Chapter Eight
"Life isn't fair. It's just fairer than death, that's all"
-William Goldman-
A moment of fear, rage and pain dominated the young miko's power, her mighty emotions took control. A pink light engulfed the horizon, then disappeared just as quickly as it came.
Kagome was gone.
"Kagome?"
Youkai Inuyasha, ran around wildly, trying in vain to search for his miko. Blind tears blurred his eyes, as realization hit him hard.
The only woman in the world who had ever even looked at him like he was human, was gone. What he would give right now to become a hanyou once again, he would do anything to bring his Kagome back.
She loved him, cared for him, confided in him, she was his first true friend.
She was gone.
"KAGOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"
"Kagome? Is that you?"
The young miko, opened her groggy eyes, to find herself at the bottom of the well, back in her own time. Her mother peered down at her form the edge of the well, worry written all over her face, and Kagome had never been happier.
"Mom?"
Tears flooded her eyes, in adamant joy.
She was home now, safe and sound.
She climbed the ladder in a flurry, and jumped into her mother's arms, never feeling so secure in her premature life.
Her mom, stumbled back in surprise, and was immediately worried, when she saw that her only daughter was covered in blood. She ushered the trembling girl into the house, and lay her down, unharmed in her own bed.
"I'm home"
A small smile came to Kagome, and after feeling as though she would never smile again, it was well welcomed.
"Sweetie…..what happened? Look at you, you're a mess? Where's Inuyasha?"
"Oh mom"
Her voice broke as tears poured down. Her mother immediately dropped the subject. And just held her daughter for comfort.
It was as if time was frozen for Kagome, and all of her memories disappeared, and she was left with the happy understanding that she was home, and that no one could get to her.
No one.
Two weeks had past by since Kagome's disappearance, and Inuyasha had in no way recovered. Kaede and the rest of the gang, had been at his side ever since they found him in the wounds, bleeding to death, mentally and physically .
He lay in bed, wounds dressed and disinfected, on his way to becoming healed. But that was only the physical aspect of his injuries.
He could be heard screaming his heart out at night, as if he was in mortal pain, crying out desperately for Kagome to come back.
But she never did.
Kaede took him out once in a while, to the field to go and relax, and that was about the only time in the day he would keep quiet.
He would just sit there and stare at the flowers, a dismal smile on his face.
They all feared for his life and dared not leave him alone, afraid of what he might do to himself, without Kagome, Inuyasha just wasn't the same.
"Do ye know what might have happened for Inuyasha to behave this way?"
Inuyasha was now asleep, and the whole band thought it would be a perfect time to get explanations out in the open, for whenever they even dared to say Kagome's name while in Inuyasha's conscious presence, he would fly into an uncontrollable rage.
They refused to take the risk again.
"When Miroku, and I woke up, there was human Inuyasha's head, right next to where Kagome had been sleeping, he must've lost control. She runs away, he chases her, she leaves, and he goes insane"
Sango had been the first to find the extra Shikon shards, and the remains of the snake demon. And Miroku had found Inuyasah, in the middle of a clearing drenched in blood and tears.
They had not known what to do but go back home.
"We thought that you might have seen Kagome going to the well"
Kaede shook her head in dismay and replied.
"No, no one has been through here since you left us"
"Not even a demon!!"
Shippo piped up from beside Inuyasha, he was determined to get Inuyasha better, for when Kagome comes back. He was only still a child, and did not understand the seriousness of the situation, he just wanted his mom back.
They all remained silent the same thought concurrently running through their minds.
Kagome come back .
