InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Un-Haloed Angel ❯ The Unhaloed Angel ( Chapter 1 )
[ P - Pre-Teen ]
All of the had died when defeating Naraku.
Of course, they did get him, but he sent out one final attack, that wiped them all from existence. They all went to Heaven, were they all got halos and wings. Except for Naraku, who was in Hell getting a tan. Even Kikyo came, the real Kikyo. Inuyasha only thought of her as one of his best friends, nothing more, nothing less. Inuyasha was happy with Kagome being there, and Miroku was happy with Sango there. They were all happy.
Until one day, Sango had faded, leaving Miroku heart-broken. Then everybody she knew and cherished faded too. Including Kikyo. Kagome was upset; she did not fade with them. Finally, after thinking for a while, she decided to ask the one person who knew everything. She asked God.
"God, where are all of my friends?" She asked him.
"They have all been reincarnated, my dear." He responded.
"What about me?"
"Everybody gets a second chance. No more, no less."
"But that's not fair! The first time was Kikyo not I!" Kagome said.
"Do you see Kikyo here, Kagome?" He asked. Kagome thought for a second.
"Now that you mention it.... she's not here. But that still doesn't answer my question, what about me?"
"Kagome, you led two different lives. One in the future, one in the past. You got to experience two different lives, in one whole life time. You having Kikyo's soul made no difference. She's just getting her second chance, since she has her own soul now."
"But I wanna be with them!" Kagome protested.
"Well there is something that I can do for you…."
"What is it? I'll do anything!"
"First you'll lose your halo, that's what keeps you here. You will keep your wings so you can fly back and forth from Heaven and Earth." Kagome interrupted him.
"Wouldn't that seem weird, if I'm a human on the Earth with angle wings?"
"I never said you were going as a human. You're still going to be an angle, invisible to people most of the time."
"Most of the time?"
"Yes. People will see flashes of you, but only Inuyasha will be able to feel the comfort and advice you give him. It will comfort Inuyasha and his friends, knowing an angel is there watching them. Now for you're task."
"My task?"
"Aside from losing your halo, you'll have a job. Kagome, you are to be Inuyasha's angel."
"His angel?"
"Yes, you'll guide him and sometimes other people that you may recognize. Help Inuyasha throughout his life, and do what's right."
"How do I know what to do?"
"Go with your gut feeling. To help him make a decision, whisper in his ear, whisper in the wind or, if he says 'God, give me a sign!' Than give him that sign."
"Okay, I'll try my best."
"If you have any questions, just fly on up."
"Okay."
"And Kagome, before you go.... Kikyo and Inuyasha are meant to be together in this life." Kagome stopped in her tracks.
"Do not worry, Kagome. When he dies, he'll come back with the others and they'll all remember. It's up to his soul if he'll truly love Kikyo like the way he loved you. Now be off, he's about to be born." Kagome nodded and flew down to the Tokyo hospital, where a little silver hair baby was being born.
Kagome hovered above Inuyasha's mom. She was holding Inuyasha.
"Now.... what should I name him?..." His mother asked herself. Kagome leaned in and whispered in her ear:
'Inuyasha'
"How about….Inuyasha?" The baby started to giggle. "Then that's your name, Inuyasha." Kagome smiled.

7 years later
Kagome watched the emotions that went across Inuyasha's face. He was now seven.
Today, his mother died in a car accident.
Kagome watched as the little Inuyasha cried in front of a pond. She flew over to him.
'Shhhh....Don't cry... you're never alone. I'll always be here for you....' Little Inuyasha heard in his head.
"I'm never alone..." He whispered. He looked in the pond, and saw a reflection of a beautiful angel.... but she didn't have a halo. He gasped. He turned to look for the angel, but she was not there. "Did you hear her Mama? There's another angel watching over me, aside from you! 'Cept she didn't have a halo!" He said as he laughed joyfully. Two men approached Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, you are now going to be taken into custody of your older brother, Sesshomaru." One of the men said. Inuyasha frowned.
"Sesshomaru-nii-san?"
"Yes..." Inuyasha frowned even more. He didn't want to be with his older brother again. He didn't like the nothing-ness he felt when his brother was around.
'You'll never be alone...'
"Okay..." Inuyasha walked off with the men, with only one thought on his mind...
'I'll never be alone...'
~~~25 years later~~~
Kagome stared at Inuyasha's window from a tree branch right near his window. It was dark out, and the moon reflected her beautifully. At this point in his life, many things had happened.
Age 10- Met with Shippo a little boy who was two years younger. He was his neighbor.
Age 11- Met a girl named Kirara, very fond of cats.
Age 14- He met Miroku, a perverted boy whose grandfather was a monk
Age 15- He met Sango, a bug exterminator. (Became close friends with Kirara)
Age 17- He met Kikyo, and started dating a couple of months after that
Age 21- Miroku and Sango got married as soon as they were out of college
Age 25- Became an artist
Age 27- He married Kikyo
Inuyasha was currently 32 and it was his and Kikyo's 5th anniversary. Kagome had helped him through every step of his life, even if she didn't want to.
"If only I could be with him..." She said, her eyes saddening.
-----------------
Inuyasha stared outside his window. The window was wide open, and it was a beautiful night out.
It was the end of all the partying, (for their 5th anniversary) and he was exhausted. Kikyo had decided to stay with some friends for the rest of the night, leaving him by himself, giving him time to ponder about his life.
He looked up at the moon and thought about his deceased mother.
Then he thought about her.
The un-haloed angel.
She was his angel, the one without the Halo.
She was always there at the hardest points of his life. Always there for one second, gone the next. He always saw her when he needed her most. She was beautiful, more beautiful than Kikyo.
He'd always tried to paint her. But he barley ever got to see her, so the painting was never going to be completed. It was always half done.
Inuyasha thought about Kikyo.
He thought about how she was, sometimes cold and distant, sometimes warm and kind. Very unpredictable. That's what he liked about her.
'No wait a minute...' He thought.
"Everything I love about her, right? I do love her don't I?" Inuyasha asked himself.
"Maybe I don't love her completely. Sure I'm attracted to her but... then why don't I feel whole? How come this world seems so phony to me?"
It would never make any sense to him. No matter how many times he'd try to think it out, he could never feel better. Apart of him was missing, and he would never be able to find it.
He looked at the moon one more time. He froze up for a second. Right there, sitting in his own tree, there she was.
The un-haloed angel.
She had her eye's closed and looked like she was deep in thought.
Inuyasha made sure not to blink.
Kagome opened her eyes. She looked to see if Inuyasha was still awake, and then widened her eyes when she saw him staring at her, as if knowing she was there.
Inuyasha kept on staring. The angel was still there, not gone yet. The longest time he had ever seen her.
"Un-haloed angel..." He whispered. He reached out to her.
Kagome stared at him.
"Inuyasha..." She also started to reach out for him. But when they were so close to touching, Kagome's hand started to fade.
Kagome looked at her hand. It was fading.
'This has never happened before!' Her mind yelled. Slowly her whole body disappeared and everything went dark.
`````````````````````````````````````````````
Inuyasha just watched her fade away, kind of disappointed.
"I was so close, so close to touching her. The un-haloed angel." Inuyasha smiled to himself, the picture of her fresh in his mind. He ran over to the incomplete picture and started to paint her.
When he was all done, and the picture was all done and dry, Inuyasha went to bed, cradling his best masterpiece as he slept. Inuyasha dreamed of sleeping with her, holding her in his arms.
It was the first time in his life he actually felt complete.
```````````````````````````````````````
Kagome woke up, and noticed she was back in Heaven. She looked up and saw God waiting for her to wake up.
"What am I doing here?" Kagome asked God.
"You're all done Kagome. You don't need to Inuyahsa's guardian anymore."
"What do you mean? Is somebody else taking over?" She asked. God shook his head.
"Then why am I done?"
"I'm sorry to say this Kagome...but Inuyasha died in his sleep last night." Kagome stood there, shocked. In a quiet voice she asked,
"Is he coming back here?" God nodded.
"Remember though. Don't be too happy. He might end up rejecting you. It's his choice. He'll be here soon, with his old and new memories." God said. Kagome looked around nervously.
"Oh yeah, here's your halo back." God snapped his fingers, and Kagome's halo appeared over her head once again.
"Meet Inuyasha down there, that's where I'll send him" God said as he pointed in the direction he was talking about.
Kagome nodded and flew off, very nervous.
```````````````````````````````````````````
Inuyasha never woke up the next morning. Kikyo had come home, to find him asleep on the bed with a beautiful painting clutched in his arms. She shook him. She tried everything to wake him up.
So she called the doctor. The doctor announced him dead.
Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara and Kikyo were devastated by the loss of Inuyasha. Nobody understood how he died. He was perfectly healthy. (Yes, it was a mysterious death, for now, let's go with heartache.)
The funeral was beautiful nonetheless. Instead of selling the painting, Kikyo requested that Inuyasha was buried with it.
Inuyasha, only 34 years old, had died and was now official buried with it.
He was buried with his Un-haloed angel.
```````````````````````````````````
Inuyasha floated around, stunned at what happened. He looked for Kagome. He needed her comfort, he needed her love. He saw her, and she was standing right there for him.
"Inuyasha..."
"Kagome!" He shouted as he ran into hold her.
"You do not know how hard it was without you in my life."
"You do not know how hard it was watching you live without me, Inuyasha." Kagome looked at him. Inuyasha looked at her, and smiled.
"So you finally got your halo back?"
"Yup!"
`````````````````````````````
Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kirara and Kikyo's lives all eventually ended. Things went back to the way they were, everybody happy and together.
Miroku could hit on Sango for all of eternity.
Sango could slap Miroku all eternity.
Shippo and Kirara could be with each other forever.
Kikyo could finally stay friends with Inuyasha.
Kagome and Inuyasha found a way back to each other.
They were going to spend forever.... together.
