck and she gasped. “Inuyasha!” she whispered.
As she spoke his name he felt power surge through his body. He lifted up his head. “Let her go!” he growled.
Sesshomaru stared, “What?” He shouldn’t be able to move. He looked at his claws, but he could still see the poison leaking out of them. I’ll try her. He thought to him self as he lifted his claws to Kagome’s throat.
“Don’t you dare Sesshomaru!” Inuyasha hissed. His legs started to move and he rushed at Sesshomaru. “Let her go!” But, as he reached him, Sesshomaru pierced Kagome’s throat with his claws.
“Oops.” He smiled, “Was that your lover?”
Inuyasha stared at Kagome as she limply fell to the ground. He couldn’t believe it. He knelt down. Why didn’t I tell her when I had the chance? He pounded the ground. “I wish I had the chance…to tell you I love you.”
