He had chosen.
He had chosen.
He had chosen Kikyo.
Kagome raced towards the well, sobbing her heart out. She ran past Sango, who was a sister to her, past Miroku, who was like a brother, past Shippo, who was like her son.
She didn't acknowledge them.
That was how heartbroken she was.
-~-
"Inu-Yasha," Kikyo spoke seductively.
The inu-hanyou was still staring at the well – where Kagome had left. He didn't notice Kikyo, whom he had chosen.
"Inu-Yasha," the clay miko (clay bitch, if preferred ^_~) said, louder this time.
His attention was still on the well.
"Inu-Yasha!" Kikyo shouted angrily. The said hanyou turned his gaze towards her, not even his entire head.
"Yeah?" He asked quietly.
"You have made the right choice. That inferior copy of mine was worthless – a mere obstruction. Now, we can finally be together, without that pestering little human girl-"
"Shut up."
Kikyo's eyes widened, then narrowed. "Why are you defending my copy?"
Inu-Yasha growled. "She is not your copy. She is Kagome. KAGOME is not worthless. KAGOME is not inferior to you. KAGOME is NOT an obstruction. And I am defending her because I care for her."
Kikyo was obviously angry. "But, Inu-Yasha, you may care for her, however, you chose ME."
-~-
Sango sat in Kaede's hut, beside Miroku, trying to calm the wailing Shippo. However, she was crying herself.
Miroku put a hand on the taijiya's shoulder, but said nothing.
All of them felt the weight of losing Kagome – knowing that she was probably going to stay in her time for good.
~~~~
Sango and Kagome were soaking in the hot spring.
"Say, Kagome-chan, now that Naraku is gone, what are you going to do?" Sango asked her 'sister'.
"Well, I still have to collect the remaining Shikon shards."
Sango stood up. A gust of wind blew by. Sango's hair was blown across her back, revealing a huge scar on her back.
Kagome stared at the scar. "Sango-chan still has to find Kohaku-kun, right?"
Sango stared at the full moon, merely nodding. "I wonder what he's doing right now..."
Kagome smiled. "Don't worry. We'll all help you find him."
Sango smiled, holding back the urge to cry. "Thank you."
~~~~
She broke down, recalling that memory – and so many others, shared with the person who was a sister to her – Kagome.
-~-
Inu-Yasha was silent for a moment. Kikyo smirked.
"You see? If you care for my copy-"
"KAGOME."
"Indeed. If you care for 'Kagome', then you care for me more, since you chose me. Even you know yourself that my co- 'Kagome', could never compare to me."
That was it. Something in Inu-Yasha snapped.
"And you know what!? Have you ever thought that maybe I'm different from you, and that I only chose you because I bear guilt? Hmm? Unlike you, I actually care if someone dies because of me. However, this case doesn't even call for it. Now that I think of it, Naraku killed you. You pinned me to a tree for 50 fucking years. And then you die, blaming it on me. Kagome comes along, freeing me from that blasted tree, and actually accepts me for who I am! And don't say you did – you wanted me to turn into a human so we could be together."
Kikyo was shocked, but regained expressionless mask as always. "Yes, but, Inu-Yasha. She left you in the end, because you chose me over her. She was being very selfish. If she actually cared about you, she would stay, and appreciate your choice."
Inu-Yasha growled at the undead miko (again, bitch, if you like). "Like you wouldn't if I chose her over you? Stop spouting shit, Kikyo. You're the one who's selfish. As for Kagome, she DOES care for me. And don't say anything to try to counter that. Because I know, and you know, that it's true."
Kikyo stared in stunned silence.
Inu-Yasha continued. "You know what, Kikyo? Now that I've thought it over, I made the wrong choice. Why should I spend eternity burning in hell with you, when I can live and enjoy life with Kagome? You know what else? Kagome isn't a copy. YOU'RE the copy. How can Kagome be a copy of herself? You are the copy of Kikyo – not Kagome."
By now, Kikyo was very pissed off. "You bastard..." she whispered. Grabbing her bow, she notched an arrow and aimed at Inu-Yasha.
Inu-Yasha smirked. "Feh. That's not going to work again, 'Kikyo'."
Before she (or it ^^) could fire, Inu-Yasha sliced neatly through the bow, cutting it in half. Kikyo gasped.
"Smell yah later, 'Kikyo'." Inu-Yasha yelled out, already leaping towards the well.
Kikyo fell to her knees. "Why? It's not supposed to end like this...!"
Pounding the ground with her fist, she sobbed without tears.
"What did I do to deserve this!?"
(Well Kikyo, let's start counting...)
==============================
Woo, there's chapter one.
I'm getting a lot of ideas for new fics. Currently, I have 15 that I have actually planned out. I'm not sure if I'm going to write them all, though ^_^;.
Well, hope you liked it. I made Kikyo a real bitch in here. ...Wait, that would be offensive to other bitches. Sorry to Kikyo fans, I can see what you like in the REAL Kikyo, but...I just don't see anything worthy in the clay version. Nope. When I typed 'she sobbed without tears', it's logic. I mean, she's clay, right? If you've watched episode 124, you know that Kikyo doesn't bleed. And that she's hollow. So, she doesn't have what can allow her to cry. =P
Oh, the flashback was from the second movie. If you haven't watched it – you should! It's really good. ^_^
Please review!
